saint of humanity

Beside Changyun Island, many figures were surging in the blood river, rushing out one after another to kill the generals.

Xia He could no longer resist and had to move closer to Lu Ye for protection. Where Lu Ye was, the space became extremely distorted and the sword light flickered unsteadily.

Although he killed the enemies quickly, there were too many of them and he eventually ran out of steam.

In this situation, we can neither advance nor retreat. Once we run out of strength, there will be no hope of survival.

"Be careful!" Xia He suddenly exclaimed. In the midst of her busy schedule, she realized that an enemy was approaching Lu Ye, so she suddenly attacked. Unfortunately, Lu Ye was distracted at this time and was unable to do anything.

Xia He wanted to help, but she was in a difficult situation and couldn't save herself, so she didn't have the energy to do so.

Just when she thought that Lu Ye could not escape this time, a buzzing sound suddenly came from the formation group in Changyun Island, followed by a beam of light shooting out from the formation.

The beam of light shot out like an arrow, brushing past Lu Ye and hitting the attacker right in the body, causing him to stagger and scream.

The next moment, beams of light continued to shoot out from behind Lu Ye, like a continuous rain of light, covering a large area, instantly forcing back all the enemies around Lu Ye and Xia He.

An angry voice came from behind: "My two Taoist friends, quickly enter the formation!"

Lu Ye, who had been standing there without moving, felt a little relieved. He winked at Xia He, who had a frightened look on her face, and stepped back.

Just now when Chu Li refused him and Xia He to enter the island, Lu Ye actually had the opportunity to take Xia He and escape into the blood river again.

But that is not a long-term solution after all. No matter how perfect the disguise is, it will eventually be exposed. Once that happens, he and Xia He will have nowhere to hide.

That's why he stayed where he was to fight the enemy.

Chu Li had concerns due to his position, so it was understandable that he did not allow them to enter the island. However, if he showed enough strength and value, perhaps Chu Li could dispel his doubts and feel that it was worth taking the risk to accept them into the island.

Chu Li’s current choice is undoubtedly what Lu Ye hopes to see.

A gap had been opened in the solid formation, and Lu Ye and Xia He went straight in as they retreated.

Lu Ye did not retreat too much, but stood in front of the gap with a knife in his hand.

A figure flashed by, and Chu Li came with a gun in hand, looking ahead with a cold gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Fellow Daoist, please stay here with me for thirty breaths!"

A gap has been opened in the formation. Although it can only accommodate one person, it will take thirty breaths to close it again. If the invading enemy cannot be resisted during this period, a gap will appear in the defense line.

So no matter what, we must not let the enemy enter the island.

As Chu Li finished speaking, he had already thrust out a spear. On the spear, the Taoist power condensed into a small black dot, which hit a He Dao who was chasing him. The violent Taoist intent broke through the opponent's protective Taoist power and directly pierced the He Dao through.

He suddenly put away his gun, and Lu Ye's long sword had already fallen, the sharp blade light slashed out, and a rain of blood was rolled up.

The gap in the formation was like a fishy fish, attracting many enemies to attack frantically.

Lu Ye and Chu Li took over to block the attack, and the nearby formation group continuously blasted out beam-like attacks to relieve the pressure on the two.

Despite this, enemies continued to find opportunities to attack the island.

Lu Ye and Chu Li had no time to take care of other things and could only leave it to Xia He and the other Hedao people guarding here to deal with. The battle at this section of the defense line was extremely fierce.

Fortunately, as time passed, the gap in the formation slowly closed, and after thirty breaths, the gap was finally completely repaired.

Lu Ye and Chu Li turned around at the same time and rushed towards the enemy who rushed into the island.

The number of these enemies was not too large, and they had already been entangled by Xia He and others, making it difficult for them to escape. When Lu Ye and Chu Li arrived, they could only wait to be killed.

Chu Li didn't stop and checked the formation again. After making sure there was no problem, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist!" Lu Ye clasped his fists and bowed to him.

He knew clearly that Chu Li had made such a choice under great pressure and he also needed to bear considerable responsibility. If this line of defense was breached, he would become the sinner of Changyun Island and deserve death.

Chu Li nodded slightly, without saying anything more, just looked outside the island.

Where the gap had just opened, many enemies gathered, glaring at the island covetously. However, there was no chance to take advantage of now, so they could do nothing even if they were unwilling.

The enemy is still accumulating strength and it is not yet time to launch a general attack.

There is no doubt that once the enemy launches a general attack, this section of the defense line will be the focus of attention, because although the gap has been repaired, it has been opened after all. Compared with the defense lines in other sections, the defense capabilities here will be relatively weak.

"Follow me!" After a moment, Chu Li waved his hand, "I'll take you to meet the island master."

"Thank you!" Lu Ye nodded.

This was expected. After all, he and Xia He entered the island halfway. Although the battle just now had made their position clear and they were by no means traitors, since they had come to Changyun Island, they would of course pay a visit to the island owner.

