Wandao Sect, Taiyi Peak.
When Xue Shaohai stepped into the main entrance of Taiyi Hall, he suddenly ca to his senses and quickly distanced himself, his gaze shocked as he looked at Lu Yunzhu, whose expression was as calm as ever, and who kept walking.
With my dignified Late Divine Presence Realm... to be so simply controlled by a single word to lead the way?
"You..."
Xue Shaohai's spiritual power surged around him, but Zheng Dongliu's voice made him suppress the fear in his heart and silently walk out.
"Shaohai, this is a guest. You can leave for now."
Lu Yunzhu made her way through the hall, her fiery red outfit seemingly the brightest color in the world.
Zheng Dongliu, sitting in the main seat, looked at Lu Yunzhu as she walked in, a trace of surprise flashing in his eyes: "Your realm has improved quickly. In just a few months, you advanced from Divine Presence straight to the peak of Divine Concealnt."
"It's okay," Lu Yunzhu said, placing her hands behind her back, "Jin'an has returned to Yun ng Cliff. If there's anything, just tell ."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Dongliu couldn't help but frown. Again?
He stood up and walked towards her, "Is your realm the backing for indulging him?"
"I'm about to retire soon, so there's no need to worry about so much," Lu Yunzhu responded casually, "Each generation has its own fortunes; worrying too much can shorten your life."
Zheng Dongliu shook his head with a smile, "You don't understand."
"Is Sect Master Zheng blaming for not acting from the Human Clan's standpoint?"
"Yes," Zheng Dongliu said frankly, "If I had known you had such power, I definitely would have spoken to the Lu Family. But now, talking about this is aningless, as everyone's path differs. I've co to terms with many things and won't comnt much, but..."
He sighed lightly, "You treat the world as your chessboard, placing Jin'an in the most critical position... making everyone else your pawns, which doesn't feel too good."
"I am also a pawn," Lu Yunzhu replied calmly, "If you feel uncomfortable, why not take a look at Outer Heaven? I can still help with that."
"Forget it, my only thoughts are for the Human Clan."
"If that's the case, just watch over things in the remaining ti," Lu Yunzhu gently lifted her chin, "Wandao Sect is entrusted to Jin'an. You can rest assured."
"If, and I'm just saying if..." Zheng Dongliu took a deep breath, "If you win, what will you do?"
"The world will belong to the Lu," Lu Yunzhu turned to look at the scenery outside, "By then, the sects and families ruling separately will be just the beginning of the war."
"A family empire... won't be?"
"You worry too much," Lu Yunzhu replied noncommittally, "Anything else?"
Zheng Dongliu took a deep breath, "The hundred-year peace agreent I signed with Zhu Tianqi and Li Chengshi, will it affect future generations?"
"Minor issue, no need to worry."
"Nothing else."
"Alright," Lu Yunzhu stepped over the threshold, her voice tinged with amusent, "Everyone mocks the Lu Family as cuckoo birds, but who can stop us?
Wandao Sect is not the end."
Hearing Lu Yunzhu's voice, Zheng Dongliu paused for a mont and quickly asked, "If that's the case, what about the other mbers of the Lu Family..."
He knew that the Lu Family cultivated their descendants like cuckoo birds, yet the competition between these 'cuckoo birds' was also fierce. However, Zheng Dongliu hadn't found much information about the Lu Family at Mo Yun Pavilion.
"Those who wanted to compete with Jin'an were all taken down by , and those left knew how to keep a low profile," Lu Yunzhu chuckled lightly, "Those people aren't even worthy of being Jin'an's stepping stones."
Zheng Dongliu remained silent.
······
A large part of the Western Realm and Northern Boundary of Yunding Continent is now under the control of the Demon Clan.
Unlike the Human Clan, which divides regions by mountains and rivers, the Demon Clan occupies territories based on racial strength, forming strong racial gatherings that govern smaller tribes.
After Zheng Dongliu, Zhu Tianqi, and Li Chengshi signed a hundred-year no-war peace agreent between the two clans, many demon troops voluntarily withdrew from the front line at the Central Region's border.
Lu Jin'an and Qiu Qingtang quietly crossed the border with Yun Duo and Miao Tong, entering the Demon World.
"Young Master Lu," Qiu Qingtang approached Lu Jin'an's side, "although the agreent is sanctioned by the Heavenly Dao, they won't miss a chance to kill you if they get the opportunity. Now is not the right ti."
"No worries," Lu Jin'an said nonchalantly, "Not to ntion they can't discover us, but it's also not an easy task to kill ."
"Alright then," Qiu Qingtang shifted the topic, "Sect Master Zheng signed that agreent directly without considering any traps?"
"At least on the surface, it benefits the Human Clan," Lu Jin'an replied softly, "For him, that reasoning alone is sufficient.
He holds great love for the Human Clan, and with that, he doesn't weigh the agreent against any potential harm, money, or other things."
"True~" Qiu Qingtang nodded earnestly, "With love cos unlimited freedom..."
Yun Duo and Miao Tong stifled a giggle. Qiu Qingtang really had a knack for saying cheeky things.
Lu Jin'an was speechless for a mont, "Your analogy is quite extre."
"Am I wrong?" Qiu Qingtang hooked her arm around Lu Jin'an's, "Just like Yun Duo and the others, without love, would Young Master Lu be entitled to enjoy so much talent for free?"
"Makes sense."
"Right, hehe~"
With that, Qiu Qingtang quickly called Yun Duo and Miao Tong over, "The Demon Clan isn't as bustling as the Human Clan. If Young Master Lu feels bored, we can accompany you to relieve so of that boredom along the way.
"Then sing a song."
"Saint Heir, is it another bawdy one?" Yun Duo asked with a teasing smile.
"Sothing more heroic this ti."
"Hmm... alright then."
Yun Duo pondered for a mont, then cleared her throat to begin singing. Miao Tong, unable to match that kind of articulate tune, simply turned back into her original form with a roll of her eyes.
