"We can go out now."
Luo Xiu stood up and said to Lu Mengyao beside him.
For the past ten days, he has been studying formations, and Lu Mengyao has always been on the side.
"Do you still know formations?" Lu Mengyao's face showed surprise.
As far as she knew, Luo Xiu had never been exposed to anything about formations when he entered the martial arts hall at the age of ten. As for Luo Xiu, he only started to learn about formations more than half a month ago and had already reached the level of a fifth order formation master, she couldn't believe it.
Luo Xiu did not say that he was already at the level of a fifth level array master, after all, this kind of thing is too unimaginable. If it were not for being able to gain inspiration from the original law diagram of the birth and death wheels in the heavens, he would not have been able to reach this level in such a short period of time.
Since he couldn't explain it, Luo Xiu didn't say much. It was his biggest secret, and Luo Xiu was well aware that he couldn't casually tell others about it, even his closest relatives couldn't easily tell it.
"I found the route map of the Ghost Valley formation in the cave."
Luo Xiu casually fabricated a reason and said, "Follow me and don't make any mistakes."
Seeing Lu Mengyao nod, Luo Xiu began to walk, sometimes moving forward, sometimes retreating, sometimes even taking steps or spinning in place.
Until a long time had passed, the scene in the valley suddenly changed. The originally lush scenery suddenly turned into a barren wasteland, and the entrances and exits of the valley finally became apparent.
Upon seeing this scene, Lu Mengyao finally realized that the scene in the valley before was just a false illusion caused by the formation. A barren and dead land was the true scene of the Ghost Yin Valley.
The primordial spirit of Su Jingyun has been annihilated by flying ashes, and the Yin Stone has also been taken by Luo Xiu. Apart from this sixth level trapped formation that can only enter but cannot exit, there is no danger in this Ghost Yin Valley.
Since the discovery of Guiyin Valley in the Guanlei Mountains, many warriors have died, lacking the level of a fifth level array mage. Once they enter the valley, they will be trapped inside.
Although there are five level array masters in Yunlong County and Douhai County, if they come here, they will not be trapped, but it is absolutely difficult to resist the attack of Yin Qi. It is estimated that Su Jingyun has devoured the souls of those who entered the Ghost Valley to recover their broken spirits.
After being trapped in the Ghost Yin Valley for more than ten days, Luo Xiu probably avoided the pursuit of the Yan family in the Left Star City.
However, he still dares not take Landing Mengyao to Left Star City, and he does not have any shapeshifting and bone changing pills to change his appearance. Once he is recognized, it will be really troublesome.
The only way is to bypass Left Star City and head to other cities in Douhai County to find the location of Leiwu Gate.
The encounter in Guiyin Valley, as well as the reminder from the Spirit of Reincarnation, made Luo Xiu very clear that his strength was still weak. Once he encountered greater danger, he might not even be able to protect himself, so it was naturally impossible for him to always bring down Mengyao.
If Su Jingyun had chosen to take away Lu Mengyao instead of him Luo Xiu, then she might have become another person now.
So, the top priority is to send Lu Mengyao to Leiwu Gate first.
Just before the two of them could leave the Guanlei Mountains, Luo Xiu sensed a powerful divine sense falling on him and Lu Mengyao. Immediately after, a middle-aged man in purple appeared in front of them.
In Luo Xiu's perception, the aura of this middle-aged man in purple is very strong, at least he is a strong person above the Refining God Martial Sect.
The middle-aged man in purple only gave Luo Xiu a faint glance, and then his gaze fell on Lu Mengyao. Although they were wearing hats and veils, each other had divine sense, and this disguise had no effect.
"Are you the girl with the Thunder Martial Token?" The middle-aged man in purple slowly spoke up and asked.
Upon hearing these words, Luo Xiu was taken aback. Could it be that this middle-aged man in purple also came to snatch the Thunder Martial Token?
"Yes, senior," Lu Mengyao answered truthfully.
The middle-aged man in purple nodded and then looked at Luo Xiu, "You have a lot of courage. You dare to kill people from the Yan family with just six layers of energy. This courage is worthy of praise."
