Late at night, in the third courtyard in the northwest.
Hearing Lu An's words, Yuan was obviously stunned. He asked, "Are you leaving?"
"Yes, sir." Lu An nodded and said calmly, "I have disturbed you in Sengoku for more than a month, and I have a lot of things to do."
Hearing Lu An's words, Yuan frowned slightly. In his opinion, Immortal Qi was a very special way of cultivation in the Middle Era of the Eight Ancient Continents. This young man should have felt the power of Immortal Qi. Why did he choose to leave?
There were only a few Fate Wheels in the entire continent that could be compared with Immortal Qi. This young man didn't have any Fate Wheels in his body. Did he really have something to do?
Looking at Lu An's serious expression, Yuan frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "It seems that you have made up your mind to leave."
"Yes," Lu An nodded and said.
"Then why do you still want to go to war?" Yuan asked, "Do you really like my daughter?"
"Sir, Yao and I are just friends." Lu An chuckled lightly and said, "Senior, you don't have to worry about that. I won't delay any distant future. To be honest, I already have someone in my heart. Going to war is just to fulfill my responsibility as a friend before leaving. "
Looking at Lu An, Yuan felt that this young man was not lying. He relaxed as well, nodded, and said. "Since you're determined to leave, I won't be able to hold you back. However, since you're Yao's friend, if you have any trouble in the future, you can come to the Celestial Realm for help."
"I will remember. Thank you, sir," Lu An cupped his hands and said respectfully.
Yuan got up and said to Lu An, "We will go to war in a week. Don't forget."
"Yes, sir," Lu An said.
Soon, Yuan pushed the door open and left. Lu An watched Yuan leave. He closed the door and sat back on the bed.
He didn't cultivate immediately. Instead, he let out a long breath. He had to admit that the pressure from Yuan standing alone in front of him was too unbearable.
Even if Yuan didn't do it deliberately, the faint aura of a powerhouse was enough to make him collapse. If he hadn't experienced the near-death experience, he might not have been able to withstand it and his expression would have changed greatly. Fortunately, he was now able to control his emotions very well.
Lu An took a deep breath and forcefully calmed the fluctuations in his heart. After a long while, Lu An once again entered a meditative state and closed his eyes.

A week later.
The competition had ended two days ago. The person who won in the end was not Yao. Instead, it was a very talented branch family member. This person was only nineteen years old, but his strength was already comparable to a mid-stage Level Four Heavenly Master in the outside world. Coupled with his powerful combat skills, he swept through the entire competition and was invincible.
In a place like Sengoku, there was no lack of geniuses and experts.
Yao's results were pretty good as well, and in the end, she entered the top ten. For a person who had only cultivated for slightly more than a month, this was already monstrous.
However, Lu An never appeared again in these few days of competition. Yao, who was a little worried and wanted to look for Lu An, was stopped by her father and informed of Lu An's decision.
Knowing that Lu An was leaving, Yao couldn't help but feel disappointed. In fact, she knew in her heart that Lu An couldn't stay in Sengoku forever. However, Lu An being able to accompany her on the expedition before he left was enough to make her happy.
Therefore, she didn't disturb Lu An these days, and Lu An also locked himself in the house.
The next morning, the expedition team began to gather. This time, a total of twenty-one people from Sengoku were dispatched to Guangrui. Of course, half of these twenty-one people were from the younger generation and were sent out to train. Only ten of them were strong and above Level Four Heavenly Master.
Because the scale of the pagan sect in Guangrui was very small, the leader this time was Qing, and the strongest person was also Qing. The twenty-one people came to the gathering place in order. There was only half an hour before the expedition time.
Among these people, some had already gone to the expedition a few times, while some had never gone to the expedition before. Those who had never gone to the expedition before were very excited. After all, even they couldn't leave Sengoku casually.
Those who had already arrived were chatting. They were all very excited because they were lucky enough to go to the expedition with Princess Yao, and it was Princess Yao's first expedition. At this moment, Yao was looking towards the northwest. She raised her head in anticipation, as if she was waiting for someone to arrive.
