"Little Qin, what do you mean by that?"
Clearly, Fang Zhen didn't understand what Qin Yi meant by those words.
He had thought that Qin Yi wanted to borrow the power of the Yin-Yang Academy, but after thinking about it, he realized that it was impossible.
If it was a hundred years ago, with the glory of the Yin-Yang Academy, a casual word from it could indeed affect the situation of the Yunhai Empire. But now, he had to admit that the academy had completely lost its influence and could not affect the situation at all.
Even though Fang Zhen was now an elder of the Yin-Yang Academy, this was an objective fact that he had to admit.
Since he knew, Qin Yi naturally knew as well.
Hearing Fang Zhen's question, Qin Yi did not beat around the bush. He smiled calmly and said, "The imperial family."
… …
At this moment, in the central hall of the Luofu Sect.
The news of the Fang Clan being destroyed had already spread. Along with it were rumors that the culprits were from the Luofu Sect.
Because of this, Sect Leader Luo Wuji was extremely furious and summoned all the higher-ups.
Luo Wuji sat on the main seat, his expression terrifyingly dark. Below the hall, there was a lot of discussion.
It was obvious that the incident had happened too suddenly. Even the higher-ups of the sects were at a loss.
There were even people who believed the rumors and thought that Luo Wuji had sent people to do it.
After all, they had some understanding of their Sect Leader's personality. With his personality, it was completely impossible for him to do such a thing.
"All of you, shut up!"
Naturally, Luo Wuji could clearly hear the discussions below the stage. He slammed the table next to him. His cold voice echoed throughout the entire hall.
Seeing that Luo Wuji was angry, the hall immediately quieted down.
It could be seen that Luo Wuji's prestige as the sect leader was unquestionable in the sect.
After the hall had completely quietened down, his indifferent eyes swiftly swept one round around him. Soon after, he frowned and said, "Where is second elder? Why isn't he here? "
This could be considered the toughest order Luo Wuji had ever issued. All the higher-ups of the sect had to be present. However, at this time, the Second Elder, Feng Yongnian, was actually absent.
"Sect Master, I heard from the Second Elder's servant that the assassination he sent last time failed, so he has set off personally to the Yin-Yang Academy to kill Qin Yi and Fang Lei."
Among the elders, there were also people who were close to Feng Yongnian. He had some understanding of his whereabouts.
Unexpectedly, Luo Wuji's expression instantly darkened when he heard this. "Send someone to bring him back to me!"
Evidently, he also knew that if he continued to deal with Qin Yi's group at this moment, regardless of the outcome, the annihilation of his entire sect would be blamed on them.
The Fang Family was merely one of the Three Cauldrons Families. He naturally did not care about them. However, their annihilation left Luo Wuji with a huge problem.
Right now, the news of Fang Lei's betrayal had spread throughout the entire capital city. Not only would he lose face, but the Abyssal Sacred Valley, which had suffered a loss previously, would definitely take the opportunity to stir up trouble.
"Third Elder, you've always been my strategist. Now, I want to hear what you have to say. "
Suddenly, Luo Wuji shot a glance at Xin Chaohui and asked in a neither hurried nor slow manner.
Xin Chaohui smiled helplessly and took a step forward. "Sect Master, rumors are spreading everywhere in the city. I'm afraid it won't be easy to refute them."
At a time like this, he naturally wouldn't give Luo Wuji any more advice or suggestions.
He was also the one who sent people to deal with the Fang Family's matter. This was a great gift to Luo Wuji, as well as a great gift to the other two sects.
Although it took some effort, the final result was still very good.
Most importantly, when he made this move, he had already prepared an outcome in advance. There was originally no way out. Now that Luo Wuji had come to ask him for a solution, even if he had the heart to think about it, there would be no result.
At this time, someone suddenly announced from outside, "Sect Master, the Abyssal Sacred Valley's Valley Master is here."
Luo Wuji furrowed his brows. Evidently, the person he did not want to see the most at this time was Lu Fengyao.
