The sun rose in the east.
The light suppressed the morning mist and pierced through the clouds like a fairyland.
After a night of cultivation, Lu Zhou felt that his Primal Qi had increased significantly.
After the Purple Glazed Glaze reached the Desolate Grade, its cultivation had increased threefold.
It was no wonder Ye Zhen's cultivation base was comparable to a Ten-leaf cultivator despite his young age. If he did not have to replenish his life, he would have become a Ten-leaf cultivator a long time ago.
"Senior Lu, Sect Master Nie invites you to the hall for a chat." A voice came from outside the door.
"Got it."
Lu Zhou stood up slowly.
After performing a series of simple actions, he took a look at the system interface.
Where did Ji Liang go?
Which disciple was the one who obtained the reward for killing the Nine-leaf cultivator yesterday?
Lu Zhou did not dwell on this matter. He made his way to the main hall.
When Nie Qingyun, Sikong Beichen, and the others saw Lu Zhou, they rose to their feet and greeted him.
"Brother Lu."
"Senior Lu."
Lu Zhou waved his arm and said, "Forget it."
Stepping into the hall, Zhang Xuan swept his gaze across the hall.
Yu Zhenghai, Little Yuan 'er, and Conch stood at the side.
He frowned and asked, "Where is your Second Senior Brother?"
Little Yuan 'er shook her head and said, "Second Senior Brother is elusive. Who knows?"
Yu Zhenghai said, "Second Junior Brother has always been a loner. You don't have to worry about him, master. Even if the entire Yunshan collapsed, it wouldn't be able to hit him. "
Lu Zhou nodded slightly.
Nie Qingyun felt a little embarrassed.
Sikong Beichen laughed heartily and said, "Brother Lu's brilliant disciple is indeed a dragon among men. His sword path is already at its peak. In three to five years, he'll surely have a fortuitous encounter and comprehend the son of heaven's sword. In less than ten years, he'll surely reach the Ten-leaf stage. "
Nie Qingyun was surprised to hear this and said, "For you to praise him like this, he must be extraordinary."
Sikong Beichen looked as if he couldn't be bothered with him.
"This is Brother Lu's first disciple. In terms of saber techniques, he isn't inferior to you, Nie Qingyun."
"Oh?"
Nie Qingyun looked at Yu Zhenghai. When he saw the desolate-grade Jasper Saber, a look of envy appeared on his face.
His own saber was only at the Heaven Stage.
Yu Zhenghai said, "Sect Master Nie, shall we spar another day?"
"I've met my match, and I can't ask for more," Nie Qingyun said.
Sikong Beichen said speechlessly, "A Ten-leaf cultivator of the Yun Sect is reduced to sparring with a Nine-leaf cultivator …"
Nie Qingyun: "…"
Just as he was about to retort —
"Alright."
Lu Zhou sat down and said, "Let's talk business."
Nie Qingyun nodded and said, "The Sky Martial Court is aware that Cloud Mountain is holding their people captive. They'll send an envoy today to ask for the hostages."
"Demand?" Lu Zhou asked, puzzled.
"The flying letter didn't mention it clearly. The people from the Sky Martial Court should be here soon."
Speak of the devil.
A disciple of the Cloud Sect ran in from the outside.
He bowed and said, "Sect Leader, the people from the Sky Martial Court are here."
Everyone nodded.
All of this was within their expectations, so there was nothing strange about it.
"Let them in."
"Yes."
A flying chariot flew slowly above Cloud Mountain. It was the Sky Martial Court's flying chariot.
The Sky Martial Court obtained Cloud Mountain's approval. Under the guidance of the cultivators, they passed through the barriers and landed next to the cauldron in front of the main peak's hall.
About a dozen cultivators each carried a box and walked into the hall.
Upon entering the main hall.
Nie Qingyun and Sikong Beichen immediately recognized it.
"Mo Buyan?"
The person in the lead was one of the Sky Martial Court's elders, Mo Buyan. He was also Yu Chenshu's most capable subordinate.
