Chapter 1587 The Unholy One Seeks Justice (2)
Yu Die did not seem to have any cultivation. Her Dantian’s sea of Qi was still unopened.
Hence, Lu Zhou asked, “Has she ever cultivated in the past?”
The Qin Yuan nodded. “Her talent in cultivation was extraordinary. She had pa.s.sed two Birth Trials.”
‘How strange. Currently, her Dantian’s sea of Qi hasn’t been opened. Does rebirth mean a new beginning and clean slate?’
Lu Zhou became even more curious. He had a feeling that the Resurrection Scroll and the merit stone held even bigger secrets.
‘Then, where’s the merit stone? Forget it. It’s useless to think about it now.’
Lu Zhou organized his thoughts and waved his hand as he said, “Alright, you may leave. Have a good rest.”
“Yes.”
However, before the Qin Yuan left, she could not help but ask, “Pavilion Master, are you really planning to go to the Great Abyss Land?”
Lu Zhou nodded. “What’s the matter?”
“If there’s anything you need, please tell me. From today onward, my life is yours,” the Qin Yuan said as she kneeled again.
Lu Zhou nodded. “Alright. I appreciate your thoughts. You can leave now.”
“Yes.”
Then, the Qin Yuan and Yu Die respectfully left the ancient building.
Finally, Lu Zhou had fulfilled his promise to the Qin Yuan hive.
After three days.
Lu Zhou ordered the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion to gather.
After they traveled to the Unknown Land through a runic pa.s.sage in groups, they traveled through the runic pa.s.sages they had left behind in the past until they were 3,000 miles away from the Great Abyss Land’s forest.
Currently, Lu Zhou only had a vague idea of his strength. After exchanging blows with Fei Dan, he knew he would be able to suppress lesser divine kings. However, Emperor Yu was definitely stronger than Fei Dan. He was not sure who would win if they fought.
The reason he wanted to go to the Great Abyss Land was due to that simple map. The location marked on the simple map was the Great Abyss Land.
According to the final words of the Unholy One, he wanted to take back what belonged to
him.
Lu Zhou thought that the best time to take back whatever the Unholy One wanted was before the Great Void and the Great Abyss Land became one. Since he still had a few item cards and methods, he was quite confident about meeting Emperor Yu.
As they traveled through the forest, the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion escorted Fei Dan and the other Feather tribesmen. After a while, they finally saw the Great Abyss Land’s Pillar of Destruction.
A ma.s.sive black figure circled the sky above the Pillar of Destruction.
Upon seeing the Pillar of Destruction, Fei Dan’s eyes lit up with hope. He asked, “Are you really going to see Emperor Yu?’
“Don’t talk so much nonsense,” Pan Zhong said.
Fei Dan said, “Lord Unholy One, I admire your courage.”
When everyone heard Fei Dan’s form of address, they were shocked. From what the Great Void people said, it was the Unholy One that fought with Tu Wei. Then, they gathered that Lu Zhou was affected and fell into the abyss. How could they not be shocked now that they discovered the Unholy One that everyone spoke about was their Pavilion Master? Moreover, Mings.h.i.+ Yin who was present at that time did not mention this matter at all.
Lu Zhou looked at Fei Dan expressionlessly and said, “How can a puny Emperor Yu be compared to me?”
Everyone was further shocked when they heard these words. This was equivalent to Lu Zhou admitting he was the Unholy One.
As for Lu Zhou, he had already decided that he might as well become the Unholy One since everyone thought he was the Unholy One.
Following that, Lu Zhou flew toward the Great Abyss Land, and everyone followed suit.
On the ground, there was still a large number of Three-headed tribesmen guarding the land.
In Lu Zhou’s eyes, what was different from back then was that now the Three-headed tribesmen were worse than ants.
As expected, as they flew, the Three-headed tribesmen began to attack. They threw their spears into the sky.
“Power of concealment.”
With Lu Zhou in the center, the divine power spread out and shrouded everyone.
Whoos.h.!.+
Lu Zhou, the people from the Evil Sky Pavilion, Fei Dan, and the other Feather tribesmen vanished from sight immediately.
The Three-headed tribesmen: “???”
After a few breaths, Lu Zhou and the others appeared at the border of the Great Abyss Land.
The Feather tribesmen there seemed to have sensed the unusual movement and rushed over immediately.
A loud cry rang in the air.
“Who dares trespa.s.s into the Great Abyss Land?”
Fei Dan immediately said in a dark voice, “Don’t make a move!”
The expert from the Feather tribe, who was the first to arrive, took a closer look before an expression of shock appeared on his face. “General Fei Dan! You, you, why are you here?”
The other Feather tribesmen who had just arrived were shocked as well. At the same time, an ominous feeling rose in their hearts. After all, the scene before them did not look like a victorious return at all. They all knew Fei Dan had been ordered to go to the twin lotus domain to investigate the strange movements of the earth there. Now, Fei Dan’s face was pale. Not only that, but his hands and feet were bound, and there were even b.l.o.o.d.y marks on his body. He looked quite miserable.
Fei Dan sighed and said, “Tell His Majesty to come here.”
