Chapter 67: Return to Pingjiang City
"Thank you Senior Brother for your concern, I don't have any difficulties, I just want to return to the Flame Kingdom, visit my family, and deal with some personal matters by the way!"
Seeing the look of concern on the face of the guardian of the teleportation array, Yang Rui's heart warmed, and he explained with a smile on his face.
"Yang Rui, you are the pride of our Great Zhou Branch, I hope you will cultivate well at Dengxian Peak and don't waste your precious newcomer cultivation time! Once the ten-year cultivation period of a newcomer has passed, the difficulty for you to obtain cultivation resources will increase by more than ten times!"
Hearing Yang Rui's explanation, the teleportation array guardian was relieved for a moment, and then said to Yang Rui with a solemn face.
"Senior brother, don't worry, I will cherish the newcomer's ten years of cultivation time! I hope that Senior Brother will not tell anyone else about my return to the Flame Kingdom this time, and let me handle my personal affairs quietly!" Yang Rui said softly.
"I'll help you keep it secret, you try to deal with your personal affairs as soon as possible, and return to Ascending Immortal Peak to cultivate as soon as possible!" the teleportation array guardian nodded in response.
After receiving an affirmative answer from the guardian of the teleportation array, Yang Rui thanked him and left the teleportation array and walked outside.
Soon, Yang Rui left the Great Zhou Branch, took out a superb magic weapon flying boat from the puppet tower, and made it rapidly enlarge, turning into a small silver boat with a length of a few feet, suspended in mid-air.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Rui's body moved, jumped onto the silver flying boat, agitated the mana in his body, urged the silver flying boat, turned into a silver streamer, and galloped away in the direction where the Flame Kingdom was located.
Yang Rui's body was extremely full of mana, and the flight speed of the silver flying boat was extremely fast, in just three days, Yang Rui returned from the Great Zhou Empire to the Flame Kingdom, landed outside Pingjiang City, put away the silver flying boat, and slowly walked towards Pingjiang City.
"Lord Castle, you're back!"
When the guards of the City Lord's Mansion saw Yang Rui dressed in white, a look of surprise flashed in their eyes, and they couldn't help shouting loudly.
"Well, I'm back!" Yang Rui replied softly, and slowly entered the City Lord's Mansion.
"The lord of the castle is back!"
"The lord of the castle is back!"
"The lord of the castle is back!"
βγγγγγγγβ
Seeing Yang Rui, a guard and maid of the Famous City Lord's Mansion, they all shouted loudly.
Soon, the news of Yang Rui's return spread throughout the entire City Lord's Mansion, and Qin Xue, who was dealing with official business, immediately threw down the file in his hand and ran in the direction where Yang Rui was.
"Brother Rui!"
As soon as she saw Yang Rui, Qin Xue screamed with excitement on her face, quickly threw herself into Yang Rui's arms, and hugged Yang Rui tightly.
Looking at Qin Xue who was hugging him, Yang Rui showed a faint smile on his face and gently patted Qin Xue on the back.
"Brother Rui, I miss you so much!"
After Qin Xue hugged Yang Rui tightly for a while, she raised her head and looked at Yang Rui with affection.
"Cher, I miss you too!"
Yang Rui looked at Qin Xue's eyes and responded with tenderness on his face.
After speaking, Yang Rui picked up Qin Xue and walked in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion's bedroom.
After some clouds and rain, Qin Xue lay in Yang Rui's arms, her cheek was pressed against Yang Rui's chest, and she said softly: "Brother Rui, can you tell me about your affairs for the past half a year?"
"After I left Pingjiang City, I went to the capital of the Flame Kingdom, and together with Shen Ming, a disciple of the inner gate of the Xianwu Gate, I went to the imperial capital of the Great Zhou Empire to participate in the apprenticeship ceremony held by the Xianwu Gateγγγγγγ"
Yang Rui whispered what happened after he left Pingjiang City and explained it to Qin Xue in detail.
However, in the process of introduction, Yang Rui concealed some secret things such as the puppet tower, Tianquan Star King Mengqi, and asked Qin Xue if he was willing to enter the Immortal Martial Sect to cultivate.
"Brother Rui, although the Immortal Martial Sect is good, it is not our home, I still hope to stay in Pingjiang City to cultivate and protect the foundation of Pingjiang City for you!" Qin Xue pondered for a while, looked at Yang Rui with a solemn expression and said.
"Xue'er, Pingjiang City is not a foundation at all, you don't need to spend your time and energy on Pingjiang City! I hope you can go to the Xianwu Gate to cultivate, with the help of the cultivation resources of the Xianwu Gate, you can quickly become strong and have a long life, so that we can stay together for a long time!"
Hearing Qin Xue's words, Yang Rui frowned slightly, and said softly.
"Brother Rui, even if I don't enter the Immortal Martial Sect, I can still cultivate, I can also become a powerful monk, have a long life, and stay with you for a long time! You see, it's only been half a year, and I have cultivated from a third-rate martial artist to the realm of a great grandmaster, or it won't be long before I can become a mana realm cultivator, and I don't have to go to the Immortal Martial Sect to cultivate at all!" Qin Xue shook her head lightly and said.
"Since that's the case, then you can stay in Pingjiang City to cultivate first! When I gain a firm foothold in the Xianwu Gate, be promoted to a true disciple, and have my own peak, I will pick you up and go to the Xianwu Gate to cultivate!"
Seeing that Qin Xue insisted on staying in Pingjiang City to cultivate, Yang Rui pondered for a while, then nodded lightly.
