"Where are those people?" Lu Ye asked.
Lin Yin Xiu was responsible for guarding the people who were captured before. Now that she didn't guard the prisoners properly and ran over, wouldn't there be no one guarding over there?
Lin Yin Xiu smiled confidently. "Don't worry, Nightingale is watching over there. They can't run away."
The three hurriedly turned back. When they arrived, Lu Ye realized where Lin Yin Xiu's confidence came from.
On the spirit boat, the five of them were bound by her net-like treasure and were surrounded by Explosive Fire Spirit Stones. Nightingale's forehead was covered in cold sweat as she held an Explosive Talisman and stared at them vigilantly.
She looked like she would activate the Explosive Talisman at any time if anyone dared to move and send them on their way.
In such a situation, who dared to run around? They all stayed where they were and didn't move.
Although Nightingale was bribed by the Zhou Clan and didn't pass on the information, he was still a member of the Law Division. His actions were exposed by Lu Ye, and now was a chance to redeem himself. Since Lin Yin Xiu gave him this opportunity, Nightingale naturally seized it.
Seeing Lu Ye and the others return, Nightingale was relieved.
Lin Yin Xiu stepped forward and put away the Explosive Fire Spirit Stones and her big net treasure.
Lu Ye threw Zhou Wang onto the spirit boat and waited quietly.
The Zhou Clan's efficiency was very high. Not long after they returned, Zhou Ze rushed over with a medical cultivator.
The medical cultivator examined Zhou Wang's injuries, and Zhou Ze came to Lu Ye's side and cupped his hands. "Fellow Daoist Niu, today's matter is my Zhou Clan's fault. I'm sorry, but I hope that Fellow Daoist Niu can understand the Zhou Clan's intention to protect the disciples of the clan."
"I can understand," Lu Ye replied indifferently. "I also hope that the Zhou Clan can understand our difficult work."
The people had already been captured. Although the process wasn't very pleasant, the other party had already lowered their attitude, so there was no need to be unforgiving.
This time, he had come here to complete his mission.
Zhou Ze couldn't help but nod. "This old man understands!" He looked around and said in a low voice, "This old man has a request, and I hope that Fellow Daoist will agree."
"Let's hear it."
"The things that the Zhou Clan gave to the two Fellow Daoists today … Please don't report it. Otherwise, it won't be good for you or my Zhou Clan."
"What is it?"
Bribing a member of the Law Enforcement Hall in private was indeed not beneficial to the Zhou Clan if word got out. However, it was also not beneficial to those Law Enforcement Hall members who had come to carry out missions previously.
If they really wanted to investigate, the Law Enforcement Hall team that came to the Zhou family to carry out a mission would definitely be implicated.
Lu Ye was now working in the Law Department, and his job was to offend people. However, he didn't want to needlessly offend his colleagues, so he didn't intend to report this matter.
Besides, how could Qian Wudang not know about this? Perhaps he had known all along and was just turning a blind eye to it.
Since the Division Head was already like this, why should he meddle?
Hearing Lu Ye's words, Zhou Ze stroked his beard and smiled faintly, "This old man remembered wrongly. Please don't blame me, Fellow Daoist Niu."
As they spoke, the medical cultivator had already treated Zhou Wang's injuries. His injuries only looked miserable, but they were not serious. Naturally, it was not difficult to treat them.
"Fellow Daoist Niu, please do your best to take care of this good-for-nothing disciple of my Zhou Clan during your trip to Vast Sky City.
"I'm only responsible for bringing him back to Vast Sky City. As long as he doesn't do anything unnecessary, I won't do anything to him."
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist."
Lu Ye nodded and turned to look at Nightingale who was waiting to be punished. His face darkened, "You can go to Vast Sky City to receive your punishment."
Nightingale felt as if she had been pardoned. "Yes!"
She took out her flying spiritual artifact and hurried away. Judging from the direction she was heading, she was indeed heading to Vast Sky City.
"Goodbye!" Lu Ye turned around and cupped his hands at Zhou Ze before stepping onto the spiritual artifact. After a short while, the spiritual artifact soared into the sky and turned into a beam of light, quickly disappearing into the distance.
Zhou Ze watched as the spiritual artifact left. He turned around and flew toward Dingtian City. Soon, he returned to the Zhou Clan's manor and met the current Patriarch of the Zhou Clan, Zhou Dingtian, in a forbidden area.
The name of Dingtian City was also derived from him.
The forbidden area was where Lu Ye had sensed the presence of a Divine Ocean Realm cultivator. It was also the place where Zhou Dingtian cultivated.
"Patriarch, they are gone," Zhou Ze reported.
Zhou Dingtian sighed slightly, "There will be such a day."
"Patriarch, if you don't want to let them go, why did you let them go?"
"What else can I do? Force them to stay? " Zhou Dingtian shook his head slowly, "If they were just two ordinary True Lake Realm cultivators, I wouldn't care about them. However, they have the Law Department behind them. You shouldn't have bothered them. If I did something, things would only get worse. Besides … if I'm not mistaken, that kid with the surname of Niu should be the rising star of the Jade Blood Sect."
"Jade Blood Sect?" Zhou Ze was a bit surprised, but he soon realized, "You mean Lu Yiye? How so? "
Zhou Dingtian said, "The Four Sacred Beasts!"
Lu Yiye of the Jade Blood Sect had been in the limelight in recent years. He had stirred up trouble in the Demons Ridge in the Spiritual Stream Battlefield and the Cloud River Battlefield. Naturally, many people had noticed him.
Zhou Dingtian had noticed him before.
