As soon as Lu Zhou finished speaking, the Sky Martial Court cultivators hastily flew to the side as though they wanted to distance themselves from this matter.
The Flying Star House cultivators had an expression of despair on their faces.
Yao Qingquan laughed heartily and said, "I've long found these people from the Flying Star House an eyesore. Senior Lu, leave this to me and Zhao Jianghe!"
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "My two disciples are enough.
"This old man's two disciples are more than enough. There is no need for the two of you to interfere."
Yao Qingquan was greatly moved.
They could not help but admire the way the old senior did things. He even ordered his disciples to clean up the mess. There was no need for his friends to do it. How could they not be convinced by his attitude?
The two of them retreated.
Lu Zhou looked at the Sky Martial Court.
At this moment, Sikong Beichen said, "The cultivators from the palace are here."
On the eastern horizon, tens of thousands of densely packed cultivators were like dark clouds pressing down on the sky, attacking in a grandiose manner.
The members of the Sky Martial Court were overjoyed. They were saved!
The members of the Flying Star House were overjoyed.
Lu Zhou glanced at the incoming cultivators.
'This doesn't look good … Apart from the Peak Card, I've used up all my other methods of combat. I can only buy the cards now. However, if I do that, I'll be incurring losses. It wasn't easy for me to accumulate so many merit points.
Will the Peak Card really not work? '
Lu Zhou was still thinking of a plan when Sikong Beichen said, "I'll stop them."
Sikong Beichen looked to his left and right.
Yao Qingquan and Zhao Jianghe flew forward as well.
In no time at all, the people from the palace were 100 meters away.
The person in the lead was clearly different from the others. He wore red and white armor while the others wore black armor.
This person must be the general leading the group.
The people from the palace came to a halt.
The general said loudly, "I'm Lu Zhan, the deputy commander of the capital's imperial guard. I've been ordered to capture the Other Tribesmen … Where are the Other Tribesmen? Surrender yourselves."
Sikong Beichen remained silent. Instead, he summoned his avatar.
A two-hundred-foot-tall avatar rose from the ground.
A Ten-leaf red lotus bloomed and spun slowly.
It illuminated the skies.
Together with the slanting setting sun, they shone brilliantly.
Lu Zhan had just finished showing off when he saw the 200-foot avatar. He frowned.
"Ten-leaf?"
Yao Qingquan said, "Aren't you going to greet Hall Master Sikong?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhan's expression changed. He said, "The Ninth Temple's Senior Sikong?"
Sikong Beichen retracted his avatar.
It was obvious that Lu Zhan and the others were extremely fearful of this technique.
Sikong Beichen said, "There's no need for greetings. Go back and tell your commander, Xiahou Sheng, that there are no Other Tribesmen here."
"No?" Lu Zhan looked ahead and saw the people from the Sky Martial Court and the Flying Star House.
One of the Flying Star House's cultivators said, "Commander Lu, save me! Save me!"
Lu Zhan smiled. "I think I heard someone calling for help."
"You heard wrong," Yao Qingquan said.
"All lands under the heavens belong to the king. I think they're from the Flying Star House. The Flying Star House has served the royal family for many years. We can't just stand by and watch them die. Senior Sikong, please make way. Otherwise, it would be difficult for me to report to the palace. "
When the members of the Flying Star House heard this, they were ecstatic.
"Commander Lu, he's an outsider. All of them are. They killed Elder Ye Zhen and the house master! "
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhan frowned deeply.
"This is a grave matter. Forgive me for not being able to comply, Senior Sikong."
"Impudent!" Yao Qingquan shouted, "Even if Xiahou Sheng were here, he wouldn't dare to speak to my temple master in such a tone. Who do you think you are?!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhan's expression turned extremely sour.
Indeed, there was nothing much to be said about strength.
Initially, he thought that with Chen Tiandu and Ye Zhen acting as the middleman, the royal family would only need to support him.
However, he did not expect things to turn out this way.
