Just as Yuan Xi appeared like a ghost in the dilapidated Hedao City, now she once again appeared next to Lu Ye like a ghost.
Not to mention that Lu Ye didn't notice it, even the old man didn't notice it in advance.
But the moment he saw Yuan Xi, the old man's expression changed drastically.
He had never personally experienced how strong Yuan Xi was, but he had seen the scene in which this woman dealt with the entire Liuguang Hedao City on her own before, so he knew clearly that he could not be his opponent at all.
Why is she here?
Didn't the city lord drive Hedao City to hunt her down?
Without any time to think, the old man immediately collected his Taoist soldiers and fled into the distance without looking back.
Since he knew he was no match, of course he had to run for his life.
"Wait for me here." Yuan Xi ordered, then chased after him in a flash.
Both of them were extremely fast and disappeared from Lu Ye's sight in the blink of an eye.
Lu Ye, who was lucky enough to escape, exhaled softly, looked at the direction Yuan Xi left, and frowned slightly.
Like the old man, he also wanted to know why Yuan Xi appeared here!
He previously thought that Yuan Xi only regarded him as a chess piece that could be discarded at will, and brought him here just to attract the enemy's attention. Who would have thought that at this most critical moment, Yuan Xi would actually come out and save him.
From this point of view, Yuan Xi was blameless for diverting trouble to the east, but she probably had no intention of giving up on herself, so she immediately ran to find her after getting rid of her pursuers.
As for why she was able to find this place accurately... Lu Ye guessed that she had tampered with the empty box before. The old man crushed the box, and there might be some imperceptible information left on him.
There is no need to complain, he and Yuan Xi are neither relatives nor friends. If they were really friends, he would still be angry and annoyed if Yuan Xi did this.
In the final analysis, he is still too weak. If he is really strong enough, then Yuan Xi will not be the one taking the lead this time.
The clone arrived late and Lu Ye recovered it.
After a while, Yuan Xi also came back.
He looked Lu Ye up and down, his eyes sparkling, and he praised sincerely: "You are indeed my commander-in-chief. I really didn't make a mistake."
Lu Ye looked at her expressionlessly. Although he would not be angry, he was taken advantage of after all, and he felt unhappy.
But Yuan Xi didn't open any pot and asked: "Are you angry?"
"Don't dare!" Lu Ye responded calmly.
Yuan Xi said: "Don't be angry. I killed that guy to help you vent your anger! Moreover, you have made great achievements in taking over this time. I have to thank you properly."
Lu Ye said: "My lord, it's serious, I didn't do anything." He was the one who was being hunted from the beginning to the end, and it was quite embarrassing. This was the first large-scale fight he came into contact with after entering the inner world. Looking at it,
The overall situation is truly thrilling and exciting.
Yuan Xi shook his head: "If you hadn't lured away one of their Hedao, I wouldn't have been able to get rid of it so easily... Well, speaking of it, it was my mistake. I thought they would send another Hedao to chase you, that one was very weak.
, I think you were promoted to Hedao not long ago, and with the strength of the commander, you can probably handle it, but I didn't expect them to send that old guy, in short, it's my fault."
Lu Ye frowned slightly.
Yuan Xi's words sounded strange. How could she know her strength? How could she be sure that she could deal with a Hedao?
He was silent and said: "Sir, save my life, and we will treat it as even."
There wasn't much of anything to do with each other. Although the previous crisis arose because of Yuan Xi, she did come over to save him at the critical moment. He didn't owe anyone anything.
Yuan Xi tilted his head and glanced at Lu Ye, then smiled and said, "Okay, then come back with me."
The two of them embarked on their return journey.
Half a month later, I returned to Hedao City in Yuanxi. The journey was peaceful. I met a monk by chance on the road, but they were far away from each other.
Although Yuan Xi rebuilt the basic framework of such a dilapidated city before, it is actually not a valuable thing in the inner world, so even if no one is left to guard it, there is no need to worry about it being stolen.
City Lord's Mansion, in the central hall.
The entire central hall, from the inside to the outside, is covered with dense and intricate patterns, except for a circular high platform in the center.
This is the most important core of the entire Hedao City, and it is also the place where the Hedao Pearl is placed.
The original central hall was in dilapidated condition, but it was restored by Yuan Xi.
She has obtained a Hedao Pearl this time. What she will do when she comes back is of course to place this treasure and activate the power of the entire Hedao City.
Lu Ye had never seen it before, so he came with her to have a look.
On the way back, he specifically inquired with Yuan Xi and learned that there was indeed more than one Hedao Pearl born in the wonder of the starry sky, and there seemed to be three in total.
Yuan Xi grabbed one, Lu Ye got one, and the other one was snatched away by another Hedao.
There was a groove on the circular high platform, which was exactly where the Hedao Bead was placed. Yuan Xi held the small Hedao Bead and threw it directly in.
Then... there is no more.
