The Strongest Devouring Upgrade

Chapter 559: return with glory

After a rest, everyone set off again.

In the early morning of the next day, they formally entered the border of Beiji Country, which means that they have truly returned to the Eastern Continent!

"came back!"

"Finally home!"

"Ah, this warm air, this beautiful scenery... is better than the Eastern Continent!"

"I didn't expect... I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to return to the Eastern Continent in this life. Thank you Elder Lu, Elder Zhuang, and thank you..."

In fact, the temperature here is not much warmer than the place where they walked the past two days.

The surrounding scenery also tends to be gray-white, there are no red flowers and green grass, let alone beautiful.

But even so, Jiang Hanyu and others were still expressing their surging emotions with excitement.

Some people knelt on the ground, yelling up to the sky, some were in tears, and some were grateful to Lu Pingan and Zhuang Qingxi...

Not to mention Jiang Hanyu and others who have been imprisoned for so long and have endured many painful tortures, even Lu Pingan and Zhuang Qingxi are deeply moved.

But in any case, the trip to the snow field that lasted more than nine months was completely over.

At this point, Lu Pingan and others felt relieved, and at the same time felt a sense of accomplishment in their hearts.

However, they did not stay on the border for too long and soon continued on the road.

After walking for some distance, they came outside Bianxing City.

But when they looked around, they saw that there was a sea of ​​people near that city gate, and there were many people floating in the air!

Lu Ping's and his party were stunned for a while, and then they discovered that they were all monks from various major clans in the Eastern Continent.

Gongsun Ying asked, "Elder Zhuang, have you told us about our itinerary?"

Zhuang Qingxi smiled and nodded, and said, "Of course."

Gongsun Ying said, "That is to say, they are here..."

Before she could finish her words, the people near the city gate suddenly shouted in unison: "Welcome the hero to return in triumph!"

The sound was deafening, resounding across the sky!

At the same time, this also deeply impacted the hearts of Lu Pingan and others, making them feel that the things they did were full of honor.

During the entire trip to the snowy field, Zhuang Qingxi had been reporting to He Wenfu, and when the mission was successful, He Wenfu would naturally publicize the good news.

Although it may not have reached the point where it is well known in the Eastern Continent, at least the various sect forces must have known it a long time ago.

And there is no doubt that what Lu Pingan and others have done is truly heroic. It can even be said that the entire East Continent has been protected from the harm of the war.

Therefore, it is not surprising that those people gathered here today to warmly welcome the return of Lu Pingan and others.

The four of Lu Pingan could readily accept such praise, but Jiang Hanyu and others looked a little embarrassed.

"Everyone, you are all people who have made contributions to the Eastern Continent, so you are also the heroes of the Eastern Continent. Don't have any thoughts that are arrogant."

Lu Pingan said to Jiang Hanyu and others.

Zhuang Qingxi said: "That's right, He Zhuong said, you will all get the honor and rewards you deserve, and you will never be wronged."

Jiang Hanyu already knew the identity of He Wenfu. He was startled when he heard this, and asked: "He...really said that?"

Zhuang Qingxi said: "Yes."

When Jiang Hanyu and others learned of this, they were very moved.

Although Lu Pingan had said similar things to them before, they still hoped to gain more people's approval.

Lu Ping'an said: "Let's go, let's go over, don't let others wait too long."

After saying this, Lu Pingan and the others walked towards the city gate.

The eyes of everyone on the opposite side were focused on them, as if each of them was emitting a bright light.

And among those eyes, some are full of relief, some are praise, some are joy, and some are worship and admiration...

It was under the eyes of the public that Lu Ping'an and his party walked to the front of the crowd without rush.

Lu Pingan clasped his fists and arched his hands, and said to He Wenfu who was standing in the front: "He Fufu, we have completed the task and saved the people who can be saved. Fortunately, we are not insulted!"

Zhuang Qingxi and Chunyu Feiqiong also said in unison, "Fortunately, not insulting your life!"

Jiang Hanyu and others didn't know what to say, they just bowed their fists.

He Wenfu smiled and nodded, and said, "You guys have worked hard..."

After that, He Wenfu looked at Jiang Hanyu and others and said, "You too, everyone has worked hard, welcome home!"

"Welcome home!"

Everyone behind He Wenfu shouted again.

When Lu Pingan and his party saw this, they all laughed happily, very happy.

The next moment, Lu Pingan saw Mu Qing, Di Guangji, Meng Shaoyuan and other monks at the Cloud Sword Gate standing not far away.

This surprised Lu Pingan and said to He Wenfu: "He worship, I..."

He Wenfu smiled and said: "Go, go, do whatever you want, and we will go to the City Lord's Mansion in Bianxing City to discuss business later."

