e, came crashing down with the murky yin fire. 。Within this eerie, ghostly green phosphorescence, one cannot tell how many vengeful spirits and wandering souls it conceals. 。Lu Xia Tian's divine sen..."Lu Daoist." Seeing that it was Lu Xiaoteng, the smile on He Yunzi's face instantly vanished. Initially, he had dared to go to Liefeng Gorge because he was partially convinced by his reasoning. Mostly, however, he saw that Lu Xiaoteng had just advanced to the nascent soul realm and wouldn't suffer any real consequences if they didn't truly harm him. After all, in the chaotic demon domain, there were only so many powerful cultivators at the nascent soul realm. Besides irreconcilable grudges, most of them still needed to maintain face.
He Crane Cloud recently did have some dealings with the Magic Lizard Snake, wanting to exchange something from it for use in cultivating divine abilities. Seeing someone intrude on the Magic Lizard Snake's territory and causing a stir, he planned to sell the Magic Lizard Snake a favor, which is why they came together. Who knew they would run into Lu Xia Tian who had disappeared for decades! If Crane Cloud had known it was him, he wouldn't have come at all.
"So it's Lu Daoist." At this time, the Demon Lizard Snake also recognized Lu Xiaottian, after all, he was a prominent figure in the chaotic demon realm these years. His heart couldn't help but curse, wondering how his men had brought him such a disaster star. But it wasn't right either. Allowing his subordinates to run wild shouldn't have led to summoning Lu Xiaottian, a powerful cultivator at the nascent soul stage. They wouldn't even have the guts to do so.
"I wonder what brings Daoist Lu to visit me. If any of my junior disciples have offended you, I hope Daoist Lu will be magnanimous and overlook it."
In the sky, demonic energy churned. Dark Dao thought to himself that despite Lu Xiaoteng's fearsome reputation, he wouldn't stoop to a quarrel over such trivial matters with his juniors. When He Yunzi heard this, he inwardly cried out in dismay. He had once interacted with Lu Xiaoteng and knew that the latter was fiercely protective of his own. Back then, when Lu Xiaoteng's subordinate spirit bird Jinpeng committed atrocities, Lu Xiaoteng even fought him himself. It was later revealed that Lu Xiaoteng had imprisoned Jinpeng in Liefeng Canyon for a century of punishment. For an ordinary spirit bird, it would have been impossible to escape the daily lashings that led to death. Only recently did Jinpeng emerge from captivity, having narrowly avoided annihilation.
Even though he had made a grave mistake, Lu Xia Tian would rather punish himself than allow others to interfere. He was so protective of his own. Now, he personally went to the territory of the Demon Lizard Snake. There was no satisfactory result, if it didn't go as he wished, how could he give up
"Those little brats under your command killed quite a few of my people. Since I'm back, I naturally have to settle the score. Just hand over those few thousand monsters in this valley to me, it's not like I need you to be magnanimous." Lu Xiaoteng smiled upon hearing this.
This is a test.
"It's just some minor squabbles from those junior cultivators. Daoist Lu, why bother letting this affect our harmony" The demon lizard hissed internally, glancing at the hundreds of Stone Clan members. Even the most powerful among them were only at the early stage of the God Transformation realm—insignificant ants to him, or even his underlings at the Divine Void realm. How could this Lu Xia Tian be so oblivious."
"Little skirmishes Fine by me. I want the monsters in this valley, and you, fellow cultivator, will give them to me whether you're willing or not. My time is short, I have things to attend to back home. You do as you please." Lu Xiaoteng said bluntly. On his way to the valley, Lu Xiaoteng had been healing himself and recovering his strength. Right now, he was eager to return. The wood from the Buddhist sect that he'd absorbed into the devouring pouch needed a special method of preservation. He'd placed it in the Sumeru ring all these years, but he didn't know if anything had happened to it.
