Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

This demonic wolf, like a king, strolled slowly toward Chu Yunfan.

At the same time, the other demon wolves around them gathered around Chu Yunfan, vaguely forming an encirclement.

Upon seeing this, Chu Yunfan felt a chill run down his spine.

He never expected that these demon wolves would all be targeting him.

Especially the demonic wolf that was walking towards him, which was clearly the wolf king.

Knowing he was being targeted by the wolf king, Chu Yunfan knew he was in danger.

However, just as Chu Yunfan was pondering how to deal with the Wolf King...

Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking air.

Immediately afterwards, Chu Yunfan noticed that a dense barrage of crossbow bolts suddenly flew in from all directions, raining down on the wolf pack like arrows.

Then came the continuous screams of the wolves.

At the same time, the wolf king stopped looking at Chu Yunfan and instead looked towards the village entrance.

Seeing this, Chu Yunfan also looked in the direction of the wolf king.

A moment later, a group of people riding black horses and covered in black armor appeared in Chu Yunfan's sight.

This group of people, dressed in identical uniforms and in neat formation, were clearly a professionally trained team.

Just as Chu Yunfan was observing, the Wolf King had already charged towards the group.

However, what awaited it was an even larger and thicker crossbow bolt.

In a short while, the wolf king was riddled with crossbow bolts and collapsed to the ground.

At this time, the other demon wolves were also eliminated.

"Who are these people? They seem quite strong."

Chu Yunfan stared at the group of people, sizing them up.

At the same time, the leader of this group seemed to have noticed Chu Yunfan's presence and rode over on a black horse.

"Young man, you're quite strong. Surrounded by so many demon wolves, you're still so calm."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yunfan thought to himself:

"Just kidding. I was on Earth all the time, taking risks every day. I've already developed my courage."

Besides, having faced several life-or-death situations in the past few days, I've long since become indifferent to life and death. If you're not convinced, then fight me!

Although he thought this way, Chu Yunfan remained very modest on the surface.

"You flatter me, sir. I was merely putting on a brave face."

You are truly remarkable; with a few words, the wolf pack was almost entirely wiped out.

If you hadn't arrived in time, I would probably be the wolf king's meal by now.

Thank you very much!

After speaking, Chu Yunfan bowed with his hands clasped in greeting.

Upon seeing this, the other party immediately burst into laughter.

"Young man, you are not only courageous, but you also speak very well, which I greatly admire."

Moreover, I see that your strength has reached the first stage of the Martial Beginning Realm, which is just enough to cross the threshold for joining my Black Armor Army.

"Young man, would you be interested in becoming a member of my Black Armor Army?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Yunfan was taken aback. He hadn't expected someone to try to recruit him the moment they met.

However, according to his plan, he was to follow the route given by Nalan Xue to the Qingyun Sword Sect, so he naturally would not accept her invitation.

However, since the other party had just saved him, Chu Yunfan couldn't directly refuse, so he went along with what the other party said and said:

"I am not from Shandi Village. I have come from afar and am just passing through. I do not know the Black Armor Army that you mentioned, sir?"

At this point, Chu Yunfan stared at the other person with a puzzled look on his face.

Seeing this, the captain of this black-armored army, Wang Lijun, spoke up:

"So, young man, you're not from around here!"

"Since that's the case, it's perfect timing. We were just about to return to Moshan City. You can come back with us, and I can show you some hospitality."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yunfan initially wanted to refuse, but then he thought that he would have to pass through Moshan City anyway on his way to Qingyun Sword Sect, and that going to Moshan City with the other party would help him avoid the dangers along the way. So Chu Yunfan nodded in agreement.

Then, as if remembering something, he added:

"I have some urgent business to attend to, please wait a moment, sir."

Upon hearing this, Wang Lijun waved his hand and said:

"We still need to collect the demon wolf's corpse, so we weren't going to set off immediately anyway. You can take care of your own business."

Upon hearing Wang Lijun's reply, Chu Yunfan cupped his hands in greeting and then hurried towards the old man's house.

Soon, Chu Yunfan returned. Based on his previous observations, the old man's family should have hidden in the cellar of the woodshed, so Chu Yunfan went straight to the woodshed.