Since Qin Xue was unwilling, Yang Rui didn't need to force it, he only needed to leave Qin Xue some more cultivation resources such as spirit stone pills, and whether Qin Xue went to the Immortal Martial Sect to cultivate or not, it would not have much impact.
The reason why Yang Rui wanted Qin Xue to go to the Xianwu Gate to cultivate was because the Xianwu Gate was relatively safe, and when he went out to travel, Qin Xue would not be in any danger.
Hearing Yang Rui's words, Qin Xue's face showed a happy smile, and she said softly: "Brother Rui, after you are promoted to the true disciple of the Immortal Martial Sect and have your own peak, I will go to the Immortal Martial Sect to help you manage the peak!"
"Xue'er, don't worry, that day will come soon!" Yang Rui said with a confident look on his face.
Bang! Bang!
At this moment, a rapid knock on the door suddenly sounded outside Yang Rui's bedroom, making Yang Rui frown slightly, and a look of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
"The city lord is not good, tens of thousands of people in Yuanji Town have been slaughtered!"
Before Yang Rui could attack, the anxious voice of Zhang Yuan, the captain of the Pingjiang City Law Enforcement Team, sounded outside the bedroom, making Yang Rui's eyes flash with a cold light, quickly put on his clothes, walked outside the bedroom, looked at Zhang Yuan, and said, "Who did it?"
"Lord City Lord, tens of thousands of people in Yuanji Town were all killed by one person! That person is extremely powerful, our Pingjiang City sent an elite team of 1,000 people to strangle him, but he was wiped out by his palm, it is really terrifying!"
Looking at Yang Rui, who was full of anger, Zhang Yuan said with a look of horror on his face, obviously frightened by the person in Yuan Jizhen.
"Where is that person now?"
Hearing Zhang Yuan's words, the cold light in Yang Rui's eyes deepened, and he asked in a cold tone.
"City Lord, that person is still in Yuanji Town!"
Feeling the cold aura emanating from Yang Rui's body, Zhang Yuan snorted and hurriedly responded loudly.
After getting the information he wanted, as soon as Yang Rui's body moved, he mobilized the mana in his body, took off into the air, and galloped away in the direction where Yuan Jizhen was.
One person slaughtered a town of tens of thousands of people, and killed an elite squad of 1,000 people with one palm, which was obviously done by monks.
A strange monk dared to kill innocents in his own territory, which made Yang Rui very angry, and he was ready to give him a bloody lesson and let him die in pain.
Soon, Yang Rui flew into the sky above Yuanji Town, and the broken corpses of countless adults, children, and old people came into Yang Rui's field of vision, making Yang Rui's heart surge with a monstrous murderous aura, and his eyes were full of angry fire.
"Where!"
Yang Rui let go of his divine sense and scanned towards Yuan Jizhen, an old man wearing a blood-colored robe and exuding a strong bloody aura entered Yang Rui's divine sense, making Yang Rui muttered softly, and flew towards the side of the blood-colored robe old man.
In the process of flying towards the blood-colored robed old man, the mana in Yang Rui's body surged, the Qingyun Sword Technique unfolded, and the Qingfeng Sword in his hand flashed, and an extremely powerful sword shot out from it, with an extremely sharp edge, slashing towards the body of the blood-colored robed old man.
"Boy, you're looking for death!"
In the face of the fierce sword attack, the blood-colored robed old man who was refining the blood-colored qi flashed a murderous light in his eyes, and with a roar of anger, he urged the mana in his body to pour it into a blood-colored long sword, turning it into a blood-colored sword light, and slashing towards the sword that Yang Rui swung.
Bang!
With a crisp sound, the blood-colored sword light slashed Yang Rui's sword, and slashed towards Yang Rui's body unabated.
"Break it for me!"
Looking at the blood-colored sword light that was speeding quickly, Yang Rui snorted lightly, the mana in his body surged, and the Qingfeng Sword in his hand swung out, taking the initiative to meet the blood-colored sword light.
Bang!
In a crisp sound of metal collision, the Qingfeng Sword in Yang Rui's hand, with the blessing of the strong mana in Yang Rui's body, easily destroyed the blood-colored sword light, turning it into blood-colored fragments in the sky, splashing away.
Seeing that the blood-colored sword light was destroyed, the blood-colored robed old man's face changed greatly, and a look of horror flashed in his eyes, and he immediately mobilized the mana in his body and fled into the distance.
"Do you want to escape?"
Seeing the blood-colored robe old man fleeing, Yang Rui snorted coldly, the mana in his body surged, turned into a white lightning, and quickly caught up with the blood-colored robed old man, and the Qingfeng sword in his hand swung out, with a sharp edge, cutting the blood-colored robe old man in two.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Rui's body moved, approaching the side of the blood-colored robe old man, and the mana in his body surged, turning into a mana cage, enveloping the upper body of the blood-colored robed old man.
"Boy, let me go immediately, I can not blame the past! Otherwise, my master, Blood Demon Ancestor, will definitely kill you!"
The blood-colored robed old man, who was imprisoned by the mana, looked at Yang Rui with a sinister face and threatened loudly.
"Give me a detailed account of your origin and the information of the Blood Demon Ancestor!"
Yang Rui frowned slightly, and asked loudly in a cold tone.
In the midst of the questioning, the mana in Yang Rui's body surged, casting the seal of life and death, condensing a death mark, hitting it into the body of the old man in the blood-colored robe, and activating it, causing the old man in the blood-colored robe to let out a terrible scream.
A quarter of an hour later, Yang Rui stopped urging the death seal, and the blood-colored robed old man who died and came alive in pain, without waiting for Yang Rui to speak, honestly confessed his origin and the information of the Blood Demon Ancestor.
