Cultivation Of Immortality: Starting From Working As A Cook In A Weapon-Refining Shop

However, before leaving, he still arranged the most luxurious escort team for Tang Yuwei. Among them, the only Nascent Soul-level guard commander of the Tang family personally led the team, accompanied by more than 20 golden elixir protectors, and more than 200 foundation-building servants.

The guard leader Gao Zhijie has reached the early stage of Nascent Soul and has rich escort experience. With Gao Zhijie present, ordinary robbers would not dare to offend him.

In addition, Tang Haotian also specifically told Gao Zhijie to take good care of his daughter and pay attention to Lu Yu's opinions.

…………………………………………

So a few days later, Tang Yuwei set off with a group of guards from the Tang family.

On this trip, there was one Nascent Soul cultivator, 22 Golden Core cultivators, 230 Foundation Establishment guards, and Xuantian secret guards to assist them secretly.

However, Lu Yu was a little worried about this trip. Although there were a lot of these guards, they were usually just looking after the homes and courtyards. They had no cultivation skills and little experience in dealing with enemies.

It's okay when you encounter ordinary monsters or robbers, but it's completely useless when you encounter really cunning enemies.

During this period of time, Lu Yu had been studying inherited memories, and his vision in military affairs and enemy defense was no longer what it used to be.

But his worries didn't change anything.

The Tang family and his party drove five large flying boats, stopping as they went, heading north.

On a flying boat in the middle, sat the guard commander, ten golden elixir protectors, and thirty foundation guards, guarding Tang Yuwei and Lu Yu in the middle.

There is a flying boat at the front, back, left and right, each with three Golden Core Protectors and fifty Foundation Establishment Guards sitting on its flanks.

Each airship is equipped with a lot of cargo, and there is also a large spiritual energy formation on the airship. The guards take turns inputting spiritual power into the formation to drive the airship forward.

Half a month later, the flying boat group came to a lofty mountain.

This land of lofty mountains is inaccessible to humans and has many monsters and beasts. It is right between Zhongzhou and Huazhou.

Lu Yu looked at the dark forest in front of him and suddenly spoke, suggesting that he should bypass this jungle and enter the Central Continent from the edge of another continent.

However, this proposal was quickly rejected by Tang Yuwei. With so many guards, there would be no danger in rushing directly through the dark forest. If they took a long detour, they would probably be late.

Lu Yu had no choice but to turn his attention to Gao Zhijie, hoping that the other party could dissuade him. However, the other party only hesitated for a moment and finally decided to listen to Tang Yuwei.

After all, he had walked this road countless times, and even with his eyes closed, he didn't think there would be any problem.

On the contrary, if I delay the eldest lady's alchemy competition, I don't know how long she will be eliminated.

Of course the other guards also chose to listen to Tang Yuwei.

So the minority obeyed the majority, and Lu Yu had no choice but to follow.

In the next few days, nothing abnormal happened. Everything was as Gao Zhijie expected. Although there were many monsters, they were only in small troubles.

That night, everyone stopped in a valley, set up tents, lit bonfires, and prepared to rest.

More than half of the journey has been completed, and the most dangerous sections have been passed safely, so everyone is relaxed.

But even so, they still had the guards and secret sentries scattered around, forming layers of defense circles to guard Tang Yuwei's camp in the middle.

Lu Yu nodded secretly when he saw this. The man who set up camp knew quite a bit about the art of marching, but he still did not relax and kept an eye on the Ouija board.

…………………………………………

On the periphery, beside a bonfire, several guards were chatting leisurely.

"Hey, who do you think the kid inside is?" A young guard asked curiously.

He was quite unhappy when he saw Lu Yu hanging out with the eldest lady every day, living in the most luxurious tents and eating the most sumptuous food.

"Oh, what's the origin? Just a little follower." Another guard smiled disdainfully.

"Isn't that true? The head of the family seems to trust him very much?"

"It seems, it is indeed a little different!"

"I guess he is a poor relative somewhere. The boy wanted to change the route before, but luckily he didn't listen to him. Otherwise, I don't know how many wrong roads we would have taken."

"It's just that we don't even have hair, and we just want to point fingers without even looking at who we are."

"You said that he is not the son-in-law that the master of the family likes, and he came here in advance to cultivate a relationship with the young lady, right?" A guard suddenly said.

"No way? How is it possible?" Several guards were stunned when they heard this.

Judging from various previous signs, it seems that this is really possible.

Why is this guy able to point fingers at his own lady?

Why does the head of the family still value it so highly?

If you think about it this way, everything makes sense.

"What's so good about that kid? His cultivation is not as good as mine!" the young guard said sourly.

"That's right, if he comes to be our Tang family's son-in-law, I will be the first to refuse!" Another guard also agreed.

"Okay, okay, don't make any wild guesses. He is the son of an old friend of the head of the family. His family is in trouble and he came here to find a job. The head of the house is just soft-hearted, so he arranged for him to be a follower for the young lady. You didn't tell me That's what happened." Seeing that the discussion was getting more and more heated, a Dharma Protector decisively stopped it.

He is one of the Shadow Guards, so he has some understanding of Lu Yu's situation.

"So that's it!" Upon hearing this, all the guards breathed a sigh of relief.

…………………………………………

At midnight, everything was quiet.

At this time, except for the outermost secret sentries, most of the guards had begun to fall asleep.

However, one person suddenly quietly walked out of the camp, came to the upwind point, and lit a piece of colorless and odorless soothing incense.

I don't know what grade this calming incense was, but it quickly followed the wind and filled the entire valley.

Even Lu Yu, who had been alert all the time, was unknowingly hypnotized.

The other guards were snoring and sleeping very soundly.

Suddenly, a low muffled sound came from the outer whistle.

"who!"

The guard commander quickly flew out of the tent and chased into the darkness.

It was a strong figure, and it didn't escape very fast. It seemed that if he chased for a while, he would be able to catch up.

But the more he chased, the more doubtful he became. How could someone appear in this wilderness?

But when he wanted to turn around, he was intercepted by two black figures from behind.

At the same time, a large number of black shadows suddenly appeared around the Tang family camp.

In the valley, all the guards were so sleepy that they were discovered by the enemy only when they got closer.

Suddenly the sound of killing broke out.

Lu Yu suddenly woke up when he heard shouts of killing in his sleep.

He raised his hand and looked at the Ouija board. The area where the Tang family was stationed was surrounded by enemies several times the number of the guards. There were shouts of killing everywhere. The Tang family's guards were jumping around like headless flies, and some of them were The guards were resisting desperately.

Upon seeing this, Lu Yu quickly entered the central tent and shook Tang Yuwei awake.

"Hurry up and follow me, or it will be too late!"

Looking at Tang Yuwei who looked confused, Lu Yu said eagerly.

After the confused Tang Yuwei heard the shouts of killing outside, she hurriedly got up from the bed and was dragged out by Lu Yu.

"Quick, let's go meet Commander Gao!" Tang Yuwei said in panic.
