A blood-soaked Lu Ye returned to the hall, and Xiao Xinghe was relieved. On the other hand, Liu Yuei, who was seated, pressed her hand against the table and got to her feet. As her Spiritual Power surged, the table ca apart.
Qi Wu, who had stayed there the entire ti, felt his eyelids twitching. He couldn’t believe his eyes as he looked at the blood-soaked Lu Ye. At the sa ti, he was terrified.
Initially, he had no regard for Lu Ye as there was a huge gap between their powers. Usually, a brilliant cultivator could kill a stronger cultivator who was one to two Minor Realms above him. However, Qi Wu was three Minor Realms above Lu Ye. He was also soone who could defeat stronger opponents.
As such, he had the confidence to defeat or even kill Lu Ye. He was displeased that Liu Yuei took him away at the most critical mont and let Chen Ke replace him to get into a life-and-death fight with Lu Ye. He felt that the Pass Leader had underestimated him.
In the end, Lu Ye returned after the battle ended, whereas Chen Ke was nowhere to be found. It was apparent that Chen Ke was dead. [How did he achieve that?]
No external forces could penetrate the Deathmatch Platform and reach the pocket dinsion. As such, no one knew what had happened inside. As the outco was right before Qi Wu’s eyes, he was terrified.
Since Lu Ye could kill Chen Ke, he naturally could end Qi Wu’s life as well. After all, Chen Ke was significantly more powerful than Qi Wu.
[Was I accidentally spared the fate of going to Hell?] The thought turned over in Qi Wu’s mind.
anwhile, Lin Yinxiu wasn’t surprised when she saw Lu Ye’s return. She appeared as if she had expected this outco.
When she was a young girl, she would always hear her Mother talk about the legends regarding Feng Wujiang. Many stories stated that, even when his life was hanging by a thread, he could still turn things around and win the battles. There were also incidents where he could kill stronger opponents who were supposedly too powerful to be defeated. As her Mother narrated the tales, regardless of how inconceivable the incident was, it made total sense when it happened to Feng Wujiang.
Her Mother admired Feng Wujiang. Her biggest regret was that she didn’t have a chance to be his subordinate and fight alongside him.
She passed away pretty early on. As Lin Yinxiu grew up with those tales, she was heavily influenced by her Mother.
That was the reason she threw a tantrum and forced Qian Wudang to let her join the Ministry of Laws and beco part of Lu Ye’s team.
She could see the similarities between Lu Ye and Feng Wujiang. It had been a long ti since Feng Wujiang passed away, but Lu Ye was around. Naturally, Lin Yinxiu didn’t want to walk down the sa path as her Mother. When she was old, she didn’t want to regret not having been there to witness Lu Ye’s rise to prominence.
Earlier, she was indeed worried when Lu Ye summoned the Deathmatch Platform. She was even ready to send Qian Wudang a ssage to inform him of what was going on.
But after giving it so thought, she reckoned that if Lu Ye was indeed the second Feng Wujiang, he must have the luck and skills to turn things around in such a situation.
In the end, just like what she had expected, the incident deed inconceivable happened right before their eyes. She was elated, feeling that she had indeed found the second Feng Wujiang.
“Impossible!” Liu Yuei’s expression was as hideous as that of a ghost while she glared at Lu Ye. [How is it possible that he has won the battle? There’s no way Chen Ke was defeated!]
Lu Ye looked like he was badly injured and had suffered a lot. What right did he have to walk out of the Deathmatch Platform alive?
Liu Yuei had done her best to overestimate Lu Ye and even seen through his mind. She reckoned that Qi Wu wouldn’t be a match for Lu Ye, so she cast him away and let Chen Ke replace him at the last second. Much to her surprise, Chen Ke lost his life in the end.
[How is he able to kill a Seventh-Order Real Lake Realm Master?]
Liu Yuei was suddenly terrified. What she had witnessed was beyond her, which showed how horrifyingly powerful Lu Ye was.
He was only a Third-Order Real Lake Realm Master now, but he was already able to kill a Seventh-Order Real Lake Realm Master. When he beca a Third-Order Divine Ocean Realm Master, could he also destroy a Seventh-Order Divine Ocean Realm Master like her?
There were grudges between them in the first place, and she had offended him now. When Lu Ye beca powerful enough, there was no way he would let the woman off.
As many thoughts turned over in Liu Yuei’s mind, her aura also beca dangerous.
Lu Ye was petrified, feeling as if countless needles had been jabbed into his skin. Naturally, he could feel the woman’s unveiled murderous intent, so he quickly said, “Pass Leader Liu, according to the Sacred Pact, Xiao Xinghe belongs to the Ministry of Laws from now on. I’ll take him with .”
[The Ministry of Laws… Yes, this brat is from the Ministry of Laws. If I kill him right now, I’ll be in hot water.]
She could use her power to oppress Xiao Xinghe, telling him to carry out dangerous tasks, hoping that he’d lose his life. However, she was the Pass Leader of Surging Waves Lake Pass, after all. She couldn’t make a move herself.
It also didn’t help that she was in Surging Waves Lake Pass, which was her territory. If soone from the Ministry of Laws lost his life here, Qian Wudang wouldn’t let her off.
She stared fixedly at Lu Ye. It took her a while to suppress her shock and fury before she snorted. “That’s for sure.”
“In that case, we’ll take our leave now.” Lu Ye cupped his fists and walked backwards while facing Liu Yuei. Beside him, Xiao Xinghe and Lin Yinxiu did the sa.
Looking like an eerie ghost, Liu Yuei never moved her eyes away from Lu Ye.
