The Demon Cultivator of the Sword

Chapter 56: Lanyue Tower Headquarters
Compared with the last time they met at the Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition, Murong Qingcheng was still wearing a purple dress and a veil on her face. But I don’t know if it was Gu Yuan’s illusion, but as she grew older, Murong Qingcheng, who was already eighteen years old, had a more profound temperament and more beautiful appearance. If the previous Murong Qingcheng was only slightly better than some of the beautiful women Gu Yuan had seen, now, she was worthy of being called the most beautiful woman in the country.

I’m afraid that one of the two great beauties of the Black Dragon Empire can be removed, and she is completely the leader.

The appearance of an angel and the temperament of a devil, that's all.

Of course, compared to the changes in appearance and temperament, Murong Qingcheng's strength has improved a lot. Although her cultivation has only improved from the early stage of Baoyuan Realm to the peak of the early stage of Baoyuan Realm, her Heavenly Demon Art has steadily improved and reached the eighth level. In terms of the realm of her skills alone, she is not much inferior to Mo Yan.

As for the ninth level, I’m afraid it’s not that easy.

The last time Gu Yuan briefly flipped through the Heavenly Demon Art, he found that this art was extremely mysterious. The first six levels were a hurdle, and the ninth level was another hurdle. If one was not lucky enough, it would be difficult to break through within one or two years.

"You are the same." Murong Qingcheng said in a casual tone.

In fact, Gu Yuan noticed the change in her strength.

So why isn't she?

Although she did not fight with Gu Yuan in the last Hidden Dragon Ranking competition because Gu Yuan arrived late, she had fought against Li Daoxuan, who was also a swordsman.

And now the feeling that Gu Yuan gave him was no less than that of Li Daoxuan who was on the last Hidden Dragon List.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. You should be heading to the Lanyue Building headquarters."

Gu Yuan asked casually.

Murong Qingcheng nodded, "Well, I think you should be invited as well. It's just right that you and I can go together."

The two walked very close to each other and talked to each other. This action immediately attracted a lot of attention. Some were envious and jealous, but there was no confusion.

Although Murong Qingcheng is the second disciple of their Feitian Demon Sect and one of the two most beautiful women in the Black Dragon Empire, she combines talent and beauty and is the most perfect partner in the hearts of many warriors.

But Gu Yuan was not bad either. Although he was only the third disciple, he was highly regarded by the sect master and the elders. Whether in terms of strength or status, he was not inferior to the eldest disciples of the major sixth-grade sects. In terms of talent, he was not weaker than Sikong Sheng, who had the blood of a king.

Even if Gu Yuan and Murong Qingcheng were really close, no one would say anything.

If you have the ability, you can comprehend the sword intent at the age of fourteen and possess the strength to enter the top ten of the Hidden Dragon List. If you have the ability, you can enter the Baoyuan Realm at the age of fifteen!

After leaving Tianmo Peak, Gu Yuan and Murong Qingcheng set off immediately.

The headquarters of Lanyue Tower is located in Tianxie City, a super city near the Black Dragon Empire in Cangxuan Kingdom.

It is not far from the Feitian Demon Sect, only about 100,000 miles away.

If we travel at a normal speed, it will take ten days.

During the journey, Gu Yuan practiced the three soul-stealing moves every day, striving to master the second move, the soul-stealing move, as soon as possible, so as to have another trump card.

Perhaps because of the stimulation from Gu Yuan, or for other reasons, Murong Qingcheng worked extra hard to improve her martial arts skills and did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

Eight or nine days passed like this, and the two did not communicate much, as they were both working hard to improve their strength.

On the tenth day, the two finally arrived at Tianxie City.

What appeared before the two of them was a black city. This city had no city walls and was surrounded by an inverted cone-shaped mountain valley with a diameter of more than a thousand miles. Except for being high enough, everything else was ordinary. But it exuded a frightening evil spirit. Gu Yuan discovered that most of the people who came here seemed to be practicing magic techniques.

Murong Qingcheng said: "Tianxie City, also known as the City of Kings, is said to be a place where the Evil King fought a great battle with another King of the Life and Death Realm when he was just promoted to the Life and Death Realm. During the battle, the powerful wills of both sides formed an extremely strange and terrifying aura. Ordinary warriors who get too close often go crazy and die. But for those who practice magic and evil techniques, it is a holy place for practice. Over time, a large city has been formed here, and in terms of popularity, it is no less famous than the Black Dragon Empire's Martial City."

"No wonder Lan Yue Tower would establish its headquarters here." Gu Yuan smiled and guessed in his heart that, if nothing unexpected happened, the one fighting against the Evil King would be the king of the demon clan or the evil spirit clan.

After all, the Evil King entered the realm of life and death at the age of thirty-six, and was the greatest genius in the True Spirit Continent in a thousand years before Queen Xuan.

It is normal to be targeted by aliens.

It's a pity that he became slack after entering the realm of life and death, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to reach the combat power of high-level five stars by the time of the alien calamity.

Although Tianxie City seemed very close, it was actually more than ten miles away from the official road. The two of them used their lightness skills to rush towards the city gate tower. The closer they got, the more Gu Yuan could feel the horrible and oppressive feeling. The negative emotions in his heart were unknowingly magnified several times, even giving people extremely real hallucinations.

Using his sword intent, Gu Yuan killed all these negative emotions completely, then turned his head to look at Murong Qingcheng. The other party was not affected by the oppression of Tianxie City at all, and her face was normal and unmoved. Gu Yuanhai even vaguely felt that the other party's body had a more obscure power, which could compete with the momentum of Tianxie City.

"It seems that it is the blood of the human-demon clan in the body."

Gu Yuan guessed in his heart.

Not long after, the two entered the city, and the entrance fee was a low-grade spirit stone.

But unexpectedly, after entering, the feeling of oppression disappeared.

But think about it, Tianxie City is not a pure warrior city after all. In addition to warriors, there are more ordinary people.

I think the people who built this city used some special means to isolate this momentum outside the city.

Outside a magnificent pavilion.

Murong Qingcheng glanced at the three characters of Lanyue Tower on the plaque and said, "This should be the headquarters of Lanyue Tower. The gathering place is in the courtyard behind the pavilion."

Entering the pavilion, there was a steward from Lanyue Tower waiting at the door. She was a beautiful middle-aged woman in her thirties or forties, and her cultivation had reached the middle stage of Baoyuan Realm.

"My name is Guo Lanyue, the steward of Lanyue Tower. Who are you two?"

While speaking, the other party was already sizing up the identities of the two. Based on Gu Yuan's black gold-studded robe, a core disciple of the Feitian Demon Sect, as well as their age and cultivation, she roughly guessed their identities. However, out of caution, she still asked politely.

“Fei Tian Mo Zong Murong Qingcheng!”

"The ancient source of the Flying Demon Sect!"

Murong Qingcheng and Gu Yuan gave their names calmly.

"It turns out to be the second and third nights. Please come in."

Guo Lanyue's face lit up with joy, and she led the two of them across the lobby to the large luxurious courtyard behind the pavilion. The party was held in the fifth luxurious courtyard.

"Deacon Guo!"

There were waiters waiting outside the yard.

"These two are on the second and third nights. From now on, you should serve them well and not neglect them."

Guo Lanyue gave an order and led Gu Yuan and Murong Qingcheng directly inside.