When this happened, he had already guessed that the other party would not easily give up this opportunity. But he did not expect Lu Fengyao to come so quickly.
But at this time, he also knew that it was impossible to escape. He waved his hand and said, "Invite him in."
Soon, Lu Fengyao's figure appeared in front of everyone. Just like the last time Luo Wuji went to the Abyssal Sacred Valley, this time, Lu Fengyao also came alone.
Facing the upper echelons of the Luo Fu Sect, Lu Fengyao still had a smile on his face as he calmly walked into the main hall.
"Sect Master Luo, long time no see. How have you been?"
The corners of Lu Fengyao's mouth curled up slightly. He first exchanged pleasantries, then leisurely strolled to the seat that had already been prepared for him and sat down. "I believe Sect Master Luo has already heard the rumors in the city, right?"
Lu Fengyao went straight to the point. Obviously, he did not have good intentions.
Luo Wuji did not deny it. His eyes turned cold and he asked indifferently, "Lu Fengyao, what? Are you here to laugh at my Luo Fu Sect?"
Lu Fengyao smiled noncommittally, then said, "I have never been a person who likes to watch a show. However, this matter is closely related to my Abyssal Sacred Valley. No matter how unwilling I am, I have to make this trip. "
Luo Wuji frowned. "Let's not talk about whether this matter is true or not. Even if this matter is true, it is my Luo Fu Sect's matter. What right do you have to interfere?"
One had to say that under these circumstances, Luo Wuji could still be so domineering. He was worthy of his identity.
Unfortunately, his domineering attitude was not worth mentioning in Lu Fengyao's eyes. He shook his head and smiled. "Sect Master Luo and your Luo Fu Sect's matters, I have no interest at all. However, the traitor Fang Lei, who has been spreading like wildfire in the city, is closely related to my Abyssal Sacred Valley. "
Then, Lu Fengyao glanced at Luo Wuji, whose face was gradually darkening. He smiled again and said, "During the Demon Spirit Island trial, your sect's Fang Lei colluded with Qin Yi to kill several of my sect's disciples. My Abyssal Sacred Valley has investigated this matter and tried to persuade him with kind words. However, your sect's second elder refuted. In order to prove his innocence, my Sacred Valley's elder, Shu Yuxuan, didn't hesitate to make a bet with the supreme blood beast. I believe Sect Master Luo still remembers this matter, right? "
Luo Wuji's eyes turned cold. What was to come had finally come.
Chapter 1088: Looting a Burning House
"Hmph!"
Luo Wuji coldly snorted and said in disdain, "Lu Fengyao, aren't you a bit too impatient to come here in such a hurry? In this way, I can't help but suspect if you were the one who planned all of this from the beginning until the end. "
It had to be said that although Luo Wuji seemed to have a bad temper, his brain was not inferior to others at crucial times.
If someone really treated him as a reckless person, then they would have to pay a terrible price.
Unfortunately, since Lu Fengyao dared to come here today, he had naturally made sufficient preparations.
Luo Wuji's words were, of course, within his expectations. He shook his head and said with a smile, "Sect Master Luo, you and I should both know. The real point is not the destruction of the Three Cauldron Clans. My purpose of coming here this time is not to discuss with Brother Luo who the murderer is. "
Obviously, the matter with the Fang Clan was just a fuse. Since the fuse had already been ignited, what was left was just some ashes. Even if they found the person who set the fire, it would be meaningless.
The most important thing was how powerful the fuse and the explosives that were ignited were.
Lu Feng glanced at Luo Wuji from afar, and the corners of his mouth curled up dangerously. "Brother Luo, I can't help but wonder if everything that Fang Lei did before was instructed by you."
Unknowingly, Lu Fengyao had already put a big hat on Luo Wuji.
There was no doubt that if the rumors in the city were really instructed by Luo Wuji, then the nature of the whole thing would be completely different.
After all, the nature of this matter was extremely bad, and it was very likely that it would lead to the joint attack of the Mirage Flower Palace and the Abyss Sacred Valley.
