BXBX NOVEL Chapter 230 - 155, Three Thousand Thunder Movement!
“So that’s how it is?”
Only then did Lu Yun understand why there were demon beasts in every county, finally getting a clear explanation from Liu Zhong.
Upon careful thought,
it indeed seemed to be the case.
An overly comfortable environment could easily make some people forget the current predicament of Morigin, and only by facing various pressures could it better stimulate a sense of crisis in people’s hearts.
“Brother Lu Yun, what do you plan to do next?”
Seeming to realize that his question might be inappropriate, Liu Zhong quickly added another sentence.
“Before he left, Commander Wang asked me to tell Brother Lu a message, that he will report your merits truthfully, and at that time, you should receive some substantial rewards.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yun was somewhat moved. However, he knew that it might not be so simple, and glanced at Liu Zhong, who seemed hesitant to speak, and asked, “Is there any hidden problem behind this?”
“Because Brother Lu Yun is not a member of the Black Tiger Army, the procedures are a bit troublesome and will take a longer time.”
As he said this, his eyes shifted,
“Commander Wang said that if Brother Lu Yun is willing to join the Black Tiger Army, everything will become simpler, and he also promises that he will try to get you a commander’s position.”
After saying this, he looked at Lu Yun expectantly.
Lu Yun’s talent and strength were undeniably clear. If he were to join the Black Tiger Army, it would undoubtedly add strength to their ranks.
“1 won’t join the Black Tiger Army. I won’t be staying in Spirit Martial Prefecture for too long.”
Without much thought, Lu Yun decisively refused.
The Black Tiger Army was the strongest force in Spirit Martial Prefecture, and if Lu Yun were to join them, his strength and progress would soon make him a high-ranking member within the Black Tiger Army.
But as he just said, he was not destined to stay in Spirit Martial Prefecture for long, so joining the Black Tiger Army would be meaningless.
Liu Zhong was slightly disappointed and sighed, “Before, Commander Wang had already said that the possibility of you joining the Black Tiger Army was not great, but I still wanted to give it a try. It seems that 1 was wishful thinking.”
“However, Brother Lu, you were already able to contend with a Fifth Rank demon beast, and now your strength has made a breakthrough. I beg you to rush to help the Great Wilderness Major City!”
Lu Yun nodded, “I will go to the Great Wilderness Major City, but before that, I have other things to do, so I will take my leave first.”
With a salute, Lu Yun bid farewell and left.
Liu Zhong stood in place, calming his emotions for a while, before glancing at the tavern again and leaving with two members of the Black Tiger Army.
This time he resolved the crisis in Cloud Water County, but it did not mean that all the future troubles were eliminated. Lu Yun bought a bunch of spirit herbs and hurried towards Spirit Creek Village.
What used to take almost half a day now only took a little over an hour.
Spirit Creek Village was still quiet and peaceful, without any disturbances.
Upon entering the village, he saw a group of people led by Lu Tianhu.
“Lu Yun, you’re back!”
“I just happened to pass by, so 1 came to take a look!”
As he spoke, Lu Yun’s eyes fell on the people behind Lu Tianhu, who were both male and female, all of them very young.
They were not of age, their steps were unsteady, and their vitality was weak, without any martial arts foundation.
However, this was quite normal, as these boys and girls were very young and had not yet begun to learn martial arts.
The best age to practice martial arts is around eight or nine, and Lu Yun was quite aware of this.
If the body is not fully developed, practicing martial arts too early will only damage the body and harm its foundation.
“Did you take Uncle Meng’s job?”
“Haha, no, there are now more people in the village, and more and more people need to practice martial arts, and Uncle Meng can’t handle it all by himself, so I’m helping out.”
“Alright, you can go ahead with your work. I have to leave.”
“Take care.”
With a slight smile, Lu Yun stepped away. However, before leaving, he took another look at these young boys and girls.
At a rough glance, there were more than twenty of these young martial arts practitioners, quite a large number.
He wasn’t sure, however, how many of these twenty-plus people would eventually achieve the Meridian Passage Realm.
As for the True Qi Realm,
honestly speaking, Lu Yun didn’t hold high expectations for that.
To advance to the True Qi Realm, one must have at least a Level 2 Innate Talent.
As for those with a one-star Innate Talent, it would be almost impossible without experiencing life-and-death struggles.
After Lu Yun left, someone in the team couldn’t help but ask, “Brother Tianhu, who was that just now? He doesn’t seem to be much older than us.”
On hearing this,
the smile on Lu Tianhu’s face disappeared and became somewhat complicated, making him look somewhat desolate.
Seeing this, the others became even more curious, as Lu Tianhu was usually optimistic and open-minded, with a constant smile on his face when instructing them.
They didn’t know why such a sunny Brother Tianhu would suddenly change like this.
Just as everyone was puzzled, Lu Tianhu’s quiet voice rang out,
“Two years ago, a group of bandits attacked Cloud Water County, and Uncle Meng, Deputy Village Chief, and Old Village Head tried their best to fight them off but couldn’t succeed. Just when Spirit Creek Village was about to be destroyed, a man appeared out of nowhere. With his own strength, he killed nearly a hundred elite bandits and ultimately saved the entire Spirit Creek Village.”
As he said this, the complexity in his eyes disappeared, and a smile reappeared on his face,
“I believe some of you should know who he is.”
Upon hearing this, apart from a few people, most of the others were confused.
The near disaster that occurred two years ago did not bring much catastrophe to Spirit Creek Village, and these children did not feel the danger. They only occasionally heard their elders mention it, and the specific details were not well known..
