Obviously …
Before the Temple of Great Emptiness arrived, the grand ceremony seemed to have reached an important stage.
Lu Zhou looked to his left and right.
Zhao Yue was nowhere to be seen.
However, the monks from the Temple of Great Emptiness had arrived. The Righteous Sect, Clarity Sect, and Fiend Temple were all present. Zhao Yue should be in the holy altar.
Little Yuan 'er, on the other hand, looked excited. She loved this kind of lively scene. She looked around without any fear.
While Lu Zhou was observing …
A figure appeared next to Lu Zhou.
"Sir, step back a little."
'Jiang Aijian?'
Lu Zhou was slightly speechless.
It was said that this guy's pursuit of the sword had become abnormal. Now, it seemed that the rumors were true. However, with his style of cherishing his life, he actually dared to come to the Holy Altar. He was quite bold.
Jiang Aijian glanced at the cultivators on the holy altar's plaza. Their expressions were grim as he said, "Old mister, if it weren't for that sword, I wouldn't have come to this place."
Lu Zhou's expression was calm. He said nothing.
His gaze landed on the monk, Kong Xuan, who had landed in the middle of the square.
Jiang Aijian said in a low voice, "Let's leave this place while we still can."
"Hm?" Lu Zhou was slightly puzzled. He felt that there was a hidden meaning behind his words.
Jiang Aijian looked to his left and right before he said in a hushed tone, "The monks will seal the holy altar soon. Old Sir … The altar is just a cover, and the Holy Maiden is just a bait … "
Lu Zhou was puzzled, but his expression did not change. He asked, "You knew it was a trap?"
"If I sell you the sword, I'll tell you this … You're only at the middle stage of the Sense Condensing realm. If you don't leave now, no one will be able to save you." He looked at the slanting sun. "This is your last chance to live."
Lu Zhou was amused. He stroked his beard and said, "Don't you want me to die?"
"No, no, no … I cherish my life the most. I really want that sword, but a gentleman loves a sword, and he must obtain it in the right way. Look at the plaza … "Jiang Aijian gestured to his left and right. He clicked his tongue and shook his head." They're all short-lived. Old Mister, you're a good man. A good man should live long … "
"I'm a good person?"
The Good Guy Card caught him off guard.
Jiang Aijian said with a smile, "That sword is very good. As its master, he won't be bad either."
This logic …
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "There are so many elites … What can the Temple of Great Emptiness do?"
Jiang Aijian shook his head. He pointed at the Righteous Sect and Clarity Sect and said, "Old Mister, take a closer look … None of the Clarity Sect and Righteous Sect's cultivators above the elder rank are present. The Fiend Temple only sent their Third Seat … They're not strong enough. "
His gaze swept across the area.
Under the two flags.
Many of the seats were indeed empty.
Jiang Aijian frowned and said, "They're currently being held back by elites. It's good enough that they're still alive. Yet, they still want to come to the holy altar?"
Lu Zhou looked at Jiang Aijian indifferently. 'This fellow must have some tricks up his sleeve to be able to gain a foothold in the cultivation world. He's well-informed.'
At this moment.
In the middle of Altar Square.
Kong Xuan bowed at the disciple of the Righteous Sect who had been making a ruckus earlier and said, "Zhao Yue is the Evil Sky Pavilion's villain … Her sins are grave. Several years ago, Master Kongming was killed by him. If the Temple of Great Emptiness brings her back, the Buddha will purify her of her sins and allow her to be reborn as a human. "
The disciple from the Righteous Sect leaped up and said angrily, "The Demoness is the public enemy of the Righteous Path. Your Temple of Great Emptiness has never asked about this, but today, you suddenly jumped out and pretended to be benevolent. Ptooey!"
As soon as these words came out.
The cultivators on the right path burst into laughter.
The Fiend Temple was the only one who remained silent.
Lu Zhou looked over.
The Fiend Temple's Second Seat, Zuo Xinchan, was killed by him. It was logical for them to hold a grudge against the Evil Sky Pavilion and vent their anger on him.
To his surprise, the Fiend Temple had actually sent the Third Seat here.
Lu Zhou did not know this person. He had never seen this person before. It was probably because he wasn't important enough for Ji Tiandao to remember him.
。
Kong Xuan didn't get angry. Instead, he swept his gaze over.
He said indifferently, "I'm not here to ask for your permission … I'm here to inform all of you. The Evil Sky Pavilion's villain, Zhao Yue, must be taken away from the Temple of Great Emptiness. "
"That depends on whether you have the ability or not."
