"A song, yes, there is a song that might solve our current predicament."
In the present-day Mufeng City, battles rage everywhere; the county government office, inns, restaurants... have all been completely destroyed.
Many experts at the Innate Realm were killed by sneak attacks.
If a way to break this deadlock is not found soon, Lu Tao and the Immortal Sect will face annihilation.
At that moment, Lu Tao thought of a song from China.
"I hope it will succeed."
Lu Tao felt a little uneasy, and began to sing softly, "The smoke of war rises, the land... hatred runs wild, long sword... horses gallop south, people go north... the great cause must be celebrated by all sides!"
[Song (Untitled): 0/100 (A fine song, a patriotic song with excellent lyrics and imagery, possessing a touch of sophistication that stirs the listener's blood and ignites their patriotic fervor.)]
"good!"
Lu Tao couldn't help but clench his fist and mutter to himself, "Name it 'Loyalty to the Country'."
"The smoke signals rise... the smoke signals rise... the smoke signals rise..."
Lu Tao flew back to his Immortal Sect while gaining experience.
Upon returning to the Immortal Sect, Lu Tao hurriedly called out, "Everyone, come here!"
"Yes, Sect Master!"
All the disciples of the Immortal Sect rushed over, looking at Lu Tao with anxious expressions.
They knew that Lu Tao had gathered everyone either to lead them on a runaway mission or because he needed their help, with the latter being more likely.
Lu Tao upgraded and added points to "Loyalty to the Country," then taught the song to everyone through his Heavenly Eye, saying repeatedly, "Just like when you cultivated your Heavenly Eye before, you don't need to sing the whole song 'Loyalty to the Country' every time. Just sing the three words 'The smoke of war rises.' Don't stop, keep singing."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Everyone accepted the order with serious expressions.
When He Zongming, He Yuanshuang, Wu Tianyou and others recalled the scene when Lu Tao sang "The Horse-Taming Man" and the lyrics of the song Lu Tao had given them, their gloomy mood instantly dissipated like spring flowers blooming.
This song gave them hope.
"The smoke signals rise..."
"The smoke signals rise..."
"The smoke signals rise..."
...
In an instant, the entire Immortal Sect echoed with the song of "Solemn Loyalty to the Country." It only sang three words, but the experience gained from "Solemn Loyalty to the Country" skyrocketed.
Their experience bonus is now not sixteen times, but thirty-two times.
That's right, the Immortal Sect has also been upgraded.
[Immortal Sect: 1 million (Level 5 sect. All sect disciples, including you, will receive a 32x experience bonus when cultivating your self-created techniques and skills.)
The loyalty bonuses for sect members are as follows:
...
Friendly reminder: Disciples with a loyalty level below 50 will not receive any cultivation bonuses.
Lu Tao glanced at the experiences of the Immortal Sect and Serving the Country with Utmost Loyalty, and then continued singing "The Smoke of War Rises" while rushing to the rescue.
"The smoke signals rise..."
puff.
As the war smoke rose, Lu Tao casually dealt with one early-stage Innate Realm cultivator and three perfected Internal Organ Refinement cultivators before flying to the next location.
Mu Feng City was in complete chaos, but he had the Heavenly Eye, which allowed him to see all kinds of auras, including resentment.
These traitors launched a surprise attack in the dead of night, resulting in many people being caught off guard and killed, dying with their eyes wide open in disbelief and generating a great deal of resentment.
Therefore, Lu Tao was basically able to determine who the traitors and spies were.
If he really couldn't make a judgment, Lu Tao could only leave it for the time being.
"The smoke signals rise..."
laugh.
In a collapsed restaurant, Lu Tao transformed into a shadow, moving at an incredible speed. Before the incredulous eyes of the person at the peak of the Innate Realm, he killed him with a single strike.
He left only a blurry figure in the others, their faces barely visible, but they remembered his voice, "The smoke of war rises."
Then, the person who was rescued immediately shouted.
"Thank you very much, young hero Wolf, for saving my life."
"Thank you, young hero Wolf."
Although they felt strange about their savior who introduced himself beforehand, they had no choice but to express their gratitude for his life-saving act.
"???"
Hearing these words of gratitude while flying in mid-air, Lu Tao paused involuntarily, almost falling off the ground, his mind filled with questions.
"How did I become the Wolf Warrior?"
Lu Tao was somewhat bewildered.
When he sang "The Smoke of War Rises" again to gain experience, he realized what was going on. He was both amused and exasperated, but he didn't waste time explaining.
For Lu Tao now, saving as many people as possible is the best he can do.
While rescuing people, Lu Tao also kept an eye on the experience progress of "Serving the Country with Utmost Loyalty".
"The smoke signals rise..."
Singing, Lu Tao unleashed his full potential using his Earth-Rank Movement Technique, pushing the capabilities of his magical cloth shoes to the limit. His figure rose and fell continuously, entering and exiting one mansion, inn, and restaurant after another...
"The smoke signals rise..."
Pfft, hiss...
Several sounds rang out in succession. Inside a mansion, three innate beings, unwilling to accept their fate, fell to Lu Tao's blade. Without pausing, Lu Tao flew away.
