Chapter 1088: Leaving the city and being ambushed
“Venerable Han Chen!”
Lu Xuan stood up and said, “There’s no doubt that they are coming for me. Isn’t this a coincidence? It just so happens that the teleportation point of the Great Void Pavilion has encountered some problems recently and needs to be repaired. Hehe!”
Upon mentioning this, Venerable Han Chen’s expression turned ugly. The Golden Immortals outside the King Peng City were not a big problem to begin with.
After all, they could directly return to the Great Void Pavilion through teleportation talismans. This was also the reason why the Great Void Pavilion did not care too much about Lu Xuan. They only issued a statement not to let the Golden Immortals interfere.
This was because at any critical moment, Lu Xuan could directly return to the Great Void Pavilion using teleportation talismans. Who knew that the teleportation formation of the Great Void Pavilion had a problem now.
There was no way to return to the heaven realm directly using teleportation talismans.
“They don’t seem to be the same. Could it be that the King Peng City doesn’t have a stronghold in the heavenly court?” Lu Xuan really didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at the thoughts of some people.
However, he immediately thought that it was very likely that the teleportation formation of King Peng City might also have some minor problems at the critical moment.
“But since they are all targeting me, then I should also meet them!”
Lu Xuan said with a smile. After a month, no matter how naive the legendary geniuses were, they knew that Lu Xuan could not be provoked.
At the very least, among the peak gold immortals, Lu Xuan could be said to be invincible.
After all, there was a limit to the number of plain-headed fools. Even though they were all arrogant, they knew who they could and could not provoke.
Even though many of them instigated to come, their goal was to pin Lu Xuan down in King Peng City so that they could connect with each other.
However, Lu Xuan didn’t care because this was also his plan. When those people were plotting against him, he was also plotting against them.
Whose scheme could win against whom? That wasn’t certain yet!
“It’s best if everyone is present, or else it’ll waste the grand banquet I prepared for them!”
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
“You want to go out? This won’t do!”
Venerable Han Chen hurriedly said. He was specially transferred from the Han family by Venerable Han Lin in order to protect Lu Xuan.
Even now, Venerable Han Lin didn’t trust the people of other families, so he could only choose to trust the Golden Immortal of his family.
After all, the rise of Lu Xuan was a huge problem for many people.
Even within the Great Void Pavilion, not everyone hoped that he could rise!
And Lu Xuan was at his most eye-catching and most vulnerable moment. If he took a step further and became a Golden Immortal, then the number of people who could truly threaten Lu Xuan would drastically decrease.
Among the Golden Immortals, there weren’t many who could threaten Lu Xuan to such an extent.
And many people who were itching for action also understood this logic. This might be the best opportunity to kill Lu Xuan. If not, only Immortal Kings would have such confidence and ability.
Venerable Han Chen naturally didn’t wish for Lu Xuan to leave the city and send himself to his death. But since Lu Xuan insisted on leaving the city, there was simply no way he could stop him.
At this moment, Venerable Han Chen was on the verge of tears. Initially, he was only sent here to protect Lu Xuan for a period of time and to protect him through the most difficult times. When the time comes, the Han family would be able to benefit from this good karma.
As for Venerable Han Chen himself, there was no need to even mention him. If Lu Xuan could truly become an Immortal King in the future, wouldn’t he be able to repay the favour he owed back then?
This was also why many experts were willing to be protectors for young geniuses who could be their descendants. They would be protectors for hundreds or even thousands of years.
Because they were thinking about the future!
Who knew that this legendary genius who was favoured by his clan brother, Venerable Han Lin, actually planned to leave the city to die!
Although there were some problems with the teleportation formation back to the heavenly court, it wouldn’t be like this for long.
With King Peng guarding, no matter how impatient they were, they wouldn’t dare to attack King Peng City. That would be provoking the entire Jin family, and even the entire Half-demon clan.
But if they were outside King Peng City, even King Peng wouldn’t have an excuse to interfere.
And Venerable Han Chen’s idea was to delay and wait for a change.
However, Lu Xuan obviously didn’t approve of this method.
Unable to stop Lu Xuan from leaving the city, Lu Xuan turned into a streak of light and flew into the distance.
Soon, the news of Lu Xuan leaving the city was spread as quickly as possible.
In the darkness of the night, countless people opened their eyes.
“Lu Xuan is finally leaving!”
“Did he think that no one would notice when he left during the night?”
“How naive!”
Countless waves of divine thoughts covered the entire city in an instant.
“What? He actually left the city?”
King Peng, who was in seclusion, revealed a look of shock when he heard the news.
The news of Lu Xuan’s matter had spread like wildfire in the past month. He even knew that some people were secretly plotting to deal with Lu Xuan.
However, he didn’t take it to heart. As long as he was still in charge of King Peng City, no one would dare to be impudent here. This was his confidence.
Moreover, no Immortal King would be able to do such a shameless thing!
To him, Lu Xuan selling him the incomplete Bird King Immortal King Sutra was like a sweet dew after a long drought. There were many things that enlightened him and it was a completely different path.
However, at his level, seeing things was really important. Even if he only saw a little of another path, it was enough to enlighten him greatly.
In this aspect, he had gained quite a bit of advantage. Therefore, it was within his acceptable range to protect Lu Xuan.
Who knew that Lu Xuan would actually court death and leave King Peng City at this time? If he left the city, he would have no excuse or reason to protect Lu Xuan.
He did not understand why Lu Xuan did this, but it was already too late. Lu Xuan had already appeared thousands of miles away in such a short time.
In front of the endless mountains and in the darkness of the night, there seemed to be countless of gigantic creatures lurking in the darkness, staring at the passers-by.
Lu Xuan was also stopped, and the person who stopped him was none other than Nian Hongye.
“Lu Xuan oh Lu Xuan, there’s a road for you to heaven, but you insist on barging into hell!”
Nian Hongye said as he looked at Lu Xuan coldly.
A terrifying light burst out of his eyes.
At this moment, countless of Golden Immortal domains appeared around him, enveloping the surrounding Heaven and Earth and blocking Lu Xuan’s escape route.
Lu Xuan just looked at Nian Hongye indifferently and said, “You really are like a spirit lingering around me, you can still catch me here!”
Nian Hongye sneered and looked at Lu Xuan, saying, “Lu Xuan, do you think that someone will come to save you today? Outside King Peng City, even King Peng has no reason to save you. Today, you will die without a doubt. Even if you have wings, you will not be able to escape!”
