Chapter 230 Unfavorable Predictions
The venerable ancestor of Shengling Mountain has already advanced to the realm of the Void God.
Moreover, it is possible that the Yue Ling Sect and the Voodoo Sect, who control the Poyun City, are plotting old accounts.
Poyun City may be gradually entering a dangerous situation.
Furthermore, the more Lu Yu thinks about it, the more strange it seems.
According to reason, Poyun City is still under the control of the Yue Ling Sect and the Voodoo Sect.
If there are demonic cultivators causing trouble in the surrounding area, they should be the ones to suppress it.
But in reality, the poison cultivators of the Voodoo Sect are also taking advantage of the chaotic situation to plunder the resources of the scattered cultivators.
This situation is almost identical to the situation in the peripheral markets of Shengling Mountain.
Could it be that there is a hidden formation or restriction in Poyun City, similar to the formidable Soul-Devouring Array in Leidong Jiuxiao?
And the fact that the venerable ancestor of Shengling Mountain has advanced to the realm of the Void God, these two sects definitely cannot be unaware of it.
It is precisely because of the hidden formation that the two sects are confident and fearless in the face of the possible attack from the venerable ancestor of the Void God.
"Could it be that a notorious sect like the Voodoo Sect is not thinking about resisting the venerable ancestor of Shengling Mountain, but rather about abandoning the city?"
"Are they thinking about looting while leaving?"
Qin Qingrou speculated beside him.
The more Lu Yu thinks about it, the more uneasy he feels.
He looked at his wives, who were also somewhat fearful, and said seriously:
"During this time, you will stay in the Lanxin Mansion."
"There is Wanyue Fairy, a Foundation Building cultivator, guarding here, so it should be safe."
The wives nodded in agreement.
After breakfast.
Lu Yu went to the quiet room as usual to cultivate.
With the help of various enhancements and his Dao body, the spiritual power that originally took him a whole day to increase was now completed in just a few breaths.
Compared to when he first entered the Foundation Building stage, even in the assessment grounds of the Qingyun Commercial Gate, where the spiritual energy environment was more abundant, his cultivation speed cannot be compared to now due to the limitations of his own absorption speed.
This also allowed Lu Yu to complete his daily cultivation very early.
He patted his storage belt and started refining the spirit beast pill ahead of time.
In this way, he immersed himself for nearly half a month.
On this day, Ren Zhan Guan sent a message saying that Fellow Daoist Yao Qianji had an important matter to discuss and asked Lu Yu to go to the Qingyun Commercial Store.
Lu Yu tidied up a bit and called Wanyue Fairy, and they went to the third floor of the Qingyun Commercial Store together.
In the private room at the end of the corridor on the third floor, Yao Qianji had been waiting here for a long time.
When he saw Lu Yu enter, he quickly smiled and warmly greeted him.
The two sat at the table, and after the female attendant of the Qingyun Commercial Store prepared the spiritual tea, Yao Qianji waved her away.
Only after the door of the private room was closed did Yao Qianji show a difficult expression and said:
"Fellow Daoist Lu, Poyun City has been in turmoil recently. Have you heard anything about it?"
Lu Yu nodded and replied, "I have heard something about it."
"Now Poyun City is likely to face the attack of the venerable ancestor of Shengling Mountain in the realm of the Void God."
Yao Qianji nodded and said, "That is a possibility, but it may still take some time before that venerable ancestor arrives."
"And during this time, it is an opportunity for those demonic cultivators and bandits to kill and plunder."
"Not far from here, in the grasslands, many scattered cultivators have been robbed, and there are rumors that the disciples of the Asura Demon Sect have been investigating my whereabouts."
"Fortunately, I was reminded by Ren Zhan Guan and settled down in Poyun City in advance, so I was spared from the disaster."
"Nowadays, I am temporarily staying in the Lan Ya Mansion, which is not far from Fellow Daoist's previous residence."
"The Lan Xin Mansion is just a short distance away from the Lan Ya Mansion. We should often bother Fellow Daoist in the future."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu nodded slightly and said, "I am honored to have close contact with Fellow Daoist Yao."
"However, why did those cultivators from the Shura Demon Sect inquire about Fellow Daoist Xing's whereabouts?"
Yao Qianji sighed and remained silent for a moment before speaking:
"This is a long story."
"I have had some grievances with the Shura Demon Sect in the past."
"When I was in the Chen Kingdom, I led my nephew to train and was intercepted by a cultivator from the Shura Demon Sect."
"That disciple of the Demon Sect was already in the Foundation Establishment stage, and it took a lot of effort for me to kill him."
As Yao Qianji spoke, there was a hint of self-satisfaction on his face.
In the cultivation world, being able to challenge and even kill someone from another realm is a rare occurrence among ten thousand cultivators.
Of course, that Foundation Establishment cultivator happened to be in an unstable state at the time, which led to his defeat.
Yao Qianji smiled faintly and continued, "In cultivator battles, giving it your all is the norm."
"Besides, I couldn't escape at that time with my nephew, so I paid a considerable price and unexpectedly killed that Foundation Establishment cultivator."
"But now, the Shura Demon Sect has come looking for me, and I'm afraid I will have to stay in the Poyun City for some time."
As the two of them were engrossed in their conversation, another person entered the room.
The person who entered was the shopkeeper Ren, who had just finished his work.
After greeting Lu Yu and Yao Qianji, he took a seat as well.
"Do you two Fellow Daoists know that the situation in Poyun City is far from calm?"
"Just last night, while the Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Yue Ling Sect were meeting with the Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Voodoo Sect to discuss how to deal with the chaos outside the city, they were ambushed."
"One early Foundation Establishment cultivator and two late Foundation Establishment cultivators were burned to ashes within a fierce fire formation."
"When those Yue Ling Sect cultivators realized they were being ambushed, they hurriedly sent a message to Senior Xu from our Qingyun Shop for help."
"Senior Xu, along with several guest cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage, went to rescue them but almost got trapped."
"Now, after those Voodoo Sect Foundation Establishment cultivators fell, several other Foundation Establishment cultivators have arrived from elsewhere."
"At this moment, the Yue Ling Sect and the Voodoo Sect are already in a standoff within the city."
"A major battle is about to break out."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu's previously calm expression immediately became serious.
Yao Qianji looked nervous and said, "Both the Yue Ling Sect and the Voodoo Sect are major sects in the Star Continent."
"And they belong to different factions, one righteous and one evil."
"But the Yue Ling Sect cultivators in Poyun City have always had a good relationship. Why would they suddenly attack?"
The shopkeeper Ren shook his head repeatedly and said, "At the moment, we have no way of knowing the reason."
"Moreover, regardless of the conflict between the Yue Ling Sect and the Voodoo Sect, the Void God Realm Ancestor from the Holy Spirit Mountain is about to attack."
"Senior Xu is about to arrive. I wonder if he will have any new information."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu immediately changed his plan to return to the Lan Xin Mansion at noon.
He, Yao Qianji, and the shopkeeper Ren waited quietly in the room for Senior Xu's arrival.
As dusk approached, Senior Xu entered the room with an angry expression.
"Hmph, what kind of righteous sect is the Yue Ling Sect?"
"They launched a sneak attack and set up restrictions in advance, just like the despicable actions of demonic cultivators."
"Those Yue Ling Sect cultivators are truly outrageous. They ignored dissuasion and ruthlessly activated the restrictions to kill the Voodoo Sect cultivators."
As he entered the room, he angrily scolded the shopkeeper Ren.
