Seeing that the two would not be able to finish their practice for the time being, Shen Luo put the package by the lake back on his back, then sat cross-legged on the ground, practicing his skills and recovering his magic power.
After half an hour, the gray-robed old man and the genius Bai Xiao stopped at the same time.
Shen Luo was not immersed in his cultivation. When he noticed the situation of the two, he stopped practicing, stood up and stood aside.
Bai Xiaotian's complexion has mostly recovered at this moment, and the strange golden light remaining on his body has disappeared without a trace.
"Third uncle, I just came here to recuperate. Let me introduce you. This is Shen Luo, my fellow junior fellow apprentice of the Chunqiu Temple. Junior fellow Shen, this is my third uncle, also the elder of the Bai family, Bai Jiangfeng." Bai Xiaotian introduced Shen Luo when he saw him coming over.
"Hello, Senior Bai." Shen Luo bowed.
"Young Master Shen is very young, but his cultivation is extraordinary. I saw him from afar just now and it seems that you are proficient in the art of communicating with spirits and controlling demons. You are truly a hero at a young age. Are you a member of the Shen family in Liuhua City?" Bai Jiangfeng raised his hand to support him, looked Shen Luo up and down, and asked with a chuckle.
"Thank you for your compliment, senior. I am from Chunhua County." Shen Luo shook his head and said.
Bai Jiangfeng said "oh" and there was a hint of strangeness in his eyes as he looked at Shen Luo.
"Fortunately, Third Uncle, you arrived in time today, otherwise I would have lost my life." Bai Xiaotian patted his chest, looking still frightened.
"The clan leader received the distress message you sent using the communication array. I happened to be nearby and he immediately asked me to come and rescue you. What's going on?" Bai Jiangfeng asked.
"Communication array?" The golden array that Bai Xiaotian had set up before appeared in Shen Luo's mind, and a flash of realization came into his mind.
"It's a long story..." Bai Xiaotian sighed, and then briefly recounted how the Chunqiu Temple was surrounded, how the two of them escaped by luck, and how they were chased all the way by Gu Hualing.
However, he did not mention anything about the Pure Yang Treasure Book, and changed the reason why Gu Hualing hunted the two people to silencing them, in order to prevent the news of the Chunqiu Temple massacre from leaking out.
When Shen Luo heard this, he lowered his eyes and secretly felt grateful to Bai Xiaotian.
He had the nameless heavenly book in his hand, so he didn't really value the Pure Yang Treasure Book. However, he had made a vow that day to keep it, and it was difficult for him to break the vow.
"What! The Chunqiu Temple was wiped out!" Bai Jiangfeng was shocked after hearing this.
"When I left, there was still fighting in the temple, but the demons are so powerful that I'm afraid no one can escape." Bai Xiaotian said with a gloomy expression.
"Chunqiu Temple is not a small sect. This matter is of great importance. We must inform the head of the family immediately. Let's go back to the Bai family first!" Bai Jiangfeng nodded, grabbed Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian with both hands, and a green light shone from his body. He wrapped the three of them and rushed into the sky, quickly disappearing into the distant sky.
With the support of the elders of the Bai family, Shen Luo and his companion no longer had to worry and rush around every day.
After traveling for several days, the group finally arrived at Jianye City.
Jianye City was built more than a thousand years ago. Since ancient times, it has been an important town on the south bank of the Yangtze River, adjacent to the east coast. It is naturally very different from Chunhua County where Shen Luo grew up.
Looking from afar, one can see the long city wall, the towering city walls, the Tang Dynasty flags flying on the city walls, and the guards in full armor, holding shining spears and halberds.
