Chapter 1335: Chapter 655: Power, White Netherworld River!

His figure moved, and he charged towards those men in gray.

His swordsmanship was fierce and precise, each strike imbued with Star Force, making it impossible for the men in gray to defend.

Under his assault, the men in gray fell one after another to the ground.

Ultimately, all of the men in gray were defeated by Luo Yao and Li Qingyun.

They lay on the ground, devoid of any strength to resist.

Luo Yao and Li Qingyun looked at the fruits of their battle before them, both letting out a sigh of relief.

Thus, this trouble could be considered settled.

"Brother Luo, what do you plan to do next?"

Li Qingyun looked towards Luo Yao, a questioning look in his eyes.

Through this series of adventures and battles, their friendship and trust had reached a new level.

They were not only comrades fighting side by side but friends who could entrust their lives to each other.

Luo Yao pondered for a moment, gazed into the distance, and slowly spoke: "Qingyun, I want to make a trip back to Shenmu City."

Li Qingyun nodded, showing understanding: "Shenmu City is, indeed, the closest city nearby, but the Heart of the Sky in your possession is too precious, I worry..."

Luo Yao interrupted him with a smile: "I understand your concern, but rest assured, I will proceed with caution."

"Moreover, I believe that as long as we unite, nothing can stop us."

Li Qingyun felt a warm surge in his heart upon hearing Luo Yao’s words.

He knew that Luo Yao was a trustworthy friend, and his words would surely be fulfilled.

Thus, the two decided to head to Shenmu City together.

Before leaving, Luo Yao carefully secured the Heart of the Sky so that no one would be able to discover it.

After several days of hurried travel, they finally returned to Shenmu City.

Shenmu City, this ancient and prosperous city, nestled amidst dense forests, seemed like nature’s guardian.

The architecture in the city was simple yet elegant, the streets were clean and tidy, bustling with pedestrians, evoking a sense of tranquility and harmony.

As soon as Luo Yao and Li Qingyun entered Shenmu City, they felt the city’s flourishing and bustling atmosphere.

They weaved through the crowds, searching for a place to stay.

After some searching, they found an inn called "Yunlai Inn" and decided to lodge there temporarily.

Inside the inn, Luo Yao and Li Qingyun each rented a room and, after a brief rest, agreed to meet in the inn’s lobby.

They found a seat by the window, ordered some small dishes, and started discussing their next steps.

"Brother Luo, how do you think we should deal with the Heart of the Sky?" Li Qingyun asked first.

Luo Yao pondered for a moment and slowly spoke: "The Heart of the Sky is a treasure of the world, its power incredibly potent."

"However, it is also extremely dangerous. A slight mistake could bring catastrophic disaster."

He paused and continued: "I believe we should secure it properly first and wait for the right opportunity to handle it."

Li Qingyun nodded in agreement: "Brother Luo is absolutely right, but the Heart of the Sky is so precious, how should we secure it?"

Luo Yao smiled slightly, took out a small jade box from his bosom, and gently placed it on the table: "This is my plan."

Li Qingyun picked up the jade box with curiosity and examined it carefully.

The jade box was engraved with intricate patterns, emitting a faint glow, giving off a mysterious and solemn feeling.

"This is..." Li Qingyun looked at Luo Yao in surprise.

Luo Yao explained: "This is a jade box specially crafted by an Artifact Refining Master, named ’Star Jade Box.’

"It’s made from a rare material called ’Star Jade,’ possessing an extremely strong sealing ability."

"Placing the Heart of the Sky inside can isolate its aura, preventing it from being detected by others."

Li Qingyun heard this and couldn’t help but admire Luo Yao’s attentiveness and thoroughness.

He nodded and carefully placed the Heart of the Sky into the Star Jade Box, then closed the lid again.

In the days that followed, Luo Yao and Li Qingyun roamed around Shenmu City, absorbing the local customs and historical culture.

They sampled local delicacies, watched spectacular performances, and even had friendly exchanges with some cultivators.

However, such good times did not last long.

On the evening before they were about to leave Shenmu City, an unexpected message shattered the peaceful atmosphere.

That night, Luo Yao and Li Qingyun were chatting leisurely in the inn.

Suddenly, there was a rapid knocking on the door. They exchanged glances, furrowing their brows.

Who could be looking for them so late?

Luo Yao got up, walked to the door, and opened it, finding a panting attendant standing there holding a piece of paper, urgently saying: "Distinguished guests, someone asked me to give this to you."

Luo Yao took the note and saw it read: "Heart of the Sky, come quickly to trade."

"Otherwise, your life is in danger." An address was also attached below.

Seeing the note, Luo Yao’s face instantly darkened.

He understood that this was a threat from forces coveting the Heart of the Sky.

They had actually found their way here, and dared to threaten them so brazenly!

Li Qingyun saw this and realized the gravity of the situation.

He clenched his fists, a flicker of anger in his eyes: "Brother Luo, what should we do?"

Luo Yao took a deep breath to calm himself down.

He knew that the current situation allowed no hesitation.

He had to make a decision quickly, otherwise, he would not only put himself in danger but also endanger innocent lives.
