Chapter 1124: Too Arrogant
Flying beasts flew over in the sky.
Lan Xihe raised her arms again. The Sun, Moon, and Star Wheel rapidly released its energy into the surroundings.
The enormous power sent the fierce beasts flying and some beasts were immediately cleaved into two. Severed limbs and blood rained down from the sky in just an instant.
Mu Ertie flashed like a phantom as he flew over. His fists that shone with red light rained down like a storm.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Lan Xihe glanced at Mu Ertie’s fists as she defended against them while retreating. “The Hades Ring is a rare treasure that can greatly boost one’s strength. Rumor has it that my White Tower Council’s Judge Nangong Yutian’s Hades Ring is in your possession…”
Lan Xihe stopped moving suddenly as the Sun, Moon, and Star Wheel released its energy again.
Mu Ertie stopped as well. He said with a sneer, “Wasn’t that a fake masquerading as my Hades Ring?”
“Nangong Yutian used the Hades Ring to defeat many experts. Later on, it fell into Pavilion Master Lu’s hand, but it was slightly damaged. Has no one told you the Hades Ring is actually a pair of rings in ancient times?”
“…” Mu Ertie frowned.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the north of Jianbei Circuit and the two mountains, a huge creature descended from the sky, causing the earth to shake. It had the body and claws of a tiger with nine tails, and its face resembled a human.
All the fierce beasts immediately retreated to the sides, opening up a huge path.
“Lu Wu?” Lan Xihe frowned.
Lu Wu was the beast emperor’s name.
Lu Wu sat on its haunches before it opened its mouth and spat out a human word. “Kill.”
The fierce beasts obediently charged forward from all directions.
At the same time, Lan Xihe flashed and returned to the red flying chariot.
When Mu Ertie saw this, he said with a sinister smile, “It’s too late…”
An energy fist shot over.
Lan Xihe moved her hand. The Sun, Moon, and Star Wheel split into two; one in her right hand, and one in her left hand.
At the same time, Lan Xihe’s avatar appeared in the air. The astrolabe that hung behind it flashed with 13 Birth Charts.
Energy crackled around Lan Xihe’s hair that was dozens of feet long. Her hair fluttered in the air, revealing a miniature white sun and moon that had appeared on her forehead.
Following that, energy seals shot out in all directions.
Those within 1,000 meters of the red flying chariot were instantly killed; those who were in the range of the light from the Sun, Moon, and Star Wheel were temporarily blinded; those who were hit by the energy seals were immediately crushed to pieces.
After the energy dissipated and the light dimmed, Lan Xihe said indifferently, “Go.”
Buzz!
Mu Ertie moved and manifested his avatar to block the red flying chariot’s path. The Hades King in his possession had lit up earlier, allowing him to block Lan Xihe’s shocking attack.
Lu Wu stood up and walked between the two mountains.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
It raised its paw and swiped at one of the mountains, destroying it immediately.
Boom!
It raised its paws again and swiped at the remaining mountain.
Boom!
With two swipes of its paws, the two mountains were immediately flattened.
No longer blocked by the towering mountain of corpses, the Li Li swarmed toward Jianbei Circuit with the newly paved ‘road’ on both sides of the mountain of corpses.
Upon seeing this, Mu Ertie’s eyes shone with joy. The Hades Ring shone faintly as he flew horizontally toward the red flying chariot; his speed was greatly enhanced by the Hades Ring. He punched his right fist out as he flew.
An energy fist shot out.
“I’ll take care of this…” Ning Wanqing volunteered.
“No need.” Lan Xihe placed her hand on her chest for a moment as though she was sensing something. Then, she sighed softly, muttering to herself, “You know you can’t interfere, and yet, you insist on interfering…”
It seemed like she was chiding herself; her tone was a little strange as well.
Then, she shook her head and continued muttering to herself, “Lan Xihe, you’re really stupid.”
Mu Ertie roared, “I gave you a chance earlier!”
The energy fist with the force of lightning seemed capable of tearing space itself shot forward.
Just as the energy fist was about to land on the red flying chariot…
Boom!
A bolt of lightning struck down at Mu Ertie from the heavens.
Mu Ertie was instantly sent flying back hundreds of meters. When he found his footing, he looked up.
Ying Zhao, carrying Lu Zhou on its back, descended from the clouds.
Lu Zhou had one hand resting on his back as he pointed at Mu Ertie with the other hand and said, “Mu Ertie, I finally found you…”
As soon as Lu Zhou landed, he looked at his merit points.
Merit points: 365, 760
He still had a few item cards left. He had to deal with this matter calmly and cautiously. To end this, he had to deal with the leader. As long as he dealt with the big bosses, Lan Xihe would be able to deal with everything else; the enemies’ numbers would not matter once their leaders were gone.
It was unfortunate the death chance was not triggered when he used the Thunderblast Card on Mu Ertie earlier.
