Black Emperor Zhi Guangji's reputation in the north of the Endless Ocean was self-evident. In the Primordial Era 100,000 years ago, he was one of the Great Void's Five Emperors. After ascending to the top, Underworld Monarch stood above the gods and no longer participated in the ranking of the five monarchs. The name of the five monarchs no longer existed.
Temple rarely interfered with the matters of the Ten Palaces, after the Great Void Ascension, Temple was most concerned about the balance, as long as the balance was not broken, Temple would not interfere. The Ten Temples were weak, but the Holy Temple was stronger. Therefore, the Black Emperor still had a certain amount of power in the Great Void.
A hundred thousand years had passed, and the Black Emperor had indeed been in seclusion, making great progress in his cultivation.
Now that he had returned to the Great Void Mystic Locust, apart from obtaining the Great Void Seed, he was also announcing to the Great Void that the Black Deity Juice Light Era was returning to the Great Void.
It was a pity that this plan was ruined today.
After Zhi Guangji negated the power of Lu Zhou's powerful attack and regained his composure, blood began to trickle down the corners of his eyes, ears, and mouth.
He was bleeding from his seven orifices.
Zhi Guangji kept sucking in air.
"Why … is there a shadow of him?" Zhi Guangji's eyes were filled with bewilderment and shock.
The Hourglass of Time, his way of doing things, and this thunderous strike were all very similar to that expert who had dominated the Great Void.
"Your Majesty!"
Behind him, his subordinates hurriedly flew over.
Zhi Guangji stopped his heavy breathing and straightened his back. His aura fluctuated, and the wisps of blood in his seven orifices turned into steam and drifted away with the wind.
It was as if nothing had happened.
"Your Majesty, are … are you alright?"
The speed at which he flew just now was too fast. No matter how one looked at it, it was a little like he was escaping.
Zhi Guangji snorted coldly and said in a dignified tone, "I don't want to start a massacre just yet. Xuan Ke is backed by the Saint Palace. We can't act recklessly. "
"In that case, who is the person who fought with you? Since he's so arrogant, we must eliminate him!"
Zhi Guangji shook his head.
"Even though this man's cultivation base is far inferior to mine, I can sense that Xuan Ke and some other powerful experts are here."
An expert?
The man's expression slightly changed as he said: "Your Majesty is wise! I was secretly observing from the side and felt that something was wrong. Now that Your Majesty mentioned it, it really is the case. "
The Black Emperor snorted coldly and pointed at the mountain peak that he had just destroyed.
"This Emperor will let them be complacent for now. If I really kill them, it will instead help Ming Xin. This Emperor won't fall for their tricks."
"Your Majesty has great foresight. I'm too shallow … What should we do next?"
"Let's return to Ruoshui first. When the time is right, this Emperor will definitely kill them all." Zhi Guangji said.
"Yes, I believe that five days from now will be the best opportunity. The Sanctum Sanctum will not have the time to attend to the Ten Palaces as the fight for the Hall Head is imminent!"
"No."
Zhi Guangji raised his hand and said solemnly, "This matter needs to be discussed at length. Five days is far from enough."
"Then … ten days?" the subordinate asked tentatively.
"Five years." Zhi Guangji said solemnly. He then added, "No one is allowed to disturb This Emperor for the next three days."
"Yes."
As soon as he finished speaking, he flew into the sky and disappeared in a flash.
…
Xuan Ke.
Lu Zhou descended like a feather.
Zhang He removed the restraints on Zhu Honggong and descended as well.
Zhu Honggong brushed the mud off his face. He was not bothered by the strange looks from the others. He cupped his fist at Lu Zhou and said loudly, "Greetings, master!"
'Master?'
Lu Zhou's expression remained the same. He looked at Zhu Honggong calmly and said, "Do you still have any respect for me?"
"Huh?"
Zhu Honggong looked up and said, "Master, what are you talking about? Not only do I have eyes for you, but my heart is filled with you as well …"
"What a glib tongue. Get up!" Lu Zhou said gruffly.
"Thank you, master."
Zhu Honggong rose to his feet and smiled at the others.
Imperial Emperor Xuan Pin was slightly taken aback. He walked up to Lu Zhou and asked in a hushed voice, "Is … is this really Pavilion Master Lu's disciple?"
Lu Zhou nodded lightly. He sighed slightly and said, "That rascal is a good-for-nothing. It's hard for him to rise to the top."
"No, no, no." Imperial Emperor Xuan Pin said, "A man has to do what he should and shouldn't do. He's a true hero if he's able to take it and let it go. I, on the other hand, think that he's quite talented. "
Zhu Honggong gave Imperial Emperor Xuan Pin a thumbs-up. He was so touched that tears streamed down his face as he said, "You … You know me well, Imperial Emperor Xuan Pin …"
As he spoke, he walked toward Imperial Emperor Xuan Pin.