"Senior Sikong, I have no intention of contradicting you … Today's matter has nothing to do with the Ninth Temple. I'm here to capture the Other Tribesmen. Since the Flying Star House and the Sky Martial Court are in trouble, the royal family has to uphold justice. Otherwise … how are we supposed to rule the world? "
Sikong Beichen was about to say something when …
Lu Zhou said indifferently, "In that case, there's no need to rule the world."
"Hm?"
Lu Zhan shifted his gaze to the white-haired old man. "Who are you?"
"Commander Lu, he's the one who killed the house master and Elder Ye. He's also the one who killed the Sky Martial Court's chief instructor!" The Flying Star House's elder was ready to risk everything.
In any case, he would die.
That was the only way he could survive.
However, the Sky Martial Court's cultivators remained silent.
Lu Zhan waved his hand and said, "A life for a life. I'm sure you understand this."
Lu Zhou said.
"Who gave you the courage to challenge me?"
"…"
Sikong Beichen sensed the killing intent in Lu Zhou's tone again.
He hastily said, "Scram! Even if Xiahou Sheng is here, he won't be able to save you if you talk back to Senior Lu! That's what I, Sikong Beichen, said. "
He emphasized Sikong Beichen's name.
Although he knew Lu Zhou's cultivation base was unfathomable, he did not want to start a war with the royal family.
Lu Zhan said, "I can scram! However, I'm taking the people from the Flying Star House and the Sky Martial Court with me! Otherwise, how am I supposed to answer to the palace? "
When he saw how determined Sikong Beichen was, he decided to settle for the next best thing.
When he looked past Nie Qingyun, he noticed the Cloud Mountain disciples were like frosted eggplants. They did not even dare to lift their heads.
"Sect Master Nie!" Lu Zhan called out.
Nie Qingyun cupped his fists.
"Today's matter has nothing to do with Cloud Mountain. Please don't make things difficult for me, Commander Lu … Whatever you want to do, don't drag me into it. Stand back. "
The Cloud Mountain disciples retreated.
They kept their distance.
When they were about halfway, Nie Qingyun suddenly said, "Commander Lu, I have a word of advice."
"What is it?"
"If I were you, I'd return obediently."
After saying this, Nie Qingyun turned around and left.
Lu Zhan shook his head helplessly and said, "What are you trying to do?"
"The Flying Star House has done something wrong. It's only natural for them to be punished …" Yao Qingquan said.
"They're from the royal family. Who dares to touch them?" Lu Zhan did not hesitate to accuse them of being from the royal family.
Sikong Beichen said, "Ye Zhen is from the Yinmu Nation. His avatar is the Nine Infants. He has invaded Great Tang many years ago. He's a true Other Tribesman. Senior Lu killed the Other Tribesmen, and you want to protect them? How dare you brag about ruling the world? "
"I don't care. I'm only following orders. With me here, nobody can touch the Flying Star House," Lu Zhan said.
Lu Zhan knew he could not defeat a Ten-leaf cultivator. Hence, he used the royal family to suppress them.
Just when he thought he had them in his grasp …
Lu Zhou waved his sleeve and said, "Kill them."
Yu Shangrong smiled faintly.
His Longevity Sword left its scabbard!
The golden energy swords shot toward the Flying Star House disciples and elders.
He said in a clear voice, "Second Junior Brother, let's have a match!"
"As you wish."
In just an instant, the area where the Flying Star House was hovering was enveloped by densely packed energy sabers and swords.
Bloodcurdling screams and the sound of bones breaking rang in the air. Severed limbs and blood splattered everywhere.
He charged into the Flying Star House in front of the royal family!
Lu Zhan's eyes widened in anger. He trembled. "You …"
"Ding! Killed a target. Reward: 500 merit points. Domain extra: 500 merit points." (Reward points from One-leaf to Five-leaf will be reduced.)
The notifications kept ringing in Lu Zhou's ears.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard as he looked at the pale-faced Lu Zhan calmly. Then, he said something that sent chills down one's spine, "Sikong Beichen, are you going to keep such an unappreciative person alive for the new year?"
"New year?"
Sikong Beichen was slightly taken aback. However, the meaning behind his words was clear. He immediately pointed at Lu Zhan and said, "Forget it. Leave your life behind."
