However, if one thought about it carefully, it was not strange. The battlefield imprint of Myriad Devil Ridge was exchanged from the War Merit Pavilion. Although it could only last for four hours, it still had the effect it should have.
In a sense, it was the real battlefield imprint of Myriad Devil Ridge.
It was naturally not a problem to monitor it through the restrictions of Myriad Devil City.
The woman should have been to Myriad Devil City many times. She flew in a direction with ease.
Soon, she landed in a small courtyard.
She turned to look at Tong Shuyao. "I'll heal my injuries first. You two can go." As she said this, she gave Tong Shuyao a look.
"Yes, Martial Aunt!" Tong Shuyao replied respectfully, understanding tacitly.
After the woman left, Tong Shuyao looked at Lu Ye. "Junior Brother Taibai, this is your first time in Myriad Devil City. Do you want me to show you around?"
Lu Ye wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll have to trouble Senior Sister Tong."
"Let's go, you're welcome."
The situation in Myriad Devil City was roughly the same as Vast Sky City. At this stage, the number of cultivators in Myriad Devil City was not too many, which was within the normal range.
Occasionally, one could see some Divine Ocean Realm cultivators flying around.
Tong Shuyao led Lu Ye around the City of Ten Thousand Demons for a while before saying, "Junior Brother Tai Bai, although you were born in the Wushuang Continent, now that you've come to the Nine Provinces and entered the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge, you'll have to join the State Guards in the end. Once you join the State Guards, you'll be able to make contributions and gain military merits.
She had received a hint from the woman before. This trip was not only to monitor Lu Ye, but also to find a way to persuade him.
To her, she naturally hoped that this Junior Brother Taibai could join the State Guard and serve under Martial Aunt.
Although the woman could force Lu Ye to join the State Guard with her methods and cultivation, a forcibly picked melon would not be sweet. It was better if he was willing.
"Senior Sister Tong is right." Lu Ye answered with his mouth, but he was thinking in his heart. In the current situation, he could not leave even if he wanted to. It was really troublesome.
Tong Shuyao followed him like a dog skin plaster. He could not get rid of her even if he wanted to. If he acted rashly, she would immediately send a message to the woman.
He was puzzled. "There are so many talents in the Myriad Demons Ridge. Why did your Uncle-Master pick me?"
"Martial Aunt's eyes are as sharp as torches!" Tong Shuyao giggled, her face slightly red. She couldn't tell Lu Ye that she was the one who had begged for this.
Lu Ye thought that it was because of his good performance that caught the eye of the woman at the Spirit Sea Realm. Little did he know that in the end, it was his handsome appearance that got him in trouble.
Although Tong Shuyao and the woman were Martial Aunts, they were as close as mother and daughter. Tong Shuyao had begged her in the tent, and the woman had naturally agreed.
In addition, Lu Ye's previous performance was indeed not bad, and his cultivation was sufficient, so it was more than enough for him to join the State Guards.
She originally thought that Lu Ye would be grateful to her for personally coming forward to recruit him, but who would have thought that Lu Ye would not directly reply to her, which made her very worried.
"I want to go to the Tianji Hall to buy some things for cultivation. Senior Sister Tong, please take me there," Lu Ye said.
"This way." Tong Shuyao bounced up and down with her hands behind her back. She seemed to be in a good mood. From the looks of it, those True Lake Realm cultivators who had died earlier should not have a close relationship with her.
Soon, they arrived at a Tianji Hall. Lu Ye pressed his hand on the Tianji Pillar and entered the War Merit Pavilion. He then exchanged for a Myriad Devil Ridge battlefield imprint.
Only then did he calm down.
Walking out of the Tianji Hall, he saw Tong Shuyao waiting for him. Lu Ye stepped forward and said, "Senior Sister Tong, may I trouble you to tell your Martial Aunt that I am willing to join the State Guards and serve under your Martial Aunt?"
He had thought it through. Since some things could not be avoided, he could only face them head-on.
Moreover, looking at it from another perspective, this might not be a bad thing.
If he could really join the State Guards of the Myriad Devil Ridge, it would be convenient for him to spy on the Myriad Devil Ridge in the future. He might even be able to play an unexpected role in certain situations.
Normally, Haotian Alliance would have to go through a lot of trouble just to insert a spy into the Myriad Devil Ridge. The conditions on his side were readily available, so it would be a pity not to make use of it.
"Really?" Tong Shuyao looked very happy. Lu Ye nodded. "Really."
"That's great, but you'll have to wait for two days. Martial Aunt is recuperating. When she comes out of seclusion, I'll tell her immediately."
On the way back, Tong Shuyao's mood was clearly better. She was humming a tune, and the smile on her face never disappeared.
After returning to the small courtyard, everyone rested.
In the next two days, Tong Shuyao came to look for Lu Ye from time to time, causing him to feel helpless.
Two days later, the woman came out of seclusion. As expected, Tong Shuyao immediately reported that Lu Ye was willing to join the State Guards. Only then did the woman look at Lu Ye with a much gentler gaze. She called out, "Follow me."
Lu Ye had the experience of joining the State Guards in Haotian Alliance, but he did not expect to do it again after a few months. Moreover, this time, he was joining the State Guards of the Myriad Devil Ridge.
The process was similar to that of Haotian Alliance.
First, he went to the Military Recruitment Department to register and receive a guard order. Then, he borrowed the War Merit Plate to calculate his military achievements and confirm his military rank.
Logically speaking, one's identity had to be verified during registration. To the cultivators of the Nine Continents, this was not difficult. They only needed to send a few messages to find out the situation.
