邻居的妻子

When she went to request for assistance previously, none of them were willing to send troops, and now they were unbelievably enthusiastic to send troops here. She did not believe that these two city lords were so high-minded. She did not know the reason for their change, but something must have happened in the interval.

“Hehe! Since I am receiving the federal government’s salary, of course I have to do my part for the federal government. These are things within my duty. How can I stand by and watch idly?” When the City Lord of Boulder Rock City said these words that were clearly against his conscience, he never once blushed in shame.

“Enough idle chit chat. We need to get rid of the Fearsome Beasts in Lunan City urgently. Cultivators of Northern Chill City, listen up! Slay the enemy!” The Northern Chill City’s City Lord yelled out the order with a stern expression.

Song Yu couldn’t stand those two guys’ hypocritical acts anymore. She led her clan members and went off to slay Fearsome Beasts.

“It’s the reinforcements! The reinforcements are here! Our Lunan City is saved!”

Those few cultivators who were still steadfastly guarding the inner city of Lunan City, defending it against the Fearsome Beasts, became more lively and encouraged. They went charging in a killing spree, their faces emotionally charged and eyes brimming with tears.

A big showdown with the Fearsome Beasts of the blood-sucking wasteland unfolded. And at this moment, the woman in white and Uncle Fu had just parked their car in the periphery of the blood-sucking wasteland. They observed the poisonous gas spreading out with grim expressions.

“What a powerful poisonous gas. It can even corrode my true energy,” Uncle Fu said in shock.

By his side, the woman in white said in a low voice, “It seems that if we want to save Lunan City, we must get rid of this poisonous gas.”

Thud! Qin Yong, who had tagged along with them, knelt down straightaway. Although he did not know the identities of these two people, Qin Yong guessed that they must be big shots from the capital, so he pleaded, “Please go and save Captain Lu.”

Qin Yong told them everything that happened before they left the blood-sucking wasteland. A look of surprise flashed across the eyes of the woman in white.

When the woman in white heard that there was an SS-class Fearsome Beast in the blood-sucking wasteland, she was very shocked. And when she heard that Lu Yu ventured deep into the blood-sucking wasteland alone just to save Lunan City, the image of Lu Yu in flesh and blood popped into her mind.

“He still forged ahead despite knowing that there is a tiger on the mountain. He has guts! I respect this man!” Uncle Fu exclaimed.

“From the ancient times to the present, there have been countless selfish people amongst humankind, but there has never been a lack of heroes either. It is these heroes who gave humankind a future. It is laudable that there are these role models to cast future heroes for the community.”

The woman in white looked at the sky and said with a faint smile, “I guess it won’t take long for the people from the Gamma Military Zone to arrive. Uncle Fu, let’s go. Let’s go and meet that SS-class Fearsome Beast.”

And Qin Yong was naturally left behind because his strength was too weak and he would become a burden to them once they entered the blood-sucking wasteland.

After that, a ring of white light radiated from the body of the woman in white. The instant it swept out in a strong powerful wave, the poisonous gas around her and Uncle Fu was totally dispersed.

Like a female deity enveloped by the moonlight, the woman dressed in a snow white dress exuded an icy beauty that was otherworldly and free from worldly cares. It made Qin Yong, an uncouth boorish guy who couldn’t appreciate the subtle nuances of this world, stare in dumbfounded silence for a while.

At Lake Ice Abyss.

Lu Yu and Zhou Zhongzheng were being sucked into the spring source. The Ice Abyss Flood Dragon in his interspatial ring gave a spine-chilling howl in abject fear. However, moments later, it gradually stopped in surprise.

It was not as bone-piercingly chilly as they had expected, and neither was there any raging and violent whirlpool of destruction. Instead, there was only peace and tranquility.

Zhou Zhongzheng, who thought that he was going to die for sure, was also dumbfounded. Following that, he broke out in wild joy, “I… I survived!”

