The sudden appearance of the two women caused the atmosphere in the hall to become strange.
Pang Huanyin and Elder Xiao obviously didn't know what was going on and were both surprised.
Liu Zhenguan's face darkened. The scene he didn't want to see the most still happened.
How did they get here? A bunch of trash, they couldn't even stop two people!
He glared fiercely at the group of female cultivators who rushed over and quickly walked down from the main seat. With a smile on his face, he greeted the two women who broke into the hall. "Why are you here? If there's anything, you could've asked someone to inform me. Why did you have to come here personally?"
He made up his mind that he couldn't let Pang Huanyin know about this gentle woman's ability.
As he spoke, he gave a look to the female cultivators behind them. Only then did the female cultivators retreat, but they still had lingering fear on their faces. They could feel that in the simple exchange just now, the woman with the dual sabers had shown mercy. Otherwise, many of them would have died.
"Which one of you is Palace Master Pang Huanyin?" Of the two women, the gentle and quiet one asked softly.
Although it was a question, her eyes immediately fell on Pang Huanyin. Then, she glanced at Lu Ye who was beside Pang Huanyin with a smile in her eyes.
Now that things had come to this point, it was no longer realistic to try to stop anything. Liu Zhenguan still had some vigilance in his heart and said, "It seems that Palace Master Pang's gift is indeed extraordinary. Come, come, come, let me introduce you!"
He became more and more curious. What kind of gift did Pang Huanyin have that she had to come here personally to thank him? In terms of overall strength, the Ziwei Daoist Palace was indeed stronger than the other two sects, but in terms of wealth, it might not be as good as his own. What kind of gift could Pang Huanyin have?
Under his lead, the two women came to Pang Huanyin.
Liu Zhenguan said, "This is the Palace Master of the Ziwei Daoist Palace, Palace Master Pang Huanyin."
He didn't introduce the two women to Pang Huanyin. After they thanked him, he immediately sent them away.
Pang Huanyin didn't move and nodded with a smile. "It's just a small gift. It's fine as long as you like it." She paused for a moment and asked, "How should I address you?"
She was indeed a beauty. Her temperament was also the type that men liked. However, her cultivation didn't seem to be very high. He didn't know what special ability she had that made Liu Zhenguan want to marry her.
Compared to the gentle woman in front of her, Pang Huanyin was more concerned about the tall woman behind her. She could sense that this woman was not someone to be trifled with.
"Hua Ci!" She then introduced the girl behind her, "This is my senior sister, Lan Ziyi."
Lan Ziyi didn't say anything and just kept staring at Lu Ye. There was a faintly discernible smile at the corner of his mouth. With this person here, things would be much easier.
Lu Ye's eyelids drooped slightly as he sat motionless.
When Pang Huanyin saw this strange scene, she suddenly realized something and her heart skipped a beat.
"Alright, it's late. You've thanked me. Go back and rest," Liu Zhenguan urged.
However, Hua Ci acted as if she didn't hear him. She glanced past Pang Huanyin and looked at Lu Ye.
Lu Ye looked up and met her eyes. He was a little amused, but also a little annoyed and helpless. "You want to get married?"
Hua Ci curled her lips. "I didn't agree to anything. It's just their wishful thinking."
Lu Ye nodded. "Then it's bullying."
"That's right!" Hua Ci's expression was serious. She couldn't help but say coquettishly, "You have to make a decision for me!"
Lan Ziyi, who was behind her, couldn't help but be surprised. She looked at Hua Ci and then at Lu Ye in confusion. Why did the two of them sound so … familiar?
As far as she knew, the two of them shouldn't know each other. But now, it seemed that things weren't as she thought.
Lu Yiye and Hua Ci must have known each other for a long time. It was just that they pretended not to know each other when they were in the Land of the Nine States.
And from the looks of it, they didn't just know each other!
This was going to be a good show to watch!
However, Lu Yiye was really insidious. He deliberately hid his relationship with Hua Ci. What was he trying to do?
Lan Ziyi quietly took two steps back. How could someone as strong as Lu Yiye remain indifferent in such a situation? She didn't want to be splashed with blood when he raised his blade.
"Yiye, what's going on?" Although Pang Huanyin had some suspicions, she couldn't help but want to confirm it.
As soon as the words left her mouth, she felt a pair of sharp eyes staring at her.
"Yiye …" Hua Ci's voice was faint, and she looked like she was about to cry. "No wonder you didn't care about me these past few days. It turns out you have a new lover. As expected, it's always the newlyweds who laugh. How can you hear the old crying?"
As she said that, she even pretended to wipe the corner of her eyes with her sleeve.
Lu Ye felt a headache coming on!
Lan Ziyi secretly praised the show!
Although Pang Huanyin didn't know what was going on, she could more or less sense something. She hurriedly explained, "Miss Hua Ci, it's not what you think! Yiye and I … "
"Hua Ci! What's going on?! "Liu Zhenguan's face turned green.
Since Lan Ziyi brought Hua Ci into this place, the development of the situation was completely out of his control. The scene in front of him was like a scene of a man and a woman who had been separated for a long time. It made him furious.
