The moment she said that, all the girls sucked in a breath of air. Lu An's brows furrowed even tighter and his expression became even more serious.
"That's not all." Beauty Yang looked at Lu An and said softly, "Although I don't understand the reason behind it, I've heard others say that the Fu Clan is one of the top clans in the Hachiko clan. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it's the number one clan. The Fu Clan's power is completely different from what we know as the weakest water attribute. It's the strongest attribute. "
"…"
The girls looked at each other and saw shock and defeat in each other's eyes. Compared to Fu Yu's background, the difference between them was really, really too, far too great.
Sometimes, they thought that they were outstanding enough, but they never thought that they were frogs in a well.
Lu An, on the other hand, remained silent. After a long while, he looked at Beauty Yang and asked, "Then, are there any Level Nine Heavenly Masters in the fifteen sects and sixteen clans? Are there any Level Nine Heavenly Masters in the Hachiko clan? "
Hearing Lu An's question, the five girls, except for Yao, trembled once again. This was also a question that they were very concerned about. Were there really Level Nine Heavenly Masters in this world?
Beauty Yang looked at Lu An and finally nodded lightly and said, "There are all of them."
The moment she said that, even Lu An's body trembled. His eyes were filled with disbelief!
"Master should know that there were thirty-six sects in the past, but now there are fifteen sects and sixteen clans. The most fundamental reason for the changes in the sects is because there are no Level Nine Heavenly Masters." At this point, Beauty Yang smiled bitterly and said, "If there are Level Nine Heavenly Masters, then they are qualified to enter the sects. If there aren't, then they will be kicked out immediately."
Looking at Beauty Yang's appearance, Lu An's heart trembled. He knew that Beauty Yang's clan used to be one of the sects. It seemed that the reason for the clan's downfall was because they lost their Level Nine Heavenly Masters.
"As for the Hachiko clan, they have even more Level Nine Heavenly Masters, and they are even more powerful." Beauty Yang took a light breath and composed herself before continuing, "Although they are all Level Nine Heavenly Masters, the difference between them is like heaven and earth. After all, after reaching that level, it is possible to use any power in the world. "
"In front of the Hachiko clan, the people of the 15 Sects and 16 Clans have no power at all. They can only obey orders. Otherwise, it would be easy for the Hachiko clan to wipe out a sect." Yang Meiren paused and looked at Lu An. "There are also the four empires."
Lu An frowned and asked, "The Four Empires are also related to the Hachiko clan?"
Yang Meiren shook her head and said, "The Hachiko clan doesn't have the time or the willingness to manage the four empires. The four empires actually had a lot to do with the sects. The fifteen sects and sixteen schools were divided into four groups, each corresponding to an empire. Every empire needs to submit tributes to the sect every year, and the corresponding reward is the protection of their safety, and the most outstanding disciples of the four great empires can enter the sect to cultivate. "
Lu An had a serious look in his eyes. He didn't expect the four empires to have such a complicated relationship with the sects. No wonder the four empires could exist for so long. It turned out that the sects were always protecting them.
After saying so much, Yang Meiren finally finished telling him about the Eight Ancient Continents. She took a deep breath, looked at Lu An and asked, "Master … What do you plan to do next?"
As soon as she said this, the other six women also trembled. That's right. Lu An was sure that he couldn't stay in Purple Lake City anymore. Otherwise, he would be assassinated by the Chu and Jiang families. With Lu An's strength, he couldn't resist at all. He could only wait to be slaughtered. Therefore, he had to leave.
However, if he left … What would happen to them?
Lu An's expression was heavy, and his eyes were very serious. He stood up, looked at the women, and said in a low voice, "Let me think about it first. I will inform you when I have made up my mind."
After saying this, Lu An turned around and left the palace without hesitation. Looking at Lu An's back, the women were sad and sorrowful. They knew that after this, Lu An would completely distance himself from them.

From morning till midnight, Lu An didn't attend the banquet. He stayed in his room. He sat on a chair, but he didn't light any candles. He just sat quietly under the moonlight.
In fact, he had been sitting there for a few hours. He frowned, and his eyes were filled with struggle.
Today, Fu Yu's disappointment in him had completely broken him down.