At that time, even if the Luofu Sect was the strongest among the three sects, there was absolutely no chance of winning.
At this time, Luo Wuji's face also became a little ugly. He snorted coldly and said, "Lu Fengyao, don't put shit on me. This matter has not been concluded yet, but you first said that my sect's disciple plotted against your Abyss Sacred Valley's disciple. You also said that I instructed Fang Lei to deceive your Abyss Sacred Valley. Everything needs evidence. Whether Fang Lei is a traitor or not, I haven't found out yet. What's more, the one who agreed to the bet with the supreme blood beast was your trusted subordinate! "
Lu Fengyao shook his head unhurriedly and said, "Shu Yuxuan did not do his job well, and it was the Sacred Valley's interest that was lost. Moreover, I also gave him the punishment he deserved. On the other hand, Sect Leader Luo, if you want to prove your innocence, why do you need to say so much? You just need to bring Fang Lei here and confront him face to face! "
Fang Lei was no longer in the sect, and Luo Wuji had already sent people to assassinate him. Obviously, at this moment, it was impossible to say that Fang Lei was not a traitor.
There was no doubt that Lu Fengyao was also very confident about this. Otherwise, he would not have appeared here now.
At this moment, apart from Lu Fengyao, the one who was the most pleased with himself was probably Xin Chaohui.
"I have to say, this Lu Fengyao's methods are much more powerful than I thought."
Xin Chaohui was expressionless, but he was extremely proud in his heart. "In this case, I want to see how Luo Wuji will deal with it."
Obviously, the more difficult it was to deal with Lu Fengyao, the higher the chance of success of this war. Once the flames of war between the two sects were ignited, the Imperial Capital would completely change.
Luo Wuji said coldly, "Lu Fengyao, if I wanted the Blood Beast of the Abyss Sacred Valley, why would I need a subordinate to act? I could just go to the Abyss Sacred Valley and take it. Is there anyone in the Abyss Sacred Valley who can stop me? Even if Fang Lei is a traitor, it's still the Luofu Sect's business. If you want to make a fuss about this, I'm afraid you've made a mistake. "
Without a doubt, Luo Wuji was now ready to push all the responsibility onto Fang Lei.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk."
Lu Fengyao shook his head and said, "Brother Luo, I have to admit that you are indeed very powerful. However, you should also know that the Abyss Sacred Valley is not to be trifled with. I won't pursue the matter of what you said just now. However, if Brother Luo and your sect cannot give me an explanation today, then I can only apologize. "
Luo Wuji raised his eyebrows and said, "What? Could it be that the Abyss Sacred Valley wants to start a war with the Luofu Sect? "
Lu Fengyao said calmly, "Brother Luo's words are wrong. I'm alone, how could I dare to challenge Brother Luo?"
Without a doubt, the implication of his words was that he wanted to drag the Mirage Flower Palace into a crusade against the Luofu Sect.
"Lu Fengyao, I'm afraid your wishful thinking is going to fail this time."
Luo Wuji sneered and said, "I've already said that the Mirage Flower Palace and my sect have been in an alliance for a long time. The weakness of the Blood Beast of the Abyss Sacred Valley has also been seen through by our two sects. If we really fight, I'm afraid that the Mirage Flower Palace will not help the Abyss Sacred Valley. "
"Hahaha!"
Hearing this, Lu Fengyao laughed out loud. Then, he looked down at Luo Wuji and said, "Brother Luo, Brother Luo. Now that things have come to this, I have to admire your optimism. Now that the weakness of the Abyss Sacred Valley has been known by your two sects, doesn't that mean that the threat of the Mirage Flower Palace is greatly reduced? Dare I ask Brother Luo, between the Abyss Sacred Valley and your sect, if only one sect survives? Then who do you think the Mirage Flower Palace wants to see disappear? "
Hearing this, Luo Wuji's face quickly darkened. Without a doubt, when faced with this kind of situation, they would naturally first get rid of the more threatening enemy.
And since the weakness of the Abyss Sacred Valley had been seen through, after the Luofu Sect was eliminated, the Mirage Flower Palace would naturally grasp the initiative.
