The dark and surging terrifying robbery cloud continued to spread and diffuse in the sky, and quickly covered the mountain range in the east, covering the just exposed fish belly white.
On this side of the mountain range, it suddenly fell into the dark night again.
Lu Heng looked at Xiao Ai in front of him and said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go back to Green Bamboo Garden for New Year's Eve dinner."
Xiao Ai stared blankly at the Jieyun rising in the distance, and then at the smiling wolf god in front of her. She was stunned for a while, and her eyes gradually turned red.
Then, under Lu Heng's smiling gaze, the little girl with silver-haired animal ears sniffed with red eyes, and nodded heavily with a crying voice.
"Um!"
The two figures, one big and one small, just walked away from the flying snow.
The unconscious boy who was lifted upside down in Lu Heng's hands was ignored and ignored again...
…
…
In the Arctic Heavenly Cabinet Palace, the demons who had just finished the dinner party were leaving the venue one after another.
At the New Year's Eve dinner last night, all those who were eligible to participate were the great demons from the north, and it was very lively.
After all, the Lord of Jiufeng Palace overwhelmed Tianbei, and no one in the world dared not give face, and it was a huge honor to be able to come to her dinner party.
The kind that can go back and blow for a lifetime.
Therefore, although the banquet was dispersed, the demons still did not leave, but laughed and chatted with familiar friends and new friends scattered in the banquet palace.
The atmosphere is still lively.
But as the host of the banquet, Jiufeng had already left this bustling and lively place and came to the clean palace.
And summoned the confidant who came in an emergency, her most important maid, the evil cultivator.
In the magnificent palace, the original Jiufeng was soaked in the warm white spiritual spring, and the huge figure appeared and disappeared in the dense mist.
The daughter-in-law knelt down respectfully and said, "I have seen the palace master, but I don't know what the palace master is calling?"
Having followed the Palace Master for thousands of years, she clearly knew the character of the Palace Master.
Now that there is no one in the palace, and all the servants have been withdrawn, there must be something extremely important to explain to her.
In the huge spiritual spring, there was a sound of rushing water. A huge shadow emerged from the water, making a lazy female voice.
"Don't be nervous. It's just a small matter to call you here. It's just a matter of sending you something to the south."
"It's just that someone else gave it to me. I'm not worried, so I have to let you deliver it."
Jiufeng's lazy voice made the daughter-in-law startled, and she said in confusion, "I don't know what the palace lord asked Ao to send?"
"It doesn't matter what you send, you can just pick one from the treasure trove. The important thing is the person who sent it... Well, in the Huotong Kingdom to the south, there is a deity named Lu Heng, who has become famous recently."
"You pick a good treasure from the treasure house and send it to Hanyu Mountain in person to form a good relationship."
"I'm late this time, but starting from this year, every year before New Year's Eve, I have to send a gift to Hanyu Mountain. No delay is allowed... Remember?"
Jiufeng's order made the niece a little stunned.
If it was an ordinary evil cultivator, he would have been ordered to leave at this time. But after all, the niece has followed the palace master for many years, so she couldn't help asking: "But the palace master, the wolf god of Hanyu Mountain is the leader of the righteous way. It is said that killing demons is like Ma, and it is incompatible with evil sects such as me. We come to the door to give gifts... Really yes Does it make sense?"
The daughter-in-law's worry made Jiufeng laugh.
In the Lingquan, the sound of rushing water sounded again, Jiufeng smiled and said: "It is precisely because the cold feather mountain wolf god is famous, so I asked you to send it."
"If someone else goes to send it, I'm afraid it will be difficult to come back alive. If you go, at least you can run away... I mean, you understand?"

In the bedroom, the expression on the girl's face was a little confused.
Although following the Palace Master for so many years, the Palace Master occasionally issues all strange orders. But the order given this time is what puzzled the niece the most.
She knelt awkwardly outside the Lingquan, bowed her head in shame, and said, "Back to the palace lord, the daughter-in-law doesn't understand the deep meaning of the palace lord..."
As the most trusted maid of the Palace Master, but not being able to understand the Palace Master's intentions, for her, it is a great dereliction of duty.
Jiufeng in Lingquan said lazily: "Actually, it's very simple, and it doesn't mean much. It's just that you send a gift every year before New Year's Eve, so that Lu Heng from Hanyu Mountain knows that we have no ill intentions towards him, and we have a good relationship."
"As for anything else, we don't expect it either."
"In addition, the order goes on. From today onwards, all the demons under the gate of my Arctic Tianku Palace, regardless of their status or the strength of their cultivation base, will all retreat when they see practitioners under the gate of Hanyu Mountain outside, and they are not allowed to conflict with them."
"If anyone disobeys, the entire clan will be wiped out!"
