Chapter 500
Jiang Ruyi's gaze covered the two, and she flew down slowly.
"Dayong." Wan Fangling lowered her voice, nudged her husband with her elbow, and knelt down first.
Shi Yong reacted, then lowered his head and knelt on the ground properly.
Jiang Ruyi frowned slightly.
Shi Yong and Wan Fangling are captives, so they should indeed lower their posture.
But kneeling?
Jiang Ruyi was unhappy in her heart.
The two are at least powerful experts of the vast river, respected and protecting one side of the world; even if they become prisoners, they should have their own backbone.
Such behavior, what kind of decorum is this?
Jiang Ruyi is also a person of the River Estuary Realm, and at this moment, she only felt ashamed to be with these two.
The world was silent.
As the battle ended, there was only the sound of the wind blowing sand and dust in the desert.
Jiang Ruyi did not land, but stood in the air, standing diagonally above the two's heads.
Shanwei disciples are all human cannonballs!
One must be vigilant at all times against such people suddenly making trouble.
Jiang Ruyi had many thoughts and didn't speak, just looking down at the two.
Wan Fangling became more and more anxious, thoughts raced through her mind, and she took the initiative to speak: "Thank you, My Lady, for saving our lives, thank you, My Lady, for not killing us."
Jiang Ruyi finally spoke, asking softly: "We have no grudges, and we even helped you; why return kindness with enmity?"
Wan Fangling sighed again and again in her heart, responding properly: "You just arrived in this world and don't know the rules of Holy Lingshan."
"Tell me about it."
"Yes." Wan Fangling immediately began to tell.
Although the couple had only entered Holy Lingshan for two months, their experience was rich enough.
Relying on the Shanwei Sect's powerful defensive techniques, the two lingered on in a desperate situation, drifted from place to place, joined teams, joined gangs, and even served as slaves for 2 Xihuang believers.
As Wan Fangling spoke, the Master Yu Fu disciples also cleaned up the battlefield and gathered around.
The more they listened, the more shocked they became!
The more they listened, the uglier Jiang Ruyi's face became.
This so-called Holy Lingshan is actually so cruel, and so dirty and ugly!
No wonder, when she previously threw out the theory of "human compatriots, helping each other" to the Shanwei disciples, several Shanwei disciples looked strange.
It turns out that in this realm, all living things take the deity's will as the main priority and collecting the Holy Spirit Qi as the first priority.
So between people, they are competitors with direct conflicts of interest!
It is an enemy-friend relationship where you draw your sword when you meet, and it's a life-or-death struggle!
"So... so cruel?" An Xian couldn't help but speak, even her voice was trembling.
In the human Da Xia, the human race has always been a community of interests and destiny.
With a great enemy in front, people are united and help each other.
But this Holy Lingshan...
As far as the eye can see, are all living things, whether human or demon, enemies?
"Yes." Wan Fangling lowered her eyes.
Jiang Ruyi pursed her thin lips and remained silent.
This series of remarks brought a huge impact to her cognition and concepts.
And when she digested this shocking news, a figure flashed through her mind for the first time—Lu Ran!
Are... are you okay?
When you first arrived in this world, were you also schemed against? Were you ambushed?
Are... are you really still alive?
Jiang Ruyi slowly raised her head, looking at the surging sea of clouds in the sky, only feeling extremely depressed in her heart.
That's right, you must still be alive.
I could notice the abnormal situation of the people in this world through clues, and you, who just arrived, must also be able to notice it.
Jiang Ruyi tried hard to comfort herself, but her heart became more and more worried.
Lu Ran is undoubtedly a human warrior.
A warrior who fights for the survival of the race!
How much he hates evil demons, he cares about the human race.
In that small Yuxiang City, every street, every residential area, had left his figure protecting the people.
Regardless of the cost, regardless of life and death.
And coming to such a world full of schemes and fratricide, a person like Lu Ran...
Is his Dao heart still intact?
After the philosophy he has always upheld completely collapses...
Can he still survive?
Perhaps because of concern, the always calm Jiang Ruyi's thoughts became more and more chaotic.
She closed her eyes and sighed deeply.
The people around were silent as cicadas.
This is the first time in such a long time that Jiang Ruyi's emotions have leaked so severely.
Even in the days of fleeing before, when everyone was in danger, she was the one who remained calm.
But at this moment...
Song Yu pondered for a moment and gave An Xian a look.
Under Song Yu's piercing gaze, An Xian endured the panic, flew to Jiang Ruyi's side, and said timidly: "My Lady."
"Mm?" Jiang Ruyi came back to her senses and looked at the woman beside her.
In a trance, she seemed to see little Tian Tian.
Petite figure, ear-length short hair, a pair of almond eyes, sweet and timid little appearance.
"Are you okay?" An Xian asked with concern in a low voice.
"I'm fine." Jiang Ruyi looked down at the couple, "Have you ever heard of or seen Lu Ran in this realm? He is a Xianyang believer..."
"Is it the Lu Ran who is the pride of Da Xia?" Shi Yong looked up at the beautiful woman.
All along, the couple had been practicing in seclusion in the ancient city under the deity's feet, isolated from the world.
But "Pride" was too popular.
Shi Yong had also heard of Lu Ran's name and had seen some wonderful clips.
Wan Fangling's eyes became brighter and brighter, looking at Jiang Ruyi's veiled face, carefully observing her eyebrows.
In the limited wonderful clips of Lu Ran she had watched, did she seem to have seen this girl's figure?
Then the relationship between these two...
