Chapter 2357 Yin Luo loses the fight
Xingyuan's invasion of the starry sky has always been gradual, and the whole process often lasts hundreds, thousands of years or even longer.

For example, the original Yanjia Starry Sky took almost a thousand years from being invaded to being destroyed.

During this process, the flaws in the starry sky will gradually increase, and then a series of star abyss gates will appear.

But the situation in this starry sky is somewhat special. It was invaded once hundreds of thousands of years ago, but the ancestors worked hard to resolve that crisis.

However, the Star Abyss Gate that had once been opened still left traces in the starry sky.

These traces are flaws in the starry sky.

Therefore, the frequency and speed of the Star Gate in this starry sky opening is very fast.

Otherwise, under normal circumstances, there should be only one Star Abyss Gate in the starry sky right now, not six.

It has been more than ten years since Lu Ye left the starry sky. For a cultivator, this period of time is actually very short. When he left, the most powerful group of cultivators in the starry sky were the ones who were brought into the Yanjia starry sky by the ghost sedan. Lu Ye had no idea how much they could grow in ten years.

Now that he can feel the call of the Star Abyss, this means that Lu Ye only needs to follow the direction of the source of the Star Abyss' call to reach the Gate of the Star Abyss.

There were no disturbances along the way. After several months, as Banlan got closer and closer to the Star Abyss Gate, Lu Ye began to slow down Banlan to facilitate subsequent docking.

However, when Lu Ye was still half a month away from the Star Abyss Gate, he suddenly felt something and turned to look in one direction.

At that location, a figure seemed to flash by.

Lu Ye was eager to go home and had no intention of paying any attention to it, but for a moment he felt that the figure was vaguely familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

He was suspicious and dodged away.

Soon he stopped in front of a monk who was in a hurry.

When their eyes met, the cultivator was startled at first. He obviously didn't expect that his action just now really attracted Lu Ye's attention. He then chased after him, and then a look of surprise burst out in his eyes: "Daoyou Lu, you are really back!"

"You are..." Lu Ye carefully recalled the name of the monk in front of him, and finally remembered: "Ying Hu?"

No wonder I felt familiar with him when I first glanced at him. This Ying Hu was one of the many human cultivators who followed Madam Qingyu back then.

"Why are you the only one here?" Lu Ye was a little puzzled. Although the number of people in Madam Qingyu's group was not large, there were about a dozen people. What happened? Why is there only one person left?

"Senior Sister Qingyu and the others are all at Qing Palace." Yinghu explained.

"You are here after all." Lu Ye nodded.

When he parted with Madam Qingyu, he had told them that they could come here to seek refuge with Yin Luo.

The main reason was that this group of human cultivators had only just entered the Dao realm. In this Star Abyss, there were dangers lurking everywhere. They might encounter a Dao-melting cultivator and be wiped out at any time.

So before Lu Ye left, he asked them to come here to find Yin Luo. At that time, the Gate of Xingyuan had been opened. Under the influence of Xingyuan's will, the chaos among the creatures of Xingyuan had subsided, so there would be no danger for them to come here. What's more, as long as they reported their names, Yin Luo would take care of them.

Lu Ye originally thought that if the Star Abyss Gate could allow those of them to pass through, they could also help the Starry Sky. Such a group of cultivators could still play some role in the early stages of the Star Abyss invasion.

Now it seems that Madam Qingyu and the others have adopted his suggestion.

"Since you're here, why are you here?" Lu Ye was a little curious. This place is still half a month's journey away from the Star Abyss Gate. What is Yinghu doing here?
Ying Hu smiled bitterly: "Master Yin Luo lost the battle and lost control of the Xingyuan Gate, so we can only hide here. Master said that you left from this direction, so you must return from this direction. I was in charge of monitoring over there before, and suddenly I saw a colorful floating over. I didn't see you clearly, and I thought a strong enemy came, so I ran away in a hurry."

"Yin Luo lost the fight?" Lu Ye was startled. "What happened?"

According to what Yin Luo had told him before, after the Xingyuan Gate was completely opened, no more fighting was allowed there. Back then, Lu Ye wanted to stay and hunt those Xingyuan creatures to make himself grow quickly, but it was for this reason that he had to start his journey.

Before the Star Abyss Gate is opened, the gathering of a large number of Star Abyss creatures will inevitably lead to endless conflicts and chaos.

But after the Star Abyss Gate was opened, the Star Abyss will required these gathered Star Abyss creatures to invade the starry sky, so this kind of fighting was no longer allowed.

All creatures in Xingyuan follow this rule, which can also be said to be dominated by Xingyuan's will.

But now Yinghu told him that Yin Luo had lost the battle!
"Let's talk while we walk." Yinghu gestured and led Lu Ye forward.

As he spoke, Lu Ye gradually understood what had happened.

Back then, Madam Qingyu, at Lu Ye's suggestion, led their group to join Yin Luo, and everything went smoothly. But one day five years ago, two people at the peak of the Rong Dao suddenly came here and challenged Yin Luo to a duel in order to compete for the control of the Xingyuan Gate.

