Outside of the Dragon Hall, the hundreds of Spirit Cultivators were nowhere to be seen.
All that was left was an empty chariot, as well as the broken pieces of magic treasures.
Fangjue stood in the air with his arms behind his back, smiling as he looked into the distance. The glow in his eyes flickered such that no one knew what he was thinking about.
Beside him stood one more person. It was a teen holding a sword.
There were dozens of Lu Hanyan's old subordinates and they were all really respectful to him.
Only this person stood shoulder to shoulder with him. It was like he didn't care about Fangjue's identity as a Saint Realm Venerable and his authority as the Cangyan Hall Head.
"I see that Young Master has no intention of fighting for the Lu Family Head position. Fangjue, it is best if your plans don't end up in vain … "
"Oh?"
Fangjue was slightly surprised and then he burst out laughing, "Before you came, weren't you really unwilling? Why did you suddenly care? "
"Since I am standing here, then you have already tied me up!"
The young man let out a cold snort. His expression also became strange. Especially his eyes which shone with a blue glow.
"Moreover, looking at Young Master, he does indeed have the talent to be the Head of 800 Worlds. If he can't return, even I will feel pity for the Sky Burning Lu Family. How can such a person be left outside? There were endless disputes within the Lu Clan. Each of them formed their own cliques, and there were signs of them falling apart. In 10,000 years, due to the internal conflicts, the elites have all died. Since Great Senior Ancestor went into seclusion to try for End Realm, there hasn't been any expansion in 3,000 years. Only such a person can rule Heaven and Earth and sweep away the Monster aura. "
"I didn't expect you to have such high hopes for him."
Fangjue laughed, his expression was really calm, "However, there is no need to worry about this matter. Let nature take its course."
"Let nature take its course?"
The teen was stunned and then he didn't understand. Let nature take its course?
Only to hear Fangjue ask, "If Young Master wants to save Little Miss, will he have a conflict with our Lu Family?"
Lu Jianxuan also understood with a hint and instantly understood. Then, he smiled as well.
"That is true! The few old antiques in the family have always placed a lot of emphasis on the family rules. Those people also won't see the day when the case of sister Hanyan will be overturned. If he harbored such ambitions, it would most likely cause quite a stir. If he really succeeded, the entire clan would be shocked. At that time, even if Young Master is unwilling … "
"Even if the Young Master is unwilling, the few Holy Venerates of our Lu Clan who live in seclusion will definitely make him do so."
Fangjue smiled, "Actually, there is no need to wait until then. At this moment, the Imperial Palace is already in chaos."
"Is it the Register of Direct Descendants?"
The young man's reaction was not bad either. His eyes narrowed dangerously. "There should still be four days until the time of the ancestor worship!"
"How could those people not be alarmed by such an unforeseen event? If he still doesn't know, then he wouldn't be qualified to hold the power of the Lu Family! At this moment, they were probably investigating the young master's background. Even the transfer order is on its way. "
Fangjue said leisurely, "Therefore, Young Master's trouble has already arrived. It's most likely going to happen in a few days. "
Lu Jianxuan frowned, "Are you not afraid of destroying the Young Lord?"
"I am helpless. You don't think that I have the ability to make this happen, right?"
One couldn't see any helplessness on Fangjue's face. Instead, he was a little excited.
"However, to the Young Master, it might not be a bad thing. Like how spirit masters refine swords, some sword embryos aren't of much use and would break if they were slightly forged. Some sword embryos would become sharper the more they are forged! "
As he said this, he smiled as he looked into the air, "Old friend, am I right?"
In the air, a dissatisfied snort could be heard.
Fangjue didn't care at all. Instead, he laughed out loud.
In just a moment, a golden light broke through the layers of worlds and landed in front of Fangjue.
It was a purple-gold talisman. Without Fangjue taking it, it opened up on its own.
It didn't cover up, but only Fangjue could see the runes within.
In just a few breaths, his face was filled with a cold mocking expression.
He waved his sleeves, causing the talisman to burn without a flame.
"I really guessed it right! Country Ruler Xuanhua ordered me to move the army to accompany him to conquer Guiming World … "
Lu Jianxuan's face sunk, his expression was really solemn. Then, he looked into the Dragon Hall silently.
Moving Fangjue away, was he already prepared to act? What fast movements, what ruthless methods!
He wondered if this distant cousin of his would be able to survive this storm.

Pretty much at the same time, within the Instant Space Dragon Hall. A pair of twin sisters who had separated from Zong Shou not long ago stared at one another with their eyes wide open.
After a moment of standstill, Ye Feishuang couldn't take it anymore and tilted her head away guiltily. She said in an annoyed tone, "Anyway, that fellow isn't a good person!"
However, for some reason, under Ye Feihan's serious and determined gaze, Ye Feishuang felt short of breath. Her voice was also lacking in energy.