“General, how, how can we disturb His Majesty? This… This…”
“If I tell you to go, then go. Don’t talk so much nonsense,” Fei Dan said in a raised voice as he frowned.
“Understood!”
One of the Feather tribesmen rushed inside immediately.
Lu Zhou remained expressionless and silent as he stood there. He did not intend to barge in.
Meanwhile, the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion were still getting over the fact that Lu Zhou was the Unholy One. At the same time, they felt rather anxious. After all, this was their first time at the Great Abyss Land. What they knew was a combination of what Little Yuan’er told them and their own imagination.
Soon after, the Feather tribesman rushed out again. He bowed to Lu Zhou and the others before he said, “His Majesty invites everyone
in.”
Lu Zhou said indifferently, “What a way to put on airs.”
The Feather tribesman: “???”
As soon as Lu Zhou’s voice fell, a deep voice rang from the core of the Great Abyss Land.
“Why do you have to stoop to his level, Lord Unholy One?”
Upon hearing Emperor Yu confirming the ident.i.ty of the person before them, the Feather tribesmen broke out in cold sweat and chills ran up their spines as they instinctively took three steps back. When they thought about how they were about to attack earlier, they trembled in fear. What a close call!
Finally, Lu Zhou placed his hands on his back and walked toward the Pillar of Destruction.
Everyone followed suit.
The Feather tribesman, who had acted as a messenger earlier, did not expect the other party was the Unholy One whose name had shaken the world in ancient times. He did not even dare to raise his head and only said in a low voice, “Please follow me.”
Under the Feather tribesman’s lead, they entered the Great Abyss Land.
When the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion crossed the boundary into the Great Abyss Land, they admired the sunlight and the beautiful scenery. The contrast between this place and the outside world was truly too stark. It was just as Little Yuan’er had said; this was place was too beautiful. The Great Abyss Land was part of the Unknown Land, but why was it so different from the rest of the Unknown Land?
Not long after, they were led to the main hall in the Great Abyss Land. It was called the Supreme Hall. It was the largest building apart from the Pillar of Destruction in the Great Abyss Land.
Lu Zhou walked into the hall with his hands on his back.
At the same time, a figure appeared at the steps of the hall. The person was dressed in luxurious clothing. His wings were folded, but his Saint Light shone brightly. He looked n.o.ble and dignified.
At this time, all the Feather tribesmen in the vicinity kneeled one after another. “We pay our respect to Emperor Yu!”
Upon seeing this, the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion were almost led astray. They had instinctively wanted to kneel as well to pay respect. However, when they saw Lu Zhou standing calmly with his hands on his back, they regained their senses and straightened their backs.
As expected, Emperor Yu was not angry. Instead, he smiled faintly and said, “Prepare a seat.”
“Understood.”
A Feather tribesman hurried away and returned with an ornate chair that clearly symbolized status.
From the beginning until the end, Emperor Yu’s eyes were trained on Lu Zhou. From top to bottom, and bottom to top, he carefully sized Lu Zhou up. Although he really wanted to sense the legendary Unholy One’s cultivation, he held back.
After a moment, Emperor Yu said, “Please take a seat.”
Lu Zhou did not stand on ceremony and sat down immediately.
Emperor Yu asked, “May I know the reason for the Unholy One’s visit?”
Lu Zhou waved his hand.
Pan Zhong, who was standing at the side, recounted Fei Dan’s offense in Fragrant Valley.
Emperor Yu understood that if the Unholy One wanted to seek justice, in fact, there was no need for the Unholy One to come here. Nonetheless, he said, “General Fei Dan is a capable general of our Feather tribe. If he has offended you, I’m willing to make amends on his behalf.”
Fei Dan’s mood sank immediately. Even the high and mighty Emperor Yu had to yield and show some respect to the Unholy One. He could not help but wonder inwardly, ‘Is the Unholy One truly so strong and inviolable? If that’s the case, how did the Great Void defeat him?’
Apart from that, Fei Dan was also confused. Were the Great Abyss Land and the Great Void not allies? Now that the Unholy One was here, not only was Emperor Yu not showing any signs of hostility, but Emperor Yu was so welcoming and respectful. It was as though Emperor Yu was welcoming an old friend.
Fei Dan raised his head and looked at Emperor Yu furtively.
Coincidentally, Emperor Yu was also looking at Fei Dan.
Lu Zhou recalled the memories of the Unholy One before he said, “I once left something here. Hand it over, and the conflict between me and the Great Abyss Land will be written off.”
After all, Lu Zhou truly had no enmity with the Feather tribe now.
Emperor Yu was stunned and perplexed. ‘When did the Unholy One leave his thing here?’
In fact, Emperor Yu only made a name for himself much later. During ancient times when the Unholy One’s name shook the world, Emperor Yu was just a young cultivator. In fact, he had only heard about the battle between the Unholy One and the Great Void and was not privy to a lot of things. In front of the Unholy One, he was just a junior.
Finally, Emperor Yu asked, “What is it?”
“It has been too long. I can’t remember clearly,” Lu Zhou replied with a straight face.
