Chapter 23: The Aftermath

Inside the room.

Lu Yuan sat cross-legged, and Qing Xuanzi's soul slowly floated out of his Heavenly Spirit Cover.

Qing Xuanzi said: "Xiao Yuan, try it, there is nothing wrong with the body, right?" ”

Lu Yuan quickly looked inward, and ran the Xuan Qi for a great week.

"No problem!"

"That's good. Our tactics were right. ”

Lu Yuan smiled: "To be honest, I really didn't have a bottom in my heart last night." ”

Qing Xuanzi also smiled: "You have a strange soul necklace, what are you panicking about." But then again, without the remnant soul of that big demon, even with the help of the necklace, we can only fight back against Gu Nanfeng's magic weapon. As for his last-ditch moves, we might get some injuries too. ”

Lu Yuan nodded: "Luck is based on strength. ”

Qing Xuanzi said: "Yes." The big demon didn't know where it came from, and his soul power was almost exhausted in this battle. By the way, how's the necklace? ”

Lu Yuan immediately took it out of his neck to check it.

The alien soul necklace that Hu Bugui gave back then was lying quietly in Lu Yuan's palm.

It's just that because of the powerful power released, two cracks faintly appeared on the pendant.

Lu Yuan secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, it was not completely damaged.

Qing Xuanzi said: "The raw material of this necklace is extremely tough iron in the world, and it ranks fourth in the immortal column of the god material list. ”

"Divine material list? Is it the ranking list of the world's natural treasures? ”

"Yes. According to the different properties of the materials, this list is subdivided into several columns, such as immortality, rebirth, divine edge, etc., which correspond to the types of materials for defense, recovery, and offense. ”

"Master, have you talked about these things before?"

"Yes, I must have spoken!"

"You don't think you did."

"Stinky boy! Don't worry about going to class, recruit yourself! ”

"Hahaha! Master spare your life! Lu Yuan laughed heartily, as if he had returned to the warm time he had in Xuantian Sect before.

"By the way, the Soul Breaker Bell you mentioned earlier, can you separate your soul from that caster's body?"

Qing Xuanzi nodded: "Yes." I have practiced secret methods, and it is difficult for my soul to be refined by the enemy. When you kill that person, all you have to do is raise the bell. ”

"Good!"

Lu Yuan secretly swore that he must catch the murderer as soon as possible and sacrifice him with blood!

He added: "The Demon Town Tower has been destroyed for several years, and it is estimated that many clues are gone, so when I take a rest, I will go to the tower to have a look." ”

"Well, you have a good rest, the old man will go back to the Demon Tower first."

After resting for an hour, Lu Yuan pushed open the door and saw that Mu Rong and Qiu Jizi were already waiting outside the door.

"Xiao Yuan, the old man's life was saved by you, if there is anything in the future, my Lao Qiu will definitely come without saying a word!" Qiu Jizi touched his bald head and said loudly.

Mu Rong was holding two blue wooden boxes with a small pale cyan bell on them.

She smiled and said, "Have you rested?" Here, these two boxes are Qingling Pills, which were sent by the deacon of the Danfang before. And this, it's the soul bell that the head said. ”

Lu Yuan put away the bell, then took the box and opened it to take a look, and a pungent smell of medicine came to his face.

Those blue-black pills were lying neatly in the box.

Lu Yuan burst into ecstasy: "Master, you are saved!" ”

The group came to the Demon Town Tower, and Lu Yuan first went to the tomb of the master to worship. In the face of parting, he was extremely reluctant.

Qing Xuanzi's soul said in Lu Yuan's heart: "Xiao Yuan, gathering and dispersing is a common thing in the world, and it is also the ordinary love of the world. If a cultivator wants to explore the world, he must go through all kinds of emotions. Only through experience can we let go. ”

Lu Yuan said: "Well, the disciple understands. You also taught me before that in order to improve the realm, it is not enough to just enhance your cultivation, but you must also make your mind reach the same level, otherwise it is easy to get stuck in the entrance. Even if you are lucky enough to break through, it is easy to go crazy in the future. ”

"That's true, so we cultivators sometimes need to go down the mountain to practice, in addition to hitting the immortal fate, it is more to hone the mind."

