The ultimate Valkyrie has fallen for me

"Finally, another one taken care of!"

On November 24th, the third day after leaving the city, we successfully hunted down our second Lord-level Armored Bear.

It has to be said that Lu Yuan was quite lucky.

After all, this was under the premise of Zhou Buyi's constant harassment.

After luring the horde of corpses to attack Lu Yuan and his group, Zhou Buyi launched several more attacks, either planting bombs or using the old trick of luring monsters to attack.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan and his team were on guard, and apart from one SUV being damaged, there were no casualties.

However, Zhou Buyi never showed up.

"Consumption?"

Clearly, he intended to use this method to continuously wear down Lu Yuan and his group.

More accurately, it was about consuming Liang Hongyun.

Although they were in a passive position, this was good news for Lu Yuan and his team.

The reason for the advance consumption is that although Zhou Buyi was prepared, he was not entirely confident in killing Liang Hongyun.

The fact that Zhou Buyi's side was weaker than expected was naturally good news.

However, this is not Zhou Buyi's fault. After all, Liang Hongyun is a Seven-Star General, and he is not so easy to kill.

Although Zhou Buyi is also a Seven Star Warrior and has considerable influence in the Star Hall, it is not easy for him to find enough helpers to deal with Liang Hongyun.

Those who lack the ability to help cannot, and those with weak connections are unwilling to take the risk.

"Have you become more perceptive?"

As darkness fell, the convoy stopped again. By the campfire, Lu Yuan looked up and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

After two days of hard work, my mental strength has already broken through the 300 mark.

Unfortunately, no new "superpowers" have emerged.

However, Lu Yuan discovered that his senses had become much sharper.

Previously, they could sense danger and malicious surveillance, but now both of these aspects have been greatly amplified, to the point that Lu Yuan suddenly realized that it seemed as if there was an eye watching them from high above.

It should be a drone, and the latest model at that.

After all, Liang Hongyun had already had the jamming equipment activated, but the drone was clearly unaffected.

"snort."

It was just a vague feeling, and I couldn't pinpoint the exact location. Also, the distance must have been quite high; otherwise, I would have just shot him down with a sniper rifle.

Lu Yuan snorted and stopped thinking about it.

After dinner, Liang Hongyun arranged for the sentries to keep watch at night, and then she and Lu Yuan got back into the car.

Soon, the heavily modified off-road vehicle began to shake rhythmically, as the greater the pressure, the more it needed to release.

It rocked for about two hours before slowly coming to a stop.

It's halftime.

Lu Yuan lay back on the reclined chair, holding Liang Hongyun in his arms, idly kneading her, and casually using his spiritual energy to repair the Tao Te Ching.

His mental energy was quickly exhausted, and after this repair, the Tao Te Ching was finally more than half repaired, with only five thousand flaws and loopholes remaining.

"Huh, what's this!"

Just as Lu Yuan was preparing for the second half of the game tonight and replenishing his mental energy, a thought suddenly struck him.

Tao Te Ching...

One by one, characters resembling runes and shimmering with golden light flew out; these were characters from the Tao Te Ching.

These words landed on Lu Yuan's acupoints, each landing like a refreshing spring or an electric shock, causing Lu Yuan's body to tense up.

"Ugh~!"

Lost in thought, Lu Yuan suddenly had a thought.

Moved.

The seventh martial meridian, which had been dormant for some time, finally began to react under the influence of the Tao Te Ching.

"Very good!"

Realizing this, Lu Yuan let out a low cry and immediately sat up.

"What's wrong?"

Liang Hongyun was almost knocked over by Lu Yuan when she was suddenly thrown over, but luckily she caught him in time and gave him a reproachful look.

"What's good or bad?"

"My seventh martial meridian has activated!"

"The seventh martial meridian? It's activated?"

Liang Hongyun looked at Lu Yuan with surprise on her face.

Liang Hongyun hadn't inquired about Lu Yuan's cultivation progress for some time. After all, cultivation is a gradual process, not something that can be accomplished overnight, so there was no need to ask about it frequently.

When Liang Hongyun saw Lu Yuan fight the Lord-level Armored Bear head-on, she knew that he had exceeded her expectations and his cultivation had progressed rapidly. However, she originally thought that he was only at the fourth or fifth meridian, after all, Lu Yuan had only been a martial artist for a short time.

To everyone's surprise, Lu Yuan had already opened six martial meridians!

Genius, genius among geniuses!

Moreover, the activation of the seventh martial meridian at this moment means that he may have the potential to open the seventh martial meridian!

It should be noted that advancing from the sixth to the seventh stage is the biggest hurdle in the Qi Opening Realm, and Lu Yuan is about to break through it so quickly.

"He's simply a prodigy."

Liang Hongyun smiled, though it was unclear whether she meant something else.

"Hurry and start training, this opportunity won't be missed!"

Before Lu Yuan could think much of it, Liang Hongyun released her grip and urged him on.

Cultivation is like that matter; doing it when you have the feeling often yields twice the results with half the effort.

Lu Yuan has already sensed the unusual movement of the seventh martial meridian. If he cultivates it now, he may very well open it in one fell swoop.

"It just so happens to be this time."

However, the current situation is not very good.

Liang Hongyun frowned slightly, put on her clothes, and sat back in the passenger seat. She was going to protect Lu Yuan.

It's definitely not the right time, but there's nothing we can do about it.

Moreover, if he could break through to the seventh meridian at this time, he would have a better chance of winning the battle against Zhou Buyi later.

"Phew!"

Taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling, Lu Yuan stopped thinking and sat cross-legged, focusing on his cultivation.

Before they knew it, the night had passed, and nothing had happened by dawn.

Zhou Buyi is not made of iron, and he cannot harass people indefinitely.

Let's eat!

A simple meal had been prepared. Liang Hongyun got out of the car, took a portion, and casually said something to everyone.

"Captain, why hasn't Xiao Lu come out?"

Not seeing Lu Yuan get out of the car, someone asked curiously.

But then he was nudged by his companion's elbow, and after a few winks and smirks, the other person was startled, then realized what was happening. The two looked at each other, revealed a mischievous smile, and gave Liang Hongyun a thumbs up.

"Captain! That was awesome!"

"Actually, Xiao Lu is very strong. After all, there are no lands that can't be plowed, only oxen that die from exhaustion."

"That's true, Captain. Xiao Lu is still young. You should take it easy on her. You're being too ungentlemanly."

"Get out of here! What nonsense are you thinking!"

Liang Hongyun cursed a few times at the teasing, but didn't bother to explain.

After breakfast, everyone got on the bus and continued on their journey.

Lu Yuan was still cultivating, but he had moved to the passenger seat, and Liang Hongyun was driving again.

For the rest of the day, Lu Yuan didn't get out of the car and stayed focused on cultivation.

Knowing that it was a crucial moment for him, Liang Hongyun did not disturb him.

"Hopefully, they won't cause trouble at this time!"

At night, Liang Hongyun personally took the night watch. Looking at the dark wilderness, she muttered to herself with a gloomy expression.

Awooo~!

In the middle of the night, a wolf howled, and the next moment, pairs of bright green eyes appeared in the distance, like emeralds set in a black curtain.

"team leader!"

The others, startled, have gotten out of their vehicles and are ready for battle.

"No animal is allowed near my car!"

Liang Hongyun stood up, glanced at Lu Yuanzai's SUV, and said in a deep voice.
