As for the remnant soldiers approaching from the east, Xuanyuan Hong had already dispatched several teams to clear them out, leaving thousands of foundation-building monks to clean up the battlefield.
On the way back, Shen Lang found Jiang Hai and asked, "Senior Brother Jiang, how is Senior Brother Lu? Where are you now?"
Jiang Hai smiled and replied: "Your senior brother Lu is guarding the sect and did not participate in this battle. If he knew that you were back, junior brother, he would definitely be extremely surprised."
Shen Lang smiled calmly, since both senior brothers were safe and sound, he felt relieved.
"By the way, why aren't my siblings with you? Is she okay?" Jiang Hai asked curiously.
When Su Ruoxue was mentioned, Shen Lang's face suddenly darkened, a trace of gloom appeared between his brows, and he remained silent.
Sensing Shen Lang's expression, Jiang Hai guessed something in his mind, and his face didn't look too good. He immediately said, "Senior brother, I'm talking too much."
Shen Lang shook his head and said, "It's okay. I'll explain it in detail when I return to Tianquan Sect, junior brother."
"Okay." Jiang Hai nodded solemnly.
Seeing Shen Lang's expression, I guess something happened to Su Ruoxue.
Not long after, Xuanyuan Hong led all the Nascent Soul Stage monks from Beilu to the Great Palace of Juquemen.
Everyone gathered together and sat around, and the maid served spiritual fruits and spiritual wine.
"Thanks to Brother Shen for showing up in time and showing off his power, otherwise I would have fallen into the hands of the Donglin people with my low strength! All fellow Taoists need to be grateful to Fellow Taoist Shen Lang." Xuanyuan said loudly.
As soon as these words came out, all the Nascent Soul stage monks in Beilu did not dare to put on airs, and they all raised fists and saluted towards Shen Lang to express their gratitude.
Nascent Soul monks are still somewhat arrogant in their bones. Shen Lang is too young, which makes some Nascent Soul monks who are senior and self-conscious about their high position unable to restrain themselves from complimenting a kid.
But when Xuanyuan Hong said this, they couldn't care less about this arrogance. Besides, he already had that kind of strength, so they couldn't accept it.
"Thank you, Brother Shen Lang, for rescuing us!"
"Fellow Taoist Shen Lang has amazing magical powers, I admire you!"
"Brother Shen Lang is extremely talented, brave and handsome..."
Everyone complimented her one after another, and her words sounded nice.
Muxue's pretty face was stiff, and she was reluctant to speak down to Shen Lang. She just gritted her silver teeth and said two words: "Thank you."
Shen Lang returned the greetings one by one and said: "Fellow Taoists, you don't have to be so polite. This is Shen's responsibility. Besides, Shen has disappeared for so long and has not returned. I really feel ashamed of the Hokuriku Alliance."
"Hey, what are you talking about? When we faced the Donglin people, Brother Shen made outstanding military exploits, which we can't compare with. It's only been six years since we last met, but I didn't expect that Brother Shen's cultivation would reach the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
, It really makes us ashamed." Xuanyuan Hong sighed.
Shen Lang smiled calmly: "It's just a fluke."
"This is too modest. We old bones can't break through the middle stage in our whole life. Fellow Daoist Shen only spent less than ten years to break through the middle stage. It's really a world of difference." An old man in the early stage of Yuanying in Wanlong Mountain sighed.
road.
These old guys, some of whom have been practicing for eight or nine hundred years, can't cross the threshold of the middle stage of Nascent Soul. Shen Lang broke through the middle stage so easily. It's really infuriating that people are more powerful than others. I can't accept it.
Mu Xue curled her lips. Although she was a little unhappy with Shen Lang, she had to admit that this guy was a pervert. I really didn't know how he practiced. He couldn't practice so fast while riding a rocket, right?
"Brother Shen, you are only over a hundred years old. At such an age, you can break through the middle stage of Yuanying. Your strength is far superior to that of ordinary middle stage monks. It may not be difficult for Brother Shen to enter the stage of transformation into gods in the future." Xuanyuan Hong. smiled.
