In the past two days, I was first recognized by Wuyue and was then led to this ancient battlefield by her. I saw countless Yin Souls and Ghost Generals. I even saw the Winged Dragon phantom when the snake spirit broke through.
Every one of these things shocked me, but all the shock added together was not as great as seeing Lu Zhenyang lying on the ground like a dead fish.
In my memories, Lu Zhenyang's cultivation could be described as heaven-defying.
At the Heavenly Grand Ritual, he had single-handedly brought the Spiritual Mountain Grotto-Heaven to the top ten grotto-heavens. In the end, if it wasn't for this trip to Zhuolu, he might have even replaced Wangwu Grotto-Heaven and become the final champion.
How did such a powerful Lu Zhenyang become like this?
Did Wuyue attack him?
I frowned slightly. From my point of view, Wuyue only has the cultivation of a Yang God Celestial Master and has a Yin Soul body. It's possible that he's stronger than me, but it's unlikely that he's stronger than Lu Zhenyang.
With this in mind, I took a deep breath and calmed myself down. I raised my head and asked Wuyue, who was walking in front of me, "Senior, is the person on the ground dead or alive?
Why is he here? Did he offend Senior? "
Wuyue stopped in her tracks and turned to look at me. There was no surprise in her eyes. Clearly, she knew Lu Zhenyang's identity very well.
She nodded with a smile and said calmly, "He's not dead, but he's not far from death.
As for the reason … The reason why the Daoist priest of Mount Dragon Tiger was able to discover my tracks was because he led me here.
It's a pity that I've been hiding for a hundred years and haven't been exposed. This person has unintentionally destroyed my hundred years of hard work. He naturally offended me! "
I was somewhat dumbfounded when I heard that. From what Wuyue said, Lu Zhenyang's current state was really due to him.
Lu Zhenyang and Mount Dragon Tiger's enmity was due to the few Daoist priests he killed in the Fengshui Metaphysics shop. It's also related to me.
After that, I heard that the people of Mount Dragon Tiger had been chasing after him. I never expected that those Ox-noses would fail to punish him. In the end, they accidentally barged into this place and fell into Wuyue's hands. Fate really makes a fool out of people.
It's no wonder there was no news of Lu Zhenyang after I came to Zhuolu. I was originally puzzled, but now, I have found the answer.
Just as he was sighing, Wu Yue continued, "Originally, even though he lured the people from Mount Longhu here, it was unintentional after all. It didn't cause any serious consequences. I didn't want to do anything to him.
But later, I found out that the man had come for something in the mountain. He also told me that he knew the way to enter that place. I was overjoyed and brought him here.
Who would have thought that here, he would reveal his true colors. It turned out that he didn't know the way to open the door at all, and only said those words to use me.
What Wuyue hates the most in his life is being deceived by others. That's why he used some tricks to imprison him here. "
This explanation allowed me to understand the details of what had happened. However, I quickly thought of something else and asked Wuyue, "Senior, you exposed my identity and know some other things … Did you learn all of it from this person?"
Wu Yue smiled brightly. "Of course.
This person lost his mind under my zither music and spat out the truth. He said that he wanted to wait for the two of you to come before he could work together to open the door.
When I heard him mention the door, I asked carefully. Only then did I know the exact identities of Mr. Zhou and Mr. Lin. I also knew that you were about to arrive here.
Following that, I went outside to investigate and quickly found the two of you. "
So that's how it is. I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart.
For the past two days, I've been guessing what relationship this Wu Yue has with me. I never expected it to be like this. I really don't know whether to laugh or cry.
I pointed at Lu Zhenyang and continued asking, "The thing that Senior is talking about should be this person, right?
To tell you the truth, this person and I are irreconcilable enemies.
If Senior has nothing else to ask him, why don't you leave him to me to deal with? "
I tried my best to speak calmly, but I was extremely nervous.
My hatred for Lu Zhenyang had always been an obsession of mine.
Even though I killed Lu Ziyang in the Yinshang Royal Tomb, the real person who killed my parents was Lu Zhenyang. As long as he didn't die, the hatred in my heart wouldn't disappear.
