Lu Xuan's reaction was naturally extremely fast, and as soon as his mind moved, a soft mana was released, catching the falling figure.

And behind this figure, another cloud of black mist rushed over, more than half a person tall, with teeth and claws, exuding a fierce aura.

Lu Xuan raised his hand and pointed at it, and in an instant, a large net of mana was woven and formed, locking the black shadow.

The mana net contracted and restrained, and as soon as he grabbed it, the black mist dissipated, and the things in the net appeared in their original form, squeaking and screaming.

It's a big black mouse.

Lu Xuan held the mana net in one hand, and his face showed surprise:

"A demon beast at the peak of qi refining?"

The rat had shiny fur and was the size of a piglet, struggling in the mana net.

It was not uncommon for demon beasts at the peak level of qi refining, and Lu Xuan was surprised that this thing would actually appear in Sancai City.

This is a holy land of Confucianism and Taoism, suppressed by the power of the saints, and the demon beasts will never dare to enter, that is, the Agricultural Sacred Institute usually engages in breeding, and they have to use special formations to isolate the breath left by the Confucian saints.

Although the Drunken Wind Tower is located in the outer city, it is also within the scope of protection, and no one would have imagined that there would be an incident of demon beast attacks here.

Lu Xuan's thoughts were like electricity, and he suddenly had a guess in his heart.

He Yuanfeng used the art of sacrificing Taoism to intercept the world's talents and break the Confucian Taoism, although it was stopped before success, but it still had some impact on the luck of Confucianism and Taoism.

So much so that in Sancai City, the holy statue was covered with dust, and the holy power was unstable, allowing the nearby demon beasts to take advantage of the loopholes.

This big black mouse should be the first demon beast to be spotted in the city, but Lu Xuan felt that it would definitely not be the last.

He cast a spell to put away the demon beast that had been caught in the net, and prepared to send it to the Agricultural Sacred Courtyard later, and handed it over to the students there to make him confess his sins.

Cheng Lingzhu stepped forward and talked to the girl who fell downstairs.

The woman claimed to be named Ping'er, a service staff in Zuixiang Building, who worked hard every day, but she didn't expect to be attacked by a demon beast when she got up to wash and comb today.

She was not injured, but she was simply frightened by the window, and fell from the stairs with a stumble.

After thanking Cheng Lingzhu, the stumbling female cultivator tiptoed a little to the ground and flew back upstairs.

Taking advantage of this time, Lu Xuan contacted Zhang Xun and Chen Xu.

Although these two people are now busy dealing with the aftermath of the He Yuanfeng incident, it is better to talk to them about the demon beasts entering the city to cause chaos and easily affect their production and life.

After doing all this, Lu Xuan stretched his waist and continued to go shopping with Cheng Lingzhu.

The entry of the demon beast into the city is not a big deal, and the statue of the saint is dusty, and it is not completely invalid.

The people who can sneak into the city are all demons, and the city is full of monks, just put up a notice and pay attention.

………………

Ding Xiang Building.

Lu Xuan and Cheng Lingzhu were having morning tea.

"There is news from Nanling, the legendary barbarian god is suspected of being revived, let's go there in a few days...... Hmm, it's delicious...... I happened to have an apprentice there, so I stopped by to see him. ”

Lu Xuan swallowed the food that Cheng Lingzhu fed into his mouth.

"Apprentice?"

Hearing his words, Cheng Lingzhu became curious.

"Over the years, I have accepted a total of four apprentices, the first two have soared, and the one in Nanling is the third, and I haven't seen him for many years."

Lu Xuan replied.

His requirements for accepting apprentices are quite high, and the four apprentices are all true immortals.

Lu Xuan can describe it like this-

The big apprentice is a great talent, and his talent is amazing, and he can write a traditional fantasy of eight million words in his life, and he is a god who kills gods and Buddhas all the way, and he belongs to the standard genius flow fantasy hero.

The second apprentice is scheming, he has no last resort, he kills without seeing blood, and his vest is thousands of layers, which is more than the patriarch of Daoyan Sect, and he has laid out thousands of years, and has achieved his own road to immortality.

The three apprentices were born in an ordinary background, but they were eloquent and strategic, and they established the Immortal Dynasty in the land of Lingnan, and fought against the top immortal gate of the demon clan [Wansheng Mountain], sheltering countless people, and the Immortal Dynasty was full of luck.

The four apprentices were born elves, an immortal seed left over from ancient times, there are no shackles of cultivation in her body, as long as there is enough time, she can become an immortal on the ground.

Four apprentices, three men and one woman, throw out any one, can amaze an era.

"And I'm just their master."

Lu Xuan said.

The two chatted while eating, and on the wall of Dingxiang Building, there were many portraits, all of which were "celebrity group photos" who had eaten here.

Among them, there is a young man in a long robe, with a gentle smile, and a palm is pressed on the head of the young man next to him, the young man's face is moved, and the picture is very warm.

"That's the identity you used to be?"

After the two finished eating morning tea, Cheng Lingzhu saw Lu Xuan staring at this portrait and guessed the origin of this painting.

"That's right."

Lu Xuan nodded:

"The young man next to him is the son of the owner of Dingxianglou, after being influenced by me, the prodigal son turned back, changed his past, and later entered the Shangsheng Academy to practice......"

When Lu Xuan said this, he suddenly stopped talking and gestured to Cheng Lingzhu with his eyes.

"What's wrong?"

Cheng Lingzhu was stunned for a moment.

"You're ...... here"

Lu Xuan pointed to the corner of his mouth.

Cheng Lingzhu thought it was a scumbag, and thinking that she would have to walk around the city later, she took out her handkerchief.

Unexpectedly, after wiping it, Lu Xuan still pointed to the corner of his mouth.

"Is it still there?"

Cheng Lingzhu asked.

“…… Come here. ”

Lu Xuan stretched out his hand.

So Cheng Lingzhu moved his body, Lu Xuan pulled the hair around her ear, and while she was unprepared, he suddenly lowered his head and kissed the corner of the girl's lips.

"Alright, no."

Lu Xuan is colorful.

Cheng Lingzhu's pretty face suddenly turned red, and he reached out to hit him, but when his little hand fell on Lu Xuan's chest, he was reluctant to really exert himself, so he could only slap it a few times.

Lu Xuan begged for mercy, naturally admitting his mistake and accepting punishment, while pondering how to commit it again next time.

………………

"We're now at the boundaries of the South Ridge."

On the flying boat, Cheng Lingzhu spread out a map.

"Let's go to Nanling by land, and when we come back, we can take the waterway and cross the sea."

Lu Xuan leaned over to her, "I heard that in addition to the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, there is also the Shark Country...... It's hard to come out of it, so you might as well check it out. ”

This was the seventh day that the two of them left Sancai Academy and headed for Nanling.

After the demon beast incident, Lu Xuan and Cheng Lingzhu stayed in the Confucian and Taoist holy city for another three days, and during this time, they also helped catch a lot of little demon beasts.

The monks of the Sancai Academy rearranged the formation outside the city to prevent the demon beasts from exploiting the loopholes.

Before the aftermath of He Yuanfeng's incident subsided, this set of formations would have to run in Sancai City for a while.

"Okay, it's up to you."

Cheng Lingzhu nodded in agreement.

The deep sea is terrifying, in addition to the monstrous waves and strange mid-sea fields, there may be fierce beasts hidden beneath the surface of the sea, even as a monk, there is a danger of falling.

Of course, with Lu Xuan's strength, there is naturally no need to worry about this.

With him, Cheng Lingzhu always feels very relieved.
