Chapter 726 Ji Qiuyu's Little Thoughts

The thought that if Lu Chen stayed in Black Moon City, Black Moon City would no longer have to fear the demonic tide, made the soldiers of Black Moon City's eyes light up, as if they wished they could lock Lu Chen up.

Ji Qiuyu had the same thought at this moment. This was the first time she had encountered such a situation since becoming the city lord of Black Moon City.

One person guarding one city, it's clear that Lu Chen is the nemesis of monsters. Although it's unclear why he is able to subdue monsters, as long as he stays, the future monster tides won't be so difficult to deal with.

After seeing that the demons were not moving, Lu Chen turned to look at Ji Qiuyu. Seeing that Ji Qiuyu's beautiful eyes were fixed on him, Lu Chen smiled slightly.

He then used the system to check Ji Qiuyu's favorability rating, which had reached eighty.

It has to be said that the "hero saves the damsel in distress" tactic is indeed very effective for most girls.

After regaining her senses, Ji Qiuyu immediately came to Lu Chen's side. "Fellow Daoist Lu is truly amazing. You repelled the demonic tide so easily."

Lu Chen laughed and said, "I didn't expect these demons to be so weak. I thought I was going to die here today."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, Ji Qiuyu's eyelids twitched slightly.

So weak?

Lu Chen actually thought these demons were weak?

Well, to him, these monsters were indeed not very strong. He could kill hundreds of thousands of monsters with a single sword move. The strength of the monsters was indeed no match for him.

Ji Qiuyu said, "I'm a little curious, what sword technique did Fellow Daoist Lu use? How was he able to eliminate the demon so easily?"

Lu Chen said, "This is a sword technique passed down from my sect, and I cannot tell outsiders about it."

Ji Qiuyu felt a little regretful. She thought that if Lu Chen's sword technique could be passed on to others, wouldn't it be much easier to deal with demons in the future?

However, she also understood that sect techniques were generally not passed on to outsiders. Moreover, given the immense destructive power of Lu Chen's sword technique against demons, its value was self-evident, and Lu Chen was even less likely to take it out so easily.

However, she did not intend to give up so easily. This sword technique was of great use to them. She was already thinking about whether to use some means to trick Lu Chen into giving her this sword technique. However, what Ji Qiuyu did not know was that Lu Chen was able to easily eliminate demons mainly because of the Demon Burial Technique, not the sword technique.

Lu Chen's Frost Eighth Level Sword is a Heaven-Rank sword technique. Although its power is indeed very great, without the assistance of the Demon Burial Technique, the sword energy that Lu Chen unleashed could not have caused such great damage to the demons.

Just as Ji Qiuyu was about to say something more, a general came up to her and said, "Lord, General Bai has escaped."

Upon hearing this, Ji Qiuyu realized that she hadn't seen Bai Wenbin since the beginning of the session.

Ji Qiuyu then asked, "When did he leave?"

The general replied, "General Bai left when the second wave of demonic tide appeared."

Ji Qiuyu didn't care too much. She hadn't expected anything from Bai Wenbin anyway, and she knew exactly what kind of person he was.

Ji Qiuyu said calmly, "If they ran away, they ran away."

At this point, Ji Qiuyu glanced at the soldiers Bai Wenbin had left behind. Although Bai Wenbin had escaped, the soldiers he brought were still on the front lines, which could be considered a contribution.

at the same time.

Bai Wenbin was on the deck of the flying boat, gazing at the distant Demon-Sealing Forbidden Land. Seeing the soaring demonic energy growing thicker and thicker, Bai Wenbin felt a lingering fear in his heart. He couldn't help but think that Black Moon City had probably already fallen.

Just then, a flying boat flew in from a distance. The person piloting the flying boat was his subordinate. He had fled in such a hurry that he had abandoned all his men.

Soon, a man flew over from the opposite airship and said to Bai Wenbin, "Commander Bai, good news!"

Bai Wenbin was stunned for a moment after hearing his subordinate's words.

good news?

What good news could there be at this point?

Bai Wenbin then asked, "What good news?"

The subordinate replied, "The demonic tide crisis in Black Moon City has been resolved; those demons have all retreated to the Demon-Sealing Forbidden Zone."

Ok?

Upon hearing this, Bai Wenbin was completely stunned.

The crisis was resolved just like that?

So fast?

Shouldn't it be that Black Moon City was overrun by monsters?

What happened?

Bai Wenbin then asked, "Those monsters didn't attack?"

The subordinate replied, "No, it's all thanks to the rogue cultivator that Lord Ji invited. That rogue cultivator is incredibly powerful; he killed hundreds of thousands of demons with just one sword strike. The remaining demons were all frightened away by him and retreated back into the Demon Sealing Forbidden Land."

This……

Bai Wenbin was stunned again.

He then asked again, "Is the rogue cultivator you mentioned the one named Lu Chen, the Creation Realm cultivator?"

The subordinate said, "I don't know his name, but he should be the man the commander mentioned. He spoke with the commander earlier."

Bai Wenbin frowned. He clearly sensed that the rogue cultivator named Lu Chen was only at the Creation Realm level, so how could he be so strong?

Could it be that he was hiding his true strength?

Bai Wenbin continued, "Tell me the details of what happened."

His subordinates then told Bai Wenbin what had just happened in Black Moon City. After listening to his subordinates' report, Bai Wenbin fell into deep thought.

Why did he feel that Lu Chen seemed to have a special technique for dealing with demons?

Otherwise, how could he have killed those demons so easily?

If I could obtain the cultivation technique he possessed…

Thinking of this, Bai Wenbin's lips curled into a slight smile. He then said to the soldier controlling the airship, "Return to Black Moon City immediately!"

At this moment, Ji Qiuyu was still trying to get close to Lu Chen in order to obtain the sword techniques from him, so she could no longer treat Lu Chen the same way as before.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, didn't you say you were a rogue cultivator? How come you also have a sect? Your sect possesses such powerful swordsmanship; it must be a formidable force?"

Lu Chen replied with a smile, "My sect was not powerful and disappeared long ago. I am the last person in my sect, so I always say that I am a rogue cultivator."

Ji Qiuyu said, "I see."

Ji Qiuyu continued, "Where does Fellow Daoist Lu plan to go next?"

Lu Chen said, "I haven't decided yet."

Ji Qiuyu said, "Then why don't you stay, Fellow Daoist Lu? If you stay in Black Moon City, Black Moon City will never have to fear the demonic tide again."

"I will report Fellow Daoist Lu's achievements to the Great Chu Dynasty and ask the court to grant him the title of Deputy City Lord. What do you think, Fellow Daoist Lu?"

Only by keeping Lu Chen alive would she have a chance to obtain the sword technique from him that could slay demons.

Hearing Ji Qiuyu's words, Lu Chen smiled slightly and then said, "Alright, I'll stay in Black Moon City for now."

Seeing that Lu Chen agreed, Ji Qiuyu was excited. She immediately said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, rest assured, your achievements will soon reach His Majesty's ears, and His Majesty will surely reward you handsomely."

Just as Ji Qiuyu finished speaking, a man's voice came from afar, "Merit? It may not be merit. Since Fellow Daoist Lu is so powerful, why didn't you act sooner? You caused Black Moon City and this commander to lose so many soldiers. Can this be considered merit?"
