Chapter 243: Brother Xun, did he save the world?

Teacher.

The moment he saw Fu Xue, Lu Xun's smile instantly lit up his face.

After several months, he finally returned to Lan Xing.

To Lu Xun, every blade of grass and tree on Lan Xing smelled fragrant.

A great beauty like Fu Xue, naturally, is unimaginably fragrant.

Fu Xue moved her lotus steps lightly, her skirt slightly fluttering.

Her autumn-water eyes brimmed with incredulous delight, her long lashes trembling slightly, as if confirming this was not a dream.

She seemed unable to believe that Lu Xun had really returned.

Ever since Lu Xun returned, she has come here to check; Fu Xue may have been watching the South Heaven Gate all along.

That's why she arrived so quickly.

Indeed, that is the case.

Since returning to Lan Xing, Fu Xue has been cultivating on the South Heaven Gate, aiming to break through to the Seven Realms on one hand, and on the other, so she would know immediately if Lu Xun returned.

These past months, Fu Xue hasn't been without ideas.

But she didn't have any particularly good solutions.

The existence of the Ancient God frightened the high-ranking officials of Lan Xing.

Given the Ancient God's power, even if all of Lan Xing's experts were mobilized, they would still be wiped out.

How could they possibly save Lu Xun then?

Haven't you seen that the Heavenly Dao has closed that Spirit Realm entrance?

In fact, not only Lan Xing's Heavenly Dao, but the Heavenly Dao of other spirit stars has also closed that Spirit Realm entrance.

Even adding the mysterious Yao Xing to the few spirit stars of this ancient road node, together they still wouldn't be enough to match the Ancient God.

So Fu Xue tried every means, even returning home once, but found no way to save Lu Xun.

Having no other choice, Fu Xue could only cultivate.

She knew Lu Xun had many methods; if any were useful against the Ancient God, it would likely spare his life.

And as long as Lu Xun lived, there remained hope of rescuing him.

Even if not now, it might become possible in the future.

If not in one year, then ten, a hundred, several hundred years!

As long as her strength keeps improving, one day she might reach the Immortal God Realm by asking the Dao.

Then she could snatch Lu Xun from the Ancient God's grasp.

Yes, Fu Xue never thought Lu Xun could escape the Ancient God on his own.

That hope is too slim.

However, she hasn't completely given up hope, which is why she cultivates while waiting at the South Heaven Gate.

"Teacher, do I have dirt on my face?"

Lu Xun felt a little embarrassed under Fu Xue's gaze.

Fu Xue's personality is cold; she wouldn't give a second glance to any other man.

Even with Lu Xun, she rarely looks at him for so long.

Not only does she look long, her gaze is also noticeably fervent.

"There's a story here."

Beside them, Li Bu Fan's eyes instantly lit up like they were fitted with 24K titanium-alloy dog eyes, his gossip soul blazing!

Because Lan Xing's high-ups sealed off news of the Ancient God, Li Bu Fan didn't know what Lu Xun had experienced these past months, nor why Fu Xue looked at him that way.

His mind instantly conjured a story of a disciple who betrayed his master.

"As expected of my brother Xun..."

Li Bu Fan instantly felt the cute girl beside him was no longer appealing, and he admired Lu Xun with utter devotion.

He was still flirting with cute girls.

As a result, Lu Xun here had already begun taking on Six Realms experts.

Being reminded by Lu Xun's words, Fu Xue realized she had acted somewhat out of character.

It was simply that Lu Xun's sudden return made her feel utterly unbelievable.

"Lu Xun, are you alright?"

Her face regained its usual composure as she asked with concern.

"Teacher, I'm fine—look, my hands and feet are good, everything's great."

Lu Xun spoke in a relaxed tone.

"But..."

Lu Xun's tone shifted.

"Huh?"

Fu Xue anticipated what came next.

"I almost thought I wouldn't make it back, that I'd never see you again, Teacher."

Lu Xun continued.

Upon hearing this, Fu Xue's pretty face involuntarily blushed slightly.

"Eh?"

Why does she also love blushing?

Lu Xun was speaking from the heart, with no other meaning.

Just come back.

Fu Xue's demeanor quickly returned to normal, her eyes full of relief.

High!

Li Bu Fan beside him went crazy liking it.

If I had Brother Xun's flirting skills, I wouldn't worry about not having a senior.

