Lu Yan and Zhao Sirong explored the village again, but found nothing, not a single living person.

Not even a single live livestock.

Real chickens and dogs are not left.

"In such a world, it is too difficult for ordinary people to survive."

Lu Yan sighed secretly.

Ordinary people are precarious.

No matter how hard you live, you may be killed by these strange existences for some reason.

For example, the martial spirit when he was backing the mountain village, the spider demon he encountered when he was chasing Li Cangxin, and the strange monster now.

Entire villages and towns became extinct in one day.

Of course, this may also have something to do with today's troubled times.

In the heyday of the Great Chu Dynasty, the national strength was strong, the strong were like clouds, the army of warriors suppressed the world, what demons and monsters, martial spirits or demons, all were exterminated, or shrunk up, how dare they come out to stir up the wind and rain.

And now in the troubled times, the gate valve is fighting, and all the demons and monsters have come out.

In today's world, who can smooth out the situation and reproduce the prosperous era of Great Chu?

It is precisely because the more he sees, the more he knows, and the more he experiences, that Lu Yan is more determined to become stronger.

His current strength is not bad, but if he encounters a grandmaster-level demon monster, or a monster that is more terrifying than the grandmaster, will he, like the people in this village, be slaughtered without any resistance?

The world is big.

There are seventy-two states in Great Chu, and Xuanzhou is only one of them.

And Xuanzhou, there are 28 counties and 6 counties in Lingdong, which is only a corner of Xuanzhou.

He's still small.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Lu Yan's mind.

"Brother Lu, how about going with me to pick up Zhao Hao, I'm afraid that he will also be ambushed."

Zhao Sirong said.

Lu Yan nodded.

The two of them left the busy witch village and headed towards Zhao Hao's route to pursue the strange monster, but they didn't go far before they saw Zhao Hao coming this way.

"Zhao Hao, are you okay?"

Seeing Zhao Hao, Zhao Sirong breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay, I've already killed that monster, by the way, what about you, have you killed that monster?"

Zhao Hao said.

"We chased into the village of Busy Witch and encountered an ambush."

Zhao Sirong briefly told the story.

After Zhao Hao heard this, his face changed, and he said: "I didn't expect that there was really an ambush, fortunately Brother Lu helped, Brother Lu, I blamed you before." ”

After speaking, Zhao Hao bowed to Lu Yan.

"Brother Zhao doesn't need to be like this, you are also eager to kill monsters, how can I blame you."

Lu Yan smiled.

For some reason, when he looked at Zhao Hao, he always felt a little strange.

Especially when they first met just now, when Zhao Hao looked at him, he couldn't help but feel a little hairy in his heart.

But he looked at Zhao Hao carefully and observed secretly, but he didn't find anything abnormal.

"Perhaps, I'm overthinking."

Lu Yan said secretly.

"By the way, Brother Lu, are you going to Lingwang City?"

Zhao Sirong asked.

"Yes, now that the demons and demons are in turmoil, the gates have joined forces to fight the demons in Lingwang City, and I want to do my part."

Lu Yan said, the justice he said was awe-inspiring.

"Brother Lu's righteousness, Si Rong admires, we have been patrolling the surrounding area for the past few days to prevent demons and monsters from breaking into the rear, and we will take turns in a few days and return to Lingwang City, Brother Lu might as well go with us."

Zhao Sirong said.

"That's good."

Lu Yan nodded.

If he has the opportunity to catch the Zhao line, Lu Yan will naturally not miss it.

And looking at Zhao Sirong and Zhao Hao, they are not very old, at most they will not be more than thirty years old, but they have such cultivation, and their status among the Zhao family must not be low.

Befriending them will be beneficial to him.

The three returned to their previous liquor store and joined up with three of their men.

The two big men and the woman who were poisoned before, after some forced poisoning, barely controlled the poison with qi and blood pressure.

Zhao Sirong instructed one of his subordinates to take the three of them back to Lingwang City first and find a doctor to help remove the poison.

And they continue to patrol outside.

In the blink of an eye, three days later.

In the past three days, they have not encountered any more demons and monsters.

At this time, there were other teams to replace Zhao Sirong and them, and Lu Yan followed Zhao Sirong, Zhao Hao and others towards Ling Wangcheng.

Soon, a huge ancient city appeared in front of it.

This is the most majestic giant city Lu Yan has seen so far.

Baicao City and Nanyi City can't be compared.

The city wall is five zhang high, blue-gray, thick and simple, and has experienced the precipitation of the years.

In the distance, you can see groups of armed troops patrolling the city wall.

Lingwang City, according to legend, was a thousand years ago, the royal city of a king of the Great Chu Dynasty, and the title of this king was Lingwang, so it was named.

Lingwang City, sitting in the south and facing north.

On the east and west sides, there are all continuous mountains, treacherous and steep, with thousands of walls, which are difficult for mortals to cross.

"Now, the demon is in the north of Lingwang City, usually hiding in the mountains, and will attack at any time, and the masters of the various gate valves have gathered in Lingwang City, forming a stalemate with the demons."

Zhao Sirong explained.

Lu Yan showed a puzzled look and said, "Looking at the terrain, although the mountains on both sides of Lingwang City are treacherous, they can't stop the demons, right?" ”

Although the mountains on the east and west sides of Lingwang City are steep and difficult for mortals to climb, they will definitely not be able to stop the martial artists who break the limit.

And demons and evil spirits, most of them are transformed from fierce birds and beasts, their bodies are strong, and the contestants are more than equal, plus the innate advantage, how can they stop it?

