156: Chapter 156 Luo Zhi

Li Yuan continued forward, his gaze scanning the surroundings while also paying attention to the people along the way.

The young Fairy dressed in dark green clothes just now was named Luo Zhi.

At this moment, by her side was another young Fairy, Jiang Wanwei.

Jiang Wanwei looked more mature than Luo Zhi; she was likely a few years older.

Jiang Wanwei was also beautiful, but her beauty was very different from Luo Zhi's.

Luo Zhi was the playful kind of beautiful, while Jiang Wanwei was a cold-faced beauty.

"To win your favor, what does a little danger matter?

Sister Zhi, I told you before, there's no need to be so kind to so many people.

The kinder you are to others, the more improper thoughts they will have about you.

Nowadays, even these nobodies from small Sects have started eyeing you."

Jiang Wanwei spoke softly; even when talking to Luo Zhi, she carried that habitual coldness.

At this moment, in her words, Li Yuan had already become Luo Zhi's suitor.

A young Martial Artist from an unknown Sect shouldn't normally take this route.

Li Yuan, this unfamiliar face who was unwilling to talk about his background, must be from some small power.

Furthermore, Jiang Wanwei had seen Li Yuan's gaze linger on Luo Zhi for quite a while earlier.

With that, she had formed a definitive conclusion about Li Yuan's identity.

Luo Zhi had a very good personality; many people found it pleasant to be around her.

This feeling also led many young men to try every possible way to pursue her.

There was no shortage of young men from ordinary backgrounds with nothing special about them.

But the Sect Luo Zhi belonged to was one of the top two in the Tianqiong Continent.

Luo Zhi was also the granddaughter of a Sect Elder...

There were indeed many men interested in her, but most of those suitors were not worthy of her.

Jiang Wanwei reminded Luo Zhi once again to be more aloof toward those around her.

Remaining so polite, combined with her pretty looks, would only make more young men harbor improper thoughts.

"There's a saying that a beauty fears a persistent man, and many people believe it.

Even though you refuse now, in their eyes, if they show up around you often enough, there will always be a chance."

Hearing Jiang Wanwei's words, Luo Zhi paused and smiled as she replied, "At least this Young Master is quite handsome..."

Hearing Luo Zhi's response, Jiang Wanwei shook her head with some helplessness.

Her Sister Zhi was truly difficult to persuade.

"Sister Wanwei, perhaps others don't have those kinds of thoughts.

Quite a few people know this route into the mountain; Martial Artists from small Sects can also come to try their luck.

It's not right to look at everyone and think they have improper thoughts..."

Luo Zhi's attitude left Jiang Wanwei somewhat helpless.

This was actually true; she couldn't find any solid evidence to say that Li Yuan had come specifically to pursue Luo Zhi.

Continuing toward the heart of Red Moon Mountain, the further they went, the slower everyone's pace became.

That strange suppressing force began to appear.

No matter what rank of the Shenzhen Realm you were, once you stepped into this area, your martial Realm was suppressed to the first rank of the Shenzhen Realm.

Li Yuan could clearly feel this suppression.

This suppression was strange, a situation he had never encountered before.

The crowd who had come seeking an Opportunity all began to feel uneasy.

A sudden drop in strength inevitably brought anxiety.

Dangers that were normally disregarded could very well be life-threatening now.

What Martial Artist wouldn't worry about such potential dangers?

Among Martial Artists who had achieved some success, who wouldn't cherish their life?

Li Yuan's gaze scanned the surroundings, looking at areas that could potentially bring danger.

As that strange suppression arrived, the surrounding essence qi became increasingly thin.

Li Yuan was somewhat used to it; after all, back in the Shun Kingdom, there was no such thing as this so-called essence qi at all.

Furthermore, there was a great advantage for Li Yuan.

The Kunlun Endless Canon Cultivation Technique constructed several Internal Energy storage chambers within his body.

If there was consumption when facing danger, his endurance would far exceed that of others.

Taking this Opportunity, Li Yuan also closely observed the other Martial Artists around him.

Their movement techniques were likely superior to the vast majority of movement techniques in the Shun Kingdom.

But compared to the ones Li Yuan mastered, they weren't much stronger.

The reason Tianqiong Continent Martial Artists were stronger than those from the Shun Kingdom was that their martial Realm improved faster, and their Cultivation Techniques could help them break through the shackle of the ninth rank.

Only after breaking through that shackle could one Cultivate to the Shenzhen Realm.

The deeper they went, the stronger the surrounding suppression became.

Li Yuan had been walking along the edge of the path; he and these Prodigies of the Tianqiong Continent were not the same kind of people to begin with.

If he stayed too close, he feared some people would come to ask about his background again.

He wasn't afraid of them asking, but Li Yuan found it troublesome and didn't care to get involved with them.

While walking, Luo Zhi, not far away, hesitated for a moment before walking over to Li Yuan's side again.

"Young Master, there are some immeasurable dangers in these outer edge areas.

It's better to return to the established path.

The further we go into the heartland, the more our martial Realm will be suppressed..."

Luo Zhi spoke as before, advising Li Yuan not to walk on the edge anymore.

Li Yuan wasn't very clear about the potential dangers on this path.

He wasn't sure if she was genuinely well-intentioned or if she had some other motive.

Regardless, for now, he couldn't see any ill intent from her.

"Thank you for the reminder, Fairy. I will be careful."

Li Yuan thanked her, and they both maintained proper decorum.

Luo Zhi nodded and went back.

Beside her, Jiang Wanwei shook her head with some helplessness. "If he dares to walk on that line, he should bear the corresponding risks.

You shouldn't have reminded him at all; it wasn't necessary."

"What if... he really just took the wrong path..."

Luo Zhi replied softly; she tended to look on the bright side of things.

Hearing this, Jiang Wanwei couldn't help but reach out and tap her on the forehead.

"I wouldn't be surprised at all if you were tricked away by some young man from a small Sect.

When that happens, I don't know how angry Grandpa Luo will be."

Luo Zhi seemed to feel a bit guilty. "I just think it would be a pity to lose one's life in vain on this road..."

At the same time, Li Yuan, who had walked to the outer edge of the path, suddenly noticed some movement by his side.

A vine suddenly shot out from a hidden area.

Along with the vine came cluster after cluster of dust.

This dust might be the tiny seeds of the vine.

It suddenly shot out like this, carrying so much dust.

This dust was definitely one of its attack methods!

Li Yuan's movements were swift, instantly using his movement technique.

Even so, that dust still got onto his body.

The tiny particles tried to enter his body through his nose and mouth.

But at that moment, the Lotus Physique Li Yuan had obtained displayed an astonishing purification ability.

These substances that damaged the body were swallowed up as soon as they seeped in.

That wasn't all; after the vine suddenly shot out, many of the surrounding plants actually started moving as well!

The low grass that should have been trampled by humans actually began to counterattack..."