Jiufeng put it lightly and gave a terrifying order.
The niece who heard this order was even more stunned and couldn't help saying: "Palace Master! Although the rumors about the wolf god of Hanyu Mountain are terrible, our Tianku Palace is no worse than him! Why should you back down in front of his disciples? If the matter spreads out, your prestige, Palace Master, will be greatly damaged!"
The niece was so anxious that she felt that the palace lord's order this time was really outrageous.
If this order is spread out, what will the people of the world think of the North Pole Heavenly Cabinet Palace and the Palace Master? Everyone would say that Jiufeng of the Arctic Tianku Palace is afraid of Lu Heng of Hanyu Mountain!
The niece was extremely anxious, but Jiufeng in Lingquan stretched lazily and said, "You still don't understand..."
"Although fame and fortune are good things, you should hold them when you should. But if you can't hold them, you shouldn't be attached."
"Compared to life and death, a little criticism from the outside world is a trivial matter."
"Although Lu Heng of Hanyu Mountain is rumored to be mysterious and upright, but he is not really a righteous person."
"In his hand, he holds two world-destroying nine cauldrons, and he doesn't know how many living creatures he harvested in the ancient years. He is a complete world-destroyer, and it is much more terrifying than the so-called demon heretics."
"Don't look at you demons who cannibalize people and cultivate their fierce reputations. When you mention the right way, you all grit your teeth. But compared with him, a world destroyer like him who kills and harvests everything, regardless of whether it is good or evil, strong or weak, you are too naive. Like a child's thing."
"In the cataclysm of the world, when the world destroyer takes action to harvest, he will kill hundreds of millions of living beings at every turn. Once the nine cauldrons are out, they will never return empty-handed. It's not a joke."
"My Arctic Heavenly Cabinet Palace wants to continue, and you little cubs want to happily continue to roam in this piece of land in the north, so you must not provoke the world destroyer of Hanyu Mountain."
"Although his identity is sensitive and won't be exposed easily, otherwise the Palace of the King will definitely find trouble with him first. But don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case."
"Judging from my contact with him in the different dimension, this guy is narrow-minded and extremely short-sighted. He is a downright smiling tiger, very terrifying."
"It doesn't matter to me if I really meet him, but I can't protect you little cubs. So you have to live, don't provoke this disciple of Han Yushan, and you can't provoke this world destroyer surnamed Lu. ."
"If you meet outside, you can only live happily if you stay far away. Send some gifts every year to express your kindness, and tell him not to stare at us and make trouble, so that the North Pole Palace will be safe, you little cubs. It's safe... understand?"
Jiufeng's lazy words made the woman look dull.
"The Nine Cauldrons of Destruction... The Destroyer of the World..."
As the palace lord's confidant maid, she had the honor to hear some ancient secrets from the palace lord, and naturally knew the meaning of these words.
Therefore, the niece understood the palace master's order, and she was no longer dissatisfied.
Because if the land wolf god of Hanyu Mountain is such a terrifying existence, it would not be a shame to let him in the North Pole Heavenly Cabinet Palace.
It's just such a terrifying existence, but it can change its face after the catastrophe in the world, walk the world disguised as a master of the righteous way, and make the world admire the righteous way, fear the devil, and disguise it so delicately... No wonder the palace master thinks this person is extremely dangerous.
It's no wonder that the palace lord will name her to give gifts.
After all, she, who practiced special evil methods, should be the only person in the Tianku Palace who would not attract the thunder when she went to Hanyu Mountain to give gifts.
It's just that the palace master made the Hanyu Mountain wolf god so terrifying, even a well-informed concubine could not help but feel a little nervous at this time.
To give a gift to such a terrifying world destroyer, and to go there once a year... It's a daunting errand.
In the heart of the bridesmaid, she sighed and worried.
And Lu Heng, who was feared by her, had already embarked on the road of returning home in the south.
After Sun Yan was rescued, Lu Heng was finally free from mundane affairs and could practice with peace of mind.
And what he had experienced in the alien space before made Lu Heng more determined to practice hard.
Originally, he practiced in a relaxed and relaxed state of mind. If you can cultivate to the highest level, you won't be in a hurry if you can't, so you seem very lazy.
But now Lu Heng can no longer be lazy.
His determination and goal have never been so clear for a moment, that is, to practice until the entire Yunhai Tiangong can appear in the world, and then go to the so-called Tianwaitian to find Sister Yuanjun.
In Lu Heng's heart, there are 10,000 questions and curiosity that he wants to know.
And these questions can basically only be answered by Sister Yuanjun.
Of course, Candle Dragon may also be able to answer part of it. But there are still two years before the ten-year appointment. Even though Lu Heng was so eager to find Zhulong for questioning immediately, he had to obediently go home and practice silently.
