The Blood Swordsman couldn't even open his mouth at this time, and could only watch Lu Chengchuan approaching with his sword.
This blood-red sword had accompanied him in battles for many years, and now he was about to be killed by his own weapon, and all because he had looted a small village.
The long sword fell, so fast, yet so slow. The blood swordsman's eyes reflected a ray of red blood light, and then were completely submerged in darkness.
The Blood Swordsman's head rolled on the sand and was finally blown up by a strand of internal energy from Lu Chengchuan.
Seeing her enemy die before her eyes, Raya looked down at the yellow sand in silence.
Lu Chengchuan took the package from the Blood Swordsman and walked up to Raya: "Go back, there is still a long way to go."
People cannot stay in sadness forever. Lu Chengchuan's own road is even longer. For two years, he doesn't even know what the situation on Earth is like.
"Teacher, where are we going?" Raya looked up. After revenge, she didn't know what to do next.
“Walk more and you will know where to go one day.”
Lu Chengchuan didn't know either. He wanted to return to Earth immediately, but that was impossible. He had no idea how to go back.
Taking the blood-red sword, Lu Chengchuan took Raya away. When Aibende saw them coming, he knew that the matter was over, and hurriedly stood up to greet them.
"Master Lu, are you going back?"
Aibende stood up and bowed slightly to Lu Chengchuan. He now respected and feared Lu Chengchuan.
"Go back."
The first step is to go back to Shayan Town, and then think about where to go.
After defeating the Crimson Swordsmen and successfully taking revenge, everyone rode on sandworms and returned to the town.
A few nights later, everyone stopped to rest.
"There are more monsters in that area on the continent." During the break, Lu Chengchuan suddenly talked about monsters.
Unable to find a way to go home, he just needs to kill more monsters, gain more life and improve his strength, so that he can have a chance to go back.
There are too few monsters in the desert, so he has to find a place with more monsters.
"The place with many monsters is the northwest region. It borders the Monster Continent and has been attacked by monsters all the time." There was no need to think too much about this question, as Aibende answered quickly.
"For thousands of years, that place has been the first line of defense against monster invasions. Without it, the number of monsters within the continent would be ten times greater than it is now."
While there were many monsters within the continent, the area surrounding the settlements was relatively safe. Without the northwest barrier, at least half of the human settlements would have been wiped out.
"Northwest Region..."
After a good rest, everyone continued on their journey. After returning to the town, Lu Chengchuan asked Raya to buy various supplies. He planned to leave here tomorrow and go to the northwest region to hunt monsters.
The next day after Raya bought the things, Lu Chengchuan came to Aibende's office.
"Master Lu, why are you going there?"
Aibende couldn't figure it out. There were many things he couldn't understand.
Logically speaking, a powerful man like Lu Chengchuan should not be completely unknown. The Blood Swordsman who was easily defeated by him has been famous in the south for many years. How could he not have any trace at all?
He seemed to have appeared out of thin air. It was impossible that he was hiding somewhere practicing and only came out to cause trouble after reaching this level.
"Don't ask too much. Thank you for these past few days, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to repay you again. Take this crystal as your reward. That's all. No need to give it away."
Lu Chengchuan needs to improve his strength as quickly as possible and has no time to stay in the small town.
He took out a level three monster crystal, which he had found in the Blood Swordsman's package.
He placed the monster crystal on Epbende's desk as a reward. After putting the thing down, he turned and left. Epbende wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.
At the gate of the mansion, Raya was waiting at the door with a young and strong bone cow.
Seeing the teacher coming out, Raya pulled the bone ox and prepared to set off.
"Is there anything else you want to do?" Before leaving, Lu Chengchuan asked her if there was anything she wanted to do but hadn't done yet.
Raya just shook her head. Seeing this, Lu Chengchuan said nothing more and turned to walk forward.
Two men and a cow left the town and headed towards the barrier in the northwest. Aibende gave him a map and told him that they would reach the destination in about a month by following the route on it.
They were sitting on a cart pulled by a bone ox. Raya was controlling the bone ox while Lu Chengchuan was practicing the divine appearance skill.
The bone oxen pulled the carts along the highway. It was relatively safe near Shayan Town, but once they were far away from the residential area, they soon encountered many vagrants who were eyeing their bone oxen and supplies.
However, these people also know who not to provoke. They are very envious of those things, but they still control themselves.
After walking for more than twenty days, they finally approached the barrier. One day, as they were walking on the road, they came towards a large cavalry group.
Lu Chengchuan looked up and saw that these cavalrymen seemed to be extraordinary.
They wear uniform black full body armor, have both cold and hot weapons, and their mounts are also extraordinary.
These mounts resemble the unicorns in Earth mythology. They look like horses and have a long horn on their foreheads. Each unicorn is stronger than the bony ox that pulls them, and their bodies are protected by scales.
"Teacher, they are rushing towards us."
The moment the two sides met, the cavalry in front suddenly accelerated and seemed to be rushing towards them.
"Don't be afraid. See what they want to do. Stop and take a look. I hope they are not here to cause trouble."
Lu Chengchuan also saw that the other party seemed to be coming for them, but he didn't know their specific intentions. In this case, the two sides were about to collide, and Lu Chengchuan could only ask Raya to stop.
"Hey! Who are you?"
The Bone Ox stopped, and a dozen cavalrymen rushed up, surrounded them, and asked who they were.
"We are mercenaries, here to kill monsters for money!" Raya responded loudly.
In order to defend the barrier, the top leaders of the Fortress City have been issuing bounty missions. As long as the monsters are killed in the Monster Continent and the evidence is brought back, they will pay a generous reward.
Therefore, the fortress city is also a paradise for mercenaries, where they are not afraid of not having opportunities, but they are afraid of not having strength.
"Mercenaries?" The leading cavalryman asked in doubt, but he didn't think much of it. He turned and pointed behind him: "The fortress city is fifteen kilometers ahead. Let's go."
The other party seemed to really want to ask a question, and then led the team to move forward.
The cavalry passed by, and after they left, Raya shouted and told the bone ox to continue on its way.
After several hours, they finally saw the outline of the fortress city.
Behind a hundred-meter-high and thick city wall, a city is located. Many fully armed people are walking in and out of the city, and the city looks cold and solemn.
"Teacher, we're here."
The bone ox approached the city and the two men got off the car.
"It's really...magnificent...how did they do that?" Looking at the tall city walls, Lu Chengchuan couldn't help but sigh.