"Brother Xuanyuan is joking." Shen Lang said modestly.
He also had a sweet dream of advancing to the Divine Transformation Stage, but Shen Lang also knew that it was absolutely impossible to achieve such a breakthrough in the Divine Transformation Stage.
There are very few monks in the human world who are in the stage of becoming gods, and those who are capable have basically ascended.
Shen Lang thought about it, and he estimated that he might not be able to break through the divine transformation stage in five or six hundred years just by practicing hard on his own. Moreover, he still had to look for the materials for the resurrection technique, so he didn't have that much time to go into retreat.
But if there are all kinds of adventures, it may be possible to break through the divine transformation stage. After all, this is how cultivation is, there are opportunities amidst hardships and dangers.
In the main hall, all the Beilu Nascent Soul monks praised and complimented Shen Lang. Shen Lang was neither humble nor arrogant, and his attitude was very humble. He did not have the arrogance and vigor of a young man at all. Instead, he looked like an old monster in a deep city.
Being so low-key and cautious, all the Nascent Soul stage monks also felt that Shen Lang's breakthrough to his current level was not entirely due to talent and chance.
The happiest person is Jiang Hai. He has no selfish motives and is just purely happy for Shen Lang's strength.
All the Nascent Soul stage monks raised their glasses frequently, all wanting to make friends with Shen Lang.
Shen Lang didn't show any pretense and drank happily with the monks.
"Brother Shen, your strength is not what it used to be. Are you interested in joining the frontline battle in the Tongyou Mountains? If Brother Shen agrees, the alliance will definitely give you extremely generous rewards." Xuanyuan Hong got straight to the point and asked what he wanted to ask the most. The problem.
"This... Shen's purpose is only to protect the Tianquan Sect, and he has no interest in frontline battles. But if the Donglin people attack, Shen will still help defend the enemy. As for the reward, Shen is not lacking. "
Shen Lang did not agree directly, nor did he refuse outright. He was not that great yet. He risked his life for Yunjian Beilu, etc. His original intention was just to protect Tianquan Sect.
Besides, it is basically impossible for the Hokuriku Monk Alliance to find what he wants. The materials on the Jade Slip of the Resurrection Technique are too outrageous.
"All right."
Xuanyuan Hong was a little disappointed, but overall he was in a good mood.
Shen Lang's return means that Yunjian Beilu has an important backbone. Even if he cannot take the initiative, he can be used as a solid backing.
Not long after, the banquet ended and everyone dispersed.
"Junior brother, will you come back to Tianquan Sect with me?" Jiang Hai asked.
"Go and have a look."
Shen Lang nodded.
Now that the eastward vanguard army in Piao Miao Mountain has been annihilated, Tianquan Sect will not be in crisis for the time being. Shen Lang plans to go to the Lei Sea in Beiliang Land to collect information about Lei Shen after meeting the two senior brothers.
Half an hour later.
Shen Lang followed Jiang Hai and the others back to Tianquan Sect.
In the Tianquan Sect's main hall, Shen Lang and Lu Yuan met.
When he learned that Shen Lang had returned and showed great power in the battle, Lu Yuan was also extremely surprised and overjoyed.
"Junior brother, you are not what you used to be. You are really a blessing to our Tianquan Sect. A weak sect like Tianquan Sect may not be able to keep you." Lu Yuan said with emotion.
"Senior brother, what are you talking about? Of course I am still the elder of Tianquan Sect." Shen Lang frowned.
Lu Yuan smiled and said: "Junior brother, you don't have to be like this. Senior Brother Jiang and I will never keep you. With your talent and strength, you shouldn't stay in a small place like Tianquan Sect and be content with it. You can go out on your own. If Tianquan Sect is If one day we really face the crisis of annihilation of our family, it will be enough if our junior brother can come to our rescue."