That's right. Fu Yu was the princess of the Fu Clan, the future successor of the strongest force in the world. She had waited for him for four years, and she didn't hesitate to fight against the other two clans for him. Even if he wasn't a member of the Hachiko clan, he knew that she had sacrificed a lot. It was enough to prove that Fu Yu hadn't forgotten about him for four years.
But what about him?
He got to know seven women and brought them to the same place. He even established the so-called Lu Clan of Purple Lake. This series of events sounded extremely absurd and ridiculous.
Not to mention Fu Yu, even he himself was so angry that he almost laughed. How could there be such a stupid person in this world who would do such a stupid thing?
Especially when he had a maid. This was an extremely ambiguous matter in anyone's eyes. Although he knew that nothing had happened, why should others put in the effort to find out the truth and believe you?
But he didn't know what he should do now. If he wanted to live, he had to leave Purple Lake City. But he didn't have enough understanding of the Hachiko clan's power. In addition to his trust in Fu Yu, he didn't think that he would be safe on the mainland. He should leave the mainland and go to the ocean. But what about these women?
With a simple investigation, he would be able to find out the relationship between these women and himself. If the Kang Clan and the Chu Clan couldn't find his whereabouts and captured these women or even killed them, he would definitely blame himself for the rest of his life. But if he took these women with him, wouldn't he be doing something stupid?
For the whole day, he had been thinking about this problem. Was there any way to make these women absolutely safe so that he could go to the ocean with peace of mind?
But no matter how Lu An thought about it, this was a dead-end with no solution. It was not safe on the Eight Ancient Continents. Apart from the Eight Ancient Continents, there was only the ocean. In other words, he had no other choice.
Struggling with his inner thoughts, he sat there. The moon rose little by little. When it reached the highest point, someone knocked on the door.
Lu An, who was thinking, trembled slightly. He turned to look at the door and dispersed his Fate Wheel. Immediately, he knew that it was Beauty Yang.
Frowning, Lu An narrowed his eyes. After thinking for a while, he took a deep breath and said, "Come in."
Beauty Yang pushed the door open and entered. Under the moonlight, she looked even more beautiful. She closed the door, walked to Lu An and knelt down.
"Master," Beauty Yang said gently.
Looking at Beauty Yang kneeling in front of him, Lu An frowned even more. He was struggling in his heart. He even clenched his fists tightly and his arms were shaking.
In the end, Lu An did not ask Beauty Yang to get up. Instead, he asked coldly, "What's the matter?"
Seeing that Lu An did not ask her to get up, Beauty Yang felt relieved. Her eyes even reddened. She looked up at Lu An and asked, "I want to know what you plan to do next."
Lu An frowned. He looked at Beauty Yang seriously and said, "I don't want to die. So, I will leave this place."
Beauty Yang looked at Lu An and listened to Lu An's answer. But she did not say anything.
Lu An paused and said, "I don't know what you should do."
"…"
Beauty Yang looked at Lu An with sadness in her eyes. But she still took a deep breath and said softly, "Master, I'm here to tell you … the other women's decision."
Lu An trembled when he heard this, and he asked, "What decision?"
"Liu Yi and Liu Lan are going to the Black Wolf City." Beauty Yang said softly, "Shuang 'er and her mother are going to return to Qing Bei City. Kong Yan is going to travel around and Yao is going to return to Sengoku."
"…"
Lu An was shocked again. He did not expect that these women would make such a decision!
"But what about their safety?" Lu An quickly asked. "If the Chu and Kang Clan find them, they won't be able to live!"
"They don't think that such a high and mighty clan would do anything to them. Otherwise, it would be a very shameful act." Beauty Yang paused and said softly, "Moreover, even if they do do something to them, they will accept it. This is their fate."
"…"
Lu An was dumbfounded. He didn't even know what to say or do. But he felt a sharp pain in his heart. He knew that when he let down Fu Yu, he also let down all the women.
"What about you?" Lu An finally opened his mouth. He looked at Beauty Yang and asked, "What about you and Yang Mu?"
"I …" Beauty Yang looked into Lu An's eyes. She bit her lips and said, "She and I will stay in Purple Lake City."