Mo Buyan waved his hand. The dozen or so boxes were placed back into the box.
"Sect Leader Nie, we meet again … Temple Master Sikong, you're here as well …" Mo Buyan greeted everyone.
An awkward expression appeared on Nie Qingyun and Sikong Beichen's faces.
"Elder Mo, aren't you going to greet Senior Lu?" Nie Qingyun said with a frown.
Mo Buyan looked around and quickly noticed Lu Zhou who had an extraordinary aura. He hastily bowed and said, "I'm sure you're the one who defeated Ye Zhen, Senior Lu."
Lu Zhou looked at him indifferently and said, "Speak.
What's the matter? "
"…"
An awkward expression appeared on Mo Buyan's face.
'We're all busy. Who has the time to waste with you?'
Mo Buyan said, "I only have one request this time. Please release the Sky Martial Court's disciples, Sect Leader Nie. These boxes are a token of the Sky Martial Court's appreciation. "
Mo Buyan waved his hand again.
The cultivators behind him opened the boxes.
Three boxes of supreme-grade talisman papers, one box of gold, one box of medicinal pills, one box of martial arts manuals, and four boxes of heavenly and earthly treasures.
These items were considered extremely extravagant even in a large sect.
Nie Qingyun shook his head and said, "Mo Buyan, your people colluded with the Flying Star House to destroy Cloud Mountain. Do you think this debt will be settled just like that? "
Ten boxes to resolve the conflict? That was just wishful thinking.
Mo Buyan said,
"Apart from these things, the dean will personally report to His Majesty to exonerate Yunshan."
"Sin?"
"Let's not talk about the Flying Star House for now. Ever since Ye Zhen and Chen Tiandu died, Mount Wuzhi excavated itself. Thousands of disciples were dismissed overnight. However, the Sky Martial Court's Instructor Chen and the royal guards' deputy commander, Lu Zhan, found it hard to explain. The dean would personally take care of these matters. Everything that happened on Cloud Mountain could be written off. However … "Mo Buyan paused for a moment before he said," I have to confirm if the Sky Martial Court disciples are alright. "
"Are you here to negotiate or to denounce me?" Sikong Beichen frowned and said in a deep voice, "Not only will Senior Lu not agree to it, but I won't agree to it as well … Do you think I, Sikong Beichen, am a pushover?"
"Hall Master Sikong, please don't misunderstand … Lord Dean doesn't want to escalate the conflict. Everything can be discussed," Mo Buyan said.
"There's no need for discussion."
Yu Zhenghai said sternly, "Go back and tell your court master that you don't have the right to speak to my master. By the way, if I'm in a bad mood one day, I might just kill them all. "
Mo Buyan was taken aback. He turned to look at Yu Zhenghai and said, "Why do you have to be so overbearing?"
Yu Zhenghai shook his head.
"You're the ones being overbearing."
"Please reconsider. The Sky Martial Court isn't the Flying Star House or Cloud Mountain, after all," Mo Buyan said.
At this moment, Lu Zhou spoke calmly. His voice was gentle and deep.
"What's your name?"
When Mo Buyan heard Lu Zhou's question, he felt a chill run down his spine. He answered, "A real man never changes his name in his actions. Mo Buyan."
Yu Zhenghai frowned slightly. 'Is he criticizing my master for using a fake name?'
Lu Zhou's expression remained unchanged as he said, "Mo Buyan, listen carefully."
"I'm all ears," Mo Buyan said.
"I'll kill 20 people today as a warning to others. Go back and tell your court master that if he's sincere, he can come and talk to me personally, "Lu Zhou said.
"…"
Mo Buyan's heart skipped a beat. He looked at the old man incredulously.
Lu Zhou had killed them without any hesitation. He did not respect the Sky Martial Court at all.
These 20 people were the price for the red lotus domain's invasion of the golden lotus domain a few days ago.
Mo Buyan hastily bowed. "Senior Lu, please calm down! We can talk about this! "