However, Li Taibai's identity was from the Unparalleled Continent, and he was a rogue cultivator without any evidence. It was very difficult for the Military Recruitment Department to verify his identity.
Furthermore, with the woman as a guarantor, this matter was left unsettled. Naturally, Li Taibai's identity did not obtain any military achievements. Therefore, when Lu Ye activated the Myriad Devil Ridge Battlefield Imprint on the War Merit Plate, a white light appeared.
Logically speaking, Lu Ye could only start from the most basic soldier.
However, because Lu Ye was in the True Lake Stage, he obtained the military rank of a Fruit Guard.
This rule was the same as Haotian Alliance's. True Lake Stage cultivators were all in the same realm and even the weakest one would be a Guo Wei. Of course, if Lu Ye wanted to be promoted in the future, he would have to accumulate a certain amount of battle merits.
Following the woman out of the Military Recruitment Department, Lu Ye's emotions were complicated.
'What a mess …'
Now, he had two official identities. The first was naturally Lu Ye of the Blue Blood Sect, and the second was Li Taibai, a rogue cultivator from the Unparalleled Continent.
The Myriad Devil Ridge Battlefield Imprint also had records because when Lu Ye immersed himself in investigating, the Battlefield Imprint gave him some information.
Name: Li Taibai.
Identity: Rogue Cultivator from the Unparalleled Continent. Cultivation: Third-Order True Lake Stage. Location: Myriad Devil City. Merit: Zero. War Merit: Zero.
Lu Ye had checked his Myriad Devil Ridge Battlefield Imprint before, but there was no record at all. But now, there was. Obviously, he had obtained the recognition of Heaven's Secret.
"Let's go. Follow me back to the mountain pass." The woman called out. This time, she did not let Lu Ye and Tong Shuyao fly. Instead, she summoned a flight type spirit artifact and carried them out of Myriad Devil City.
Normally, when one's cultivation entered the State Guard, they would be transferred to a mountain pass by the Official Department.
But this woman was in the Spirit Sea Realm, so her status in Myriad Devil Ridge was not low. It was naturally no problem for her to ask for a person from the Official Department. So, when Lu Ye entered the Myriad Devil Ridge State Guard, he was one of her subordinates.
"This Queen is Lin Yue, the Dark Moon Forest Mountain Pass Lord of Bright Jade Pass. From now on, you will serve under me. When we reach the mountain pass, I will give you the position of Front Advisor. In the future, you and Yao 'er will help each other. If you have any questions, you can ask Yao' er," the woman said.
It was only at this moment that Lu Ye learned of the woman's name. He muttered to himself that there really was a position of Front Advisor. When Yiyi had received this position from the Missing Moon Immortal, Lu Ye had thought that the Missing Moon Immortal had casually given it to her. Now, it seemed that this position really existed.
"Many thanks for Senior's care." Lu Ye bowed.
"Call me Senior." Tong Shuyao tugged at Lu Ye's sleeve.
"Many thanks, Senior." Lu Ye readily accepted.
Tong Shuyao asked again, "Martial Aunt, is that poisonous woman still in Li Yuan? Will we meet her? "
Lin Yue shook her head and said, "She's no longer here. A few days ago, news came that she had killed her way out of Li Yuan and returned to Mount Vicissitude."
"She's really powerful." Tong Shuyao praised.
Lu Ye's expression was calm. He had contacted Thought Moon Immortal once before and knew about her current situation. She also asked about his location and situation. Lu Ye couldn't say it clearly, not because of anything else.
He was just afraid that she would be worried, so he told her that he had encountered some opportunities and would return later.
Thought Moon Immortal didn't suspect anything. Although she was worried about Lu Ye's safety, it wasn't good for her to go deeper into Li Yuan.
Along the way, everything was calm and peaceful. The previously lively Li Yuan also quieted down because of Thought Moon Immortal's departure.
The many flying swords that escaped from the Sword Instrument Sect's secret realm basically all had owners now.
A Divine Sea Realm cultivator's flying speed was very fast. Even if Lin Yue didn't rush at full speed, it only took her four to six hours to reach Dark Moon Forest Mountain Pass.
On the side of Wan Mo Ridge, Dark Moon Forest Mountain belonged to Bright Jade Pass. On the side of Haotian Alliance, it belonged to Heaven Gate Pass.
The two lines of defense of the two camps looked at each other from afar and had been fighting for many years.
Looking from afar, one could see the figures of cultivators moving around in the city. Compared to the dilapidated Blue Flame Mountain City, this place was undoubtedly more lively.
Both camps, many people were dumbfounded. Every mountain pass was guarded by horses. Only the Ashen Flame Mountain Pass' situation was special. It was filled with a deathly aura. For the past few decades, Thought Moon Immortal was the only lone person there.
Of course, this also benefited from Thought Moon Immortal's powerful strength. Her strength was more than enough to be the Pass Lord. However, because she didn't like to fight for power and she had her own insistence, she had always stayed at Blue Flame Mountain Pass.
It was Lu Ye's recent arrival that added some liveliness to Blue Flame Mountain Pass.
Flying into Dark Moon Forest Mountain Pass, a cultivator immediately came up to her and reported the recent troop movements and many other situations.
Tong Shuyao and Lu Ye followed behind Lin Yue and silently listened to her orders.
After a long while, Lin Yue waved her hand and the cultivator who came to report respectfully left.
Turning around, she ordered Tong Shuyao, "Take him down and settle him down."
"Yes." Tong Shuyao accepted the order.
