On the way, Xu Wang casually inquired about the origins of Lu Ye and Ying Wuji, and Lu Ye repeated what he had said to Yuan Xiang before.

Xu Wang was noncommittal, so naturally he would not believe it easily.

The position of the stronghold is less than ten miles away from the big formation. In front of a very hidden cave, there are still monks guarding it, and there are even more formations to cover it.

Seeing Xu Wang leading the people, one of them came out from the shadows and looked at Lu Ye and Ying Wuji in surprise: "Old Xu, they are..."

"You two guests, don't ask too much." Xu Wang waved his hand.

"Yes!" The man replied, and then hid in the dark again. It can be seen that Xu Wang's prestige in the stronghold is quite high.

Following Xu Wang's actions, the entrance of the concealed stronghold appeared. It was a dark cave with a dim fire shining through it.

"Please!" Xu Wang said before leading the way.

When I entered the cave, I saw the light of fire. Every once in a while, there were torches lighting up the surrounding area.

Circling all the way down, Lu Ye reckoned that he had penetrated a full three hundred feet underground, when a huge cave suddenly appeared in front of him.

The cave is spacious, and there are many figures walking around in it.

On both sides of the cave, there are stone chambers dug out one after another.

Seeing Xu Wang's return, many people greeted him, and at the same time looked at Lu Ye and Ying Wuji curiously.

For people like them, it has been a long time since outsiders appeared in the stronghold, and a stronghold like theirs generally does not allow outsiders to enter easily.

Lu Ye walked by and looked at it, and roughly understood the overall strength of this stronghold.

There are not many people, and the overall strength is not too strong. More than half of them are mortals who have never practiced.

In today's Wushuang Continent, it is not easy for monks to survive, let alone mortals, but mortals are the foundation of monks after all. Without mortals to have children, how can there be a group of monks?

The offspring born between monks may not necessarily be suitable for practice.

Although the remaining half are monks, their cultivation levels are also uneven, and most of them are only equivalent to the level of Lingxi Realm.

Such a stronghold is not even as good as the weakest ninth-rank sect in Kyushu.

The lack of living supplies made the mortals here basically look a little pale and emaciated, and even those monks were not as energetic and bloody as the people in Kyushu.

Lu Ye noticed this the first time he met Yuan Xiang and the others.

Therefore, under the same level of cultivation, Kyushu monks can completely beat the monks here.

I just don't know what the so-called monks from the secret realm with no shortage of resources look like.

Xu Wang led Lu Ye and Ying Wuji to an unoccupied stone room to settle down, and said: "You two, rest here for a while, and I will go to Zuishan."

He also ordered Yuan Xiang: "Greeting the next two guests."

Then he turned and left.

Xu Wang left, leaving Yuan Xiang standing there with an embarrassed expression.

After hesitating for a while, she suddenly bowed to Lu Ye and apologized with a sincere look: "Senior Brother Lu, I'm sorry, you saved me, but I lied to you."

In fact, she had a lot of self-blame in her heart when she returned all the way, but for the safety of the stronghold, she had to act like this, which was related to the precepts and deeds she had received since she was a child. JrNovels.com