Lu Ye was dumbfounded. He thought there were some particularly complicated methods or rituals to activate Hedao City. Who would have thought it was that simple?
But then I thought about it, it was not easy, because Yuan Xi had made a lot of arrangements in advance.
After the Hedao Bead, which was originally inconspicuous, suddenly emitted a soft light after being placed in it, the light bloomed from the groove and immediately flowed outward like running water.
Many complicated lines spread out in all directions, lighting up pleasing to the eye. In a short time, the entire central hall was enveloped in the soft light. Lu Ye and Yuan Xi were bathed in it. Looking from a distance, it actually seemed to be somewhat sacred and inviolable.
A buzzing sound...
Hedao City, which had not moved since ancient times, let out a buzzing sound, and continued to vibrate for more than ten breaths before stopping.
"It's done!" Yuan Xi stroked his hands, obviously very happy, "From now on, Yuan Xi Hedao City will truly be worthy of its name!"
Before having his own Hedao Pearl, Yuanxi Hedao City just had an empty name and could not be regarded as the real Hedao City.
But it's different with the Hedao Pearl. Only those who have the Hedao Pearl are the real Hedao City.
From today on, as long as Yuan Xi, the city lord, is within the range covered by the power of Hedao City, he can use the power of Hedao City to fight against others and exert strength beyond his own cultivation.
"Congratulations, sir." Lu Ye congratulated.
"Same joy!" Yuan Xi smiled with eyes widened, "Commander, I have left a mansion for you near the city lord's palace. The formations have also been arranged. You can clean it up yourself later and practice there.
The efficiency will be better.”
Lu Ye looked at Yuan Xi in surprise when he heard this.
She had never told him this before.
There are many mysteries in Hedao City. When Lu Ye was chatting with Yun Shiwang, Yun Shiwang told him this information.
The biggest mystery is of course that it allows the city lord to exert stronger strength within the coverage of Hedao City's power.
But for monks who are not city lords, the most important mystery is that the efficiency of practice in Hedao City will be higher.
Because the Hedao Pearl is a treasure that can control the power of Xingyuan Dao, its broken fragments are considered to be of treasure quality and continue its power.
If such fragments of Hedao beads are placed in Hedao City, it will make it easier for the entire Hedao City to gather the Tao power in the star abyss.
The effect is similar to the major spiritual islands in the Vientiane Sea. In such an environment, monks will naturally practice more efficiently.
Therefore, in the inner world, Hedao City is the mainstream, and there are countless Hedao City, large and small. The big fish eats the small fish, and the small fish eats the shrimp. Many disputes arise from this.
This is also the reason why most monks in the inner world will find a suitable Hedao city to take refuge in if they do not have the ability to build a Hedao city by themselves. Even some Hedao cities are not exempt from the common practice, let alone Fusion Dao.
Attached to different Hedao cities.
Just the improvement of practice efficiency is not something that just anyone can resist.
However, unlike the Spirit Island in the Wanxiang Sea, in Hedao City, if the city lord has the intention, it will be more efficient for monks like Lu Ye who hold important positions to practice in a specific location.
For him now, the specific location is naturally the Dadu Tongfu left to him by Yuan Xi, where there are various arrangements left by Yuan Xi himself.
This should not be compensation for what happened before.
Because this was arranged by Yuan Xi before leaving Hedao City.
Lu Ye didn't know what to say for a moment, and his mood was even a little complicated.
He and Yuan Xi had known each other for a short time, and there was no friendship at all between them. It was even said that Yuan Xi's appointment of him as the chief minister of Hedao City was a bit of a family affair.
It's just that Lu Ye is not as strong as others, so he can only accept his fate and follow her wishes.
But I didn’t expect that the city lord would still miss him...
After pondering for a moment, Lu Ye touched his nose and said, "Sir, actually I still have a Hedao Bead on my body!"
Yuan Xi turned his head to look at him.
Lu Ye took out the Hedao Bead from his arms, handed it to Yuan Xi and said, "When the Lord was still in the hive, someone brought out a Hedao Bead, but I snatched it away."
Lu Ye was not moved by offering this Hedao Pearl that he had kept privately.
The main reason is that this thing is difficult to store and cannot be stored in the storage ring and the little flower world. Lu Ye has to spend all his energy to cover up its aura.
Don't accidentally leak the aura of the Hedao Pearl when fighting with others in the future, and you will be in trouble.
He actually had this idea before, and just threw this thing to Yuan Xi.
But I am somewhat unwilling to do so.
Now that Yuan Xi is thinking about him, he doesn't care about making a contribution. Anyway, Hedao City is stronger and he can benefit from it.
"Ha!" Yuan Xile said, "Dadu Tong, you actually grabbed one too!"
She didn't care at all that Lu Ye didn't report the matter to her immediately. There was no majesty of the city lord at all. Instead, she was very happy to see another Hedao Pearl.
