Xu Wanqing tried his best to control his body to prevent himself from falling into the sea.
In his heart, however, there were already raging waves.
Before Zhu Honggong could say anything …
Lu Li asked, "I am asking you something. Answer me truthfully."
"Yes, yes, yes …" Xu Wanqing stammered.
Lu Li: "Who is the most powerful person in the Hong Cult?"
Xu Wanqing said, "It's … it's my master, Tao … Tao Jing … Nascent Divinity realm … Her cultivation base is at the peak of the Six-leaf stage …"
Lu Li said, "A mere Six-leaf cultivator is worthy of being the strongest?"
Xu Wanqing's expression contorted. "S-s-senior, isn't the highest … the highest at the Six-leaf stage?"
Lu Li: "Ignorant."
Xu Wanqing's face turned red, and he was speechless.
Zhu Honggong had displayed his cultivation base that was close to the Nine-leaf stage, and yet, he could still ask such a question.
However, he could not bring himself to laugh because he saw the shadow of the Golden Lotus in Xu Wanqing. The cultivators of the golden lotus world were the same.
Weakness was the original sin.
Lu Li asked, "Which force dominates this world?"
Xu Wanqing stammered, "Da … Da Qing."
Lu Li asked, "Daqing?"
Xu Wanqing said, "There are many Six-leaf cultivators in the Qing Dynasty. They unify the lands and recruit talents from the major sects and factions every year. It was said that the Qing Dynasty had more than ten Six-leaf cultivators! Ten! "
Zhu Honggong. "…"
It was an awkward comparison.
He recalled how the golden lotus domain had sighed about the many Eight-leaf elites in the Great Yan Dynasty back then.
Lu Li asked, "Are there any Seven-leaf cultivators until now?"
Xu Wanqing quickly shook his head. "No. It's just that … I don't understand, Senior … why? Twelve zhang? No lotus seat? The color is a little more intense? "
He was dumbfounded.
Hearing what he said.
He had almost forgotten about it.
Golden and yellow lotuses shared many similarities in terms of color. Since they had never seen a seven-leaf yellow lotus before, they could understand why they thought golden lotuses were yellow lotuses.
Lu Li said, "Take us to Master."
Xu Wanqing was shocked. "Seniors, aren't you going to the Qing Festival?"
Lu Li said, "We never said we were going to the Qing Kingdom. Let's start at Wind Island."
These words made him confused.
Zhu Honggong had no idea what Lu Li was up to.
Xu Wanqing did not dare to be presumptuous. He turned around and flew in the direction of Wind Whistling Island.
Zhu Honggong lowered his voice and projected his voice. "What are you doing, senior?"
Lu Li said, "The golden lotus shackle in the Yellow Lotus Realm is the Six-leaf stage … You're already at the Six-leaf stage, so you're no longer restricted. Gathering the resources of the entire Yellow Lotus realm should be able to help you form the Thousand Realms Whirling. "
"The entire Yellow Lotus Domain?" Zhu Honggong was shocked.
"Have confidence."
"I'm not asking you to kill someone, so don't feel pressured … there are many things that are darker than you think. The Yellow Lotus Realm is weak enough, which is why it has not attracted the attention of powerful beings and sea beasts. This is your opportunity. "
"…"
Opportunity …
Zhu Honggong suddenly felt that his brain cells were running out. He asked, "What should I do, then?"
"Become their religion," Lu Li replied.
…
Yellow Lotus world, Wind Cry Island.
As soon as Xu Wanqing arrived on the island, a cultivator came to greet him.
"Eldest Senior Brother has returned!"
"Eldest Senior Brother, are those two spies? Did you give them a good beating? Let them know that the Hong Sect isn't to be trifled with. "
Xu Wanqing hastily raised a finger. "Shh …"
The shushing was louder than anything else.
"Eldest Senior Brother, what's wrong?"
In just a blink of an eye, many cultivators appeared before Xu Wanqing. All of them looked at him in confusion.
Apart from the sect master, Xu Wanqing had never been as frightened as he was today.
At this moment, Xu Wanqing was in a daze.
The two elites had clearly decided to leave. Why did they suddenly change their minds and stay? He was speechless. Since they had such high cultivation bases, why did they pretend to be weak?
Was this how they bullied others?
Did they like to pretend to be weak?
Xu Wanqing immediately rebuked them, "No one's allowed to make a move without my order!"
At this moment, Zhu Honggong and Lu Li descended from the skies.
The disciples were about to speak when Xu Wanqing turned around and glared at them.
The others shut their mouths and dared not speak.
Xu Wanqing bowed and said, "This way, seniors."
Lu Li said, "Lead the way."
With Xu Wanqing leading the way, Zhu Honggonghe and Lu Li followed him all the way to the center of the island. They first passed through the dense jungle, then passed through a rugged section of the mountain road and saw the buildings on the island.
Disciples guarding the city stood outside the city gates.
"Eldest Senior Brother!"
"Open the city gates."
"Understood."
The two of them opened the city gates.
Zhu Honggong felt like this was a stronghold … However, it was much more powerful than the Tiger Ridge Stronghold.
The two of them entered the city together.
As soon as they entered the city …
Many disciples crowded around them.
