Even without cheats, we must survive the apocalypse

……

Feng Yan'er doesn't have much time left. At least before she goes to the Wentian Ancient Battlefield, she has to alleviate the trouble on Anyou Qianyuan's side. It would be better to solve it directly, but that is not very realistic.

There is still a month left before the Thousand Demons Hall calls on all tribes to explore the ancient battlefield of Wentian again. It will take about ten days to reach the Qihuang Great Vein on the edge of the southern region. After negotiating with the Feitian Bi'an tribe, they can rush to the ancient battlefield of Wentian and just make it in time. A few days late will not matter, but Feng Yan'er must have an ally, and a strong enough ally.

Although Lu Mu has the title of Prince of the Holy Phoenix, he cannot always rely on the power of the Lu clan to help Feng Yan'er deal with foreign enemies. If humans interfere in the affairs of the demon clan, it will only cause resentment, and in the end, it will not be of any benefit to Feng Yan'er.

If Fei Tian Bi'an is willing to support her, let alone other forces, at least except for the Thousand Demons Palace, no one will dare to touch Feng Yan'er.

But if they want to do this, they have to rely on Lu Mu to convince them.

Lu Mu brought Feng Yan'er and Murong Xue to the field ten miles away from Qianyuan City and took out a new spirit ship. Then they quickly soared into the clouds and rushed towards the direction of the Qihuang Vein.

Countless eyes were fixed on Qianyuan City. Once Feng Yan'er left, those guys who wanted to sacrifice her blood, take her essence and blood, and seize the demon pill would all come out of the cave upon hearing the news. This was certainly a bit dangerous... However, it also seemed like an opportunity.

Lu Mu felt this was an opportunity.

After two days of flying in the clouds, they were already far away from the territory of Dark Thousand Kite.

At night, Lu Mu stood on the deck of the spirit ship, looking at the crescent moon. Feng Yan'er was beside him, staring at his profile quietly.

"What are you thinking about?"

She suddenly spoke, her voice soft and gentle, like a piece of melting ice, slowly seeping into Lu Mu's bones.

Lu Mu put away his thoughts: "I miss you."

"I?"

"Yeah." Lu Mu took her into his arms. She did not resist and was well-behaved and docile, just like a child.

Perhaps when Feng Yan'er recovers her pre-Nirvana strength and retrieves more memories, her dependence on him, like a child's dependence on its mother, may disappear, or it may not, or it may turn into other more complex emotions.

Lu Mu lowered his head and pressed his hand against her smooth forehead: "I'm thinking about the way you looked when I first saw you."

Feng Yan'er's eyes flickered, and she pouted, "You mean the time when I had just been reborn and had nothing on, and you saw me naked?"

"Yes." Lu Mu smiled, "You at that time were really..."

"Don't mention it." Feng Yan'er lay on his chest obediently, with a strong attachment in her eyes.

She is a little shy.

When Feng Yan'er was still unable to sort out the complicated feelings towards Lu Mu in her mind, they had always maintained their bottom line and would not do anything between men and women.

Suddenly, the two were speechless.

Feng Yan'er had nothing to say, she just wanted to feel some warmth in Lu Mu's arms, while Lu Mu's eyes drifted between the floating clouds and the bright moon, as if he was waiting.

Then, he waited.

Lu Renyou's figure appeared on the deck and saluted him.

"How is it?" Lu Mu asked.

"We caught one, he's at the Fate Wheel Realm, he looks like a lone monster among the monster race."

Lu Renyou raised his hand, and the space beside him split open again, and out rolled a female demon who was bound by spiritual chains and covered with scars.

Chapter 35: Two Choices

Feng Yan'er looked at the female demon who had somehow fallen into Lu Renyou's hands, her eyes dazed for a moment.

She had a pretty face, eyes as fierce as a beast, messy hair of pure blue, and some sharp bird feathers could be seen around her neck and ears. There were many winged monsters, but it was unknown which tribe she belonged to.

Although she was tightly trapped by the spiritual lock, her demonic energy was still heavy enough to tear the floating clouds apart.

"Let me go! Damn human!"

The female demon struggled, her body shaking like a sieve, her face pale. She was seriously injured, but her ferocity did not diminish at all.

Lu Renyou glanced at her indifferently, and with a move of his fingers, the spiritual chain tightened. The dense red threads looked like spider webs and runes, quickly wriggling and entwining, invading her skin. The banshee's throat made a gurgling sound, and her eyeballs bulged. It was obvious that she was in extreme unbearable. But even so, she gritted her teeth and persisted, not begging for mercy.

The Taoist weapon that trapped her was specially used to deal with demons.