Seeing the guarded faces of Luo Xiu and Lu Mengyao, the middle-aged man in purple said calmly, "You don't have to worry that I will snatch the Thunder Martial Token. I am Le Pengcheng, the protector of the Thunder Martial Sect. I heard that the person holding the Thunder Martial Token appears here..."
Before Le Pengcheng could finish speaking, Lu Mengyao exclaimed in surprise, "Are you Uncle Le?"
I saw Lu Mengyao take off her veil and say, "Uncle Le, I'm Mengyao."
"Mengyao?" Le Pengcheng first showed confusion on his face, and then seemed to remember something. His figure flashed and appeared in front of Lu Mengyao. "Are you Mengyao, the daughter of Brother Lu?"
"I heard that there was an accident at the Xiaoyao Sect. I wonder how Brother Lu is currently doing?"
"Father..."
From the conversation between Lu Mengyao and Le Pengcheng, Luo Xiu learned that when Lu Feichen was young, he had experienced and had a lifelong friendship with Le Pengcheng.
The Thunderbolt Token is an extremely important token of the Thunderbolt Sect. Those who hold the Thunderbolt Token can make a request to the Thunderbolt Sect. Generally, as long as the request is not too excessive, the Thunderbolt Sect will agree.
And it seems that Le Pengcheng's identity in the Thunder Martial Sect is extraordinary. He gave Lu Feichen a Thunder Martial Token like this back then.
"Hmph, the Yan and Duan families in the Left Star City are really tired of living. I dare to snatch the Thunder Martial Token from my niece Le Pengcheng, I don't know if it's alive or dead!"
After listening to Lu Mengyao's story, a fierce killing intent surged from Le Pengcheng's body, as if in his eyes, the two major aristocratic families in Left Star City were not worth mentioning.
Although Luo Xiu couldn't see through Peng Cheng's cultivation, judging by his life aura, he was probably a martial arts master at the same level as Lu Feichen.
"Since Brother Lu has already gone, you can practice well with Uncle Le at Leiwu Gate in the future, and strive to one day avenge your father," said Le Pengcheng.
"Thank you, Uncle Le. I will definitely work hard to cultivate and seek revenge for my father in the future," said Lu Mengyao with some excitement.
Before, Luo Xiu had never heard of Lu Mengyao mentioning the matter of revenge. Obviously, she only buried this hatred in her heart. The person who could seriously injure Lu Feichen must be the existence of the realm of King Wu.
"Uncle Le, this is Luo Xiu. He has great talent and can even kill experts from innate martial arts masters. If it weren't for him, Mengyao might not have seen Uncle you."
Lu Mengyao introduced Luo Xiu to Le Pengcheng and revealed the story of Luo Xiu killing Gou Jinchuan and Matsuyama Erxiong.
Luo Xiu secretly exclaimed, "It's terrible. He's a warrior with six levels of energy and can kill innate martial artists. Even a fool knows he must have had an extraordinary experience.".
Moreover, this Le Peng Cheng is a great master of martial arts, and with his shrewdness, one can naturally guess from hearing these words.
Sure enough, upon hearing Lu Mengyao's words, Le Pengcheng's gaze turned to Luo Xiu, with a flash of essence in his eyes. He smiled and said, "With such talent, you can come with me to Leiwu Sect. As long as you practice well and become a core disciple, it's not a problem."
Lu Mengyao had little experience and lacked scheming, but Luo Xiu saw an unusual meaning in Le Pengcheng's tone and gaze.
Luo Xiu immediately arched his hand and clasped his fist, saying, "I have become accustomed to being careless and don't like the constraints of the sect. I hope you can forgive me, senior."
He had already said this very tactfully, indicating that he didn't want to go to Leiwu Gate with him. If he said this and Le Pengcheng insisted on taking him away, it must be a ulterior motive.
However, Luo Xiu's statement may seem clever, but in reality, it is still a bit tender. The more he does not want to join the Lei Wu Sect, the more Le Pengcheng believes that there are secrets in him. The reason why he does not want to join the sect is because he is worried about exposing his secrets.