The two talked for a while, and Lu Yuan walked to the ruins of the Demon Suppression Tower. He decided to start by investigating the demon thunder that day.

He chose a piece of metal from the tower.

The fragment was about three fingers wide, gray and yellow, and the power of the lightning left a charred crack on it.

Qing Xuanzi's remnant soul said: "To release the demon thunder, you need to sacrifice the fox demon. Once the type of fox demon sacrificed by this thunder is identified through this burn, you can go to the corresponding fox demon settlement to find clues, and it is possible to find out the murderer behind the scenes. ”

Lu Yuan looked at it for a while and put it in the Qiankun bag.

"Master, the disciple remembers!"

"But there are nearly a thousand types of demon thunder, can you find ......?"

Lu Yuan comforted: "Don't worry, the disciple's luck has always been very good!" ”

"Good! As a teacher, I believe in you. Ah, it's not too early. You should have gone back sooner, too. My obsession is near the Demon Tower, so I can't leave this place to walk with you. ”

"Master!" Lu Yuan was crying, "Take care!" ”

Lu Yuan bowed three times to the cemetery of Qing Xuanzi, exhaled a long breath, and turned to say goodbye to Qiu and Mu.

Qiu Jizi patted him on the shoulder, smiled awkwardly at him, and then silently watched him go away.

Mu Rong on the side suddenly ran towards Lu Yuan, her apricot eyes misty.

"Obuchi!"

Lu Yuan turned his head and smiled warmly:

"Senior sister, when I was young, you told me to part...... Don't cry. ”

She didn't speak, she stretched out her hand to grab Lu Yuan, and the trick of the stealth technique came as she wished.

Mu Rong's wrist emitted a pale blue light.

The soft light instantly surrounded the two of them, and their figures disappeared.

Mu Rong hugged him tightly.

"Division...... Masters. Lu Yuan's face suddenly turned red like a fire, and his heart was beating wildly, as if it was about to fly out of his chest.

With tears in her eyes, she lowered her head and kissed Lu Yuan lightly on the forehead.

"Xiao Yuan, live well!"

……

The woods were shady, and Lu Yuan quickly ran down the stairs down the mountain.

There was only the rustle of feet stepping on fallen leaves.

The cultivation of the mental method made him deaf and clear, and he could feel more things that ordinary people could not perceive.

A wind blade suddenly came out from behind!

His ears moved, and his body flashed to the right.

But the speed of the wind blade was too fast, and it directly slashed into Lu Yuan's left back.

Lu Yuan was like a kite with a broken string, and was directly hit into the bushes.

"Hehe, so vulnerable." A hoarse voice rang out.

Another shrill voice said, "Let's see if I'm dead." ”

"Do you still need to see this? He is only a first-order demon master, I am a second-order avenue master, just now I was a full-strength blow, and it is strange if I don't die! ”

The two of them, one tall and one short, were both wearing green cloth clothes, covering their faces, and were about to walk over to see.

Suddenly, a sword light flashed out of the bushes and slashed at the tall man in front of him.

He hurriedly used the peachwood sword to block it, avoiding the sword wind.

The short man was surprised: "Master...... Senior brother, he, he, he's not dead! ”

Lu Yuan got up from the bushes, looked at the two people behind him, quickly activated the light spirit talisman, and immediately ran away.

The two of them cultivated above him, and when they saw Lu Yuan using a spell to escape, they also recited the magic trick. Their calves were surrounded by two pillars of small cyan whirlwinds, and they immediately chased after Lu Yuan.

Faster than Lu Yuan!

Look at it and catch up, the two of them concentrated at the same time and sensed the power of the five elements, and a three-zhang thick Aoki hurricane roared down from the sky, instantly enveloping Lu Yuan and encircling him in it.

There was a constant crackling sound in the wind. Lu Yuan's figure kept spinning in it.

