Ye Wei and the three elders hurriedly turned around to face the newcomer before they said respectfully in unison, “Welcome, Pavilion Master Lu.”

Although Yannan’s disciples were confused, now that Ye Zheng had died, they naturally obeyed the elders. They followed suit and bowed as well.

The people from the Tuoba clan were dumbfounded. When did a Pavilion Master Lu appear in the green lotus domain? Moreover, there were very few people whom the four elders were so respectful to. Even if the members of the royal family came, Ye Wei and the others might not even be this respectful.

Lu Zhou hovered in the air with his hands on his back and he briefly scanned the crowd on the left and right. He was not in a rush to descend.

The arrays of formation here were strange. They did not seem like ordinary formations.

The array formation here was abnormally strange. It did not seem like an ordinary array formation.

The barriers of the major forces in the golden lotus domain, the divine capital’s Ten Grand Formations, the Dao inscriptions on the royal palace’s wall in the red lotus domain, the Star Gathering Formation, the Black Tower Council’s 3,000 restrictive formations, and the White Tower Council’s 30,000 Dao inscriptions proved the formidable power of formations.

Even if their Venerable Master was dead, how could these people who were the closest to the Venerable Master be without means? Moreover, their Venerable Master must have also helped set up the defenses before he died.

Lu Zhou looked down at Ye Wei and said, “Ye Wei, I haven’t seen you for a while, and you look quite haggard.”

“...”

Yannan’s disciples began to whisper among themselves, sounding like buzzing flies.

The people of the Tuoba clan were whispering in low voices as well. Based on Lu Zhou’s manner of speech, attitude, and aura, it was clear he was someone with high status. Hence, they did not dare to interject. How could someone who made Ye Wei bow and scrape be ordinary? They thought Yannan must have sought outside help after receiving news that they had invited Qin Renyue over.

In the end, Ye Wei said, “Thank you for your concern, Pavilion Master Lu. Fortunately, I’m still able to deal with things here.”

Lu Zhou nodded before he bluntly asked, “Where’s Ye Zheng’s head?”

These words were like a pebble stirring up waves on a calm lake.

Yannan’s disciples broke into an uproar immediately.

On the other hand, the people from the Tuoba clan were inwardly delighted. It was rather satisfying to see Ye Wei trying to curry favor but was met with a cold reception.

Nevertheless, Ye Wei did not pay attention to the people in his surroundings. Instead, he said expressionlessly, “Ye Zheng broke Yannan’s rules. He brought our disciples and the 36 Big Dipper formation flags to take down the Fire Phoenix without permission. As a result, he caused the death of the 36 flag bearers. Ye Zheng was blinded by hatred and used the Great Void Pills to bribe Tuoba Sicheng into working with him to plunder the treasures at the Pillar of Destruction. This time, not only did he cause the deaths of more Yannan disciples, but he also caused the deaths of Tuoba clansmen.”

Ye Wei paused to take a breath before he continued to say, “Ye Zheng was too stubborn and had committed an unforgivable mistake. As the Grand Elder of Yannan, I have to exact justice for our ancestor, the 56 departed disciples, and the entire Yannan!”

Then, Ye Wei turned around and said, “Bring Ye Zheng’s head here!”

“...”

Ye Wei’s final words were imbued with his energy. The soundwave rolled out, causing everyone’s eardrums to hurt.

Lu Zhou did not expect Ye Wei to say such righteous words. Nevertheless, it did not matter.

Similarly, the Yannan disciples and the people from the Tuoba clan were thoroughly shocked by Ye Wei’s words.

At this time, a disciple carried a tray over. A piece of cloth covered the bulging content on the tray. He walked with small and careful steps as sweat dripped down his face and chills ran up his spine. He did his best to remain strong as he walked forward. Then, he kneeled on the ground and presented the tray with two hands over his head.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on the tray.

Ye Wei turned back to face Lu Zhou and cupped his fists together. Then, he lifted the cloth on the tray.

Swoosh!

A dried-up head lay on the tray. Its eyes were still wide open.

“Venerable Master Ye!”

The people of the Tuoba clan instinctively took a step back. They found this scene hard to accept.

Meanwhile, the Yannan disciples kneeled and lowered their heads.

“Pavilion Master Lu?” Ye Wei called out tentatively.

Lu Zhou did not say anything and only waved his hand.

Ye Wei covered the head with the cloth and waved his hand as well.

The disciple quietly brought the tray away.

At the same time, the people of the Tuoba clan still found it hard to believe that Ye Zheng was dead. After all, this meant that their Venerable Master was likely dead as well.

