Eight Ancient Continent, Alliance Headquarters.
It was still late at night, and not much time had passed. However, the events of this night were overwhelming, and each event was heavier than the previous one. From the looks of it, the mission to deal with the Mystical Beast was secondary. What they were experiencing now was the most important thing.
Not long after Liu Yi interrogated Fang Xuan and Chu Shanchuan and Fang Xuan left, a Teleportation Array was activated in the underground headquarters. Everyone was shocked and turned to look.
It was none other than the Deputy Sect Master of the Hundred Weapon Sect, Ke Shenghua.
The Hundred Weapon Sect was an ally of the Heaven Devouring Sect. Therefore, when Mo Ce entered the Teleportation Array, the Sect Master of the Hundred Weapon Sect, Du Ji, and Ke Shenghua immediately followed. This time, Ke Shenghua did not return alone. He brought a person covered in blood with him.
Everyone looked over. Although this person had his head lowered and was covered in blood, his appearance could not be seen clearly. But from this person's attire and the last bit of Qi he had left, they could clearly tell that he was one of the sect masters of Guang You Sect who had just escaped, Liu Ju!
Caught one!
Ke Shenghua raised his hand and threw Liu Ju out. Liu Ju's body fell heavily in the middle of the crowd, right next to Jue Nian.
Seeing Liu Ju in such a miserable state, Jue Nian was shocked. Being chased by ten Level Nine Heavenly Masters, it was indeed too difficult to escape.
Warsky, who had always been a man of few words, saw this scene. Wang Yangcheng, Huang Ding, and Mo Ce had all left, so he had to take charge. He looked at Ke Shenghua and asked, "What about the other one?"
"We haven't caught him yet," Ke Shenghua said. "They are still chasing."
Warsky nodded slightly, but he still did not want to say too much. He turned to the crowd and said, "We have caught one. Anyone who wants to interrogate him is free to do so."
Hearing Warsky's words, everyone could not help but look at each other. Whoever spoke would give others the feeling that they were stealing the limelight. No one wanted to steal the limelight.
If Warsky did not take charge of the interrogation, then the only one who could be interrogated was … the Ice Fire Union.
Everyone turned to look at Lu An and Liu Yi. However, Lu An naturally would not take the initiative to say anything. He had to wait for his wife's opinion.
Obviously, Liu Yi did not plan to say anything. She just looked at everyone calmly. She knew that someone would not be able to resist the urge to interrogate her.
Liu Yi was right. Two breaths later, a person suddenly spoke. It was none other than the Black Thunder Sect's Sovereign, Gai Jiuzhou!
He took a deep breath and said loudly to the crowd, "Who can wake him up? Let me ask! "
Everyone shuddered upon hearing this. One had to know that the Guang You Sect and the Black Thunder Sect were allies. Of course, the moment of the incident was in the past. Gai Jiu Zhou had taken the initiative to speak now to make his stance clear.
Liu Yi turned to look at the Misty Rain Sect's Sect Master, Yan Xi. Yan Xi understood and immediately raised his hand. A thick stream of healing energy surged towards the center, enveloping Liu Ju. As long as Liu Ju's injuries were treated slightly, it would be enough to wake him up. Facing Guang You Sect, Yan Xi only had killing intent.
Soon, Liu Ju's body began to visibly tremble during the healing process. Less than three breaths after the healing power disappeared, Liu Ju was barely able to move. Using his arms to support his body, he raised his head and looked around.
Liu Ju looked around and realized that he had been brought back to this place. Despair welled up in his heart. However, Liu Ju was not afraid of death like Jue Nian. This despair did not make him beg for mercy. Instead, he laughed out loud!
"Hahaha!!"
"Hahaha!!"
Liu Ju laughed maniacally. Blood kept flowing out of his mouth, but it could not stop his laughter. The laughter entered everyone's ears. Everyone frowned and looked at Liu Ju solemnly.
Liu Ju laughed for ten breaths and did not stop. Gai Jiuzhou finally could not hold it in and shouted at Liu Ju, "Stop laughing!"
Gai Jiuzhou's voice carried a certain amount of power that went straight for Liu Ju. Usually, it would not be a big deal. However, Liu Ju was severely injured. His body shook and his laughter stopped.
