Cultivation: I have an inventory

Returning like an arrow.

Although Liyang Fairy City is not his hometown for Xiao Changqing, he has lived there for more than ten or twenty years after all. In addition, he thought that he would be able to retreat and form elixirs when he returned. Xiao Changqing accelerated his speed and tried his best to drive the flying boat. There were almost no people along the way. Any sightseeing tour.

It took nearly five months to arrive and just over three months to return, and we were right in front of Yangxian City.

Buzz!

Arriving in front of the city wall of Liyang Immortal City, Xiao Changqing faced the shocked eyes of countless monks queuing up and crossed directly across the sky without falling for inspection at the city gate.

As for the person in charge of the Liyang Guard guarding the city, he originally saw someone daring to break into the city as soon as possible. He wanted to quickly activate the formation to stop the intruder.

However, after recognizing Xiao Changqing's appearance and revealing his identity, he pressed down the formation without hesitation, made a respectful welcome, and happily sent a message: "Welcome Deputy City Lord Xiao to return!"

The person in charge of guarding the city is not an ordinary Liyang Guard, but the captain of Liyang Guard, who can be regarded as a high-level official in Liyang Immortal City.

So it is natural to know what Xiao Changqing's status is.

In terms of true strength and status, City Lord Gu Zongyuan has to listen to this Deputy City Lord!

Xiao Changqing nodded.

Enjoying special treatment, being able to come and go freely in this prosperous fairy city, and having the highest authority, it feels pretty good.

Even though it was not his hometown, Xiao Changqing suddenly felt a sense of belonging to Liyang Fairy City.

At least in the entire Dayu Immortal World, the most comfortable place for Xiao Changqing to stay is Liyang Immortal City.

Even if Nanshanfang did not fall under the rule of the evil cult, he could still go back, and it would not make him feel more familiar than Liyang Fairy City.

"Continue to be on duty."

Xiao Changqing said something to the captain guarding the city gate and flew towards the main peak.

After the captain saw Xiao Changqing disappear, he quickly said to his close associates: "Quickly, go to the city lord's mansion immediately and tell the city lord that deputy city lord Xiao has returned... No, I'll go there myself."

Deputy City Lord Xiao has been away for more than a year. As the captain of the Liyang Guards, he clearly knows how much City Lord Gu Zongyuan has missed him during this time.

Especially in the past two months, the situation in the Yunwu Mountains has changed drastically, and the frontline battlefield has become treacherous. Even though Liyang Immortal City is located in the hinterland of Dayu Immortal Realm, it has begun to be significantly affected. Gu Zongyuan, as the city lord, is even more worried.

Vice City Lord Xiao returns at this time and can stabilize the confidence of Liyang Fairy City.

…

The main peak of Liyang Mountain Range, the highest point.

The spiritual energy level has reached the third level of the spiritual vein cave.

At this time, the outside world has entered the cold winter. It had already snowed half a month ago, and the cold is approaching.

Uh-huh!

Xiao Changqing stepped through the formation and came to the cave.

Suddenly I felt the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, and it was as warm as spring.

Although monks will not be greatly affected by the normal changes in cold and heat between heaven and earth, a warm environment will always make people feel happier.

After being away for more than a year, my cave as a whole has not changed much. There are still many subtle changes. There are more types of spiritual plants and the number of spiritual birds has also increased.

"Lord?!"

Lin Ziyu, who was casting a spell to irrigate the spiritual plants, immediately noticed Xiao Changqing. Immediately, the magic power was not flowing smoothly and the spell failed.

He was stunned subconsciously, as if he was afraid that he was hallucinating, and he paused for a moment before reacting.

Feeling excited and overjoyed, he immediately flew to Xiao Changqing's side and said a thousand words of greeting: "My lord, you are finally back. Has it been a smooth journey?"

“It went well and was very rewarding.”

Xiao Changqing smiled and nodded, reaching out to touch Lin Ziyu's fair and smooth beautiful cheek. He could feel the woman's heartfelt joy after seeing him return, but due to her personality, she would try to restrain herself.

Before I could reminisce about the past, a Kine Shadow had already rushed towards me from the distant attic.

"Ah!!! Lord!"

Along with the excited shouts, Xiao Changqing's arms were filled with warm and fragrant nephrite.

If Lin Ziyu suppresses her happiness and excitement as much as possible, then her sister Lin Zixi blooms and expresses nakedly.

Two different ways, but the yearning for him is sincere, and the excitement of seeing him return is not fake at all.

"Master, I have researched several new dishes this year, and they all taste good. Can I prepare them for you now?"

"I also brewed a lot of new spiritual wine, and finally successfully brewed a second-level spiritual wine. Do you want to try it first?"

Lin Zixi said as if offering a treasure.

When he was in Nanshanfang, Lin Zixi was quite talented in cooking and wine-making, and he also brewed first-class spiritual wine.

