Rural Romantic Life

Although the others present knew that Lu Yang's martial arts strength was definitely terrifying, they were still somewhat uneasy and worried about him, fearing that he was no match for the gaunt old man.

After all, the gaunt old man was a martial arts expert at the half-step innate realm, a level they could hardly reach.

only?

The result was that their worries were in vain; Lu Yang casually crippled the skinny old man's chicken claw with a single swipe of his claw.

This allowed them to gain a clearer understanding of Lu Yang's true martial arts strength once again.

The gaunt old man looked at Lu Yang not far away, his heart was in turmoil, he was extremely shocked and horrified. He really couldn't believe that a mere 20-something-year-old boy, whose opponent clearly had the martial arts aura of the sixth level of the Acquired Realm, had the power in his hands that was many times stronger than that of a martial artist at the sixth level of the Acquired Realm.

This is why his hand was so easily crippled by the other party.

but?

Soon, he realized a possibility: Lu Yang in front of him must be a true peerless genius, the kind of being who could fight beyond his level.

Another possibility is that the martial arts aura Lu Yang exuded was not the aura of ancient martial arts at all, but rather the aura of a legendary immortal martial artist.

Although the two scents are quite different, they are not easily distinguishable without careful examination.

As his mind raced, his eyes darted around at Lu Yang again, trying to see through him and find out if he was a true immortal martial artist.

He quickly cried out in horror, "You...you're actually a Celestial Martial Artist?"

The gaunt old man found it hard to believe. Lu Yang's martial arts aura did indeed possess the weight and elegance that only a Celestial Martial Artist could have. If he hadn't seen a real Celestial Martial Artist from afar a long time ago and sensed the Celestial Martial Artist's aura that the other party was deliberately emitting, he would have had a real difficulty in distinguishing the two martial arts auras at this moment.

No wonder, he, a dignified half-step innate realm martial artist, was no match for a sixth-level acquired realm martial artist.

It turns out the other party was at the sixth level of the Immortal Martial Realm!

call out!

Upon learning that Lu Yang was a powerful immortal martial artist, the gaunt old man turned and fled for his life. If he stayed here, he would undoubtedly be doomed to die. If he escaped, he might have a glimmer of hope.

Seeing this, Lu Yang's lips curled into a mocking smile, and he couldn't help but say, "Isn't it a bit too late to think about escaping now!"

Hey!

Suddenly, Lu Yang activated the Dragon Sword he had just obtained using the spiritual artifact in his dantian. The Dragon Sword was activated and instantly burst forth with dazzling light, just like a real golden dragon, while also emitting a roar like a true dragon's cry.

Lu Yang gestured, and the Dragon Sword streaked across the sky like a shooting star, catching up with the fleeing, gaunt old man before piercing through his back.

The gaunt old man stared wide-eyed at the dragon sword that pierced through his chest, resembling a real dragon. He couldn't help but blame himself, saying, "Immortal martial artists... are indeed terrifying... I shouldn't have provoked them..."

If there were a way to undo regrets, he would never have provoked Lu Yang, and he shouldn't have deliberately stolen the treasure that Hu Xiaoni found in the first place, or even tried to defile her!

only?

He knew it was all too late, and there was no going back.

Plop!

The emaciated old man's body, having lost all strength, involuntarily collapsed to the ground, kicking up a considerable amount of dust.

Lu Yang slowly walked to the side of the gaunt old man's corpse, then held the Dragon Sword and picked up a storage bracelet left behind by the old man.

Lu Yang was overjoyed after the divine sense invaded.

Unexpectedly, the gaunt old man's storage bracelet contained more treasures than the storage bracelet Li Ruyun had given him not long ago.

In that instant, a thought popped into his mind: "The ancients were right; murderers and arsonists wear golden belts!"

As Lu Yang was briefly taking stock of the various treasures in his storage bracelet, three stunning beauties—Liu Yiyi, Li Ruyun, and Hu Xiaoni—approached him together, expressing their immense gratitude: "Master Lu, thank you!"

Then, a blush crept onto the faces of the three women, and they stammered, "Master Lu, we kept our word. You saved us this time, so from now on, the three of us are your women. Whenever you want us, just come to us..."

By the end, the three of them had blushed even more, like three bright red apples, looking incredibly tempting.

Lu Yang, however, didn't seem to care at all, casually waving his hand and saying, "No problem, no problem..."

Seeing that Lu Yang's expression remained focused on the storage bracelet, the three women knew that he must be taking stock of his gains, which explained his indifference towards them, and this made them somewhat resentful.

After all, they were three stunningly beautiful women who had pledged themselves to each other, but it seemed that the other party was not very interested in them, but rather more interested in the treasure. How could this not make them feel resentful?

This prompted the two men beside him, Python Brother and Qu Jin, to exclaim inwardly, "As expected, it has to be Master Lu..."

Just as Lu Yang finished taking stock of all the treasures in his storage bracelet, a deafening roar suddenly came from the direction of the hall.

The entire secret realm trembled a few times.

Lu Yang couldn't help but activate his Yin-Yang Divine Eyes, peering into the distance. He instantly discovered that someone had deliberately detonated the formation that trapped the dragon in the hall.

The formation was detonated, unleashing terrifying power that blasted the pale golden dragon within it, leaving it covered in blood, its massive golden scales falling like raindrops.

"Awoooooo..."

The dragon also let out an unprecedentedly mournful scream.

Seeing this, Lu Yang quickly reminded Hu Xiaoni and the others beside him, "Let's go, the battle outside is finally over!"

They also heard the deafening roar outside and knew that something terrible must have happened.

They immediately followed Lu Yang and flew towards the hall.

Not only them, but also some martial artists who were originally looting treasures in other secret chambers around the area flew out and headed towards the central hall of the secret realm.

Before Lu Yang and his group had even truly approached the main hall, a fierce, threatening roar suddenly rang out: "Anyone who dares to approach the central hall will be killed without mercy!"

However?

However, a burly, middle-aged man spoke up disdainfully, "I just wanted to see what was going on. Do you really think you could kill me?"

The middle-aged burly man did not stop and continued to fly towards the central hall.

puff!

only?

Just as he stepped into the central hall, an elderly man with gray hair appeared in front of him like lightning and struck him in the chest with a palm strike.

The middle-aged burly man was instantly struck by the old man's palm and died, coughing up blood. His body flew backward and landed right at the feet of Lu Yang and the others.
