When he was chasing after Yu Huan with Ma Shangsi, Lu Ye had considered the possibility of another Yue Yao intervening to save Yu Huan's life.
This would not break the rules of the Wanxiang Sea, because the moment Yu Huan escaped from Baiyue Island, he was no longer in the battlefield of the Battle of the Spiritual Island. Lu Ye and Ma Shangsi's pursuit of him could be said to be the aftermath of the Battle of the Spiritual Island, or it could be said to be a personal grudge. Hence, if anyone wanted to save his life, they could do so.
Yu Huan had been active on the Wanxiang Sea for many years, how could he not have any connections? If he was really willing to pay a price to get someone to save him, it was not impossible.
However, what Lu Ye did not expect was that the person who came to save him was not a Yue Yao, but a constellation!
As the voice rang out, a Star Boat hastily flew over. A young man was standing on the Star Boat. He looked young, and his skin was soft and tender.
It was obvious that he was in a hurry. When he saw that Yu Huan was still alive, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "Fellow Daoist, please hold on. Please show mercy."
Lu Ye's Pan Shan Saber was stabbed into Yu Huan's chest. The Dharmic power on the saber was about to be unleashed. Beside him, Ma Shangsi's two balls of blood-red light surged. Her Divine Sense was also firmly locked onto Yu Huan.
The master and servant's powerful deterrence made Yu Huan lose the courage to even move his eyes. He was afraid that he would meet with a mishap in the next moment!
"Who are you?" Lu Ye had some guesses in his heart, but he still asked.
The young man stood on the planetary boat and smiled. He was not reserved like a constellation constellation in front of Yue Yao. He bowed graciously and said, "My surname is Yuan!"
Then, he looked at Lu Ye meaningfully.
Lu Ye thought to himself, As expected. His surname is Yuan, and he came from the Island of Versatility.
He remembered that Tang Jun had mentioned before that he had visited a Sunshine Realm expert called Yuan Du on the Island of Versatility. He wanted to build a relationship with him, but he did not manage to meet him. He was sent away by a constellation constellation subordinate called Yuan Cheng.
That Yuan Cheng was a Star Constellation cultivator. He was young, but extremely arrogant. When Tang Jun was talking about these things, he was very angry, because Yuan Cheng, this Star Constellation, had a very bad attitude towards him.
At this moment, there was no doubt that this person was Yuan Cheng. He had only reported his surname, not even his name. This was not how he should treat Yue Yao.
If he didn't have a powerful backer behind him, he wouldn't have the confidence to speak like this.
"What is it?" Lu Ye narrowed his eyes slightly.
Yuan Cheng smiled and said, "I've already told you my purpose for coming here. You should have heard it."
Lu Ye looked at him expressionlessly. Yuan Cheng wasn't afraid at all. He calmly looked back and said again, "Please spare his life, Fellow Daoist."
Lu Ye said, "What if I say no?"
Yuan Cheng revealed a distressed expression and said earnestly, "Fellow Daoist, cultivation is not easy. A cultivator who wants to cultivate to the Yue Yao Realm has to go through countless hardships. If he dies because of a moment of rashness, wouldn't it be too sad? What do you think, Fellow Daoist?"
At first glance, his words sounded like he was talking about Yu Huan, but anyone could hear the threat in his words. He was just short of warning Lu Ye not to kill Yu Huan on impulse, lest he end up in a miserable state later.
Lu Ye looked at him indifferently and said no more.
Seeing that Lu Ye was unmoved, Yuan Cheng couldn't help but frown and say, "I believe that Fellow Daoist Yu Huan already knows his mistake. If Fellow Daoist can spare his life, he will definitely turn over a new leaf. He will also be willing to compensate Fellow Daoist."
Yu Huan, who had not dared to make a move, quickly said, "That's right. If I can keep my life, Baiyue Island will be on good terms with the Three World Island in the future. I am also willing to compensate …"
Before he could finish speaking, he didn't dare to continue because the magic power in Lu Ye's Mountain Blade began to surge. His face instantly paled, and he felt as if he had stepped into the gates of hell.
Fortunately, Lu Ye withdrew his magic power in time. Even so, Yu Huan's entire body went limp. He had never felt so close to death before.
"Are you here to make peace?" Lu Ye looked at Yuan Cheng.
Yuan Cheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I guess so."
Lu Ye's expression suddenly turned cold, "You think you're worthy?"
Huang Long's Gu Chuan had tried to persuade him before, but it didn't work. However, with Huang Long's status and Yu Huan's secret request, he was qualified to be the one to persuade him.
In comparison, Yuan Cheng's qualifications were far inferior. Moreover, the battle had already reached this stage. How could Lu Ye show mercy just because of Yuan Cheng's words?
As soon as he finished speaking, the Mountain Blade in his hand shook, ready to take Yu Huan's life.
Yuan Cheng's expression changed greatly. His spiritual sense rushed out and he sent a voice transmission to Yu Huan, but it was unknown what he said.
In the next moment, Yu Huan, who was in despair, instinctively shouted, "Yu Huan of Baiyue sincerely requests to be the arbitrator …"
The magic power on the Mountain Blade had already begun to erupt. It would end Yu Huan's life in the next moment. However, at this moment, a huge pressure suddenly descended. Lu Ye felt as if the entire world was pressing down on him, making it difficult for him to circulate his magic power. He couldn't kill Yu Huan.
