She did not like to be seen in such a sorry state. She had always been invincible and undefeatable. Even if she was going to lose, she could not let it be too ugly. Her shoulders rose and fell in sync with her panting. Her chest rose and fell. After a while, she finally calmed down. Her thin lips opened and closed.
"Thunderblast …"
Lan Xihe muttered softly as he raised his slender fingers.
There were burn marks on his palm that resembled the roots of a tree. This was the result of resisting the Thunderblast.
It traveled through the meridians in his arm and reached his internal organs.
His index and ring fingers trembled uncontrollably.
The sun, moon, and stars appeared in his palm. The life force and Primal Qi outside the white tower gathered like a tornado.
When the light faded, the marks on his palm disappeared.
She did not like changes. She hated anything that affected her appearance and skin.
Lan Xihe exhaled softly and asked, "How powerful are you?"
…
News of the sparring match between the White Tower Master, Lan Xihe, and the Evil Sky Pavilion Master spread throughout the white tower.
Hundreds of cultivators gathered together and flew toward the peak of the snowy mountain like a long white dragon. Some of them rode on long swords, while others activated their dharmakayas.
When Lu Zhou and the others arrived at the peak of the snow mountain, they turned around and saw the white tower cultivators. Their clothes were white and blended with the white world. If one did not look closely, they would see black dots flying toward them. They were their black hair.
"Master, they don't seem convinced," Yu Zhenghai said with a smile.
Lu Zhou frowned.
"They don't know what's good for them."
On second thought, he wondered how he was going to fight so many cultivators at the moment. If they were to fall out, he did not have a Supreme Profundity Card or Peak Card.
The white-clad cultivators stopped 1,000 meters away. They watched from afar, not daring to get any closer.
Si Wuya said with a smile, "They're afraid that we won't leave and will stay here."
"It's not fun. Only a fool would stay here."
The white-clad cultivators were either wary, worried, or fearful as they watched from afar. They did not know what they were up to.
Yu Zhenghai smiled faintly. He bowed and said, "Master, there's no need for you to deal with such a trivial matter. I'll do it."
He flew forward for about ten meters.
The Jasper Saber at his waist flew into the air and pierced into the sky.
The Primal Qi gathered toward the Jasper Saber like a tornado.
Yu Zhenghai said loudly, "Who's not convinced? Step forward now."
The team of over a hundred people swayed like a weeping willow. They swallowed their saliva.
Zeng.
An energy saber bloomed.
Hundreds of thousands of energy sabers lined up neatly and formed a circular disc.
"You've misunderstood. We're here to send Pavilion Master Lu off. We don't mean to be enemies."
One of the white-robed cultivators said hurriedly.
Yu Zhenghai said.
"Really?"
"The Pagoda Master gave the order first, how could we dare to disobey?"
The energy saber vanished.
"Let's go."
Lu Zhou's expression remained calm as he stepped into the runic passageway.
He sheathed his Jasper Saber and stepped into the runic circle with the others from the Evil Sky Pavilion. With a single palm strike, a halo of light rose.
The hundred white-robed cultivators looked at each other.
"I don't believe the Tower Master will lose."
"I don't believe it either! How can the Pagoda Master lose? "
Someone at the back said, "Then go ahead and ask. If you're not afraid of the Pagoda Master's punishment, just go ahead and ask. They were clamoring for a battle to regain their face. Just one disciple has stepped forward and they're all terrified? "
"I don't like what you're saying. What do you mean by cowardice? Pavilion Master Lu is here, do you dare to go up? Just because you can't beat the old doesn't mean you can't beat the young. "
Ning Wanqing's voice came from the direction of the white tower.
"I advise you not to cause trouble. Those who act without the Tower Master's orders will be severely punished. "
The white-robed cultivators were silent.
…
After the brilliance of the rune passage faded.
Lu Zhou and the others only waited in the tunnel for a short while before they appeared in a forest.
He surveyed his surroundings and said, "Master, we're here. Red Lotus. "
Lu Zhou nodded. He turned to look at Si Wuya and said, "Open the passageway to the Evil Sky Pavilion as soon as possible."
Si Wuya said.
"I will push this matter forward with Zhao Hongfu as soon as possible. If there are no accidents, it should be completed in half a month."
At this moment.
A strange scream came from the jungle.
"There's a sound." Shen Xi's body was like a fired arrow as he floated in the middle of the forest. The halberd in his hand moved slightly as Origin Energy revolved around it.
Lu Zhou walked out of the runic tunnel.
He looked at the lush forest in the distance.
"The runic tunnel might've been discovered … However, this is the white lotus's passageway. It's not that important," Si Wuya said.
Conch raised an eyebrow and said, "It's a beast."
"A beast?"
"It seems to be calling for help."
They suddenly remembered that Conch was proficient in the language of beasts.
"Let's take a look."
The others rose into the air and flew forward.
Conch followed the sound from the forest and arrived at a bush.
The others looked down.
They saw a beast lying in the bush. Its body was covered in blood, and its aura was weak.
Si Wuya exclaimed in shock, "Yingzhao?"
It had the body of a horse and the face of a human. It had tiger inscriptions and bird wings … What was it if not Yingzhao?
The wings of the Yingzhao beast were covered in blood as well. It looked as though it had just escaped from the gates of hell.
Its mouth opened and closed as it made unintelligible sounds.
"What is it saying?" Lu Zhou asked.
"Help."
Lu Zhou looked at the Yingzhao beast with a slight frown and asked, "Who hurt you?"
Conch immediately translated at the same time.
"A beast. An even more powerful beast."
"Where is it?" Lu Zhou asked.
"South of the Fringe … Cannibalism, cannibalism, cannibalism …" Ying Zhao's voice was intermittent, causing Conch to stutter when she translated.
Lu Zhou said.
"You are a ferocious beast. Why would they attack you?"
Ying Zhao's head was flat on the ground. His mouth was slightly open, and he kept making sounds.
Conch was slightly shocked. She did not speak at the same time. Instead, she waited for Conch to finish before saying, "Master, highly intelligent beasts are similar to humans. In fact, they're even more heartless and cold-blooded than humans. The sea beasts from the southwest had invaded the land of chaos in the south. The Yingzhao side had been defeated. You … You took away its Fate Heart. After it returned, it was punished by the Beast King. It almost lost its life when it escaped this time. "
Lu Zhou understood now. He nodded and said,
"You only have yourself to blame. I advised you to stay long ago, but you insisted on returning. Also … why must you eat humans? "
Yingzhao tried his best to raise his head. His voice was much hoarser than before, and he spoke a lot more.
Conch said.
"It said that humans are delicacies in the eyes of Direbeasts. It also said that humans are the orchard of Direbeasts. If humans eat fruits, why can't Direbeasts eat humans? "
"…"
This statement rendered the others speechless.
A powerful beast looking at humans was akin to a human looking at a sheep pen. This was logical.
If that was the case, who was the one raising whom?
'What a joke, humans think they're at the top of the food chain … If Yingzhao's words are true, how crazy is this world?'
Si Wuya looked at Ying Zhao and said, "According to you, humans are already extinct, right?"
After all, Direbeasts were much more powerful than humans.
The Yingzhao School gurgled out a bunch of unintelligible notes.
The others looked at Conch and waited for her to translate.
Conch spread her hands. "Senior Brother, don't look at me … It's dying."
