Chapter 237 - City Lord Lu"s Rescue

Chapter 237 - City Lord Lu"s Rescue

There were only two days until they would have to leave Silvermoon Forest. Xiang Yun and Luo Ning"s first day of travel had been rather smooth, and their journey there had not been as silent as before.

When his mind energy transformed into mind consciousness, Xiang Yun discovered a miraculous phenomenon the second night after that. It was as if he was in a strange state when he was channeling his cultivation.

Previously, when Xiang Yun was channeling his Turtle-Aura Art, his state had been more like that of a half-wakeful, half-wakeful person.

However, the moment Xiang Yun fell asleep, he would be like a fish swimming in the sea, or a roc swimming in the sea as he soared up into the North Sea.

Only after Xiang Yun had questioned Luo Ning did he learn that this was a form of sleep called "Breath of the Body". In this state, it was extremely beneficial for a Cloud martial pract.i.tioner"s mental strength, even if it was their physique.

It was extremely difficult for ordinary Cloud Warriors to enter this state as they were meditating. It was often due to luck that they were able to enter it one or two times.

Presumably, Xiang Yun had just formed his spiritual will and coincidentally entered this state!

However, Xiang Yun did not tell Luo Ning. He discovered that it seemed that the moment he activated Turtle Aura Technique, he would immediately enter the fetal state. It did not seem to be as difficult as she had said; he still needed to rely on fate.

On the morning of the second day, the two of them set out. Along the way, they killed several cloud beasts that were blocking the way and even repelled a group of birds.

Along the way, Xiang Yun had carried his gigantic azure profound sword with him as he made his way forward. In the end, Xiang Yun and Luo Ning"s luck didn"t seem very good today. It was already evening when they were about to find a place to rest.

He never thought that he would encounter a peak soldier level Fire Toad Beast!

This beast was as tall as half a person and had the shape of a toad. However, its entire body was covered with red grooves that were like volcanic craters and its enormous mouth could actually spit out scorching flames.

The Fire Toad Beast was one of the rare Cloud Beasts in the Silvermoon Forest. It was extremely agile, being able to transform into a red stream of light with just a flick of its wrist.

In the Silvermoon Forest, other than a few especially tyrannical Cloud Beasts, there were very few Cloud Beasts that dared to provoke them.

However, there was one characteristic of the Fire Toad Beast, and that was that it was extremely lazy and very rarely took the initiative to prey on its own.

Most of the time, they would hide their auras and wait for their prey to approach from a secluded location before killing them in a single blow. Therefore, Xiang Yun could be considered quite unlucky this time around.

At that time, just as Xiang Yun and Luo Ning were about to cross a stream, the Fire Toad Beast, hiding in a dense patch of weeds, suddenly flew out like a scarlet flying knife.

If Xiang Yun had not been alerted in time and raised the Blue Profound Sword in his hand to block the attack, this fellow"s tongue would have most likely pierced through his head.

Currently, although Xiang Yun was able to fight against an ordinary commander-level cloud beast, he was still able to fight against a peak soldier level beast. That was comparable to a human, a Mystic Cloud expert. There was no possibility for Xiang Yun to win!

Thus, Xiang Yun and Luo Ning decisively fled, wanting to throw this fellow off. However, the Fire Toad Beast had clearly identified these two as its food, and had actually leaped over their heads, soaring between the ancient trees.

The Fire Toad Beast instantly caught up to the two of them and spat out a mouthful of raging flames, as if it was pouring hot oil into them. It was actually planning to roast the two of them to eat!

Xiang Yun immediately swung out with one hand, blocking the body of the Giant Blue Profound Sword. At the same time, the storage ring on his left hand flashed, and the Wandering Dragon Sword instantly appeared in his other hand, pointing the tip of the sword at the body of the Blue Profound Sword!

Xiang Yun knew that this was yet another tough battle. Facing such a powerful beast, he had to muster up his mental fort.i.tude.

He didn"t know why his luck was so bad. He had run into such a high-level cloud beast at the edge of the Silvermoon Forest.

