Beginning to practice immortality as a refugee

Chapter 720: Destroying Demons
As for why several of his brothers who were originally bachelors found Taoist partners, Lu Ye also understood.

After decades of chaos, the rebellion was finally put down.

The surviving humans and demons returned to their homes and settled down after some hard work. Those pairs of Taoist companions who escaped the disaster naturally cherished their current lives very much and might even have two or three more cubs.

As for those who are single, having seen their relatives and friends die, most of them don't want to be alone anymore and are looking for suitable marriage partners.

People from Zhongxiang Island naturally became popular. Apart from anything else, just for the golden signboard of Lu Shengren, there is no telling how many female cultivators would want to marry into the island.

Princess Longfu took the initiative. She had a closer relationship with Nakago Island than any other family and went to the family’s house in person to act as a matchmaker.

Of course, her methods were clever and not so brutal. Wang Snake Palace had several younger sisters who were all unmarried. They were brought by Princess Longfu and lived directly on Zhongxiang Island for half a year.

The reasons are all ready.

The King Snake Palace was once occupied by the demons. Those winged demons stayed there for decades. The place was in a mess and smelled foul. It was really not a place for humans to stay and needed time to clean up.

So it must be reasonable for me to stay with my good sister Pan Furong for a while, right?
Sure enough, in less than half a year, the fifth brother Gui Baozhu and Princess Long Ling took a fancy to him and they became lovers.

Then there is Shu Chitu, he is a rat demon, and the Dragon Girl naturally has the power of a dragon, which makes him feel a little uncomfortable.

Therefore, for half a year, he did not have any worldly thoughts.

It was just when Nakago Island was rebuilt.

Elder Tie Gong is old and lacks energy. He is in charge of external affairs and of course has the most dealings with the Nanliu Sect, the largest sect in the region.

The one who was connected with them was none other than Mo Xiangfei, a true disciple of Nanliu Sect. This female cultivator specialized in literature and usually loved to compose poetry.

Shu Chitu is a little demon who has achieved enlightenment in the imperial palace's library. He also loves reading books. The two first discussed official business and then talked about their personal friendship, but they found that the more they talked, the more they got along.

Not only do they share the same values, but they also both like reading and talking about history.

Finally, a few years ago, he was brought back, and my eldest sister-in-law held a banquet to formally marry him and they became a Taoist couple.

of course.

The scenes of the two brothers marrying their Taoist partners were both grand.

All the sects sent valuable gifts, such as Princess Longfu of the Wangshe Palace and Nangong Xing of the Nanliu Sect, who all came in person to see the bride off.

Pan Furong also said.

The two brothers originally insisted on waiting for the eldest brother to return before formally marrying her, but she was the one who made the decision and let the matter be done that year.

After all, Lu Ye’s return time is uncertain. Who knows whether he will come back in a year or a hundred years? Why should the two couples wait in vain?

Lu Ye nodded and said yes.

He didn't even know when he would be able to come back. He could only watch the ups and downs of the long river of time and space. It was really not a good idea to delay other people's good things.

Pan Furong continued.

As for Zhang Cunyi, he was the last to come to his senses, and now he is still hiding in secrecy, and has not brought his sweetheart back.

Pan Furong introduced two girls here.

Shu Chitu and Gui Baozhu hurriedly led their fellow Taoists out to meet their eldest brother.

Lu Ye laughed.

"Good good..."

"My two brothers, I didn't make it to your wedding."

"But this gift cannot be missing."

He waved his sleeves, and two divine treasures flew out and landed in the hands of the two women.

"My two sisters-in-law, this is my gift."

"If they bully you in the future, go find your sister-in-law."

"Besides, with this magic treasure protecting me, I can fight back..."

The second girl took the magic treasure, thanked the eldest brother happily, and was secretly amazed in her heart. After all, he was the number one cultivator and he was generous.

The people in the hall were not yet Divine Transformation cultivators, yet the magical treasures were given to them.