"Have you seen Lu Ran?" An Xian asked hurriedly.
The couple shook their heads one after another, which also made everyone feel disappointed.
Jiang Ruyi nodded lightly and added: "Then do you know which direction the ocean is in?"
The couple shook their heads again.
For two months, they had only seen deserts and stone pillars and had never walked out of the Wan Renshan area, so where had they seen any ocean?
Jiang Ruyi had expected such a reply, and sighed: "Get up."
"Thank you, My Lady." Wan Fangling followed the trend and changed her words directly, "In the future, our couple will definitely serve you and work for you!"
Jiang Ruyi: "..."
People who can survive in this realm are mostly human spirits.
Even if they don't have enough talent in this area, they will be forced and urged by fate to "grow."
Song Yu suddenly asked: "How many people are in this Lieshan Gang of yours?"
Wan Fangling responded: "Counting us, a total of twenty-two.
But a week ago, two teams, totaling eight people, went missing and never came back."
Song Yu added: "What kind of believers are the rest? What is their strength realm?"
Wan Fangling: "They are all Shanwei believers, all in the River Estuary Realm, second, third, or fourth stage..."
After Song Yu asked a few more questions, he looked at Jiang Ruyi: "My Lady, why don't we take this gang?"
Jiang Ruyi pondered, not speaking.
Song Yu added: "The journey is dangerous, and with more strength, we can have more survival guarantees. These two have already described the current situation of this realm: strength is respected, and there is no moral law at all.
People kill each other, and the strong enslave the weak."
Jiang Ruyi still didn't say a word, just frowned slightly.
Song Yu hurriedly continued: "The Shanwei Sect has poor output capability but strong functionality, so it is naturally a piece of fat meat that will sooner or later be eaten by nearby Xihuang and other sects.
Such people will definitely be enslaved!
My Lady is kind; if these Shanwei believers can follow you, at least they won't have to suffer humiliation."
Jiang Ruyi: "..."
Am I kind?
The battle just ended, the enemy's bones are probably not cold yet... well, they are already cold.
They were frozen through long ago.
However, it is indeed time to strengthen the team and accumulate strength.
Jiang Ruyi's eyes flickered; she didn't know how long this journey to find Lu Ran would take.
The road must be full of crises.
The Master Yu Fu Sect also has shortcomings and should use believers from other sects to supplement, so that their side can survive better.
"My Lady!" Wan Fangling looked up at Jiang Ruyi and said respectfully, "Gu Zhang's team and the remaining two teams of the Lieshan Gang have a tense relationship.
Especially after those 8 people went missing, Gu Zhang's ambition swelled, and he wanted to compete for the position of gang leader.
This time, he brought our couple out just to win over us two newcomers."
Jiang Ruyi is as clever as snow, so she naturally understood what the other party was saying.
Sure enough, Wan Fangling continued: "The small group operated by Gu Zhang and those who were close to him all died here.
Others in the gang should not hold a grudge against you because of Gu Zhang's death; My Lady can go ahead and take over the Lieshan Gang."
"Mm." Jiang Ruyi responded lightly.
Seeing that Jiang Ruyi agreed, Song Yu's eyes lit up, and he nodded secretly in his heart.
Zhang Zhenghu and Zhu Yuan looked at each other but didn't say anything.
Jiang Ruyi looked at everyone: "In a while, let's go to the Lieshan Gang and take a look.
Has the battlefield been cleaned up?"
Everyone immediately offered their weapons and divine power beads.
An Xian looked at these spoils of war, her expression very complicated: "This seems to be a slaughterhouse for our human race..."
Everything Wan Fangling said about Holy Lingshan still impacted An Xian's brain.
When she heard that the remaining few people in the Lieshan Gang were all in the River Estuary Realm, second to fourth stage, a certain thought in An Xian's heart became more and more unstoppable.
The team she was in, a group of Master Yu Fu disciples, were also in the River Estuary Realm!
Wouldn't it be better to let people stay in Da Xia, protect one side of peace, and protect cities and civilians?
No wonder the number of human experts in the human world has never gone up.
It turns out they were all sent here by the gods and killed each other because of collecting the Holy Spirit Qi?!
An Xian's mind was very chaotic, so chaotic that she didn't even notice that the surroundings had fallen into a dead silence.
Some thoughts will touch the red line!
Even if the facts are here, you can only think about it in private and absolutely cannot say it out loud!
Unless...
Everyone looked at Jiang Ruyi vaguely, and the couple Shi Yong and Wan Fangling also secretly observed the reaction of this young leader.
In this extremely realistic world, Jiang Ruyi's attitude will determine the attitude of the entire team.
Gradually, An Xian finally reacted!
She expressed doubt about the gods in front of a group of devout believers.
Believing that the merciful and compassionate gods treated the human race as livestock and threw them into a slaughterhouse...
An Xian was completely panicked!
She was shocked and afraid, couldn't help but tremble, and looked at Jiang Ruyi cautiously.
And under everyone's gaze, the noble and cold woman in the white dress turned a deaf ear to everything.
Her gaze swept over the spoils of war and ordered: "Song Yu, distribute them to everyone."
Song Yu remained calm and said in a deep voice: "Yes!"
An Xian looked at Jiang Ruyi blankly, not knowing whether to be glad or grateful...
She lowered her head silently, and the surroundings fell into silence again, the atmosphere tense and strange.
Sorry for being late.
I sat in front of the computer all day yesterday, writing from morning until midnight, and I'm really a bit numb.
