The Magician of Cultivation

"What's wrong?" Hu Xiner was stunned.

It was the first time for her to see Li Yu beg her so solemnly.

"If you have any questions, just tell me. I will definitely help if I can."

Li Yu had a serious expression and bowed deeply to Hu Xiner.

"I don't expect you, Boss, to stop the war between the two countries."

"But if possible, when the Ancient Moon Nation attacks Liaocheng, can you please speak up for Yuexi Village and keep them safe?"

"Hey, what did I think?"

Hu Xiner breathed a sigh of relief. "I don't know why the Holy See and the five great empires don't try to stop wars between small and medium-sized countries."

"Even between the five great empires, wars occasionally break out."

"But I can promise you that Yuexi Village will not be harmed at any time. I can still do this."

"Thank you, boss."

Li Yu called him "boss" with all his heart.

They set out again, the two riding together.

But Li Yu was in front and Hu Xiner was behind.

It's because he is short. If Hu Xiner sits in the front, he can't see anything.

With the war horses, the two of them could obviously move much faster.

The two were only ten years old, and their combined weight was less than 200 kilograms. For a warhorse, this weight was almost the same as that of an air cavalryman.

The reason why war horses are called war horses is because of their outstanding endurance and load-bearing capacity.

The two men ran from dusk till dawn, and their horses did not seem tired.

The two stopped to rest halfway through the journey. After all, even if the horses could hold on, people couldn't.

They ran for another three or four hundred miles like this. Li Yu estimated that there would definitely be villages and towns if they walked another fifty miles.

Along the way, they came across at least thirty or forty villages, all of which were deserted.

If this is the case everywhere, then Liaocheng and its surrounding areas must be crowded with people at this time.

The Lord of Liaocheng would not allow so many refugees to enter Liaocheng, so they could only stay outside the city.

Everyone came from different villages, and some even had some grudges against each other.

A certain circle of activity is definitely needed, fifty miles should be about the right amount.

He looked back at the distant sky, his black pupils dilated.

About ten miles away from the two of them, two huge vultures were flying towards them rapidly.

After absorbing Klein's soul, his Nether Eye mysteriously broke through to the peak of the late stage.

With the ability of the late stage of the Nether Pupil, one can clearly see the four people standing on the vulture.

Especially the vulture flying in front, on which a hunchbacked old woman was standing.

The man stared at the two men and kept whipping the white stork vulture under his seat.

Waves of wailing sounds came out of the vulture's mouth, and it had to flap its wings desperately.

The old lady's eyes were filled with viciousness and madness, and even though they were so far away, he still shuddered.

"There's no way to escape," Li Yu sighed helplessly, "That old lady should be Brother Guang's mother."

The other party was completely concerned about the life and death of the white stork vulture and vowed to catch up with her. Under her crazy whipping, the vulture flew much faster than the warhorse.

He did not regret killing Brother Guang.

Brother Guang is a scumbag. If he is alive, more people will suffer.

Even if it happened again, even if he knew that Brother Guang's mother was a top warrior, he would still do it without hesitation.

What's more, given the situation at the time, even if he didn't take action, Brother Guang would not let them go.

Li Yu knew that there was a bigger hurdle ahead - Wubo Lake.

Wubo Lake is the largest freshwater lake in Xueyan Kingdom. It spans between Tuofeng Mountain and Liaocheng, covering an area of ​​nearly 10,000 acres.

After crossing Wubo Lake and heading northwest, you will reach Liaocheng in less than sixty miles.

"We must split into two groups to have a chance of survival"

Li Yu steed his warhorse to gallop and analyzed the current situation carefully again.

"Boss, we must go our separate ways," Li Yu said softly.

"Less than two miles ahead of us is Wubo Lake. You will need to fly there alone, while I will head east at the lake."

"no"

Hu Xiner immediately rejected his proposal.

"Li Yu, you have been taking care of me all along the way."

"How can I abandon you and run away alone? If you want to go, let's go together."

"No no... Boss, listen to me."

Time was running out, so Li Yu spoke very quickly.

"Brother Guang's mother from Toad Ridge is chasing us. They should be less than ten miles away from us."

"She will not let either of us go. Whether we choose to cross the lake or flee eastward, we will die."

"Can……"

Hu Xiner wanted to speak.

"Boss, please listen to me first. Take this first."

Hu Xiner subconsciously took the thing that Li Yu handed over to her over her shoulder.

She looked down and immediately showed surprise, "Second-level mana potion?"

"You have a second-level mana potion?"

"How many bottles do you have?"

Hu Xiner's tone was full of excitement, "Four bottles, no, just three bottles. We can fly over there."

"Two bottles, I only have two bottles," Li Yu replied helplessly.

In fact, it’s useless even if you have three bottles.

Mana potions and healing potions are both very powerful, but there are limitations on their use.

You can only take two bottles within 12 hours, any more will be basically useless.

The longer the interval between two bottles, the better the effect.

If taken continuously, the second dose will only be 50% effective.

"Two bottles?"

Hu Xiner remained silent, her tone lowered, "I don't want to leave. You and Uncle Liao always want to protect me."

"But as I said to Uncle Liao before, if I run away and abandon my companions when something happens, am I still worthy of being a saint?"

Li Yu sighed secretly after hearing this.

He did not give Hu Xiner the magic crystal because magicians and cultivators are different.

When a cultivator's soul force controls the true qi, he can extract energy from the magic crystal, and can use it barely without refining it.

But magicians must be calm in order to extract the energy from the magic crystal through their mental power. And they must refine the energy into magic power before they can use it.

Therefore, it is useless to give Hu Xiner the magic crystal.

He was silent for a moment, then continued, "In fact, neither I nor your Uncle Liao have the idea of ​​protecting you like a porcelain doll."

"Let's not talk about your uncle Liao asking you to go to Liaocheng for help. Let's talk about what I want you to do now, which is not simple."

Hu Xiner raised her head, and there was light in her eyes again.

"Li Yu, what do you need me to do?"

"First, you have to fly across this Wubo Lake alone."

"It's about fifty miles from here to the other side. After crossing Wubo Lake, it will take at least another twenty or thirty miles to reach the refugee area."

"Eighty miles, only two bottles of intermediate mana potions, and you have to fly non-stop."

"The quicker you get there, the safer I'll be."

"The faster the speed, the safer you will be?" Hu Xiner wondered.

"Yes," Li Yu said with a smile, "Boss, it won't be that easy for them to catch up with me."

"Go east from Wubo Lake and you'll find a dense forest within thirty miles."

"Once they enter the dense forest, they will not be able to search from the air and will have to go into the woods to search."

"This will take a long time, so the faster you go, the safer I will be."
