From Liu Zhenguan's point of view, everything was obviously planned by the Ziwei Daoist Palace, and Pang Huanyin, as the Palace Master, was the culprit.
However, he did not expect Pang Huanyin to be so bold. Not only did she barge into his territory, but she also dared to take the initiative to attack without any warning.
That guy named Lu Yiye had such terrifying strength. If he had not been seriously injured by him, he would not have been captured so easily.
Pang Huanyin sighed, "Mountain Lord Liu, you misunderstood …"
At this point, it was useless to explain. She felt helpless.
Liu Zhenguan snorted coldly, "Don't think that you can do whatever you want after capturing me! Don't forget that this is Mount Meru! " He suddenly shouted, "People of Mount Meru, listen up! Don't worry about my life or death. Capture all these people. If I die, they will be buried with me!"
Ying Wuji thrust his long saber forward and said in a low voice, "If you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish now!"
"You do it!" Even if his life was in the hands of others, Liu Zhenguan had no intention of backing down. Instead, he provoked them, "Kill me if you dare!" Seeing that the people of Mount Meru did not dare to act rashly, he shouted again, "What are you waiting for? Do it! "
Pang Huanyin's expression turned cold, "If only Mountain Lord could be so tough when facing the Corpse Clan. Unfortunately, Mountain Lord's toughness and persistence are used in the wrong place!"
After today's incident, she felt quite sorry for Mount Meru, but when she saw Liu Zhenguan's attitude, she could not help but be annoyed.
If he had such courage and courage to face death, why not use it against the Corpse Clan? What was the point of being so arrogant in front of fellow human clansmen?
Such a person would only be a tyrant in his own home.
"Cut the crap!"
At this moment, Hua Ci's figure came out from behind Pang Huanyin. She looked at Liu Zhenguan and smiled gently, "Mountain Lord Liu, how about I make a deal with you?"
Although Liu Zhenguan appeared to be furious, it was only a disguise. Hearing Hua Ci's words, he couldn't help but frown, "What kind of deal do you want to make?"
Hua Ci said unhurriedly, "Using the lives of all these Sumeru Mountain cultivators in exchange for a chance for us to leave safely, does Mountain Chieftain think this deal is possible?"
Liu Zhenguan's face sank. "What do you mean by that?"
"I might not be able to explain it clearly. Why don't you see it for yourself, Mountain Chieftain?" As Hua Ci spoke, she suddenly lifted her slender finger and activated her spiritual power. She then pointed in the direction of a cultivator in the crowd.
An inconceivable scene appeared.
Following this, the cultivator couldn't help but let out a muffled groan. His spiritual power was instantly thrown into disarray and a layer of dark green mist quickly emerged from his body.
It was obvious that the fog wasn't anything good. It erupted without any warning, and in just a few breaths of time, the cultivator was completely enveloped. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't dissolve the fog, and it even showed signs of becoming denser!
The surrounding cultivators hurriedly dispersed, all of them bewildered.
"I've been poisoned!" The cultivator shouted in horror. He could clearly feel that his spiritual power had become stagnant and obscure, and his strength was rapidly declining.
Everyone was shocked.
Lan Ziyi felt her scalp go numb …
These days, she had been inseparable from Hua Ci, but she had never seen Hua Ci use any tricks on the people of Mount Meru. On the surface, this medical cultivator looked as gentle as jade and harmless to humans and animals, but who would have known that she had such unfathomable abilities!
That cultivator couldn't have been poisoned for no reason. Hua Ci must have done something in secret.
No wonder Hua Ci hadn't been in a hurry these days. Even if she was afraid of being forcefully kissed, she was still calm and peaceful. No wonder she had been thinking about everything these days, but was afraid of being killed by the strong. It turned out that she was a female thief.
She had been prepared.
Now it seemed that even if Lu Yiye and the others didn't come to Sumeru Mountain, Hua Ci would have been able to leave safely with her methods.
Sure enough, those who could be chosen by Tianji were no ordinary people. It was ridiculous that he had thought that she was just a medical cultivator.
In the main hall, in front of Pang Huanyin, Hua Ci was still smiling innocently. "Mountain Master, if you didn't see clearly, you can look at other things!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the many cultivators of Mount Meru were all frightened out of their wits. No one knew if they had secretly done something evil or not.
The muscles on Liu Zhenguan's face were trembling violently, and the corners of his eyes were twitching non-stop. At this moment, how could he not know that he had made a mistake? Between the two women, the one with the gentle temperament was the one with the hidden depths.
It was ridiculous that he had always thought that he could control her at will …
Liu Zhenguan said in a deep voice, "Since you two entered Sumeru Mountain, I've treated you well …"
Hua Ci immediately interrupted him. "We saved the cultivators of Sumeru Mountain, so we entered Sumeru Mountain. It's fine that Sumeru Mountain didn't repay our kindness, but Mountain Master even disregarded my wishes and wanted to force us to meet. Is this what you mean by 'treated well'? Mountain Master, ask yourself, is this what a man should do? You can't be called a man if you act like this! "
The smile on her face was gone, and her eyes were cold. How could she be indifferent when it concerned her own life?
