772: Chapter 732 Return Journey_1 772: Chapter 732 Return Journey_1 Lu Chuan looked down at Yang Qingya, and although her injuries had stopped bleeding, she remained unconscious, which was worrying.

Zhao Kanglong squatted beside her, put his finger under his nose to test, and then looked towards Lu Chuan.

“Benefactor, she still has a weak breath, she should be able to recover.”

“It seems it’s still not enough.”

Lu Chuan squatted in front of Yang Qingya, and his palm once again emitted the Nine Heavens Profound Fire.

Seeing such a splendid flame made Zhao Kanglong exclaim in amazement.

“What…

what is this?

So beautiful, benefactor, you can even control fire, you are truly no ordinary person.”

Lu Chuan pressed the flames onto Yang Qingya’s body once more.

Zhao Kanglong turned his head away, unable to bear watching any longer.

In his mind, pressing roaring flames onto a person would only burn their skin.

However, Lu Chuan’s Nine Heavens Profound Fire penetrated Yang Qingya’s body, beginning to heal her internal injuries.

After a moment, those tightly closed eyes slowly opened, and the bright eyes reopened, looking at Lu Chuan and Zhao Kanglong in front of them.

“Who are you?

Where am I?”

She voiced the same question as Zhao Kanglong.

Zhao Kanglong hurriedly said, “Miss Yang, do you not recognize me?

I am Zhao Kanglong, the City Lord’s son.”

“Zhao Kanglong?

I know you, but this person…”

“He is our life-saving benefactor!

After we entered here, we were possessed by evil spirits, then lost ourselves, and I don’t know how long it was before we finally waited for the benefactor’s arrival.”

“If he hadn’t come here, we might never have seen daylight again, forever unable to wake up!”

He looked at Yang Qingya very seriously.

Yang Qingya nodded somewhat confusedly, and looking at Lu Chuan, she thanked him, “Thank you.

Please quickly take us down the mountain now, we need to return to Myriad Stars City, I don’t want to stay here any longer.”

“You better stay put, the benefactor won’t leave until he has cleared out all the evil spirits here, and he won’t take us with him to flee.”

Yang Qingya looked at Lu Chuan with incomprehension and asked, “Why don’t you take us down the mountain first?

This place is so dangerous, what if we encounter danger again?”

Lu Chuan looked at her, dismissive, “I have no obligation to take you home, if you want to go back, you can go by yourself.”

Yang Qingya suddenly wilted, “Go back by myself?

In this terrible place, how can I go back by myself?

I’m afraid I’d be killed before even getting halfway.”

“Big brother, you’re our lifesaver, we can’t leave without you.”

She quickly stood up, grabbed Lu Chuan’s sleeves with both hands, looking very much like she intended to cling to him.

Lu Chuan sighed helplessly, “I don’t want to waste any more words.

Now, I am going to slay all the evil spirits here.

You two just wait here nicely, and when I’m done, I’ll take you down the mountain.”

The two exchanged glances, finally lowering their heads and sighing in resignation.

Following that, Lu Chuan continued deeper into the mass burial mound.

The place was heavy with a sinister aura, and Lu Chuan had not gone far before sensing the presence of evil spirits surrounding him, as if issuing a warning.

Lu Chuan smiled coldly and suddenly activated the Indestructible Golden Eye Pupil.

With the aid of the Indestructible Golden Eye Pupil, Lu Chuan could clearly see the evil spirits and also discern their movement patterns.

The next moment, Lu Chuan was brandishing the Soul Terminating Sword as he charged towards the crowd of spirits.

Whoosh!!

Lu Chuan’s figure dashed rapidly, instantly slaying a wandering evil spirit, and the accumulated soul fragments were absorbed into the sword.

Then, Lu Chuan continued to swing the sword, striking at the spirits around him relentlessly.

To an outsider’s severe judgement, Lu Chuan looked like he was standing alone, randomly swinging his sword, and they might think he was just idly practicing his swordplay.

But in the face of Lu Chuan’s severity, all the evil spirits buried in the mass burial mound emerged and, at the same time, commenced a siege attack on Lu Chuan.

Mournful wails of the Darkness Agent gradually arose, growing more profound.

Zhao Kanglong found a tree trunk to squat beside, clutching his head in his hands, his eyes vigilantly sweeping the surroundings.

Yang Qingya squatted nearby as well, trembling with fear, not even having the courage to look around.

After an undetermined length of time, the piercing screams around them gradually faded away.

Zhao Kanglong looked up, scanning the area, and suddenly noticed that the light seemed brighter.

The ghastly weather of Heavenly Yin Mountain had finally cleared up a bit.

He slowly stood up and began searching for signs of Lu Chuan.

Soon, Lu Chuan walked over to the two of them.

Upon seeing Lu Chuan, Zhao Kanglong rushed towards him like he had seen a lifesaving straw.

“Benefactor!

You’ve finally come back!”

He hurriedly ran to Lu Chuan’s side, looking at him with great excitement.

“Now, take us down the mountain,” he said.

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “No problem, just follow me closely.”

Lu Chuan sheathed the Soul Terminating Sword back into its scabbard.

A glow emanated from the intricate runes etched along the blade of the Soul Terminating Sword.

Lu Chuan didn’t know yet what might of the accumulated soul fragments would bring if unleashed, but this was definitely his trump card, his last resort for survival.

Lu Chuan started descending the mountain along the path, with Zhao Kanglong and Yang Qingya closely following behind him, not daring to fall half a step behind.

“Benefactor, I still don’t know your name.

May I have the honor of knowing it?” Zhao Kanglong asked as he walked beside Lu Chuan.

“I am Lu Chuan.”

“Young Master Lu, I’ll remember that.

When we get back to Myriad Stars City, I will for sure reward you generously,” Zhao Kanglong promised.

Lu Chuan smiled faintly, “You don’t have to; your generous reward is likely something I would not value.”

“I am the son of the City Lord.

The wealth of our family is extravagant, I assure you it will satisfy you!”

Lu Chuan looked at Zhao Kanglong, asking, “Do you know of the Dongfang family?”

“The Dongfang family?

Of course, I know them.

In Myriad Stars City, they are one of the top influential families with immense power,” Zhao Kanglong replied.

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “I am their honored guest and can be considered their benefactor as well.”

Hearing this, Zhao Kanglong paused, nearly failing to catch his breath.

“An honored guest of the Dongfang family, and their benefactor?”

“Young Master Lu, I had no idea you were so formidable!”

Yang Qingya also hurried over, “Our Yang family is quite powerful in Myriad Stars City as well.

I will remember this kindness you’ve shown us.”

Lu Chuan looked towards Yang Qingya, “I’ve had dealings with your Yang family.

Family Head Yang Ming almost became an enemy of the Dongfang family, but fortunately, they knew enough to read the times.”

Lu Chuan’s words seemed enigmatic to Yang Qingya, but she could sense that Lu Chuan had some past grievances with her family.

“Walk a little further, and we will reach the so-called Shadow Cult.

This time, I intend to conduct a thorough search and find out what secrets they’re hiding there!”

Lu Chuan walked briskly down the mountain path, heading straight towards Shadow Cult.

Zhao Kanglong and Yang Qingya followed closely, sticking right behind Lu Chuan.

They had been lured to this place by the Shadow Cult, so naturally they wanted to thoroughly investigate the situation here.
