Chapter 993: Returning to Baihe City

imself half a body ahead of Su Qing. Lu Xiaoteng pulled out a round shield with sharp spikes from his storage bag. This shield was incredibly sturdy, boasting powerful defense and even a counterattack...“Just so-so.” Zhou Tong sneered. If that was all he had, today he might as well give Lu Xiaitian a good show. After all, it was Lu Xiaitian who started this mess. At the moment, while Zhou Tong resisted the Town Demon Tower, he also controlled his flying sword to attack Lu Xiaitian.

...Zhou Tong's smile on his face quickly became stiff. One by one, the spirit-suppressing towers flew out, their lights connecting into a sea of brilliance, a heavy pressure like that of mountains descending upon him. Zhou Tong's breath caught in his throat, his entire face flushed red. He was barely able to withstand the pressure from the treasure towers, let alone have any energy left to control the flying sword.

A resounding slap echoed through the air, landing squarely on Zhou Tong's face. His left cheek instantly swelled up, resembling a pig's face.

Slap! That slap just now wasn't enough, here comes another one.

A series of slaps landed on Zhou Tong's face, leaving it unrecognizable. Even Mo Xue from the Virtual Heaven Gate and the few Yuan Ying cultivators present couldn't bear to watch. After all, a Yuan Ying cultivator was beaten like this, where would he put his face in the future

Peng Yishan was even more shocked. His strength was about the same as Zhou Tong's, yet Zhou Tong had been utterly powerless against Lu Xiaitian. Even if he joined in, they would probably only humiliate themselves.

"Lu Xiaoteng, there will come a day when I will repay you tenfold for today's humiliation!" Zhou Tong glared at Lu Xiaoteng with bloodshot eyes. Since he stepped onto the path of cultivation, no one had ever humiliated him like this.

"Since you forced me to leave the Moon-Gazing Array through a teleportation circle, this day has been your undoing."

Lu Xiaoteng let out a cold smile, kicking Zhou Tong with one foot, sending him flying and spitting blood. He felt immensely satisfied in his heart. Back when he was at Diyan Mountain, this guy looked down on him arrogantly. After leaving Wangyuetai, Zhou Tong had abused him nearly to death. Now, he had gotten back some interest.

“Get lost!”

Let me know if I can help with anything else!

Zhou Tong was filled with shame and wanted to die. He didn't even care about Peng Yijian and Mo Xue, so he left alone.

Peng Yijian, with a face ashen, also followed closely behind, not uttering a word. What was there to say when they had already quarreled Mo Xue apologetically bowed to Lu Xiaottian and then left with Peng Yijian.

“It seems that Brother Lu is a man of many stories.” Qiao Lan smiled, looking at Lu Xiaotian.

This text is empty.

"It's just an old story. This guy is lucky, he didn't run into us when we returned from the secret realm. Killing him now would cause a lot of trouble."

Lu Xia Tian shook his head, not taking Zhou Tong's matter to heart. The two were natural enemies, even without what just happened, they would inevitably clash whenever they met privately.

After Zhou Tong's ordeal, the way back to Bai He City was smooth sailing. Occasionally, Lu Xiaotian would encounter stray ghost lords, but he was too lazy to bother with them. He simply flew past them, leaving behind expressions of abject terror in their eyes.

“See, Ancestor!” Greeting Lu Xia Tian was the Baihe City Lingxiao Palace cultivator's one as always worshiping and fanatic eyes.

"Lu Shidi, you're finally back! I was worried sick," said Chen He Nian, seeing Lu Xia Tian return. He let out a sigh of relief and greeted him with a laugh.

...and then followed by Xiao Xiangyu.

“Lu Shidi, who are these” Xiao Xiangyu looked at Wu Zi Yuan, Qiao Lan, and the eight-legged demon ox behind Lu Xia Tian in surprise.

“These are my friends, they are wandering cultivators and came to visit me at Lingxiao Palace.” Lu Xia Tian introduced the two people and the ox.

"Haha, welcome, welcome to the friends of Lu junior brother!"