> It's just that his strength hasn't fully recovered before, and Lu Xia Tian didn't want to rashly return to Chaos Abyss. The Thousand Sound Temple party, he became the target of everyone, it's hard to guarantee that there are no villains secretly plotting against him.
“You,” the magic lizard hissed, anger blazing in its eyes. For many years, it had reigned supreme in this place steeped in demonic energy, and no one had dared to touch its whiskers. This Lu Xiaoteng, despite his fame, was so disrespectful!
“Brother Lizard, do not be angry,” Crane Cloudzi hurriedly advised.
"It's not that I'm getting angry here, it's just that this Lu surname is being too much!" The demon lizard was so enraged that a surge of anger welled up in its chest, almost causing it to back down. This Crane Cloudzi had come forward willingly to lend him a hand, but now before the fight even began, he had become the other side's spokesperson!
"Kill!" Lu Xia Tian was too lazy to waste any more time talking with the Demonic Lizard Serpent. Since he was going to offend it anyway, seeing the creature's conflicted and enraged expression, Lu Xia Tian had a good idea of what was going on. This monster was just angry that he didn't give him face. It didn't seem like it wanted to fight him over some expendable pawns.
Although the members of the Ye Shi clan were unaware of Lu Xia Tian's true strength, nor did they understand the realms of the Crane Cloud Child above his head or the demonic python beside him that exuded a terrifying aura, simply by listening to their conversation, anyone with half a brain could understand that these saints, while domineering in their actions, possessed absolute power that allowed them to suppress both the man and the demon without any hesitation.
Thinking of those deceased clan members and seeing the saint standing above them in the void, hatred and blood boiled within the Ye Shi people's hearts. Each raised their weapons, artifacts, and attacked the low-level Demon Lizard Snakes frozen stiff in the valley, losing most of their mobility.
Although the Ye Shi clan's cultivation base was low, facing these unavoidable objectives, they naturally solved these low-level Demon Lizard Snakes as easily as chopping melons and vegetables.
During that time, He Yunzi, with a flick of her sleeve, sent out a veil of white light that enveloped the entire valley. It obscured the view from the outside world, making it impossible to see what was happening inside.
“Farewell, both of you.” After the thousand-odd demon lizards in the valley were dealt with by the Yèshí clan, Lu Xiaottian said goodbye to He Yunzi and gestured. A hazy bloodlight enveloped hundreds of Yèshí clan members, rising into the sky. With a piercing eagle cry, a six-merging soul's eagle-shaped beast burst out from the air, circling once before carrying the hundreds of Yèshí clan members on its back.
The surging and swirling ice python in the air disappeared into Lu Xia Tian's body. Lu Xia Tian's body swayed, and he fell onto the back of the eagle-bodied beast. The eagle-bodied beast flapped its wings, disappearing into the clouds in the distance, swiftly flying like lightning.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
The Ye Shi clan felt this unprecedented speed, witnessing firsthand the extraordinary divine abilities displayed by Lu Xia Tian. Their hearts were shaken, and they found it difficult to express their astonishment in words.
“Crane Cloud, Friend, your visit this time is truly sincere. I’ve learned something from it. My Lizard Serpent Mountain isn't some blessed paradise, and I can't entertain someone as elegant as you. Please return, friend. Farewell.” Seeing that Lu Xiaoteng was leaving, the Demon Lizard Serpent didn't dare to disrespect Lu Xiaoteng, but it wouldn't be polite to Crane Cloud.
"Brother Xi, you've misunderstood. With Lu Xia Tian's extreme protective nature, this matter should be let go. It's for the best for both of us. Back then, he had just advanced to the Nascent Soul realm, and I invited the Blood Mosquito Demon to accompany me to Liefeng Gorge. At that time, we still ended up embarrassed. Let alone now, after so many years, Lu Xia Tian has become incredibly powerful. Based on Qianyin Temple's battle record, even if the two of us teamed up, we would likely be defeated by him."
He Yunzi explained.
