After leaving the Chu Residence, Lu An and Yao found an inn to stay in. The two of them sat in the room. Neither of them expected that things would become so troublesome.
They originally thought that the people with the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stones would fight alone. After all, it was recorded that people with the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stones would not be able to maintain their rationality. They would greedily kill and absorb energy. Previously, the captain of the Heaven Fiend Pirates had already surprised Lu An. This time, Tian Xing was a Level Seven Heavenly Master. He did not expect him to be able to maintain his rationality.
People with the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stones were the most terrifying. They were also the most troublesome to deal with. After pondering for a moment, Yao said to Lu An, "What does Lord Husband want to do?"
Lu An looked at Yao and frowned. "I want to let the sect master of the Sacred Land of the Gathering Sun Nation take the lead. After all, Tian Xing will threaten the safety of the entire Gathering Sun Nation sooner or later. They should be concerned. You and I only need to help from the side and help them deal with the pirates. Then, we can take the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stones. "
"But …" Yao hesitated and said, "Every day that the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stones are in Tian Xing's hands, who knows how many people will die because of it. I feel that I might not lose to Tian Xing in terms of strength. "
"What I want is not 'might not', but 'definitely'." Lu An looked at Yao and said seriously, "I know that Sengoku has always taken the sealing of the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stones as their responsibility. However, I do not wish for anything to happen to you. Other people's lives are important, but your life is more important to me. "
Hearing Lu An's words, Yao's heart was filled with warmth. She smiled happily. However, she was a little conflicted and said, "Then what should we do?"
Lu An knew that Yao was worried. He thought for a moment and said, "Since that's the case, why don't we personally make a trip to the Gathering Sun Nation's Sacred Land and urge them to eliminate the pirates."
Yao was startled and said, "Can we show ourselves?"
"Just wear a veil or a veil." Lu An said, "That day, the Hachiko clan was only able to find Purple Lake City because of Qi's information. They don't have many people, and they are arrogant. I don't think they have any connections with the people of Lianyang Country."
Hearing Lu An's words, Yao thought for a moment and nodded gently. "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Seven days later, in the Holy Land of Lianyang in Lianyang Country.
The Sacred Land of Gathering Sun was different from the other Sacred Lands. It was not built on a mountain isolated from the rest of the world. Instead, it was built on an empty plain. Because Lianyang Country was a mid-tier country, there were far more people in the Sacred Land of Lianyang than in smaller countries. Therefore, the Sacred Land was built as a small city.
The Sacred Land of Lianyang was surrounded by high city walls and mountains on three sides. In front of them was a large river with a magnificent aura. Lu An And Yao stood outside the bridge and looked at the huge gate of the sect. Sure enough, the Holy Land of an intermediate country was very different.
Lu An And Yao was dressed in luxurious clothes. Both of them wore curtained hats that covered their faces. Lu An turned to Yao and said. "Let's go in."
Yao nodded and the two of them walked towards the bridge over the river. The bridge was very long and was completely made of metal. There were many patterns carved on both sides of the bridge. Just as the two of them reached the middle of the bridge, four figures suddenly jumped down from the city walls. Using the momentum, they quickly rushed onto the bridge and arrived in front of Lu An And Yao.
The four of them stood in a row and looked at the two of them warily. They shouted, "Who are the two of you? Why have you come to the Sacred Land of Lianyang? "
Lu An cupped his hands and said politely, "My surname is Lin. I have something to discuss with your Sect Master. I'll have to trouble the four of you to inform him."
The four of them frowned when they heard Lu An's words. After looking at each other, one of them said, "Where are you from? What's the matter? Besides, do you think the Sect Master is someone you can meet just because you want to?! "
Lu An did not get angry when he heard this person's words. He continued, "I'm not from Lianyang Country. What we're discussing is confidential. Please inform him."
The four of them frowned even more when they heard Lu An's words. Being so secretive and wearing a veil hat, he didn't look like a good person. Another person shouted, "You're sneaking around and not saying anything. I don't think you're good people either! Hurry up and leave. Otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless! "
With that, the four of them pulled out their weapons and pointed them at Lu An And Yao. They looked aggressive as if they were about to attack at any moment.
Under the veil hat, Lu An frowned slightly. He didn't want to bully the weak and fight with these people. Moreover, it would affect the negotiations. The reason why he didn't want to tell these people about contacting the pirates was because he was worried that Tian Xing's people had already infiltrated the Sacred Ground of Lianyang. After all, Tian Xing's people could control so many cities. It wasn't impossible for them to arrange for spies to enter the Sacred Ground of Lianyang for safety.
