A small casual cultivator!

Chapter 992 Old Friend

However, the demon cultivator just looked at him expressionlessly and said nothing.

Seeing this, Lu Luan didn't ask any more questions.

The person is already in his hands, and he is not interested in these things.

No longer entangled, with a thought, he ended the life of the demon cultivator.

No matter what, he cannot escape death. For Lu Luan, death or immortality does not really matter much. As long as he has a soul, the sect can still know the information they want.

"I hate it."

The demon cultivator's life faded away, and his soul slowly left his body.

But now, it's useless to feel resentful.

He didn't understand enough about how powerful Yuanying masters were.

Perhaps capturing some Jindan sword cultivators in the early and middle stages of the Jindan realm would not attract the attention of Yuanying powerhouses.

As the demon cultivator died, the beads began to loosen up on their own.

Lu Luan's soul was thrown into the bead and he found a huge formation inside the bead. Inside the formation, more than three hundred figures were imprisoned.

“So many sword cultivators.”

Lu Luan was surprised. All of the more than 300 people there were sword cultivators, and among them, there were even more than 100 magic sword cultivators.

After a quick glance, everyone inside was still alive, but was restrained by a force and unable to move. These sword cultivators formed three circles around the center of the formation. The outer layer was those in the early Jindan stage, about two hundred people, the middle layer was in the middle Jindan stage, and the innermost layer was in the late Jindan stage. Eight sword cultivators in the late Jindan stage had already been captured.

Seeing that he was still alive, Lu Luan breathed a sigh of relief.

So he hurried on his way and decided to deal with it after returning to Haoyue City.

Half an hour later, the two arrived.

"Elder Lu, I'll go back first."

In the city, Elder Wang bowed and said.

At his age, he has no interest in many things. Now that he has helped find the person, he should go back to work on his own inheritance mark.

"Elder Wang, walk slowly."

After they bowed to each other, Elder Wang returned to his residence first.

Lu Luan also came to the Elders' Hall of Haoyue City.

"Elder Lu, have you caught the murderer?" Seeing him coming, Mo Yunqin and Hu Hong, who were busy in the hall, immediately came over.

There are also several true elders here.

Looking at Lu Luan's expression, I knew he had succeeded. I was very surprised that he had only been out for more than an hour.

Lu Luan nodded and threw out the soul and body of the demon cultivator.

"It's only the late Jindan stage."

Seeing the demon cultivator, Mo Yunqin was even more surprised.

Lu Luan took the cauldron and the beads in his hand: "This demon cultivator used this cauldron to refine some special things and cooperated with the formation plate to succeed."

Then he said to Black Pearl, "All the captured sword cultivators are inside. This treasure is great. I must kill him before I can find out what's inside."

He did not take out the other things of the demon cultivator. The sect has an unwritten rule that when exorcising demons, one must obtain things. Except for those with strong demonic nature that must be handed over to the sect for disposal, the rest that are useful for one's own practice can be kept by oneself.

Both the beads and the alchemy cauldron are evil objects.

"Is everyone all right?"

Mo Yunqin asked as he observed.

"All lives are safe."

Hu Hong frowned and said, "With so many sword cultivators, this demon cultivator should be trying to use them to impact the Nascent Soul realm."

Now it seems that this is the only use.

Mo Yunqin used his power to release all the cultivators in the beads.

More than three hundred figures suddenly appeared in the Elders' Hall.

Among these sword cultivators, a considerable number may have been captured for too long, and their true energy and sword intent have been completely consumed, making them extremely weak, and many of them are even hanging on by a thread.

Among these figures, in addition to the demon cultivators, there are even a few transformed monsters. It seems that the demon cultivator has put a lot of thought into capturing so many sword cultivators.

Sword cultivators who can transform into monsters are basically only found in the Qionghai area.

This guy must have traveled to the outer realm, the fairy realm, and the demon realm.

"Are we saved?"

"Where is this?"

