After the four of them divided the spoils, they quickly escaped, so as not to attract more demon insects to the same bloody aura.

In the next half month, Lu Xuan and Sun Yunming had been patrolling the edge of Black Star City. During this period, they occasionally encountered alienated monsters that were affected by foreign demons and lost their minds, and were all solved by the four of them.

The mission period has reached, and the four of them return to Black Star City and enter the inside of the city after passing the inspection of the monks outside the protective formation.

"I finally returned safely."

The four of them looked at each other, and their heartstrings that had been tense finally relaxed.

Outside the city, there are no doubts about when monsters will attack, so we need to be on guard all the time and we must not relax for a moment.

Only when you return to the city can you have time to breathe and relax.

"This time, thanks to Senior Brother Lu, it would be difficult to return to Black Star City intact."

Meng Yue suddenly said.

"That's right, I didn't expect that Senior Brother Lu, a spiritual plant master who rarely goes out to explore the secret realm, has such powerful strength, which is beyond my expectations."

Sun Yunming said with a smile.

Among the four, he is the most ordinary person, has the lowest cultivation level, and has the least treasures on his body. He is extremely lucky to be able to meet a powerful teammate like Lu Xuan and come back safely.

"If you have time, come here and ask senior brother, why not ask Jiandao."

Qiu Changyuan suddenly said something.

“Welcome.”

Lu Xuan smiled loudly.

"Those three fellow Taoists, let's part with you?"

"See you well!"

The four of them parted ways. When Lu Xuan was about to return to the courtyard where he was located, suddenly, an old voice rang in his ears.

"Senior Brother Lu, please stay!"

He looked back and saw that the thin old man came to the back at some point and came to him in a few steps.

"Fellow Daoist Sun, what else is there to do?"

Lu Xuan asked curiously.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought that during the search and cleaning, my senior brother obtained a lot of monster materials. Considering that this is the first time you have come to Black Star City, you may not know much about the city. I want to introduce some ways to Senior Brother Lu and exchange more spirit stones."

"The Qingyuan Gate where I am is located is near Heixing City, so I should be quite familiar with the doors inside."

Sun Yunming said with a smile, with a bit of pleasing tone.

"Is that true? Then I will trouble fellow Daoist Sun."

Lu Xuan's thoughts floated by and nodded in agreement.

He was a newcomer and didn't know much about Black Star City. As a local snake, Sun Yunming had experience in forming a team. With him leading the way, he could save a lot of time and energy in exchange for more spirit stones.

"Senior Brother Lu, please follow me."

The old man's face smiled even more. This time he and Lu Xuan and his party saw the extraordinary nature of this spiritual plant master from a sect. He had superb sword skills and a wealthy fortune. He casually sacrificed three fourth-grade sword talismans. In addition, he was kind to others, so he had the idea of ​​getting to know him.

So I used this guise to approach Lu Xuan and consolidate the relationship between the two.

The two walked slowly between the streets of Heixing City.

"This is where the casual cultivators set up their stalls, most of them are qi training cultivators. If Senior Brother Lu has any low-level materials, he can hand them over to me with confidence. I will let my disciples deal with it to save time.

There are some shops with good financial resources and good reputation at the end of the street, and some precious monster materials that can be used to go to their places to sell."

"In addition, now there are a lot of fish and dragons in Black Star City, with a large number of sect cultivators and some powerful cultivators gathered here. At some special times, the black market will be opened. If Senior Brother Lu is interested, you can say to me and I will get the qualification for Senior Brother to enter."

Sun Yunming introduced to Lu Xuan in an organized manner.

Lu Xuan nodded and casually swept across the stalls of the wandering cultivators on both sides.

The stall owner sensed the powerful aura of the two of them and bowed their heads, for fear of causing the two foundation-building masters to be unhappy.

Suddenly, he paused and stopped in front of a stall.

There were some low-grade materials on the stall, including first- and second-grade spiritual plants, snake bones, snake blood and other goods. The stall owner was a thin young man with a pale face and his eyes were like two thin slits. A green python poked his head out of his cuff and looked outside indifferently.

He noticed that a monk was paused, and the young man raised his head and was about to greet him. He sensed the foundation-building aura of Lu Xuan and his two people. His face changed drastically, and his eyes were half alert and half afraid.

"Two seniors, don't know what you need?"

He lowered his head deeply and said softly, tucking the head of the green python back into his sleeve.

I had a lot of thoughts in my mind, trying desperately to recall whether I had offended the foundation-building monks.

When Sun Yunming saw Lu Xuan stop, although he didn't know the reason, he slowed down and turned to the stall.

Lu Xuan stretched out his hand and, in the uneasy mood of the thin young man, picked up a bottle of red and green snake blood, and raised the corners of his mouth.

"Is this the blood of the blue water python?"

"After senior, it's the blood of the water python."

The thin young man spoke, revealing two rows of sharp teeth.

"Is your name Yu Jie?"

Lu Xuan asked softly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man couldn't help but tremble and he lowered his head to admit:

"Yes, I don't know how my seniors meet..."

After receiving a satisfactory reply, Lu Xuan's mouth rose even more.

"Linyang Fang City, the blood of the water python, I didn't expect to meet you here."

He felt a lot of emotion in his heart, and he never expected that many years later, he would meet an old friend in Black Star City thousands of miles away.

When he was in Linyangfang City, in order to collect the snake blood from cultivating dragon vines, he met this young monk named Yu Jie under the leadership of his neighbors and exchanged a lot of second-grade blue water python blood from his grandfather who was good at catching snakes.

The boy who once had a sharp look like a poisonous snake has become a high-level Qi training monk.

"Lu...Senior Lu?"

Hearing Lu Xuan’s reminder, the young man seemed to have thunder slashed in his mind, and he instantly recalled his experience more than 20 years ago.

At the beginning, a spiritual planter came to his house and ordered a large amount of second-grade blue water python blood from his grandfather, which made the embarrassing life of the grandfather and grandson a lot.

"Yes, it's me."

A look of incredible flashed in the young man's eyes. He remembered that Lu Xuan was just a mid-level qi cultivation cultivator at that time. Unexpectedly, in just over twenty years, he had successfully broken through to the foundation-building realm and became the existence he looked up to.

"Why did you come to Black Star City? Where is your grandfather?"

Lu Xuan asked curiously.

"After a time when the market was attacked by monsters, many monks died. Grandpa discussed with me and decided to live in a different environment. After several twists and turns, he came to Black Star City."

"As for grandpa, he was injured after that monster attack and had not been completely cured. The journey was long and not very smooth. After we arrived at Black Star City on the Chamber of Commerce's treasure ship, he forced himself to hunt snake monsters. Finally, new injuries and old diseases broke out together, and he died of depression."

A trace of sadness flashed in Yu Jie's eyes.

"What a pity."

Lu Xuan sighed.

"However, you can grow to this point today, which is worthy of your grandfather's spirit in heaven."

He looked at Yu Jie, who had already mastered his qi and said with relief.
Chapter completed!
