Death Benefit

 Chapter 1309 Exposed

Lu Mei’s trip attracted a lot of people’s attention.

To a certain extent, she has become a symbol of the college.

  Orphan, self-taught, traveled across the empire to study, and eventually became a middle-level or higher-level student in the academy.

The labels brought by these experiences have attracted more attention to her.

 So this trip back home has also touched the hearts of many people.

The key point is that although Lu Mei is not from the Empire, she is from the Soul Beast Territory next to the Empire.

 She just needs to cross the empire, and just this crossing causes a lot of problems.

If Lu Mei is from the Empire, then the Empire has many plans for Lu Mei.

But Lu Mei is not, but she has to cross the empire. This journey is equivalent to a champion parade, so that many people can see the scenery inside.



 As for the imperial royal family, they were in a dilemma.

Since people are not our own, we cannot use some means, otherwise it will easily cause diplomatic incidents.

But people have to pass by themselves, and it will cause a duel between the two largest forces in the empire. They wish that when Lu Mei passed by, she would have died in the turmoil.

 Now we can only think of ways to accommodate Lu Mei's itinerary.

 The royal family has made up its mind that it is better to do less than to do more.

 Lu Mei is passing by, and she must not die. If she dies, diplomatic incidents will inevitably occur.

In addition, the religious sect was also extremely active during this period, causing many things, which made the royal family feel the need to crack down on the religious sect's power.

 The most important thing is to keep things within reasonable limits.

Lu Mei successfully crossed the border, so the most impact it will have is that some people will identify more with academics and more people will go out to study.

 Once Lu Mei is killed, it is likely to be the trigger of the war.

 So, the choice in this matter is actually very clear, that is, to make things transition smoothly.

 Do not publicize it, nor ignore it, but secretly send people to protect it and prevent people from the religious sect from causing trouble.

Lu Mei was received by local officials and nobles at the gate of the border city.

They didn’t wait too much. After greeting each other for a while, they sat on the magic car and walked towards their home.

But his eyes slightly glanced at a small alley in the distance.

 She found that there were many people following her there.

And it is very likely that he is a master who surpasses her. If her spiritual body is not a source beast, and if she is not standing at the door of the dream stairs, she may not be able to find him.

"It should be a master sent by the royal family." Lu Mei roughly confirmed the other party's status in her mind, and then didn't care.

As for the academic people, they are still in her team.

 The academic schools of the empire were essentially the former students of the First Academy. After they had accomplished their studies, they returned to their own country.

 Then various colleges were founded in their own country. Although they were not as good as the First College, they were also developing slowly.

 It’s hard to say in the future, but the relationship between the academy and the First Academy is still very close, and people are often sent there for exchanges and studies.

 Some teachers and professors from the First College are sometimes invited to come to the college here to give lessons to the students here.

 In this case, Lu Mei's arrival also attracted many people to accompany her.

These people even asked Lu Mei to call them senior brothers and seniors.

 In short, the relationship is here, and they also told Lu Mei that they would help curb the power of the sect and would never let the troubles of the sect come.

Of course, this matter is actually uncertain. Defense is a disadvantage, so they also sent some people to mix with the **** team.

Lu Mei could only agree to this, but she did not fully trust the academics here.

 It is true that the academic school and the academy are closely related, but after all, the two are not in the same camp.

 Besides, wasn’t the previous incident in the Chaos Leader caused by people from the Academy Leader?

Many people have rebelled long ago, and the college leaders have not found out.

 The Chaos Territory is closer to the academy, so this kind of thing can still happen. Who knows if there are any insiders in the Imperial Academy over the years.

Lu Mei did not dare to completely put her own safety on the protection of these people. Hiding in the mine for a year was enough once, and she did not want to do it a second time.

So, on the surface, she is very beautiful, but secretly, she has been maintaining a certain secret skill that she has recently cultivated.

 It seemed to be really peaceful along the way, and a lot of news came from the academics. For example, the cult organized several waves of manpower, but all of them were intercepted by the academics.

 At the same time, the academic faction also took the initiative and carried out activities in several important strongholds of the sect.

 In this way, we can capture the hands of most of the sect.

The royal family also provided some help in this process, and involved some members of the religious order through some royal tasks.

 It's just that the calmer it is, the more people can't imagine how earth-shattering it will be when things break out.

The academics naturally knew this. Instead of being blindly optimistic, they accelerated their monitoring efforts to find the hidden masters of the sect.

There was even a direct conflict with the sect in one place. Some white gloves sent by the academy directly raided the secret stronghold of the sect in another place and killed most of the members of the sect there.

 Through this incident, many members of the religious sect were attracted.

But it won’t work. If they don’t deal with this kind of fair slap in the face, then let them put their faith somewhere else.

 So, the academic faction handled it very well this time. It seems that the religious group really has no way to stop it in the process.

It seems that this is what happened. Lu Mei successfully crossed the empire. During the whole process, no one from the religious order appeared in front of her. It seemed that they were all intercepted by the academy.

Then as she crossed the border and came to the Soul Beast Territory, she discovered that her hometown had been reduced to ruins.

There are ruins and broken walls and broken limbs everywhere.

Some corpses were already rotten and smelly, with maggots squirming on them, as if laughing at how late their group had arrived.

"This... is impossible!" The face of the academic liaison person in the team changed and became extremely ugly, and he kept saying it was impossible.

They expected that the members of the religious sect would carry out assassinations after leaving the empire's borders, but they did not expect that they would massacre Lu Mei's hometown directly before that.

This kind of thing is too beyond ordinary people's cognition.

The action against the rightful owner was tepid, but secretly they massacred the opponent's hometown.

 It’s not like they didn’t send people to this Soul Beast Territory, but they didn’t send any information.

