When Lyu Liang appeared again in a palace, before he could make a breath of fresh air, a shout sounded through his ears, "Who are you! Name yourself now!"
Lyu Liang looked around and saw that layers of Bounded Domains surrounded him. Outside the Bounded Domain, at least ten cultivators at the Almighty Immortal stared at him and were ready to take actions.
Lyu Liang smiled bitterly and was about to explain. He then heard a familiar voice and that turned from suspicious to joyful, "Eh? You are... Lyu Liang! You are Lyu Liang!"
Lyu Liang looked at the sound source and laughed. The person who spoke was the chief of Sword Character Immortal Palace, Hunyuan Sword Immortal!
"Chief Ancestor, Lyu Liang is here see you!" Lyu Liang directly ignored the existence of various Bounded Domains, walked a few steps, kneeled and bowed. He could hardly control the excitement in his eyes.
He was back! He had finally returned to the Wufang Territory! And since he saw Hunyuan Sword Immortal, it means that this place was probably the Sword Character Immortal Palace! Here was the place where Lyu Liang started everything. After thousands of years, he returned to this place. How could he not feel excited?
Hunyuan Sword Immortal helped Lyu Liang up and smiled happily, "You! You are still so humble with all your achievements. With your current strength, we no longer have to hide! Everyone listen up, Lyu Liang is the closed-door disciple that was accepted by the founding father of Sword Character Master! He was considered a Junior Brother of us! All disciples shall address him as Martial Uncle when you see him!"
While Lyu Liang still wanted to refuse, the people of all levels behind the Hunyuan Sword Immortal, besides Immortal Danyuan and others whom Lyu Liang knew, all bowed respectfully and said, "Martial Uncle Lyu, it's my honor to see you!"
Among these disciples, even those who were at the Xuan Immortal, treated Lyu Liang with respect even though he was only at the Late-stage of Fairy Immortal.
It's not just because of the new these days about Lyu Liang barging into two territories and the feat of killing thousands of people on his own, but also because they were the people who know the best about Lyu Liang!
When Lyu Liang entered the Sword Character Immortal Palace at the beginning, he was only at the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment level. Now, in less than two thousand years, he became a powerful figure at the Late-stage of Fairy Immortal! Looking at his moves, even a cultivator at the Almighty Immortal level could not reach his combat level!
Seeing the sincere eyes of everyone, Lyu Liang could only make a deep bow in return. Later, he asked eagerly, "Senior brother, how are Sword Character Master and Xuan Nyu senior? What is the current situation of the battle in Wufang Territory?"
When it came to the war situation, Hunyuan Sword Immortal frowned and sighed, "Two-fifths of the territory of the Wufang Territory has been occupied by those invaders, mainly in some marginal areas. Now the Immortal Allies of Wufang Territory take the Tianshui Country as the core and the other four countries as the assistance to make a massive Bounded Domain using an ancient formation. At present, some powerful figures from the Immortal Allies were at the Formation Keys to maintain the Bounded Domain. The other powerful figures led the high-ranking cultivators and fight against the invaders, Sword Character Master and Xuan Nyu senior are there too."
When Lyu Liang heard the words, his heart suddenly tightened, the marginal area? Had the Siji Village already fell in the enemy's hand? At the thought of this, his desire to go home immediately got extremely strong.
Thus, Lyu Liang held his fists and said, "Senior brother, please tell me where the teacher and other people are. I must go home now. When I settled my affairs, I will join the fight against the invaders!"
Hunyuan Sword Immortal also understood Lyu Liang's urgent desire. He did not ask more questions and, only said one sentence, "When you have finished your family business, come back to Immortal Palace and find me. We will go and find the Master together. By the way, there are still some things that I have to inform you in advance."
Lyu Liang bid farewell to everyone. Then he rushed to the Siji Village at his full speed.
With Lyu Liang's current cultivation and speed, he only took two days and vaguely saw the shadow of Qingluo Town. On his way, everything went smoothly. He did not encounter enemies, nor did the building on the grounds damaged. This made Lyu Liang's mood unwind a lot.
The thought of seeing father and returning to the Virtual Land made Lyu Liang so excited that he could hardly control himself.
But before he reached the Qingluo Town, he suddenly felt the power of a law coming towards him.
"En? The law of forbidden space?" With Lyu Liang's current cultivation, the law of forbidden space was unable to stop him, but out of caution, he still stopped to check.
At this time, several cultivators rushed past him, walking towards Qingluo Town that was not far away.
"What happened? There should be very few cultivators in Qingluo Town which was mainly made of mortals? When did so many cultivators start to go there?" Lyu Liang got suspicious and followed those cultivators to the entrance of the town.
In the process, Lyu Liang also discovered the mystery. At least two cultivators at the Almighty Immortal level blocked at the entrance. Every cultivator who entered the town had to hand a bag of Primordial Stones or a piece of magic treasure. Only then, the person was allowed to pass.
When Lyu Liang saw this situation, he slowed down his footsteps and pulled the arm of a man at the Early-stage of Gold Core, dragged him to the side and asked gently, "Hey friend, I am sorry to trouble you but why does everyone have to enter this town? And the two powerful figures at the entrance, are they collection an entrance fee?"
