19: Meet Wu Qiankun again!

"Why are you yelling so loudly!"

Meng Yun's head buzzed, and he immediately placed it on the ground.

The little fox seemed very intelligent.

After a brief moment of losing composure, it became embarrassed again, trembling behind the tree, peeking its head out to look at Meng Yun from time to time.

Feeling the faint spiritual aura emanating from the little fox, Meng Yun was momentarily lost in thought.

This white fox should be an auspicious beast blessed with great fortune, and in some ways, it could weaken and counteract the bad luck he brought.

Walking alone, Meng Yun felt quite bored, so he simply squatted down:

"Little one, do you want to come with me?"

He pointed to the scattered roasted meat nearby: "Things like this, you can have as much as you want."

The little fox instantly showed an extremely human-like look of joy.

Squeak!

Roasted meat!!

It barely hesitated before darting out from behind the tree.

Even a second of hesitation would be disrespectful to the roasted meat!

Its unreserved appearance made Meng Yun chuckle.

Seeing its hind leg limping, Meng Yun felt a slight pang in his heart, and he took out common tools from his small bag, preparing to bandage it.

"Since you're going to follow me, you have to listen to me. You must endure the pain."

Meng Yun sat on the ground, placed the little fox on his lap, and patiently trimmed the fur from its hind leg.

After cleaning the wound and bandaging it with good wound medicine, Meng Yun only then realized that from start to finish, the little fox hadn't struggled at all.

It was incredibly obedient.

It clearly knew what Meng Yun was doing!

"You little one, you're quite clever. From now on, I'll call you Linglong."

"Linglong ~" Meng Yun held the fox by its armpits with both hands, making it look at him directly.

The little fox, shy and timid, let out a soft squeak.

After feeding Linglong a little more, Meng Yun placed it on his shoulder and walked out of the mountains.

[You verified the terrifying power of the Sky Fiend Lone Star on the bandits, and decided to avoid getting involved with people as much as possible in the future.]

[You rescued a white fox from the bandits' belongings and named it Linglong. Under your careful nurturing, Linglong's body gradually recovered, its fur became increasingly shiny and smooth, and its gaze towards you became increasingly reliant.]

[You endured wind and dew, traveled by night and rested by day, heading north. Several months passed in the blink of an eye. As winter arrived, heavy snow covered the northern region, and you successfully reached the outskirts of Tianyang City. Further north lies Zhenyang Pass.]

[You have broken through to After Heaven Peak, becoming the strongest among humans. However, you keenly sense that under the dual effects of the Sky Fiend Lone Star and Sword Heart Comprehension, the Demon Seed seal imposes no restrictions on your breakthrough. You yearn for a trial to find an opportunity to step into the Xiantian realm.]

[Linglong has completely trusted you, showing immense affection.]

"Tianyang City..." Meng Yun wore a large cloak, and the little fox burrowed into his chest, only its nose and eyes peeking out.

Meng Yun looked at the towering city gate, feeling a surge of emotion.

Recalling the first simulation, Meng Yun was still fighting for his life as his lifespan dwindled to zero.

Even Martial Universe Qiankun, who dominated all heroes, was killed in one blow under his innate divine strength.

He didn't cause much of a stir.

It felt like just yesterday.

In this life, arriving twelve years early, what was Martial Universe Qiankun doing now?

Had he already become a demon?

With these thoughts, he whispered to the little fox Linglong: "Come on, Linglong, let's enter the city."

He lifted his foot, about to step through the city gate.

"Stop!" A city guard immediately blocked him.

"Where's your travel permit?"

As a beggar, Meng Yun's limit was raising two chickens; how could he possibly have a travel permit?

"If I don't have one, can't I enter?" Meng Yun retorted.

"If you don't have one, get lost! The border isn't peaceful lately, so don't cause trouble!" The city guard was quite impatient.

"Hiss—!!!"

The little fox Linglong darted out from Meng Yun's cloak, baring its teeth at the city guard.

Its aggressive display startled the city guard.

"Alright, alright." Meng Yun patted its head, offering comfort.

Meng Yun glanced at the city guard, lightly tapped his toes on the ground, and directly leaped dozens of meters high, soaring over the city wall and disappearing into the city.