 In addition, their focus has been following Lu Mei, so they have also neglected this side. "What about those soul beasts? Why do you allow people from these religious groups to do this?"

 There are also people who are full of confusion.

 The reason why the Soul Beast Territory is called the Soul Beast Territory is because it is said that decades ago, the Soul Beasts and the humans here united to overthrow a religious sect.

Then the soul beasts reached an agreement with the humans here, that is, they help each other. The soul beasts will not harass humans, and will help humans in this area remain independent. At the same time, the humans here also need to help the soul beasts to purchase various Items from humans.

 The spirit beasts are divided into groups. Their intelligence is no worse than that of humans, but the number of a single group has always been difficult to increase.

Furthermore, it is difficult for soul beasts to obtain offspring through natural gestation. The operation of the contemporary world can only give birth to various soul beasts. Only the master of soul beasts can bring about the ability to give birth to soul beasts.

 This also determines that it is difficult for spirit beasts to form a society.

  If a social system cannot be built, it will be difficult to manufacture various industrial things, and they can only be traded with humans.

So this territory was protected by spirit beasts and managed by humans.

 In addition, the empire also needs some resources from soul beasts, and the power of soul beasts is indeed not weak.

 So the Soul Beast Territory maintained its independence during the establishment of the empire and was not swallowed up by the empire.

In this case, how did the cult surpass the power of the soul beasts and kill most of the humans here led by the soul beasts?

 As soon as I took a few steps forward, the answer was already given.

I saw that the main city in the distance was covered with countless flags.

 Each flag represents a religious order.

There are actually only two or three sects in the empire, and they are also brother sects. Although they do not believe in the same god, they seem to be very closely related.

 Now, there are more than a few religious sect flags here. With so many religious sects, even the empire will probably choose to bow their heads in this situation.

 The group was ready to retreat at this time.

However, I don’t know when, many people came to them from a distance in an instant.

“Space jump, at this distance, they are dream steps!”

The so-called space jumping ability is actually the same ability as the flicker used by Lu Mei before.

They all make use of the overlap of the realms, and then use the changes in the spiritual body to push the errors in the realms, thereby completing the flickering teleportation.

Lu Mei can do this because she has the spirit body of the Origin Beast, which can greatly strengthen her.

And these people can do it because they are already in the Dream Level, so they can expand the ceremony venue to such a large size, forming a super long space jump.

The academic people could only gather together at this time. Looking at the members of these religious groups, fear was completely written on their faces.

"That's her!" One of them said directly after looking through the magic carriage and seeing Lu Mei, completely ignoring the members of the surrounding academic sect.

Although the academic people are strong, their strength is limited. They are just a faction of an empire.

Even the First Academy is unique in the academy and can fight back and forth with several surrounding religious groups.

There are hundreds of religious groups, and some of them are as powerful as the academic leaders. It is just because of geographical reasons that they did not rush over to kill them.

 Looking at the number of these people now, if not hundreds of sects have come, it is estimated that they are almost there.

 “Tell us, where is the free world!” One of them even released the ceremony venue, and the mysterious and ethereal aura was suppressed, making it difficult for many people around to move.

 Especially in these breaths, there are some indescribable and indescribable powers, which bring them extreme fear.

At the moment, these members of the cult still look like humans, but in their increasingly confused eyes, a huge monster that looks like a starry sky appears behind them.

Lu Mei also felt her whole body trembling at this time.

 The aura she sensed in the mine was different now for each of these people.

 In other words, these people are now the enemies of Lu Bai and Lu Zhu.

Perhaps it was because of the exposure of Lu Zhu’s identity as the so-called Zi Zaitian that so many high-level officials from the religious sect appeared here.

Lu Mei did not speak. She did not know where Lu Zhu was. She had never seen a person named Lu Zhu in the orphanage for so many years.

Although I learned from Lu Bai that his birth was closely related to Lu Zhu.

  But it is limited to knowing this.

Maybe these people in front of her know more than she does.

“Although I knew that this kind of trouble would come sooner or later, I didn’t expect it to come so quickly!” Lu Mei sighed and glanced at the people around her.

 Her figure disappeared in an instant.

As she disappeared, the masters of the sect who gathered around her immediately chased after her, completely ignoring the academic escort.

 Those so-called interests in this dimensional world have no meaning to them.

 Zizaitian and Lu Bai are the focus of everything.

They don’t know very clearly about Lu Mei’s situation. At present, it seems that Lu Zhu is just an individual created by using some of Lu Bai’s characteristics.

 He himself is a slightly talented revenant human, but to these challengers, he is nothing at all.

But for Lu Zhu to do this, there must be some kind of secret in it.

 In fact, Lu Zhu’s exposure was largely due to Lu Mei’s fame.

 After Lu Mei's fame came into the sect's sight, a divine individual immediately saw the relationship between Lu Mei and Lu Bai.

Then Lu Mei's past immediately appeared in front of many challengers in the human world.

 In the end, Lu Zhu Zi Zaitian was exposed, especially Rodela. Only then did he realize that one of his original divine descending failed because of Zi Zaitian's trouble.

 Hence this sudden attack.

Lu Mei's return to her hometown was just the right time.

  The main force of the empire's religious sect had already arrived at the Soul Beast Territory and began to search for traces of Zizaitian.

They searched for a long time but could not find it, so their eyes naturally focused on Lu Mei, a special individual.

“She is traveling to the spirit world, so go into the spirit world to chase her!”

Lu Mei's method of escaping was precisely the secret technique she had just mastered, which allowed her to completely integrate herself with her spirit world body and completely enter the spirit world!

There are 4,000 words in one update, and that’s it for today. I guess it’s been like this lately. I’ve been busy with many other things, and my work and rest have been disrupted. I’m in a very bad state. I’m really sorry.