When the Fire Phoenix of the Four Sacred Beasts used its means, Zhou Dingtian was sure of Lu Ye's identity. He had received a report about Lu Ye's deeds in the Hunting Ground.
Lu Ye had used the Fire Phoenix in the Hunting Ground.
If Zhou Dingtian still didn't know that Niu Meng was Lu Ye, he would have lived in vain.
"Tang Yifeng has been revived and is now in the Elder Group. You've heard about him. If I make things difficult for Lu Yiye here, I'm afraid Tang Yifeng will come to our Zhou Clan tomorrow."
Zhou Ze's head was covered in cold sweat, and his expression was full of lingering fear. He was glad that because he was concerned about Lu Yiye's status as a member of the Law Enforcement Hall, he had ordered the Zhou Clan's cultivators to only surround him and not injure him. Otherwise, if Lu Yiye was really injured and Tang Yifeng was drawn out … it would be very difficult to wrap things up.
"But Young Master Zhou Wang …"
Zhou Dingtian sighed slightly, "Send a message to Zhou Kui. Ask him to do his best. I don't expect to be exempted from punishment. Just make sure he doesn't die."
"Yes!"
…
"Junior Brother, is this the direction to Ao Mountain?" On the spiritual boat, Xiao Xinghe checked the map and found that the spiritual boat was not flying to Haotian City, but to Ao Mountain.
"It's on the way. I have something to do in the sect."
"Okay. I haven't seen Second Senior Sister for a long time." Xiao Xinghe nodded. Suddenly, he remembered something and took out two storage bags. "These things …"
They were the two storage bags that Zhou Ze gave them before. There were many good things in them.
"Senior Brother, you can keep them for cultivation. I don't lack cultivation resources, and neither does Yinxiu."
With Qian Wu as her backer, how could Lin Yinxiu lack cultivation resources?
"That's not good. Junior Brother, didn't you say …" Xiao Xinghe hesitated.
"I was just saying. Can you really hand them over?"
Xiao Xinghe was speechless. Earlier, Lu Ye had forcefully charged into the Zhou Clan and brazenly made a move, and he'd forcefully captured Zhou Wang right under the noses of a group of Zhou Clan cultivators. It caused him to think that this Junior Brother of his was upright and upright, upright, and law-abiding.
He was relieved.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony." Xiao Xinghe laughed and put away the storage bags.
Although it was on the way, it was a detour, but the general direction was right.
At noon the next day, the spirit boat arrived at the boundary of Ao Mountain. After flying forward for a long time, they finally arrived at the Guarding Peak.
The huge peak was still empty. There was not a single person in sight.
Although the Jade Blood Sect had many disciples now, they had only cultivated for a short time. They were either cultivating hard in the Spirit Stream Battlefield or in the Cloud River Battlefield. Naturally, the main sect was quiet.
Unlike other sects, whether it was the main sect or the two major battlefields, there were a large number of disciples coming and going.
But soon, a familiar figure came into sight. It was Shui Yuan, who had noticed the movement.
When she saw Lu Ye and Xiao Xinghe on the bow of the boat, Shui Yuan's face was full of smiles.
The spirit boat landed, and Lu Ye jumped off. "Second Senior Sister."
Shui Yuan nodded slightly and turned her gaze to Xiao Xinghe.
Xiao Xinghe took a deep breath and calmed the excitement in his heart. He grinned at Shui Yuan and said, "Second Senior Sister, I'm back."
Shui Yuan's eyes were a little misty. She raised her hand and patted Xiao Xinghe's shoulder gently. Because of her height, she even tiptoed a little.
Just when Lu Ye thought she was going to enjoy the warm scene of sister and brother, Shui Yuan's jade-like hand grabbed Xiao Xinghe's ear and twisted it fiercely. Gritting her teeth, she said, "You still know to come back. I haven't seen you for several years. I thought you died outside!"
Xiao Xinghe tilted his head and bent his back. He bared his teeth and begged for mercy. "It hurts, Little Junior Brother, save me!"
Lu Ye silently took a few steps back and said decisively, "I'm going to pay my respects to Master!"
It was best to escape first!
On the spirit boat that had not been put away, Zhou Wang and the others trembled when they sensed the aura of Shui Yuan's Divine Sea Realm cultivator.
On the other hand, Lin Yin Xiu was watching with a smile on her face, looking curious.
On the Clear Heart Peak, Lu Ye arrived with ease. She did not expect to only see her Master's clone, Xiao Die.
Of course, Xiao Die was her Master's clone, which was equivalent to her Master herself.
According to her, in the process of repairing the Dragon Emperor, her Master had received a lot of inspiration. After the Sect Master left with the Dragon Emperor, she began to meditate in seclusion.
Since she was in seclusion, Lu Ye naturally did not want to disturb her. Her Master also needed to be distracted by using her clone to talk to him.
After listening to her teachings for a while, Lu Ye hurriedly left the Clear Heart Peak.
Just as she was about to return to the Clear Heart Peak, a message suddenly came from the battlefield imprint. Lu Ye checked and found that it was Yiyi.
When he came here just now, Yiyi and Hu Po had separated from him and headed to the Green Bamboo Peak.
The Green Bamboo Peak was Lu Ye's spiritual peak. Because she did not come back often, every time she came back, Yiyi would clean it up.
"Lu Ye, come quickly. There seems to be someone here."
"Who is it?" Lu Ye was surprised. This was the Jade Blood Sect's main sect. The Green Bamboo Peak was his spiritual peak. Shui Yuan was also here all year round. Who could run over there?
