Chapter 5069: Refusal
aotian could only smile awkwardly in response. The other party knew his strength was far more than that, and in Luo Qian's eyes, Lu Xiaotian was naturally trying to shirk responsibility.Fortunately, y...In Xiyue Valley, a woman in a hooded cloak and white dress, with a bewitching figure, strolled under the moonlight. Her steps seemed to harmonize with the moonbeams, as light and graceful as water. An ethereal aura, like a dream yet real, enveloped her entire being.
However, a nearby figure with the head of a pig and the body of a man, clad in armor, kept yawning intermittently. Then he glanced around several times, occasionally cursing under his breath, ruining this inexplicable beauty and atmosphere almost completely.
“It’s a pity I arrived a step too late.” Luo Ping’er sighed softly.
Since Lu Xia Tian left the Spirit Realm, the two parties have been separated for tens of thousands of years. This time, after Lu Xia Tian's news was heard, Luo Ping'er couldn't wait to stabilize her realm. She came with Zhu Qi and a group of celestial demons.
Lu Xia Tian's arrival in the Demon Realm had already spread. Since Su Xi Island was too far from Xi Yue Valley, by the time they arrived at Xi Yue Valley, most of the powerful demon race members who had come to look for Lu Xia Tian were gone.
After traveling a great distance, Luo Ping'er was once again disappointed to find that Lu Xiaotian had vanished. This time, she felt incredibly let down, for over countless eons, this was the closest she had ever been to him on land. Yet now, he had disappeared without a trace yet again.
“You don't have to worry, my brother Lü is very capable now. The other party even came from the Immortal Realm to the Demon Realm. Although they are being hunted by Emperor Niǎo and Mó Péng right now, it's not a big problem. Emperor Niǎo and Mó Péng are powerful, but can they compare to the Four Heavenly Courts of the Immortal Realm”
Pig Eight was not so worried. He had weathered many storms before. The current danger, while serious, paled in comparison to what Lu Xia Tian had faced in the past.
“There has never been a celestial emperor level powerhouse in the fairy world who directly targeted Tian Ge.” Luo Ping’er glared at the other person with displeasure.
"That being said, don't worry too much. The entire Demon Realm is so vast, if you can't beat him, he won't run away. Di Xiao Mo Peng doesn't have that much face in the Demon Realm."
Pig Eight yawned, “If we could all find Brother Lu, I reckon Emperor Xiaomeng and the Demonic Peng would have found him already. The Madman is about to advance his cultivation, so I say we should go back and guard him.”
"You're in fashion and no one would easily mess with Su Xi Island. Now that we've all left, it's truly worrisome. At the very least, let's wait until Kuang Feng reaches a higher rank before we start looking for Brother Lu again."
"You seem confident about Tian Ge," Luo Ping'er snorted softly. Knowing that this wouldn't work, she pondered for a while before saying, "Forget it, I'll return to Su Xi Island first. After Kuang Shu successfully advances his cultivation, I'll come out and look for Tian Ge again."
"That's right, with our current cultivation levels, we can't offer much help to Brother Lu. I really wonder how he managed to cultivate over the years." Pig Eight sighed wistfully, his usually cheerful demeanor replaced by a rare air of melancholy.

"Well, now you know what it's like to be outmatched, and regret not working hard enough in your cultivation." Luo Ping'er glanced at Zhu Qi with disdain.
“You're not being entirely truthful, are you Sure, I have my share of problems, but I've never slacked off in my cultivation. It's just that I'm a step behind you and Crazyman. That speed isn't bad at all.”
Zhuge scratched his head, "It's just that Lu brother this guy is really not something you can judge by normal standards. When we first met, your strength was about the same as his, but now it's completely different."
"I heard you almost got beaten to death when you first met Brother Tian."
"Those are just rumors. I at least fought Brother Lu for 800 rounds, and only lost by a hair in the last move." Zhu Qi said shamelessly.
Luo Ping'er listened with joy, her mood slightly lifted. "Let's go. Kuang Shu is close to breaking through the barrier. His accumulation is deeper than mine. After breaking through, his strength will probably be even stronger. With his temperament, he'll probably go look for Tian Ge after that. Zhu Qi, you really need to seize this opportunity. Don't blame us for not taking you along then."
“No, no! At least wait until I advance. We both came from the Spirit Realm. It'd be boring to leave me stuck on Su Xi Island.” Zhu Qiyi finally sounded a little panicked.
"The Devouring Demon Blade didn't come back" After escaping the danger, Wuyu Horen's condition was extremely poor. His usual calm and indifferent expression was now full of ferocity, twitching from time to time. Most of his body had already been lost, so his situation was only a little better than Bing Bai Tang's. At least he still had his right arm.

