Chapter 396: Chapter 292: Time to Seek Out Old Acquaintances and Settle Old Debts! (Part 2)
This Mr. Lu is indeed asking me to leave.
No matter, as long as I have received Mr. Lu’s approval, I can report back to the ancestors.
Mo Wen Dao thought to himself, a hint of relief appearing on his face.
However, from now on, our Mo Family must completely stand with the Great Xia royal family.
No one is a fool; if today’s plan is leaked, those families and the forces like the Sword Spirit Sect will surely deduce that it was the Mo Family who let the secret slip.
Lu Xuan heard this and gave a faint smile, his tone carrying a hint of dismissal: "Mr. Mo, since that’s the case, this Director won’t detain you any longer."
Mo Wen Dao hurriedly bowed and saluted, his tone respectful: "Mr. Lu, I take my leave!"
After speaking, Mo Wen Dao’s figure flickered, transforming into a stream of light, quickly disappearing into the sky.
Lu Xuan withdrew his gaze, turning his attention to the sacrificial instruments and bags within the Void Realm, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.
"This isn’t the place to refine these things."
Lu Xuan wasn’t in a hurry to refine these things on the spot; who knows if those old monsters targeting him might show up here.
After all, he had eradicated the Sun Spirits of these forces.
"Very well!"
"Besides, this Director still has to go to the Western Extreme Land to meet an old acquaintance."
When he uttered the words "old acquaintance," Lu Xuan emphasized his tone.
This old acquaintance!
Lu Xuan had several unsettled scores with it!
"Nether Serpent!"
"This Director wants to see if this time you still have the power of the Pocket World master."
"If not..."
"Hmph!"
In less than half a day after Lu Xuan left, the once clear sky suddenly underwent a cataclysmic change.
Thick, bottomless white clouds surged wildly, rolling forward like a raging sea.
In the center of the sky, seven massive shadows gradually emerged, concealed within the boundless clouds,
as if they were the rulers of the heavens and earth, overlooking the world beneath them.
"Who did this!" A deep, anger-filled voice emanated from the clouds, causing the heavens and earth to tremble.
"Dead!"
"Tang Yun is dead!"
Another voice arose, laced with shock and fury.
"How is it possible that you all..."
"Our Sword Spirit Sect’s people are dead too!" yet another voice sounded, full of disbelief.
The seven colossal shadows spanning heaven and earth exchanged looks, all showing a trace of gravity and wariness in their eyes.
The death of the Sun Spirits had clearly alerted these old monsters.
They knew that an entity capable of easily eliminating a Sun Spirit was no ordinary being.
"The Void Realm True Lord has made a move!" an aged, hoarse voice emerged, carrying a hint of indifference.
"Otherwise, a Sun Spirit with its soul entrusting on a ten-pattern Sun Device couldn’t possibly be killed forcibly."
"Mo Chen, you damn old ghost, how dare you betray us!" Among the seven shadows, one suddenly roared with rage that echoed across the sky, filled with anger and murderous intent.
Evidently, these old monsters had detected the possible involvement of the Mo Family’s Mo Chen in this affair.
Because that damn old fiend hadn’t appeared here.
They suspected Mo Chen had secretly collaborated with the mysterious Void Realm True Lord, betraying their Sun Spirits.
Was it someone from the Great Xia royal family?
Or was it someone else?
Or perhaps it was that damn old bastard Li Xiansheng!
It couldn’t possibly be Lu Xuan, that monstrous younger generation!
The aura of the seven shadows within the clouds suddenly turned violent, as if an earth-shattering battle could break out at any moment.
However, they did not recklessly make a move, instead exchanging looks among themselves.
"This matter can absolutely not end here!"
An icy voice rang out, filled with determination.
"It seems the Mo Family and that old guy Mo Chen have turned to the Great Xia royal family’s side."
"Very well!"
"Perfectly well!"
"Mo, you betrayal against us, from this day forward, our Extreme Flame Saint Sect shall not rest until one side is annihilated!"
