The entire five years and four months in Hongdao passed in this fulfilling life.

Time came to the beginning of May.

On the third day, Zhou Qing came to Lu Yuan with a look of excitement.

“Master, I have successfully cultivated the Yangjiao Meridian and have entered the first-class realm.”

This disciple looked at his Master, stretched out his hand, mobilized his Inner Strength, and suddenly the palm of his hand turned red. This was the manifestation of the major success of the Chi Yang Divine Skill.

And the Great Achievement in martial arts meant stepping into the first-class realm.

“Very good, not bad.”

Lu Yuan looked at his disciple with a look of satisfaction and praise, meeting his disciple’s need for affirmation.

Being able to reach the first-class realm in just ten years, Zhou Qing’s cultivation progress was not slower than his own.

After all, it took Lu Yuan himself ten years of martial arts practice to break through to the first-class realm.

No matter if it was due to the Divine Blood Elixir that they, Master and apprentice, used to break through to the first-class realm—controlling this level of strength and mindset is something to be commended.

If placed in the Jianghu, everyone would have to praise the two of them for their heaven-endowed talent.

After giving his apprentice a good appraisal, Lu Yuan began to check his disciple’s cultivation and asked a few questions to make sure that there were no problems with his disciple’s mental state before he could finally relax.

His estimations were correct; Zhou Qing’s current mental limit was the first-class realm after successfully cultivating a single bizarre meridian.

At this point, he could just manage to control it, but if he went a little further, problems might arise.

So, Lu Yuan had to remind his precious disciple again not to continue cultivating the next bizarre meridian for the time being, but to spend time consolidating his existing strength and training in external martial moves.

At the same time, he assigned some homework, mainly giving Zhou Qing a few Taoist Classics to study carefully after returning.

These Taoist Classics were what Lu Yuan studied intensively back when he was breaking through to the first-class realm, and he gained a lot from them.

Now, Master can pass on these experiences to his disciple and help him avoid some detours.

After teaching the lessons, Lu Yuan looked at his now slowly calming disciple and thought of the recent urgent letters he had received. He took an official letter from his desk and handed it to Zhou Qing.

“Qing’er, since you have now broken through to the first-class realm, you can now take on more responsibility for your Master.

In the past few days, I have received several urgent letters from Prefect Cui, saying that the Five Poisons Sect and the Miao People have been attacking fiercely in recent days.

Over the past two months, three counties in Shaoyang Prefecture have been broken, and nearly 10,000 soldiers have been lost. Now the army of the Miao people is approaching Hengyang, and Shaoyang Prefecture City is in imminent danger. Lord Cui asked me to send troops to help as soon as possible.”

Lu Yuan explained the situation and then said, “I have some matters to attend to in Yuzhang Prefecture in two months, so I won’t be able to help Hengyang for the timp heinø

Initially, I was still hesitating about what to do about it.

After all, that leader of the Five Poisons Sect, Lan Zhaoyun, is said to be a

Martial Arts Expert at the peak of the first-class realm, no weaker than me. Without someone from the first-class realm to deal with him, it would be difficult to reverse the situation in Hengyang.”

Now there’s no need to worry.

You have broken through to the first-class realm, so you are more than capable of handling this on your own.

I intend for you to lead 10,000 soldiers and help Shaoyang Prefecture City.

You don’t need to defeat the Miao rebels, just hold Hengyang Prefecture City and prevent it from falling.

As long as you can hold out for three to five months, when I return from Yuzhang Prefecture, I will lead troops to reinforce you.

Are you willing to go?”

Now it is May, and in early July, Lu Yuan and Qi Yun Taoist have a time-fixed agreement to participate in the Tianluo Grand Meeting together.

This event is of great importance to Lu Yuan, as it is possibly the only way he can approach cultivation under his current conditions.

If he misses this opportunity, the next chance would be ten years later.

Although Lu Yuan doesn’t mind waiting ten years, if he can get in touch with cultivation now, why wait ten years?

He still remembers what Qi Yun and Feng Zhijie had mentioned, that the celestial spirit qi is becoming scarcer every year, and there will be less available each year.

From this point of view.

The later Lu Yuan begins to cultivate, the less celestial spirit qi he will be able to absorb when he does start cultivating.

The longer he waits, the more he loses out.

As this concerns his cultivation journey, as long as it does not affect his safety, Lu Yuan believes it’s better to seize the moment and not miss any opportunities.

So, this time he can only send Zhou Qing to help in response to Prefect Cui’s request, while he himself will go to participate in the Tianluo Grand Meeting.

“Disciple is willing.”

Zhou Qing is still that filial child, not refusing his Master’s request at all, and directly agreeing to go.

Even if he is going to face a Martial Arts Expert at the peak of the first-class realm and an army of tens of thousands.

“Very good, Xiaoqing, you did not disappoint your Master.”

Lu Yuan was satisfied with his disciple’s filial piety, but still reminded him, “When you go to Hengyang, remember my teachings. Be cautious and wary of assassinations from the Five Poisons Sect’s experts every day.

On ordinary days, unless necessary, try to stay in the barracks and be protected by the army.

As long as you have a large army following you, even if you face an innate expert, as long as you are cautious and avoid direct confrontations with them, your life will be safe.”

Zhou Qing nodded repeatedly, agreed, and said, “Disciple understands, I will be cautious and wary of assassinations by bandits.”

As Lu Yuan’s true disciple, Zhou Qing also understands the importance of caution. At this time, he naturally does not think that Master’s teachings are too timid and fearful, but as a life lesson to learn.

“Good. As long as you remember these things, your Master will not worry too much.” Lu Yuan looked at his disciple with satisfaction, feeling that this disciple was truly the most suitable inheritor of his martial arts legacy.

After arranging for Zhou Qing to help Shaoyang Prefecture City, his disciple was quick to act upon receiving the order.

He returned and took Lu Yuan’s tiger seal, preparing troops and horses for battle, and then went to find Sun Siwen to ask for his Master’s friend’s help in recruiting civilian workers and preparing military food.

After being busy for several days, everything was finally in place.

Then, on the tenth day, Lu Yuan personally marked time on the drum, sending his disciple off to war.

The army was vast, the banners fluttering in the wind, as Zhou Qing led the troops to embark on his journey..