"Hehe, you don't want to join the Leiwu Sect, and I don't force you either. You have protected Mengyao's niece all the way to Douhai County. I, Le, should also thank you well. I will give you this little thing as a gift."
As he spoke, Le Pengcheng took out a jade talisman and said, "This is a fourth order formation jade talisman. Once summoned, it can unleash attacks comparable to those of the Refining Divine Martial Arts Sect."
Such a jade talisman is priceless, and any Qi Hai warrior would be moved. Luo Xiu couldn't help but suspect and pretended to be excited, thanking him for taking it over.
Le Pengcheng nodded with a smile and said, "If you come back to the city with me now, then the Yan and Duan families dare not touch you."
On the way back with the three of them, Le Pengcheng always intentionally or unintentionally asked Lu Mengyao about Luo Xiu's affairs.
Because Le Pengcheng was a close friend of his father, and Lu Mengyao didn't have any defense, she spoke out everything she knew.
In less than a year, I have gone from refining my body twice to reaching the sixth level of Qi Sea, and possess the strength comparable to that of a fourth level innate martial artist?
Luo Xiu was secretly anxious and regretted forgetting to tell Lu Mengyao not to tell anyone about his situation.
"Mengyao's niece, has your fire yang meridian been restored?" Le Pengcheng and Lu Feichen were close friends in life and death, and naturally knew about Lu Mengyao's previous occurrence of fire yang meridian diseases.
"Yes, thanks to Luo Xiu, he helped me cure the Fire Yang Jue Mai," Lu Mengyao replied with a smile, unaware that the more she said, the more dangerous Luo Xiu became.
The reason why she told Le Pengcheng about Luo Xiu's deeds was also to hope that Luo Xiu could receive the attention of the Leiwu Sect. However, it seemed that Luo Xiu did not want to join the Leiwu Sect, which made her feel a bit sad.
She was well aware that it was difficult for a warrior to achieve anything without the support of her sect. If she wanted to avenge her father Lu Feichen in the future, she could only choose to join the Leiwu Sect.
She also knew that if she had separated from Luo Xiu this time, they might have really gone their separate ways.
Undoubtedly, this is another choice. The last time she chose to leave Luo Xiu and marry Gou Jinchuan for the sake of her father. If it weren't for a sudden incident, all of this would have become a fact.
And this time, she had to choose to separate from Luo Xiu again in order to join the Leiwu Gate.
Half a day later, the three of them arrived at Left Star City.
Before entering the city, both the Yan family and the Duan family received news, but they did not show their presence, indicating that they both knew the identity and background of Le Pengcheng.
"The Yan Qiu you killed is the only son of the head of the Yan family, but as long as you become a disciple of the Lei Wu Sect, the Yan family will not dare to touch you," Le Pengcheng said with a smile.
Luo Xiu recognized the implied meaning behind it, but he didn't want to join the Leiwu Sect, so he pretended not to understand the other party's meaning.
"Luo Xiu, why don't you come with me to Leiwu Gate? It's difficult for you to cultivate alone without the support of the sect outside," Lu Mengyao advised.
"No, I plan to go around and experience," Luo Xiu said with a smile.
He was well aware that Le Pengcheng had not taken action now because of the presence of Lu Mengyao. Of course, he did not know what secrets were inside him. If he knew that Luo Xiu had a precious treasure like the Life and Death Pearl, even if Lu Mengyao was here, he would definitely have taken action.
If he followed to the Leiwu Gate, it would be a real case of sheep entering the tiger's mouth. There are many secrets and treasures that must be revealed, and he may not be able to save a small life.
In this world, there are both good and bad people, such as the Lord of Qingyun Temple, the Village Elder, and Ye Xiangdou, who belong to those with good character. However, this Le Pengcheng, Luo Xiu intuitively felt that he was not a good person.
Perhaps he is good to Lu Mengyao because he has a life and death relationship with Lu Feichen, but Luo Xiu is an outsider.