"No, when I escaped, I saw the Annihilation Blade surrounded by powerful warriors including Dongfang Dansheng and Ye Yuanhao."
The Demon-King of the Zangmu clan shook his head, but a cold sneer curled his lips inwardly.
Doesn't this fellow know he's back He was the one who tried to forcibly attack Ye Yuan City before. When things went south, he was the first to run away. Now he has the audacity to ask if we've returned.
The Demonic Blade of Annihilation, that fellow, used to be the weapon of Emperor Xiaomo, and had an arrogant heart, believing himself superior to ordinary Daluo Jinxian-level demons. He always looked down on others.
This time, it wasn't so much that he died at the hands of Ye Yuanhao and the others, but rather that he died from his own arrogance.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Apart from this fellow Wu Yuhuo, the power of the She Mie Mo Jian is no less than any of them. If the other party had made up their mind to leave long ago, they would have been hard-pressed to stop him. The blame lies in this fellow's lack of prudence.
On the other hand, the Qixing Longque acted swiftly and seized the opportunity early on. It's currently without any losses and likely had already made plans for retreat.
>
“Damn that Eastern Saint of Dan.” Wu Yuhuo cursed.
Had Lu Xia Tian not appeared at the last moment, setting up a large formation to buy time for Ye Yuan Cheng, with his strength and the Muddy Immortal Jar in hand, he could have stormed into Ye Yuan City.
The opponent's massive formation had no chance to unleash its full power. Even under the chaotic momentum of the Muddy Immortal Cauldron, Ye Yuanhao and his companions struggled to protect themselves. The entire Ye Yuan City trembled under the overwhelming demonic might of the Muddy Immortal Cauldron.
Just one step short, a brilliant situation was ruined by this Lu Xia Tian fellow. How could I not hate him for calling himself "Wuyu Huo Rong"
"Mo Rong's brother is heavily injured now, and the Devouring Demon Blade has also fallen. Just the three of us remain. What should we do now" Zang Mu demon's voice was gloomy.
“What can we do Brother Mo Rong is nowhere near his former glory, and Dongfang Dan Sheng has teamed up with the Yù Shī gang and Ye Yuan City. With our current strength, we can't even begin to fight them, let alone get close.”
"In my opinion, it's still best to return and report the details to Lord Rin Ming Demon Sovereign. Please ask Lord Demon Sovereign to send reinforcements."

The Qixing Longque is in the best condition now, but its cautious nature has always been ingrained. Otherwise, it wouldn't have survived this trip with all four of them unscathed.

"The Eastern Divine Saint won't stay in Ye Yuan City forever, they will come out eventually." Wu Yuhuo shook his head.
“I was defeated by the great formation of Yè Yuán City, not by those few fellows from the East. As long as they leave Yè Yuán City, we will have a chance. Although this Devouring Demon Blade guy is ordinary in strength, it was after all the weapon of the Demon Lord. We just go back like this, aren't we afraid of facing the Demon Lord's punishment”
As for your worries about me being heavily injured, there's no need at all. Even if I can't fully unleash my own strength, relying on the Zhu Xian Hu (Dirty Immortal Cauldron) to differentiate between them wouldn't make much of a difference anyway.
>
"But..." the Caged Demon hesitated.
"There's nothing to be disheartened about. Before we left, the Demon Lord said that I would lead this expedition. Even though we've encountered setbacks, we may still have a chance. As for the Devouring Demon Blade, once we capture Dongfang Dansheng, I will personally report to the Demon Lord."
With a decisive and unwavering air, the Wuyu Huoren unleashed an overwhelming force that surpassed even Zangmu Demon King and Qixing Longque in power.
The Demon of the Hidden Eyes snorted. Now he was talking tough, this guy must have forgotten who was the first to run away.
"In that case, I'll follow your lead, Mo Zhu. You have injuries and should focus on recovering. I'll go with Zangmu to scout the area and make sure those Eastern Divine Saints don't catch us off guard." Qixing Longque smiled upon hearing this and didn't argue further.
“What was that thing If it weren't for this guy, he wouldn't even have greeted a desperate fugitive before fleeing. The Devourer Blade might not have died.” After leaving the Wu Yu Fire Salamander a distance away, Zang Mu Demon Man could no longer suppress his anger.
>
“Longque, you were the first to escape after Huo Teng fled. Don't say you didn't see the other party's intentions. This guy is crazy for credit, wanting the Demon Lord to truly bestow the Zhu Xianhu upon him. Now that Huo Teng has been severely injured, his strength will inevitably decline, and his reliance on the Zhu Xianhu will become even greater.”
>
"Judging by this guy's temperament, he probably wants us two to be cannon fodder. If we encounter any danger, he'll definitely be the first one to run. Are you really willing to be used by Wu Yuhuo"
“Before we left, the Demon Lord told us to listen to him. Now that the other party insists on continuing to pursue Dongfang Dan Saint, it’s not wrong to say so. However, Wu Yu Huo Rong wants to redeem himself by making contributions. Although we are inconvenient to leave directly, we can't just ignore it and can also notify the Demon Lord's side.” Qixing Long Que chuckled.
"If we don't leave the Forgotten Soul Ruins now, how can we notify the Demon Lord" The demon man with a magic eye on his face looked at the Seven-Star Dragon Bird. "Do you have any other arrangements"
"Didn't you move several capable warriors to Ye Yuan City Why can't I send a few men ahead to explore Wang Hun Ruins"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
The Seven-Star Dragon Sparrow let out a chuckle and said, “We two are indeed inconvenient to leave now, but it’s just about delivering a message. Make arrangements.”“It turns out that even the Dragon Sparrow had already made arrangements, so good. We stayed here not because we were obeying Fire Toad’s orders, but because of the Demon Lord’s arrangement. However, since Fire Toad suffered such a heavy blow and couldn't complete the task assigned by the Demon Lord, we don’t need to cover for him anymore.” Zangmu Demonman nodded in agreement.
At the same time that Qixinglongque and Zangmu Mo Ren were discussing, a group of spiky creatures with swirling wind and thunder appeared above Ye Yuan City like a cloud.

