The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

As a major prefecture of the Qin state, Kuaiji Commandery was located east of the sea, south of Minyue, west of Danyang, and north of the Yangtze River, making it an important hub connecting the north and south and linking the east and west.

Lu Yao rode his horse at full speed and finally arrived near Pei County, not far from Kuaiji County.

Not far from his destination, Lu Yao began to stroll leisurely, enjoying the scenery along the way.

On the day he passed through a bamboo forest, Lu Yao felt a strange sense of familiarity.

Suddenly, sounds of fighting and screams came from the front of the bamboo forest.

"No way, what a coincidence?"

Lu Yao was stunned. Wasn't this the plot where Yi Xiaochuan saved Lu Gong and his group?

He shook his head, stopped thinking about it, and immediately spurred his swift horse toward the battleground.

Several bandits were seen robbing people of valuables.

The guards of the Lü family were about to be overwhelmed, and many servants and maids had already been injured and fallen to the ground.

"Oh my, there's a pretty young lady here too! I'm so lucky today!"

A bandit slashed the coachman to the ground with a knife, and when he pulled back the curtain, he saw two beautiful young girls.

The two girls were terrified and shrank into a corner in fear.

"Haha, someone lend a hand!"

The thug leered at the beautiful woman in front of him, then turned and shouted at his henchmen.

The bandits dragged one of the girls off the carriage, and another bandit, seeing this, also stepped forward with a lewd expression to help hold the girl down.

The girl screamed in terror and struggled wildly.

But it was clear that her resistance was futile.

The girl's clothes were being torn apart, and she looked utterly desperate.

"Sister! Sister!"

Another girl watched her younger sister in danger and cried out anxiously.

Just then, a long sword shot through the air and swiftly pierced the body of the bandit who was about to commit indecent assault.

The bandit was thrown several meters by the force of the longsword and pinned to the ground, screaming in agony.

Lu Yao, who arrived on horseback, leaped into the air and kicked another bandit next to the girl away.

"Are you okay, miss."

Seeing that her clothes were disheveled, Lu Yao quickly took off his robe and draped it over the girl.

Lu Yao looked around, drew a long sword from a bandit next to him, and rushed towards the other bandits.

He specially used Fusu's connections to hire a renowned swordsman to teach him martial arts.

Although I've only studied for a year, I'm more than capable of dealing with these bandits.

Just then, a figure in white robes joined the battle.

He was holding a thin bamboo stick, and with a few swift movements, he knocked down one of the bandits.

"He must be Yi Xiaochuan."

Lu Yao killed the bandit in front of him with a single sword strike and looked in Yi Xiaochuan's direction.

The two quickly drove off all the bandits, but Yi Xiaochuan clearly showed mercy.

Lu Yao directly killed all his opponents.

This group of bandits robbed, raped, and kidnapped, committing all sorts of atrocities. He had no qualms about killing them.

However, Lu Yao naturally wouldn't say it out loud. He had his own thoughts, and Yi Xiaochuan also had his own opinions. There was no need to say it out loud and cause trouble.

In the end, only three of the robbers escaped in disarray, each wishing they had an extra leg.

"This fellow is quite skilled in martial arts!"

Lu Yao walked over to Yi Xiaochuan and exclaimed in admiration.

Yi Xiaochuan's martial arts skills, after being trained by Xiang Liang, are indeed quite good.

"This fellow is not bad either."

Yi Xiaochuan chuckled nonchalantly and said casually.

"Thank you both, brave warriors! If it weren't for your help, we would have been in grave danger."

An old man led two young girls to Lu Yao and his companion, and thanked them.

"You flatter me, sir. This is what we should do."

Lu Yao responded by cupping his hands in greeting.

"That's right, don't be polite, this is what we, the new generation of young people, should do."

Yi Xiaochuan's inexplicable words left everyone except Lu Yao completely bewildered.

"My surname is Lü, and I am known as Lord Lü. These are my eldest daughter, Lü Zhi, and my youngest daughter, Lü Su. Why don't you two come and pay your respects to the two young masters?"

After introducing the group, Lu Gong asked the two women to thank Lu Yao and Yi Xiaochuan.

"Zhi'er/Su'er thanks the two gentlemen."

The two women bowed slightly and thanked Lu Yao and his companion softly.

Lu Suwei lowered her head and walked up to Lu Yao.

"Young master, your clothes..."

Lu Su spoke in a soft, gentle voice, touching her clothes as she looked at Lu Yao.

"Miss Su, please put this on first."

Lu Yao naturally wouldn't ask for the clothes back at this time, and whispered to Lü Su.

"Thank you, sir."

Lu Su thanked her and then pulled Lu Zhi into the carriage.

Inside the carriage.

"Oh dear, Susu, why did you pull me away? I haven't even said anything yet."

Lü Zhi said irritably, glancing at Yi Xiaochuan outside the window from time to time.

"Sister, I am so poorly clothed, how can I stay any longer?"

Lu Su said, feeling wronged.

"Okay, okay, Susu, hurry up and change your clothes, I'll help you."

Lü Zhi also realized that her sister had just been frightened and her clothes were in disarray, so it was inconvenient for her to stay outside.

"I have a request that I cannot make, and I hope you two brave men will forgive me."

After the two women left, Lu Gong bowed and spoke to Lu Yao and the other man.

"Please speak freely, sir."

Lu Yao glanced at Yi Xiaochuan, and seeing that he didn't speak, he spoke up.

Yi Xiaochuan also led his horse over.

"My two brave men, I would like to ask you to escort us for a while to prevent those bandits from returning."

Lu Gong was still somewhat frightened by what had just happened, and sincerely spoke to Lu Yao and the other man.

"We were enjoying the scenery downstream and fortunately nothing happened. It would be perfectly acceptable to escort Lord Lü for a while."

Lu Yao's goal was to follow Yi Xiaochuan, so naturally he wouldn't refuse.

Yi Xiaochuan hesitated slightly upon hearing this.

"I am still traveling to Yan, so I am afraid it will be inconvenient to escort you. Please forgive me."

Yi Xiaochuan is now in a hurry to go to Yan to find Tangwushan and does not want to waste time.

"Oh? Brave warrior, you're heading to Yan? Our destination is Pei County, both in the north, so it's conveniently on our way!"

When Lu Gong heard that Yi Xiaochuan was going to Yan, what a coincidence!

"Since it's on the way, I agree to escort you."

Yi Xiaochuan was surprised that everyone was going the same way. Since that was the case, it was no problem to escort them for a while.

"Then thank you both very much. May I ask your names and hometowns?"

Lu Gong was overjoyed. With the two men escorting him all the way, he could finally relax and asked them their names.

"My name is Lu Yao."

"My name is Yi Xiaochuan."

After giving their names, the two men mounted their horses and set off with the caravan.

……

"If I kill Yi Xiaochuan directly, how much world origin will I get?"

Looking at Yi Xiaochuan on the other side of the carriage, Lu Yao thought to himself.

Only by manipulating the world lines can one obtain the world's origin. Directly killing the cultivator should also count, since the world lines are severed.

"We need to find an opportunity to try it out. Yi Xiaochuan is the main character and we can't touch him. Let's try it on other people first."

Lu Yao stroked his chin, lost in thought.

Just then, the carriage stopped.

"My two brave warriors, the weather is hot. Please dismount and rest for a while."

Lu Gong came to the two men and invited them to rest for a while.

Before long, Lu Yao and Yi Xiaochuan sat down to rest at the small table that the servants had prepared.
