Five years later.

Outside Tianyun City.

"Brother Chen, come and see!" Zi Qingyue excitedly called Lu Chen.

Lu Chen heard Zi Qingyue's voice and hurriedly ran over.

Zi Qingyue handed the things in her hand to Lu Chen.

Lu Chen took it.

"Wow, look at this pattern, it's exactly the same as the one drawn in the book, I didn't expect you to really find it. Lu Chen looked at the five-colored mushroom in his hand and said excitedly.

"yes, yes, this mushroom only grows in autumn and disappears in three days, and this time I finally found it. Zi Qingyue had a smile on her face.

Lu Chen smiled with satisfaction.

He knew why Zi Qingyue was looking for five-colored mushrooms, because the two of them had found a method from an ancient book, saying that using five-colored mushrooms could cure things that could not feel aura.

According to the book, this mushroom will only grow for three days in a year, and this is the third day that the two of them have left home, and if they can't find it today, there is no hope.

But the hard work pays off.

"Qingyue, let's go back quickly, make this five-colored mushroom into medicine, and you can cultivate. Lu Chen said happily.

"yes, yes, I'm looking forward to it. Zi Qingyue carefully put the five-colored mushrooms into the box and was about to leave.

Suddenly!

Ten miles away, a gust of wind rose!

"It's not good, Qingyue run!" Lu Chen felt a panic in his heart, this scene was like a strange beast attacking the city, so he immediately grabbed Qingyue's hand and rushed towards Tianyun City.

And Zi Qingyue also realized the seriousness of the matter, and the two tried their best to run towards the city gate.

And the two of them didn't run as fast as the gust of wind!

The wind is getting closer and closer to the two!

Zi Qingyue glanced back and said in horror: "Brother Chen, run, it's a strange beast!"

And Lu Chen was taken aback by the name of this strange beast.

"I didn't expect it, it's really a strange beast!"

Alien beast Lu Chen has understood, this kind of alien beast is different from wild beasts, they are born with great strength, strong skin, and huge food, if there is not enough food in the mountains, they will go down the mountain in groups to attack humans!

Lu Chen regretted it in his heart, he shouldn't have taken Zi Qingyue out of the city, and Uncle Zhang was in retreat again, so there was no one to protect the two of them.

Lu Chen saw that he was getting closer and closer to the city gate, and the strange beast behind him was also getting closer and closer.

Lu Chen heard the roar of the guards at the city gate.

"Go and call the city lord!"

"Close the gates!"

Lu Chen's heart tightened, and he used all his strength to pull Zi Qingyue and run away, for fear that the city gate would be closed, and the two of them would become a delicacy for foreign beasts.

"Whew......"

A deafening roar frightened Lu Chen almost to fall, Lu Chen looked back and saw a golden lion, opening its bloody mouth at himself and Qingyue, and Qingyue was already so frightened that she burst into tears.

Just as the golden lion leaped forward, ready to eat the two of them. There was a roar in the sky.

"How dare you, brute!"

Before the man arrives, the weapon arrives first!

A red spear stabbed the lion's jaw!

The lion turned around and dodged this blow, but at the same time, it also let Lu Chen and Zi Qingyue run into the city gate.

The gates are closed.

Zi Qingyue collapsed into Lu Chen's arms, crying loudly.

This incident really frightened Zi Qingyue.

And Lu Chen coaxed Zi Qingyue in his arms.

In every city, there is a city lord, and the city lord is as long as he has the strength and is recognized by the people, he can, and he doesn't just look at the cultivation, who the city lord is.

The position of the city lord, some people want to do it, some people don't want to, and it has nothing to do with cultivation.

But the city lord can enjoy the respect and worship of the people in the city, and at the same time be responsible for protecting everyone's safety, after all, most people are ordinary people, not cultivators.

And these guards are all cultivators, some are for money, some are for experiencing life and honing their minds, and some are for cultivation and can't move forward anymore, so they found this kind of job, after all, the salary is very high, and the pills for cultivation are also very expensive.

And their mission is the same, to protect civilians, and the biggest threat to civilians is this beast.

Lu Chen hugged Qingyue, found a high ground, and watched the fight outside.

Just the man who saved their lives, holding a red spear in his hand, was alone, dealing with dozens of strange beasts at the same time.

Dozens of strange beasts attacked him in turn, and he had some difficulty parrying it.

Just when Lu Chen thought that the man was going to retreat.

Suddenly, the spear in the man's hand turned even redder, as if it was about to catch fire.

Just listen to the man's roar!

"The sunset!"

In an instant, the spear literally lit up with red flames.

The man waved his spear in his hand, and the dozens of strange beasts in front of him died instantly!

Lu Chen's mouth grew in shock, and even Zi Qingyue stopped crying, watching the fight outside the door.

And at this time, a powerful force came from the sky, a white light, stabbing at the alien beasts outside the door, and hundreds of alien beasts died in an instant.

Out of nowhere, a man in white appeared

And the people who fought against the strange beasts outside the door saw the man in white and called out to the city lord.

"It turns out that he is Qi Wanli, the city lord of Tianyun City, how powerful. Lu Chen said in shock.

This man left a deep impression on Lu Chen, who really wanted to become such a cultivator, but Uncle Zhang once said that his talent was too poor and he was not suitable for cultivation.

"It's really powerful, but it's not as powerful as Uncle Zhang!" Zi Qingyue said.

Lu Chen was very surprised when he heard it, he and Uncle Zhang have known each other for five years, and they don't know what their strength is, so they know that this old man hasn't changed his expression for five years.

After a long day of fighting, the alien beast was repulsed.

Lu Chen knew that he could be so hungry that he had no food to eat, and only low-level alien beasts attacked human cities, after all, high-level alien beasts could eat low-level alien beasts, while low-level alien beasts could only eat some beasts.

The alien beast was repulsed, and Lu Chen returned home with Zi Qingyue.

Not surprisingly, the five-colored mushrooms were of no use to Zi Qingyue at all.

"Qingyue, don't be discouraged, we can find other ways. Lu Chen comforted Zi Qingyue, who was depressed.
