Start flat, cut off the wife of the five-star empress

He understood that only by exposing his own strength could he eliminate the threat of Hong Litian.

The Thunder Fire Sword suddenly emitted a burst of dazzling red light and struck Hong Litian.

The moment it crossed the night sky, the extremely powerful power of thunder and fire surged. Lu Yuan's Thunder Fire Sword was like lightning splitting through the air, slashing towards Hong Litian with great power.

His whole body emitted a dazzling red light, as if a god had descended into the world.

The thunder and lightning turned into infinite power under his control, raging in the surrounding space.

Hong Litian was shocked for a moment by this sudden attack, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.

However, he quickly regained his composure and tried to organize his defense.

Several figures quickly descended from the sky above Cangqiong Ridge and rushed to support Lu Yuan.

These are cultivators sent by other sects to help Lu Yuan escape the siege.

"Take action quickly!" an older cultivator shouted loudly.

Immediately afterwards, powerful immortal energy was emitted, forming many unique magic formulas.

The cold air condensed into thick ice mist, and flames twined up.

These fairy magics are intertwined to form a spectacular scene in the night sky.

Su Liyan waved the ice crystal whip in her hand and used ice magic to gradually extinguish the spreading flames.

Zi Cuiling activated the magic weapon "Cold Jade Ice Piece" to enhance her own strength and provide assistance to Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan felt the support from the cultivators around him, and his heart was filled with gratitude.

He held the Thunder Fire Sword tightly, focused all his strength on the blade, and slashed quickly with a unique spell.

Facing the joint attacks of many sects, Hong Litian fell into a passive situation.

He roared angrily and activated the Ghost Sect's necromancy spell.

The stench spread, and a powerful death aura enveloped the entire battlefield.

The warriors of the Ghost Sect became extremely crazy. They wore black robes and devoured life energy under the guidance of spells.

Lu Yuan felt the malice and dark aura coming from Honglitian.

He decided not to delay with him any longer, otherwise the world of cultivation would fall into a greater crisis.

The Thunder Fire Sword emits a stronger and more focused red light, condensing the last bit of strength in Lu Yuan's body on the tip of the sword.

"Five Elements Dunjia·Thunder moves the universe!"

Lu Yuan roared, and the tip of his sword instantly turned into a bolt of lightning that penetrated Hong Litian's defense.

Hong Litian's pupils shrank, and his chest was penetrated directly by the thunder and lightning sword energy, and his body fell back involuntarily.

He looked at Lu Yuan in horror and whispered in disbelief: "You...how could you?!"

Lu Yuan's eyes were cold and firm: "I have already learned about your necromancy using the detection technique, so I have been prepared in advance."

"Hong Litian, don't try to harm my people."

Cold sweat broke out on Hong Litian's forehead, his momentum gradually weakened, "It's impossible..."

The cultivators from all the sects breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Lu Yuan repelling Hong Litian.

They reassessed the situation with some uneasiness. Lu Yuan's thunder sword sent down a powerful flash, directly penetrating Hong Litian's defense.

Hong Laitian looked at the wounds on his body in surprise. He thought he was the most powerful leader of the Ghost Sect in the world of cultivation, but he was defeated in front of Lu Yuan.

The members of the nine major families were shocked. They always had reservations about Lu Yuan.

However, at this moment, they couldn't help but begin to re-evaluate Lu Yuan's strength.

"This Lu Yuan...is really powerful."

A cultivator whispered.

"I used to think that he was just an ordinary person under the protection of the Ziyun family, but I didn't expect that he could kill Hong Litian." Another cultivator could not hide his shock.

At the sect alliance meeting held in Baihua Valley, Lu Yuan stood in front of the stage, scanning all the members of the nine major families.

His tone was calm and firm: "Anyone who attempts to touch a hair of the Ziyun family will pay a heavy price!"

"I will not tolerate anyone laying hands on my people."

This warning caused earth-shaking changes in the hearts of the members of the nine major families.

Some sects that had not taken Lu Yuan seriously before began to pay attention to him.

They realized that Lu Yuan was not the ordinary cultivator they thought. He possessed breathtaking strength.

"This young man is really not simple."

One family leader sighed, "It seems we misjudged him before."

"Yeah, I didn't expect him to be able to repel Hong Litian."

Another family leader also echoed.

The nine major families began to re-evaluate the status of the Ziyun family and Lu Yuan.

They understand that instead of becoming enemies, it is better to choose to maintain a friendly and cooperative relationship with the Ziyun family.

Lu Yuan felt the awe and renewed recognition in his eyes from the members of the nine major families, and felt calm and satisfied in his heart.

He doesn't enjoy showing off his strength, but if it can protect the people he cherishes, then he is willing to do anything.

At the following sect alliance meeting, the nine major families and other sects expressed their willingness for friendly cooperation to Lu Yuan.

Many cultivators here hope to get the support and protection of Lu Yuan, a powerful cultivator. After Lu Yuan returned to his training place to rest, he couldn't help but start to reflect on the possible chain reactions of his action.

Although he successfully defeated Hong Litian, he frequently used advanced immortal techniques and secret techniques, which caused serious depletion of the immortal power in his body.

Sitting on the stone bench, Lu Yuan closed his eyes and immersed himself in his own thoughts.

He realized that he could not rely solely on powerful magic to defeat his enemies, as this would consume a lot of his own strength.

"I must practice harder."

Lu Yuan made up his mind, "Only through continuous practice and improvement of one's strength can one better protect the Ziyun family and companions."

He took a deep breath, began to adjust his breathing, and guided the power of cultivation to operate within his body.

With the help of profound immortal techniques such as Tiangang Beidou Formation and Five Elements Dunjia, Lu Yuan began to repair the depleted immortal power in his body.

As time passed, Lu Yuan felt that the immortal power in his body was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This reassured him a little and prepared him for the tougher battles ahead.

Not long after, Lu Yuan felt someone approaching the entrance of the training place.

He opened his eyes and found Su Liyan walking towards him.

She was holding a bowl of medicinal soup in her hand, her eyes full of concern.

"I heard that you just defeated Hong Litian."

Su Liyan said gently, "I was worried that your body wouldn't be able to bear it, so I specially prepared this bowl of medicinal soup for you."

Lu Yuan took the medicine bowl and took a sip, feeling that the immortal power in his body was more comfortable.

"Thank you, Li Yan."

He smiled and said to Su Liyan, "The reason why I can win is because of your assistance."

Su Liyan shook her head slightly: "You're welcome, we are a team."

"I will always be there for you as long as you need me."

Lu Yuan gradually relaxed and felt connected to everyone. (End of chapter)