However, when he saw that the doors and windows of the woodshed had collapsed and the interior was in a mess, his heart skipped a beat. He rushed into the woodshed and saw a two-meter-deep cellar right in front of him. There were torn clothes and bloodstains scattered around the cellar.

When Chu Yunfan saw the fragment of one of the clothes, his eyes narrowed, and he felt a mix of emotions, unsure of where to begin.

He recognized that the fragments of clothing came from the old man's clothes during the day.

The thought that the other person had been so hospitable to him not long ago, but had suddenly passed away without even leaving behind a body, filled Chu Yunfan with a bitter feeling.

Staring at the bloodstains before him, Chu Yunfan stood frozen in place for a long, long time.

Until someone patted him on the shoulder from behind.

"The demon wolves have a keen sense of smell, so hiding is useless. Only by eliminating them can we be safe."

However, there are many villages near Moshan City, and Shandi Village is quite far from Moshan City, so our Black Armor Army cannot take full responsibility for it.

Fortunately, we were nearby and were able to get here in time.

Otherwise, I'm afraid not a single person in this entire village would survive.

The person who patted Chu Yunfan on the shoulder was Wang Lijun.

After hearing Wang Lijun's explanation, Chu Yunfan remained silent.

After a moment, he finally asked a question.

"Is there no cultivator or army stationed in the village to defend against these demonic wolves? Are they just going to let these beasts eat people like this?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Lijun's expression suddenly turned somewhat strange. He glanced at Chu Yunfan before replying:

"Once you become a cultivator, you'll be above everyone else. Who would want to stay in the village?"

Wang Lijun's words were perfectly reasonable.

Chu Yunfan then realized that this was not Earth, but the Qingyun Continent, a world where the strong prey on the weak, and the strong enjoy life while the weak can only accept the arrangements of fate.

Having figured this out, Chu Yunfan said nothing more and turned to follow the Black Armor Army toward Moshan City.

During the journey, Chu Yunfan asked Wang Lijun many questions, claiming that he came from a mountain village and was unfamiliar with the ways of the world.

This includes the overall situation of the Azure Cloud Continent.

According to Wang Lijun's introduction, the Qingyun Continent is roughly divided into five regions: the Northern Underworld Region where he is located, the Eastern Forest Region, the Western Wilderness Region, the Southern Desolate Region, and the Central Region, which is the largest, has the most resources, and is the most prosperous.

And this is only the land portion of the Azure Cloud Continent. Beyond these five domains lie many dangerous and unknown places.

Chu Yunfan then consulted Wang Lijun about the Qingyun Sword Sect.

However, Wang Lijun didn't know much about the Qingyun Sword Sect. He only knew that the Qingyun Sword Sect was once the number one sword sect on the Qingyun Continent, but it seemed to have declined somewhat now.

Of course, even a starved camel is bigger than a horse; the Qingyun Sword Sect is still one of the top sects on the Qingyun Continent.

Finally, Chu Yunfan consulted Wang Lijun on some basic questions about cultivation.

Wang Lijun was very patient with Chu Yunfan's questions, answering them without reservation.

This left a very good impression on Chu Yunfan.

In just a few hours, the two seemed to have become good friends.

This scene left the surrounding black-armored soldiers somewhat puzzled.

"Hey! Li San, don't you think the captain's attitude towards this kid is a little too nice?"

One of the soldiers in black armor whispered to the person next to him.

Upon hearing this, the man also wore a puzzled expression.

"Yes, the captain is usually quite strict, so it's unusual for him to be like this, so patient and smiling. I don't know why."

I see this kid is already twenty years old, but he has only just entered the first stage of the Martial Beginning Realm and become a cultivator.

His talent is just so-so, I don't know what the captain saw in him!

No sooner had he finished speaking than another soldier in black armor suddenly interjected:

"Didn't you guys see? This kid is so handsome. I noticed that the captain's eyes kept glancing over him."

In my opinion, the captain definitely has his eye on him!

Upon hearing this, the other two black-armored soldiers looked incredulous, and even began to stammer.

"You mean, the captain likes men?"

Shh! Don't talk nonsense, or the captain might hear you and kill you!
