Chapter 238 Encounter
Chapter 238 Encounter
Every person they encountered on the road was incredibly powerful, radiating a bloodthirsty aura, clearly someone who had emerged from mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
The word "fierce" is practically etched into their very bones.
After walking through several streets, Lu Yuan saw a tall building.
Upon entering the hall, the space suddenly opened up, but it was quite crowded with people.
He approached a counter where a cool-looking woman sat, looking at Lu Yuan and asking, "Want to take on a mission?"
The latter shook his head, took out the token given to him by the Changqing Sect Master, and said, "Someone introduced me to the Demon Hunting Alliance."
The woman glanced at it and nodded, then took out a token and handed it to Lu Yuan: "Engrave your name on it, and all the demons you hunt will be recorded on it."
The more you kill, the higher your rank within the Demon Hunting Alliance.
Lu Yuan did not hesitate and took it.
As the name appeared on it, a memory flooded his mind.
Within the Demon Hunting Alliance, members are ranked from lowest to highest, divided into nine ranks, with the first rank being the lowest and the ninth rank the highest.
Once you reach the ninth rank or above, you can obtain the title of Demon Hunter King.
Such a person would be treated with great respect in any celestial empire.
Killing ten Immortal Realm demons will earn you the title of Rank 6 Demon Hunter, which already makes you an absolute master.
Within the Demon Hunter Alliance, he is considered to be in the middle ranks.
Currently, a ninth-rank demon hunter from the Demon Hunting Alliance is stationed in this fortified city.
Based on Lu Yuan's guess, his cultivation level should be at the Three Flowers Realm.
It has already condensed three flowers on its head.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his lips.
Then, he slowly walked out of the main hall.
Headed towards the nearest restaurant.
However, as soon as they entered, a waiter ran over and said, "Sir, our Lingyue Tower has been booked out."
We do not accept visitors from outside the area.
Upon hearing the sound, Lu Yuan shook his head helplessly.
The only thing left to do was prepare to leave.
But just as he turned around, the shopkeeper hurriedly came out, looked Lu Yuan up and down, and asked, "May I ask your surname, sir?"
His words made Lu Yuan raise an eyebrow.
In this unfamiliar place, someone actually asked me my name.
This instantly put him on guard, and his palm gleamed faintly, but he still said, "My name is Lu Yuan."
Then we prepared to take action.
However, the shopkeeper's face showed surprise: "That's right, it's you. The gentleman who booked the shop said that if you come, you can go in directly."
I have already prepared the food and wine; please come out now, sir.
Lu Yuan was somewhat surprised. Although he didn't know why this was the case, he became wary.
But he went in anyway, wanting to see who was behind this.
As he entered the hall, he saw that a table full of dishes had already been set out.
The variety of delicious dishes is truly eye-catching.
The restaurant manager greeted him with a fawning smile, saying, "Please have a seat, sir. I will invite the gentleman upstairs down right away."
After saying that, he ran up there, and not long after.
A figure slowly walked down.
When Lu Yuan looked up, a wry smile appeared on his lips: "So it was you. I thought it was someone else."
Ren Qingyan smiled and said, "Besides me, who else would be waiting for you here? Look at this, how about we team up sometime?"
Her voice was clear and crisp, and she even took out a demon-hunting token in her hand.
"You should have said so earlier, you made me so suspicious," Lu Yuan said, taking a sip of his wine.
Ren Qingyan glanced at him and said softly, "You came to this city without saying hello, and you blame me for not telling you sooner. You really have no conscience."
As she spoke, she rolled her eyes at Lu Yuan.
Clearly, after more than a decade of getting to know each other, the two have become very familiar with each other.
Lu Yuan stopped talking, because he realized that it seemed to be true.
All I could do was give a bitter smile.
However, at that moment, another figure walked in through the door.
"How about counting me as a teammate?" The person who came was none other than Luo Ningxing.
This fortified city was jointly established by the Divine Universe Heavenly Dynasty and the Returning Void Heavenly Dynasty, who also sent people to defend it.
The powerful members of the Demon Hunting Alliance stationed here also come from two different celestial dynasties.
An election is held every ten years.
Although this place belongs to two different celestial dynasties, it can also be said to be separate from both.
In short, it operates on its own.
It is led by the Demon Hunter Alliance.
Therefore, many people from both Chinas would gain experience here.
Ren Qingyan didn't seem surprised by Luo Ningxing's arrival. She glared at her and said, "I knew you'd come, you little tagalong."
Over the years, the two had met several times because of Lu Yuan.
But they were almost always head-on collisions.
No one is willing to submit to anyone else.
Luo Ningxing pursed her lips, a stubborn look on her face, and said, "Even a tagalong isn't your tagalong. I'm following Lu Yuan. He hasn't said anything yet, so why are you yelling?"
"you......"
Ren Qingyan's pretty face flushed red; she was clearly angry.
However, before she could finish speaking, Lu Yuan chuckled and said, "Why do you two always quarrel as soon as you meet? It's not easy for you to meet here."
"Sit down and have a couple of drinks."
Luo Ningxing glanced at Lu Yuan, then at Ren Qingyan, before entering the hall and sitting down.
"Sit down and have a couple of drinks."
Luo Ningxing glanced at Lu Yuan, then at Ren Qingyan, before entering the hall and sitting down.
The latter, as if in a fit of pique, sat down next to Lu Yuan.
"That's more like it. Come on, let's drink and eat. We can also discuss where to hunt demons later," Lu Yuan said with a light laugh after pouring drinks for the two of them.
Luo Ningxing, who was standing to the side, clearly had no interest in drinking. Instead, she took out a map and said, "This place is called Silver Wolf Valley. The Silver Wolf clan lives here, and they have been very rampant lately."
The Silver Wolf Valley Master's strength is at the first level of the Five Qi Realm. My current cultivation is at the Immortal Realm, so Ren Qingyan should also be at the first level of the Five Qi Realm. She also has top-tier spiritual weapons, so killing the wolf demons in the Silver Wolf Valley should not be a problem for her.
By then, you'll be close to becoming a sixth-grade demon hunter, and you'll have access to decent resources within the Demon Hunting Alliance.
Clearly, Luo Ningxing had observed everything here before she arrived.
The reason they came was to help Lu Yuan.
Ren Qingyan, who was sitting to the side, glanced at the map and said, "This place is indeed suitable."
It was unusual for her not to argue with Luo Ningxue.
Clearly, she wouldn't really care like a little girl if it were in Lu Yuan's favor.
Instead, they also stared at the map and began to offer suggestions.
Seeing this scene, Lu Yuan felt a warmth in his heart. No matter what, having these two good friends, Li Changsheng, and an elder like his master made his trip worthwhile.
Just as I was thinking that,
Ren Qingyan added, "This is the place. It's the most suitable. We'll set off first thing tomorrow morning. The sixth-grade demon hunters are exchanging for materials to break through to the Immortal Realm. I hope we can succeed this time."
"Yes, the resources within the Demon Hunting Alliance are far richer than those in the Celestial Empire. There must be something inside that can help you break through." Luo Ningxing nodded in agreement.
However, she then looked up at Lu Yuan and said, "But even if you can't break through, don't be too discouraged. You're still young, you have time to break through."