Ordinary cultivators do not have this qualification, but Xia He is at least a high-level cultivator, and the strength that Lu Ye just displayed is also extremely powerful, so he cannot be ignored.

The owner of Changyun Island lives in a huge mansion in the center of the island.

Chu Li led the two of them straight inside, and they met the owner of the island in a hall.

Changyun Island is named after him. This big island has stood above Longhai for thousands of years. It has sheltered countless human cultivators. Therefore, Changyun Island is quite famous above Longhai.

Not to mention that many humans gather here on weekdays. Before each hunting by foreign races, many scattered human monks will enter the island to seek shelter.

Changyun is a short old man with gray hair. Although he is old, he has a dignified demeanor.

Lu Ye didn't know how strong the Lord of Changyun Island was, but judging from the means he showed in storing his strength just now, his strength was roughly equivalent to that of a Zhou-level city lord without the enhancement of the Hedao Pearl.

He is comparable to the strong ones like Tai Kun Yu Ting whom Lu Ye had encountered before.

Based on this calculation, the strength of this Lord of Changyun Island is estimated to be about the same level as the ten city lords.

This source world is indeed filled with powerful people.

This is just the human race. I’m afraid the foundation of other foreign races may be even stronger.

When they met, Chu Li told them what had just happened. Chang Yun looked at Lu Ye and Xia He from head to toe. After a long while, he finally spoke: "Chu Li can trust you, which means that there is basically no problem with you. But there are always contingencies. If you two really want to stay on the island, take this pill. If not, then go back to where you came from."

As he spoke, Chang Yun snapped his fingers and two brown elixirs flew in front of Lu Ye and Xia He.

Lu Ye frowned slightly.

Chu Li said: "This is a mind-controlling pill. As long as the two of you have no ill intentions, the island master will not do anything to you. After the war is over, the island master will remove the restrictions in this pill. Xia He should know the rules."

Xia He nodded: "Of course I understand."

Having said this, he picked up the Heart Control Pill and swallowed it without hesitation.

The next moment, Changyun and Chuli looked towards Lu Ye at the same time.

Lu Ye sneered: "Since it is the rule, we should abide by it!" He picked up the elixir and swallowed it under the watchful eyes of Chang Yun and Chu Li.

Changyun nodded slightly, looked at Chu Li and said, "Since you let the people in, then you can arrange it. I will transfer some people to supplement your defense line. Don't open the formation casually next time. My Changyun Island has survived many hunts and has become a thorn in the eyes of some people. Whether the hunt can continue this time depends on whether you can work together."

“Yes!” Chu Li clasped his fist.

Walking out of the island owner's residence, Xia He whispered to Lu Ye, "We are only halfway into the island after all. The situation on the island is unstable right now, and the island owner and his men don't have much energy to spend on us. The Heart Control Pill won't affect us in any way. After the war, please ask the island owner to lift the ban and it will be fine."

"Yeah." Lu Ye responded casually, while at the same time paying attention to some of his thoughts.

The Heart-Controlling Pill was said to be a magic pill, but in fact it was more like a poisonous insect. At this moment, there was a tiny insect lurking in his heart.

If he hadn't controlled the power of the talent tree, the poisonous insect would have been burned to death long ago.

Lu Ye even felt that he didn't need the talent tree at all. He had the ability to kill the poisonous insect by himself. Xia He should also have such ability, but it would take some time and energy.

But doing so would certainly alarm Changyun, and the scene wouldn't be very good then.

It's no big deal if this poisonous insect remains in the body. If anything goes wrong, Lu Ye can burn it at any time.

If it weren't for the talent tree as a support, Lu Ye would not have swallowed the Heart Control Pill so casually. He never had the habit of letting others control his life and death.

After a while, Chu Li led him and Xia He back to the previous defense line.

Since Chang Yun asked Chu Li to arrange two people, he certainly would not send the two powerful helpers to other places. His defense line itself needs manpower reinforcement.

The strength of Lu Ye and Xia He is enough to relieve him of a lot of pressure in the upcoming battles, which is why he took the risk to bring them in.

The war has not started yet, so the human cultivators on the entire Changyun Island are preparing for battle, gathering their strength, and waiting for the war to come.

Lu Ye and Xia He were settled down and each of them meditated and regulated their breathing.

Xia He looked lonely, obviously worried about Xiao Man and the others. Previously, when the group was hunted, only she and Lu Ye escaped, and the rest were all captured.

But she was helpless about it and had no ability to save anyone.

Although she had experienced this kind of separation many times, Xia He still felt uncomfortable.

Lu Ye didn't have so many feelings. After all, they just met by chance and didn't have much friendship. At this moment, there were a pile of storage rings in front of him and he was checking them one by one.

The more I investigate, the more I feel that the cultivators in the Source Realm are different from those in the Inner Realm.

He had killed many enemies in the inner world and captured many spoils, but the number of fish among those spoils was not large. (End of this chapter)
