Clap! Clap! Clap!
Right then, Zhou Yang, who had been standing in the sky and watching everything with a smile, suddenly clapped his hands and walked out slowly.
"What a show."
Zhou Yang said leisurely.
However, the smile on his face gradually faded as he said expressionlessly, "I've seen their intelligence and wisdom, but there's something I have to clarify.
"Wanjie Lou is a place for transactions. It needs a peaceful and stable environment, not a place for people to fight with their wits.
"I'm dealing with some matters in a Great World and I was alarmed by you guys. Those who don't know might think that you're having a battle of wits to choose the strongest person in the Infinite Worlds, the wisest person in Wanjie Lou."
At this point, Zhou Yang's expression turned solemn and his voice was slightly indifferent.
"Let me emphasize once more. Wanjie Lou is a place for business and needs a peaceful and stable environment. This incident cannot be repeated. Otherwise, your right to enter Wanjie Lou will be revoked. There will be no exceptions."
After saying that, Zhou Yang's gaze lingered on the black-robed Hong Jun and Slaughter for a brief moment, giving them a meaningful look. His gaze lingered on the black-robed Hong Jun a little longer.
"Shop owner, Hong Jun attacked me first and wanted to kill me. That's why I resorted to this."
Slaughter cupped his fists slightly and explained.
It was not that he had never seen someone stronger than him. However, he had never seen someone who was comparable to Zhou Yang.
The existence of the Myriad World Tavern simply surpassed the existence of the Dao.
He knew that the fourth step of cultivation was not the end of cultivation. There were the fifth step, the sixth step, and even more after that.
For a shop to be able to connect to ten thousand worlds was simply unimaginable. He was a little bewildered. What kind of realm did a cultivator have to reach to be able to build such an unbelievable existence like the Myriad Worlds Tavern and open up the world barriers?
Slaughter still maintained the necessary respect for such a powerful person.
"Shop owner, this is definitely the bronze-masked man slandering me."
The black-robed Hong Jun was enraged.
He admitted that he had fabricated many lies and deceived many people. However, he felt that Slaughter was definitely trying to slander him.
Since when did he want to kill the man with the bronze mask? It was clearly the man with the bronze mask who had transformed into the appearance of the Chairman of the Conspiracy, Erlo, to lure the Master of Order, Ostanley.
Then, he plotted against Empyrean Thunder Punishing Zhou An and Martial Thunder God King Zhou Tong. The root of all this should be attributed to the bronze ghost mask man.
He was the one who was wronged the most. In order to save the Big Boss group, he had to resort to such a method.
"Shop owner, he first changed into the appearance of the Lord of Conspiracy, Erlo, and lured the Lord of Order, Austanley, out of Wanjie Lou. Then, he used a divine ability to confuse the Martial Thunder King, Zhou Tong, and made him seek help from the Lord of Thunder Punishment, Zhou An."
"I had no choice but to resist."
The black-robed Hong Jun said with grief and indignation. His voice was slightly hoarse as if he had suffered a great grievance.
"There's such a reason?"
When everyone heard that, they were slightly taken aback as they looked at Slaughter with slightly different gazes.
If the man with the bronze ghost mask attacked first and the black-robed Hong Jun was forced to fight back, it would be another matter.
"A Rank 10 expert actually plotted against the Lord of Order, Austanley? That's not possible, right?"
Someone was slightly doubtful.
It was just like how the rank nine experts of the Myriad Worlds Tavern rarely fought against rank eight cultivators. This was because they were on different levels. Even if they suppressed a rank eight cultivator, the resources they obtained would not be of much help to them.
Unless it was a business group like the Three Realms Mixed Yuan Group or the Three Realms Real Estate Company, they were a faction with cultivators of all levels.
On the other hand, cultivators like the Skyless Buddha Lord and the Merciless Emperor would almost never make a move to suppress cultivators of lower cultivation levels.
"Who knows? One must know that Rank 9 experts can be traded for essence points. There must be goods in Wanjie Lou that can tempt Rank 10 experts. Perhaps he didn't have enough essence points."
"If that's really the case, the Lord of Order, Austanley, is too unlucky. He only entered Wanjie Lou for a few days and was already killed."
"Empyrean Thunder Punishing Zhou An and Martial Thunder King Zhou Tong are also unlucky. They were completely implicated."
… …
Everyone could not help but discuss. At the very least, their hostility towards the black-robed Hongjun was not as intense as before.
They were facing an unfathomable schemer. They could not guarantee absolute victory, so they could only rely on external help.
At this moment, everyone's gazes towards Slaughter changed slightly. They were filled with worry and fear.
This Rank 10 expert actually attacked a Rank 9 expert in Wanjie Lou because he lacked essence points. That was too terrifying.
Could it be that there were no Rank 9 experts in the world where this Rank 10 expert came from?
Or had all the Rank 9 experts in the original world been suppressed by this Rank 10 expert?
The former did not make sense. How could a top world that could accommodate Rank 10 experts not have Rank 9 experts?
If it was the latter, it would be too terrifying. It would make one's soul tremble in fear and feel uneasy.
"Hongjun, are you interested in making a bet with me? Let's see who attacked first."
Slaughter did not remove the bronze ghost mask on his face, so his expression could not be seen. Only his slightly cold voice could be heard.
Hearing that, Hong Jun's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he was the one who attacked the man with the bronze ghost mask first?
That was impossible. He had been plotting behind the scenes all this while. He had not gone to the surface, nor had he attacked anyone.
"Perhaps someone from the group of big bosses attacked you, but you can also trap and kill everyone from the group of big bosses."
The black-robed Hongjun was silent for a moment before saying angrily.
He wanted to put himself in the position of the victim. That way, he might have some room to maneuver.
Furthermore, because of the shopkeeper's warning, no one in Wanjie Lou dared to use any tricks. He just had to be careful of the Grandmaster of Heaven and Daoist Zhunti from the original world. Then, he would be relatively safe.
"If it was just the work of one person from the group of big bosses, why would I have tried so hard to lure you out, the mastermind?"
Slaughter sneered. He gently removed the bronze ghost mask on his face, revealing a cold expression. His black eyes that made one's heart tremble swept across Hong Jun.
"Do you know him?"
Slaughter asked indifferently.
"Wang Lin?"
The black-robed Hongjun looked at that cold face and instantly recognized Slaughter. He could not help but exclaim.
Was he so unlucky? He wanted to kill Wang Lin, but he had lured out the peak Wang Lin from another world. Just like the young Linley from Wanjie Lou, he had lured out the peak Wang Lin from another world.
"Wang Lin, that person looks very similar to you."
In the Inner Realm, Han Li and Chu Yang looked at Slaughter with puzzled gazes, then at Wang Lin beside them. They spoke with some surprise.
Could this be the peak Wang Lin from another world, a Level Ten existence?
"Fellow Daoist Wang Lin, even if we wanted to kill your other self, you shouldn't have wiped out our group of big bosses. In the end, you aren't the same person."
The black-robed Hongjun took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
"You want to kill my original body. Am I not allowed to resist?"
Slaughter said coldly.
The black-robed Hongjun: "..."
Original body?
Not the Wang Lin from another world?
Wang Lin's clone was already so powerful. How powerful was his original body?
Could Wang Lin be the biggest hidden boss of Wanjie Lou?
Wang Lin: "… …"
Why do you want to kill me?
I'm the original body?