Back then, she had saved Liu Zhenguan out of the goodness of her heart. Who knew that Liu Zhenguan would value her so highly? It would have been fine if he valued her highly. If they had cooperated properly, Hua Ci might have agreed. However, Liu Zhenguan wanted more.
These days, Lan Ziyi thought that she was calm in the face of danger, but in fact, she was secretly deploying her own means, waiting for the right time to strike a heavy blow.
When the time came, with her secret means and Lan Ziyi's powerful strength, it would not be difficult to escape from this place.
The arrival of Lu Ye and the others today only pushed her plan forward.
Liu Zhenguan was embarrassed by her words, and now that he was captured and his life was out of his control, he was so angry that he blurted out, "Bitch, how dare you bully me!"
* Clang … *
The sound of a blade suddenly rang out, and everyone in the hall stared in shock at Lu Ye who had just swung his blade.
Liu Zhenguan's eyes were also filled with disbelief, as if he didn't expect that someone would dare to kill him in Mount Meru!
He was so arrogant just now, even if his life was in the hands of others, but he knew that Ziwei Dao Palace couldn't really kill him, because Ziwei Dao Palace had been trying to join forces with them to fight against the Corpse Race and kill him for so many years. If that happened, the two forces would become mortal enemies, and there would be no possibility of joining forces.
Pang Huanyin was young, but she was experienced in dealing with things, so it was impossible for her not to understand this.
Therefore, he was fearless!
However, this fearlessness was cut off by a saber at this moment.
"You …" Liu Zhenguan stared at Lu Ye, unable to understand. What was this guy doing? Pang Huanyin didn't say anything, but he attacked without warning.
If he wanted to kill him, he could have done it earlier, why would he do it now …
* Puff … *
Ying Wuji, who had been standing behind Liu Zhenguan all this time, hurriedly stepped back and looked at Lu Ye with a bitter expression.
Why didn't you say anything before attacking? You almost made me bleed!
"If I can't make the decision, then I'll find someone else who can!"
Lu Ye shook the blood off the long saber in his hand and looked at the group of furious Mount Meru cultivators. He raised the long saber in his hand and pointed at them. "Or … we can kill our way out!"
Looking at his determined attitude, Hua Ci felt a warm current in her heart.
She could feel that Lu Ye didn't have the intention to kill Liu Zhenguan before, otherwise, he wouldn't have asked Ying Wuji to kill him.
The reason why she had slashed out without any warning was because Liu Zhenguan had scolded her.
A simple insult, but Lu Ye decisively took his life. If Liu Zhenguan knew about it in the underworld, he would definitely regret saying that.
Now that they had completely shed all pretenses of cordiality, Hua Ci naturally didn't hold back anymore. The spiritual power around her surged, and a circle of green air suddenly rippled out.
In the next moment, the expressions of seven or eight of the ten Mount Meru cultivators in the hall changed drastically. Green mist rolled around their bodies, and their spiritual power condensed.
When Hua Ci showed her ability before, many of the Mount Meru cultivators still had a fluke heart, but now they didn't dare to do so.
No one had noticed when this woman, who was as gentle as water, had poisoned them. Many of them had not even seen Hua Ci's face before this.
"Since I can detoxify, I can also use poison. My Senior Brother's temper is not very good. Everyone of Mount Meru, you should think carefully before you answer. Don't make a river of blood when the time comes. There will be no way to clean up the mess." Hua Ci lightly warned.
Even if she didn't warn them, who would dare to act rashly in this situation?
The death of Liu Zhenguan greatly damaged Mount Meru's reputation, but its foundation was not shaken. However, if everyone here died, Mount Meru would definitely be in chaos. For a moment, the bodies of the Mount Meru powerhouses stiffened.
Both Pang Huanyin and Elder Xiao were dumbfounded.
Since the arrival of Hua Ci and Lan Ziyi, it had only been a few dozen breaths, and all kinds of unforeseen events really caught everyone off guard.
With Liu Zhenguan dead, all the Mount Meru powerhouses in the hall were under the control of others. It could be said that Lu Ye and the others completely controlled the bureau with the strength of four people.
With such means, the Ziwei Daoist Palace was no match for them.
With a sigh, an elderly man stepped forward and bowed to Lan Ziyi. "Palace Master Pang, this old man is untalented, but I should be able to represent Lin Yaoping."
Until now, they still thought that Lin Yaoping was the one in charge here, and everything that happened before was under Lin Yaoping's instructions or hints.
Lan Ziyi was also helpless. In today's matter, she and Elder Xiao were just spectators.
"Old Mister, if you have something to say, you can tell Yiye in detail," Lin Yaoping said.
The old man was stunned for a moment. Then, he looked at the Mountain Master, who was brimming with killing intent. Without beating around the bush, he said bluntly, "Today's matter is indeed unpredictable. Putting aside the merits and demerits, I, Pang Huanyin, can agree to Miss Lu Ye's proposal. You can leave safely later. However, I have a condition. If you don't agree to it, I, Pang Huanyin, will do my best to keep you here!"
