Chapter 977: The Fallen Village's Old Friend
After learning that the Star Monarch and the people of Sixiang City had gone to Lingjiazhuang, Ling Yu couldn't wait to have wings on his back and rushed back to Lingjiazhuang to help. Counting up, Ling Yu has never returned to Lingjiazhuang since Tang Jinxuan's incense disappeared. He first fell silent in the Sea of Chaos for ten years, and then returned to China as the successor of the Incense Valley, shocking the four seas with the art of Dan Dao. Later, he went to Kunlun to snatch the key to Tianque and had a grudge with the great monarch and others. Then he was transported to the land of nothingness, beheaded the monarch, and forged the Divine Furnace. In the end, he returned to the East China Sea and rescued Yunuo. Ling Yu has experienced a lot of things along the way, but he has never stopped, it's not that he doesn't want to go back to the Northern Regions to visit his relatives and friends, it's just that there are many mundane things, and he really didn't find time. Now that he heard that Lingjiazhuang was in trouble, Ling Yu felt a deep guilt in his heart. It can be said that Lingjiazhuang's misfortune today is all because of him alone, and he was deeply affected.
Ling Yu sacrificed Wakaki Leaf and poured all the divine power into Wakaki Leaf. With the blessing of Ling Yu's spiritual power, this divine leaf was like a green lightning, rushing to Lingjiazhuang in an instant. Although Ling Yu's current cultivation was still at the peak of his state of mind, his physique and divine sense were no longer what they used to be. Even for Ling Yu, the journey from Sixiang City to Lingjiazhuang, if he arrived at Cold Moon City with the help of a teleportation array, and then crossed back to Lingjiazhuang from Cold Moon City, it would take more than half a month. And if he traveled with Wakakoha the whole time, he would be able to rush back to his homeland in less than ten days. Although controlling Ruo Mu Ye consumed a huge amount of Ling Yu's divine consciousness and spiritual power, in his heart, his hometown relatives were more important than everything. Therefore, even at the risk of running out of divine power, he will not hesitate to do it. Along the way, Ling Yu saw too many scenes of people being poisoned by the plague, and his heart was dripping blood, but he didn't dare to stop, he was bent on going north, and his heart was like an arrow.
Along the way, Ling Yufeng slept in the open and kept going. It wasn't until the evening of the eighth day that he finally rushed back to the vicinity of Lingjiazhuang. And when he was only thirty miles away from Lingjiazhuang, he couldn't help but stop. Ling Yu has not returned to his hometown for more than ten years, and for the prodigal son who has traveled far away, the feeling of being close to his hometown is a common problem in the hearts of everyone who returns to his hometown. He wanted to see his family safe and sound, but he was also worried that there would be bad news in Lingjiazhuang. Therefore, Ling Yu stopped in mid-air, his expression complicated. Although Lingjiazhuang was already close at hand at this time, he didn't dare to take that step.
"Xiaoyu, what should come will always come, and if you don't come, it's too much for you to worry, and now that you have returned to your hometown, don't hesitate. No matter what happens, you have to face it, don't you?" Feeling Ling Yu's complex and worried emotions, the realm dissolved in Ling Yu's sea of consciousness and comforted.
"I know, but I'm a little scared. Speaking of which, it has been more than ten years since I left Lingjiazhuang last time. For so many years, I never brought a single letter to my family, not even a single one. The era of martial arts has begun, and I have become a thorn in the side of the great monarch and others, a thorn in the flesh, they will definitely do something to my family when they see me, so as to force me to show up. Actually, I should have thought about this a long time ago, but I didn't return to my homeland to take a look and settle them. As a son, I am unfilial, and as a friend, I am unjust!" Ling Yu shook his head gently, a thick look of guilt flashed between his eyebrows, and said with a little pain. Ling Yu's advantages are obvious, but his shortcomings are also impossible to hide, he is too affectionate, and sometimes he likes to blame himself for the disasters suffered by others. He is tolerant of others and himself.
After a long time, Ling Yu finally took a deep breath and rode Ruomu Ye towards Lingjiazhuang. As the world said, many things are already doomed, what should have happened has happened, and it is useless to escape. Moreover, until he saw it with his own eyes, any wild speculation was nothing more than personal imagination.