"What about the devil?"

"I have been trapped for seventy years, and I have finally escaped. God has mercy on me."

"It's the elder of Haoyue Sect. Great! We are really saved."

After coming out, everyone was confused at first, then ecstatic, and some old people even burst into tears.

Among these people, the longest time they were imprisoned was over a hundred years!

Those sword cultivators in the late Jindan stage quickly recognized the identities of the elders around them and were overjoyed.

However, those imprisoned demon cultivators could not be happy at all.

"Thank you all for the rescue."

The sword cultivators who were still able to move knelt down to express their gratitude to everyone.

"My fellow Taoists, it was Elder Lu from the Haoyue Sect who saved you across several continents. If you want to thank someone, then thank him."

After imprisoning all the demonic cultivators, Mo Yunqin stood beside Lu Luan and said.

Everyone knelt towards Lu Luan and said gratefully, "Thank you, Senior Lu."

"My fellow Taoists, please stand up and talk first."

Lu Luan didn't like people kneeling to him.

"Senior Lu, your great kindness..."

They were so enthusiastic that Lu Luan could hardly handle it.

These sword cultivators were given new life and were filled with gratitude to him. They had originally been in complete despair and never expected that one day they would be rescued.

"Elder Lu, if you have nothing else to ask, I will let these fellow Taoists go down to recuperate first."

After a while, Mo Yunqin said to him.

"Ah."

Lu Luan nodded.

Then Mo Yunqin said to everyone: "My fellow Taoists, I will ask someone to take you to recuperate first. If it is convenient for the seriously injured Taoists, please tell me your life story. I will send someone to send a message to your forces and come to pick you up."

"Thank you, senior."

Everyone quickly thanked him.

After a while, those who were still able to move were sent away.

There were only about forty sword cultivators left in the Elder Hall. They were all unconscious. They were in the early stage of Golden Core and it seemed that they had been sealed for who knows how long.

"The situation of these people is not optimistic." Hu Hong frowned.

The remaining people have suffered severe physical injuries, and it will cost a lot to recover.

"Let's find a way to wake them up first."

Mo Yunqin said.

Although it will cost some resources, we can just let the forces behind these people provide them.

"What is the origin of that demon cultivator? He is in the late Jindan stage and has so many treasures and methods."

"We'll know after searching his soul later."

Several elders of Haoyue Sect were talking there.

"Um...what?"

Lu Luan glanced at the remaining people, and when he saw the black-clothed figures among them, he was stunned.

So I walked up to take a closer look.

This is a middle-aged swordsman with several cracks on his chest that have not yet healed completely, and the vitality in his body is very weak.

"Brother Jian?"

This person looked very similar to someone he remembered.

"It's really him."

After a careful inspection, Lu Luan confirmed that this person was Jian Xuan. No wonder he hadn't returned to Jianyang Sect for decades. It turned out that he was imprisoned by the evil cultivator at some point in time.

"Elder Lu, what's wrong?"

Elders such as Hu Hong saw that he looked strange, so they came up to ask him.

Lu Luan looked at Jian Xuan and said, "This man was a junior fellow apprentice of mine when I was in Zhengyang Sect."

"It turns out to be an old friend of Elder Lu!"

The elders were very surprised.

Lu Luan carefully checked Jian Xuan's injuries, which were more serious than he had imagined. The golden elixir in his Huangting was dim and even had a few cracks spreading. If it weren't for the sharp sword energy inside, it would have been completely shattered.

"Ugh."

Seeing this miserable scene, Lu Luan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He knew that independent cultivators like Jian Xuan who had no power to rely on had a very difficult life. They could only rely on themselves to do everything, bit by bit. With no one to protect them, they were on the edge of danger every day. They were both hunters and prey to others.

In fact, before joining the Haoyue Sect, Lu Luan's life was not much better. He himself could not remember how many dangerous times he had experienced. If he had failed at any one time, or had been a little less lucky, he would be doomed now.
