Two months later.

Beneath the endless calm Purple Lake, the ninety-foot-deep lake bottom was pitch black without a single ray of light.

And in this darkness, there seemed to be a medium-sized ice cage, and inside the ice cage, Lu An was practicing with his eyes closed.

This month of training was extremely hard for him, much more difficult than when he was a first-level Heavenly Master.

There is no other reason, just because practicing under such pressure will seriously consume your physical strength and fatigue. From the beginning, you can't concentrate on practicing at a depth of 60 feet, to being able to concentrate on practicing for an hour, and finally to adapt a little bit, and then increase the depth.

Lu An suffered every step of the way. In the past two months, he could count the number of times he returned to the City Lord's Mansion on both hands.

Lu An's perseverance, even Yang Meiren was a little stunned. What surprised her was not Lu An's physical strength, but Lu An's willpower. You know, people's physical strength is limited, and their mental endurance is also limited. In the dark

, and it is very difficult for people to endure near silence. Even if a heavenly master can withstand the pressure of a depth of 60 feet, he will definitely go crazy mentally if he cannot bear it for a quarter of an hour!

However, Lu An had to wait at least a day once he entered. This kind of mental endurance could not be achieved by a second-level Celestial Master, let alone a fourth-level Celestial Master.

Facts have finally proved that efforts and rewards are directly proportional. Originally, Lu An thought it would take at least four months to become the second-level Celestial Master, but he had successfully broken through in just two months. Just yesterday, he had just successfully reached the second-level Celestial Master.

Lu An, who felt that his strength had increased a lot since he reached the mid-level level, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, after practicing for another day today, Lu An found that after reaching the middle stage, the effect of such pressure on his cultivation seemed to suddenly slow down, as if he had suddenly adapted a lot. However, Jiu Shi Zhang has already

This is his limit now. If he goes deeper, he can no longer guarantee his own safety.

Even here, he has encountered several attacks by third-level strange beasts in the past two months, and each time he was able to escape with the help of the Demon God Realm. If he encountered a fourth-level strange beast, he was afraid that he would not even be able to call out to Yang Meiren.

There is no time.

After practicing until noon, Lu An felt

After making almost no progress, he stood up at the bottom of the lake, and then jumped out of the ice cage. His body rose like an arrow in the dark lake water, and he passed the ninety-foot distance in less than ten breaths. On the lake surface

A 'bang' sound came out!

Appearing under the blue sky again, Lu An took a deep breath and ran quickly towards the lake. There was a simple wooden house not far from the shore, which was Lu An's residence.

Dragging his water-soaked body, Lu An walked into the wooden house soaking wet, took out a set of clean clothes from his ring and changed into them. After changing, he felt relaxed and couldn't help but move his body. After thinking about it, he felt

I should also go back to the city lord's mansion.

This time, he has been out for more than half a month without going back. Although Yang Meiren came to see him once, he should go back and say hello. And if he doesn't go back, I'm afraid Yang Mu will be very dissatisfied with him.

Thinking of Yang Mu, Lu An couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't know why, but Yang Mu really liked being with him. When he first came to Purple Lake to practice, Yang Mu almost followed him. If it weren't for the fact that Purple Lake was too boring, plus

If Yang Meiren stops him, I'm afraid Yang Mu will really practice with him.

After roughly cleaning himself up, Lu An quickly set off and rushed to the city lord's mansion.

Half an hour later.

When Lu An appeared in the city lord's palace, it was just 3:30 in the morning, and Yang Meiren was handling various affairs in the main hall. Lu An stood outside the main hall door, looking at Yang Meiren holding a meeting for everyone, and he didn't

I'm going to bother you, and I'm going to see Lu An again in the afternoon.

However, the appearance of Lu An would not escape Yang Meiren's eyes. She suddenly spoke and said to Lu An who was about to leave outside the door, "Lu An, come in!"

Lu An was slightly startled when he heard this. He didn't know why Yang Meiren stopped him, but he still walked into the main hall.

