Chapter 1226: The Beast Emperor Arrives

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The black fog suddenly parted, and one could clearly sense a huge thing rushing out from the fog.

‘Is this the reason why the Fire Phoenix put away its arrogance and distinguished its flames?’

Lu Zhou looked at his five-layer Golden Buddha’s Body. It was really too dazzling. He really wanted to cancel the effect of the Impeccable Card now; he was too obvious of a target. However, the Fire Phoenix was still hovering in front of him. If he canceled the effect, he would have a hard time defending himself against it.

‘Flee?’ Lu Zhou thought about it for a moment but felt like fleeing did not fit his style. ‘If I don’t kill this turkey, what’s going to happen to my reputation?’

At the same time, the Fire Phoenix was looking at the rolling black fog in the sky as well. It was clear its intelligence was not inferior to that of humans. All of a sudden, it squeaked and quickly descended to the ground in a crouching posture.

“What’s this?” Lu Zhou was really baffled.

Then, a strange noise rang in the air.

Lu Zhou looked down and saw the Fire Phoenix unfurling its wings before it slowly rose up. On the ground, there was a flaming red phoenix egg.

“…”


The Fire Phoenix seemed to have lost all its fighting spirit at this moment. It babbled and made a string of incomprehensible noises at Lu Zhou before it spread its wings and swiftly flew south.

Lu Zhou was further baffled. He almost wanted to call out, ‘Don’t leave! You forgot your child!’

Alas, the Fire Phoenix’s speed was too fast.

At this time, Lu Zhou could no longer care about the Fire Phoenix. After all, there seemed to be a fierce beast that was even more powerful than the Fire Phoenix in the black fog. If that was the case, he was doomed.

In the end, Lu Zhou thought it was best to leave for now. Under such circumstances, he could no longer care about his image. He looked at the egg. After a brief moment, he swooped over and quickly wrapped the phoenix egg up in his sleeve before flying away.

Lu Zhou canceled the effect of the Impeccable Card as he flew away. After flying to the distance, he turned around to have a look.

Everything had calmed down.

The black fog in the sky had stopped surging and looked normal as well.

“The Equalizer?”

If it was a fierce beast, it would have entered the battle earlier. Could it be that the Fire Phoenix’s strength as a divine beast had further disrupted the balance? Was that why an Equalizer came?

Lan Xihe had once said she was one of the Equalizers. Equalizers might not be invincible, but they had to possess a certain amount of strength. The Kun in the Endless Ocean was a natural Equalizer. It was far more powerful than any known fierce beasts or humans. Even the systems had indicated that it would have to exhaust all its power just to kill the Kun. Moreover, it might not even be able to kill the Kun. The Kun had lived for a long time in the Endless Ocean, how could it be without means to survive?

Lu Zhou’s thoughts wandered to Ye Zheng. Ye Zheng was not without means at all to survive a life-or-death situation. Although the death effect was triggered, Ye Zheng was still alive. Could it be that Ye Zheng had three puppets? It would explain how Ye Zheng survived the double trigger from the Deadly Strike Card and the collective demotion from the Fire Phoenix.

Following that, Lu Zhou began to fly again. He followed the burnt trail to find his way back. After 15 minutes, he saw Qin Renyue and the 49 Swordsmen in the sky. He saw Ye Zhen, who resembled a piece of charcoal at this moment, sitting cross-legged in the sky as well. He thought that if a confrontation broke out now, he would have no choice but to use up his remaining merit points. Nevertheless, there was no change in his expression as he flew over.

Meanwhile, Qin Renyue’s smile grew wider and wider when he saw Lu Zhou. “Congratulations, old sir, for defeating the Fire Phoenix.”

The 49 Swordsmen bowed in unison at Lu Zhou. All of them looked terrible after losing a Birth Chart each. They had lost their imposing air and looked meek.