In the end, Xiang Yun could only fight against the enemy.

The result could be imagined. Facing a Cloud Beast that was almost at the Mystic Cloud Realm, moreover, this fellow"s methods were strange, and his intelligence seemed to be quite high. When the two fought, Xiang Yun was basically unable to resist!

It was a good thing that Xiang Yun now had the power of spiritual will, and his observation skills were much higher than before. With all of his focus on observing the Fire Toad Beast, and with the Wall Tiger Travelling Wall movement technique, he could barely contend against it!

However, in this sort of highly resistant battle, Xiang Yun was unable to persevere for too long. Just as he was about to leap up and down along an ancient tree.

The Fire Toad Beast actually used a flame to force Xiang Yun to jump down, while its long, scarlet tongue shot straight towards Xiang Yun"s head.

In the end, Xiang Yun had actually relied on his Turtle-Breath Technique to hold in a mouthful of foul air and brazenly spit it out. Borrowing the force of the Qi arrow, he flew backwards, barely dodging this fatal blow!

Beside him, Luo Ning was calmly watching the fight. She held a yellow paper talisman in her hand. Just now, she had almost thrown the paper away.

Seeing Xiang Yun actually being able to use such a wondrous method to dodge her attacks, Luo Ning couldn"t help but smile a little.

However, in the next moment, Luo Ning"s eyes suddenly flashed as she looked toward the southwest!

At this moment, the Fire Toad Beast had once again flown high into the air. After fighting with Xiang Yun for a short while, it had already lost its patience.

It was like a hundred meter long fire sword sweeping out. With a single sweep, it sent Xiang Yun flying along with the Wandering Dragon Sword, his body sinking into an ancient tree!

At the same time, the Fire Toad Beast seized the opportunity to pursue and attack Xiang Yun. Its long tongue once again shot out like an arrow, piercing through the ancient tree that Xiang Yun had sunk into!

A rumbling sound suddenly appeared in the sky during this critical moment. A bright light immediately swept over. Regardless of whether it was the mountain rocks or ancient trees, they were all instantly split into two guards and neatly cut through wherever it pa.s.sed!

The rainbow light was as swift as lightning and in the blink of an eye, it descended from the sky and hacked onto the Fire Toad Beast"s tongue that was being shot out!

"Puchi!"

The long tongue of the Fire Toad Beast that could clash head on with the Wandering Dragon Sword was like a knife cutting wheat straw. As it was cut in half, dark green blood immediately spurted out!

"Aooo!"

The Fire Toad Beast let out an incomparably sharp hiss. Its pair of blood-red eyes suddenly looked up at the top of the forest and saw a black shadow dart down like lightning!

A hint of hatred flashed through the Fire Toad Beast"s eyes as its two cheeks simultaneously puffed up and it spat out a mouthful of jade-green flame!

This was the source flame of the beast. Compared to the red flame he had released before, its aura was much more terrifying!

However, the person who had come down from the sky saw the dark green flames heading towards him, and he let out a cold laugh!

"Humph! Evil creature, you"re courting death!"

That person swept his palm horizontally, and a majestic cloud of energy instantly exploded out, suddenly striking the jade-green flame.

Under the attack of this person"s palm, the turbulent green flame was like a candle flame that was about to be extinguished.

Along with the power of that palm, it instantly bounced back into the Fire Toad Beast"s mouth, sending the body of the Fire Toad Beast flying backwards like a rubber ball!

"Caw!"

This time, the Fire Toad Beast let out a shrill cry and landed in the dense forest. It didn"t dare to have any more grudges in its heart as it turned around and ran, and in a few leaps, it flew out of everyone"s line of sight!

Everything happened too fast, to the point that the Fire Toad Beast was sent flying before Xiang Yun could even crawl out of the hole in the ancient tree.

Xiang Yun had obviously heard the commotion outside and also heard the explosive shout!

His heart skipped a beat as he struggled to stick out his head and look around him.

