After the Thousand Dust Star came to a stop, the people in the vast universe looked towards each other.
Fu Clan Heavenly Kings, Lu Clan Heavenly Kings. Both sides had a total of 16 people.
That's right, there were actually 16 Heavenly Kings hidden in the planet just now. But the numbers of both sides were not the same. The actual numbers were 9 from the Fu Clan, 7 from the Lu Clan!
The Fu Clan actually sent 9 people?!
Amongst the 7 from the Lu Clan, the leader was naturally the strongest. His status in the Lu Clan was second only to the clan leader. For him to personally come here, it showed how important this matter was. His name was Lu Chu Chen.
Actually, he wasn't supposed to be part of this operation, but he was worried that the Fu Clan would set up an ambush. With him around, it would be safer. Lu Chu Chen looked at the 9 Fu Clan Heavenly Kings from afar. His expression was solemn, but he wasn't nervous.
Even though there was a difference in numbers, Lu Chu Chen wasn't worried. This was because the difference in strength between the Heavenly Kings was too great. Perhaps to a Heaven Realm expert, the difference in strength between the Heaven Realm experts was already too great. In reality, it couldn't even be compared to a Heavenly King. The difference in strength between a Heavenly King was like the difference in strength between the stars in the vast universe. Some stars were so small that they didn't even deserve to be attached to them. Even some of the bigger stars didn't deserve to be attached to them. The biggest stars were millions, millions of times bigger than the smallest stars, or even bigger. Hence, in the Heavenly King realm, numbers didn't mean anything. The most important thing was still strength.
The 9 members of the Fu Clan were led by Fu Lie. As for Fu Lie, his strength and status in the Fu Clan was second only to the clan leader, Fu Yang!
The leaders of both sides were extremely important in their respective clans. This was enough to show how important this operation was to both clans. Of course, the difference in numbers wasn't obvious. The Lu Clan had fewer Heavenly Kings than the Fu Clan. It could only be said that the Lu Clan didn't send out more Heavenly Kings.
The 9 members of the Fu Clan also understood that numbers didn't mean everything. Hence, their expressions were equally solemn.
The 20 Heaven Realm experts they just met was the first time the Fu Clan met the Lu Clan. This was the first time the Fu Clan had seen a Heavenly King from the Lu Clan. The entire Hachiko clan did not find any traces of the Lu family, but this public meeting was the first time the Fu Clan had witnessed the power of the Lu family.
To be able to send out seven people, the strength of this clan could be imagined.
They were at least half the size of the Thousand Dust Star, and even at such a terrifying distance, the two sides could still fight at any moment. However, neither side had made a move yet.
Both sides had the same plan. If the other side really had a Heavenly King expert, then they would have to look at the numbers before making a decision. If the other party only sent out one or two Heavenly King Stage experts, they would immediately attack without holding back and try their best to kill the enemy's Heavenly King Stage experts. On the other hand, if the number of Heavenly King Realm experts on the enemy's side was more than half of their own, or even almost equal, then it would be best not to fight this battle.
A battle between Heavenly King Realm experts was too unpredictable. No one had absolute confidence, and no one had the ability to guarantee victory.
It was precisely because both sides had the same plan that the situation was in a stalemate. No one made a move. After a short moment of silence, Fu Lie spoke first.
"You are all from the Lu Clan?" Fu Lie asked solemnly.
Fu Lie's voice was extremely loud. Even though they were half the size of the Thousand Dust Star, his voice quickly travelled into the ears of the seven Lu Clan members. It was extremely loud, as though a massive force had swept past them!
What powerful strength!
Fu Lie's words were equivalent to revealing a little of his strength. Even though it wasn't his full strength, it was enough to cause the seven Lu Clan members to feel a heavy pressure in their hearts.
Lu Chu Chen's expression turned even more solemn as he replied.
"As expected of the Fu Clan." Lu Chu Chen said. "We are all from the Lu Clan, I presume you are all from the Fu Clan?"
Lu Chu Chen's voice instantly swept across the vast universe, directly attacking the nine Lu Clan members. When the nine Lu Clan members heard Lu Chu Chen's voice, at least five of them felt their hearts tremble!
What powerful strength!
Fu Lie's expression turned even more solemn. But from the sound of his voice, his opponent's strength was not any weaker than his own!
As expected of a hidden clan within the Spirit Race, they were truly powerful!
