Sea of Chaos, Inland Sea, Two Islands.
Within the sect's teleportation array, after a burst of white light flashed, a figure appeared.
On her shoulder was a large black sword.
This big sword was obviously very heavy, making it difficult for her to move around.
As for her figure, she was originally quite tall, but against the backdrop of this big sword, she seemed a little smaller.
When the Neihai monks on duty at the teleportation array saw her, they all hurriedly bowed their hands and said, "Greetings to Master Lu."
"Um."
Lu Yan nodded to them indifferently, continued to carry the heavy sword she had just obtained from Elder Shen of Wanyan Sect's Qi Feng, and flew towards the city lord's palace.
After Lu Yan left, the monks who were still on duty began to whisper:
"Hey, Master Lu, why is she back again?"
"Yes, I heard before that after returning to Wanyan Sect, Master Lu will never return to the inner sea again."
"Hey! Look what you said, isn't it a good thing that Master Lu can continue to come back to our inland sea?"
"That's right, with her here, our inner sea will be safer."
"That's right, that's right, haha——"
When these few people reached this point, someone else sighed: "Oh -, it would be better if Zhenjun Shi Yao is still here."
"Who says it's not—"
Although Lu Yan had flown far away, her consciousness could still capture what the monks on duty said.
When Lu Yan heard that they started talking about Lord Shi Yao, Lu Yan also sighed sadly.
At this time, in the city lord's mansion, Li Jiuzheng sighed to Lin Zhixin:
"Nowadays, you are becoming more and more comfortable in handling inland affairs and other related matters. Some difficult matters are more appropriate according to your means and methods. And your prestige is becoming more and more popular - think about it, you have to It won’t be long before I can pass on the position of city lord of this inner sea to you.”
Hearing this, Lin Zhi's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately cupped his hands and said anxiously: "City Lord, I, I just want to share your worries, I don't want to be the City Lord -"
Li Jiu shook his head. Before he could answer, Lu Yan had already arrived at the city lord's mansion and took the initiative to explain for Li Jiu:
"Junior brother Lin, you don't have to be so panicked. Ah Jiu is sincerely praising you for what he said."
Hearing this, Lin Zhi's heart immediately relaxed, and he quickly bowed to Lu Yan, "I've met Senior Sister Lu!"
Lu Yan waved her hand, indicating that he didn't need to be polite.
When Li Jiu saw Lu Yan, he was surprised and said: "Hey, Senior Sister Lu, why are you back again?"
When Lu Yan heard what Li Jiu said, she said, "Why, I can't come to your city lord's mansion now?"
Boom!
Lu Yan gently put the heavy sword on her shoulder on the ground, and there was a heavy muffled sound, which made Li Jiu and Lin Zhi stunned for a while.
So, Li Jiu waved his hand to Lin Zhi, indicating that he should leave first.
Lin Zhiwei nodded and silently exited the City Lord's Mansion.
Li Jiu then stood up and said worriedly to Lu Yan:
"Senior sister, you have been practicing in this inner sea for many years. I think your state of mind has improved a lot. And the spiritual energy of this inner sea is thin. If you continue to stay here for a long time, it may not be good for your practice. …”
Lu Yan dragged the heavy sword for a few steps, found a random place to sit down, and then said:
"Half a year ago, I returned to the sect. I originally wanted to stay in Jianfeng for a few years to meditate, or to be in seclusion for a period of time. However, after I stayed in the sect for a few months, I became more and more aware of the reality. It's really boring. After thinking about it, I still think it would be more interesting to go back to the inland sea."
Hearing this, Li Jiu shook his head and sighed:
"What's interesting or boring? I think you just can't let go of Neihai."
Lu Yan did not deny it, but just smiled, "If I really don't come back, can you alone control this entire inland sea?"
Lu Yan's words are really heartbreaking and true.
Li Jiu was a simple and honest man. Even though he had become the city lord and had been in charge of the general affairs of the Inland Sea for many years, his temperament had not changed.
But with such a temperament, he would have been able to be the city lord of the inner sea safely when Yao Zhenjun would personally sit in and support him.
However, after Lord Yao Zhen left, Li Jiu's situation became more and more embarrassing.
There is no other reason, just because in this world, the strong have always been respected, and the voice of the weak naturally has to be weaker.
Nowadays, because of the "Blood Qi Body Forging Art" in Inner Sea, most of the monks' cultivation levels are improving day by day. And the alchemy monks in Inner Sea who practice "Blood Qi Body Forging Art" can naturally also use their own cultivation skills. To improve again and again.
However, Li Jiu is a formation master, and he only wants to follow the path of formation. This has never changed.
However, without the guidance of an expert on the art of formation, and no one to discuss and communicate with him regularly, no matter how talented Li Jiu is, he will not be able to make any progress.
In this way, after so many years, Li Jiu's cultivation is still at the early stage of pill formation.
Now, even Lin Zhi's cultivation level is about to surpass that of Li Jiu.
Although the monks in the Inland Sea are quite united when facing foreign enemies, they are not without any fights on weekdays and in private.
The strong are respected, the weak are ants - this has never changed in the entire world of immortality, no matter when or where.
Therefore, what Li Jiu said to Lin Zhi today was indeed what he said from the bottom of his heart: The position of city lord of the Inner Sea can only be passed on to someone who has the ability, means, and higher cultivation level to continue to maintain the stability of the Inner Sea. .
However, after hearing what Lu Yan said, Li Jiudang felt guilty and said, "I am the one who has dragged down Senior Sister."
"Hi!" Lu Yan stood up, lifted the heavy sword on the ground again, and said:
"If you are really grateful to me, then give me the remaining piece of meteorite in your hand."
In fact, Li Jiu had more than one meteorite in his hand, and Lu Yan only found out about this after getting a piece of meteorite from Li Jiu's hand.
Li Jiu watched Lu Yan put the heavy sword on her shoulder again, and said curiously: "Senior sister, I see that it is already very difficult for you to hold this sword, why are you still thinking about my last piece of meteorite? "
Hearing this, Lu Yan sighed helplessly: "It's not because of Elder Shen——"
Half a year ago, Lu Yan received a communication talisman from her master, saying: Elder Shen has been released from seclusion, and it took several years to finally refine her sword again.
As a result, Lu Yan, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately happily returned to the sect in the teleportation array and went to Qi Peak to get the sword.
However, when Lu Yan hurried to Qi Peak, Elder Shen suddenly said:
"No, this sword, this weight, is not perfect enough, it's not even good enough.", and refused to let Lu Yan take it away without saying anything.
