As for a strand of Water Law, Lu Yi did not absorb it right away.
The disturbance caused by absorbing the Water Law was too great, and since this was the Ancient City, bustling with many people and much chatter, Lu Yi planned to wait until he found a quiet place to absorb it.
Lu Yi simply materialized those rewards, stored them all properly, and then left the Cultivation Room.
When Lu Yi left the Cultivation Room, he found Yun Xi sitting in the hall. Seeing Lu Yi co out, her eyes lit up, and she smiled, "Lu Yi, have you finished cultivating?"
Lu Yi checked the ti and realized it was already morning; absorbing the enlightennt of the Water Tao had taken more than an entire night's ti.
Lu Yi nodded, "Yes, how about you? Did you rest well?"
Yun Xi smiled, "Quite well."
"That's good to hear. Let's go out and check the situation," Lu Yi suggested, leading Yun Xi outside.
After yesterday's fierce battle, he was unsure about the current state of East Bright City.
The two of them soared into the sky to survey the situation.
The battle had been incredibly fierce the previous day. The city walls of East Bright City had sustained severe damage in several areas, and according to Lin Yunfeng's introduction, these walls, built with Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, were capable of withstanding several attacks from Nascent Soul Cultivators. It was unexpected that they would be so badly damaged.
With the city walls damaged, many buildings within the city had collapsed as well. Most of the collapsed buildings were the dwellings of common people; the buildings of cultivators were basically all equipped with stable formations. Although the aftereffects were intense, they were not enough to cause collapse.
Lu Yi and Yun Xi saw cultivators from the Eastern Domain Alliance Army flying about in haste everywhere, busily engaged in restorative efforts.
There were Artifact Refiners rebuilding the city walls, and Alchemists treating the wounded from yesterday's battle.
Other cultivators patrolled to prevent chaos within the city.
As Lu Yi and Yun Xi flew past, they soon arrived at the central square of East Bright City.
At this mont, there were many bodies lying on the square covered with white cloths—all were cultivators who had died in the previous battle. So of the bodies were not intact, for the battles between cultivators were too horrific, and it was fortunate to even have a complete corpse.
In front of the bodies, many people were wailing in sorrow—these were the families or friends of the cultivators.
Lu Yi and Yun Xi passed by and ca to a residential area for commoners, where there were even more bodies. Commoners, who couldn't withstand even the aftershocks, died under the rubble of collapsed buildings, which also buried many lives.
Having witnessed many similar horrors on his way to the Sea Clan Battlefield, Lu Yi couldn't help but lant inwardly the frailty of human life.
As Lu Yi and Yun Xi flew past, the expressions on each cultivator's face they encountered held reverence, and whispers followed their wake:
"Is it them?"
"Yes! It's Senior Lu Yi! I don't know who the other senior is, but she's also very strong!"
"I heard too, yesterday Senior Lu Yi, by his own strength, held off a Great Mahayana cultivator and slew eleven Unification Great Powers. If not for him, we could not have lasted until reinforcents arrived and would have been completely wiped out!"
"Senior Lu Yi is only at the Cave Void Realm, yet he fought against a Great Mahayana cultivator—truly a genius. Sigh, if I had just one-tenth of Senior Lu Yi's talent, I would be content."
"Wake up, stop dreaming. Even one-tenth of Senior Lu Yi's talent is hard to find in the whole of Tianming."
"That's true... But who is that female senior accompanying Senior Lu Yi? She's only at the Cave Void First Layer, and it's said that she killed several Unification Great Powers yesterday! Her achievents aren't far behind the female sword immortal of the Divine Sword Sect when she first ca to the Sea Clan Battlefield."
"Indeed, rumors say that the female sword immortal went through a transformation, forging a Sword Heart on top of her Sword Bone, creating a Sword Immortal Body! In all of Tianming, apart from Senior Lu Yi, there are hardly any other heavenly prides that can match her. It's unexpected that this female senior also has such talent."
"Could this female senior also be a Heavenly Pride Demon with an Immortal Body?"
"..."
The crowd murmured among themselves.
Hearing the words of the people, Lu Yi felt a bit peculiar, thinking how he, with just over a hundred years of cultivation, had already beco seen as a revered elder.
The world is truly unpredictable.
Yun Xi also felt sowhat complex as she spoke, "I've beco a female senior, huh."
The ones discussing were several powerful beings at the Divinity Transformation Realm.
In the past, such powerful beings would be considered at the level of Qingzhou Supre Elders.
To Yun Xi, they were once targets of her cultivation.
Yet unexpectedly, in just a few decades, she had unknowingly surpassed this goal.
Yun Xi then rembered—was she now stronger than her grandmother?
She had deliberately ignored this question before, but now, reflecting upon it, her feelings were mixed.
All of this, it was brought by Lu Yi.
Yun Xi turned her head to look at Lu Yi, her eyes sparkling.
Seeing Yun Xi looking at him, Lu Yi smiled, "What's the matter?"
Yun Xi shook her head, grasped Lu Yi's hand, and said with a smile, "It's really great to have t you."
Lu Yi was taken aback for a mont, then held Yun Xi's hand, smiling eagerly, "In that case, how about we try out a few new positions tonight?"
Yun Xi's expression instantly stiffened, and with a slight huff, she looked away without speaking.
As they flew, they encountered many cultivators, all of whom were very respectful towards them.
Even those commanding the cultivators to repair the city walls, the Unification Great Powers, were all smiles.
After making a round, the two soon returned to the City Lord Mansion.
No sooner than they had returned to the City Lord Mansion, Lu Yi saw Wang Beifeng and the others.
