Chapter 55 Lurking
“There are still many people who have survived, and I don’t know where they are hiding. The mortals in this world of immortality really live in the cracks.
It's really too miserable, but the sect is still protecting this situation.
If I hadn't been picked up by Master, I probably wouldn't know whether I was dead or alive right now. "
Standing on the spirit boat, Lu Xuan looked at the crowd below.
I saw amidst the ruins, men, women, old and young gathered together, all of them were gray and disheveled.
This reminded him of his fearful life in his early years, and he sighed with emotion.
As the spirit boat landed, Lu Xuan stepped off the boat, and the surviving villagers immediately gathered around him.
"Master Immortal, I've finally waited for you to come!"
"With you here, we in Blackwater Town can be saved!"
"Has the snake demon been killed by you, the Immortal?"
In an instant, Lu Xuan was drowned in all kinds of discussions, and he didn't know which question to answer.
I just feel a headache.
So he could only comfort him first, stretch out his hands, and shout to everyone at the top of his lungs.
"Fellow fellows, don't be afraid! My senior sister and I came from Daoyan Sect just to eliminate this snake monster that is causing trouble.
Let everyone return to their original peaceful life! "
"Shangxian, is that snake demon dead?"
"Why don't you see your senior sister? Did she go after the snake demon?"
"Could it be impossible to kill and let this monster come back?"
However, his comfort didn't seem to have any effect, and everyone still drowned him in saliva.
"Ahem! Everyone, be quiet and let the Immortal take a breath. Ask everyone randomly and let the Immortal answer which one is best?"
At this time, an old voice came from the crowd, shaking the noisy questions.
Then the villagers surrounding Lu Xuan took the initiative to move aside, clearing a path.
".You are the mayor, right?"
Lu Xuan looked at the white-haired but red-faced old man in front of him and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Through aura detection, this old man turned out to be a monk at the ninth level of Qi training, who was almost able to build a foundation!
No wonder their mental outlook is different from the others.
Looking at the strong and tall figure, he is not at all what he should be at his age.
In a small town like this with few resources, it stands to reason that being able to reach the ninth level of Qi training is considered a good talent and should have been absorbed long ago.
And for this old man, even if he just goes to the sect to be an outer disciple, it will be more prosperous and safer than being a mayor here.
Could it be that the mayor encountered something unexpected in his later years? Picked up a treasure of heaven and earth, or a magic tool that a monk had stored after his death?
"I've been waiting for you for so long, and finally I've got you here. If it were any later, I'm afraid the entire Blackwater Town would be completely destroyed.
I am here to thank the immortal for the whole town! "
Suddenly, the mayor held up his hands and bowed deeply to Lu Xuan, pulling him back from his divergent thoughts.
"Don't worry, Mayor, my senior sister and I are here to eliminate demons, which is also our duty. Blackwater Town is protected by Daoyan Sect.
Unfortunately, if we encounter monsters running rampant, it is only right that we come to help. "Lu Xuan quickly helped him up. He couldn't bear it. He felt a little awkward being bowed down by the mayor of his grandfather's generation.
In fact, immortal cultivators have a transcendent status among mortals. It can basically be said that they get wind when they want it and rain when they want it.
As long as the spiritual pressure is released a little, ordinary people will have no resistance and will feel fear. He doesn't need to be so humble.
But after Lu Xuan traveled through time, he was basically closed off from the outside world, and he never realized the oppression that this kind of personal power brought to other people.
And he has always accepted Fan Qianyue's careful teachings to him, coupled with the core socialist values accepted in his previous life, so his mind has not been distorted.
"You are so polite, Immortal. I would like to take the liberty to ask, what realms are your senior sister and you in?
The monsters this time are really powerful, and I am afraid that something might happen to the two Immortals."
Seeing that Lu Xuan was easier to talk to, the mayor became bolder and asked more important questions.
"Mayor, you don't have to worry, my senior sister is a swordsman at the peak of Yuanying. She almost killed the snake demon with just two sword strikes.
Let it run away in a hurry. As for me, who is in the middle stage of the golden elixir, although I can't defeat the monster, I can still do the logistics. "
When Lu Xuan heard this, he was not wary and directly told the mayor in front of him.
The main reason is that he has nothing to defend against, even if there is really some evil intention against him among a group of mayors who have no cultivation or foundation building.
It's just a joke.
"One Nascent Soul and one Golden Pill. It seems that the sect really pays attention to it. The information reported by the old man is indeed useful."
Hearing this, the mayor's eyes flashed. Sure enough, even the big sects were very concerned about the emergence of the spirit mine.
"What news? Mayor, didn't you just send a message asking for help? Did you send something else?"
Hearing this, Lu Xuan was a little puzzled. The mission report he received didn't say anything else.
It was just a few words, explaining the location of the town, mentioning the reward of the mission, and then it was gone.
"Shangxian, you don't know?"
The old man was very surprised, but soon his expression returned to calm, with a thoughtful look on his face and his brows furrowed.
"What exactly happened? The sect really didn't say anything. Mayor, you can tell me directly."
Lu Xuan was also a little confused. The sect seemed to be hiding something about this mission. Could it be that it was not as simple as it seemed on the surface?
".It's better to wait until another immortal arrives. It's useless to tell you now."
After the mayor was silent for a while, he chose to wait for Ling Xiao to come over before discussing. In his opinion, strength is the most important thing in the world of immortality.
Among the two people, the one who can make up his mind must be the sword cultivator at the peak of Nascent Soul. When the time comes, he will explain the matter of the spirit mine to her.
Maybe there is still room for maneuver. The future of the entire town depends on this mine, if the sect takes it.
At that time, the townspeople will only be able to dig mines for the monks there, and they will still live in fear.
He must strive to make use of this mineral vein and find a way to cultivate a few more immortal cultivators for the town.
Just as the old man was thinking, a girl with black hair and black eyes lurked in the crowd, waiting for an opportunity to make a move.
Those eyes were staring at Lu Xuan, with a vicious murderous intention hidden deep in his eyes.
The two people on the spirit boat just now almost chopped it to death if they hadn't reacted quickly and released their own magical powers.
By now my head had fallen off.
'Tsk, if I didn't have to continue to complete your mission, I would just kill this man to vent my anger and run away. ’
