saint of humanity

In front of the Tianzhou Guard Palace in Jiuzhou, towering ancient trees sway gracefully.

Xiaojiu stood under the tree, looked up at the sky, and let out a long sigh: "Finally, they are gone!"

The development of events was just as he expected. With the strength of the old tree, the concealment of the Shura Field treasure quickly lost its effect, attracting many foreign monks to gather outside Jiuzhou, eyeing the tree tiger.

But by this moment, all the monks had left.

In the projection, Lu Ye's three swords were too powerful, and no one dared to ignore them. Moreover, it was obvious that the treasure on the side of the Samsara Tree was not an easy one to subdue. Even if there was no threat from Lu Ye, it was basically impossible for them, who were in harmony with the Dao, to subdue a treasure with intelligence.

In this case, we naturally won't stay any longer and increase the risk.

"Lu Ye has become so powerful." Xiao Jiu looked excited.

He was not a cultivator, so he did not have a very intuitive understanding of the cultivators' cultivation levels and strengths, but he knew that the cultivators who had invaded the starry sky in recent times were all so-called He Dao cultivators, who were currently unmatched by the starry sky cultivators.

But even such a group of strong men in the eyes of the starry sky monks were as vulnerable as pigs and dogs under Lu Ye's sword.

He knew that with Lu Ye's actions, the current crisis in the starry sky was temporarily resolved, and his tense mood couldn't help but relax.

In the elegant room of a high-rise building on the Three Realms Island in the Sea of ​​​​Wanxiang, Lu Ye and Yuan Xi were toasting each other.

As the host, Lu Ye naturally had to entertain Yuan Xi well when she came.

He had never drunk with Yuan Xi like this before, but he had heard from Youdie that Yuan Xi used to go to Hehejie often to drink wine with the owner of Lian Tower.

So Yuanxi’s alcohol tolerance is not bad.

However, Ni Chilian's face turned red and her expression became more delicate after a few drinks, which was really surprising.

If Lu Ye had not known her identity for a long time and had met her alone, he would never have dared to associate her with the legendary ten city lords.

The ten city lords have different temperaments. Ba Qiu is domineering, Long Zun is majestic, but no one is like Ni Chilian, who gives people a harmless feeling.

But Lu Ye knew clearly that this was just an illusion. How could one of the ten city lords be harmless to humans and animals?

After three rounds of drinking, Lu Ye looked at Ni Chilian and said, "I would also like to thank Lord Ni for his good governance. Otherwise, I'm afraid that all the people in this starry sky would have been destroyed long ago."

The cultivators who entered the starry sky from other Star Abyss Gates were basically a group of scattered sand, but it was different on the Wanxiang Sea side. They were under the command of the Ten Great Hedao Cities. If Ni Chilian had not restrained them in advance, the Wanxiang Sea would never be as peaceful as it is now.

Ni Chilian shook his head slowly: "It's too serious. I just don't like bullying the weak, and I didn't know this was your starry sky. If I had known earlier, I would definitely not allow them to barge in at will."

Lu Ye chuckled, "Who could have predicted such a thing? Fortunately, the result was not bad." He changed the subject, "Since Lord Neon has come to the Wanxiang Sea, have you found anything?"

"What aspect do you mean?" Ni Chilian was a little confused.

Lu Ye's expression became serious: "Then let me put it another way. Is there anything that Lord Ni wants right now?"

The only thing in the starry sky that can attract the ten city lord-level strongmen is the ultimate treasure.

Coincidentally, there is a treasure under the Wanxiang Sea!
Although Lu Ye did not make his words very clear, Ni Chilian was not a fool, so he naturally understood it immediately.

"You mean that thing under the sea?"

"It seems that Lord Ni City has discovered it." Lu Ye thought to himself that it was true.

Although the Xingxiu Palace is hidden by the Wanxiang Sea and is located very deep under the Wanxiang Sea, it is not difficult for a strong man like Ni Chilian to investigate it as long as he pays attention. After all, the aura of the treasure cannot be faked.

The reason why Ni Chilian has been staying in the Wanxiang Sea and has never left may be due to this reason.

Yuan Xi hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Grand Commander. Although Chi Lian noticed it, she didn't do anything to it. She just went down to take a look."

It's not that he doesn't want to, but he has been having fun with Yuan Xi these days, and Ni Chilian originally planned to refine and tame it after some time.

However, now that we know that this starry sky is Lu Ye’s birthplace and the Sea of ​​​​All Things is Lu Ye’s territory, things have become a little difficult.

Lu Ye shook his head slowly: "Since Lord Ni has already investigated the Xingxiu Palace, he should know that the reason why the entire Wanxiang Sea exists is because of that treasure. If Lord Ni takes it, the Wanxiang Sea will collapse and disappear sooner or later. This will be a huge loss for all the starry sky cultivators."

The source of the existence of the Sea of ​​All Things is the Star Palace. It is this treasure that continuously gathers the spiritual power of the starry sky, which leads to the birth of the Sea of ​​All Things.

If this root is removed, the Sea of ​​All Things will no longer exist.

The number of cultivators gathered in the Sea of ​​All Things is so huge now. If the Sea of ​​All Things is gone, it will affect the practice of many cultivators.

Ordinary cultivators may not have the ability to conquer the Xingxiu Palace, but Ni Chilian may be able to do it.

