Rumble … …
The defensive formation activated, announcing the end of the battle.
To everyone's surprise, Wang Yangcheng was the one who activated the formation even though no one had admitted defeat. Victory and defeat had already been displayed in front of everyone's eyes, it didn't matter if they admitted defeat. But if the stalemate continued, problems would arise.
After the formation was activated, Lu An didn't stay for long. The redness in his eyes had already disappeared, as he flew towards the cliff, returning to the side of the seven girls.
They naturally knew that Lu An wasn't injured, but they looked at Lu An worriedly, not knowing what to do next.
Guang You sect's people immediately entered the arena, bringing the heavily injured Tian Du away. This battle was completely one-sided, just like what the majority thought, only they were wrong about who won or lost.
After this battle, no one would have any doubts about Lu An's strength, even the core elders on the cliff were the same. Everyone on the cliff stared at Lu An with a grave expression, their hearts cold. Was this the strength of the Hachiko clan?
The world was deathly silent, even Wang Yangcheng was seriously looking at Lu An. No one entered the arena to battle, the comparison was too shameful. After a few breaths, Huang Ding took a deep breath, and said to everyone. "It's almost noon, let's end the morning sparring here, to avoid delaying the lunch banquet!"
Everyone trembled, then heaved a sigh of relief in their hearts. The Sovereign and Headmaster on the cliff nodded in agreement. Immediately, everyone walked towards the banquet seats, including the Elders in the sky.
Lu An and the seven girls quickly returned to the inner circle of the Ice Fire Union, only to see Liu Yi looking at Lu An worriedly, using her spirit sense she asked. "Husband, why did you attack so heavily today?"
Looking at Liu Yi's expression, Lu An knew that if he didn't explain, everyone would be very worried. Thus, he used his Divine Sense to inform the seven women of what Fu Yu had said to him.
Hearing Lu An's explanation, the seven women were even more surprised. They never thought that it was actually Fu Yu's suggestion to Lu An. That's right, they should have guessed this earlier. Lu An had gone through so many life and death situations, but his personality had never changed. Why would he suddenly change this time? There was only one person in this world who could change him, and that was Fu Yu.
Since it was Fu Yu's request, everyone naturally accepted it. Liu Yi frowned and pondered over the meaning of Fu Yu's words. Fu Yu had changed Lu An's request, so she had to change the whole Ice Fire League to match it.
Could it be that … he was still too conservative?
Taking a light breath, Liu Yi looked at the thirty-one sects that had formed a circle. Every sect leader and sect leader had appeared, and there were over a hundred Level Nine Heavenly Masters present. The Ice Fire League was too weak.
The thirty-one sects entered their seats, and there was still some time before noon. Everyone was discussing spiritedly. The focus of the discussion was the battle just now. Those in the outer circle didn't know Lu An's background, so they were all blindly guessing. Those in the inner circle looked even more serious. It was obvious that Lu An's public display of strength was far beyond their expectations.
Finally, noon arrived, and Huang Ding immediately ordered, "Men! Start the banquet! "
Immediately, ritual music sounded from the surrounding mountains again. It was very pleasant to the ears from afar, and it eased everyone's nervous mood. Dishes that were far more sumptuous than the morning banquet were served. Everyone's attention was finally attracted from the battle just now to the delicious food. Their appetite was greatly stimulated, and they began to eat.
In the center of the banquet, the sects' performances immediately entered the venue. It had to be said that these performances were very unique to the sects, and couldn't be seen outside. Soon, everyone was attracted by the performances and completely relaxed.
After a short while, Wang Yangcheng suddenly opened his mouth and said loudly to Lu An, "Brother Lu, your strength is actually so strong. You hid it from me for so long!"
When everyone heard Wang Yangcheng's voice, they all looked over. Lu An, who was talking to the seven girls, was also startled. He turned to look at Wang Yangcheng and said with a smile, "Sect Master Wang, you misunderstand. It's just that I didn't have the chance."
"I really didn't expect that Brother Lu's movement technique is not only brilliant, but his bloodline power is even more powerful!" Wang Yangcheng was not stingy with his praise. "If I was a Level 8 Heavenly Master, I'm afraid I wouldn't be Brother Lu's match!"
"Sect Master Wang is too kind," Lu An said with a smile.
