saint of humanity

Chapter 2238 Position
Even though the old man who is in charge of the ruins is not very powerful, he is a Taoist master after all.

Anyone who can be connected with him is most likely a Rong Dao.

A very outstanding little girl... There is only one person Lu Ye can think of!

"Who is she to the old gentleman?" Lu Ye looked ahead.

The old man smiled slightly: "I taught her for a period of time."

Lu Ye understood. After teaching for a period of time, this favor was great. It can be said that even if they were not master and disciple in name, they were master and disciple in reality. Cultivators attached great importance to such things.

Just as he was about to ask again, the old man said, "If something happened to you, she would feel very guilty and worried. She wanted to rescue you, but you should know her position. A single move could affect the entire body, so she couldn't move easily."

"I understand." Lu Ye nodded.

Although Ziying is powerful, she is only guarding a stronghold after all. Moreover, in a large war zone like that, it is impossible for her to rush into the insect nest alone to do anything. That would be neither saving people nor seeking death.

Especially after Li Qi's rebellion, the situation of the human alliance in the Huangquan war zone should not be very good.

"Little girl, let me ask you a question!"

Lu Ye saw that he was stroking a badge in his hand, which meant that he must have passed on the situation here while the two were talking. The Huangquan war zone was far away from here, so even if they knew that Lu Ye appeared here, they would not be able to rush over, so they could only entrust the old man to convey the message.

"Please speak, old sir." Lu Ye looked solemn.

"She asked you if you had ever done anything to let down the human race?"

"No!" Lu Ye shook his head.

The old man looked at him quietly, his eyes deep.

After several breaths, he smiled warmly, "You have been abducted for such a long time, but you suddenly appeared on Shaochong Battle Star. Your strength has changed dramatically. In a few days, you killed two blood clans and two insect clans, but you didn't hurt the human cultivators at all. To be honest, I am also very confused. Are you on the human side or the insect and blood clans?"

"Is that what she asked?"

The old man shook his head: "I am just curious."

"If I say I'm from the human race, will you believe me, old man?"

The old man did not answer this question, but said: "So she asked me to tell you one more thing. Don't come back until you are sure to gain the trust of the Human Race Alliance. When each waist badge is made, blood and a divine thought are taken. These will be recorded on this planet. So even if you change your appearance and name, as long as you reveal this information, this planet will know it immediately."

Lu Ye suddenly realized, and asked how he was exposed so quickly. It turned out to be this reason. He really didn't know such a thing.

"Please come in, young friend." The old man gestured with his hand.

Lu Ye didn't think any more and walked towards the altar. When he passed by the old man, he hesitated for a moment, but finally gave up.

Standing on the altar, the power of Taoism was activated. When the figure disappeared, only a voice reached the old man's ears: "Sir, please tell me that I am safe at the insect nest. Don't worry."

The old man was still sitting cross-legged in the same place. After a long time, he suddenly stood up, stepped onto the altar, and urged his Taoist power, but the altar did not respond.

He couldn't help but scratch his head. What was going on?
According to the information obtained before, Lu Ye is undoubtedly a Rong Dao, but how did he enter the ruins? Since ancient times, only those who have entered the Dao can enter this place.

Moreover, he paid special attention just now. Lu Ye did not make any unnecessary movements. He just activated the altar by urging his Taoist power.

He did the same, so why couldn't he get in?
I am totally confused...

Entering the ruins again, Lu Ye looked around.

What he saw was no different from what he saw when he entered the ruins before, but he knew that this was another passage.

He stepped forward and soon arrived at the first hall, where there was indeed an altar connecting to the outside.

Continuing to walk forward, he came to the second hall, which is the deepest part of the ruins. Looking up, Lu Ye raised his eyebrows.

The dull statue of the Nine Infants was still there, but there was actually a figure standing under the statue.

As if he had noticed Lu Ye's arrival, the man turned around, immediately showing a look of joy, and strode to greet him: "Brother Lu!"

"Brother Yan?" Lu Ye was surprised, "Why are you...are you waiting for me?"

"That's right." Yan Hong came to stand not far from Lu Ye, "I knew Brother Lu would come again, so I've been waiting for you here."

"Are you alone?" He looked around and saw no one else.

In fact, he mainly wanted to ask whether Huang Zhihuan came in with him. However, when he thought about it carefully, he was friends with Yan Hong, but not with Huang Zhihuan. He even beat someone up here that day. How could Huang Zhihuan dare to come in?

Yan Hong knew what he meant and said with a chuckle, "Brother Huang is preparing to advance to the realm of Rong Dao, so he is in seclusion."

For hundreds of years, they have been dedicated to exploring the ruins, and have failed countless times and suffered countless injuries, but in the end, they still have not figured it out.

Now that the ruins had obviously been cracked, there was naturally no need to linger on the entry level any longer.

"Oh, right!" Yan Hong suddenly remembered something and quickly handed a storage ring to Lu Ye.

"This is..." Lu Ye looked at him suspiciously, reached out to take the storage ring, examined it briefly, and had a strange expression on his face.