Lu Ye turned around and asked Zhang Cunyi curiously if there was anything wrong with his second brother.
Since you have a lover, why don’t you get married quickly? Why are you dragging it out?
But Zhang Biao disagrees?
Or is the other party's demands too high?
If you have any problems, I will help you solve them.

Zhang Biao, who was standing below, waved his hands hurriedly.

Uncle, you are wronging me. It takes a long time to cultivate immortality. My father has been both my father and mother and has worked hard to raise me since I was a child. How could I interfere in this matter?

Zhang Cunyi was a little shy and whispered that it was nothing.

In fact, we both loved each other, but because the other party was a widow, she felt a little reluctant. She thought that if she married me, people would gossip about her, so the matter was delayed.

Lu Ye laughed.

You are a widower and she is a widow, isn't that perfect?

I'm going to propose marriage today. I missed my fourth and fifth brothers' weddings, so I must drink your wedding wine...

I will be the witness.

What's wrong with the widow?
Being my second brother's woman, who dares to look down on her?
I will take you to marry her in person, and it will be today. The True Saint of Heti is seeking a bride for my sworn brother. This is unique in this world. Who dares to look down on her?

Zhang Cunyi was overjoyed and thanked his elder brother, saying that the girl was in a flowerless valley a thousand miles away from Zhongxiang Island. Her name was Chu Lianhua. She was a very miserable person, as her Taoist partner died in the chaos of demons.

He was in charge of the post-war reconstruction of all forces in the waters of Nakago Island. He had come into contact with them several times and actually fell in love with them at first sight.

Luye waved his hand.

We are all living in troubled times, and neither you nor I are of noble birth.

I was a refugee at the beginning, and you were just a low-ranking military officer from a small town. There is no need for so many rules. As long as we are in love, you can still welcome a widow into your family.

Once Lu Ye makes a decision, he does it.

He directly summoned a large boat, took everyone on board, and flew out of the Void Valley at lightning speed.

The people in the Void Valley still didn't understand what was going on.

A disciple on duty who was waiting outside the hall said that when Lord Zhensheng came out of the hall, he said in high spirits that he wanted to find a woman for his third brother to marry. It was probably that Nakago Island was going to have a wedding.

The cultivators looked at each other in surprise, the True Saint was indeed not an ordinary person.

It was so urgent that those who knew about it thought it was a wedding, while those who didn't thought it was a wedding kidnapping.

The road was wild and the boat traveled thousands of miles in just half a day.

A huge boat stretched across the sky and landed on the Flowerless Valley, a quiet island. Some monks on the island saw the huge boat flying in the sky with people surging inside. They didn't know whether it was an enemy or a friend, so they quickly sounded the alarm and set up a formation.

Lu Ye took out another magical treasure from his sleeve, which was a red dragon umbrella, and handed it to Zhang Cunyi.

Second brother, when you go, take this as a betrothal gift. The red color is also festive.

Zhang Cunyi happily took it, thanked his elder brother, and jumped off the bow of the boat.

He was an acquaintance, so the formation was released to let him in.

After a while.

When the formation was put down, Zhang Cunyi and a beautiful middle-aged woman rose into the air. The beautiful woman shyly greeted her elder brother and his wife, and everyone was very happy.

That night.

Everyone returned to Zhongxiang Island.

Elder Tiegong, Lan Wutong, Fan Buju and others stayed on the island.

When Lu Ye led his men to fly to Wuhua Valley, Wang Zikuan and Zhang Biao were ordered to get off the boat nearby and fly to Zhongxiang Island to notify and prepare.

When the big boat turns to Zhongxiang Island.

The island is already covered in red, and is filled with joy.

That night.

A grand banquet was held on Nakago Island.

The various sect leaders rushed over from the Void Valley and presented valuable gifts.

Everyone was not giving face to Lu Ye alone, but they really had important matters to discuss. No one knew who the person was who destroyed the Lotus Sect. Having such a powerful enemy at their side was like a thorn in their throat that they had to get rid of it before they could feel at ease.

Otherwise, everyone would be trapped in the Void Valley every day, and would be unable to bear it after being paranoid for a long time.