Suddenly, the green-clad elder from the Tuoba clan cursed angrily, “Ye Wei, how can you speak such grand words after killing Venerable Master Ye and causing the death of Venerable Master Tuoba? You’re really shameless.”

Ye Wei said frostily, “Tuoba Hong, ever since you’ve arrived, I’ve been very tolerant. However, it’s not because I’m afraid of you. I’m only doing it for Venerable Master Tuoba’s sake. After all, the dead should be shown respect. However, if you continue making a fuss, don’t blame me for turning on you.”

Tuoba Hong said angrily, “You think I’m afraid of you turning on me? Ye Zheng is dead, and the 36 bearers are dead! What gives you the confidence to act in this manner?!”

Ye Wei frowned.

Tuoba Hong continued to say, “When Venerable Master Qin arrives, I’ll definitely wash Yannan with blood!”

With this, the men and women standing behind Tuoba Hong all said in unison, “Wash Yannan with blood!”

On the contrary, Yannan disciples instinctively retreated.

Since time immemorial, there was no lack of people who liked kicking others when they were down. It was like that then, and it was like that now.

The deaths of Ye Zheng and the 36 flag bearers of the 36 Big Dipper Flag Formation had forcefully demoted Yannan from a first-rate force to a third-rate force. No, perhaps, it was even worse than a third-rate force now.

Lu Zhou looked at Tuoba Hong and asked, “You want to wash Yannan with blood?”

Tuoba Hong raised his head to look at Lu Zhou. He cupped his fists together at Lu Zhou and said, “Every injustice has to be corrected, and every debt has a debtor. I hope you won’t intervene in this matter.”

“I’m afraid that won’t do.” Lu Zhou shook his head.

Tuoba Hong frowned. “What do you mean?”

At this time, Zhao Yu hurriedly interjected, “Tuoba Hong, hurry up and apologize to the old sir!”

“Apologize?” Tuoba Hong was filled with incredulity.

The people of the Tuoba clan were confused.

At this moment, someone called out, “That’s Young Master Zhao!”

Zhao Yu did not beat around the bush as he said, “Venerable Master Tuoba ambushed the old sir and was executed by the old sir!”

“...”

This was even more shocking to the Tuoba clan than Ye Zheng’s decapitated head. All of them looked as though they had been struck by lightning. Zhao Yu’s careless words were no different from dropping a bomb on them.

Tuoba Hong furrowed his brows slightly. As though he did not hear Zhao Yu’s words, he asked, “What did you just say, Young Master Zhao?”

“I said Venerable Master Tuoba has been executed by the old sir.”

The air seemed to freeze over at this time as silence descended immediately.

The minds of Tuoba Hong and the people behind him went blank. They looked at Lu Zhou and the people standing behind him in a daze. They sized up Lu Zhou, the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion, and even their mounts, Whitzard and Qiong Qi. The people in front of them exuded confidence and had extraordinary bearings.

Finally, Lu Zhou took the lead and descended from the sky.

Ye Wei hurriedly ordered someone to bring a chair over for Lu Zhou. Moreover, the chair he had ordered the disciple to bring was the extremely precious 10,000-year-old mahogany chair that Ye Zheng’s used to sit on.

After Lu Zhou took his seat, the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion stood neatly behind him.

Tuoba Hong gulped. Then, he turned around slightly and said in a low voice, “Don’t act rashly. If anyone dares to make a move without my permission, I will punish them severely.”

Tuoba Hong knew that If the old man in front of him truly killed Tuoba Sicheng, it meant that no one present was a match for him. Ye Wei’s attitude toward the old man spoke for itself; Zhao Yu had no reason to lie. It was likely the old man really killed Tuoba Sicheng. If he was blinded by hatred and acted rashly now, he would drag everyone from the Tuoba clan to their deaths. At the very least, he had to wait until Qin Renyue arrived. At that time, he would ask Qin Renyue to seek justice for them.

At this moment, Lu Zhou said, “To be precise, Tuoba Sicheng was defeated by Lord Zhennan and Tian Wu before he died tragically.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yu hastily said, “Yes, yes, yes, it was Lord Zhennan and Tian Wu who killed Venerable Master Tuoba!”

Zhao Yu did not understand Lu Zhou’s thoughts at all. Lu Zhou clearly came to take control of the situation. With Lu Zhou’s thunderous strength, there was nothing wrong with him taking credit for Tuoba Sicheng’s death.. That way, Lu Zhou would be able to intimidate everyone. Why did Lu Zhou deny it?