However, when Ling Yu stepped on the divine leaf and came to the sky above Lingjiazhuang, he was still taken aback. He looked at the messy village at his feet, his head "buzzed", his eyes turned black, and he almost fell into the clouds. At this time, the Lingjiazhuang that appeared in front of Ling Yu's eyes was very different from the happy land in his memory, the small river at the head of the village had dried up, revealing the black silt inside, and the unknown aquatic plants withered and turned yellow, gently swaying with the cold wind. And there are many medicinal herbs and clay pots scattered in the courtyard of his house, and those clay pots have been broken by people, and the cracks are uneven. The medicinal herbs have also been trampled on by countless people and are covered with dust. The wall of the Ling family's compound was blasted out of a huge gap, and the top of the hall was also pierced, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a broken wall. The large vat placed in the backyard as a coming-of-age ceremony for the village teenagers to take a bath has also been smashed, and the herbs are scattered all over the ground along with the potion.
Not only the Ling Yu family, but not a single house in the entire Lingjiazhuang was intact, they were pierced through the roof by the cultivators with sharp blades and divine power, knocking down the courtyard wall, and even the dry firewood prepared by the people in the village for the winter had been ignited. After the firewood burned, it left a field of ashes and a desolate landscape.
Not only the human beings in the entire village, but also the poultry and domestic animals were gone, like a ruined Jedi, lifeless. Looking at Ling Jiazhuang, which had already been attacked, Ling Yu's eyes were split, and he ran towards the depths of the village as if he was crazy, shouting as he ran, hoping to get a response from others. Remorse, anger, worry and other emotions poured into Ling Yu's heart at the same time, and he hurried to hurry, but he didn't expect to be a step too late in the end. At this moment, Ling Yu had only one thought in his heart, and that was to find the people and parents in the village. Even he comforted himself that his loved ones had been rescued.
However, after Ling Yu had traveled through the village countless times from east to west and from south to north, he finally sat down on the ground in despair. Because, the whole village is dead silent, and there is no trace of life. The flame of hope that had been held in his heart gradually extinguished, and when he looked up again, his eyes were filled with a fierce light.
"Who!" Just as Ling Yu was in despair, he suddenly felt that there was a killing intent in the vast snow-capped mountains behind Ling Jiazhuang, and the person targeted by that killing intent was himself. The other party had already locked himself firmly with the qi machine, and Ling Yu felt in an instant that the other party's cultivation was very high, and he was in the Supreme Realm.
Based on the other party's killing intent, Ling Yu naturally thought that the other party was the Star Monarch or the cultivator of the Zhong family in the Four Elephant City. Therefore, after a short period of distraction, Ling Yu vented all his hatred on the cultivator who flew from the back mountain. I saw Ling Yu sacrifice the broken sword, and directly cast the ultimate killing move of "Nine Turns of Demon Breaking", Nine Turns to Break Demons. When Ling Yu's broken sword danced, black winds flew out from the broken sword and rushed towards the back mountain. When the black wind flew out, they condensed in the void and turned into a black dragon, mixed with a cold luster, cruel and fierce.
Because Ling Yu was in a state of anger at this moment, the power exuded by the Nine Turns Demon Breaker was actually comparable to the coercion of a Supreme Realm powerhouse. With the deafening sound of the dragon's groan, the black divine dragon moved forward, as if it was about to tear the cultivator apart. Where the dragon roamed, there were gusts of wind and rain.
When the divine dragon rushed into the sky, the cultivator on the opposite side also saw the broken sword in Ling Yu's hand, and for a moment, the cultivator suddenly hesitated for a moment. Then, he suddenly opened his mouth and said to Ling Yu in shock, "Xiao Yu, you're back!" Although the divine dragon was mighty, it still didn't cover his voice.
Hearing the cultivator's words, Ling Yu was also slightly stunned. Then, with his sword in his hand, he withdrew the exercises when the divine dragon was at a distance of three zhang from the cultivator. Because, Ling Yu heard his identity from the cultivator's voice. The cultivator who flew from the mountain behind Lingjiazhuang was in turmoil.
Previously, Wu Dao needed Luo Yang's help because the twelve spiritual weapons that were warmed in his body were damaged, so he went to Shenwu Academy with Xiao Hei. I haven't seen each other for several years, but I didn't expect to meet again in Lingjiazhuang in the Northern Regions. However, how could the ambush appear here? Judging by his actions, it seemed that he had come to Lingjiazhuang earlier than himself, so had the villagers and parents in the village also been rescued by the ambush? When Ling Yu was looking in the village before, he found that although the village was infested by the Zhong family cultivators who were like bandits, fortunately, no bones were found in the village, which also made him feel much more relieved.