"Sit down." Yang Meiren pointed to her right

A position at hand, said.

This position was obviously very important, and the people around him were startled when Lu An was called to sit. Lu An also smiled bitterly in his heart, but didn't say anything, walked over and sat down.

Everyone saw Lu An sitting down, and their surprises still did not diminish. Although Lu An rarely appeared in the past two months, they were so shrewd that they had discovered early that the city lord seemed to have a close relationship with this young man. The matter of Lu An moving into the pavilion was also

There was no hiding it, which allowed everyone to speculate on Lu An's identity.

"You came just in time, I was just about to announce something." Yang Meiren glanced at Lu An, then looked at everyone, and said, "This morning, the envoys from Shang Qi just came here and said that they were going to

Held the ceremony of the new king’s enthronement, we are invited to participate and share in the prosperous times.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, with shock in their eyes!

Is Shang Qi going to change its king?

On the side, Lu An was also obviously startled, because he remembered that the eldest prince during the forest game was the prince of Shang Qi. Could it be said that the eldest prince was going to become the king?

"The throne has naturally been passed on to the eldest prince." Yang Meiren said calmly, as if she was telling Lu An specifically, "This matter is indeed a major event for Shang Qi State. As our neighbor, Shang Qi State, we

Of course you have to go, and you have to show enough respect."

Everyone nodded in agreement after hearing this. Indeed, as a neighboring country, Shang Qi has always been at peace with Purple Lake City over the years, and trade has been frequent. The king naturally has to pay great attention to such a major event.

And if you pay attention to it, you will naturally send important people there.

"I won't go." Yang Meiren glanced at everyone and declared directly, "So, I am going to send my daughter to go. She is the only princess in Purple Lake City, so going is already a great honor."

Everyone suddenly smiled bitterly after hearing this, because they did not dare to refute the city lord's decision. However, the cold temperament of the city lord was known to the neighboring countries. Even if the city lord did not go, Shang Qi would understand.

"But,

Isn't it good for Princess Guang to go alone?" A person said, hesitatingly, "Although the status of the princess is sufficient, she is still a bit alone when going alone. She should have a luxurious ceremony team and some senior executives as companions.

, it shows the importance and strength of our Zihu."

"Of course." Yang Meiren said, "I will leave the matter of the ceremonial team to you. The ceremony to go to Qi State will be in a week, and the team will set off in two days."

"Yes, City Lord." The man heard the words and said quickly.

Then, Yang Meiren turned to look at Lu An and said, "I remember that you also have a relationship with the King of Shang Qi who is about to take office, right?"

Hearing this, Lu An nodded and said, "It's not really a friendship. I formed a team with him when we were in the forest."

"Then this kind of friendship is not a shallow one, and you saved his life." Yang Meiren said, "This time when you go to Shang Qi, you should accompany Mu'er. She will be too lonely to go alone, and if

She would definitely not be willing to go alone."

Lu An was startled when he heard Yang Meiren's words. Only then did he realize that this was the reason why Yang Meiren asked him to enter the main hall. However, this matter would definitely take a long time and would delay his cultivation for several days.

However, just when Lu An was about to refuse, he heard a sound.

"You have been practicing for two months, it's time to give yourself a few days of rest." A voice came into Lu An's ears, and he said softly, "Besides, if you don't stay with Mu'er, she will definitely keep looking for you.

trouble."

Lu An was startled and looked at Yang Meiren in astonishment. It was obvious that Yang Meiren used some special methods to transmit the sound to his ears. Looking at Yang Meiren's serious look, Lu An couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Indeed, Yang Mu went to the wooden house to look for him countless times, but failed countless times. It is said that he was in a very bad mood. If he hadn't gone, I'm afraid Yang Mu wouldn't have let him leave easily if he caught him.

After all, you should pay a certain price for using someone else's Zihu...

"Okay." Lu An took a breath and said, "I'll go with her."