A figure suddenly jumped out from one of the square formations.
The sword in his hand swung as sword qi shot out.
The crowd exclaimed in surprise.
They attacked without warning!
Jiang Aijian glanced at them. He shook his head and said, "They're just cannon fodder. The Great Meditation Mantra has the effect of reducing intimidation. These people's Qi and blood are in a mess. It's good enough that they can unleash 30% of its power. "
Lu Zhou looked on calmly as well.
As long as he did not see Zhao Yue, everything else had nothing to do with him.
Little Yuan 'er was happy to see this. She clapped along with the people from the Righteous Path … They were even more righteous than the Righteous Path.
As expected …
The sword qi of the cultivator who jumped up struck Kong Xuan's head. Whizz!
Kong Xuan's kasaya shone with a faint golden light.
It was as though he had grown taller by 10 feet!
"Arhat Golden Body?"
Bam!
The cultivator was sent flying by the Arhat Golden Body.
He somersaulted in the air and nearly fell when he landed. The sword in his hand buzzed from the impact. His arm was numb.
Kong Xuan placed a hand before himself and said indifferently, "There's no need to be angry, benefactor … The she-villain is from the Evil Sky Pavilion. Not long ago, you and ten Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm elites were defeated by the old villain. Luo Changfeng, the Sect Master of the Heavenly Sword Sect, died a horrible death. We'll only be safe if we hand this she-villain over to the Temple of Great Emptiness. "
In other words, if Ji Tiandao came looking for trouble, who would be able to stop him?
"Bald donkey, you speak so harshly. If the Noble Path can't stop him, can the Temple of Great Emptiness?"
Kong Xuan's expression was calm as he said, "Senior Brother Abbot has been cultivating in seclusion for 100 years. His cultivation base has improved tremendously … It's enough for him to deal with the old villain."
His words stirred up a commotion.
A commotion broke out on the holy altar's plaza. Everyone looked shocked.
Everyone knew that the Temple of Great Emptiness's Kong Yuan was a Six-leaf Golden Body divine monk 100 years ago.
They did not expect him to be cultivating in seclusion.
A person from the Clarity Sect rose to his feet and cupped his fists at Kong Xuan. "Master Kong Yuan, if you're able to fight the Evil Sky Pavilion's old villain, the Clarity Sect agrees to hand the she-villain over to the Temple of Great Emptiness."
The members of the Righteous Sect were stunned.
The Clarity Sect and the Righteous Sect were originally of the same lineage. But now, the one who kept his word was not here … If he agreed, how could he explain it to his dead disciple? They couldn't make the decision.
Kong Xuan nodded. "Thank you, benefactors from the Clarity Sect. The Temple of Great Emptiness won't let you down and enlighten the villain."
At this time, a gloomy voice came from behind Kong Xuan.
"If you want to take Zhao Yue away … you'll have to ask me."
Kong Xuan turned around and faced the people of Fiend Temple.
"I've already said that I'm not here to negotiate with you, but to inform you."
His tone was very calm.
But it sounded extremely harsh.
The Fiend Temple's Third Seat raised his eyes slightly and said coldly, "What a sanctimonious bald donkey. The Temple of Great Emptiness has deliberately set up the Great Meditation Mantra around the holy altar. Do you think such tricks are worthy of upholding justice?"
He paused for a moment before he continued, "The Temple of Great Emptiness has always prided itself on the equality of all living beings. It doesn't differentiate between the righteous and the evil, and it doesn't meddle in the affairs of the world either. “
Kong Xuan raised his right hand in front of him. "Benefactor Duan … could it be that you wish to stop this old monk?"
"Stinking monk! You refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit! "
He waved his hand.
Several black-robed cultivators leaped into the square.
When Kong Xuan saw the other party's menacing aura, he stood with one hand before himself. He was neither hurried nor slow.
"Arhat Golden Body."
The 20-foot Golden Body radiated Expansive Energy!
His kasaya shook!
When Jiang Aijian saw this, he was shocked.
"The Arhat Golden Body is comparable to a Two-leaf Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm avatar. This bald donkey is not to be underestimated … Old Mister, retreat! The Fiend Temple is clearly prepared. When this bald donkey uses his Zen Seal, your Sense Condensing realm will surely be at a disadvantage! "As he spoke, he pulled Lu Zhou's arm and retreated.
