Zhang Ximing spat out more blood. It seemed like he did not have long to live.
However, there was a smile on his face. It was a smile of victory. The rain splashed on his face, washing away the blood. However, the splashes of muddy water blurred his vision.
The muddy water made his eyes uncomfortable. His bloodshot eyes looked even more terrifying now.
"The Zhang family is innocent … My father isn't a corrupt official. My father … isn't a corrupt official … All of you must die … All of you must die …" Zhang Ximing could no longer think. His words were muffled and incoherent.
His life was slipping away.
Yu Zhenghai's Jasper Saber had cut open his avatar and heavily injured him. Yu Zhenghai's Great Dark Heavenly Palm had struck his chest and shattered his internal organs. It would be difficult for him not to die.
Yu Zhenghai looked at Yu Shangrong and asked, "Did I go too far?"
"If I did, I'm afraid he'd be dead by now."
"…"
The onlookers were in a frenzy.
The cultivator who said he would walk backward forever smiled awkwardly. His body seemed to have stiffened.
If he still did not know the relationship between these two elites, he would be no different from a retard. Yu Shangrong's All Creation Swords and 80,000 energy swords were more than enough to convince the onlookers.
Yu Shangrong flew over and hovered above Zhang Ximing's head.
He said calmly, "I'm sorry, but your father's crime has been confirmed. The evidence is irrefutable. Your words, actions, and background should be able to distinguish the truth from the lies. Justice is in the hearts of men and women. Anyone with a sense of propriety, justice, and honor would never say that they're innocent. If I were you, I would've taken my own life a long time ago. How dare you provoke others? "
Spat!
Zhang Ximing spat out a mouthful of blood.
His eyes were filled with indignation and rage, but it was futile.
Yu Shangrong looked at Yu Zhenghai indifferently. He did not feel any sympathy for Yu Zhenghai. After years of life and death trials, whether it was in the Melilot Graveyard on Brackish Mountain or traversing the lofty mountains and lofty ridges in the south, he and Yu Zhenghai had suffered more than they did.
The pitiful had to have something hateful about them.
Zhang Ximing was such a person.
His life continued to slip away.
His aura grew weaker and weaker.
Yu Shangrong did not look at Zhang Ximing. Instead, he looked at the rain and mist in the distance. He said indifferently, "Where's Black Lotus?"
"You … You … You … If you have the guts, go find him alone …" When Zhang Ximing finished this sentence, the breath in his throat was stuck, and he couldn't breathe in. After a few rapid breaths, his head tilted to the side, and he stopped breathing.
"Ding! Killed a target. Reward: 5,500 merit points. Additional 1,500 merit points for Domain."
Yu Zhenghai looked at the lifeless Zhang Ximing and said, "He's dead?"
"He should be dead," Yu Shangrong said.
"Will he be resurrected like Ye Zhen?" Yu Zhenghai asked worriedly.
"Maybe that's possible?"
"A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit … Second Junior Brother, move aside … This time, I'm going to deal a heavy blow." Yu Zhenghai raised his right hand slowly. The Jasper Saber flew up and hovered above his palm. It spun with the energy saber.
Yu Shangrong was not interested in the corpses. He flew back to the spectators.
Then …
The area within 200 feet was covered in energy sabers.
Like a golden waterfall, the energy sabers struck and slashed wildly. The earth shook and the mountains shook. The commotion was much louder than the battle between the two of them.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
After some time …
The rubble gradually calmed down.
Yu Zhenghai looked at his handiwork in satisfaction. Then, he flew back.
The cultivators who were watching the show all retreated in the air, afraid that they would be attacked.
"There's no need to be afraid. The Evil Sky Pavilion always distinguishes between gratitude and grudges," Yu Shangrong said.
"…"
Yu Zhenghai flew up to the spectators. He looked at them and asked, "Where's the Zhang Family?"
"Guannei Road, Jing, Jing Province City …" one of them replied nervously and fearfully.
"Jing Province? Second Junior Brother, go back and report to your superiors. I'll go to Jing Province alone and investigate the Zhang Family, "Yu Zhenghai said.
Yu Shangrong shook his head.
"If the black lotus is behind you, I don't think it's appropriate for you to go alone."