Li Bu Fan didn't know Lu Xun was speaking his mind; he thought Lu Xun was pursuing Fu Xue.

He wanted to take out a little notebook, record Lu Xun's sayings, and study them well.

Hahaha, Brother Lu, you've finally returned.

At that moment, accompanied by loud laughter, another figure descended from the sky.

This is Protector Chen of the Northern Dipper Hall!

Protector Chen, being of the Six Realms, although his aura was restrained, his presence still caused Li Bu Fan and nearby cultivators to startle.

It's Protector Chen.

Someone recognized Protector Chen.

Protector Chen is more active in the Northern Dipper Hall; the cultivators who know him are far more numerous than those who know Fu Xue.

After Protector Chen came to Lu Xun's side, seeing Lu Xun unharmed, he couldn't help but laugh heartily, slapping Lu Xun's shoulder with his big hand.

Brother Lu, I knew you'd be fine.

Protector Chen's voice was like a great bell.

Though he said that, in fact, from the surprise in his eyes, Lu Xun's return was still far beyond his expectations.

After all, that Ancient God thing is too terrifying.

Protector Chen, being of the Six Realms, before the Ancient God was like an ant; so powerful that he couldn't even imagine how Lu Xun could have escaped.

How does he call Brother Xun 'brother'???

Li Bu Fan was startled.

Protector Chen, a Six Realm, actually calls Lu Xun brother.

Li Bu Fan rubbed his ears, thinking he had misheard.

What, Lu Xun came back?

At that moment, more people were startled.

Little brother, it's really you!

Another Six Realm has arrived.

This is Protector Yu, a Six Realm Immortal Cultivator of the Clear Void Palace.

Recently, the time for the Heavenly Dao Battlefield to open is drawing near.

Protector Chen and Protector Yu's abilities are not bad; back in school they were both top-tier talents, they also had qualifications to enter the Heavenly Dao Battlefield, so they didn't go explore the Spirit Realm.

Instead, they waited in the South Heaven Gate for the Heavenly Dao Battlefield to open.

That's why they could arrive so quickly.

Protector Yu's eyes were also full of surprise and joy.

Lu Xun's return made him both surprised and happy.

The reason for the surprise is still the same.

Lu Xun actually returned on his own.

The joy, naturally, is the fact that Lu Xun returned.

It's Protector Yu; he also came.

Protector Yu's arrival drew more cultivators' gazes.

He also calls Brother Xun 'brother'?

Li Bu Fan blinked, suddenly feeling how strange this world was.

Another Six Realm calls Lu Xun brother.

Then what kind of brother is this Lu Xun?

Is he the most useless brother!

He actually returned on his own.

At that moment, a figure flashed.

Another graceful figure appeared nearby.

This is Fu Yue.

Fu Yue has also been at the South Heaven Gate recently.

Hahaha, my little magpie at home has been chirping nonstop today; I knew something good would happen, never expecting it to be such a big good thing.

Accompanied by hearty laughter, a flying boat descended.

On the flying boat, a white-bearded old man laughed heartily.

This is Master Ge.

Master Ge! He actually came too!

Who is Master Ge?

An eighth-rank artificer! You don't know this? If you had a weapon he forged, as long as you don't meet those geniuses, you could walk sideways at the same realm.

Hiss! So powerful?

Few know Master Ge, but some cultivators still recognized him.

When his identity was revealed, the surrounding cultivators all gasped, their gazes toward Master Ge becoming fervent.

To these ordinary cultivators, an eighth-rank artifact refiner is an exalted figure beyond reach.

The kind they never see in a lifetime.

Now, that person actually shows up here.

"Grand Master Ge... Wow! Why is he shouting 'Xun Ge, young friend'?"

Li Bu Fan was startled again, performing a pupil earthquake on the spot!

"Lu Xun."

Another person has arrived.

This is a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing the Northern Dipper Precious Robe, his eyes like lightning, resembling an immovable mountain.

"The Vice Hall Master of the Northern Dipper Hall... hiss!"

A cultivator recognized the other party.

"What, the Vice Hall Master of the Northern Dipper Hall has come too?"

More cultivators gathered around.

"Xun Ge just came back from the Spirit Realm, how did so many big shots appear all at once... Xun Ge, did you save the world?"

Li Bu Fan was so shocked his CPU burned out!