Lu Renyou had also used his true qi to seal all the meridians in her body. In short, this great demon in the realm of Creation and Destiny was now a prisoner.

Lu Mu didn't expect that a big fish would be caught so soon... With Lu Renyou traveling with him, Lu Mu naturally didn't worry about any accidents along the way. There were many big monsters who wanted to snatch Feng Yan'er away, but not many of them were stronger than Lu Renyou. To be on the safe side, Lu Mu even called two extra elders to come quickly from the Lu family's territory. Maybe they would catch up with them in two days.

Of course, he had other ideas.

Some of these demons coming for Feng Yan'er might be very stubborn and could only be killed, but some might be able to be persuaded and made to work for Feng Yan'er in some way...

And this blue-haired demon in front of me might be worth a try.

This method was somewhat useless. After all, vassals obtained through coercion and inducement were not trustworthy. However, Lu Mu had made many preparations, including some insurance against betrayal...

"Oh, you are very tough, but what's the use?"

Lu Mu sneered faintly.

"Let me go if you dare! I'll show you what it means to be powerful!"

Hearing the hatred in her words, Lu Renyou raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Mu, asking him whether he wanted to kill her.

Lu Mu shook his head and turned to look at her: "What's your name?"

"Pooh!"

He did not get angry and continued, "Since you were captured by Elder Renyou, I think you must have been following us since we left the Dark Thousand Kite Clan's territory. So, do you want the blood essence of the Nine-winged Holy Phoenix or her demon pill?"

"...Isn't that what you were planning?"

She looked at him coldly, her gaze briefly sweeping over Feng Yan'er, who only responded with cold and arrogant contempt. Feng Yan'er's arrogance made the female demon's eyes move slightly.

Lu Mu smiled and reached out to touch Feng Yan'er's hair. Feng Yan'er took the initiative to stick close to him, but closed her eyes, enjoying the peace and tranquility that his palm conveyed to her.

Seeing this scene, the female demon tied up with chains seemed to be aroused with anger.

Lu Mu narrowed his eyes slightly: "Are you sure you don't want to tell me who you are?"

The blue-haired demon sneered disdainfully: "Who do you think you are? You are just a lowly human. Don't even think about letting me..."

Before she had finished her words, the might of the Holy Phoenix was already pressing down on her. In order to subdue the great demon in the Creation Realm before him, he used all his strength, just as he had done when he was pressing Yuan Qu step by step. The shadow of the phoenix was lingering and majestic.

The female demon finally changed her expression.

Her facial muscles twitched violently for a moment, and the fierceness that had never wavered was mostly eliminated by Lu Mu's Holy Phoenix pressure. Even her voice trembled: "Impossible... Why do you have such pressure? "

Although Lu Mu didn't know which ethnic group these demons came from, they would be attracted by Feng Yan'er's "treasure", and would inevitably be affected by the pressure of the Holy Phoenix.

"What do you say?"

Lu Mu never stopped his pressure on her. He wanted to suppress all her brutality so that he could control her.

"You are definitely not a demon, but..."

The blue-haired demon couldn't believe it. She stared at Lu Mu in surprise and doubt.

"You have never heard of the title of the Holy Phoenix Prince, right?"

Lu Mu's figure had become blurred in her eyes. The heavy feeling of oppression stimulated the wounds on her body, causing constant pain. The silver phoenix shadow danced with him. If she had not wanted to see this scene more clearly, she might have fainted long ago.

"Prince of the Holy Phoenix... heh."

After a long time, her expression became depressed.

But as far as she knew, Feng Yan'er was the only living Nine-Winged Holy Phoenix in the world.

No matter what, if she could feel such blood pressure, then there would be no point in questioning whether he was a demon. She was not stupid and could see that Lu Mu and Feng Yan'er had a close relationship.

It doesn't really matter if humans and demons are close, as long as they are not close to human forces, no one will complain. After all, there are several very important guest officials in the Thousand Demon Hall, and they are humans. Only those few ethnic groups have the idea of ​​killing humans on sight.

We all have to make a living.

"I'll ask you again, for the last time, what's your name?" Lu Mu looked down at her.

"...Hong Ling."

Lu Mu raised his eyebrows slightly, "Which family are you from?"

"Cloud Vulture Tribe."

"What is your status in your tribe?"

"Because I injured the son of the clan leader, I rebelled against the clan and wandered around."

Hongling answered all the questions.

"It looks like you have nowhere to go."

Lu Mu and Feng Yan'er looked at each other. She frowned and could see that his eyes seemed to be asking "do you want her to stay?"...

So she squatted down, looked at Hong Ling, who was almost confused and lost under the pressure of her eyes, and said: "I will give you two choices. Either you work for me and I will not treat you badly in the future, or my prince will kill you directly."