"Don't worry. Times have changed. I know what I'm doing."
As the two of them conversed, they made plans to go to Jing Province City.
"No. If we encounter Qian Jie, it'll be dangerous. If that happens, I won't be able to save you, "Yu Shangrong said.
"I'll be careful and focus on investigating."
"Eldest Senior Brother, let me go. You're not as fast as me."
The others only dared to watch. They did not dare to say a word.
'Is this how the bosses of the Evil Sky Pavilion do things?'
They were baffled. They could not help but gulp.
At this moment, a deep voice rang from the misty rain in the distance.
"Go back."
Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong were shocked. They turned around.
The familiar voice, tone, and aura traveled through the thick misty rain. Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong bowed in unison. "Understood."
The others. "…"
Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong did not linger. They leaped out of the rubble and vanished in the blink of an eye.
Heavy rain poured down, washing away the ruins after the battle.
Zhang Ximing's corpse had been mercilessly sliced into pieces by the energy sabers.
The spectators looked at the misty rain as well.
"It can't be …"
"Let's go. This place is eerie. Who else could make them obey? "
The onlookers were about to turn around and leave.
"Wait."
Lu Zhou's figure flickered and appeared before the others.
The misty rain in the surroundings was immediately stirred up by a vast surge of energy.
They could see clearly.
They saw a black-haired old man hovering in front of them with his hands on his back.
The others looked at Lu Zhou in a daze. They could not help but gulp.
The person in the lead was already sweating profusely at this moment. "S-s-senior … Is there anything I can do for you?"
Lu Zhou waved his sleeve.
The Golden Taixu Mirror's radiance swept across the others. The golden light was as dazzling as the sun. They could not help but close their eyes.
When they opened their eyes again, the black-haired old man was nowhere to be seen.
It was as though he had never been there.
The speed was so fast that it left people speechless.
…
The Imperial city.
The Hall of Cultivation had been cleaned up.
After returning to the Hall of Cultivation, Lu Zhou activated the Purple Glazed Ceramic and entered his meditative state.
When he was observing Zhu Honggong, he had exhausted his Taixuan Power and needed to recover.
Some time later.
Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong returned.
As soon as they entered the Hall of Cultivation, they saw their master sitting in the hall. They were shocked.
Firstly, he was surprised that his master had returned so quickly.
Secondly, he was surprised by his master's appearance. Why did he look so much younger?
Not daring to think too much, the two of them stepped forward to greet him.
"Disciple greets Master."
They spoke in unison.
How could he be so fast?
On their way back, they flew at top speed, almost without stopping.
Looking at his master's posture, it seemed like he had been meditating for a long time.
"You're back?" Lu Zhou opened his eyes.
Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong. "…"
"Regarding Zhang Ximing, the two of you did well. It's slightly reckless of me to investigate the black lotus, "Lu Zhou said.
"You're right, master," Yu Zhenghai said sheepishly.
"Since the Black Lotus's plan to rear livestock has been destroyed, they'll send people here sooner or later. Instead of looking for them, it's better to wait here. There are many experts in the Black Tower's council. The Black Guards are experts from a thousand worlds. Can you handle them? "Lu Zhou asked.
Both of them lowered their heads.
Lu Zhou continued to speak.
"Yu Zhenghai, you're the eldest. Logically speaking, you should've improved the fastest now that you've broken the shackles. If you still don't cultivate, I'll catch up to you. "
Yu Zhenghai bowed and said, "I'm ashamed. I'll work harder and reach the Ten-leaf stage as soon as possible."
"Yu Shangrong, you're Old Second and the first to sever your lotus. You'll need a lotus and a Life Palace to activate your Birth Chart and form the Thousand Worlds … The sooner you reach the Ten-leaf stage, the sooner you'll be able to find a new path of cultivation, "Lu Zhou said.
Without a Golden Lotus, he would not be able to form his Birth Chart and Thousand Worlds. This had always been a rock in his heart.
When he heard his master's words, he was delighted. He said, "Thank you, master."
"I'll personally supervise your cultivation in the coming days."
"Understood."
"Ding! Disciplined Yu Zhenghai. Reward: 200 merit points."
"Ding! Disciplined Yu Shangrong. Reward: 200 merit points."