"What are you doing?" Imperial Emperor Xuan Pin felt that the atmosphere was off.
"Thank you for speaking up for me, Imperial Emperor Xuan Pin!"
"It's my duty." Imperial Emperor Xuan Pin felt slightly regretful.
At this moment, Lu Zhou pointed at Zhu Honggong and said, "You … come in with me."
"Yes, master. If master tells me to go east, I won't dare to go west! I'm coming! "
Zhu Honggong respectfully followed Lu Zhou into the great hall.
Since the master and disciple were going to have a private conversation, the others were, naturally, too embarrassed to follow them.
Shortly after that, a series of wails and howls rang from the great hall. There were also the sounds of collisions.
This went on for some time before it finally quieted down.
The Daoist child frowned. He turned around and said, "Is your master this hot-tempered?"
Based on their previous interactions, he seemed gentle and approachable.
Little Yuan 'er and Conch nodded at the same time. However, they felt that something was amiss and shook their heads in unison.
The two young girls seemed to have discussed this beforehand.
Little Yuan 'er said, "Perhaps, Eighth Senior Brother is touched by master's actions. It's been a long time since master hit someone."
"It's been a long time since he hit someone?"
The Daoist child caught on to the loophole in Little Yuan 'er's words.
Little Yuan 'er placed her hands on her hips and said, "You're so annoying. You're asking all sorts of questions. You're everywhere!"
The Daoist child realized he had almost exposed himself again. He smiled awkwardly and said nothing more.
At this moment, Imperial Emperor Xuan Pin ordered, "Have the Dark Armor Guards clean up this mess. Nobody is to speak of this matter. Anyone who disobeys will be severely punished."
"Understood!"
A large number of cultivators flew out of the Mystic Pin Temple.
…
Inside the hall.
Lu Zhou stood with his hands on his back as he looked at Zhu Honggong who was covered in mud.
Zhu Honggong touched the wounds on his face. He shrunk back and said, "Master, you've misunderstood me. I've given my life to the Holy Temple to protect myself. I'm just putting on a show for them. "
"Show?" Lu Zhou looked at Zhu Honggong in confusion.
Zhu Honggong nodded and said, "I swear! If I've truly betrayed you, I wouldn't have come to Xuan Pin. "
"You know I'm here?" Lu Zhou asked.
"I don't," Zhu Honggong replied, "But my two junior sisters are in Xuan Pin."
"What are you doing in Xuan Pin?"
"The Holy Temple wants me to investigate what's going on here. The Holy Temple has the Scales of Fairness and can sense it. I didn't expect to see you here. I thought … "Zhu Honggong did not dare to finish his sentence.
"You think I'm dead?" Lu Zhou followed up on his words.
"I wouldn't dare!"
Zhu Honggong prostrated himself on the ground. "After you, Fourth Senior Brother, and Qin Yuan left Fragrance Valley, something big happened. Fourth Senior Brother said you were caught in the battle between Great Emperor Tu Wei and the Fiend God and fell into the abyss. "
"Old Fourth said that?" Lu Zhou asked.
"It's true. That Fiend God is too evil. He's not a good person. He even tried to ambush Saint Duanmu," Zhu Honggong said as though he had witnessed everything.
"Hm?" Lu Zhou frowned and dragged out his words.
"Saint Duanmu told me that himself as well …"
Lu Zhou reprimanded him, "It's not up to you to judge whether the Fiend God is evil or not. You'll never amount to anything if you only listen to hearsay and go with the flow!"
Smack!
Zhu Honggong hastily slapped himself and said, "You're right, master. I'm just listening to what they say. I don't believe them at all!"
"…"
Lu Zhou asked, "Did you just say that Saint Duanmu is Duanmu Dian?"
"That's him." Zhu Honggong forced a smile and said, "He's back in the Great Void. He's been taking good care of me."
Lu Zhou nodded.
During the battle with Great Emperor Tu Wei, he had protected Duanmu Dian. Although he saw Duanmu Dian's tombstone above the abyss and knew he was still alive, he did not expect Duanmu Dian to return to the Great Void. He did not expect Duanmu Dian to return to the Great Void.
This was good. At least, they could look out for each other.
Lu Zhou asked, "Where is he now?"
"After Duanmu Dian collapsed, the Holy Temple transferred him to Tu Wei for the sake of him guarding the Tian Qi realm for many years. Coincidentally, Tu Wei is lacking manpower," Zhu Honggong said.
"Tu Wei?"
Zhu Honggong nodded. He looked to his left and right before he covered his mouth and said cautiously and mysteriously, "Master, he's now … working under Seventh Senior Brother."