Hundreds of people stopped what they were doing and stopped cultivating.
"Eldest Senior Brother is back!"
"Who are these two people?"
"There's also a wild boar."
Xu Wanqing said in a deep voice, "Don't spout nonsense. These two are honored guests from afar. Don't slight them."
Fortunately, it was their Eldest Senior Brother. If it were anyone else, they might have screwed up today.
The prestige of their Eldest Senior Brother stopped the Hong Sect disciples from speaking nonsense. They bowed to Zhu Honggong and Lu Li.
Although Lu Li's sea of Qi was destroyed, his judgment remained the same. In his eyes, these people were less than ants. Therefore, he appeared indifferent along the way and rarely paid attention to the others.
Xu Wanqing asked, "Where's the sect master?"
"The sect master is resting inside. He said that he's taking an afternoon nap and is not to be disturbed," a disciple said.
"Hurry up and call the sect master!"
"Huh?"
"Don't you understand what I said?" Xu Wanqing said in a deep voice.
"But … the sect master has instructed us to do so."
Xu Wanqing pushed him away with a palm.
At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed in brocade robes walked out from the city tower. He said in a displeased tone, "Xu Wanqing, what's with all this commotion?"
"Mas … Master! These two honored guests … "Xu Wanqing was at a loss for words.
"Honored guests?"
The person looking down from the city tower was none other than the Hong Sect's sect master, Tao Jing.
Tao Jing wore a puzzled expression as she asked, "Who allowed you to bring people into the island?"
…
Lu Li merely glanced at the man before he turned to look at Zhu Honggong and said, "Show your avatar."
"Alright."
Zhu Honggong took a step forward.
Buzz!
A 12-foot avatar without a golden lotus shot into the air.
The hundreds of disciples in the surroundings had their mouths agape. Their mouths were wide open.
Tao Jing was about to reprimand Xu Wanqing when the avatar rose and stood before him, looking down at him.
The Hong Sect was as silent as a graveyard.
Lu Li did not like flashy schemes, and he did not want to play dumb. He decided to show his avatar and conquer his opponent as quickly as possible.
As expected, that was the truth.
The Hong Sect disciples had never seen such a tall avatar before. Based on their understanding and years of cultivation, the Six-leaf stage was the highest they could reach. The highest they could reach was only 70 feet. The sudden appearance of a 12-foot avatar had undoubtedly shattered their understanding of the world.
All schemes and plots were nothing in the face of absolute power.
Lu Li was the first to break the silence.
"I have three points to make clear. First, Zhu Honggong and I bear no ill will, and we don't intend to kill. Second, from this moment onward, Zhu Honggong will take over the position of Hong Sect's sect master. Those who have any objections, please reconsider. Third, Zhu Honggong will make Hong Sect the greatest sect under the heavens. We'll leave within five years."
Lu Li's tone darkened.
"Our time is precious. I'll give you ten breaths to think."
He had never felt the wind on Wind Cry Island so cold. It was like a knife cutting his face, but he did not feel any pain.
Numbness.
Smart people would always be able to analyze the pros and cons in the shortest time possible and weigh the pros and cons.
As the sect master, Tao Jing was not a fool.
He quickly made a few judgments.
First, these two experts were beyond his understanding. They would not kill anyone because it would be too easy for them to kill someone with their strength.
Second, there was no need for them to lie. With such absolute strength, was there a need to lie?
Third, there were obvious benefits to obeying. Putting aside why there was such an expert and how he did it, he had the ability to make Hong Sect the greatest sect in the world!
Ten breaths later.
Tao Jing suppressed all his shock and horror and leaped down from above.
He knelt on one knee and placed his right hand on the ground. He said, "I'm willing to give up my position as sect master … Greetings, sect master."
The disciples in all directions knelt on the ground.
"Greetings, sect master."
Even so.
In such a short period of time, it was impossible to get everyone to obey him. There were no absolutes in this world.
"It's fake! It must be fake! Don't be fooled by him! "
The two of them glared as they charged forward.
Tao Jing exclaimed in shock and shouted, "Stand down!"
"No!" Xu Wanqing cried out hoarsely.
Alas, it was too late.
Lu Li shook his head.
No matter how stupid Zhu Honggong was, he would not stand there and allow himself to be trampled on. He unleashed his energy.
Bam!
The two of them reeled back and spat out blood.
He did not kill them.
It was better to destroy their hearts.
The two of them were top-notch elites of Hong Sect. One was a Three-leaf, and the other was a Four-leaf.
In Zhu Honggong's opinion, these elites were so weak that they were not even worth mentioning.
…
Inside Wenxing Hall in the red lotus domain.
"Ding! Worshipped by 210 individuals. Reward: 210 merit points. Worshipped by 350 individuals. Reward: 0 merit points."
When he heard the notification …
Lu Zhou opened his eyes.
Author's Note: 1. Those who mentioned the nesting doll probably didn't understand it. It's the same map from the beginning to the end. Now that there are multiple maps, it'll be a test of one's control as they progress. Old Eighth is here to contribute to master, but master won't be coming. Hence, there's no plot with the nesting doll. 2. As for the Seven-colored Lotus, he was wrong. However, it did have multiple colors.