At that time, the Mirage Flower Palace would naturally become the true overlord of the Yunhai Empire.
"Brother Luo, I have to say, I have great respect for you."
At this moment, Lu Fengyao had completely grasped the initiative. However, he had a good grasp of when to advance and when to retreat. At this time, he didn't continue to press forward. Instead, he restrained his expression and said, "To be honest, I still want to do my best to maintain the balance between our three sects. As for starting a war, I feel that it can only be the last and most helpless choice. "
Luo Wuji obviously wouldn't believe Lu Fengyao's bullshit. He coldly snorted and went straight to the point. "Speak, what do you want?"
It could be seen that this time, Luo Wuji also knew that he had to eat this loss.
The corner of Lu Fengyao's mouth curled up, and a cold smile appeared on his face. He said, "Since Brother Luo is so straightforward, I won't beat around the bush. To be honest, I am very interested in your sect's Sun Shooting Divine Bow. I wonder if Brother Luo would be willing to part with it and let me look at it for a few days? "
Chapter 1089: Deciding to Start a War
"What? You actually want my Luofu Sect's sect's treasure? Lu Fengyao, why don't you just rob it? "
"That's right! The Sun Shooting Divine Bow is not only our sect's most powerful treasure, it is also where our sect's fortune lies! It seems like you have no sincerity in negotiating with us! "
"If you want to fight, then let's fight! The Sun Shooting Divine Bow will never be given to you. If you really want to fight to the death, our Luofu Sect isn't afraid! "
Lu Fengyao's words didn't even wait for Luo Wuji to speak before the elders of the Luofu Sect all jumped out and started cursing at Lu Fengyao!
The Sun Shooting Divine Bow was the Luofu Sect's sect's treasure. It had been passed down through the generations in the Luofu Sect for countless years. Not only was it a weapon, but it was also the foundation of the Luofu Sect.
Without a doubt, Lu Fengyao's request was blatant extortion in the eyes of the Luofu Sect. There was no sign of negotiation at all.
Luo Wuji's gaze turned cold. He looked at Lu Fengyao and said, "Lu Fengyao, as you can see, the Sun Shooting Divine Bow will never be given to you!"
"Brother Luo, I don't see any sincerity in your words."
Lu Fengyao raised his head and looked at Luo Wuji. He wasn't angry at all. Instead, the smile on his face became wider.
It was obvious that he wasn't in a rush at all. Right now, he had a trump card in his hand, and the initiative was completely in his hands.
"Lu Fengyao, the other things are fine, but the Sun Shooting Divine Bow is definitely out of the question!"
Although Luo Wuji could admit defeat, there was still a limit to how much he could lose. Without a doubt, if he really handed over the Sun Shooting Divine Bow now, he would become the Luofu Sect's greatest sinner!
"However, from what I see, the only thing in your sect that can truly interest me is the Sun Shooting Divine Bow."
If Feng Yongnian was here, he would have blushed after hearing this. When they made the bet at the Yin-Yang Academy, Feng Yongnian had said the same thing to Shu Yuxuan.
It was that bet that caused the Abyss Sacred Valley to lose a Blood Beast.
However, no one thought that the cycle of karma would come so quickly. The change in their roles was also very thorough.
It was obvious that Lu Fengyao had come this time to wash away the humiliation of losing a Blood Beast.
"If Brother Luo doesn't agree, it's not impossible." Lu Fengyao faintly smiled and said: "If Brother Luo can agree, the Luo Fu Sect will become a vassal of my Abyssal Sacred Valley in the future and work for my Abyssal Sacred Valley, then the Sun Shooting Divine Bow will naturally stay with your sect.
"Lu Fengyao!"
Accompanied by a loud roar, a monstrous might directly pressed down like a mountain piercing through the clouds!
Luo Wuji's eyes were scarlet red and overflowing with murderous intent. They were like countless unsheathed swords that shot towards Lu Fengyao. "Enough nonsense, let's fight!"