The spring source was connected to an underground hidden river, and the river depth barely reached Lu Yu’s knees. Lu Yu surveyed the environment in front of him, a thoughtful look on his face.

This was a section of the underground darkness that he did not know about. The drinking water was icy cold, but not bone-chilling. In fact, it even had a slightly refreshing feeling to it. Going against the direction of the river flow, the deeper he went, the denser the spiritual energy of heaven and earth became.

There was no trace of impurities at all. After being absorbed by Lu Yu directly, his body’s aura rose steadily. The change in Zhou Zhongzheng was even more dramatic. An overpowering aura burst forth from his body.

In just over ten minutes, he broke through from Great Martial Master Grade 6 to Great Martial Master Grade 7, leaping to become an Advance Great Martial Master in a single bound. It made him absolutely ecstatic. This was a realm that he had stagnated at for several years.

“There is actually such a dense spiritual energy of heaven and earth here. There are almost no impurities and can be absorbed directly by our bodies,” Zhou Zhongzheng said in amazement.

Moreover, as they advanced, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth became more and more dense until it was completely free of impurities. It formed a milky white air stream that wrapped around the two.

As Lu Yu absorbed his fill in big amounts, his cultivation achieved yet another breakthrough, and he advanced to the peak of Great Grand Master Grade 5!

Zhou Zhongzheng’s expression turned from ecstasy to horror. Since the Spiritual Energy Renaissance more than seventy years ago, although spiritual energy of heaven and earth everywhere became much purer, in the vast majority of the territories under the federal government’s control, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth were full of impurities and could not be absorbed directly.

This was the first time he had encountered such dense and pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Suddenly, a globe of dazzling light sparkled ahead of them, making Lu Yu squint his eyes. When he got nearer, he touched a wall. He unsheathed the Dragon Blood Battle Saber and sliced down along a fissure.

All of a sudden, the rock wall shattered, exposing a gigantic crystalline and pure white entity! Lu Yu widened his eyes in shock.

“Mineral ores. There are actually such huge rocks of mineral ore. The rich and pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth condensed here because of these mineral ores.” Zhou Zhongzheng said, shaking his head violently as if he had realized something. His voice was trembling.

“No! It is not possible for a chunk of mineral ore to condense such a dense spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It must be a mineral ore vein!”

In the entire Federation, the mineral ore veins were exceedingly rare and occupied by the various powerful families. When a vast mineral ore vein like this without ownership appeared in front of Zhou Zhongzheng, many thoughts instantly materialized in his mind.

Lu Yu then continued forward against the river current, moving along the wall. He knocked a few times until he heard a hollow sound. Then with a powerful slice, the saber energy hacked open a big fissure in the wall. Immediately, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth blasted out like a raging storm.

The two of them entered the gap, and were dumbstruck by what laid before their eyes.

They saw mineral ores everywhere no matter where they looked. The pure white mineral ores were piled high in heaps, undulating like a slumbering dragon that was so long that its head could not be seen.

Under the ground, there was still a very deep buried body of mineral ore that had not been excavated. Lu Yu deployed his mental power and could vaguely sense that there was a vast mineral ore vein underground, meandering endlessly like the body of a humongous white dragon.

And, in one section of the mineral ore vein, he saw two unconscious people. They were none other than Zhang Yu and Zhang Huaian, the father and son whom Lu Yu had presumed dead.

Not only did the two of them not die, but they also got a blessing out of this disaster. They were wrapped in the dense spiritual energy of heaven and earth. One had broken through to Great Martial Master Grade 9 and was almost on the verge of breaking through to the Grand Master realm, while the other had broken through to Martial Master Grade 9 and was almost on the verge of breaking through to the Great Martial Master realm.

Lu Yu went to look for them. At the same time, the father and son duo also woke up slowly. They looked around their surroundings blankly at first, then when they saw Lu Yu, they went mad with joy.
