"Um?"

As soon as he stepped out of the Shen family's house, Lu Yuan couldn't help but frown.

There are a few more.

Since Lu Yuan returned, there have been spies stationed around the Shen family to monitor his movements.

Lu Yuan ignored this.

Although the Ye family's experience serves as a cautionary tale, it is clear that the major powers in the city will not give up this lucrative opportunity so easily.

Even if there's no chance to take a bite right now, at least we should keep track of his movements.

In fact, Lu Yuan suspected that besides the seven major martial arts groups, there might even be government officials involved.

The main reason is that he's too much of a troublemaker, so the authorities have to pay extra attention to him.

Let them keep watching; if they don't let them keep an eye on them, they'll feel uneasy. So, under normal circumstances, Lu Yuan ignores them.

But today, there were a few more gazes.

Compared to the previous ones, these gazes were much more 'tense,' suggesting that it wasn't just about monitoring his movements.

"snort."

Lu Yuan snorted lightly, ignoring it as if he hadn't noticed anything.

These people must have some purpose. Rather than alerting them, it's better to let them reveal themselves.

As planned, Lu Yuan went to the Starry Sky Building and met Lu Diaolong.

He wants to expand the Eight Trigrams Formation at the base, and he needs Lu Diaolong's help to build more formation bases.

In addition, Lu Yuan also hoped that Lu Diaolong could help him build some space equipment to transport coal to the base city. This way, he wouldn't have to send out a convoy every time, wasting so much manpower.

Using space equipment to transport coal is such a luxurious idea; only Lu Yuan could come up with it.

Then Lu Yuan went to see Lin Xiangjun to discuss whether there were any other ways besides condensing a pseudo-core, and what kind of potion to refine to help break through to the seventh star core.

Unfortunately, the two discussed it until late at night, but still made no progress.

This last bottleneck is indeed extremely difficult.

"That's interesting."

As Lu Yuan emerged from Lin Xiangjun's lab, looking at the reappearing surveillance gazes, he couldn't help but smile.

In the afternoon, when he arrived at Lin Xiangjun's laboratory, all the surveillance disappeared, as if it had been pre-arranged.

It seems that Lin Xiangjun is indeed someone of great importance, to the point that all forces in Chongming Base City hold her in high esteem.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan felt secretly pleased with himself.

As long as he still has the perfect version of the Qi and Blood Enhancement Potion formula, he can hold onto Lin Xiangjun's strong leg, which is equivalent to holding a trump card that can be used to launch a counterattack at any time.

From then on, Lu Yuan spent most of his time cultivating, occasionally going out to handle some matters.

Days passed by like this, and soon it was December, the end of another year.

Unlike in the past, now that he has officially become the son-in-law of the Shen family, he can represent the fourth branch of the family in this year's martial arts competition.

Lu Yuan was quite looking forward to it.

After all, what could be more satisfying than standing up for your wife at her parents' house?

Ding~!

Late at night, Lu Yuan was still cultivating when his phone suddenly received a message.

Who could it be so late at night? Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Liu Yanyan.

After rescuing Liu Yanyan, just as Lu Yuan had expected, Liu Yanyan was very strong and recovered quickly. There hadn't been any news lately, so why was she suddenly texting him so late tonight?

He casually clicked on it and saw a photo. When he saw it clearly, Lu Yuan's face instantly turned cold.

In the photo, Liu Yanyan is tied to a wooden stake in an open space, surrounded by a group of hungry zombies. If it weren't for the ropes binding her, the zombies would probably have devoured her long ago.

Clearly, Liu Yanyan had been kidnapped again. Lu Yuan remembered that this should be the third time.

Besides the incident a few days ago, there was also the previous kidnapping of so-called Lu Yuan's women by Shen Fengxing, including Liu Yanyan.

It has to be said that Liu Yanyan was indeed bound to the Holy Body.

I just don't know who's behind this.

In addition to the photo, the information also included coordinates outside the city.

"Oh."

Upon seeing these coordinates, Lu Yuan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

What a familiar tactic.

Could it be that they are from the same lineage?

Lu Yuan couldn't help but glance at the distance.

There's been no movement.

If we go directly to their door now without evidence, we might be falsely accused.

Lu Yuan stood up, and the next moment he transformed into a streak of red light, heading straight out of the city.

Once he catches a few alive, he'll have evidence.

Perhaps he won't even have to wait until the end of the year; he can teach those two families a lesson now.

Entering and leaving the base city requires special procedures, but since mastering the Blood Shadow Escape, Lu Yuan has voluntarily 'exempted' from inspection.

Using the speed of Blood Shadow Escape, he easily leaped over three high-level obstacles, and the garrison's radar only made one sound before falling silent.

The garrison seems to have gotten used to this.

In fact, after the first anomaly, they conducted an investigation and quickly traced it back to Lu Yuan.

But Lu Yuan doesn't admit it, and they have no concrete evidence, so what can they do? They can only give him a verbal warning; whether Lu Yuan listens or not is beyond their control.

It turned out that Lu Yuan hadn't listened.

After leaving the city, just a few minutes later, we arrived at the location mentioned in the information.

This place isn't very close to the base city, mainly because Lu Yuan is too fast.

After all, it only took him an hour to get from the base city to the Northern Wilderness base.

Perhaps Lu Yuan arrived too early, and the other party might not be ready yet.

Apart from Liu Yanyan, who was tied up to the side, a group of martial artists had already set up camp to rest, with only one martial artist on guard duty.

After all, according to normal estimates, it would take Lu Yuan at least a day or two to get here after receiving the news.

"What the hell?"

Lu Yuan frowned slightly; this was far too amateurish.

Since we're going to deal with him, we should at least figure out his strength. The fact that he can use Blood Shadow Escape without taking any damage is no secret among the major powers.

How could the second and third wives not know?

Moreover, the staffing is far too meager.

Apart from the two five-star warriors, the rest were just ordinary martial artists at the Qi Opening Realm.

Lu Yuan suddenly felt insulted that they had only prepared so few people to deal with him.

do not care.

Lu Yuan went straight to Liu Yanyan and helped her untie the ropes first.

"Huh? Who's there!"

Just then, the man on lookout finally saw him, paused for a moment, and then shouted loudly.

"Someone's here! Someone's here! Get up! He's here!"

"..."

Lu Yuan was speechless again. What nonsense was this? It was utterly incoherent.

However, this shout did wake up everyone else.

Although Lu Yuan looked down on these people, they were all martial artists after all, and since they were in the wilderness, they were still quite vigilant.

They had just been woken up and thought it was a monster attack at night, but when they suddenly saw Lu Yuan standing there, they were all stunned after recognizing him.

How did we arrive so quickly?

"you?"

Looking at Liu Liang in the crowd, Lu Yuan was also taken aback.

Isn't it supposed to be a two-bedroom or three-bedroom apartment? Why is it this one?

Could it be that this kid is the one who's going to deal with him?

Lu Yuan chuckled. That's more like it. No wonder it's so amateurish.