As soon as this remark came out, Lu Pingan walked quickly to Mu Qing and the others.

Meng Shaoyuan was even more excited, so he ran forward and hugged Lu Pingan.

"Brother Lu, I want to kill you!"

Lu Ping'an smiled and said, "Each one another, how has Brother Meng been?"

Meng Shaoyuan said: "It's okay, it's just that I went out to practice with the master some time ago, and my life was hanging by a thread several times. Otherwise, everything is fine."

Mu Qing suddenly frowned and said, "What? Your kid still dare to come here to complain about being a teacher? Besides, the places you go are not worth mentioning in terms of the degree of danger compared with the snowy field. , Actually still have the face to say such things in front of my junior brother Lu?"

Meng Shaoyuan said, "What kind of cultivation level is Brother Lu, can I compare with him?"

Mu Qing said, "What Brother Lu is called Senior Uncle, do you still want to be equal to me?"

Seeing that the two masters and apprentices were about to quarrel, Di Guangji on the side coughed lightly and said, "Did you forget why we came here today?"

Mu Qing glared at Meng Shaoyuan, and then said, "Of course I didn't forget. We are here to welcome the great hero home. Junior Brother Lu, you have suffered in the snowy field for more than nine months."

Lu Pingan smiled and shook his head, and said, "No matter how great the suffering is, it has passed. Now I can return to the Eastern Continent safely. I am satisfied to see you pick me up here."

Mu Qing said, "That's right, but every time you think of you suffering in a ghostly place like a snowy field, Senior Sister, I feel like a knife."

Meng Shaoyuan said: "Really? Every time you hear about Brother Lu, don't you always say, "That kid won't happen, don't worry"?"

Mu Qing said: "Is there? Have you ever said that for your teacher? Don't you kid, don't talk nonsense here."

Di Guangji reluctantly said: "By the way, Senior Brother Lu, the head brother encountered a bottleneck in his cultivation. He went to retreat and practice two months ago, but before he retreats, let me bring you a word..."

Lu Ping'an said, "What are you talking about?"

Di Guangji said, "Yunjianmen, proud of you!"

Lu Ping'an laughed when he heard the words, and said, "Thank you brother, and thank you brother in charge."

While Lu Ping'an and Mu Qing had a good conversation and enjoyed themselves, Zhuang Qingxi and others were all reunited with their relatives and friends.

People like Jiang Hanyu, who have been without news for many years, are now rarely reunited with relatives and friends, and they are crying with excitement and can't help themselves.

Upon seeing this, Di Guangji said, "Junior Brother Lu, don't say anything, you just save these people, you are already boundless."

Lu Ping'an said, "Unfortunately, only more than 20 people have been rescued, and many more have died in the snowy field."

Di Guangji said: "Just do your best. Don't keep putting so much pressure on yourself. In this world, no one can save everyone."

Mu Qing asked, "Junior Brother Lu, I heard that you met Uncle Nie in a snowy field?"

Lu Ping'an said: "Yes, but... this is a long story. After a few days have time, I will talk to you slowly."

Mu Qing said: "That's OK, anyway, it's also noisy here, not suitable for talking."

After the crowd had a lot of fun near the city gate, He Wenfu began to call everyone into the city.

It didn't take long for Lu Pingan and some of the people in the field to gather in the city lord's mansion in Bianxing City.

According to He Wenfu's words, it is time to discuss business.

...

The lobby of the City Lord’s Mansion in Bianxing City is extremely spacious and can accommodate hundreds of people.

But only a few people can really enter it.

Except for Lu Pingan and his party, they are all high-level figures of major powers like He Fu and Mu Qing.

As long as it is a sect and force that can be ranked in the Eastern Continent, representatives have been sent.

This shows that the importance of all parties on this matter is still quite high.

However, Lu Ping'an originally thought that the person from Jixia College would be Chun Yukun, the head elder of the General Hospital, but he did not expect that he would be the Vice President in charge of the Eastern Hospital.

Even if he put aside his status and status, just because Chunyu Feiqiong was a member of Operation Snow, Chun Yukun would have come here in person.

And the reason for this, Lu Ping'an estimated that Chun Yukun had offended Qi Zhu before, and then was suppressed by various quarters, making him even a representative figure.

As soon as he thought of this, Lu Ping'an couldn't help but feel worried, thinking that he would have to ask Chunyu Feiqiong to contact Chun Yukun and ask him about his situation.

After everyone was seated, He Wenfu said: "As for the trip to the snowy field, I believe that everyone here already knows something, so I won’t repeat it any more. But we are gathered here today mainly to welcome us from the Eastern Continent. Heroes, come back triumphantly, but in addition to the verbal welcome, we must also show something practical. To put it bluntly, we must reward our heroes!"