"Cough cough …" Liu Ju coughed violently, spitting blood all over the ground.
"Speak!" Gai Jiuzhou looked at Liu Ju and shouted angrily, "Where is Guang You Sect?!"
Hearing Gai Jiuzhou's question, Liu Ju, who felt slightly better after coughing, turned to look at him. Even though he had stopped laughing, his eyes and mouth were still smiling.
No one could tell what this smile meant. Was it arrogance or mockery?
"Sect Master Gai." Liu Ju's voice was very weak, but he said each word clearly, "You have also attacked the Ice Fire Union. Do you think that by interrogating me, the Ice Fire Union will not kill you?"
"…"
Gai Jiuzhou immediately frowned, clenched his fists, and glared at Liu Ju!
"Even if we start a war, our Black Thunder Sect will fight fair and square. We will not play these disgusting tricks behind our backs like you!" Gai Jiuzhou shouted angrily, "You have formed an alliance and still did such a thing. Don't you feel ashamed?!"
"Ashamed?" The smile on Liu Ju's face became even more obvious as he said, "How can killing people be so shameless? Sect Master Gai, your heart is really too childish! In this world, only the living are the winners. The dead are always the losers. No matter how unscrupulous the living are, no matter how honorable the dead are, it will not change the fact of winning or losing. Don't you understand this? "
"…"
Gai Jiuzhou looked at Liu Ju and gritted his teeth, but he didn't know what to say.
Everyone present looked at Liu Ju, and no one spoke, including Liu Yi.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.
"You can say this, but you are just selfish."
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked and immediately turned to look, including Liu Yi.
The one who spoke was none other than Lu An.
Liu Ju also tried to turn around and turned to look at Lu An behind him. When he looked at the young man, the smile on his face finally disappeared completely.
"Whether life or death, win or lose, it's only about you." Lu An looked at Liu Ju with a pair of black eyes. His voice was very calm and there was no fluctuation at all. He said, "For you, only you are the most important. You can give up anyone and anything else. That's why you can say this."
"…" Every time he saw this young man, Liu Ju couldn't keep calm and shouted as if he was irritated, "What's wrong with being the most important? Don't tell me this is being selfish?!
"Of course you are important, but it's wrong to regard yourself as the most important thing, especially when you regard your own life as the most important thing, but don't care about other people's lives." Lu An said calmly, "Any race that lives in groups, whether human or strange beast, has its own rules. Not to mention strange beasts, even ordinary animals are the same. Those who hurt their own race will be isolated and even hunted down. This is the most basic principle of natural life. Unfortunately, you don't understand it until now. "
Listening to Lu An's words and looking at Lu An's black eyes, Liu Ju's hands gradually clenched, and he gritted his teeth and glared at him!
"How old are you? How dare you talk about principles with me?!" Liu Ju immediately roared, "I've lived until now entirely by my own efforts, fighting my way out of a pile of dead people! What about you? You're just a level eight Heavenly Master. You've lived until now because of the protection of others. How many benefits have your bloodline brought you? How many allies have you brought? Someone like you, who has been living in a honey pot since the beginning, actually dares to say things like 'why not eat meat paste'. If I was as kind as you, I would have died long ago! What right do you have to talk about me?! "
"…"
Lu An's eyes moved slightly. Just as he was about to say something, he was interrupted by Liu Ju's words.
"Don't tell me that it's because of your good character that you have so many allies!" Liu Ju sneered and said sarcastically, "If you didn't have the Deep Ice in your body, and if you didn't have any relationship with the young master of the Fu Clan, you can ask who would want to look at someone as weak as you!"
Liu Ju's words were very powerful. Everyone looked at Lu An, and it was the truth. In a sect that stood at the top of the human world, if it wasn't for Lu An having the Deep Ice and his relationship with Fu Yu, no one would treat him like this. There was no possibility of rebuttal.
Liu Yi also looked at Lu An. She was the only one present who understood Lu An, so she was very clear … that this wasn't what Lu An wanted to talk about.
Would he really … say it?
Lu An took a light breath. His dark eyes were still very calm, without any ripples.
"I … am not someone who grew up in a honey pot."
