Danzun War God

Chapter Twenty-Four Forbidden Land

At this moment, Chen Wei had already transformed into human form. Upon hearing Lu Yuanba's words, he immediately shouted, "Brother, don't believe him. Letting him go back is like releasing a tiger back into the mountains. He is Lu Hongsheng's nephew. If Lu Hongsheng finds out that you injured his nephew, he will definitely seek revenge on you."

Han Qi said, "It's alright, I have my own plans."

After saying that, he stared at Lu Yuanba and said, "Then tell me, what in the forbidden area can save your life?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuanba felt there was hope, and a wicked smile flashed across his lips as he said, "The forbidden area is actually an ancient secret realm, filled with ancient secret techniques that can greatly increase your cultivation in a short period of time."

Han Qi smiled slightly, neither confirming nor denying, then asked Lu Yuanba, "If it's so good, why don't you go yourself?"

Lu Yuanba smiled wryly and said, "This secret realm is not a place that anyone can go to. On the one hand, the Xuantian Sect has experts stationed at the entrance, and on the other hand, only people with multiple attribute talents can enter the secret realm. I am not a person with multiple attributes."

Han Qi thought for a moment and said, "You swear a blood oath to guarantee that what you say is true."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuanba said with a sigh of relief, "Alright, I will swear a blood oath."

Han Qi conjured several hand gestures out of thin air and then gestured for Lu Yuanba to swear an oath.

Lu Yuanba raised his right hand and said, "I, Lu Yuanba, hereby swear a blood oath to my soul that I will not seek revenge against Han Qi for what happened today, and I will tell Han Qi the location of the entrance to the forbidden area of ​​Xuantian Sect. If I break this oath, I am willing to be punished by heaven."

After Lu Yuanba finished speaking, a red talisman appeared out of thin air and entered Lu Yuanba's brow. With this, Lu Yuanba's blood oath was complete, and his actions were now directly bound by the power of Heaven.

Han Qi then waved to Lu Yuanba and said, "You can go now! After you recover, we'll go to the forbidden area behind the mountain."

After Lu Yuanba limped away, Lin Yuyao looked at Han Qi with teary eyes and said, "Brother Qi, why did you take so long to come? I almost never saw you again."

“Yes, brother, these people are all at the late stage of the Tribulation Realm, and they are very difficult to deal with. If you had arrived any later, the consequences would have been unimaginable,” Chen Wei said solemnly.

Han Qi then asked, "How did you meet? How did you end up here?"

The two exchanged a glance, and Lin Yuyao pouted and said, "We were watching 'Fire Clouds Dancing in the Sky' on the back mountain when they happened to pass by and came up to provoke us. They fought their way here."

Han Qi nodded slightly and said, "Thank goodness you two are alright. Chen Wei, you suffered internal injuries. Let's go back. You should also take good care of yourself and focus on improving your cultivation, otherwise it will be troublesome if you run into them again." The two nodded, and then the three of them walked back.

Several days passed in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, inside the Xuantian Sect's Martial Arts Hall, Lu Yuanba was reporting to Lu Hongsheng about something. Lu Yuanba's main purpose in going out this time was to purchase medicinal herbs for the Xuantian Sect. Originally, this was not a task that Lu Yuanba should have been assigned, but this job was quite lucrative, so he managed to snatch it away.

Lu Yuanba purchased the medicinal herbs in Muyun City this time, since he and the Lu family of Muyun City belonged to the same lineage, and he wanted to keep the profits within the family. Naturally, he brought back some news from Muyun City with him.

Lu Yuanba told his uncle Lu Hongsheng about how Lu Yong had been severely injured by Han Qi half a year ago and had taken away a pill-refining room from the Lu family. Lu Hongsheng said indifferently, "What is the attitude of the family head, Lu Hongyuan?"

Lu Yuanba immediately said, "The patriarch would like to ask you to take action, just as you would with the Nangong family."

Upon hearing this, Lu Hongsheng immediately flew into a rage, thinking to himself: "The Nangong family, I've carried this infamy for over a decade. If it weren't for the position of family head, how could it have fallen to Lu Hongyuan? And yet, he dares to bring this up again! This time, I'll repay him for this infamy!" However, he remained outwardly calm and said indifferently, "The Han family is nothing to worry about. Let me plan this out. Come find me again tomorrow and send someone to Muyun City to hand it over to the family head."

Lu Yuanba respectfully said, "Alright, then I'll take my leave." Seeing Lu Hongsheng wave his hand, he then walked towards the door.

Just as they reached the door, Lu Hongsheng said again, "Yuanba, wait a moment, I have a question for you." When Lu Yuanba walked up to him, he whispered, "Is Han Qi from the Danxiu lineage the eldest son of the Han family who injured Lu Yong?"

Lu Yuanba said, "I've also asked about this. The eldest young master of the Han family hasn't been in Muyun City recently. Based on the timeline, it shouldn't be wrong."

"Alright, I understand. Go ahead," Lu Hongsheng said. After Lu Yuanba left, Lu Hongsheng stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, a wicked smile playing on his lips.

The next day, Lu Yuanba arrived at the Martial Arts Hall. Lu Hongsheng handed him a secret letter that he had prepared beforehand. Lu Yuanba hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Uncle, why have you kept preventing me from entering the forbidden area of ​​our Xuantian Sect? I've been here for two years now, and everyone who enters the forbidden area comes out at the Saint Infant Realm. I also want to..."

"Shut up! Don't mention this again!" Before Lu Yuanba could finish speaking, Lu Hongsheng interrupted him sharply, then said in a slightly gentler tone, "Not letting you go is for your own good. You'll understand later."

"I just want to know the reason. You said before that only the dead can go in. What's going on?" He finished speaking and looked stubbornly at Lu Hongsheng.

Seeing Lu Yuanba's resolute expression, Lu Hongsheng knew that further evasion would be futile. Lu Yuanba would not give up until he got an answer today. So he sighed and said, "I can tell you, but you must keep it a secret and not divulge a single word."

"Don't worry, Uncle, I know the seriousness of this matter and I will definitely keep my mouth shut," Lu Yuanba assured him, patting his chest.

Lu Hongsheng then said, "This forbidden area was set up by the sect leader many years ago. It is actually a demonic spirit secret realm. It is said to be a mass grave of the demon army, gathering countless demonic spirits. It is full of demonic nature and malevolence. Normal people cannot withstand the invasion of demonic nature and malevolence when they enter. They will eventually die in losing themselves and have their bodies possessed by the demonic spirits inside."

Lu Hongsheng's words confirmed Lu Yuanba's thoughts. There had been rumors that disciples who came out of the forbidden area would undergo a significant personality change, as if they were completely different people. Lu Yuanba guessed that there must be something wrong with the people who came out of the forbidden area.

"Where did the disciples who came out of the forbidden area go?" Lu Yuanba asked immediately afterward.

Lu Hongsheng shook his head and said, "I don't know about that. They were all taken away by the sect leader after they came out." He paused and then said, "Go ahead, but whatever you do, don't even think about entering the forbidden area."