"With his ability, he could have dealt with those scum in just a few swords. Why did he have to drag it out until then …"
"No, if he didn't wait for Zhuya Hongji, that bastard, to expose himself, you would probably still treat him as your big brother!"
Ye Feihan scoffed and didn't think much of it, "Moreover, from start to finish, Brother Shou didn't try to hide it! You are the one who misunderstood, but you still want to blame others! Mother said that you have to judge yourself before you judge others. Didn't we hide things from Brother Shou? "
"Mother again? Also, he is obviously younger than you! "
Ye Feishuang rubbed her forehead with a headache. She noticed that she was becoming more and more helpless with her sister.
A moment later, she sighed with a lonely expression.
"It isn't that I am unwilling, but that I have already troubled him too much. I feel that it is inappropriate to ask him for help with our matters. In the future, when we meet him, we will be lower than him … "
"So that is the case. You are worried that Brother Shou will look down on you?"
Ye Feihan covered her lips and gave out a weird smile, "I don't think it is bad! If Brother Shou treats us as friends, he will naturally help. If not, or if it is inconvenient, he will reject it. There's nothing wrong with asking. It's just that you're thinking too much! "
Ye Feishuang's face flushed red and then she entered deep thought.
Did she really need to ask Zong Shou to help? With his current strength that could suppress Celestial Realm Experts and his identity as the Young Master of the Lu Family … Those matters could really be easily resolved.
However, was that really appropriate? Or was she thinking too much?
A moment later, she shook her head, "I still need to think about this matter …"
In her heart, she was still a little unwilling. She really didn't want to owe Zong Shou more.
※ ※ ※
"As expected, I can't take it off!"
Within the hall that was filled with dragon bones, Zong Shou's brows were furrowed.
He thought of all sorts of methods, even letting Little Gold try to swallow this half of the Juntian Flame Armor, but to no avail.
"You fellow, who asked you to be so greedy? When I needed you, you couldn't help … "
Zong Shou used his hand to viciously smack Little Gold's body, and the latter's face also revealed a wronged expression.
At this moment, Little Gold had turned into a jelly state once more. As for his body, it had also grown by more than ten times.
It was even a head taller than Zong Shou. Its body looked soft, but when Zong Shou smacked it, he could feel that it was really hard. The recoil caused his hand to feel numb.
Who knows how much spiritual iron it had swallowed. Anyways, it looked like it had eaten too much and couldn't digest it, unable to move.
That little puppy ran around Little Gold. It used its claws to trample on Little Gold's body. Occasionally, it would raise its head and laugh out loud like it was gloating.
In the past, Little Gold had played with this puppy so badly. Now that it could bully it back, it was naturally delighted.
Zong Shou sighed. There was nothing he could do about the Juntian Flame Armor on his body.
Just now, he tried. Only when his spiritual sense charged into the armor to go against the remnant spiritual sense of Ranwu King, did he manage to loosen the locks on the joints.
It was most probably like the Avici Throne, needing to totally wipe out the mark of the previous master to be able to truly control it.
"There is another way, which is to chop off my hands. I don't believe that I can't take it off …"
His heart was filled with hatred, hesitating whether or not to attack. Zong Shou had an idea and focused on his hands once more.
He saw that the Juntian Flame Armor was slowly merging into his skin. That Heaven Covering Flame was nowhere to be seen.
Touching it with his hands, not only could he see the texture of his skin, but there was also no difference when he touched it.
It was like this set of armor didn't exist.
However, with a thought from Zong Shoxin, this half set of armor appeared once more.
"It can actually do that?"
Although this armor was really simple, apart from runes, there were no other patterns or decorations. However, it had many uses.
Zong Shou didn't bother much about it. Actually, this was the only thing he could do now.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. On a whim, he only felt numerous evil intentions surging over from the void.
It caused Zong Shou to nearly suffocate. Who knows where it came from …
Was it because of this Juntian Flame Armor? It most probably had nothing to do with that. Instead, the bloodline in his body was restless. That was the Lu Family Sky Burning Blood …
Zong Shou was startled. He finally understood. He finally understood why he felt that something wasn't right.
Why did he feel like he was schemed against by Fangjue?
A kid with no background and no strength. Even if he was in the Lu Family direct bloodline register, he wouldn't have the right to fight with the elites of the Lu Family.
Those people in power in the Lu Family probably wouldn't care either.
However, once he had the support of his mother's old forces and the help of the Cangyan God Hall, the meaning would be totally different.
Zong Shou couldn't help but grind his teeth. No wonder when he rejected outside of the Dragon Hall, Fangjue didn't say anything to persuade him.
That was because he knew that even if Zong Shou didn't fight, others might not let him off …
This person's thoughts were really terrifying!
An extreme sense of danger rose up in his heart.
His background in the Cloud World was something that others could easily find out. This time, if he couldn't grasp more strength before the danger arrived, he might really die … If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
