Chapter 676: Return Trip

flanked from the side.Lu Xiaoteng saw the azure flying sword and Ye Ziyu's ethereal flying sword rolling in the air, fighting fiercely. At the same time, Ye Ziyu still had the strength to deal with th...Lu Xia Tian left the secret cave under the rule of water with ease, arriving at a small wooden house on the swampy ground. He flew above the swamp at incredible speed, just as he had when he came. In the muddy swamp, countless demonic mud frogs and demonic flies swarmed in a black cloud. Lu Xia Tian let out a sneer and took out several sections of Hu Mang vine from within his protective barrier. Since his cultivation, he had entered the Golden Core stage many years ago and had roamed through places like the Moon Viewing Immortal Realm, Blue Demon Sea Region, Wushang City, and more. His protective barrier contained a variety of spiritual herbs, some common and even rare ones. If it weren't for the existence of these treasures within his barrier, Lu Xia Tian wouldn't have risked returning alone.

His body flashed several times, and he had already crossed the sky above the swamp. He hurried back to Wushang City along the way he came. Lu Xia Tian's speed was extremely fast, even ordinary cultivators at the early or mid-stage of the Golden Core realm couldn't keep up with him.

Along the way, Lu Xiaoteng relied on his divine sense, which was stronger than that of ordinary Jindan cultivators, to avoid danger in advance. However, the Black Heaven Mountains were much denser with demon beasts than the former Moon Watching Mountains. Waves of auras, strong and weak, constantly approached, and there were also cultivators appearing. Lu Xiaoteng encountered other demon beasts or cultivators several times. In most cases, he directly shook them off with his own speed. Occasionally, some chased him relentlessly. Once angered, Lu Xiaoteng even killed a few of them.

Having passed through Xueshi Mountain, the journey by air wasn't even a few thousand miles. A fierce battle and huge fluctuations of magical energy rose and fell one after another. Lu Xia Tian frowned. There were quite a few cultivators at the Jindan stage who practiced the Fangdou Method. Additionally, there were several groups watching the excitement scattered in different areas. Even if he wanted to hide, it would be difficult to avoid them easily.

Whoever blocks, will be killed. Lu Xia Tian was about to leave when he suddenly felt two approaching auras, one of which carried a fluctuation of magical power that was extremely familiar to him.

Lu Xia Tian was surprised to see a graceful woman retreating hastily towards him. It was Cao Xier, the daughter of General Zhenwei Hou. At this time, Cao Xier held a bright green long sword in her hand, and several pieces of her clothing had already been torn. A patch of snow-white skin was exposed on her back. At this moment, Cao Xier had already become a Jindan cultivator, but her breath was not yet stable, apparently she had just formed her core recently. It seemed that during the time he left Zhenwei Houfu, many things had happened to her.

But the man chasing Cao Xi'er from behind was also an acquaintance of his, the Silver Orchid Bandit who had once been injured by him.

“Little beauty, don't even try to escape. Any woman the big boss sets his eyes on will have nowhere to run.” Yinlan Big Thief slashed repeatedly at Cao Xier with a soft sword in his hand.

"Despicable, vile, my father will not let you get away with this."

Cao Xier tried with all her might to pry open the silver orchid bandit, who clung to her like a bone. However, the Silver Orchid Bandit had been famous for many years and was a top performer even in the middle stage of Jindan. Even when facing some late-stage Jindan cultivators, he had the capital to fight. Let alone Cao Xier, who was just a female cultivator who had just formed her core. Although her cultivation level had reached the early stage of Jindan, she hadn't gone through a certain amount of precipitation, and her realm wasn't solid yet. For the Silver Orchid Bandit, Cao Xier was only slightly more troublesome than those foundation-building cultivators.

“Your father, Cao Sheng, that fat pig, is now in danger himself. You think I came unprepared to this mess Little girl, I advise you to surrender obediently and save yourself from more suffering. Don't worry, I will certainly treat you kindly later.” The Silver Orchid Bandit let out a lascivious laugh.

"You're dreaming," Cao Xi'er said, her face pale with anger. She immediately lashed out at the Silver Orchid Bandit with a flurry of sword strikes, but each one was effortlessly dodged by the bandit. The gap in their skill levels was too vast; with a casual flick of his sword, the Silver Orchid Bandit sliced off a palm-sized piece of cloth from Cao Xi'er's clothing. As he gazed at Cao Xi'er's snow-white skin, a gleam appeared in the Silver Orchid Bandit's eyes. However, this cat-and-mouse game seemed to be endlessly entertaining for him; otherwise, given his abilities, Cao Xi'er would likely be stripped bare by now.

Some nearby cultivators, seeing Cao Xier's beauty, were also moved. They thought to themselves that this "Silver Orchid" bandit leader had some peculiar tastes, directly pouncing on her after resolving the matter. After all, they had already dealt with Cao Xier, why bother playing around like this However, these people didn't have the guts to ruin the "Silver Orchid" bandit leader's good deed. After all, the people accompanying him this time were not simple. Especially the leading ghost cultivator, whose reputation was notorious; he had slain dozens of Golden Core cultivators, including several well-known late-stage Golden Core experts.

“Silver Orchid Thief, I must skin you alive!” In another part of the forest, Cao Sheng roared with fury. He wanted to charge over, but with a deafening roar, a large number of spirit trees and rocks collapsed suddenly.

“Cao Sheng, you should still be concerned about your own situation. In a word, hand over the things, and I will let you go. Otherwise, when your daughter and several other subordinates have something happen, it will be too late to regret.”

A sinister voice sounded, and Cao Sheng failed to appear before Cao Xier. It was clear that he had been stopped by someone else.

Lu Xia Tian was taken aback. It seemed like everyone he met today were acquaintances. The corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily, and he secretly sighed that the world was indeed small. Since it was a matter concerning the Cao family, he couldn't just ignore it. Lu Xia Tian took a light step forward.

"Baby, aren't you going to submit"

The Silver Orchid Thief split Cao Xi'er's long sword in two. Taking advantage of the opening created by Cao Xi'er's flailing blade, he reached out and grabbed at her towering chest.

Cao Xi'er was filled with grief and anger, but despite her skills, she had no way to fight back. At that moment, even if it meant sacrificing herself, she would never allow the bandit to succeed. Such thoughts flashed through Cao Xi'er's mind when suddenly the Silver Lan Bandit's hand reached out, a powerful gust of wind blowing as his massive palm caught hold of her hair, causing strands of silver thread to fly wildly about.

A familiar figure flashed before my eyes, was this...

The Silver Orchid Thief felt a tingling sensation in his heart. Thinking of Cao Xier's soft, towering figure soon to be held in his palm made him feel intensely hot. Just as he was about to react, another figure appeared before his eyes.

Bang! A fist struck with the force of thunder. An unstoppable power surged from the palm, causing Silver Orchid Bandit's fingers to ache as if they would break. However, he was no slouch in reflexes. Terrified, he frantically retreated while shouting, "Who are you, dare to interrupt my business Even General Cao Sheng is..."

“Too much chatter.” Lu Xia Tian coldly snorted, the Silver Orchid Thief’s speed was fast, but could it compare to him Over the years, this Silver Orchid Thief's strength had indeed improved compared to before, but in his eyes, it wasn't enough.

This is a simple translation.

Lu Xiaitian's right foot stomped on the ground, and he rushed towards the Silver Orchid Thief like a rabbit.