"As you say," Fu Lie said in a deep voice. "As a hidden clan within the Spirit Race, you actually sent out so many people just to kill a mere Heaven Tier cultivator. Isn't this a bit too much of a fanfare?"
"Isn't the Fu Clan the same?" Lu Chu Chen said. "You sent even more people than we did."
"This is because we care for him." Fu Lie smiled, but his smile was very cold. "Lu An is Young Master's husband, so we naturally have the responsibility to protect him. What about you? Could it be that the Lu Clan actually hates Lu An so much? "
"..."
Lu Chu Chen's brows furrowed even more. He looked at the nine people in the distance, and his voice was clearly not as natural as before. "We only want Lu An's life. As long as the Fu Clan releases him, you can name any conditions you want."
"Hm?" Fu Lie raised an eyebrow and said, "You want to make a deal with me?"
"We each take what we need, why not?" Lu Chu Chen said.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Fu Lie shook his head and sighed. "As expected of a hidden clan, you even dare to do such a thing. However, I don't dare. I still have the God of Heaven Mountain above me. If the God of Heaven Mountain finds out that I made a deal with the Spirit Race, I won't be able to bear the consequences. "
"The deal is here, not on the Immortal Planet. As long as we don't say anything, there's no need to worry." Lu Chu Chen said. "I'll name a condition. As long as you are willing to hand Lu An over to me, I can return all the captives of the Hachiko clan."
Captives?
Indeed, there were not only casualties on the battlefield. There were many whose bones could not be found and could only be considered missing. However, they still had to be dealt with as if they were dead. Just like how the Hachiko clan had many captives of the Spirit Race, the Spirit Race must also have many captives of the Hachiko clan.
Fu Lie frowned and asked, "Your Lu Clan is a hidden clan. I don't even know if you have participated in any battles. Who knows how many captives you have in your hands, or if you have none?"
"You've misunderstood my meaning." Lu Chu Chen said solemnly. "I'm talking about all the captives of the Hachiko clan in the hands of the Spirit Race, not my Lu Clan!"
"Hiss!!!"
The moment these words were spoken, the nine members of the Fu Clan took a deep breath and looked at each other. They were all shocked!
The entire Spirit Race?!
The Lu Clan could actually speak on behalf of the entire Spirit Race?!
Even Fu Lie's expression froze. His eyes revealed a look of disbelief! Even the Fu Clan could not demand the release of all the captives from the other seven clans. This Lu Clan actually dared to say such words. Fu Lie did not think that the other party was lying.
From the looks of it, the Lu Clan's status in the Spirit Race was extremely high. It was even higher than the Fu Clan's status in the Hachiko clan. There was a huge gap in strength between them and the other clans!
"What do you think?" Seeing that the other party did not speak, Lu Chu Chen spoke again. "Although I don't know exactly how many Hachiko clan captives there are, after nearly a thousand years of open and covert fighting between the two galaxies, there should be at least a few dozen captives, maybe even a hundred, right? One Lu An in exchange for the lives of a hundred Celestial Realm warriors from the Hachiko clan. No matter how you look at it, this is a very good deal. The impact of one Lu An's strength on the battlefield cannot be compared to a hundred Celestial Realm warriors. "
"..."
Fu Lie looked at the enemy in the distance and said, "If that's the case, why do you want to make this deal?"
"Because the Lu Clan needs to clean house," Lu Chu Chen said. "The Lu Clan has never had a traitor before. Lu An is the first. He is the first humiliation that will be carved into the history of the Lu Clan. Because of this, we need to get rid of him, and we need to get rid of him as soon as possible. Otherwise, the longer this drags on, the greater the humiliation. "
Hearing Lu Chu Chen's explanation, Fu Lie frowned even more. This reason was not small. The first traitor in history. If this was true, the Lu Clan did have a reason to get rid of Lu An as soon as possible. However... no one was a fool. Even if this was indeed a reason, it was definitely not the only reason. It was very likely that it was not even the main reason.
"To be able to make the Lu Clan feel humiliated, I am still very happy to see it." Fu Lie suddenly laughed and said, "After all, I am very willing to do something that can make the enemy unhappy."
Hearing that the other party did not care at all, and even mocked him, Lu Chu Chen immediately clenched his fists and shouted in a deep voice, "Including your captives?"
"It's not abandonment. This is the reality." Fu Lie said, "Any warrior can be captured, including me. We have to be prepared to be captured at any time. If we don't have this awareness, we don't deserve to be a member of the Hachiko clan. "