"Old bandit, why are you here?When did you arrive in the Northern Regions?What about my parents and relatives?Where are they now?Also, I heard that the Star Monarch and Zhong Zifan have come to the Northern Regions, have you fought with them?" Ling Yu stepped forward and gave Fu Chao a hug, and asked urgently.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to wander around the village! If I had known it was you, I wouldn't have had to release my killing intent on you. A few days ago, the Star Monarch and Zhong Zifan came to Lingjiazhuang with the intention of doing evil, but fortunately, Mr. took precautions and asked me to send the people of Lingjiazhuang to the Shuize Divine City in advance, which saved the people from being slaughtered. As for your parents, you don't have to worry about it. Old Man Ling and Old Master Emperor are now cultivators of the Supreme Realm, and your father is already a powerhouse at the peak of the Supreme Realm. They want to be bad for your family, I'm afraid they think too much. Fu Chao snorted coldly.
It turned out that three months ago, Mr. returned to Mizusawa Divine City. And he came back this time, as if he had something on his mind. The gentleman frowned, and after returning to Mizusawa Divine City, he issued three orders in succession. The first order was to tell Zhu Huai to go to Zhongzhou to find the ambush, and let the ambush send Ling Feng and the others to the Mizusawa Divine City. Because Zhu Huai and Gui Rui Qisha do not know each other, if he rashly comes forward, it is likely to cause unnecessary misunderstandings. The second order, Mr. ordered the Vermilion Bird Princess Yuyao to go to the Southern Wilderness and take the Vermilion Bird Divine Beast to the Northern Regions. Because the Southern Wilderness Guardian Yan Slaughter was killed by the Oriental Venerable Qiu Long in the foreign land, Mr. was worried that they would be unfavorable to the Vermilion Bird Divine Beast, so he asked Yu Yao to go to Wanli** to pick up his father. The third order, Mr. asked Lan Xin to go to the Tongling Pavilion, the Paradise Pavilion and the Imperial Beast King Court, and unite other forces in Huaxia to prepare for the final counterattack against the Great Monarch and others.
And after Zhu Huai found the ambush, he found that the ambush had found six stumps in the human realm, and had successfully promoted to the peak of the supreme realm. After hearing about the Great Sovereign's actions, Fu Chao was worried that Ling Feng would be defeated by the Star Sovereign, so he hurried to the Northern Regions without stopping. When he came to Lingjiazhuang, he explained his intentions and led Xiao Ye, Qiu Changling, Fan Hai, Gu Caiwei and Ling Feng and others in the Seven Evils of the Ruins to move to Shuize Divine City. It is a paradise for all demons, and with the protection of Mr., I think I can escape the butcher's knife of the Star Monarch. After the ambush settled everyone down, he has been living in seclusion in the snow-capped mountains near Lingjiazhuang, waiting for the arrival of the Star Monarch and others. The Star Monarch is the right-hand man of the Great Sovereign, and the Great Sovereign regards Ling Yu as a thorn in his side, so after he searches for Ling Yu to no avail, he will definitely do something to the relatives around Ling Yu. Sure enough, half a month later, they really invaded Lingjiazhuang.
The Star Monarch and Zhong Zifan led more than 300 dead soldiers who were eager to turn Lingjiazhuang upside down, but they didn't find a single citizen. Annoyed and angry, Xingchen Sovereign Cai, Zhong Zifan and others wreaked havoc in Lingjiazhuang, creating the illusion of being looted by bandits. And after seven days of ambush outside Lingjiazhuang, their patience was finally exhausted. They knew that the people of Lingjiazhuang must have gotten some news, so they moved out of here in advance. The Star Monarch couldn't find Ling Feng and other Ling Yu's relatives, but he didn't want to return empty-handed, so he went to Tianji Gate at Zhong Zifan's suggestion.
"What, they made a move on my master?" Hearing the words of the ambush, Ling Yu's heart, which had finally settled down, swelled with anger again. It seems that this Star Monarch and Zhong Zifan really don't give up! They can't find their relatives, and they actually want to do something to the Tianji Gate, they really deserve to be killed!