Clearly, Lu Fengyao's words were completely insulting the Luofu Sect. After all, Luo Wuji was the sect leader of the Luofu Sect. How could he endure this kind of humiliation?
Luo Wuji could also see that Lu Fengyao indeed had some thoughts about the Sun Shooting Divine Bow. However, after being rejected, Lu Fengyao immediately gave up on this idea.
To be honest, Lu Fengyao was looking forward to the battle.
First of all, among the three sects, the Luofu Sect was the strongest. It would not be easy to deal with them.
Secondly, the Abyss Sacred Valley still had a hidden trump card, and that was Hong Yi, who had been reincarnated.
Without a doubt, once Hong Yi recovered to her peak strength, no matter if it was the Luofu Sect or the Mirage Flower Palace, they would not be able to withstand a single blow.
Unfortunately, the current Hong Yi was still in the recovery stage. In addition, he had lost two supreme blood beasts, which had a certain impact on his recovery.
But now, if he could seize the opportunity to get rid of the Luofu Sect. Then the Mirage Flower Palace would definitely not be able to bring any threat to the Abyss Sacred Valley.
This was also the reason why Lu Fengyao was so eager to fight the Luofu Sect.
However, although his goal had been achieved, Lu Fengyao still maintained his calm. After all, he was currently in the Luofu Sect, and his own strength was not comparable to Luo Wuji's.
"Brother Luo, to be honest, I am very disappointed to hear your decision."
Lu Fengyao lowered his gaze, sighed, and said in a low voice, "If that's the case, then we can only meet on the battlefield!"
"Hmph!"
Luo Wuji heavily snorted and said, "Since we've already decided to fight, Lu Fengyao, do you think you can still leave now?"
As he spoke, the killing intent in his eyes suddenly increased. It could be seen that he was prepared to make the other party stay here forever.
At this time, if he could make Lu Fengyao, the supreme leader of the Abyss Sacred Valley, stay, it would undoubtedly be a huge blow to the Abyss Sacred Valley.
"Brother Luo, did you forget how you left my Abyss Sacred Valley last time?"
Lu Fengyao was not in a hurry, and said unhurriedly, "Brother Luo, you know to hold back, do you think I don't?"
"Lu Fengyao, don't forget that I, Luo Wuji, am not the same as you! If I want to do something, I will definitely do it! "
After saying this, Luo Wuji actually stood up, and a majestic power directly swept through the entire hall. Obviously, this was the unique domain power of Luo Wuji, a high-level Dao Change Realm expert.
Lu Fengyao coldly snorted and also opened up his domain, facing Luo Wuji with equal harshness.
Seeing this scene, Xin Chaohui was also extremely excited. "Our goal has been achieved. If we can make Lu Fengyao die here, then it will be of great help to the organization's next operation!"
Obviously, he wanted to see Lu Fengyao die here. In this way, the Luo Fu Sect and the Abyss Sacred Valley would have no room to turn around, and all that was left was to fight to the death!
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and even the air seemed to be shocked by the strong aura of both sides, momentarily forgetting to flow.
At this time, a fat middle-aged man suddenly rushed in from outside the door. This person's skin was fair, and his face was even more snow-white. Obviously, he had put on some kind of foundation.
"Oh, both of you are here?"
As soon as the middle-aged man entered, a high-pitched voice that was like a woman's, yet not a woman's, was heard.
"Hmph!"
Luo Wuji glanced at the other party, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. Soon, he retracted his gaze and continued to confront Lu Fengyao.
Luo Wuji's disregard did not affect the middle-aged man at all. He chuckled, then said, "His Majesty, Emperor Yun, has a decree to summon both of you to the palace."
Chapter 1090: Emperor Yun
"Emperor Yun hasn't summoned us for many years, why did he suddenly think of us today?"
Lu Fengyao was obviously unwilling to fight with Luo Wuji now. Seeing that the middle-aged man had spoken, he immediately retracted his power and turned to look at the fat middle-aged man.