Only the two remaining innate masters of Sunset Mountain and a group of disciples watched Lu Tao's departing figure with complicated expressions.
Fear, lingering fear, disbelief, gratitude, admiration...
A mix of emotions welled up inside him. Despite his severe injuries, the headmaster of Sunset Mountain bowed deeply to Lu Tao's retreating figure, saying, "Thank you, Sect Master Lu, for saving my life."
"Thank you so much, Sect Master Lu, for saving my life!"
The other disciples of Sunset Mountain, including the young man surnamed Shi, also bowed and expressed their gratitude.
They never expected that Lu Tao would come to their rescue at such a time, disregarding past grievances. Such magnanimity made them feel ashamed, but also deeply admire him.
After expressing their gratitude, the people of Sunset Mountain looked on with grief as they watched their fellow disciples, including Elder Shi, die in a sneak attack.
The young man surnamed Shi, in particular, clenched his fists tightly.
His father died saving him.
"Sect Leader, let's go save them too."
The young man surnamed Shi stared at the sect leader with bloodshot eyes. This time, he did not act on his own, but first asked for the sect leader's opinion.
He changed in this sudden turn of events.
Sect Leader Tao was equally grieved. Looking at his fallen comrades, he said with a murderous look, "Let's go, kill the enemy and save them!"
The next moment, Sect Leader Tao led the disciples of Sunset Mountain out of the mansion to rescue the others.
When they came out, they found that groups of people were also emerging from other residences, all of whom were rescued by Lu Tao.
——
Lu Tao felt nothing about saving the people from Sunset Mountain; he simply did it on a whim.
Wherever rescue is needed, he goes to save people, regardless of their cultivation level, social status, or age...
However, Lu Tao was also self-aware, so he did not seek out those powerful masters, but only did what he could.
As he saved more and more people, more and more people thanked him, and the name "Young Wolf Hero" became more and more famous, gradually spreading to more and more distant places.
Some people even shouted out their gratitude as they heard the sounds of thanks coming from all around.
"Young Wolf Warrior, help me!"
"Young Wolf, there is a traitor here."
"Young Wolf Warrior, kill these traitors! They all deserve to die! Kill them!"
And so, Lu Tao seemed to become a summoned god, rushing to the rescue wherever there was a cry for help.
But Lu Tao was very cautious, worried that spies or traitors might take advantage of the situation, pretending to summon him while actually lying in ambush to kill him.
Therefore, whenever Lu Tao went to provide rescue, he would first use his divine sense and heavenly eye to observe the situation. Only after finding no threat would he take action to save the person, and he would never provoke a grandmaster-level expert.
They even avoided it from afar.
Thus, Lu Tao moved through Mufeng City like a ghost, frantically killing those who had betrayed him.
Gradually, those traitors and spies learned that a powerful figure had appeared near Changshun Street, reaping the benefits of their people.
"Kill him! Kill that wolf!"
"Help! Is there any grandmaster who can kill this wolf?"
Unfortunately, these cries for help were useless. Even if someone was at the peak of the Innate Realm, Lu Tao could basically kill them instantly. His strength far exceeded that of someone at the peak of the Innate Realm.
Although he had never fought against a Grandmaster, he felt that an ordinary early-stage Grandmaster should not be able to stop him.
In particular, his shoes can be upgraded to make him even faster.
This greatly boosted Lu Tao's confidence.
"The smoke signals rise..."
Whew~~
Lu Tao's movements were extremely fast, even faster than that of a typical grandmaster. He also used his concealment technique to its fullest extent. If he didn't appear, he would truly be like a ghost.
Appearing suddenly, harvesting suddenly.
This instilled immense fear in the traitors and spies near Changshun Street.
"Hey, you surnamed Wolf, if you've got the guts, come out here. What kind of man hides like that?"
"Come on, let's fight head-on, don't try to sneak up on us."
“You can’t be a hero. Today, not only will Mufeng City be destroyed, but Yongkang Prefecture will also be destroyed. If you submit to us, you will still have a chance to live.”
Those traitors at the Innate Realm were terrified by Lu Tao's killing and began to spout nonsense.
"What does your looking for someone surnamed Lang have to do with me, Lu Tao?"
Lu Tao completely ignored them.
Compared to before, Lu Tao felt much more relaxed at this moment. However, when his divine sense swept over the dead cultivators, Lu Tao felt a pang of sorrow.
That's terrible.
At least 100,000 people have died in the short attack just now.
Among them, bone forging and organ refining account for the majority, and there are also quite a few innate and grandmaster levels.
It should be noted that these were the backbone of the Great Gan Kingdom, but a single sneak attack resulted in heavy casualties among them.
Lu Tao suppressed his grief and stopped thinking about it, frantically grinding experience points for the "Loyalty to the Country" skill.
At this moment, Lu Tao felt that time was passing incredibly slowly.
It was only a short two-quarters of an hour, but it felt longer than the past ten days.
Finally, I had enough experience.
"Gentlemen, have you ever heard of serving one's country with utmost loyalty?"
Lu Tao stood in mid-air, his voice carrying far and wide...