However, if they fought here or forcefully called for the Sacred Ground's Sect Master, they might expose themselves to Tian Xing's spies. Helpless, Lu An could only say to the four of them, "Since that's the case, we won't disturb you any longer."
With that, Lu An said to Yao, "We'll leave first and then sneak into the Sacred Ground of Lianyang. Since we've already reported our arrival, I don't think the Sacred Ground's Sect Master will blame us. "
"En." Yao nodded lightly and left with Lu An.
After the two of them disappeared from the Sacred Ground, they immediately flew into the sky and headed towards the Sacred Ground of Lianyang at full speed. When the two of them arrived at the center of the Sacred Ground, Lu An was worried that his lack of strength would attract the attention of the other Vice Sect Masters. He thought for a moment and said to Yao, "Can you call the Sacred Ground's Sect Master out?"
"Yes." Yao nodded and immediately released his aura. Instantly, a powerful aura enveloped the entire Sacred Ground. This aura could only be sensed by Level 7 Heavenly Masters and above. Level 6 Heavenly Masters couldn't sense it at all.
Sure enough, after Yao released his aura for two breaths, a figure flew out of the Sacred Ground's main hall and soared into the sky. He stood at the same height as Lu An And Yao.
This person was none other than the Sacred Ground of Lianyang's Sect Master, Guo Santong.
Guo Santong looked at the two people in front of him with a serious expression. Both of them were wearing veiled hats, so he couldn't see their faces clearly. The aura just now had given him a big fright. However, the other party had only shrouded their aura at a height of seven thousand feet. They had used their actions to prove that they had no intention of attacking the Sacred Ground. Guo Santong was experienced and knowledgeable. He knew that the other party was most likely just calling him out.
Looking at the two people in front of him, Guo Santong cupped his hands and said in a deep voice, "May I know your names and why you've suddenly come to my Sacred Ground of Lianyang?"
Lu An cupped his hands and said politely, "My surname is Lin. This is my wife. We have no intention of offending the dignity of the Sacred Ground of Lianyang. However, we were refused entry through the main gate. We came here to discuss the matter of exterminating the Heavenly Punishment Pirates with the Sect Master alone. "
Heavenly Punishment Pirates?
Guo Santong's body shook. This news had been reported to him six days ago and had truly shocked him. A Level 7 Heavenly Master pirate had suddenly appeared in the Lianyang Country's sea region. It could be said that he was sitting on pins and needles. As the Sect Master of the Sacred Ground of Lianyang, how could he be at ease?
Over the past six days, he had been discussing with the palace officials on how to exterminate the pirates. He had even been communicating with the Sacred Grounds of other countries. It was hard to say who would win in a battle between Level 7 Heavenly Masters. If he lost, the entire Lianyang Country would cease to exist.
Guo Santong could sense that the young man speaking was a Level 6 Heavenly Master and his wife was a Level 7 Heavenly Master. If the other party was really cooperating with him, it would be a blessing from the heavens!
If the other party was a pirate, there would be no need for them to speak so much. They could just attack him directly with the Heavenly Punishment Pirates. Thinking of this, Guo Santong took a deep breath and cupped his hands to the two of them. "I'm Guo Santong. It's my Lianyang Country's great fortune to have the two of you on our side. Please follow me into the Sacred Ground!"
"No." Lu An said, "We want to speak with Sect Master Guo alone to prevent the pirates from placing spies in the Sacred Ground. Why don't Sect Master put down what you're doing and find an empty palace in the Sacred Ground for us to talk? "
Guo Santong was stunned. He had not expected the other party to want to talk alone. However, the other party's sincerity was very obvious. Even if they wanted to talk alone, it would be within the Sacred Ground to ensure that there would not be any danger. Guo Santong had no reason to refuse and immediately said, "Alright. The two of you, please wait for a moment in the purple palace below. I'll be right there!"
"Alright." Lu An said.
With the help of Yao Yao's concealing aura, Lu An And Yao quickly entered the purple palace. The purple palace was Guo Santong's study room. There was no one inside. Lu An And Yao sat on a chair to the side and waited. Guo Santong did not let the two of them wait for long and returned in just half a cup of tea's time.
After exchanging some pleasantries, Guo Santong sat beside the two of them and asked with a serious expression, "I wonder how the two of you know about the pirates?"