At this time, Ye Zheng suddenly opened his eyes. He looked at Lu Zhou who was hovering at a lower altitude. Although he was wary of Lu Zhou’s terrifying strength, he could hardly conceal the hatred in his eyes. Out of the 36 Confucian scholars, only three to five of them were left in just a blink of an eye. He had used all his strength to save these few people. Alas, even if their lives were saved, it would be difficult for them to return to peak condition. With all these thoughts running in his mind, his gaze grew fierce and the frown on his face deepened.

One of the Confucian scholars at the side, who was charred black, grabbed Ye Zheng and said in a low voice, “V-venerable Master Ye… Endure… You must endure…”

With that, the hatred in Ye Zheng’s eyes gradually faded away and was replaced by calmness. It had been a long time since he had felt such emotional fluctuations like today. Seeing the Confucian scholars die before his eyes had undoubtedly dealt him a heavy blow.

At this moment…

“Sorry for being late…”

A deep and powerful voice that contained a hint of playfulness rang out.

Everyone turned in the direction of the voice and saw a flying chariot that looked like a ghost ship sailing over.

Qin Renyue frowned. “Tuoba Sicheng?”

Lu Zhou looked over as well. The situation had just gotten more complicated.

Ye Zheng did not show his emotions, but his eyes flashed before he said, “Brother Tuoba, how have you been?”

“Venerable Master Ye is here as well? It seems like I missed an exciting show…” Tuoba Sicheng said in a leisurely tone.

Qin Renyue said, “You’re indeed late, but it’s a good thing that you’re late…”

“What do you mean?”

“The Fire Phoenix was reborn into a divine beast and destroyed the 36 Big Dipper Flag Formation. Venerable Master Ye is only left with three to five of his men now,” Qin Renyue said. His words were filled with hidden thorns; not only did he use his words to intimidate the other party, but he also did not forget to rub salt in Ye Zheng’s wound.

Ye Zheng’s heart burned with anger, but his expression remained the same.

Tuoba Sicheng exclaimed in surprise, “It reborn into a divine beast? You really dodged a disaster. Two Venerable Masters, please visit my humble abode for a gathering when you’re free. I’ll take my leave now…”

Qin Renyue bluntly asked, “You want to take down Lu Wu?”

Tuoba Sicheng smiled. “Venerable Master Qin, do you plan to fight for it?”

Tuoba Sicheng was certain that fighting the Fire Phoenix had exhausted all their power. He thought he had come at the right time.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of something monstrously huge stomping on the ground rang in the air suddenly, causing the earth to tremble.

A huge head emerged from the darkness at this moment before a voice rang in the air. “You want… to… take me down?”

“Lu Wu?!”

“Retreat! Retreat!”

Qin Renyue and the 49 Swordsmen retreated swiftly.

Ye Zheng also hastily gathered his few men and retreated.

Tuoba Sicheng, who was in the black flying chariot, was surprised. He did not expect Lu Wu would come here. He retreated as well.

Everyone looked as though they were facing a formidable enemy.

Only one person stood unmoving in the air: Lu Zhou. He stroked his beard calmly as he looked at everyone scrambling away.

Qin Renyue looked at Lu Zhou meaningfully and gestured for Lu Zhou to hurry over as he said, “Old sir.”


Qin Renyue did not want any harm to come to Lu Zhou. Just the fact that Lu Zhou was able to escape unscathed when faced with the Fire Phoenix was enough for him to be friendly toward Lu Zhou.

At this moment, Duanmu Sheng, who was holding the Overlord Spear, appeared above Lu Wu’s head. He bowed and said, “Greetings, master.”

“There’s no need for formalities,” Lu Zhou said.

Following that, Lu Wu lowered its height and said, “Greetings, Pavilion Master.”

Since Lu Wu had joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, it had to abide by the rules of the pavilions like the humans. There was no exception.

Everyone. “…”

A heavy silence descended immediately. The whooshing sound of the wind rang in everyone’s ears and blew against them like cold knives.

Lu Wu’s words stunned the three Venerable Masters.

‘The old man wasn’t lying! Lu Wu, the beast emperor, is really his subordinate!’

Everyone had thought Lu Zhou was bragging, but as it turned out, he was just stating facts!
