Chapter 464

"An unrelated person doesn't need to be bothered with her."

After Fu Yue asked, Lu Xun answered.

"An unrelated person?"

Lu Xun's answer left both Fu Yue and Fu Xue somewhat baffled.

"Would an unrelated person pester Lu Xun like this?"

The two women exchanged a glance.

Lu Xun's answer like that is clearly off.

"Could it be that,"

"Do Lu Xun and Ning Qianqian really have any connection?"

They didn't pursue the question further.

After all, this is Lu Xun's private matter.

However, a sense of crisis deep in their hearts was silently sprouting and growing.

"Lu Xun, you can't escape me."

Ning Qianqian caught up again.

Lu Xun put on a stern face and decided to completely ignore her.

He continued his exploration, treating Ning Qianqian as if she were air and a backdrop.

She likes being a cheerleader, so let her be.

Simply put, having such a follower clinging all day is still quite uncomfortable.

Not only Lu Xun feels uncomfortable.

Fu Yue and Fu Xue are uncomfortable too.

Fortunately, Ning Qianqian's actions caused no disturbance to Lu Xun, and his gains kept coming steadily.

The Spirit Realm of Seven Stars contains a considerable amount of heavenly and earthly spiritual treasures.

"Ah..."

A sword flash passed, and a barbarian seventh-realm cultivator was slain by Lu Xun.

That guy had it coming.

While Lu Xun was using the Heavenly Dao Eye to search for heavenly and earthly spiritual treasures, he happened to spot him and rushed over to take care of him along the way.

In battles between seventh-realm cultivators, whoever is discovered first usually ends up at a disadvantage.

In Spirit Realms above the Seven Stars, when the seventh-realm cultivators of various races are active, they tend to be relatively cautious.

Like the Shadow Clan, these guys spend most of their time in hiding and hardly ever show themselves.

The barbarians belong to the big, simple type; most barbarian seventh-realm cultivators are strength-oriented.

These guys are not particularly good at concealing themselves.

This makes them easier to discover.

With Lu Xun's current strength, in the Seven-Star Spirit Realm he can basically walk sideways.

Normally, eighth-realm cultivators wouldn't come to the Seven-Star Spirit Realm, but even if they did, Lu Xun wouldn't fear them.

Any foreign seventh-realm cultivator that Lu Xun discovers has only a dead end.

"Someone's underground."

Half a month later, Lu Xun discovered that this Spirit Realm's underground was inhabited by some living beings.

"Teacher, let's go."

After Lu Xun pulled the two women away using the Instant Word Technique, he found a passage to the underground and went down.

He wanted to see whether Ning Qianqian could keep up.

The underground passage is quite complex, with some areas not connected.

For Lu Xun, it's completely no problem.

He used the Golden Toad to open the way, went deep underground for several hours, and arrived at an underground space.

Here, many people live.

"Lu Xun, he is a person of that ancient civilization."

Fu Yue said.

Lu Xun nodded.

During this half-month of exploration, they naturally inspected the ruins of the ancient civilization, found some records therein, and thus learned what these people looked like.

That ancient civilization was not backward; it had even ventured into space.

In the end, it still couldn't escape calamity.

With the attack of extraterrestrial species, part of them fled the continent, their whereabouts unknown.

Most people lacked the qualifications to enter space.

Among them, the survivors hid underground, living in a dark, sunless subterranean space.

The underground of this Spirit Realm is not like the secret realm beneath Lan Xing, which can still project sunlight inward.

Here, the underground is nothing but darkness.

After living underground for an unknown number of years, their civilization degenerated, and even their bodies underwent changes.

They became subterranean people.

Because there is no Dark Energy underground, they also possess little strength.

Seeing once-mighty civilization now reduced to this state, Lu Xun and the two women felt some emotion.

If Lan Xing's ascension fails, what will humanity's ultimate fate be?

Lu Xun went deeper and deeper, passing through one underground space after another, and finally arrived at an underground city.

In the depths of this city stood a tall building.

Inside were stored many treasures of that civilization.

These subterranean people, due to degeneration, could not enter the building at all.

Lu Xun easily opened it and obtained what was inside.

"That civilization must have once had experts above the eighth realm."

Lu Xun thought.

There were still plenty of things inside the building, especially some spiritual energy materials, which could be called rare.

After obtaining that civilization's heritage, Lu Xun injected some Dark Energy into the underground space, as a kind of payment for taking their heritage.

As for these subterranean people, Lu Xun had no intention of taking them to Lan Xing.

These people have long adapted to underground life; taking them to Lan Xing would not be a good choice.

With so many people, Lu Xun could not take them all.

He could instead report the situation upward and let the authorities decide.

"Wow, there's actually an underground world here, Lu Xun, you're amazing; you can find this, I even want to go exploring with you."

Ning Qianqian came again.

She seemed to have installed a tracker on Lu Xun.

Even though Lu Xun had gone deep underground, she still managed to find him.

Lu Xun still treated her as if she were air.

He left together with the two women.

Ning Qianqian followed leisurely, having essentially become Lu Xun's shadow.