Normal fighting is not allowed, but this kind of invitation to fight is allowed.

Yin Luo couldn't refuse at all, because Xingyuan's will also wanted the stronger one to control the Xingyuan Gate.

After one battle, Yin Luo was defeated.

Under normal circumstances, Yin Luo would have left, but staying here was what Yang Qing had told her to do, so she couldn't leave.

In the past few years, she has taken the initiative to challenge others many times, but always ended up being defeated and even seriously injured several times.

Lu Ye frowned as he heard this: "So, it's not that Yin Luo is weak, but that the other person has two of them?"

Ying Hu nodded: "The Twin Demons, one red demon and one green demon, this race is extremely special, they are always twins in one, so even though they are two individuals, using two against one does not break the rules, and they will not be punished by Xing Yuan's will."

Lu Ye understood.

Yin Luo’s strength is not weak, so how could he be defeated so easily by others?

Fighting one against two, and both of them are at the peak of Rong Dao, Yin Luo is indeed not up to the task.

As he spoke, Lu Ye saw the familiar palace in front of him.

It is the long-lost Qing Palace!
A sense of familiarity came over me.

As if sensing Lu Ye's approaching breath, before Lu Ye arrived, a petite figure flashed out from the Qing Palace, holding a tattered rag doll in her hand.

If it’s not Yin Luo, then who else could it be?
She was obviously not healed yet, her face was still a little pale, but she shouted in great joy: "Lu Ye, you are back?"

As he spoke, he bumped into Lu Ye's arms.

Behind Yin Luo, Duan Bo followed silently like a ghost. An unintentional glance made his eyes shine with brilliance. He stared at Lu Ye with intense eyes, as if he wanted to see into the depths of Lu Ye's soul.

Following Duan Bo, another group of human cultivators walked out of the Qing Palace, led by Qing Yu.

Lu Ye had just caught Yin Luo who had rushed over, and this guy kept sniffing him like a puppy. He immediately looked up and looked at him eagerly: "Lu Ye, I'm so hungry!"

Lu Ye's face turned dark as he suddenly recalled some unpleasant experiences from the past.

He raised his hand and pinched her neck. Yin Luo instinctively wanted to resist, but before she could react, she was pulled aside. She couldn't help but blink her big eyes and looked at Lu Ye in confusion.

I always feel that Lu Ye has changed a lot when we met again this time.

"Greetings, Brother Dao!" Qingyu led everyone forward to pay their respects.

Lu Ye returned the greeting: "After all these years, Madam is still as elegant as ever. Congratulations on your promotion to the Rong Dao!"

He could tell at a glance that Qingyu had already been promoted to Rong Dao.

If Qingyu had not taken care of Yingwu and the others back then, she would have been qualified to strive for Rong Dao long ago. She gained a lot from the Dao Pool that time, but there was no inheritance, and she did not have the method to advance to Rong Dao.

The reason why he brought Yingwu and the others to join Yin Luo was, firstly, because of Lu Ye's suggestion, and secondly, Qingyu also wanted to ask Yin Luo for advice on how to advance to the Rong Dao.

After coming here, under the guidance of Duan Bo, she was successfully promoted without any setbacks during the process. It can be said that it was extremely smooth.

But Qingyu should only be at the first level of Rong Dao. Her strength has not changed much in the past few years.

"It's all thanks to you, Brother Taoist. I would like to thank you for your guidance." Qingyu smiled.

As he was speaking, Yin Luo ran over again, hugged Lu Ye's thighs, looked up at him eagerly, his little mouth pouting, looking very unhappy.

Lu Ye looked down, feeling helpless for a moment.

Ten years have passed, and the world has changed. The strong men who were once enough for him to look up to are now starting to cling to him.

"Two choices." Lu Ye raised two fingers to Yin Luo.

"What what?" Yin Luo was stunned.

"I'll feed you!" Lu Ye put down a finger, "Or I'll help you teach those two guys a lesson, beat them up, and help you take back control of the Xingyuan Gate!"

Before Yin Luo could react, Duan Bo's eyes sparkled and he chuckled, "Lu boy, I haven't seen you for a few years. You are so arrogant now? Do you know the strength of the two who defeated the young lady?"

"I heard that two people at the peak of the Fusion Dao, twin demons."

Duan Bo was suddenly shocked and confused.

He had vaguely noticed that Lu Ye had been promoted to the Rong Dao, but he thought that even if Lu Ye was really promoted to the Rong Dao, the improvement in strength would inevitably be limited in such a short period of time.

But what's going on now?
Two people at the peak of the Rong Dao level, he can just chase them away just by saying so?

Where does this kid get his confidence from?

Yin Luo was still thinking about Lu Ye's words. Eating her fill was undoubtedly very tempting to her, but Yang Qing had instructed her to keep an eye on the Xingyuan Gate, so her expression was very conflicted and she didn't know what to choose for a moment.

But the hesitation lasted only a moment, and soon she said firmly: "Then help me beat them away!"

She didn't even have the slightest doubt as to whether Lu Ye had the ability. It could only be said that even after Yang Qing's enlightenment, she, who was born as a star beast, still had a simple mindset.
