Qin Zhan was a man of the world, and he never imagined that these ferocious and savage monsters could be so gentle and kind as to do business with Lu Wu. No one else could have imagined it either.
Therefore, in the eyes of others, this scene meant that Boss Lu was in trouble.
She was captured by demonic beasts, which surrounded Boss Lu, undoubtedly performing some evil ritual, waiting for the perfect opportunity to devour Lu Wu alive.
From a high vantage point above the stall, several cultivators watched the scene unfold, their expressions complex and conflicted.
They were cultivators who had bought ice jelly from Lu Wu yesterday. They were still exploring various parts of the secret realm, but for some reason, the temperature in the secret realm was still rising.
For cultivators in the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core stages, the time they can sustain themselves with protective spiritual power is becoming increasingly shorter.
Unable to meet their needs, they opted to consume ice jelly.
The ice jelly has a remarkable effect, relieving their bodies from being roasted by high temperatures.
However, once the ice jelly's effect wears off, the ensuing high temperatures become even more unbearable for them.
Having no other choice, they returned to the location of the stone tablet and asked Boss Lu to buy more ice jelly to keep on hand.
Of course, there is another way, which is to stay on the outermost edge of the secret realm like those Qi Refining cultivators, where the temperature is bearable.
Faced with the allure of the new secret realm, few can easily choose to give it up.
Fortune favors the bold, and thus Lu Wu became the only solution.
The cultivators tacitly agreed to rush here again, only to find Lu Wu surrounded by demonic beasts upon arrival.
Even with a prodigy like Qin Zhan as a bodyguard, they didn't believe Lu Wu could survive such a large-scale siege by demonic beasts.
They are doomed to die.
This is their interpretation of Lu Wu's fate.
If they want to survive, they can only rely on external forces to break through.
The secret realm is sealed off; outsiders cannot enter, and they are the only ones who can help us.
"No, I have to go help Boss Lu."
One cultivator looked at the monsters besieging the city and hesitated for a while before finally making up his mind.
He was a regular customer of Lu Wu's; he had known Lu Wu since Lu Wu was still selling steamed buns in Xiahe Town.
Boss Lu is a good person.
He enjoys the delicious food made by Boss Lu.
The thought of Boss Lu dying here made his craving for food unfulfilled.
Driven by the desire for food, he had to see if there was anything he could do.
"I can't do it. There are so many demonic beasts. Going there would be suicide."
Some cultivators stood still and remained motionless.
Although Lu Wu had done them a favor, they had also spent money to buy the ice jelly. It was a transaction; I buy and you sell, so there was no karmic debt between us.
They sympathized with Lu Wu's plight, but there was no need to take the risk for someone they had just met.
For cultivators, the most important thing is to preserve themselves.
If you lose yourself, what future can you talk about?
Many people share the same idea as this prudent monk, and most of them do not want to get involved.
Those monsters looked like they could be torn apart at will.
Some are already considering leaving.
If they stayed any longer, they would only witness the tragic deaths of Lu Wu and the others.
However, some people hold different opinions.
"That's true, but don't forget, we're in a secret realm. You've seen the news on the One Realm Network; the entrance to this secret realm can't be opened from the outside. We can only wait for seven days to pass."
"It's only the third day now."
"The environment of this secret realm has forced us to use external means to relieve the pressure."
"The only thing that can keep us exploring the secret realm right now is Boss Lu's ice jelly. If we just watch Boss Lu die, it means we can only retreat to the outer perimeter for the next few days."
"Even...being completely steamed by the secret realm."
This person's analysis is very rational.
He stood there, dressed in an ordinary blue robe, his face handsome and upright like that of a gentleman.
Someone recognized the person's identity.
"It is Jiang Yunhe, a disciple of the Divine Doctor Valley."
"Actually, what he said makes sense."
Being there, they are best able to sense the changes in the secret realm.
However, if they could endure such a difficult third day, who knows if the dangers of this secret realm would fully erupt in the final days?
Perhaps the towering flames will burn all of these outsiders to ashes.
No matter how you look at it, Boss Lu's existence is a possible way out for them.
They would die if they went, so they definitely wouldn't go.
But the fact that they went there to find a way to survive made many people hesitate.
After saying this, Jiang Yunhe stopped trying to urge the crowd on and instead walked towards the location of the monster.
He arrived so late because he encountered a small cave on his way there and gained a great deal from it.
However, because of this, he lost track of the Firebird, and even lost the One Realm Passage.
I only came here today after hearing Boss Lu's name from these cultivators.
He didn't know what the situation was with the demonic beast.
But he knew Qin Zhan well.
They are not beings who simply accept their fate; even when facing an invincible enemy, they will fight their way out.
The fact that Qin Zhan is still completely unmoved shows that there is still room for maneuver in this matter.
He was stirring up emotions to give Qin Zhan and the others a better chance.
With Jiang Yunhe's departure, many of those who had been persuaded stopped hesitating.
If they're doomed either way, they have to strive towards a place where there's hope.
"Damn it, I'll do it. At worst, I'll just die. Anyway, I'll be a hero again in eighteen years."
A burly man was the first to follow.
With this person taking the lead, the others followed suit.
"Saving Boss Lu is saving myself."
"Brothers, charge with me!"
"Charge!"
They charged across the mountains and fields, shouting menacingly.
They were truly prepared to unleash their full power, and their fighting spirit, even from afar, drew the attention of the demonic beasts.
They turned their heads and saw a group of human cultivators holding all sorts of weapons, shouting and killing at the beast. But the beast hadn't done anything wrong.
Not to mention the monsters, even Qin Zhan was stunned.
What's going on here?
"roar!"
Monsters are not easy to deal with.
Already short-tempered, they were provoked by the human cultivator and immediately let out a deafening roar.
Some of the monsters on the periphery were posing for battle.
Beasts are not to be trifled with.
This time, the beast is going to teach these humans a lesson.
The two fighting spirits intertwined, staining the already crimson sky with a bloody red.
"Boss Lu, I've come to save you!"
When Lu Wu heard this, he realized that these cultivators had misunderstood, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Seeing that the two sides were about to start fighting, Lu Wu quickly called out "Huo Huo".
Stop hitting him, stop hitting him.
Stop fighting!
"Chirp chirp!"
Fire, like a sharp sword, streaked across the sky and quickly appeared in the center of the battlefield. She looked to both sides, opened her mouth, and a burst of flame shot out, forming a tall wall of fire.
The firewall separated the two sides and successfully stopped the chaotic fight.
Taking this opportunity, Lu Wu hurriedly went over to explain.
Don't lay a hand on me, we're all family.