The man was stunned at first and then he doubted, "Why? Don't you want to go to the Haofang Territory? The seniors at the entrance will only let us pass after collecting the entrance fee. Ar, two hundred mid-grade Primordial Stones, although expensive, it was nothing compared to the survival!"
Lyu Liang was stunned and vaguely remembered that the two territories were nearby, he hastily asked again, "Why are you going to the Haofang Territory?"
This time, the man examined Lyu Liang as if Lyu Liang was a weirdo, then he muttered, "Where are you from? Don't you know that the Haofang Territory is connected to the West Demon Realm? The situation in the Demon Realm is much better than ours. The enemy seemed to have focused their manpower on the Mortal Realm!"
"So everyone is going to take refuge in the Demon Realm?" Lyu Liang seemed to understand now.
"Who said no! According to the powerful figure guarding the entrance, this place will become a battlefield soon. Thus it is better to go to a safe place earlier than to be beaten to death!" While the man said, he prepared to move on.
"Last question! Why do you have to go from here, can you not detour?" Lyu Liang was filled with anger, a cultivator at the Almighty Immortal level was doing such a same shameless act of robbery instead of defending his hometown!
The man was stunned once again, and then he secretly transmitted a voice to Lyu Liang, "The passage from the Haofang Territory to the Demon Realm was also guarded by them. If we hand in the Primordial Stones or magic treasure, we can go inside and get a talisman, which is the recognition token to go to the Demon Realm. I used to detour, but after I reached the entrance of the passage, I had to come back again!"
While the man sighed, Lyu Liang was already burning in anger. He did not care about the restriction formation on flying and flew directly to the gate of the city. When he saw the two cultivators at the Almighty Immortal blocked in front of him, he said, "Get out!"
The two blocking him was at the Early-stage and Middle-stage. Anyway, Lyu Liang did not care about them. The only thing he wanted to do now was to quickly return to the Siji Village to see if his father and the villagers were still present and well!
"En?! Where did this silly boy come from! How dare you to talk to us like this! Are you looking for death!" Among them, the grey-clothed man at the Middle-stage of Almighty Immortal glared, and a horrible pressure slammed towards Lyu Liang.
Lyu Liang sharp eyes brightened instantly, and then a Sword Qi with Divine Soul power spurted out, directly bouncing back the pressure!
The grey-clothed man felt unbelievable, and then he spat blood, apparently suffering from severe injury.
Lyu Liang limited his cultivation at the Early-stage of Nascent Soul, so the two guards did not take him seriously at all. The man who shot made a move casually, just in time to meet Lyu Liang's full-powered furious attack. Thus his Divine Soul was injured out of sudden.
"You, not only did you hide your cultivation, but also dared to hurt the people of the Immortal Allies! You, you must be the spies sent by the enemy!" Another guard exclaimed and directly accused Lyu Liang as an invader.
While the other guard screamed, another five auras at the Peak of Almighty Immortals appeared! There were five elderly and men in different sizes, all staring at Lyu Liang, seemed to be ready to kill him at any minutes.
A trace of sadness and disappointment flashed through Lyu Liang's mind, he roared angrily, "You guys who are with high cultivation, did not go to the front to kill the enemy, did not think about defending your homeland, but come here and bully others. How can people like you worthy of Immortal Allies? I guessed you are probably just faking it!"
"How dare you! You are just a Fairy Immortal and how dare you to slander soldiers from the Immortal Allies! So what if we collect some entrance fee! We worked hard to come to this remote place and guarded such a broken site. What is wrong with collecting some fees for our hardships! Get out if you are not willing to pay the Primordial Stones! But people like you who do not know the limits, you have to die for your sins!" In the sky, a white-browed red-bearded elderly had a vicious look, and he seemed to want to tear Lyu Liang and eat him alive.
When Lyu Liang saw this, he knew that the matter would not end peacefully today! He could only lament, these people had high cultivations but lack of good morals, it was indeed resentful!
While Lyu Liang was just ready to move, one of the five people in the sky, a blue-robed man suddenly took out a white ball from his arms and laughed evilly, "These are the mortal creatures that were in this town previously. If you fight with us and accidentally hurt them, then it is a big sin that will burn you in hellfire!"
Lyu Liang had already put on his Spirit Armor and pulled out the Kunwu Sword, but he stunned at the words, then he gritted his teeth and said, "Shameless!"
Lyu Liang did not care about the hellfire, but those mortal creatures were the innocent people of Qingluo Town! He lived here from an early age, and the sultry and sinister trick of the blue-robed man poked on his weakness!
If he don't fight, he will die terribly. But if he were to fight, and this guy makes a sinister move...
Just as Lyu Liang was in a dilemma, an angry male voice sounded, "Despicable and shameless! There are scums like you in the cultivators of the Mortal Realm. You shall be killed!"
A golden light flashed and the blue-robed man who was holding the ball in his hand now had an empty hand. Then, from a distance, a young black-haired youth wearing a purple gold Spirit Armor appeared. His aura was vague and he held that white ball in his hand, then he said, "Kid, I will keep this first, and I am sure it will be fine. The rest, fight or leave, suit yourself!"