"I don't know about that. However, since His Majesty Emperor Yun summoned you, he naturally has something important to discuss with you. "
The fat middle-aged man smiled, then raised his head to look at Luo Wuji, "What, Lord Luo, are you going to defy the decree?"
"Hmph!"
Luo Wuji snorted coldly, obviously disdainful of the word 'defy'. Unfortunately, he also knew that the royal family still had a symbolic role in the Cloud Sea Empire. No matter how turbulent the world was, the royal family could never be shaken.
No matter how weak they were now, if they were offended, they could still summon the entire capital city, or even the entire empire, to oppose them.
Even if he wanted to go to war with the Holy Valley, he could not do anything to the royal family.
Therefore, no matter how much disdain he felt, Luo Wuji still retracted his aura.
"Very well."
The middle-aged man nodded, still wearing a harmless smile on his face, and said, "Then I'll have to trouble the two of you to come with me."
After saying that, he directly turned around and walked away, dragging his fat body, but his speed was not slow at all. He was the first to leave the main hall.
Luo Wuji and Lu Fengyao looked at each other, and then they silently followed behind.
"Dog Emperor!"
Seeing that the battle he was looking forward to did not break out, Xin Chaohui could not help but curse in his heart.
He did not know why, but he felt that Emperor Yun's summon this time was not simple. He even had a premonition that once Luo Wuji returned, things would be out of his control.
"It seems that I have underestimated the royal family."
Xin Chaohui was obviously an extremely conceited person. In the empire, the royal family was just a decoration. For many years, no matter how turbulent the empire was, they had always been indifferent to it.
However, even if they did not have a sense of existence, their influence would always be there. There was no doubt that Xin Chaohui had overlooked this point, which led to such an unforeseen event this time.
But now, he did not have the chance to change anything. Right now, he could only wait for the result in the sect.
…
The imperial city was located in the central area of the imperial capital. It had to be said that although the royal family did not have much influence in the empire, the construction of the imperial city was indeed magnificent.
Just the surface area alone was probably more than two Five Cauldron Sects.
Entering the city, one could also see the simple and unadorned buildings inside. From the magnificence of the buildings, one could also see that the royal family in the past would not be as cowardly as they were today.
Inside the imperial city, the security was also extremely tight. Almost every few steps, one could see a team of patrolling guards.
Without a doubt, if one encountered a truly powerful person, these guards would not be of much use. However, this tight security perfectly reflected the majesty of the royal family. It was more than enough to deal with ordinary low-level Dao Transformation Realm experts.
Ignoring everything in front of them, Luo Wuji and Lu Fengyao quickly arrived in front of a magnificent palace under the guidance of the fat middle-aged man.
When they arrived at the door, the fat middle-aged man bowed respectfully and said with an extremely pious look, "Your Majesty, the people have been brought here."
Soon, a response came from inside, "Very good, let them in."
"Yes."
The fat middle-aged man agreed, then turned to Lu Fengyao and Luo Wuji and said, "Sirs, His Majesty invites you in."
The two of them looked at the fat middle-aged man in disdain. It was obvious that they were very disdainful of the red tape in the imperial city. Without saying a word, the two of them directly pushed the door open and walked in.
In the palace, there were rows of neatly arranged bookshelves. There were all kinds of books on them, covering a wide range of fields.
It had to be said that as the royal family of the Cloud Sea Empire that had stood tall for many years, their foundation was indeed very deep.
In terms of the number of books they had, perhaps even the Five Cauldron Sects like the Abyss Sacred Valley and the Luo Fu Sect could not compare.
This was obviously the Cloud Emperor's study, and at the same time, it was also the place where he usually handled affairs. The study was very precious. There was a study table carved from fine white jade, and in front of it sat a man wearing a white robe embroidered with auspicious clouds.
The man was not old, at most in his twenties. He was extremely handsome, with sword-like eyebrows, starry eyes, and a high nose bridge. There was also a hint of dignity and wisdom between his eyebrows, showing that this person was extremely extraordinary.
This person was the nominal emperor of the Cloud Sea Empire — His Majesty, the Cloud Emperor.