Yet another voice arose, full of murderous intent.
The seven shadows within the clouds conspired in low voices, clearly plotting something.
Western Region, Fuzhou Wansheng Prefecture!
Above the sky, an old man with neatly combed silver hair was hovering in mid-air.
Suspended above his head were two smooth and lustrous mirrors.
The mirrors’ edges were tightly aligned, one red, one dark, one large, one small, resembling heaven, earth, sun, and moon.
Constantly radiating crimson and dark blue brilliance, the mirrors intertwined and fused, emanating a mysterious and powerful aura.
This old man was the Director of the Observatory, Lv Ze.
At this moment, Lv Ze’s expression was fluctuating, his eyes shining brightly like stars.
He continuously channeled pure power of heaven and earth from his hands into the Heaven, Earth, Sun, and Moon Mirror without pause.
Attempting to use this mirror to peek into this world’s secrets.
Of course, Lv Ze wasn’t alone.
Beside him stood a woman in a shimmering purple gown.
Her eyes gazed down at the earth below with a stern expression, exuding an aura of intimidating pressure.
The Director of the Observatory, Zi Yao!
In the next moment, Lv Ze suddenly spoke with a hint of gravity: "Mr. Zi, according to the position indicated by the Heaven, Earth, Sun, and Moon Mirror."
"That Nether Serpent seems to have taken human form, making it impossible to pinpoint its location."
Lv Ze paused, continuing: "The only thing I’m sure of is that the Nether Serpent is somewhere within the Wansheng Prefecture."
Zi Yao heard this, her brows furrowed slightly, her voice icy: "Taken on human form?"
"That Nether Serpent is indeed cunning. However, since it is in the Wansheng Prefecture, it proves it cannot hold itself back anymore."
"His Majesty was right; this Nether Serpent has discovered that secret!"
"However, taking this secret out won’t be that easy for the Nether Serpent."
This secret pertains to why the Nether Serpent can enter and leave the Great Xia Dynasty freely.
The power of origin from the Spirit Ruins intermingles with the world of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Therefore, any beast with the power of origin from the Spirit Ruins won’t be affected by the Heaven and Earth Restriction left by the Sacred Ancestor.
As Zi Yao thought about the Nether Serpent, her expression suddenly paused.
Then, a lightness crossed her eyes.
It seemed that the person she was hoping for had arrived in the Western Land.
Besides Lu Xuan, who else could it be!
"Lu Xuan, this guy, really is a once-in-a-lifetime martial prodigy," Zi Yao murmured softly.
As it’s said, seeing someone after three days feels like three autumns!
For Lu Xuan, it wasn’t merely three autumns.
One should say seeing after three days feels like thirty, three hundred, or even three thousand years!
Zi Yao had heard about Lu Xuan’s breakthrough to the Void Realm True Lord.
Void Realm True Lord!
Lu Xuan breaking through to the Void Realm True Lord is truly astonishing.
Zi Yao thought to herself, a complex expression flashing in her eyes.
Lu Xuan, at such a young age, had already stepped into the legendary Void Realm.
Even Zi Yao had to be impressed, and even felt a sense of inferiority, questioning her own life choices.
Despite her youthful beauty now.
In fact, reaching the status of a Void Realm True Lord had taken her nearly five hundred years.
Even she must admit now.
Lu Xuan’s existence could change the dynamics of the Great Xia Dynasty.
"Mr. Lv, someone is waiting for us,"
Zi Yao said, then flickered, transforming into a purple stream of light as she swiftly flew toward the direction of the Wansheng Prefecture.
Watching Zi Yao’s departing figure, Lv Ze’s eyes flashed with a hint of doubt.
Who had come?
Could it be that His Majesty sent a Martial Artist as powerful as this Mr. Zi to support them?
Although confused, Lv Ze dared not delay and quickly put away the Heaven, Earth, Sun, and Moon Mirror, hastily following Zi Yao toward the Wansheng Prefecture.