On the way back, Xiao Ai suddenly mentioned something.
"Lord Wolf God, I want to take in and train some practitioners to protect Hanyu Mountain."
When the little girl with silver-haired beast ears mentioned this matter, her expression was solemn: "Sun Yan, Gu Yan and their cultivation bases are too low, if there is another invasion of the enemy from the innate realm, Xiao Ai wants to solve it by himself, and does not want to be like this time. , I'm sorry, Lord Wolf God, you are running around."
The little girl's face was full of remorse.
Obviously, she felt that she was not strong enough to be the reason why Lu Heng ran outside for more than half a year.
When Lu Heng saw her lost expression, he smiled and said, "It's okay if you want to take in and train practitioners, but you can't disturb the purity of Hanyu Mountain."
"Besides, it is a troublesome thing to start a school and teach disciples. You must be cautious when testing the xinxing of beginners. Don't teach a group of white-eyed wolves who fall into the devil's way after successful practice."
"It's second to waste your hard work. It's not good for those disciples to use the skills learned by Han Yushan to do bad things outside, kill people and set fires."

"But you have a good idea."
"As the fame of Hanyu Mountain grows, we will have more and more enemies on the evil way. Like this incident where the demon attacked the mountain gate while I was not in Hanyu Mountain, it will definitely happen in the future."
"For example, the demons in the North Pole Heavenly Cabinet Palace may not be willing to swallow their anger after the incident this time. Maybe they are already discussing how to attack Hanyu Mountain."
"Although the friends of the Li nationality from the Assault Department are powerful, they have also guarded Hanyu Mountain for many years. But they can't live in Hanyu Mountain all the time."
"According to the custom of the Li people, in a year or two, they will move to the next anchor point."
"After they leave, the safety of Hanyu Mountain can only depend on us. So it is indeed a good idea to recruit some disciples and strengthen our own strength."
"Anyway, if you want to do it, then do it."
"Although the "Dao Jing" cannot be taught casually, I have a "Sacred Gong" here that is also a top practice method. You can recruit some mortals or practitioners with good character and morality to get started, and teach them the "Sacred Gong"."
"Although you haven't reached Xiantian now, your strength is considered powerful under Xiantian. With you in charge, I am very relieved."
Lu Heng smiled and encouraged Xiao Ai's idea, and supported Xiao Ai's actions, and planned to sponsor a top-level exercise from ancient times to give Xiao Ai start-up funds.
He did not tell Xiao Ai that after accepting the disciples, although he could rely on the disciples to protect the mountain gate, he also had to shoulder the pressure of protecting and educating these disciples.
If Xiao Ai really established a sect and accepted disciples, and the person who chased after his disciples was captured and rescued, it would probably not be Lu Heng, but Xiao Ai herself...
It's just that Lu Heng didn't give Xiao Ai this cold water.
Because he was happy to see that the little girl had her own life path to follow.
Since being resurrected by Lu Heng, Xiao Ai has always been by Lu Heng's side, almost becoming Lu Heng's subordinate, and has never had her own independent life.
In such a situation, Lu Heng didn't care about it in the past, because he felt that he could stay with Xiao Ai for the rest of his life.
But now Lu Heng is no longer sure.
Everything he saw and heard in the different dimension made Lu Heng feel a lot of pressure.
He must cultivate to the realm of the present world as soon as possible, and then go to the so-called Tianwaitian to find Sister Yuanjun.
In other words, Lu Heng will leave this world sooner or later. At that time, Lu Heng could not guarantee whether he could take Xiao Ai with him, and whether Xiao Ai was still alive at that time.
Because after returning from Alien Dimension, Lu Heng had a vague intuition that if he continued to practice steadily, he probably didn't need to worry about his age.
But Lu Heng doesn't need to worry about lifespan, but that doesn't mean Xiao Ai doesn't need to worry.
Practitioners in this world have short lifespans...
Most human monks are considered old fashioned to live a few hundred years old. Those who can live for thousands of years are all congenital monks.
Those who can live to be thousands of years old, such as Tao Lao Yao, must be extraordinary people who have been inherited from ancient times.
But even if they have obtained the ancient inheritance and have all kinds of extraordinary experiences, ordinary monks will never be able to live as long as the ancient beasts.
Lu Heng was worried that Xiao Ai would have exhausted his lifespan and turned into loess before he could cultivate to the day when Tiangong came into existence.
Therefore, he supports Xiao Ai's idea and hopes that Xiao Ai can leave some bright colors in the next life, instead of being his Lu Heng's subordinate forever.
At the very least, if Xiao Ai really turns into loess in the future, Lu Heng, who lives alone, will be able to remember the sect that Xiao Ai once created...
The journey home to the south began in this silent silence.