But tonight was obviously not a good time to bring up this topic.

Tonight Zhang Cunyi and Chu Lianhua are a perfect couple, but the protagonist is undoubtedly Lu Ye.

After all the monks toasted the newlyweds, they all toasted Lu Ye, and the latter toast was obviously heavier.

Lu Ye accepted everyone who came and drank happily, obviously very happy.

In this way, the banquet continued until dawn.

Of course. Lu Sheng and Pan Furong left the table together when the moon was at the top of the mountain.

Return to the cave in the high tower.

Lu Ye said anxiously.

"Ma'am, I actually made a big mistake."

"But you know, I can't tell."

"Like some sworn brothers..."

He racked his brains to think of a subtle way to hint at it.

Pan Furong had already pressed a finger on his lips, her eyes filled with tears.

"My husband, you must have suffered a lot in order to achieve the fusion state..."

"As long as you can come back to me, what's wrong with that? You're doing the right thing..."

"It's late, let's go to bed early..."

A pair of soft hands were pulling Lu Ye, who had already fallen on the bed, the gauze curtains were hanging down, the warm moon in the hibiscus tent was shyly hiding the clouds, all of which were beyond words.

The next day.

Outside the cave.

The newlyweds Zhang Cunyi and Chu Lianhua, as well as a group of sect leaders were waiting.

The former was for a toast. Since both of them had no direct elders around, they came directly to their eldest brother and sister-in-law.

The latter was preparing to talk to Lu Sheng about destroying the enemy of the Lotus Sect.

Don’t say no.

At the banquet yesterday, everyone could clearly see that the area below Lu Sheng’s knees had become weak.

At this rate, Lu Sheng didn't know if he could stay for a full day.

Wait for the cave door to open.

Lu Ye and Pan Furong walked out together arm in arm, both of them looking radiant.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. At least Lu Sheng didn't leave without saying goodbye like last time.

Lu Ye first accepted the toast from Zhang Cunyi and Chu Lianhua, and after drinking it, he wished them a long and happy life together with many children and grandchildren.

Even cultivators cannot avoid these festive words, which shows that cultivators, like mortals, want good luck in their words.

As for the various sect leaders.

Lu Ye waved his hand.

Everyone, I can guess what you want to say. Time is running out, so let's say goodbye here. I will get rid of this scourge today.

Goodbye everyone!
He embraced Pan Furong, jumped into the sky, and flew into the air.

Before leaving, Lu Ye thought for a while and said to Pan Furong.

"Madam, the speed of this transformation is very fast."

"I'm afraid that by the time I finish my work, I won't be able to make it back in time, just like last time."

"I have to say something disappointing. I made a big mistake..."

Pan Furong shook his head.

"My dear, don't worry."

"For me, as long as you can come back."

"You can make any mistake..."

"I wish you a smooth journey, my husband," Pan Furong paused, "and a speedy return..."

Lu Ye took a deep breath. With a wife like this, what else could a husband ask for?

"it is good!"

He nodded heavily, used his escape light to fly up into the sky, circled around Zhongxiang Island several times, and then headed straight west.

Lotus Sect of Xihezhou.

Lu Ye wanted to go there in person to see how the family was wiped out.

The combined True Saint hurried on his way at full speed.

That night.

He had already arrived at the former site of the Lotus Sect.

Today, the buildings here are still there, and there are a group of monks inside. Although the plaque of Lotus Sect is still hanging, the cultivation level of these monks is obviously much inferior.

The highest level of cultivation is just that of a Yuanying Great Perfection monk.

Moreover, it is obvious that these monks are divided into several factions, and even the monks' clothing is not unified. Monks wearing the same clothing probably occupy the same hall or courtyard. The only thing that all monks have in common is that they still recognize the Lotus Sect label on their heads.

Lu Ye took a few glances and stopped paying attention to these monks.

They should be the powerful branch temples of the Lotus Sect in Xihezhou. After the main temple was destroyed, they rushed back to steal the property.