Why didn't those demonic armies bypass both sides of Lingwang City and attack other places?

"At this point, many people also find it strange, those demons seem to be staring at Lingwang City, and they have to break through Lingwang City."

"And the demon army, obeying the orders of the demon king, some people speculate whether the demon king wants to kill someone in the Lingwang City, or if there is something in the Lingwang City that attracts the demon king."

Zhao Sirong explained.

As he spoke, he walked and soon came to the gate of the city.

At the gate of the city, there are naturally heavy guards, and they are all masters, Lu Yan swept it away at a glance and found that several people had sharp eyes and strong breaths, and they were definitely strong men at the level of Wuhou.

Zhao Sirong and Zhao Hao, although they are the children of the Zhao family, they also have to go through a strict inspection before entering the city.

Lu Yan is naturally no exception.

After some inspection, a few people were let into the city.

The streets, paved with bluestone, are more than six zhang wide.

On both sides of the street, the sound of noisy markets and the variety of shops are full of people coming and going, and it is a completely different world from the outside of the city.

In addition to ordinary people, you can also see many warriors.

There is a big difference between martial artists and ordinary people, because in the limit-breaking stage, the potential of the physical body is developed, and the body is often extremely burly.

Every time you break through the door, you will make your body taller and stronger.

But after arriving at the Wuhou Realm, it will not be like this.

Wuhou Realm, what is developed is the potential of the deep bones, mainly refining the bones, condensing the flesh, and starting from the outside in, focusing on quality rather than volume.

Therefore, after Lu Yan broke through Wuhou, although he broke several levels in a row, his figure did not change much.

After arriving at the grandmaster, it is even more so, focusing on the refining of the five internal organs.

"Brother Lu, we are going back to resume our lives, my family lives in Mingxiang Mansion in Dongcheng, if there is anything, you can come to me at any time."

Zhao Sirong said.

"Okay, I'm going to disturb Miss Sirong then."

Lu Yan nodded.

He actually wanted to ask Zhao Sirong about the 'heart split', but when he saw Zhao Hao and the other three present, it was difficult to speak.

The less people know about this matter, the better.

Don't worry, it's not too late to find Zhao Sirong another day.

"By the way, Brother Lu, in order to motivate the warriors to hunt demons, the Zhao clan has issued corresponding rewards, hunting a demon and evil monster, you will have corresponding combat exploits, you can exchange their respective resources in my Zhao clan, you killed two monsters before, I will also report it truthfully."

"Also, in order to thank the warriors of the various gate lords for coming to help, my Zhao clan will take out a large amount of martial food, and all the martial artists who come to help can be purchased at a discount of twenty percent, which is much cheaper than outside, if Brother Lu needs it, don't miss it."

Before leaving, Zhao Sirong said again.

"Thank you, Miss Sirong, for telling me."

Lu Yan clenched his fists.

These two points are really good, and they can greatly increase the enthusiasm of the warriors who come to help.

said goodbye, and Zhao Sirong and Zhao Hao left.

Lu Yan walked around the city alone, he was in Lingwang City, and he might stay for more than a day or two, so the primary purpose was to find a place to live.

Guest houses are out of the question.

He needs to cultivate, the range of activities in the inn is too small, there is no private space, and he can't cultivate at all.

It is better to rent an annex.

But after turning around and investigating, I found that the separate courtyards were all rented out.

Lu Yan wanted a spacious and quiet house with enough privacy for cultivation, and other martial artists also needed it.

During this time, most of the gate valves in the six counties of Lingdong have sent people to support.

As a result, the number of warriors in Lingwang City has skyrocketed, and those wide courtyards have long been rented.

Some warriors even rented to ordinary people's homes.

Ordinary people's homes vacated a few houses, and the privacy was better than that of inns.

Lu Yan was helpless, and he also planned to find people in the city to rent a house.

After looking around, I finally found a suitable set.

The owner of the house, who sells tofu, has only three people, a couple about thirty years old, and a seven or eight-year-old daughter, who looks sweet and cute, and her nickname is Tofu.

This family, the ancestral tradition is to make tofu, it is said that it has been passed down to the fifth generation, so the family background is not bad, the house is quite large, relatively speaking, the privacy is okay.

A few rooms were freed up for Lu Yan, which was enough for Lu Yan to practice on weekdays.

"Warrior-sama, if there is anything on weekdays, just give me orders."

The owner of the house, named Zhou Xiang, is honest and honest, with dark skin.

Behind Zhou Xiang, his daughter Tofu looked at Lu Yan curiously and fearfully, and when Lu Yan looked at her, he hurriedly hid behind Zhou Xiang.

"I just asked you, do you know where to buy martial arts?"

Lu Yan asked.

"Two miles to the north, there is a restaurant opened by Lord Zhao, and there is martial arts for sale on it."

Zhou Xiang replied honestly.

Lu Yan nodded, the dried martial arts he brought had already been eaten, and he had to buy a batch of martial arts.

20% off purchase, it is still very cost-effective.

Anyway, I made a lot of money on the way.

After asking Zhou Xiang a few more questions, Lu Yan went out and headed north.

Zhao's martial arts residence.

It is a very popular name, and many restaurants opened by gate valves will take similar names.

Zhao Sirong is right, foreign martial artists buy martial food, and sure enough, they are twenty percent off, and second-level martial food is only forty taels and one catty.

Even if the Zhao family took out a large amount of martial arts food for sale, it was in short supply, and a martial artist could only buy ten catties of second-grade martial food a day.

Ask for a monthly pass, smash it, and don't pity me because I'm handsome.