"Who are you to call Hua Ci by her name?!"
Lu Ye suddenly raised her head and looked at Liu Zhenguan with a gaze as sharp as a blade.
Liu Zhenguan was shocked. At this moment, he couldn't help but feel like a sheep being stared at by a ferocious tiger, and he was the harmless sheep. In an instant, his whole body turned cold.
"How dare you!"
"How dare you!"
Someone shouted loudly.
Lu Ye had already jumped out of her seat. She picked up Hua Ci and threw her to Pang Huanyin. Like the wind, she rushed in front of Liu Zhenguan.
Clang …
She unsheathed her long blade, and a fiery red blade light flashed.
When she saw Hua Ci and Lan Ziyi, Lu Ye knew that today's matter was destined to not end peacefully. Since that was the case, she had to make the first move!
It was impossible to reason with them. Strength was the biggest reason.
"How dare you!" Liu Zhenguan was furious. The spiritual power and Qi and blood in his body instantly burst out. He raised his hand and summoned an extremely heavy blade to meet the fiery red blade light.
Although the earth cultivators of Mount Meru did not have the determination and courage of the cultivators of Ziwei Dao Palace to fight the Corpse Race to the death, they were all sitting here with high cultivation, so their reaction was naturally not slow.
The moment Lu Ye made her move, the group of Mount Meru cultivators had already moved. In an instant, the spiritual power in the hall surged, and the scene became chaotic.
Pang Huanyin's expression changed greatly. She never expected things to develop like this.
She knew that Mount Meru would definitely make things difficult for her on this trip, but it should not be a fight. Mount Meru had scruples, so as long as they operated properly, it should not be a problem for them to escape unscathed.
However, the current situation was completely out of her control. The only thing she could do was to protect Hua Ci as much as possible.
Lu Ye threw Hua Ci to her before she made her move. Obviously, this was her purpose.
When she thought of this, she quickly pulled Hua Ci behind her. When she looked up again, her expression froze.
This was because she saw Liu Zhenguan's figure flying high with a huge wound on his chest and abdomen. His flesh was torn open, and blood was spilling out. His rough face was full of shock, as if he did not expect to be seriously injured by a single blade strike!
This was the first time Pang Huanyin saw Lu Ye make a move, so the shock in her heart was no less than Liu Zhenguan's.
Previously, when Feng Rulie revealed his strength in Ziwei Dao Palace, he bluntly said that the nine Senior Brothers were ranked according to strength, so as the Eldest Senior Brother, Lu Ye should be the strongest.
However, Pang Huanyin did not know how strong this strongest person was. Although she had speculated in her heart, now it seemed that her speculation had completely underestimated Lu Ye's ability.
Liu Zhenguan's strength was not as good as hers, but it should be only a little, otherwise, he would not be able to sit on the position of Mount Meru's Mountain Lord. However, such a powerhouse was seriously injured by Lu Ye in a single move.
It seemed that this was the result of Lu Ye showing mercy; otherwise, Liu Zhenguan might not have survived.
Although there were elements of a sneak attack, it was enough to show Lu Ye's strength.
On the other hand, Lan Ziyi's performance also shocked Pang Huanyin. This tall and slender woman danced with two sabers in her hands and blocked all the Mount Meru cultivators who were pouncing on Lu Ye by herself. Although the situation seemed to be in danger, Pang Huanyin knew that she did not have the ability to do so.
In other words, this Lan Ziyi's strength … surpassed hers!
After seriously injuring Liu Zhenguan with one saber strike, Lu Ye did not pursue. Instead, he held the sabers in his hand and stood quietly in place.
Liu Zhenguan fell to the ground.
Just as he struggled to get up, he suddenly froze as if he was struck by lightning.
This was because he felt a stabbing pain in his back, as if something sharp had pierced his body, and it was only an inch away from his heart.
There was someone behind him!
Liu Zhenguan's hair stood on end. Before the other party attacked, he did not notice at all.
Who could it be?
He looked around and saw Pang Huanyin, Elder Xiao, Lu Yiye, Hua Ci, and Lan Ziyi …
All the recent outsiders were here. Who else would sneak up on him from behind?
He could not say that there was a traitor in Mount Meru, right?
"Everyone, stop!"
An unfamiliar voice came to his ears. It was not loud, but the noise in the hall quieted down as soon as it came out.
The Mount Meru cultivators' eyes almost popped out of their sockets as they looked at Liu Zhenguan, who was being held hostage by Ying Wuji.
At the same time, they were puzzled. Where did this guy come from? They had never seen him before.
Pang Huanyin and Elder Xiao couldn't help but gasp in amazement. Before Ying Wu Ji made his move, they didn't even notice his presence. They didn't even know that Ying Wu Ji was hiding in the hall!
Such a way of hiding and attacking was truly terrifying!
Even though he was being held hostage and severely injured, Liu Zhenguan did not show the slightest fear. He only looked at Pang Huanyin and gritted his teeth. "Pang Huanyin, you're good. So this is your plan!"
