Everything happened so suddenly that the others could not react in time!
A green light flashed by with a sharp aura and went straight to Lu An's back. Its power was not to be underestimated! If Lu An was hit by this move, he might not die, but he would definitely be injured, possibly severely!
The green light arrived at Lu An's back in an instant. Just as the green light was about to hit him, Lu An suddenly moved!
In an instant, cold air surged and froze all the mist around him! At the same time, Lu An's body moved to the left by half a step. At the same time, he raised his right arm and the palm that was swung to his back went through his right armpit!
The moment his forearm went through the armpit, Lu An closed his right arm again. His right hand grabbed the opponent's right wrist. The power of the Emperor Dragon Bone burst out and he turned to the left and pressed down!
Bang!!
Jia Mu was smashed to the ground. Even the stone slabs on the ground cracked!
A deafening sound rang out. Everyone in the main hall stood up when they saw this scene. All of them stood up!
Except for Yan Xi and Liang He!
Everyone watched this scene with solemn eyes. As for the Misty Rain Sect's solemn eyes, there was an additional trace of hostility. Jia Mu, who was smashed to the ground, almost lost all her strength. However, what hurt her more was her heart and self-esteem! She was the one who initiated the attack. She attacked Lu An in front of all her clansmen and guests. She could not afford to lose face like this!
Therefore, she tried to launch another attack while lying on the ground. The Fate Wheel in her blood was fully activated!
However …
Bang!
Lu An pressed his palm on her heart. In an instant, a horrifying cold air burst out and poured into her heart. It almost froze her heart and veins in an instant and swept through all her blood and tendons! She felt that the mist in her Fate Wheel was almost frozen. She could not mobilize any strength at all!
The cold air sealed her body. If Lu An did not withdraw the cold air, this woman would not live for more than ten breaths.
Seeing this scene, Yan Xi and Liang He's eyes turned cold. If Lu An killed someone, then no matter what, they would not let this matter rest!
In just a short moment, the woman under Lu An's palm was covered in a layer of ice. This ice contained red blood, which was the blood that spread out after her blood vessels were frozen.
However, Lu An slowly raised his hand. In an instant, a gust of cold air rapidly rose from his palm. All of it came from the woman's body.
When Lu An stood up, most of the cold air had been removed from the woman's body. However, Lu An did not remove all of the cold air. He left 20% of it in the woman's body.
Although there was only 20% left, the coldness in the Deep Ice, which was the limit of the Fate Wheel, was not easy to get rid of. Before it was expelled, the woman's strength would be greatly reduced, and she would not even be able to use 50% of her strength.
After doing all this, Lu An did not continue to walk out of the hall. Instead, he turned around and looked at Yan Xi and Liang He again.
As the saying went, there was a difference in strength. Others might not be able to react to this person's attack, but these two sect leaders would definitely be able to. Any action of a level-8 Celestial Master would be completely powerless in front of a level-9 Celestial Master. In other words, these two people did not even care if he lived or died.
If he had not predicted that this woman might attack, if he had not activated the Demon Gods and Holy Fire realms at the same time, and if she had not been careless and had been disturbed by negative emotions, he would not have been able to subdue a mid-stage level-8 Celestial Master in one move.
At that moment, the two explosive forces had already disappeared. Lu An ignored the people standing on both sides of him, as well as the Misty Rain Sect's people who were ready to fight. He only looked at the two people on the high platform calmly.
"Sect Leader Yan," Lu An said calmly, "you won't blame me, right?"
Yan Xi frowned slightly. After two breaths, he said calmly, "My subordinate was rude first. You're right, Chief Lu."
Then, Yan Xi took a deep breath and said coldly to his subordinate beside him, "Men, take her away and punish her severely!"
Hearing Yan Xi's words, the Misty Rain Sect's people trembled. Although they were dissatisfied, they did not dare disobey their sect leader's orders. Two of them stepped forward to help their companion up and left the hall.