After Heaven Peak was equivalent to a cultivator at Foundation Establishment Peak. Although he couldn't fly with spiritual energy yet, mere light qigong was no longer an issue.

Ignoring the shocked gazes of the common people, Meng Yun went straight towards the Prince's Mansion.

He wanted to see if Zhenyang Prince had already become a demon.

If he still had, he wouldn't mind killing him again.

Silently, Meng Yun opened the Prince's Mansion gate, and all the soldiers he encountered along the way were knocked unconscious by his internal energy.

Being unconscious was far better than dying.

He stepped deeper into the courtyard, where four After Heaven Peak masters ambushed him simultaneously.

Meng Yun's eyes were calm, a wooden sword moved as if an extension of his arm, and soaring sword qi illuminated the night sky.

Bang bang bang bang.

Four figures fell to the ground, groaning in pain, unable to rise again.

Even against four After Heaven Peak masters, Meng Yun still suppressed them in one move!

"Squeak squeak!" Linglong, nestled in Meng Yun's arms, let out excited chirps.

The two of us are absolutely dominating!

"Who are you? So young, yet so formidable!" A young man, slightly older than Meng Yun, looked at Meng Yun with a look of surprise and uncertainty.

"Meng Yun."

"So it's Brother Meng," the young man relaxed slightly when he saw Meng Yun was willing to communicate: "I am Wu He, and my father is..."

Before he could finish, Meng Yun frowned: "You are Wu He?"

Meng Yun then carefully examined him, noting that although his features were still youthful, he indeed resembled the adult Wu He from the previous simulation.

He confirmed the look in his eyes; it was the person he wanted to beat up.

Meng Yun's body moved so fast that it left afterimages. Before the latter could react, he had already kicked his opponent's backside, sending Wu He tumbling and rolling ten meters away.

If Wu He hadn't been a martial cultivator, that kick would probably have left him barely breathing.

After his initial daze, Wu He yelled in pain: "Do you know who I am?! Even my father, Martial Universe Qiankun, has never hit me!"

Martial Universe Qiankun?

It's precisely Martial Universe Qiankun's son I'm hitting!

Below Xiantian, it's like slaughtering chickens; above Xiantian, it's a one-for-one trade!

Meng Yun wasn't afraid at all.

"Oh? Then should I be nicer to you?" Meng Yun said with a half-smile.

Other than the little fox Linglong, the last person who received his 'kindness' had grave grass two zhang high.

"No, no..." Seeing his smile, like an evil gardenia, Wu He quickly shook his head and scrambled to his feet.

"Dad, Dad! He hit me!" As soon as Wu He got up, he quickly looked behind Meng Yun.

Meng Yun had already sensed something and turned around.

The person who arrived was none other than Zhenyang Prince, Martial Universe Qiankun, dressed in casual clothes!

Compared to what he had seen in the previous two simulations, Martial Universe Qiankun at this moment was clearly in his prime, with piercing eyes and a powerful, muscular build.

"Meng Yun?" Martial Universe Qiankun's gaze was deep; his intuition told him that the young man before him was unfathomably strong.

"May I ask, young friend, why you have come here?" Martial Universe Qiankun did not mention Meng Yun's forced entry into the city or his trespassing into the Prince's Mansion, clearly dismissing it lightly.

"Dad, he hit me!!"

After all, he was still a young man, and Wu He shouted.

"You're not as skilled, now go back to your room and reflect!" Martial Universe Qiankun roared, directly sending Wu He away.

This action was exactly like Martial Universe Qiankun's retreat from Wu He in the imperial palace during the last simulation.

Regardless of Martial Universe Qiankun's character, he was ultimately a loving father.

"I just came to see if you had become a demon." Meng Yun said calmly.

These words, falling into Martial Universe Qiankun's ears, made his eyes darken slightly.

Meng Yun secretly accumulated strength in his hand, ready for Martial Universe Qiankun to suddenly attack.

"Hahahahahahaha, where did young friend hear such rumors?" Martial Universe Qiankun laughed loudly, his expression normal.

"Is that so? Then why do I smell raw meat from your mouth?"

Meng Yun shook his head, a wooden sword in his hand.

It seemed he was still too late.

Since there's no saving him, then die.
