In a sense, Ji Changge failed Lin Chulan and made her feel very disappointed, but Lu Ping'an saved her several times.

It would not be surprising if she really transferred her feelings for Ji Changge to Lu Ping'an.

But Lu Pingan only hoped that he thought too much. The reason why Lin Chulan treated him that way was only because he had a life-saving grace for Lin Chulan and Lin Shixiong, and there was no other factor.

Lu Ping'an didn't want to be influenced by the love of men and women in the process of demon teaching.

The key is that he doesn't have any thoughts about Lin Chulan. As long as he can maintain a normal friendship with Lin Chulan, he will be satisfied.

Of course, Lu Ping'an just thought about it casually, anyway, Lin Chulan didn't make a clear statement. Even if he guessed, he would just pretend that he didn't know anything.

An hour later, Lin Shixiong and others set off on time.

They were two teams before, but now they are also disguised as two caravans, and they are led by Lin Shixiong and Yu Jingzhong respectively.

When they left the inn, they were still a little worried.

But as they expected, on the streets of Linzhou City, there were many caravans that were planning to leave the city, and they were mixed in, nothing unusual.

However, the most important thing is the destruction of the Miao Le Palace, which has not been discovered for the time being, so naturally no one will come to search the demons.

Soon, they went out of Linzhou City smoothly, and then went to Dongyu Country.

After leaving the city, their mood was slightly relaxed.

After all, the farther away from Linzhou City, the safer they are.

Lin Shixiong contacted the other two teams and learned that they had also left the city safely, and his heart became much calmer.

Lu Pingan was still the same as when he came, riding in a carriage with Lin Shixiong and Lin Chulan.

Most of the time, they were resting on their own to heal their injuries, and only occasionally chatted.

Along the way, their entire team still maintained a fairly low-key action code, and even more cautious than when they first came. They could not enter the city without entering the city, and try to avoid the crowd.

And on the third day after leaving Linzhou City, they had no choice but to go through a city, otherwise if they chose to take a detour, they would have to spend more time.

Although this would be a bit risky, it was only a small city, and no one should have discovered that they were cult monks.

After entering the city, they did not stay, but walked directly through, which can avoid contact with outsiders to a great extent.

When passing a small tea stall on the street, Lu Pingan and others heard some small talk.

"Have you heard? The Demon Cult has returned to the world!"

"Ah? Didn't the Demon Cult perish long ago? Why did it suddenly appear again?"

"Who told you that they were destroyed? They just hid before and were not found."

"Then how were they discovered this time?"

"They came out on the initiative. Just a few days ago, they slaughtered Miao Le Palace in one fell swoop!"

"Miao Le Palace? Isn't that a branch of the top-level Menzong Phantom Music Workshop? The demon cult is so bold!"

"Nonsense, they are demon cults, what bad things they dare not do? Thousands of monks in Miao Le Palace were all killed, and the valuables in them were also wiped out. That large group of palaces, more It was completely reduced to ruins! Moreover, when this incident was discovered, the people of the Demon Cult had already disappeared, and they could only be judged from the demon energy left there."

"The Demon Cult is really hateful! They are so stubbornly guilty of life, it is simply heinous! How do the righteous sect forces plan to deal with them?"

"That must be to find them out and kill them all. Now the imperial courts and various sect forces of the four major countries are already in action, and they must be wiped out!"

"The demon sect is not eliminated, and people's hearts are uneasy. I hope that the righteous forces can eliminate harm for the people as soon as possible!"

Those who were drinking tea were excited and filled with righteous indignation, but they didn't know that a team of demons passed by them just now.

Lu Ping's and their carriages were not traveling fast in the city, and because they had good hearing, they heard those conversations naturally.

But for them, this is expected, nothing unexpected.

A few days have passed, and it's time for the outside world to discover Miao Le Palace.

When the news spreads, the people will hate cursing the Demon Cult, which is normal.

The only thing that needs to be noted is that since the righteous forces have already begun to act, they must be more cautious.

Not only the people at the small tea stall are talking about this, they can hear similar discussions in many places.

This is just a small city, in those more prosperous big cities, or among the big gates, one can imagine how many people are discussing this matter.

Undoubtedly, the extinction of Miao Le Palace and the re-emergence of Demon Cult will surely cause an uproar in the Eastern Continent. It can even be said to be enough to shock the entire Eastern Continent and affect everyone.

Of course, this impact can be large or small.

The civilians near Linzhou City, as well as the small family Xiaomenzong, are unavoidably panic, for fear that the Demon Cult will do more cold-blooded and ruthless actions in the future, such as slaughtering the city.

