Chapter 1023: It’s Very Fair

How big was the gap between their strength?

Yelu Chunan looked at Lu Zhou in a daze and in disbelief. At this point, he realized he had mistaken Lu Zhou for someone else. He felt rather awkward. However, he was rather unresigned that his swordsmanship was criticized as poor.

After a moment, Yelu Chunan wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth and endured the pain as he forced a smile on his face and asked, “You are?”

Zhe Bieli said sternly, “Yelu Chunan, you bast*rd! Hurry up and kowtow to Senior Lu to apologize for your mistake!”

Yelu Chunan. “? ? ?”

Yelu Chunan was baffled. He just misidentified someone; did it warrant such a big reaction? He even had to kowtow and apologize?

Just as Yelu Chunan was about to lose his temper, Zhe Bieli said, “This is Senior Lu, the Pavilion Master of the Evil Sky Pavilion!”

As he spoke, Zhe Bieli winked at Yelu Chunan at a rate of ten times per second.

Fortunately, Yelu Chunan did not ask Zhe Bieli if something was wrong with his eye like those retarded supporting actors in the movies. Instead, he understood Zhe Bieli’s meaning immediately. He immediately kneeled on one knee and said, “Senior Lu, I apologize for the misunderstanding. I thought you were Zhe Bieli. I mistook you for someone else, and that’s my fault.”

Lu Zhou looked at Yelu Chunan and said, “You’re lucky you mistook me for someone else. If it were some else, wouldn’t they have died because of your mistake?”

“This…” Yelu Chunan continued to say, “I’m willing to apologize.”

“How are you going to apologize?” Lu Zhou asked.

“…”

Zhe Bieli quickly said, “Senior Lu, it’s just a misunderstanding. Although Yelu Chunan was wrong, he doesn’t deserve death.”

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded. “I’m not unreasonable. However, he should still be punished. I’ll confiscate your Seven Star Sword.”

“…”

Yelu Chunan rose to his feet instinctively as his eyes widened in shock. To a swordsman, a sword was his life. How could he be willing to have his sword taken away? His stance, at this moment, seemed like he was going to protest.

Shen Xi stepped forward and glared at Yelu Chunan before he said sternly, “What do you want to do?”

Yelu Chunan’s anger vanished immediately. Although he felt aggrieved, he did not dare to protest.

Zhe Bieli moved to Yelu Chunan’s side before he turned to Lu Zhou and said, “The Seven Star Sword should be taken away. I’ll respectfully send Senior Lu off now…”

“The Seven Star Sword isn’t enough,” Lu Zhou said indifferently.

“Ah?” Zhe Bieli’s heart sank again for the umpteenth time today.

Lu Zhou said, “You said it yourself. Fan Ruozhi, the Alliance Leader of the Dark and Light Alliance received more than ten letters of challenge from Yelu Chunan. For that reason, Alliance Master Fan accepted the challenge and isn’t in the alliance. However, Yelu Chunan suddenly made an appearance here… How do you explain this?”

“…” Zhe Bieli’s face was ashen.

Shen Xi smiled and added, “You’re bold to deceive Senior Lu. It’s best if you invite the Alliance Master here…”

Needless to say, since Yelu Chunan was here, Fan Ruozhi was here as well.

Zhe Bieli said, “Senior Lu, please listen to my explanation! The Alliance Leader is really not around! I swear!”

Lu Zhou ignored Zhe Bieli’s plea. “You’ve lost all credibility with me…”

Zhe Bieli dragged Yelu Chunan to his feet.

Yelu Chunan understood Zhe Bieli’s intention and hurriedly explained, “Senior, it’s true that the Alliance Leader isn’t in…”

Lu Zhou said, “Your cultivation is far from that of a sword path expert. What gives you the courage to appear here? Don’t be in a hurry to answer. If you continue to lie, even if the Alliance Leader is here, I won’t spare you.”

In the end, Zhe Bieli could only answer honestly, “Brother Yelu didn’t challenge the Alliance Leader. The truth is he had joined the Dark and Light Alliance and became one of the tigers of the alliance. However, he’s not in the alliance most of the time and is usually out carrying out missions. He only has six Birth Charts, how would he dare to act presumptuously in front of Senior Lu?” As he spoke, he kept glaring at Yelu Chunan for his untimely appearance. Yelu Chunan was not around most of the time, but he picked such a time to appear! How vexing!

Yelu Chunan felt incredibly aggrieved. He met with such misfortune as soon as he arrived.

Lu Zhou did not say anything. If they were going to lie, they should have made preparations and would not make such a low-level mistake. He asked, “So you’re here to challenge Zhe Bieli?”

Yelu Chunan’s gaze shifted from Zhe Bieli to Lu Zhou. He nodded and said with a sigh, “It’s a spur of the moment thing. I’ve only met Zhe Bieli once. I didn’t expect such a misunderstanding to happen. Please be magnanimous and forgive me, Senior Lu.”