It wasn’t until Lu Ye left the hall that he turned around and summoned his Spirit Boat. Then, he boarded it and shot into the sky. Xiao Xinghe and Lin Yinxiu also rose into the air in their Artifacts. The three of them turned into rays of light and left Surging Waves Lake Pass.
No one paid attention to the three of them, though. After all, the war at Surging Waves Lake Pass was ongoing, so many cultivators were constantly leaving and entering the Pass.
As they were leaving Surging Waves Lake Pass, Lu Ye turned to look at Lin Yinxiu and said, “Tell the Commander that I’ve enlisted Xiao Xinghe of Blue Emperor City from Surging Waves Lake Pass. I’ll return right away.”
Lin Yinxiu gave him a aningful look and nodded obediently. “Yes.”
She didn’t contact Qian Wudang using her military token, though. She tapped on her Battlefield Imprint and sent a ssage.
A worried Xiao Xinghe said, “Junior Brother, we shouldn’t leave Surging Waves Lake Pass so soon. At the very least, we should wait until you’ve recovered.”
Lu Ye replied, “I’m fine… Have you also realised it, Senior Brother?”
Xiao Xinghe said, “That woman isn’t willing to let us go. I could see her burning with murderous intent in the end. However, she can’t make a move since she’s in her territory. Once we leave Surging Waves Lake Pass, she’ll probably kill us. There’s no way we can fend off a Divine Ocean Realm Master like her.”
“Indeed.” Lu Ye nodded.
If Liu Yuei wanted to do so, the three of them couldn’t drive her off. As such, staying in Surging Waves Lake Pass seed to be the best option.
However, Lu Ye wouldn’t dare to do that. Liu Yuei’s murderous intent had been aroused, and the war between Surging Waves Lake Pass and Dark Moon Forest Pass was ongoing. If they stayed there, they might cause so trouble. Therefore, they had to go back imdiately.
Naturally, Lu Ye could also contact Qian Wudang. Enlisting Xiao Xinghe to the Ministry of Laws was only a small matter, so there wasn’t a need to inform Qian Wudang about it. Nevertheless, he still told Lin Yinxiu to do that.
It was because he believed that once Qian Wudang received the ssage, the latter would understand their situation.
Lin Yinxiu was with him, so both of them were in the sa boat.
As such, whether they could survive this ti depended on how important Lin Yinxiu was to Qian Wudang. If she was important enough, Qian Wudang would co to the rescue sooner.
Lu Ye didn’t contact Tang Yi Feng because he was a mber of the Ministry of Laws now, so whatever happened, he was supposed to ask Qian Wudang to stand up for him. There wasn’t a need to inform Tang Yi Feng about it.
Lin Yinxiu understood Lu Ye’s intention, but she never pointed it out. Just like what she had said, she was obedient, so she would do whatever Lu Ye told her to. Contacting Qian Wudang wasn’t a big deal anyway.
Although it had taken them two days to arrive at Surging Waves Lake Pass from Grand Sky City, it would only take a Divine Ocean Realm Master like Qian Wudang two to four hours to arrive if he fully activated his power.
It wasn’t a mission this ti. It was just Lu Ye trying to recruit a mber for his team. Therefore, he didn’t want to ask for Qian Wudang’s help. If he had to trouble his leader for every matter, it would only show how useless he was. There would be tis when Qian Wudang couldn’t save him.
However, Liu Yuei’s gaze in the end made him understand that he had underestimated the woman’s madness. Although she was resentful of the Crimson Blood Sect’s disciples, she wouldn’t brazenly make a move. After all, she had to protect her reputation, considering her identity. Nonetheless, she was going through the pain of losing her child. The only thing that was stopping her from making a move in Surging Waves Lake Pass was her last bit of sanity. It could be said that a woman with little to no sanity left was horrifying.
Lu Ye wasn’t certain if Liu Yuei would race after them, but it would probably happen. As such, he had to take the precaution.
“There isn’t a need to hurry. Take it slow,” Lu Ye said and slowed down his pace. The more slowly they left Surging Waves Lake Pass, the later the danger would co.
Although Liu Yuei had gone mad, she wouldn’t destroy the three of them in Surging Waves Lake Pass.
anwhile, in the hall of the Ministry of Laws in Grand Sky City, Qian Wudang was dealing with work when he suddenly received a ssage from Lin Yinxiu, which puzzled him.
He thought that Lu Ye was pretty efficient as the latter had recruited a mber so soon. However, why would Lu Ye inform him of such a small matter?
Moreover, he should’ve been inford of the matter through the military tokens, but he had received a ssage on his Battlefield Imprint instead. Sothing seed off about it.
“Oh, no!” Qian Wudang ca to his senses and hurriedly rose to his feet.
It was no wonder he found the na Xiao Xinghe of Blue Emperor City familiar. It was as though he had heard of the na before. If it was indeed that person, things didn’t look so optimistic.
[Also, why did that brat Lu Yi Ye go to Surging Waves Lake Pass to recruit a mber? Doesn’t he know that Surging Waves Lake Pass belongs to Heavenly Gate Canyon? Isn’t he aware of who is in charge of that place? He would be a fool if he knew that but still insisted on going there. But if he didn’t know, why would he go to Surging Waves Lake Pass in the first place? That brat…”
Qian Wudang was furious, regretting his decision to let Lu Ye beco a team leader. It had only been days since that happened, but Lu Ye had barged into the lion’s den. What was more, he even brought Lin Yinxiu with him.
It was no wonder he wanted a token from Qian Wudang to freely recruit his mbers. It seed that he had already planned on doing that at that ti. It was laughable that Qian Wudang didn’t probe him further.
“Lu Yi Ye!” Qian Wudang growled. [If anything happens to Yinxiu, I’ll beat you up and skin you alive!]
