Yan Nantian's Gift of Gratitude: Crystal of the Law of Water!

"Should I just help them out of this predicament?"

The Seven Star Sword Master's longsword rang out, and he shouted sternly, "Lu Yuan, you are clearly treating human life like dirt! Those were the true disciples that our sect was grooming for the future. As the only Nascent Soul cultivator in this area, why didn't you protect them?"

"You must give me an explanation!"

"good!"

Venerable Ziyang was also aggressive: "The disciples of my Purple Mansion Holy Land cannot die in vain. If Fellow Daoist Lu does not give an explanation today, this matter is not over."

The two of them were used to bullying others in the Eastern Wilderness, and they were arrogant even when facing the leaders of other Nascent Soul factions.

Now that their own disciples have been completely wiped out, while the Qingyun Sect and the Yuhua Immortal Sect are unscathed, this huge disparity fills them with resentment and injustice. They subconsciously want to take advantage of Lu Yuan to regain some face.

"statement?"

Lu Yuan slightly raised his eyelids, and a cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

"You want an explanation?"

boom!

The moment the words fell.

A vast, ancient, and supremely noble aura suddenly erupted from Lu Yuan's body.

Behind him, chaotic energy surged, a chaotic sword-like phenomenon appeared, and the phantom of the innate sword materialized.

at the same time.

The laws of the Four Transformations Sword were fully unleashed without reservation.

Clang!

The entire Valley of Fallen Demons seemed to transform into a world of swords at that moment.

The invisible sword intent, like a towering mountain, pressed heavily on Venerable Ziyang and Venerable Qixing.

"What kind of explanation do you want?"

Lu Yuan took a step forward, his gaze sharp as lightning, coldly looking down at the two: "My killing of Blood River Ancestor and saving your lives is the best explanation I can give."

"If you are dissatisfied with me, feel free to try your hand at it."

"Look at the sword in my hand, is it sharp or not?"

Click!

The spirit sword behind the Seven Star Sword Master could not withstand the pressure and cracked open.

The two felt a chill run from the soles of their feet straight to the top of their heads, their faces instantly turning deathly pale, and cold sweat pouring down their foreheads.

Faced with this terrifying sword power, they felt like a lone boat in a storm, about to capsize at any moment.

powerful!

too strong!

Only now did they truly realize how terrifying Lu Yuan was.

How could this be considered a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator?

Even a typical Void Refinement stage cultivator would likely be inferior.

All pride and all discontent vanished in an instant in the face of the threat of death.

"Fellow Daoist Lu... you've misunderstood."

Venerable Ziyang swallowed hard, forcing out a smile that looked more like a grimace, and said in a trembling voice, "We...we are only grieving the loss of our beloved disciple and were in a moment of panic. We have absolutely no intention of blaming anyone."

"Yes...yes."

The Seven Star Sword Master also lowered his proud head, all traces of his previous arrogance gone: "Fellow Daoist Lu's divine might is unparalleled, eliminating demons and protecting the righteous path. He is a model for our righteous path. We... admire him."

Although they verbally yielded, a deep resentment and fear flashed in the depths of their lowered eyes.

The humiliation of today will be avenged tomorrow.

Lu Yuan naturally saw through the two old guys' thoughts, but he didn't care at all.

In the face of absolute power, any conspiracy or trickery is a joke.

If those two old geezers dare to pull any tricks, he wouldn't mind sending them to see the Blood God.

"snort."

Lu Yuan withdrew his imposing aura, too lazy to even glance at these two cowards who bullied the weak.

At this time.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Yan Nantian quickly stepped in to smooth things over.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, please calm down. Today's events were entirely due to your efforts in turning the tide."

As Yan Nantian spoke, he flipped his hand and took out a crystal that emitted a deep blue halo, and handed it to Lu Yuan.

"This was obtained by our ancestors in a Nascent Soul cave. It is a complete crystal of the Law of Water."

"I've heard that Fellow Daoist Lu cultivates both the Five Elements. This Crystal of Laws might be of some use to you. Consider it a token of gratitude for saving my life today. Please don't refuse."

Yan Nantian's words were extremely well-chosen.

This not only eased the awkwardness but also allowed him to befriend Lu Yuan, a Nascent Soul expert.

Lu Yuan's gaze fell on the blue crystal, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

The complete crystal of the laws of water?

This is exactly what he lacks most right now.

Currently, all of his five elemental laws, except for the law of water, have broken through to the third stage of transformation, while the law of water is still stuck at the second stage.

With this Crystal of Laws, his Five Elements Laws will be completely perfected, and he will be able to step into the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm in one fell swoop.

"In that case, it would be impolite of me to refuse."

Lu Yuan didn't stand on ceremony and directly took the Law Crystal, storing it in his storage ring.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, until we meet again."

Having achieved his goal, Lu Yuan had no intention of lingering here any longer.

He reached out and grabbed Lu Xueyao's wrist.

"Walk."

hum!

The Three Transformations Space Law is activated.

Lu Yuan took a step forward and instantly disappeared from the spot.

So far away.

This one step marks a journey of thousands of miles.

Looking in the direction where Lu Yuan disappeared, Yan Nantian sighed deeply, his eyes filled with emotion.

"This young man has already shown his potential; the landscape of the Eastern Wilderness is likely to change..."

Meanwhile, Venerable Ziyang and Venerable Qixing Sword exchanged a glance with gloomy expressions before hastily departing.

Qingyun Sect, Changsheng Peak.

A streak of light descended, revealing Lu Yuan, who had returned after slaying the Blood River Ancestor.

He did not go to the main hall immediately, but instead flashed to a secluded villa in the back mountain.

This is where Su Yueli is temporarily staying.

Pushing open the door, a delicate fragrance wafted out, not the cloying, seductive scent of the Hehuan Sect, but a cool fragrance like a secluded orchid in a valley.

The candlelight flickered inside the room.

Su Yueli was sitting upright in front of her dressing table when she heard the noise and slowly turned around.

She was clearly dressed up carefully today.

Instead of wearing her usual elaborate palace attire that symbolized the sect leader's majesty, she changed into a light crimson gauze dress.

The gauze was extremely thin, like a cloud covering her body, her skin faintly visible, and her snow-white skin glowed with a warm, jade-like hue in the candlelight.

She loosely tied up her long black hair, inserting a blood jade hairpin that Lu Yuan had once casually bestowed upon her. A few strands of hair fell down her slender neck, adding to her languid and charming appearance.

The aloofness and ruthlessness that she usually exuded as the leader of the Demonic Sect were completely absent at this moment, replaced by a gentle charm that ran deep in her bones, like a spirit fox waiting for its master's favor.

"My husband, you're back."

Su Yueli rose, took light steps, walked to Lu Yuan, and bowed gracefully.

She raised her head, and in her captivating eyes, water rippled, filled with undisguised affection and longing.

Before this, although she had been subdued by Lu Yuan and had fallen for him because of the Love Silk Gu, this feeling was still in its nascent stage.

However, outside the Fallen Demon Valley, she witnessed Lu Yuan kill the Blood River Ancestor with his invincible talent.

At that moment, her innate admiration for strength was fully unleashed.