Yan Hong said: "The agreement between Brother Lu and my Yan family has always been valid. This is the Taoist bone from the recent period. My family asked me to send it in. If I can meet Brother Lu, I will give it to you."

When Lu Ye handed the ants over to the Yan family, he received a lot of benefits, including a monthly supply of Dao bones before Lu Ye was promoted to Rong Dao.

Not only the Yan family, but also the Grand Council has a similar agreement.

Before Lu Ye was abducted, the two parties had never violated the agreement. However, with Lu Ye being abducted, the supply of Taoist bones was naturally cut off.

At this time, the Yan family actually asked Yan Hong to send in all the Dao bones he had recently...

"Brother Yan, what do you want to know?" Lu Ye asked after taking the storage ring. The number of Dao Bones was not small. After all, they were accumulated over several months. Of course he was happy to accept them.

However, it is estimated that this should be the last batch of Dao bones that can be obtained from the Yan family, because the agreed terms are that before Lu Ye is promoted to Rong Dao, the Yan family will have a monthly supply of Dao bones.

However, after this incident, everyone would think that Lu Ye had been promoted to Rong Dao, and the previous agreement would naturally be invalid.

Yan Hong probably didn't know about those things before he came in.

Yan Hong sighed, "Brother Lu, please forgive me."

Considering his friendship with Lu Ye, he was not willing to make this trip, but he was a member of the Yan family after all, so he had to come even if he was unwilling.

Fortunately, Lu Ye didn't care.

"The old guys at home heard what happened before and knew that the ruins had been cracked, so they wanted to ask Brother Lu if there were any unusual discoveries here." After saying that, he said with a bitter face: "I have told them that there is no way to leave the ruins here, but..."

Although wars continue in Banlan, both sides have been looking for ways to break out of this rut. The ruins are the only hope for countless years. If this hope is shattered, then these countless years of exploration and expectations will be meaningless.

So even though Yan Hong had conveyed Lu Ye's words when he returned that day, the Rong Dao of the Yan family did not dare to believe it. That's why he brought many Dao Bones here to wait for Lu Ye, wanting to find out more information.

"I understand." Lu Ye nodded, "But there is indeed no way to leave the ruins in this hall."

After seeing Lu Ye's methods, Yan Hong still dared to wait for him here, and there was no sign of defense or vigilance. This shows that Yan Hong really regarded Lu Ye as a friend, and he subconsciously felt that Lu Ye would not hurt him.

If possible, Lu Ye didn't want to lie to him, but the secret hidden here was too big, and Lu Ye couldn't tell it even to Yan Hong.

As a disciple of the Yan family, he has no control over some things. If he learns the secrets here from Lu Ye and then hides it from the family, it would be disloyalty.

This is also one of the reasons why Lu Ye does not want to return to the War Alliance. He is suspected of being a spy or a traitor, and now he is involved in the ruins. If he really returns to the War Alliance, he will be imprisoned immediately.

He didn't want to deceive Yan Hong, so he could only change the concept and use the same excuse as last time.

"I believe Brother Lu!" Yan Hong is not a fool. He certainly knows that Lu Ye is hiding something from him. Apart from anything else, while waiting, he discovered that there were two doors here that he could not shake, and he didn't know what was hidden behind the doors.

But he didn't ask, because he could feel that if he asked, it would only make Lu Ye embarrassed.

The family even told him to ask Lu Ye what secrets he had discovered here. Even if he had not left the Colorful Method, there must be other hidden secrets here.

But he didn't ask either.

"Brother Yan, let's exchange contact marks." Lu Ye took out his badge.

The reason why he did not destroy the badge was that he kept it for use at this time. It was the only channel to contact the human race.

Just now he wanted to exchange marks with the old man guarding the entrance to the ruins, but he was not familiar with the old man after all. Even though the old man and Ziying were master and disciple, it had nothing to do with him.

It’s different with Yan Hong. They still have some friendship with each other, and Yan Hong is a trustworthy person.

If you want to contact someone from the human race in the future, it will be very convenient to let Yan Hong go through them.

Yan Hong naturally had no objection. He was eager to reestablish contact with Lu Ye and immediately took out his badge.

The marks interacted with each other, and Yan Hong said, "Brother Lu, don't worry. This matter is known to heaven, earth, you, and me, and no third person will know."

Lu Ye smiled and said, "Brother Yan, we have a long way to go. We will meet again if we are lucky. There is no need to explore this ruins anymore. Go back and prepare to advance to the Rong Dao as soon as possible."

"Okay!" Yan Hong agreed.

After a moment, the two went their separate ways.

It was not until he came out of the ruins that Yan Hong realized what he had done recently. He was stunned for a moment.

Last time in the ruins, Huang Zhihuan was no match for Lu Ye and fled injured. He just thought that Lu Ye was possessed by the ant and didn't think about it.

But I didn't know the truth until today.

"Brother Lu is a Rong Dao? And he killed two Rong Daos from the Insect Blood Clan? This... How is this possible?"