After wringing for a while, the dwarf said: "Don't use too much force, otherwise the corpse will be all broken, and the head will not recognize this kid, and we will be busy in vain." ”

The tall man said, "It's been so long, and it's time to die." Okay, check it out. ”

After saying that, he gestured, and the hurricane gradually dissipated.

I saw a figure standing tall in the place where the hurricane had dispersed.

What? This kid is still ...... Still standing?!

Their eyes almost fell to the ground.

Lu Yuan didn't even tear his clothes.

He looked at them with a smile and swung his neck from side to side: "If you scrape, do you want the master to take off his clothes?" ”

The dwarf was angry: "Damn, did you hit a ghost today?" Let's do it again! ”

The two nodded, and two raging fires erupted from their hands.

The extremely high temperature flames completely engulfed Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan raised his sword in his hand and walked towards them with a pillar of fire.

The alien soul necklace continued to release mysterious power, completely enveloping Lu Yuan's body.

The flames didn't burn Lu Yuan at all, only a few inches in front of his clothes.

A wave of fear welled up in the hearts of the two of them.

"Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, if you are a realm higher, I can't burn you to death!"

"Red Jiaoyan Pillar!"

As soon as the words fell, two pillars of fire with a diameter of one zhang like a dragon roared out of the hands of the two of them, and the temperature suddenly rose.

The surrounding trees were scorched, almost like a wildfire.

The big move of the two of them only burned the flame slightly into half an inch.

Lu Yuan continued to walk towards them.

The hole cards have been handed in, and endless fear suddenly envelops the hearts of the two.

This Lu Yuan ......

Is it a human or a demon!

"I've heard you all, hehe. Gu Nanfeng sent you to ambush me, but now he has fled by himself. ”

The two couldn't hide it, so they had to ask, "Escaped?" So who is the head now? ”

"The current head of the house...... Go back and see for yourselves! ”

When the two saw that the conspiracy was exposed, they couldn't kill him, so where did they dare to go back. They looked at each other for a moment, then turned and fled into the forest.

Lu Yuan knew that he was not yet completely sure of killing a monk who had surpassed his own rank, and he didn't want to chase it anymore.

He just wanted to deliver the antidote pill to the master as soon as possible.

However, Gu Nanfeng sent people to hunt down and kill this revenge, and he must be avenged!

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he saw the two of them suddenly fall down from the air, with a few crisp sounds, it should be some broken bones.

They were rolling on the ground in pain.

Lu Yuan looked at it fixedly, and saw Mu Rong and Qiu Jizi waving to him in the distance.

After a few ups and downs, the two came to Lu Yuan.

Qiu Jizi said: "This big sister, she wants to send you down the mountain secretly with me." Hehe! No, just in time. ”

Mu Rong's face turned red, and she said coquettishly: "Elder! How do you ......"

"Thank you both!" Lu Yuan said, "They were sent by Gu Nanfeng to hunt me down, please ask Uncle Shi to hand them over to the Heavenly Punishment Table." ”

Mu Rong looked at them, and her face suddenly turned cold. She drew her sword and stabbed them all.

The two were trapped by Qiu Jizi's supernatural powers and couldn't dodge. After a few swords, the skin was already open. They couldn't stand the pain of flesh and skin, and the bones of their hands and feet were broken, so they had to keep begging for mercy:

"Grandma, spare your life! We don't dare anymore! It's all to blame for Gu Nanfeng, who suffered a thousand cuts! We...... We're just doing what we're told! ”

Qiu Jizi shouted angrily: "Acting on orders? He Gu old thief wants you to die immediately, will you die? ”

After saying that, he opened his five fingers, and a huge fireball roared out of his hand, instantly burning the two of them to ashes.

"It's okay," Lu Yuan's eyes showed murderous aura, "Gao Yang's head has just taken over the sect, and there are a lot of things to deal with. These little things will not bother him. ”

The three of them talked a few more words, and after exchanging respects, Lu Yuan quickly rushed back.