At the side, Qing was sitting on a wooden chair and waiting quietly. Qing's temperament had always been very cold. He only looked at his sister's expression quietly and didn't say anything.
Finally, after a while, a figure appeared on the road in the northwest. When Yao saw this figure, she immediately smiled happily.
Who else could this person be other than Lu An?
Lu An walked over from the northwest and quickly attracted everyone's attention. Everyone looked at this outsider with different gazes.
When Lu An was about to arrive, Yao happily ran over to welcome him. When she arrived in front of Lu An, she happily said, "You're finally here!"
Lu An looked at Yao and said with a smile, "Mn."
"I haven't seen you for a few days, and I feel a lot more bored." Yao said, "How's your cultivation these past few days?"
"Not bad." Lu An heard and said with a smile.
He wasn't wrong. His non-stop cultivation day and night didn't let him down. Just yesterday, he successfully reached the pinnacle of level one, and successfully improved.
Every time he felt his strength improve, he would be very happy. Now that he reached the pinnacle of level one, he could truly touch the barrier of level two Heavenly Master. This would be his first breakthrough in strength. To him, there was no way he wouldn't be nervous.
Like all the other Heavenly Masters, he even began to worry if he wouldn't be able to advance to level two and stay in level one forever.
Everyone looked at the conversation between Yao and Lu An, and they were more or less unhappy. After all, Lu An was an outsider. How could the princess be so nice to an outsider?
After a while, it was time to go to the expedition. Qing stood up and checked the number of people. All twenty-one people were present. Everyone consciously gathered in front of Qing. When it was time to go to the expedition, they wouldn't say anything anymore.
"First, I'll give everyone a brief introduction of our target this time." Qing cleared her throat and said, "The Guangrui Country we're going to go to is a wetland country. There are many forests and swamps there, and there are many strange beasts in the forest. Our target is somewhere in the largest forest in Guangrui Country. In other words, we may not only face pagans, but also strange beasts. "
As she said, Qing looked around and finally set her eyes on Lu An, as if she was saying to him, "This expedition will be the same as before. We are all tourists going to play. If no one disturbs us, we don't need to show our strength. Of course, if someone provokes us, we can fight back. After all, we will leave soon, and they won't be able to find us. "
Hearing Qing's words, everyone nodded. If people don't offend us, we won't offend them. This was Sengoku's motto. However, the people of Sengoku were very arrogant. If others spoke rudely to them, they naturally wouldn't let it go.
Then, Qing looked at Yao and the other young people and said, "For those who are going to the expedition for the first time, the first thing you must remember is to obey orders. No matter what happens, you are not allowed to act on your own. Do you understand?"
"Understood!" Everyone shouted.
Seeing this, Qing nodded in satisfaction. Then, she turned around and led everyone to the Gate of the Immortal Realm in Guangrui Country.
Soon, everyone walked from the gathering point to the bamboo forest. Qing stopped at a place and raised his hand. In an instant, a white light shone and a Gate of the Immortal Realm appeared in front of everyone.
"Let's go." Qing said loudly. Then, she took the lead and stepped through the Gate of the Immortal Realm.
Seeing this, the other Sengoku people didn't delay. They walked through the Gate of the Immortal Realm and disappeared. Some of them were even excited, as if it was their first time passing through the Gate of the Immortal Realm.
Lu An was the last, and Yao, who was in front of him, was the second last to enter. After Yao entered, Lu An looked at the brilliant Gate of the Immortal Realm in front of him. His eyes narrowed, but he didn't hesitate.
He stepped through the Gate of the Immortal Realm. In an instant, countless white lights drowned him. He felt as if his body was being stripped away. He didn't feel any pain, but he couldn't control it at all.
He didn't like the feeling of not being able to control it.
However, time passed quickly. After less than three breaths, Lu An felt a pushing force coming from behind him. In an instant, his body surged forward and he walked out of the Gate of the Immortal Realm.
Stepping on the ground, Lu An's heart calmed down. Then, he looked around and couldn't help but be stunned.
Because they were in a damp forest.