People in other places, as well as those of the great sect forces, will feel a sense of crisis, but they will not panic.

To say that the most influential one must be Magic Music Workshop.

Their strongest branch was slaughtered and suffered great losses, which is also a great shame for them.

The entire Phantom Music Workshop is now in extreme grief and anger, and they can't wait to fight the Demon Cult to the death.

It didn't take long for Lu Pingan and the others to leave the small city and move on.

Lin Shixiong suddenly asked, "Little friend Ren, how do you feel when you hear those people curse the Demon Cult?"

Lu Ping'an calmly said: "I don't feel anything, I never surprise people's opinions."

Lin Shixiong smiled and said, "That's good, after all, you have just joined the Demon Cult. I am worried that you will be affected by public opinion. Fortunately, you don't care what others say."

Lu Ping'an said: "Most people in the world are nothing but people's opinions, and they don't know the truth at all, so in my opinion, their words have no meaning at all."

Lin Shixiong sighed and said, "Unfortunately, we don't know what the truth is."

Lu Pingan asked, "Do you mean the purpose of attacking Miao Le Palace?"

Lin Shixiong said, "Yes, when I reported the situation to the general altar before, I asked tentatively, but the deputy leader still didn't tell me anything."

Lu Pingan said, "Maybe it's not the time."

Lin Shixiong said: "Maybe, I don't have to know the secrets of the general forum. I just feel that we have paid so much for that battle, but in the end we don't know the root cause. Sometimes I think about it. sorrow."

Lu Pingan did not know what to say, so he fell silent.

In fact, Lu Pingan himself was also very curious, and wanted to figure out what the Demon Cult General Group wanted to do.

In the unlikely event that he was planning a big conspiracy, he might also respond in advance.

But even Lin Shixiong, who is the master of the altar, couldn't ask, and he couldn't find out. He could only take a step by step and wait for the development of things.

In the next few days, Lu Ping'an and the others would be extra careful whenever they passed a city of a certain scale. They would rather take a detour than venture into the city.

After all, even the imperial court and various local government agencies have taken action, and they have set up relevant cards for inspection when entering and leaving the city. Even if the general officials and monks cannot find out their identities, if any accident happens, the consequences will be disastrous.

In short, for the sake of safety, they chose a safer route.

Except for one time when they were almost found out by a team of practitioners passing by, they were basically safe on the way.

After more than ten days, they successfully returned to the division.

As soon as they entered the small world, many people in the team cheered.

"finally come back!"

"We got home safely, great!"

"Finally, I can rest in peace."

Although nothing happened on the road, they were always in a vigilant mood. Whenever they saw someone passing by, most of them became nervous.

Only then did they really relax. The sense of security brought to them by this small world in the sub-alarms made them feel relieved and felt extremely secure in their hearts.

Lin Chulan couldn't help but generalize: "I used to always want to go out and wander around, but now I discovered that the feeling of being at home turned out to be so warm and comfortable."

Lin Shixiong said: "This is actually not entirely because of how good we are here, but we are too dangerous outside. If the Demon Cult is strong enough, how can we be like this?"

Lin Chulan's expression changed slightly, and he said solemnly: "One day, we will be strong enough to be fearless!"

Lin Shixiong said, "Well, it's good if you can think about it this way. You have experienced a lot of things this time when you went out, and you must have grown to a certain extent. After you come back, you have to digest it and figure out what you should do. "

Lin Chulan nodded and said, "Father, I will work hard to cultivate and become a strong person who can be alone!"

Lin Shixiong said: "I believe you and look forward to that day."

Lin Chulan said: "I also hope that one day I can surpass Brother Xiaodong and go out to perform tasks in the future, and I no longer need him to protect me."

Lu Pingan smiled and said, "That would be the best."

On the way back, Lin Shixiong had already learned that Lin Chulan had changed her name to Lu Pingan, so he didn't feel surprised to hear it at this time.

"It is not easy to surpass Xiaoyou Ren. Even if you target him, you must have a clear understanding, otherwise you will only fall into despair in the end."

Lin Shixiong did not blindly encourage Lin Chulan, but gave her a reminder.

Lin Chulan said: "Of course I know this, but the more you do this, the more challenging it will be!"

After Lu Ping and the others returned, the other two teams returned to the sub-stage in the evening and the next afternoon respectively.

Those two teams also went smoothly in their itinerary. There were some minor troubles, but no major accidents happened. How many people there were when they left Linzhou City, how many people came back now.

For them, until now, it was considered that the entire task was truly completed.

All the surviving monks withdrew safely back to the sub-altar, and this action was brought to an end.