Ever since Lu Zhenyang reappeared, his cultivation became higher and higher, far surpassing mine.
I originally thought that I wouldn't have a chance to take revenge in a short period of time, but I never thought that Lu Zhenyang would encounter such a calamity. I can only blame his bad luck.
Wu Yue seemed to know that I would ask this question. After hearing what I said, he spread his hands and revealed a bitter smile.
"He naturally has no use to me. However, this person's cultivation isn't ordinary. After I confused his mind with the sound of the zither, I was worried that he would counterattack, so I used the formation here to imprison him here … Although you can't see anything from the outside, once you touch his body, you will feel the power of the formation.
This formation is extremely powerful. After being trapped inside, not to mention him, even the most powerful person wouldn't be able to escape. However, at the same time, the formation is the best defense. I can't take him away at all, nor can I attack him from the outside … "
I widened my eyes. There was such a thing?
In order to verify Wu Yue's words, I bent down and pressed my hand on Lu Zhenyang's body. As expected, there seemed to be an invisible barrier on Lu Zhenyang's body. In an instant, the power that I sent over was bounced back. It didn't touch Lu Zhenyang's body at all.
I didn't believe it, so I opened my mouth and spat out the Xuan Yuan Sword.
Because I had just used the power of the Pregnant Sword not long ago, it didn't have the power of the Pregnant Sword. However, the Xuan Yuan Sword's sharpness wasn't ordinary. I reached out to grab the Xuan Yuan Sword and fiercely stabbed it.
Just like before, the Xuan Yuan Sword had obviously hit a barrier and couldn't move an inch forward.
Next, no matter how much True Essence I used, the invisible formation would reflect all of the power back at me. Just like what Wuyue had said, I couldn't attack him from the outside at all. I couldn't even touch him.
I put away the Xuan Yuan Sword and was silent for a long time. Then, I raised my head to look at Wu Yue and asked unwillingly, "Since you used the formation to imprison him, can't you remove the formation?"
Wu Yue shook his head. "The formation is here. I only borrowed the power of the formation. I can't control the formation at all.
However, Mister Zhou, you don't have to do this.
This formation can wear down a person's essence. If he's trapped inside, it won't be long before he loses all his essence and dies miserably. Mister Zhou, you don't have to be so impatient. "
I sighed. What he said was right, but I hated Lu Zhenyang. If I didn't take his life with my own hands, I still felt that I hadn't completely vented my hatred.
After staying silent for a while, I finally accepted this fact.
Then, I let out a long sigh.
All these years, the matter of avenging my parents had been the heaviest thing in my heart. Now, there was finally an outcome. It was a pity that I couldn't do it myself.
While I was lost in my thoughts, the fatty beside me suddenly wailed and said, "Third Baby, if he dies here, we won't be able to break the formation. Won't my Monster Refining Gourd disappear with him?"
All this time, I had only been thinking about my hatred. Only after Fatty's words did I recall the Monster Refining Gourd. I was immediately stunned.
On this trip to Zhuolu, my other goal was the Monster Refining Gourd. Furthermore, the Monster Refining Gourd had been taken away by Lu Zhenyang because of me. If I couldn't get it back, it would be too unfair to Fatty.
I naturally didn't want such a thing to happen, but looking at the motionless Lu Zhenyang on the ground and the disappointed fatty, there was nothing I could do.
Just as I was at a loss, Wu Yue suddenly extended his hand and handed something over. He continued smiling and said, "The Monster Refining Gourd you mentioned should be this, right?"
I focused my eyes and saw that Wu Yue was holding the Monster Refining Gourd.
I was immediately overjoyed. Before I could thank Wu Yue, Fatty was anxious and had already taken it. He kept fiddling with it in his hand, his face full of smiles. He had long thrown his depression aside.
Seeing him happy, I heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly thanked Wu Yue.
However, Wu Yue smiled faintly and waved her hand. "It's nothing. It's just that it belongs to its owner."
She said it very calmly, but I felt that she was unfathomable.
