Chapter 462: Tacit Understanding

Detestable humans, I will definitely kill you, definitely!

In the dark space, that seventh-realm demon clan let out a desperate roar.

After Lu Xun had taken all of his belongings, he burned the man with Southern Ming Separation Fire, then told him that after a hundred years he could naturally leave.

After being burned by Southern Ming Separation Fire, his strength was utterly gone, and he could not escape the spatial prison Lu Xun had made for him.

Now he will be trapped here to die.

Let's go.

Yeah!

The four left this dark space.

After the square pillar was destroyed and the dark abyss was completely burned by Southern Ming Separation Fire, this space held no secrets for Lu Xun.

This place is quite special, situated in subspace.

To ordinary people, space is just space, merely the area they move in.

In the eyes of powerful cultivators, space has many layers.

Even without entering space, one can shatter space with great power.

And one like Lu Xun, who is proficient in space, can manipulate space as easily as moving one's arms.

He can peel space like an onion, see what lies in deeper space, create new space from nothing to trap people, and even perform space cuts and space annihilations.

A dark space lies hidden in deeper space, capable of being reinforced layer by layer, making it hard to detect.

If one does not know its location, one can only reach it via an evil ritual using a hexagram array.

That hexagram array is equivalent to a blood oath, ensuring that anyone who has entered here cannot reveal what happened.

Now then,

Here only a subspace remains, along with the seventh-realm demon clan within the space.

After being destroyed, even the hexagram array cannot grant entry.

Given the secrecy of this space, the seventh-realm demon clan will be trapped here to die.

Even if a hundred years later Lu Xun's spatial prison fails, he still cannot escape.

Lu Xun dislikes going back on his word, so he didn't kill him, but this is even more unpleasant than killing him.

The four left this dark space and continued exploring.

In this Spirit Realm, the greatest secret is this dark space.

Besides that, even if there are some high-grade spiritual objects, they are not easy to find.

This place is too vast; just traveling on the roads consumes enormous amounts of time.

So, after exploring for a few days, Lu Xun decided to leave here.

Xiao Xun, the Heavenly Martial Soul Jade is ready, here you go.

After returning to South Heaven Gate, Old Master Fu handed the Heavenly Martial Soul Jade to Lu Xun.

Thank you, Grandfather.

Hey, why be so polite? I won't accompany you anymore later; let Xiao Yue and Xiao Xue keep you company. They need to go home first; I'll have Tian Ze give them two more sword essences. Come on, let's go to the Fu residence to sit a while.

Old Master Fu invited.

He decided not to continue being a third wheel.

Lu Xun's strength is not bad; last time he killed two eighth-realm beings. If only eighth-realm opponents come to deal with him, they're not enough.

If stronger eighth-realm beings come, such as those invincible under the Nine Realms, or even Ninth Realm beings, Old Master Fu would be of no use either.

It would be better to let Lu Xun spend time with Fu Yue and Fu Xue to cultivate their feelings.

The last time Lu Xun returned, Director Xu gave him a jade pendant with significant origins, which can prevent his position from being found by the Grand Prophecy Technique.

In Old Master Fu's view, even if powerful Western experts wanted to deal with Lu Xun, it would not be so easy.

Grandfather, I still have some matters to attend to; I'll wait here for the two teachers.

That's fine.

Lu Xun does not plan to go to the Fu family; he still has some matters to attend to first.

Lu Xun, let's meet again in a few days.

Yeah.

The three members of the Fu family left.

Lu Xun then went to the Lu Clan Group's shop at South Heaven Gate.

Boss, these are the spiritual medicines we bought; let me know if you need any.

Xie Yuyan saw Lu Xun arrive and hurriedly took out the spiritual objects she had purchased.

She has many responsibilities; the most important is purchasing spiritual medicines for Lu Xun from the Ancient Road Node.

The spiritual medicines at the node are quite aged, and may also have some rare qualities.

This relates to elixirs of seventh grade and above.

At the South Heaven Gate market, every day large numbers of people are purchasing various spiritual medicines.

Xie Yuyan hired over a hundred people specifically responsible for purchasing.

Lu Xun brought these spiritual objects to Bai Ling and had Bai Ling look at the elixirs he had refined over several days.

Boss, you're still the best.

Bai Ling admired Lu Xun wholeheartedly.

The elixirs Lu Xun refined these past few days are all rare, and the refinement difficulty is considerable.

Yet they all succeeded, and they are all Saint-grade elixirs.

Bai Ling, however, does not have such a high pill-forming success rate.

"Bailin, keep it up, you can do it too."

Lu Xun rubbed Bailin's little head.

"Yeah! I'll work hard, boss!"

Bailin nodded vigorously.

Lu Xun~

That afternoon, Chu Youqing and Murong Wan returned from the Spirit Realm.

As soon as they got back, Chu Youqing immediately messaged Lu Xun and saw him right away.

Upon seeing Lu Xun, Chu Youqing happily flung herself into his arms.

Lu Xun asked.

He discovered that their gains this time were not small.

Most importantly, they gained tempering, and each of the two girls killed some starry void beasts equivalent to the fifth realm.

Next, they prepared to make a brief adjustment and then set out again.

The two girls were not lacking in cultivation resources.

The resources Lu Xun had prepared for them were sufficient for them to cultivate to the seventh realm.

But they lacked experience.

Even with heads down in cultivation all day, no matter how fast their cultivation advanced or how solid their foundation, they would still feel somewhat unsteady.

In the long run, their mindset would encounter issues.

In this aspect, only Lu Xun is an exception.

But Lu Xun had cheats.

They had no cheats.

Therefore, the two girls prepared to make good use of this ancient path node to temper themselves thoroughly.

Lu Xun did not stop them.

Chu Youqing, having finally seen Lu Xun, intended to be lovey-dovey with him for two days before acting.

Lu Xun took her back to the Lu family building, where they started living as a trio.

Well, Murong Wan was there too.

They cooked together, ate together, and discussed some recent news.

Being with Chu Youqing and Murong Wan, Lu Xun felt especially relaxed and at ease.

"It's already 3 o'clock; time to go to sleep."

Without realizing it, the three talked until midnight.

The outside light remained very bright.

This is because after entering the ancient path node, Lan Xing had no night.

"Lu Xun..."

On the first night, Chu Youqing sneaked into Lu Xun's room and slept nestled in his arms.

On the second night, Chu Youqing did not come again.

"This girl..."

Lu Xun naturally knew what she meant.

After wavering for a moment, Lu Xun still couldn't restrain himself.

Thus, he secretly went to Murong Wan's room.

"Lu Xun, don't..."

Murong Wan wasn't asleep at all; she wanted to turn Lu Xun down, but couldn't.

Lu Xun, having held it in for so long, released his pent-up fury onto her.