After the injured person left, Liang He, who had been silent, spoke up with a smile. "As the saying goes, no discord, no concord. After the fight, everyone should be more harmonious! Chief Lu, this banquet was specially organized for you. What's the point of you leaving? We can discuss the alliance slowly. There's no rush. There will be a lot of performances later. Let's put everything else aside for now and relax! "
Hearing Liang He's words, Lu An's calm expression finally changed. He smiled faintly and cupped his fists. "Since Sect Leader Liang has spoken, I dare not disobey."
Then, Lu An returned to his seat. Everyone looked at Lu An and took a deep breath before sitting down as well.
From what happened just now, everyone had a judgment of Lu An. This person was amenable to coaxing but not coercion.
Under Yan Xi's orders, the song and dance continued to perform in the hall. Everyone drank and chatted merrily, but the atmosphere was much more awkward and cold than before. The Misty Rain Sect's people would often look at Lu An and point at him. Even Yan Taotao was the same.
She did not discuss with others but kept staring at Lu An. She did not even touch the delicacies on the table. There was a trace of doubt in her weak eyes. She even wanted to walk over and talk to Lu An, but she knew that now was not the right time.
On the opposite side, Lu An naturally felt that Yan Taotao had been looking at him. The two of them just happened to be sitting opposite each other. If he didn't react, it would seem that he was deliberately avoiding her. Therefore, he would occasionally look at Yan Taotao, but it was just a glance and his gaze didn't linger.
The song and dance performance continued. Lu An also sat by himself and did not talk to anyone, including Xu Ying. If the two of them communicated with their divine senses, it was very likely that others would find out. They could only find another opportunity.
Just like that, the more difficult part of the banquet was finally over. Everyone was almost done eating. Next, there was only pure chatting. Yan Xi and Liang He left first, saying that they had something to discuss. The rest of the Thousand Pagodas Divine Sect's people were led around by the Misty Rain Sect's people. Lu An should have done the same, but the Misty Rain Sect's people were hostile to him. No one was willing to take him away.
Soon, there were only a few people left in the hall. One of them was Xu Ying, who was on Lu An's right.
This was a chance for the two of them to communicate alone. Xu Ying looked at Lu An and said, "Alliance Master Lu, why don't we walk together?"
Lu An nodded slightly, got up, and left with Xu Ying.
After the two of them walked out of the hall, they walked down the stairs. The further they went down, the safer it was for them to communicate.
Lu An did not take the initiative to ask. He waited for Xu Ying to take the initiative. He would listen to whatever Xu Ying said.
"Perhaps Alliance Master Lu doesn't know my identity. I come from the Thousand Light Sect and am an idle elder." Xu Ying's voice was gentle as she said, "However, something happened recently. A few days ago, I entered the Thousand Pagodas Divine Sect."
Recently?
Lu An's heart tightened. However, he did not show it, nor did he ask.
"Alliance Master Lu, I have a request. I wonder if you can agree …" Xu Ying's voice was obviously soft and pleading. Her eyes were also looking at Lu An.
Lu An looked at Xu Ying and said, "Senior, please go ahead."
"I want … to see my two daughters," Xu Ying said in a trembling voice.
Lu An did not look surprised when he heard this. He had already guessed that it would be such a request. It was impossible for the other party to mention anything else to him.
However … even so, he could not agree rashly. After all, Liu Yi had said that he must not agree to anything on this trip.
Seeing the hesitation and indifference in Lu An's eyes, Xu Ying suddenly panicked. She quickly said, "I don't need Alliance Master Lu to bring them out. I'm willing to go to the Ice Fire Alliance and not cause trouble for Alliance Master Lu!"
Lu An still did not speak. He was naturally willing to let Xu Ying meet his two daughters. However, if this action would put the women in the family in danger, he was not willing to take the risk, even if it was just a little bit.
Looking at Xu Ying's pleading eyes, Lu An thought for a moment. Then, he took a light breath and said, "I can't agree to this. Two days later, go to the South Gate of the Montenegrin Empire. If there are square patterns carved on the stone bricks on the city wall, you can go to the Ice Fire Alliance to find me. If not, even if you come, I won't allow you to meet them."
After hearing Lu An's words, Xu Ying's eyes suddenly lit up. She said gratefully, "Thank you, Alliance Master Lu!"