Chen He Nian was overjoyed to hear this. As an unbacked, wandering cultivator, Chen He Nian naturally wouldn't easily believe him. However, since Lu Xiao Tian claimed to be a friend, he wouldn't necessarily pose a threat to Ling Xiao Palace. In the current situation, Lu Xiao Tian suddenly brought several Yuan Ying-level powerhouses to help, which would undoubtedly bring immeasurable benefits to bolstering Ling Xiao Palace's reputation.

With these brought by Lu Xia Tian, plus the Yuan Ying cultivators from Lingxiao Palace itself, besides Qingdan Palace and Gujian Sect, which other sect could simultaneously summon so many Yuan Ying-level powerhouses

The Eight-Armed Demon Ox Beast's wounds were still not healing well. After receiving the Healing Spirit Grass from Lu Xia Tian, it immediately went into seclusion to recover.

Wu Zi Yuan and Qiao Lan didn't bother cultivating. They were used to the Chi Yan Continent and the abundant spiritual energy in the secret realm. In this barren land, there was nothing much to cultivate. Relatively speaking, the two were more curious about this unfamiliar environment.

While strolling through Bai He City, I occasionally stopped to ask one or two cultivators about the current situation or anything related to the Moon Viewing Cultivation Realm.

Lu Xiaitian pulled Chen He Nian aside and briefly explained what happened with Zhou Tong.

"This scoundrel is so vicious! In vain, Lingxiao Palace and Xuanbing Gate have always had a good relationship. He's so insidious. Brother Lu, don't worry, I didn't really do anything to him. Just gave him a lesson, he won't be able to brag about this everywhere anymore." Chen He Nian listened, immediately furious and said.

Lu Xiaitian smiled inwardly. Chen He Nian's expression was naturally exaggerated. If he hadn't become a Yuan Ying cultivator, Chen He Nian would have taken it nine times out of ten, after all, he wouldn't offend the Yuan Ying cultivators of Xuan Bing Men for him.

This old monster grew up in Lingxiao Palace since he was young. His feelings for Lingxiao Palace are something he can't compare to. Right now, his lifespan is running out, and he still prioritizes the interests of Lingxiao Palace in his eyes.

Chen He Nian had different aspirations from his own, which was understandable. After all, he was far stronger than those who did everything for their own selfish gain. Lu Xiao Tian felt that he couldn't compare to Chen He Nian in this aspect.

"It's good that nothing happened. Senior Brother, you have much more experience and prestige than I do. I'd trouble you to help me gather some Thunder Sand, the more the better. I have some spiritual herbs here, with quite a few years on them. They should be enough to trade for Thunder Sand."

Lu Xiaitian put some spiritual herbs that had been cultivated to maturity in the barrier for several thousand years, a rarity even for Yuan Ying cultivators, into a storage bag and handed it to Chen Hunyuan.

“Don’t worry, Lu Shijie, I will definitely handle this for you. Our world of cultivation under the moonlight and Nanhuang both have some Yuan Ying Lei Xiu cultivators. It shouldn't be difficult to get what we need in exchange.” Chen Hueren had sharp eyes, “My junior brother has been busy outside for a while, he must need to rest. Just take some time to relax. I’ll take care of the matter with Pilli Thunder Sand.”

“Then thank you, senior brother.” Lu Xiaoteng nodded. Right now, he indeed had a lot to do. Refining the thunderbolt fire beads was one thing, just waiting for the thunder sand to be procured. There was also a more important matter: only by returning to Baihe City could Lu Xiaoteng temporarily rest assured. After all, this refining process was too crucial and couldn't be disturbed in the slightest. And Lu Xiaoteng had never placed such importance on something before, he didn't want to risk staying in the secret realm.

After instructing Chen He Nian and Xiao Xiang Yu to take on all his affairs, Lu Xiao Tian also entered his residence and set up barriers around it.

After ensuring all traces of presence were concealed, Lu Xia Tian sat cross-legged within a room enveloped by multiple layers of restrictions. In his palm lay a small, azure crystal the size of a fingernail – the Panqing Stone.

Lu Xiaotian's face flashed a hint of solemnity. His palms stretched out in front of him, palms facing each other. The cyan stone was restrained by his mana and hovered between his two palms.