Yu Zhenghai smiled and said, “Although your swordsmanship is indeed a little bad, your strength and aura are strong. It’s enough to frighten ordinary cultivators out of their wits. However, if you encounter my Second Senior Brother, I’m afraid only death awaits you.”

“…”

Upon hearing these words, Yelu Chunan’s face flushed red from embarrassment. He said, “I know I’m lacking. I returned to the Dark and Light Alliance because I heard a large number of flying beasts would appear in the evening on the fifteenth of every month… ”

“Flying beasts?” Lu Zhou raised his head and looked at the clear sky.

The sky was clear for miles. There was no sign of anything in the western horizon where the sun was about to set.

Zhe Bieli smiled and said, “This is also a common occurrence in the red lotus domain. Every evening, flying beasts would appear and terrorize human cities. Humans use formations to take them down and will sell their life hearts to those who are interested. These things aren’t worth much…”

Yu Zhenghai nodded when he heard this. This aligned with his experience when he first arrived in the red lotus domain.

“It’s getting late. If Senior Lu isn’t in a hurry, why don’t you stay a night?” Zhe Bieli said. Despite his words, he was actually reminding Lu Zhou to leave.

After some time, Lu Zhou said tonelessly, “You attempted to assassinate me. However, I’m not an unreasonable person. Give me another five portions of obsidian essences, and we’ll call it a day.”

Zhe Bieli and Yelu Chunan. “…”

Zhe Bieli and Yelu Chunan thought they managed to avoid trouble. Who knew the old fox was waiting for them to jump into the hole he had dug?

Zhe Bieli said, “Senior Lu, fifteen portions of obsidian essence is already the limit. If you ask for more, I’ll have to give away all of the Dark and Light Alliance’s assets… This…”

Zhe Bieli suddenly stopped speaking. He really wanted to slap his mouth. Why did he say assets? Was this not admitting that he had these things? He raised his hand in a daze and slapped his face.

“If you think it’s unfair, then kill 352 of your members, including Yelu Chunan,” Lu Zhou said indifferently.

Zhe Bieli’s expression turned unsightly. No, it was beyond unsightly. He struggled and hesitated for a long time.

Finally, Shen Xi looked at the sky and said, “It’s getting late, Pavilion Master.”

‘Let’s see who’s more anxious…’

Lu Zhou said, “There’s no rush. I’m sure the Dark and Light Alliance won’t refuse me if I plan to stay a night.”

“No… No… Will…” Zhe Bieli was incoherent.

“Then, think about it. Do you want to keep the lives of 352 people or the obsidian essences…” Lu Zhou said.

Yelu Chunan said in a deep voice, “Fine. I agree on behalf of the Alliance Leader…”

Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow. “You can make the decision?”

“Of course.”

“Zhe Bieli said the same thing earlier. Although both of you can make the decision, it seems like your opinions differ. I don’t know who to believe.”

Yelu Chunan said, “Men, bring the obsidian essences from the warehouse.”

“Yelu Chunan!” Zhe Bieli said through gritted teeth.

Yelu Chunan was fuming as well. When he thought about his lost Seven Star Sword, he steeled his heart and said, “I’ll explain this to the Alliance Leader. Go and get it.”

Zhe Bieli stopped protesting. He knew Yelu Chunan’s temper was childish. Since Yelu Chunan had lost the Seven Star Sword, he knew Yelu Chunan was giving away the obsidian essences out of anger.

After a while, a few men brought a box over.

The box was made from rosewood. Intricate patterns were carved on it, and it emitted a fragrant smell. It was clear that this thing had been carefully guarded.

Zhe Bieli reluctantly handed it over.

Lu Zhou took it.

“Ding! Obtained obsidian essence x15.”

Lu Zhou nodded his head in satisfaction. He looked at Zhe Bieli and said, “You seem unwilling?”

“No, no.”

“You don’t think it’s fair?”

“It’s fair, very fair…” Zhe Bieli lowered his head.

“Remember to live well. That’s the number one rule in the cultivation world,” Lu Zhou said.

What Lu Zhou meant was Zhe Bieli should be thankful enough that he did not kill him.

Zhe Bieli bowed. “Thank you for your advice, senior.”

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

At this moment, a few flying beasts appeared in the air above the Dark and Light Alliance.

Everyone looked at the sky.

“Pavilion Master, it’s time for us to leave! As for the other things, your subordinate will collect them tomorrow,” Shen Xi said.

At this time, a voice rang from a sentry tower in the Dark and Light Alliance.

“Activate the formation.”

Many members of the Dark and Light Alliance rose into the sky immediately.

At this time, Zhe Bieli quickly said, “This junior will open a path for Senior Lu. After all, this is a daily task of the Dark and Light Alliance.”