"You're too kind!" Suddenly, a voice came from the north. It was none other than Huang Ding. He looked at Lu An and said loudly, "Today, Alliance Head Lu's performance has opened my eyes. I saw the powerful ice and fire. In the future, if Alliance Head Lu is free, please come to the Earth Sect and give these elders some pointers. I will definitely treat you with great hospitality."
When Huang Ding's words came out, everyone's hearts immediately tightened. There was no doubt that Huang Ding's statement was very inclined to the Ice Fire Union. This meant that in addition to the powerful Yin Yang Divine Sect, even the Earth Sect was very likely to stand on the Ice Fire Union's side. Two such powerful sects, plus the Ice Fire Union's two allies and two friends, instantly made the Ice Fire Union the largest faction among the sects.
In this way, the sects that had grudges against the Ice Fire Union were in great danger, especially those that had unresolvable grudges. For example, Guang You Sect, Wan Guang Sect, Ye Fire Sect, and some sects with less grudges, such as Xuan Chong Sect and Six Paths Sect, immediately felt a strong sense of danger.
In the past, there were many reasons why they didn't care about the Ice Fire Union. The most important reason was that they didn't think that Lu An would live past the ten-year agreement. But now, Lu An's cultivation speed and strength had greatly exceeded their imagination. They suddenly felt that Lu An could really become a Level 9 Heavenly Master within the ten-year agreement. In the remaining years, the Hachiko Clan wouldn't care about Lu An. With the power of ice and fire that Lu An had just displayed, he could completely pose a threat to any sect!
Immediately, the sects that had grudges against Lu An all had killing intent in their hearts. They wanted to kill Lu An before he became a Level 9 Heavenly Master! Especially the Guang You Sect and Ye Fire Sect. Both sects knew that Lu An wouldn't let them go. They would die anyway. Even if the Hachiko Clan took revenge on them, they had to kill Lu An first!
Not only did Huang Ding take the initiative to show goodwill to Lu An, but also some sects that had never interacted with Lu An before. Seeing this scene, Liu Yi's mind was spinning rapidly. She was thinking about how to adjust the external strategy of the Ice Fire Union, and change it fundamentally.
The sects' performances came one after another. There were many performances in the two-hour luncheon. Soon, it was the Ice Fire Union's turn. The Ice Fire Union was different from other sects. Its foundation was too shallow, and it didn't have a unique performance. In fact, the Ice Fire Union's best performance was Bian Qingliu's calligraphy and painting. But performing calligraphy and painting in a banquet where others were singing and dancing … It was really inappropriate.
Immediately, ten people in the outer circle stood up and prepared to perform. All ten of them looked a little embarrassed. They had rehearsed urgently in the past month. Compared to the previous performance, it was like heaven and earth. Liu Yi also had a headache. She said to Lu An, "Husband, don't have high hopes for the performance later."
Lu An was startled. He turned around and looked at the ten people who were preparing to enter the stage. It was obvious that these ten people didn't want to embarrass themselves. Lu An thought for a moment. He turned around and said to Liu Yi, "Do you mind if I show off again?"
Liu Yi was startled. The six girls were the same. They immediately realized that Lu An was going to perform personally. They naturally didn't mind Lu An showing off. Moreover, they also wanted to know what Lu An would perform. They really wanted to see it!
"Of course not!" Liu Yi said happily.
Lu An smiled. He stood up and said to the ten people who had walked to the inner circle, "You can go back. I will perform."
The ten people were startled. They immediately felt relieved. They said to Lu An gratefully, "Thank you, Leader!"
Originally, everyone in the banquet was looking forward to the performance of the Ice Fire Union. They were even more curious when they saw the ten people suddenly run back to the outer circle. Then, they saw Lu An walk out of the inner circle. Suddenly, everyone was shocked and looked at Lu An in astonishment!
Could it be that … Lu An was going to perform something personally?
Soon, under everyone's gaze, Lu An stood in the center of the venue. Like the previous performances, the performer needed to introduce the content of the performance first. After looking around, Lu An said calmly, "Let's go.
"The content of the performance is very ordinary. It is a training method that my master taught me a long time ago," Lu An said.
As soon as he said that, the people of the 31 sects were stunned!
Master?!