At this moment, he was holding a brush in his hand and writing something on a piece of paper. He looked very serious.
Hearing the unceremonious opening of the door and the disrespectful footsteps, he was not the least bit displeased.
Instead, he put down the brush in his hand, looked up at the two of them, and said with a smile, "My two beloved subjects, you are finally here."
Lu Fengyao smiled insincerely and said, "Your Majesty, the Cloud Emperor."
On the other hand, Luo Wuji was even more straightforward. He did not even address the Cloud Emperor as he stood there with a face full of disdain. He looked at the 'young lad' in front of him and revealed a cold smile from time to time.
Seeing this, the Cloud Emperor was not annoyed. Instead, he continued to say, "It seems that I have not seen the two of you for a long time. I remember that the last time I saw the two of you was when I ascended to the throne. Time really flies. In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed. "
After the Cloud Emperor finished speaking, there was another silence in the palace. The atmosphere at the scene was slightly awkward.
The Cloud Emperor also knew that the two of them were not the least bit interested in such pleasantries. At that moment, he did not say anything more and went straight to the point. "I believe the two of you have heard about the rumors in the city, right?"
"As expected! Sure enough, this brat called me over for this matter. "
At this moment, the same thought flashed across the minds of Luo Wuji and Lu Fengyao.
Immediately, Lu Fengyao took a step forward and said in an indifferent tone, "Your Majesty, this matter is between our two sects. It has nothing to do with Your Majesty. I advise Your Majesty not to interfere. "
Luo Wuji looked at Lu Fengyao coldly, then retracted his gaze and looked at the Cloud Emperor. "That's right. The matter between our two sects will eventually have to be settled. Anyway, no matter how the two sects deal with it, your position as the Cloud Emperor will not be shaken. "
As he spoke, a trace of contempt and mockery flashed across Luo Wuji's eyes. Obviously, he did not care about the Cloud Emperor's position at all.
Chapter 1091 – Cloud Emperor's Brilliant Move
"Dear ministers, could it be that you're planning to resort to force?"
The Cloud Emperor frowned. For the first time, there was a change of expression on his handsome face.
Hearing this, Luo Wuji and Lu Fengyao did not comment. Their eyes met, and intense sparks flew from their eyes.
Although the Cloud Emperor was young, his mind was very clear. Looking at the behavior of the two, he naturally knew that his guess was correct.
"Both of you are important ministers of my empire. To be honest, I do not wish to see any mishap happen to either of your two sects."
The Cloud Emperor let out a long sigh and said in a low voice.
Although the three sects were the true rulers of the empire, they were still the ministers of the imperial family in name. In the imperial court, everyone had a very high official title.
Although they did not care about this so-called official title, it did not mean that it did not exist. Of course, by doing this, it was just an excuse for them to control the empire. At the same time, it was also to preserve the dignity of the imperial family.
"My two dear ministers, have you thought it through?"
The Cloud Emperor frowned, as if he was unwilling to believe it, and asked again for confirmation.
"Cloud Emperor, this is a grudge between our two sects. It must be resolved."
Lu Fengyao gave more face than Luo Wuji. After all, his summon just now gave him, who was in the Luo Fu Sect, an excuse to leave, and saved him a lot of trouble.
The Cloud Emperor said in a low voice, "The two sects have a great influence in the empire. If you start a war, the people will be in misery, and the consequences will be severe."
It could be seen that although the Cloud Emperor's current power was only a figurehead, he still cared about the country.
Unfortunately, this so-called concern for the country and the people was a joke in the eyes of Luo Wuji and Lu Fengyao.
Seeing the Cloud Emperor's serious and worried expression, Luo Wuji smiled insincerely and said, "No matter how the situation outside is, you are still the Cloud Emperor. As long as you stay in the imperial city, the flames of war will definitely not reach here. "
Obviously, in Luo Wuji's view, this young emperor was ultimately just worried that the war between the sects would have an impact on his position as the emperor.