Suddenly, he saw an extremely familiar figure standing in front of him. It was a middle-aged man in a long gown with an una.s.suming appearance. It was Lu Yongchang himself.

"City Lord Lu!"

"Your Highness!"

The two of them looked at each other with looks of disbelief as they simultaneously shouted out!

"Aiya, Your Highness, this official has finally found you!"

Lu Yongchang was so agitated that he staggered and actually kneeled onto the ground, bowing to Xiang Yun.

"That City Lord Lu, can you get me out first?" Xiang Yun felt a little awkward. After being stuck in the ancient tree, he did not have the strength to climb out!

"Oh, okay, okay!"

Lu Yongchang hurriedly stood up and walked over to the ancient tree. Stretching out his hands, he pulled to both sides of the tree. The huge trunk of the tree was like a thin piece of paper. It had been easily torn apart!

Lu Yongchang hurriedly helped Xiang Yun out of the room. Then, as if he were looking at a rare antique that had accidentally fallen to the ground, he went up and down, carefully examining it!

"Your Highness, are you hurt?"

"Don"t worry, there won"t be any major problems." Xiang Yun waved his hand, tidying up his clothes.

Lu Yongchang was a little worried. He said, "That won"t do. To be safe, Your Highness, you should take some medicine to heal your wounds!"

After saying that, Lu Yongchang took out the knapsack on his back and laid it on the ground. There were dozens of bottles and jars of different sizes, all of which were medicines to heal one"s wounds.

Lu Yongchang quickly selected three medicine bottles from inside, "Your Highness, this red medicine bottle is meant for treating internal injuries, you can just apply the blue color directly on the wounds, and smell the white color directly. The internal injuries and external injuries are all very effective."

Xiang Yun was stunned, but he immediately waved his hand and smiled bitterly, "I"m really fine, City Lord Lu. This time, it"s fortunate that you managed to arrive in time."

"This official was late to save His Highness, causing the crown prince to be frightened. He truly deserves to die a thousand deaths." Lu Yongchang lowered his head in remorse.

Xiang Yun patted Lu Yongchang on the shoulder, saying, "City Lord Lu, there"s no need to be polite about our relationship. We"ve already saved this crown prince"s life. What could be more important than this?"

Hearing this, the guilty look on Lu Yongchang"s face finally relaxed slightly. He immediately turned to look at Luo Ning, who was standing not far behind Xiang Yun. His eyes couldn"t help but light up.

It wasn"t that Lu Yongchang had any flowery thoughts, but now that Luo Ning had regained her daughter"s looks, her looks were simply too outstanding. Anyone who saw her would be amazed by her beauty.

"Your Highness, who is this lady?" Lu Yongchang asked curiously.

"This is a friend of mine, we met in the Silvermoon Forest. We can"t explain anything to you. It"s getting late, let"s find a place to settle down first, then we can talk in more detail."

Naturally, Lu Yongchang did not dare to object and immediately took up the role of the pioneer.

Xiang Yun and Luo Ning followed behind him. Xiang Yun smiled as though a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders, saying, "Miss Luo Ning, we"re safe now."

A hint of amus.e.m.e.nt appeared on Luo Ning"s face as she looked at Xiang Yun, saying, "I didn"t expect you to still be the crown prince. Truly, disrespectful, disrespectful."

Xiang Yun smiled awkwardly. If someone else had said these words to him, he would have thought that they were fawning over him.

However, if Luo Ning were to say such words, she would definitely be ridiculing him. Her ident.i.ty would definitely be countless times higher than his position as the crown prince.

"Right, is this person your subordinate?" Luo Ning asked as she looked at Lu Yongchang"s back.

"That can"t be counted as so. He is still my superior, and I am the Vice City Lord of the Qin Feng City, he is the City Lord of the Qin Feng City. However, this City Lord is a very kind person, and he treats me well."

"Oh …" Luo Ning nodded. Her eyes were dark, and it was hard to tell what she was thinking.

A moment later, Lu Yongchang turned to Xiang Yun happily and said, "Your Highness, we"ve found a place to rest!"
