Chapter 599: Meeting Zi Ling Again
"who!"
At the same time the woman in black veil screamed, the big man in black armor beside her had a sharp light flashing in his eyes, and suddenly raised his hand to grab Lu Yuan through the air.
In an instant, Lu Yuan felt the air around him suddenly tighten. The originally invisible air seemed to instantly turn into tangible pressure, squeezing in from all directions, making Lu Yuan feel as if he was imprisoned.
"The Demon Lord's methods!"
Lu Yuan was horrified. Seeing that he could not move his body, he made up his mind to transform into a mountain giant to break free from the restraints.
However, at this critical moment, the woman in black veil spoke.
"City Lord Huan, please stop."
When the big man in black armor heard this, he paused for a moment, glanced at the woman in black veil, and finally slowly retracted his outstretched hand.
"Miss Seven, do you recognize this person?"
The woman in black veil did not respond, but looked at Lu Yuan with a complicated expression. She was surprised at first, then seemed a little bit unbelievable, and finally became cautious.
As the restraining force around him suddenly disappeared, Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, his forehead already covered with cold sweat. However, his expression was somewhat confused and puzzled, and he remained silent.
For a moment, the situation was in a stalemate until the ancestor of the Ming family on the other side rushed over after stabilizing the formation.
"Fellow Daoist Ming, who is this?" The woman in black veil finally broke the silence and asked the ancestor of the Ming family.
"Oh, this Brother Yuan is a guest of my Ming family."
"Brother Yuan, these are the emissaries under the command of the Six Extreme Ancestors. Are they acquainted with you?"
The ancestor of the Ming family has lived for tens of thousands of years. From this subtle atmosphere, he secretly guessed that Lu Yuan might have some connection with this woman of extraordinary status, and that it was the kind that was beneficial rather than harmful. So he unceremoniously tied Lu Yuan to the Ming family.
"Fellow Daoist, is your surname Yuan?" The woman in black veil raised her eyebrows slightly and stared at Lu Yuan's face with her beautiful eyes, as if questioning him.
"Yes, I am Yuan Lu, nice to meet the envoy." Lu Yuan responded very respectfully.
Hearing this answer, the woman in black veil frowned slightly.
The Ming family's ancestor and the others were watching quietly on the side. Even the demon lord known as "Lord Huan" was looking back and forth between the two of them, as if he was waiting for something.
"Oh, it seems I recognized the wrong person. Maybe he just looks a bit similar to my old friend." The woman in black veil shook her head gently, with a slightly lost look on her face.
However, when she turned around and was about to leave, she looked back as if inadvertently, and her eyes met Lu Yuan's briefly. In that moment, it seemed as if countless unspeakable words were conveyed.
"Lord Huan, we have been in Lanshuang City for a few days. Let the Ming family be responsible for refining the armor." The woman in black veil spoke again.
"Hehe, this matter is entirely up to Miss Seven. I am only responsible for your safety this time when you go out." The Black-armored Demon Lord crossed his arms and said carelessly.
"Thank you very much for your favor, Your Excellency the Envoy. Our Ming family will do our best and will not let you down." The ancestor of the Ming family expressed his opinion hurriedly, secretly delighted by this unexpected surprise.
"Well, I hope so. But if something goes wrong, you know the consequences."
"As for my former fellow Taoist, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to 'Jitian City' to find me." After the woman in black veil said this, she left with light steps.
Lu Yuan collected the magic light in his palm, and it turned out to be a token.
......
After the black-veiled woman and the others left the Ming family, the Ming family ancestor quickly found Lu Yuan and asked in a low voice, "Fellow Daoist Yuan, what happened between you and the envoy..."
"I have never met that envoy before. If you want to know, why don't you go and ask them?"
The ancestor of the Ming family was slightly startled, and was about to ask again when he was interrupted by Lu Yuan.
"I forgot to tell Fellow Daoist Ming that I am still short of some of the Burning Frost I collected during this trip to the Frost Plains. I am afraid it will be difficult to repair that thing..."
"Haha, don't worry, Fellow Daoist Yuan, my Ming family will make up for the missing amount of Burning Frost, and this time I will repair it for you for free."
Hearing what the Ming family's ancestor said, Lu Yuan nodded with satisfaction, and then said that he had lost some energy in the forest and frost plain, and needed to rest for a few days.
The ancestor of the Ming family was very considerate and arranged a place for Lu Yuan to recuperate, and also promised that once everything was ready, he would help Lu Yuan repair the "Zhenyuan Mace".
……
In a secret place in Ming family, Lu Yuan’s thoughts were surging.
Although her aura was completely different and she had switched to practicing pure magic, Lu Yuan still confirmed the identity of the woman in black veil.
Zi Ling, the most famous lady in Chaos Star Sea in the human world in the past.
However, when Lu Yuan saw Zi Ling at that time, due to Zi Ling's special identity and the majestic Demon Lord beside her, he did not make that subtle relationship clear.
After all, she is now a disciple of the Six Extremes Saint. To be precise, it might be more appropriate to call her a backup incarnation.
Moreover, Zi Ling is only at the initial stage of Demon Sect's cultivation now. She must have just received the demonic energy infusion into her body not long ago, otherwise she would not have allowed a Demon Lord to accompany her at all times. This shows how much Liu Ji values her.
If I recognize him rashly, there is no guarantee that I will not be secretly investigated.
Once something is found out, with the lofty status of the Six Extreme Saint Ancestor in the Demon World, the power he controls is enough to turn the world upside down. Not to mention a mid-stage Demon Sect cultivator, even a powerful existence like the Demon Lord is just an ant that the Six Extreme Saint Ancestor can easily crush to death.
Moreover, Lu Yuan believed that Zi Ling also recognized him, but did not point it out. Perhaps he had some considerations, otherwise he would not have left a way to contact her.
……
A few days later, Mingyuan came to the secret place where Lu Yuan was with an anxious look on his face.
"What happened? Why does Fellow Daoist Ming look so grim?"
"Fellow Daoist Yuan, someone from the Beast Lord Palace has come. It seems that it is about the matter of Senior Hui. You must be prepared." Ming Yuan said in a low voice with a serious face.
Hearing this, Lu Yuan's heart tightened, but he remained calm on the surface and asked in confusion: "Beast Lord Hall? Senior Gray?"
"What does this have to do with me?"
"Fellow Daoist Yuan, don't you know that Senior Hui fell in the Linhai Frost Plain? He was one of the transformed beast masters of the Beast Master Hall."
"Senior Hui is dead?" Lu Yuan pretended to be shocked.
"We also learned about this from the two Demon Lord seniors from the Beast Lord Hall. They are now in my Ming family."
"That's right. After all, Senior Hui entered Linhai Frost Plain at the invitation of your Ming family. I'm afraid the people from the Beast Lord Palace will not give up easily this time, right?" Lu Yuan regained his composure, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
"Fellow Daoist Yuan, what you said is not true. To be honest, we did not invite Senior Hui to go to Linhai Frost Plain. He heard that we were going to Frost Plain and asked to join us.
Moreover, just before coming to our Ming family, the two demon lords from the Beast Lord Hall had captured Fellow Daoist Qi and his companions, and they also forcibly searched their souls. Fellow Daoist Yuan, do you think you can stay out of this?"
