Longevity And Romance Begin With The Redemption Of A Good Family

Chapter 369 Tianya City Built In Tianya

With the addition of Bai Xiaoxi, Lu Yu and Ling Tianxin finally successfully passed through the ancient ruins' grand array at the entrance.

After entering the valley from the grand array, a magnificent city came into view.

The city walls were over ten meters high, and the buildings inside were stacked layer upon layer, too numerous to count.

Just from the appearance, this was definitely a city with over a hundred thousand people.

"This... This city is too big, much larger than Wansheng City. But why is such a big city devoid of people?"

Seeing such a large city, Ling Tianxin was so astonished that her mouth couldn't close.

"Since this place has become a ruin, there must have been some major changes. Let's be careful."

Lu Yu looked at the city while speaking.

The group climbed up the small hill next to the valley and looked down. The entire city came into their view.

From the current perspective, the city had experienced at least several hundred years of history.

The inside and outside of the city walls were covered in weeds, and even the sturdy walls had collapsed in several places.

After looking at the hillside for a while, they didn't see any living creatures in the entire city except for plants.

"It's really strange. Should we go down and take a look?"

After all, they came here to explore this ancient ruin. If they wanted to obtain rewards, they had to go inside and take a look.

Ling Tianxin still felt a little uneasy and looked towards Lu Yu, asking.

"Let's go. I have a feeling that we might gain something today."

Lu Yu nodded and walked towards the city first.

Ling Tianxin followed closely behind him, and the three of them walked towards the city together.

Previously, because of the protection array, they had walked for half a day without getting close to the valley. But now, with Bai Xiaoxi's help in dealing with the array, their progress was much faster.

In just a short while, the three of them arrived at the city gate.

"Tianya City? A city built at the edge of the world? Have you heard of it?"

Looking up at the huge sign on the city gate, Lu Yu turned around and looked at Ling Tianxin and Bai Xiaoxi.

But when he turned around, he found that both of them were gaping in astonishment.

"Hey, don't scare me, you two. I'm timid."

"Have you never heard of Tianya City?"

Bai Xiaoxi looked up at the ancient sign with a nostalgic expression and asked.

"Tianya City? Never heard of it."

Lu Yu shook his head.

He didn't know much about this world. These places had nothing to do with him.

He was just a small cultivator at the Foundation Building stage. He hadn't even figured out his own cultivation, and there were so many alchemy techniques waiting for him to learn. How could he have the time to look at these things?

"Tianya City is the city where the powerful expert Tianya Jushi, who is said to be in the Void God realm, resides. This city is sealed within a void and powered by Tianya Jushi's spiritual energy."

"Because it is powered by Tianya Jushi's spiritual energy, this city should have been destroyed in the void when Tianya Jushi fell. But what's going on now?"

Ling Tianxin, coming from a prominent family, was familiar with these allusions.

But the more familiar she was, the more surprised she became.

Because this city should not exist in the world at all.

"There are a few possibilities. Either the legend is false, and the operation of this city has nothing to do with Tianya Jushi; or this city has other sources of energy; or there are other people responsible for driving this city... These are the three possibilities I can think of."

"In any case, the appearance of this city is indeed a mystery. Let's go in and take a look. Tianya Jushi has a good reputation, so there shouldn't be any harmful traps in this city."

While introducing the situation of Tianya City, Ling Tianxin took the lead and entered the city with long strides.

After entering Tianya City through a tunnel-like city gate, Lu Yu and his companions discovered that it was even more desolate than they had imagined.

The ground was covered in weeds, and there were hardly any intact houses left, most of them having collapsed.

The houses they had seen outside the city were probably the only ones still standing in the entire city.

Entering such a city, apart from the grass, the only thing that could be felt was a sense of desolation.

"Besides the grass, there are no signs of any living creatures. It feels a bit eerie here."

Ling Tianxin, being a woman after all, was afraid and held onto Lu Yu's arm in this situation.

As for his other arm, it was being pulled by Bai Xiaoxi.

With two beautiful women pulling him, and four bear cubs rubbing against his arm, Lu Yu, who had been focused on observing his surroundings, couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.

It's quite enjoyable!

Just as he was squinting his eyes and enjoying the soft touch, a flash of white light caught his peripheral vision.

"Hmm?"

Lu Yu opened his eyes wide and looked to the right.

He saw a white cat suddenly stop not far from them, turn around, and softly meow at them.

"Meow..."

"Hiss..."

Bai Xiaoxi, being a fox, was very sensitive, and the sound made her fur stand on end.

"How can there be a cat? Let's follow and take a look!"

Ling Tianxin was overjoyed at the sight of the white cat.

It was the first living creature they had seen in the entire city, so they naturally wanted to study it carefully.

She let go of Lu Yu's arm and chased after the white cat without looking back.

"Wait, don't chase after it so quickly!"

Lu Yu reached out to try and pull her back, but she was so fast that he didn't even touch her clothes.

"Forget it, let's go together and take a look!"

Seeing Ling Tianxin running faster and faster, Lu Yu could only chase after her with Bai Xiaoxi.

They had come in together, so even if something happened, it would be better to have more people to take care of each other.

In this way, the three of them chased after the white cat all the way into the depths of the city.

Along the way, Ling Tianxin pursued the white cat as if she had found her prey.

Meanwhile, Lu Yu gradually realized that something was not quite right.

The outer part of the city was only filled with weeds and some collapsed houses.

But in the inner circle of the city, there seemed to be traces of human activity.

For example, the weeds on the road had been trampled to form a path, and some walls had obviously been recently repaired.

"Could it be that there are still people in Tianya City?"

As Lu Yu speculated, he followed Ling Tianxin and the white cat into the central building of the city.

This was the center of the entire Tianya City, a very large building.

When Lu Yu looked at it from the outside, he estimated that it was at least thirty to forty meters high!

The entrance they entered was the main gate, and after entering, there was a corridor several tens of meters long.

"What is this cat leading us to? Tianxin, wait for us and be careful!"

Lu Yu had originally planned to calm down first, but to his surprise, Ling Tianxin seemed to not hear him at all and rushed into the corridor.