A few years before arriving in Liyang Fairy City, because I was busy cultivating and wanted to build a foundation as soon as possible, my cooking and wine-making skills temporarily fell behind. After the foundation building was successful, I had free time, and my mana increased and I became more controllable, so my cooking and brewing skills improved greatly.

Especially in the year when Xiao Changqing left, Lin Zixi worked even harder in this regard, just to prepare for Xiao Changqing’s return.

Of course, Xiao Changqing would not be disappointed and nodded.

Just when Xiao Changqing was enjoying the warmth of returning home after being away for a year, there was a vibration in the formation of the cave, and someone came to visit him. .

The visitor was naturally the city lord Gu Zongyuan who had received the news from the city gatekeeper.

Uh-huh!

Xiao Changqing opened the cave formation and let him in.

"Brother Xiao, am I here at a bad time?" Gu Zongyuan said with a smile.

Xiao Changqing took a sip of wine, "If you are so self-aware, you can go back first and come back in two days."

Gu Zongyuan waved his hand and sat down opposite him shamelessly. He did not dare to let Lin Ziyu pour the wine. He poured himself a glass and said with a smile: "Although I am self-aware, you also know that I have always been thick-skinned... Hmm? Good wine! Is this the fine wine newly brewed by Miss Xiaolin? Is it much? If it is much, I will take some away later."

"You want to eat and take it, right?" Xiao Changqing said unhappily, "If you have something to say, just say it. It happens that you are here today, so don't come to see me in the next few months. I plan to retreat for a while."

Joking is joking.

I have been away for a year. I think something important must have happened in Liyang Xiancheng, otherwise Gu Zongyuan would not be so tactless to disturb my and my two concubines' wedding at the first time.

Moreover, after returning to Liyang Immortal City, although Xiao Changqing did not explore too much, he could vaguely feel something different when he flew all the way back to the cave from the city gate.

"You have to go into seclusion right after you come back? Did you gain a lot from going out?"

Gu Zongyuan was a little surprised, but he knew the rules very well and did not ask too much.

Anyway, the more Xiao Changqing gained, the stronger his strength grew, and the better it was for Liyang Immortal City.

"There is indeed something." Gu Zongyuan said seriously: "Brother Xiao, do you know that the evil cultivators of the Demon Cult have broken through the Yunwu Mountains?"

"The Demon Cult broke through the Yunwu Mountains? When did it happen?" Xiao Changqing's expression was slightly stern.

"Two months ago, I just learned the news not long ago..." Gu Zongyuan's face was full of sorrow.

Two months ago...

Xiao Changqing really didn't know this news.

He has been on the road for the past three months and has hardly stopped, so naturally he has no way of knowing the news from the outside world.

However, in fact, during this trip to the Western Regions, Xiao Changqing also had a clearer judgment of the situation on the front battlefield. It was only a matter of time before the evil cultivators of the Demon Cult broke through the Yunwu Mountains and attacked the heartland of the Great Yu Cultivation World.

Especially when searching the soul of the ancestor of the Xie family, he learned that even such a top Jindan family had begun to collude with the Demon Cult, which can infer how bad the situation is.

In addition, the Seven Star Sword Sect and the Star Moon Palace did not resist thoroughly, and they have always adopted a policy of appeasement. Facing the "desperate" and desperate evil cultivators of the Demon Cult, it would be strange if they could resist.

But... I didn't expect it to be so fast.

"Even if the evil cultivators of the Demon Cult broke through the Yunwu Mountains, they are still tens of thousands of miles away from our Liyang Xiancheng, and it is impossible to suffer from war in a short time. But the situation is different after all, we have to prepare in advance..." Gu Zongyuan was worried.

The Demon Cult is coming fiercely, and the final result is nothing more than three.

The first and worst one is naturally the disastrous defeat of the Great Yu Cultivation World, and the evil cultivators of the Demon Cult march straight into Liyang Xiancheng.

There will be no choice at that time, and everyone will be forced to evacuate.

The second best situation is that under the leadership of Xingyue Palace and Qixing Sword Sect, they will defeat the Demon Sect and drive it back to the other side of Yunwu Mountain Range. If so, Liyang Fairy City only needs to contribute a little.

The third situation is that this war will last for a long time, and the war will continue. At that time, the situation in Liyang Fairy City will not be better. It will inevitably be harassed by the Demon Sect and oppressed by the Seven Star Sword Sect and Xingyue Palace.

As for the final result, Gu Zongyuan can't judge it now, and can't see it clearly.

He came to Xiao Changqing today just to communicate first.

After a while, whether it is the Seven Star Sword Sect and Xingyue Palace who come to the door, or the evil cultivators of the Demon Sect who come to the door, they will be mentally prepared.

"I know it in my mind."

Xiao Changqing said goodbye to Gu Zongyuan, and his heart was more eager to form a pill.

After drinking and eating the feast carefully prepared by Lin Zixi, he spent two more days with the two sisters.

After washing away the dust on his body, his mental state was restored to its best.

On the third day, Xiao Changqing officially began his retreat to break through in the third-level cave on the main peak of the Liyang Mountains. (End of this chapter)