Because everyone's strength is about the same, no one can be driven away and no one can monopolize the Lotus Sect, so they can only occupy one courtyard or one hall and fight for a piece of territory.

It seems that the momentum of the various Buddhist factions in Zhongxi Hezhou to seize the main temple will continue until the power of one of them grows greatly and swallows up or expel the other forces.

I don’t know how many years it will take to see this happen. The once super sect Lotus Sect is unlikely to ever regain its former glory.

However, Lu Ye did not care about the rise and fall of the Lotus Sect. He only cared about one thing, which demon tribe wiped out the Lotus Sect?
The dog demon's tracking result was correct. The attacker was indeed a demon, not a celestial demon? Or another race?
With Lu Ye's cultivation level of a True Saint, he came to the Lotus Sect silently, hid his figure, and then used the Void Sword to flash directly into the formation without even triggering the formation's defenses.

All the monks in the temple were unaware that there was one more person in the temple.

He was like an invisible man, wandering around the temple.

Unfortunately, most of the buildings were not destroyed during the massacre, so the new Buddhist forces happened to move in later, and after a few years of living there, the original marks were completely erased.

Lu Ye looked around several places but found nothing, so he didn't hesitate and ran straight to the columbarium in the back mountain.

Fortunately, this was the only place where resistance broke out that year, so the powerful enemy flattened the mountain with one palm, covering an area of ​​about a thousand feet. The ground turned into colored glaze, and the Infinite Vajra fought desperately, leaving behind a circle of Vajra golden light defensive seal traces.

Therefore, no monks fought over this piece of flat land, and it remained almost intact. The surrounding area was desolate. The spiritual plants had been destroyed by the powerful magic power, and the earth's energy had not recovered for several years. Therefore, it was still bare and without any signs of life, in sharp contrast to the lush forests around it.

The rocks on the ground still appeared to be flowing horizontally like colored glass, which was the original appearance of the conflict that night.

Lu Ye fell from the sky, and at a glance he saw a circle of light golden halo mark about ten feet in diameter in the center of the thousand-foot glazed ground. It was the mark left by the defense made by the incarnation monk Wuliang Vajra at the cost of his life.

Unfortunately, the enemy was too strong, so he died on the spot.

Lu Ye sighed softly. He did not have a good impression of this Wuliang Vajra. He wanted to force Buddhism into Dazhongzhou, and at heart he was a domineering and self-centered person.

It was only when he met Lu Ye that he tucked his tail between his legs and retreated back into the Lotus Sect.

The last time we met was when Lu Ye borrowed the teleportation array to go to the Double-Winged Demon Realm. He was flexible in attitude, flexible in waist, and always called everyone "senior". He was a monk who knew how to handle things in a timely manner. I didn't expect that he was gone just like that.

How about putting aside the personal morality of Infinite Vajra?

You know, he was the only cultivator in the human world who had reached the state of Divine Transformation. How could Lu Ye just ignore it when he was killed like that and his death was unclear?

Lu Ye bowed slightly and recited a Taoist scripture to the monk.

You were as hostile as fire and water when you were alive, and I will come to make peace between you after you die. He didn't care whether this monk liked to listen to Taoist scriptures or not if he had a spirit.

The recitation of the scripture is completed.

Lu Ye's face straightened, he looked around and sneered.

"Okay, let me see who you are."

"With one palm, he destroyed the mountain and defeated the infinite Vajra. His domain was expanded, and he plundered the lives and cultivation of all the monks in the temple."

"Why does it look a bit like Mo Baiyi's Hunyuan Devouring Magic Skill?"

"Is it really you, Old Winged Ancestor?"

"But how did you break through from the Refining Void Realm to the Fusion Realm?"

"Before he died, the 100-year-old ancestor reminded me that you have no moral standards and your ideas are even more radical than those of our ancestor, Mo Baiyi, and you tend to go to extremes."

"Is it really you?"

"Let me take a look..."

Lu Ye transformed himself into a demon ape, his eyes glowed with golden light like pillars...