This cloud of fluff was no bigger than a few square meters, with spines and barbs that extended and retracted like venomous snakes.
“Wind and Thunder Spiked!” Ye Yuanhao, who was originally receiving Lu Xiaottian in the hall, hadn't even come out when he felt an overwhelming aura sweeping over him.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Without even leaving his door, Ye Yuanhao could tell from the overwhelming aura alone who had arrived.
Lu Xia Tian's eyes flashed as well, sensing the powerful aura emanating from the newcomer. While not on the same level as the old poison master, this person's strength was comparable to that of Wu Yu Huo Rong. The difference lay in their power source: pure and raw strength derived from their Law Demon Body.
"Having heard that a foreign enemy has invaded Ye Yuan City, this deity has come here to take a look. Is there anything the lord of Ye Yuan City needs help with"
Feng Lei Yunji did not even wait to enter the main hall, "Uninvited arrival, I hope that Lord Ye City Master will be magnanimous."
"This must be the Eastern Saint of Alchemy, Dongfang Dan Sheng. It's an honor to finally meet you."
Lu Xia Tian nodded slightly, but didn't speak. He had just arrived in the Wuhun Ruins and was unfamiliar with everything inside. He didn't even know who the monster before him was, so naturally he couldn't take any stance.
However, looking at Ye Yuanhao's fearful expression, the other party dared to come alone. It was clear that regardless of individual strength or the power behind them, they were probably much stronger than Ye Yuanhao's side.
"Tuobatian, are you here to watch the commotion" Yè Yuānhào suppressed his anger.
"You misunderstood me. I came to deliver something. I heard that Vice City Lord Bing was seriously injured, so I specially brought ten drops of Emperor Salamander's milk." Tuoba Han's side flashed with lightning, and a brown-yellow vial flew towards Ye Yuanhao.
"One doesn't receive rewards for doing nothing. Just tell me what you need." Ye Yuanhao's eyes showed a hint of surprise at first, but he didn't directly accept the other party's offer.
"I have come for the Eastern Dan Saint, and I came specifically to invite the Eastern Dan Saint to visit Fenglei Gorge." This was when Tuoba Xian finally made his intentions known.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“I also need Dongfang Dansheng to help my wife repair her physical body. Dongfang Dansheng cannot go to Feng Lei Dang for the time being.” Ye Yuancheng directly refused the other party's request.
“Eastern Saint is not someone from your Ye City, and you can't keep him just because you want to.” Tobata Khan didn't care about Ye Yuanhao’s attitude at all. Instead, he looked straight at Lu Xiaoteng.
“How is the esteemed Eastern Saint Dan doing Ye Yuan City isn't very safe, this time it almost got broken by several outsiders. In Feng Lei Dang, the Eastern Saint Dan would be a honored guest, with treatment far exceeding what Ye Yuan City can offer.”
“The Eastern Divine Saint was invited by us, and will leave with us later. This Tuo Ba friend is being too domineering, isn't he” The Prison Lion expressed his dissatisfaction greatly.
Tuoba Han's mere presence was enough to awe anyone, seemingly rivaling the power of Wu Yu Huo Long. But the true might of Wu Yu Huo Long lay in its Zhū Xian Chú. Such a half-step Xuan Tian magic weapon wasn't something just anyone could wield.
They came here in search of the treasures needed to refine the Qi Gathering Pill from Seven Cups Demon Bone. Without Lu Xia Tian, even if they found the treasures, it would be difficult to refine the pill, so there was no way they would let him go easily.
"I didn't ask for your opinions, anyway. If Dongfang Dansheng wants to leave, no one can stop him." Tuoba Khan let out a hearty laugh.
"I came here with these fellow cultivators, and I promised the lord of Ye City to help him refine pills. So I won't be going to Feng Lei Ditch for now." Lu Xia Tian shook his head. As an outsider, entering the territory of such a powerful force without understanding the situation is definitely not a wise move.beautiful woman withdrew her gaze from Lu Xiaoteng, letting out a cold snort. She had already sensed the intention of the Dragon Venerable.If the other party only wanted to escape, she might not be ab...