Meanwhile, when Lan Xihe and the others saw Lu Zhou, they were overjoyed.
“Pavilion Master Lu.”
Lu Zhou did not respond. He only glanced at Duanmu Sheng who was lying on the deck calmly. Duanmu Sheng seemed to be hanging onto his last breath at this moment.
Mu Ertie, the Black Emperor, frowned and said, “I have no enmity with the Evil Sky Pavilion; why do you have to oppose me?”
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, “I should be asking you this question.”
“The Evil Sky Pavilion is far away in the golden lotus domain. I want the red lotus domain; what does it have to do with the Evil Sky Pavilion?” Mu Ertie asked.
“Let me ask you: who is Great Tang’s emperor?”
“Isn’t it that little brat, Li Yunzheng?”
“Li Yunzheng is my granddisciple. How can I stay idle?” Lu Zhou said.
“…”
How could Mu Ertie be unaware of this? However, he did not expect the other party would be so direct.
“Since that’s the case, we’ll have to see what happens in the end…” Mu Ertie waved his hand.
Countless black cultivators flew up from behind the beast tide. Almost everyone from Great Yuan’s royal court and the Dark and Light Alliance was present.
Fan Ruozhi, the Master of the Dark and Light Alliance, appeared in the sky with a flash and said, “Your Majesty.”
Mu Ertie looked at Lu Zhou and smugly said, “Pavilion Master Lu, the beast emperor is here. Even if Lan Xihe helps you, you have no chance of winning…”
Lu Zhou ignored Mu Ertie and asked Fan Ruozhi, “Fan Ruozhi, how many of my moves do you think you’ll be able to withstand?”
Fan Ruozhi said, “If I’m the only one, I’ll have to admit defeat. I’ll lose in fewer than ten moves. Pavilion Master, there’s no need for you to say anything anymore since we have different stances…”
Lu Zhou asked, “Mu Ertie, how long do you think this nine-tailed beast can last against me?’
“Muerte, how many moves do you think this nine-tailed beast can last against me?”
“…” Mu Ertie’s eyelids twitched. It was one thing for Lu Zhou to look down on him and Fan Ruozhi, but Lu Zhou did not consider Lu Wu an opponent.
Lu Wu clearly understood Lu Zhou’s words. It crouched and muttered a few words in its powerful voice. “Weak little reptile…”
Humans treated fierce beasts like animals while Lu Wu saw humans as reptiles.
Ying Zhao shivered and shrank back slightly.
Lan Xihe said, taking the initiative to delegate the tasks, “Its intelligence is rather high. It can imitate and understand human language to a certain extent. Pavilion Master Lu, I’ll deal with Lu Wu. You deal with Mu Ertie, Fan Ruozhi, and the others…”
Lu Zhou would much prefer to deal with Lu Wu. At most, he would have to use four Deadly Strike Cards. It would be difficult to deal with so many black lotus cultivators and fierce beasts. Even the Supreme Mystic Card might not be able to kill so many people at once; the duration of the effect was too short after all.
“Just guard the red flying chariot,” Lu Zhou finally said. He tapped his feet and rose higher into the sky. Then, he swept his gaze across Lu Wu, Fan Ruozhi, and Mu Ertie before he asked, “Who’s responsible for the Li Lis?”
Lu Zhou recalled he had briefly seen a black figure near the Star Gathering Formation when he was observing Duanmu Sheng and the four elders. That person should be present.
At this moment, a black-clad cultivator raised his head and said, “It’s me, Zhe Bieli, one of the Five Tigers of the Dark and Light Alliance…”
Lu Zhou nodded and said, “My disciple fended the Li Lis off, and his life’s at stake now. What’s your explanation?”
Zhe Bieli did not dare to speak recklessly. Everyone present was a big shot.
Fan Ruozhi spread his arms and said, “Zhe Bieli is my right-hand man. I ordered him to release the Li Lis here. It wasn’t my intention to kill your disciple, but he insisted on interfering and fought the Li Lis. If he didn’t insist on hindering His Majesty’s plan, this wouldn’t have happened…”
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, “As the Master of the Dark and Light Alliance, you lack control over your subordinate. This debt should be on you…”
Fan Ruozhi cupped his fists together and said perfunctorily, “You’re right. I admit my fault. If we disagree on some things, then let’s not waste time talking about it. I’m sorry, Pavilion Master Lu.”
“The person who left a message in the runic passage that day was you as well?”
“You can say that. The matters of the Five Tigers are all on me.” Fan Ruozhi shrugged.
“Then, you have to die.” An enhanced Deadly Strike Card appeared in Lu Zhou’s hand.
At this moment, Lu Wu raised its head to the sky and roared.
The fierce beasts moved like a tide in an instant.
“Pavilion Master Lu, don’t you think you’re too arrogant?” Fan Ruozhi said as he retreated. He was determined not to fight Lu Zhou head-on. With so many cannon fodders around, he wanted to see who was going to remain standing in the end.