The intelligence of the Xingxiu Palace is not very high. If Ni Chilian has the ability to erase its intelligence, he will have the opportunity to refine it.

Ni Chilian remained silent.

Even for her, the temptation of a treasure was great.

She could order her monks not to disturb the creatures in the starry sky and not to bully the weak, but since it was a matter of supreme treasure, it was not something that could be resolved by Lu Ye with just a few words. There were not many opportunities to capture the supreme treasure in this way.

Now that the inner and outer worlds are merging, except for her, the other ten city lords also have the opportunity to enter different starry skies. If she does not subdue the treasure, others will not miss it. The gain or loss of any treasure may affect the gap in strength between them.

She knew that Lu Ye and Yuan Xi had a good relationship, but as one of the ten city lords, she had to consider the entire Chilian City.

"What you mean is..." The drunken look on Ni Chilian's face had disappeared, and he looked at Lu Ye calmly.

"The Xingxiu Palace cannot be taken back!" Lu Ye looked back at her.

Ni Chilian's face was calm, waiting for what was to come.

As expected, Lu Ye continued, "But there is another treasure in another place. If Lord Ni has the ability, he can take it!"

"What do you want me to do?" Ni Chilian asked.

Lu Ye smiled: "City Lord Ni is indeed very intelligent!" Before he could say anything, Ni Chilian had already noticed something. The ten city lords are still the ten city lords after all. No matter how weak and harmless they look on the outside, it is just a disguise.

In other words, only in front of Yuan Xi did she appear to be truly weak and harmless.

"I want to make a deal with Lord Neon City." Lu Ye said slowly, "I can let the Lord Neon City refine the treasure. Whether it will succeed or not depends on your ability. No one in this starry sky, including me, will interfere."

"What about the conditions?"

Lu Ye said: "Please ask Chilian City to protect this starry sky! Since Lord Ni City has been in the starry sky for a while, you should know that there is not only one Xingyuan Gate in Wanxiang Sea in this starry sky. In addition to this place, there are five other places."

Ni Chilian nodded slightly: "I have heard about it, but after today's battle, those invading monks should be preparing to evacuate."

"That's what I said, but as long as the Xingyuan Gate is not closed, there will always be people breaking into the starry sky. I don't have that much time and energy to stay here to deter people. Today's incident can't be repeated all the time, so I would like to ask Lord Ni to send someone to guard the Xingyuan Gate."

In this way, anyone who approaches the Star Abyss Gate will be persuaded to retreat. Most people don't have this ability, but Chilian City has enough reputation.

Who in Xingyuan doesn't know the name of the Ten Great Hedao Cities?
This deal was not difficult for Ni Chilian. She didn't even need to send many of her subordinates. It would be enough to place a few people in front of each Star Abyss Gate.

It can be said to be a piece of cake!

Ni Chilian did not agree immediately, but turned to look at Yuan Xi with a questioning look.

When Lu Ye was talking, Yuan Xi just listened, and only then nodded and said: "Grand Commander, we have made this deal. I will order people to go to the other five Star Abyss Gates, but I may need your cultivators to lead the way."

Even if it wasn't a transaction, she wouldn't refuse if Lu Ye asked. What's more, Lu Ye also gave Ni Chi the opportunity to refine the treasure.

This was undoubtedly for her sake.

"It's not five places, it's four places!" Lu Ye corrected.

Yuan Xi was puzzled: "What's the situation with the other place? Doesn't it need to be guarded?"

Lu Ye sighed: "That Xingyuan Gate leads to Senluo City."

Upon hearing this, Ni Chilian couldn't help but frown.

Yuan Xi also frowned and said, "But we didn't find any trace of the monks from Senluo City in the starry sky."

Lu Ye explained: "They didn't have time to invade. I came back from there before and killed a lot of them."

Yuan Xi immediately asked: "Do you need help?"

Lu Ye smiled and said, "I appreciate your kindness, Lord City Lord. I will find a way to solve the problem over there myself."

If Yuan Xi didn't have Chi Lian City behind her, Lu Ye would naturally not refuse. After so many years of getting along with each other, they could share the joys and sorrows.

But she is currently the deputy city lord of Chilian City after all.

Among the ten great cities of Hedao, Chilian City has the most neutral stance and never has any conflicts or contradictions with the other ten. This should be the way Chilian establishes himself in Xingyuan.

So Lu Ye had no way of dragging Yuan Xi into the water. After all, his relationship with Ni Chilian was not that good. Forcing it would only offend Ni Chilian.

"How are you going to solve it!" Yuan Xi knew better than Lu Ye how strong the foundation of the ten Hedao cities was. Except for Yifu City, any of the ten major cities in the world was a huge behemoth.

It was not a city, but a force that had lasted for who knows how many tens of thousands of years.

"You have to eat one bite at a time. There is always a solution." Lu Ye did not dwell on this issue any more, but looked at Ni Chilian: "If Lord Ni feels that the previous transaction is okay, you can go to the place where the treasure is at any time."

"Since Yuanxi has agreed, then I agree." Ni Chilian nodded.

"Then I wish the city lord all his wishes come true!" Lu Ye raised his glass to gesture.

After a while, Lu Ye and Jiu Yan gave some instructions, left the private room, found Yi Yi, said a few simple words to her, and then left in a hurry. (End of this chapter)