What misery, what serious consequences, it was all bullsh * t.
The Cloud Emperor looked at the two people in front of him. After a moment of silence, he sighed and said, "To be honest, I have never been worried about losing this so-called emperor's position. I just feel a little regretful, that's all. "
Lu Fengyao frowned. He obviously heard the hidden meaning in this kid's words. Immediately, he asked, "What do you mean by that, Cloud Emperor?"
The Cloud Emperor took a deep look at Lu Fengyao, and an undetectable glint flashed across his eyes. He said, "My beloved Lu Fengyao is indeed smart. However, since your two sects have already decided to start a war, I will not mention this matter."
Luo Wuji immediately reacted, and the way he looked at the Cloud Emperor suddenly changed.
Obviously, whether it was him or Lu Fengyao, they had been successfully hooked by the young Cloud Emperor.
"Cloud Emperor, why don't you tell me what the matter is?"
Although Luo Wuji's words were polite, his tone was not at all polite. There was even a hint of threat in it.
It seemed that if the kid in front of him continued to keep him in suspense, he would not hesitate to attack him.
Without a doubt, although the Cloud Emperor was very talented and had already reached the second level of the Dao Change Realm at this age, in Luo Wuji's eyes, he was still a weak ant.
Although he could not kill the Cloud Emperor, he could still teach him a lesson that was neither light nor heavy.
It could be seen that the status of the royal family in the Cloud Sea Empire was not very high. This official, on the surface, not only did he not have any respect for the Cloud Sea Empire, he even dared to threaten the Cloud Emperor. One had to admit that this kind of emperor was indeed very useless.
Fortunately, the Cloud Emperor's temperament was already very mature after so many years. Of course, he did not take this matter to heart.
Moreover, the Cloud Emperor's interest had been aroused, so he had achieved his goal.
He thought for a moment and said, "Not long ago, someone told me that they found a secret realm in the Carefree Mountain Range outside the city. There seemed to be many treasures inside, and it should be a great opportunity. Now that the entrance to the secret realm is about to open, he rushed over to inform me. I was thinking if I should let the three sects join forces with my subordinates to enter the secret realm. "
"Secret realm?"
When they heard this news, Luo Wuji and Lu Fengyao's expressions changed rapidly. Without a doubt, the treasures in the secret realm had successfully aroused their interest.
"Since I've received this news, why should I continue to be long-winded with these two fellows? I'll go there myself and monopolize the entrance to the secret realm."
Luo Wuji had never had the habit of sharing with others. Moreover, there might be many treasures in there.
When he heard this news, his first reaction was to monopolize the secret realm.
However, it was obvious that he was not the only one who had this thought. Lu Fengyao was not a fool. If Luo Wuji could think of it, he could naturally think of it as well.
Unfortunately, this time, their wishful thinking was destined to fail.
Although the Cloud Emperor was young, his eyesight was extremely sharp. The thoughts of the two of them were clearly seen through by him.
However, he did not make it clear. Instead, he said, "My two beloved officials, the conditions to enter the secret realm are very strict. He can only allow martial artists who are at least rank five of the Dao Embryo Realm to enter. As for the others, no matter how high or low their cultivation base is, they are not allowed to enter. Furthermore, it has a limit on the number of people who can enter. There can be no less than twenty people, but there can be no more than fifty people. Most importantly, the people who enter the secret realm cannot be older than twenty-five years old. "
Without a doubt, this condition made Luo Wuji and Lu Fengyao, who were originally planning to monopolize the secret realm, immediately give up on this idea.
The five cauldron sects naturally had many rank five Dao Embryo Realm martial artists.
However, a rank five Dao Embryo Realm martial artist who was younger than twenty-five years old was considered a genius in their sects.
Obviously, there were many geniuses in the big sects. Unfortunately, the harsh conditions added together caused the number of people who met the requirements to dwindle.
Even if the Luo Fu Sect and the Abyss Sacred Valley added up, there were no more than twenty people who met the requirements.
Without a doubt, this plan of monopolizing the secret realm was destined to fail.