Hongling said nothing, lowered her eyelids, and seemed to be lost in thought.

"Think about it carefully. Of course, my patience is limited."

Lu Mu picked it up and turned to walk into the spirit ship... This ship is quite big, so it is no problem to squeeze a few more people in.

When he came back, Lu Renyou was gone. Only Feng Yan'er was sitting there, fiddling her hands around in a daze. Lu Mu slowly sat down and hugged her as the night gradually darkened.

"what happened?"

"The way she looked at me just now... was like a piece of delicious meat."

Feng Yaner's mood gradually became depressed. She was very proud, as all the demons were like this, but the reality was that she could not earn the respect she deserved because she was not strong enough.

She even has flaws in her memory.

Lu Mu rubbed her head and coaxed her gently: "It's okay, just take your time."

Feng Yan'er shrank even tighter, and the floating clouds passed by as the spirit ship sped by, until Murong Xue forcibly pulled them both back into the cabin.

Everything became much quieter, except for the fact that there was a tied-up guest on the boat.

Chapter 36: Qihuang Great Vein

The following days were quiet.

Lu Renyou also did not catch any more demons like Hongling who attempted to do anything bad to Feng Yaner. Those big demons were more vigilant and stronger than Hongling. They could more or less sense Lu Renyou's presence, so they only dared to follow the edge of Feng Yaner's breath and did not dare to expose themselves too much.

Feng Yan'er would occasionally go to see Hong Ling, but she had almost nothing to say. She just looked at her for a while and then left. Lu Mu also gave her some elixirs to heal her wounds, and slowly wore away the hostility in Hong Ling's body bit by bit... Of course, this kind of big demon that rebelled against the tribe had its ferocity aggravated by this poor mountain and bad land for hundreds of years. Lu Mu did not expect to tame her overnight, so he had to take it slowly.

If Hong Ling was some powerful demon, it would be unlikely for her to work for Feng Yan'er, but she was a demon wandering outside, with no home to go to and no master to rely on. Lu Mu felt that she could probably think it through, it just took more time.

After all, she was so impatient to attack Feng Yan'er and completely disregarded of caution, so her brain probably wasn't very smart.

……

When the spirit ship approached the Qihuang vein, the sky seemed to be torn apart, and the chaotic spiritual energy dispersed the floating clouds, making it seem like chaos.

On the ground, pale mist filled the vast wasteland. The Qijun Mountains stretched endlessly, with strange shapes like winding dragon spines. In the southern region, there were not many lands with calm and peaceful spiritual energy, but places like the Qihuang Great Vein, where the spiritual energy was so chaotic and unstable and the scenery was like a wasteland after doomsday, were also rare.

Even if a weaker demon dares to enter the Qihuang meridian, its body will be damaged by the disordered and restless spiritual energy.

"Haha, I haven't been here for a long time."

Lu Renyou stood on the deck, gazing into the distance with a relaxed look on his face.

"What do you think of the changes here, Elder Renyou?"

Lu Mu had never been here, but Lu Renyou seemed to have deep feelings for this place. He didn't know about Lu Renyou's past, but it was said that he was the most restless elder in the Lu clan. He had traveled around the eight regions more than a dozen times. After all, he had lived a long life and had a free and easy personality, so he always wanted to go around and explore.

Lu Renyou retracted his gaze and replied with a smile: "It's even more chaotic."

"I came here three hundred years ago. I was just a beginner in the world of creation. I came to the South Region just to gain more experience. The forces in this Qihuang Great Vein are complicated and intertwined. There are endless bloody battles between them. The terrain is also quite complex. Some dead places have disordered spiritual energy. Those with weaker strength will die if they enter. There are also many ferocious spirit beasts roaming among the wilderness and mountains. It can be said to be the most chaotic place in these eight regions."

At this time, countless ferocious falcons flew through the air and crashed into the hull of the spirit ship. Those falcons were large in size, with sharp beaks and claws, and when they saw the fresh "raw meat", they pounced on it frantically. Unfortunately, the protective formation on the spirit ship could even withstand the turbulence of space, and it was in vain for these falcons to crash into it with their bodies. Their corpses were smashed to pieces, and the hull of the spirit ship was covered with blurry flesh and blood.

It is indeed a dangerous place.

Lu Mu watched as these falcons finally scattered after losing dozens of their companions, leaving behind a trail of blood floating in the sky.

"We haven't even entered the depths of the Qihuang Great Vein yet, and these fearless beasts have already arrived."

Murong Xue stroked her snow-white hair, her tone was lazy but secretly sharp, and her face was filled with excitement as she was eager to try.

Lu Mu walked closer to her and whispered, "Do you like dangerous places?"
