47: Letter from Dayan Kingdom

Lin Tian smiled and said, "This is what I should do. You are a hero of our Lingxiao Sect. If we can't even protect you, it will disheartened the Disciples."

Afterward, everyone left the Sunset Forest and returned to the Lingxiao Sect.

Upon returning to the Lingxiao Sect, Lu Xingchen immediately went to find Lin Wanqing.

Having been away from the Lingxiao Sect for so long, he really missed his beautiful wife.

Cough cough, soon-to-be wife.

"Miss Wanqing, I'm back!"

Lu Xingchen knocked on Lin Wanqing's door and found that it wasn't closed.

However, he didn't enter rashly, but waited at the doorway.

After a quarter of an hour, there was no sound from inside the door.

Lu Xingchen had a bad premonition and suddenly pushed the door open.

The room was empty, not looking like it was inhabited.

On the table in the living room, Lu Xingchen saw a letter left by Lin Wanqing.

"Big Strong One, by the time you read this letter, I will have already left."

"Congratulations on becoming the Saint of the Lingxiao Sect. This trip to the Chuyuan Secret Realm must have been fruitful. But I've realized that your pace is too fast, and I can no longer keep up."

"My love for you will not be like a climbing trumpet creeper, borrowing your tall branches to show off, but rather, I should stand with you as a tree."

"You have found your suitable path, and I, too, should go find my own path. I hope that when we meet again, you can bring me another surprise. We will meet at the peak!"

The letter had few words, but Lu Xingchen read his wife's confidence and self-reliance from it.

He sighed softly and tucked the letter into his embrace.

Just as his wife said, the Tianyuan Continent is vast, and sooner or later, the two of them would meet again.

Meeting at the peak was not necessarily an impossible thing.

After Lin Wanqing left, Lu Xingchen began to study the method for refining Earth Fiend Puppets.

If he could have a few more free helpers, his future path would be much smoother.

However, Lu Xingchen discovered that to refine a Puppet in the Great Martial Master Realm, he needed at least the cultivation of a Third-Rank Alchemist.

So Lu Xingchen shut himself in his room to practice Alchemy, constantly improving his proficiency.

Ten days later, he finally advanced to a Third-Rank Alchemist.

Then, using the Materials obtained from selling Medicinal Pills and Qin Tian's corpse, Lu Xingchen refined his first Puppet.

The Realm of this Puppet was the same as Qin Tian's during his lifetime, a Three-Star Great Martial Master, which was a good help.

Lu Xingchen, as described in the scroll, left his Soul Imprint on the Earth Fiend Puppet.

This way, unless the Puppet was forcibly destroyed by external forces or he himself was killed, the Puppet would always serve him.

Of course, the more Puppets, the better.

But the corpses of Great Martial Master Realm experts were hard to find.

Although he had killed many Great Martial Masters before, he hadn't yet obtained the method for refining Earth Fiend Puppets at that time, and all the corpses had been destroyed by him.

To refine more Earth Fiend Puppets, he would have to go and kill Great Martial Masters himself.

Just as Lu Xingchen was having a headache, Wang Dongxuan suddenly knocked on his door.

Lu Xingchen hurriedly put away the Earth Fiend Puppet and opened the door.

"Senior Sister Dongxuan, is something the matter?"

Wang Dongxuan said in a deep voice, "Junior Brother Lu, the Sect Master is looking for you. Go to the deliberation hall quickly!"

Hearing this, Lu Xingchen was a little puzzled.

Why would the Sect Master be looking for him?

Did he regret it and want the hunyuan umbrella back?

That couldn't be.

He was quite happy during the exchange.

Lu Xingchen nodded heavily: "Okay, I'll go right away!"

In the deliberation hall, Sect Master Lin Tian had been waiting for a long time.

Lu Xingchen went straight to the point: "May I ask why the Sect Master is looking for me?"

Lin Tian said in a deep voice, "There's a letter here from the Dayan Kingdom, Lu Xingchen, you should read it first."

Hearing this, Lu Xingchen was startled.

With his father's personality, he would definitely support his Cultivation with all his might and wouldn't disturb him casually.

If he sent a letter, something big must have happened in the Dayan Kingdom.

Was it good news or bad news?

Lu Xingchen took the letter and began to read it.

"Lu Xingchen, I am King Xiao Long, the Dayan Kingdom is in danger!"

"Half a month ago, the Fengming Kingdom suddenly launched a war against our country. Their military strength increased several times overnight, and many Martial Dao experts appeared in their army."

"General Lu Chaoyang held the Mountain Gate, but the disparity in strength between the enemy and us was too great. Our front-line army was defeated, and the General was captured by the Fengming Kingdom."

"Lu Xingchen, Xiao Yue and I have lost contact. You are the only hope of the Dayan Kingdom. If you are doing well in the Lingxiao Sect, could you please ask the Lingxiao Sect to send Disciples to reinforce the Dayan Kingdom?"

"Please return to the country as soon as possible to help. Without General Lu, I don't know how much longer I can hold on!"

After reading the letter, Lu Xingchen's face was extremely grim.

"Sect Master, have you read the content of this letter?"

Lin Tian nodded slightly: "I've read it. Your father was captured, and his life is at stake, so I immediately called you here."

"May I ask if the Lingxiao Sect can step forward to help?"

Lin Tian shook his head.

"No. In the Tianyuan Continent, Sects and Dynasties check and balance each other. According to the regulations of the Righteous Path Alliance, major Sects are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of Dynasties. No matter how Dynasties change, it has nothing to do with the Righteous Path Alliance."

"Although I really want to help you, the Lingxiao Sect is only a Third-Grade Sect and cannot withstand the pressure of the Righteous Path Alliance."

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly: "I understand. In that case, Sect Master, I'll return to my country first!"

"Act within your capabilities. Lu Xingchen, your potential is great, and your future achievements will be far more than just one country or one city. If things are impossible, mention the name of the Lingxiao Sect. Although I cannot protect the Dayan Kingdom, I can still protect you alone."

Lu Xingchen said in a deep voice, "Understood! Sect Master, we part ways here. Please return the Saint position to Senior Brother Hu Junfeng."

"These are all minor matters. Your life is the major matter of the Lingxiao Sect."

Lu Xingchen stopped speaking, turned around, and returned to Little Bamboo Peak, packing his belongings in his room.

For ordinary Martial Artists, it takes three days to travel from the Dayan Kingdom to the Lingxiao Sect.

Who knows how much land the Dayan Kingdom had lost during these three days.

But there was no need to say, the situation was definitely more serious than Xiao Long described in the letter.

He didn't have much time to delay.

When Lu Xingchen arrived at the Mountain Gate, he found that the other six Chief Disciples and Lin Qingzhu were waiting for him.

Lu Xingchen was slightly stunned: "Why are you here?"

Hu Junfeng said softly, "Junior Brother Lu, the Sect Master has already told us about the situation. We came to see you off."

Lu Xingchen's heart warmed, and he smiled: "Thank you all! Don't worry, I will definitely return safely."

Lin Qingzhu handed a Storage Ring to Lu Xingchen.

"Lu Xingchen, this ring contains the Pill Formulas for almost all third-rank pills. I hope it can help you."

He was already a Third-Rank Alchemist, so these Pill Formulas would come in handy.

At a critical moment, Lu Xingchen didn't feign modesty and accepted the Storage Ring.

"Thank you, Peak Master!"