Not only him, even Ma Shangsi, who was at the peak of Yue Yao's cultivation level, was suppressed on the spot. She couldn't move, and her expression was difficult.
Lu Ye's bones creaked as he jerked his head up. At some point, a figure had appeared in his field of vision, standing on Yuan Cheng's Star Boat.
It was a white-haired old man. He looked dignified without being angry, and there were no traces of magic power fluctuations on his body. However, there was no doubt that the huge pressure came from him.
The Rizhao had arrived in person!
Under normal circumstances, no matter how fierce the battle on the Wanxiang Sea was, as long as the rules weren't broken, Rizhao wouldn't interfere. This was because they were the ones who set the rules. They couldn't take the initiative to break the rules they set. They also wanted the Wanxiang Sea to prosper.
However, if Rizhao of the Wanxiang Sea dared to break the rules they set, then tomorrow, Rizhao of the Wanxiang Sea wouldn't be the only one in the Wanxiang Sea. The Rizhao of other major galaxies could come here at will to protect their own interests. When that time came, how would Rizhao of the Wanxiang Sea control the Wanxiang Sea?
Therefore, compared to other foreign forces, Rizhao of the Wanxiang Sea would abide by the rules they set.
Only if someone broke the rules would the Rizhao of the Wanxiang Sea have a reason to intervene.
Of course, there was another situation, just like this one!
As the Great Island Master of Baiyue Island, Yu Huan took the initiative to request for Rizhao to be the arbitrator. This way, Rizhao's arrival was justified because it was within the rules.
However, it was obviously abnormal for him to come so quickly. This Rizhao arrived almost immediately after Yu Huan requested for arbitration. It was obvious that he had been prepared. It could even be said that he had been hiding nearby, so he showed up as soon as Yu Huan called for him.
Yuan Du!
Even if Lu Ye used his toes to think, he knew who this Rizhao was.
From the looks of it, it was Yuan Du's order for Yuan Cheng to protect Yu Huan's life. However, Lu Ye didn't give Yuan Cheng face, so Yuan Du had to do it himself.
Yuan Cheng sent a voice transmission to Yu Huan just now, asking him to request for arbitration.
On the Star Boat, Yuan Du looked at Lu Ye and the battered Yu Huan with a gloomy expression.
If possible, he didn't want to show himself. After all, it was Rizhao. His arrival would cause too much of a commotion, so he instructed Yuan Cheng to talk to Lu Ye.
However, Lu Ye had no intention of compromising.
After Ma Bin killed Rizhao, he was one of the three Rizhao that replaced him. He had not been operating in the Wanxiang Sea for a long time. Naturally, there were not many Spiritual Islands that were interested in him. However, he valued Baiyue Island very much. This was because this island could provide many places for his disciples to cultivate.
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want Baiyue Island to be lost. Previously, when he heard that the Three World Island was attacking Baiyue, he thought that the cultivators of the Three World Island were crazy. He didn't pay much attention to it, because in his opinion, the Three World Island couldn't defeat Baiyue.
However, as the war progressed, Yuan Du realized that he had underestimated the Three World Island.
Now that Baiyue had been conquered, there was no turning back. However, only Yu Huan couldn't die. He had to protect her.
From an outsider's point of view, Yu Huan had submitted to him. If he couldn't even protect Yu Huan's life, then his prestige would be greatly reduced. Which other spiritual island would want to visit him in the future?
There were five Rizhao in the Wanxiang Sea, and he wasn't the only one. Other than him, there were other Rizhao that other spiritual islands could visit.
Therefore, the reason why he personally came here this time was not because of his deep personal friendship with Yu Huan, but purely because of his own interests.
The great Rizhao was forced into such a situation. He was naturally furious.
If it weren't for the rules, he would have personally taught Lu Ye, this arrogant brat, a lesson.
"Ancestor!" On the Star Boat, Yuan Cheng bowed respectfully. He looked ashamed, "This disciple is useless. Please forgive me!"
Yuan Du waved his hand and stared at Lu Ye. He smiled faintly, "Since this little friend says that you don't have the qualifications, then you can leave."
"Yes!" Yuan Cheng pursed his lips and looked at Lu Ye with resentment. It was a dereliction of duty for him to not complete the task given by the ancestor. It didn't matter if this happened once, but if it happened too often, he would definitely lose favor.
Yuan Du continued in a cold voice, "Little friend, I wonder if this Old Master is qualified?"
The huge pressure on Lu Ye didn't show any signs of decreasing. His flesh and blood wriggled violently, and his bones creaked. He gritted his teeth and replied, "Guardian Yuan, are you here to persuade me? I don't know what your position is. If I remember correctly, Rizhao is not allowed to interfere in the battle of the Wanxiang Sea! "
Lu Ye gritted his teeth so hard that they almost broke. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that he was under great pressure.
"Persuade?" Yuan Du said disdainfully, "Since I'm here, I'm not here to persuade you. Didn't you hear? Someone asked for arbitration, so I'm here to do it. "
"What does the Guardian want to arbitrate? We didn't break any rules in today's battle! "Lu Ye gritted his teeth and replied.
