The entire place fell silent.
Although Qi Ping wasn’t among the strongest cultivators in Purple Star Palace, he could be considered powerful.
However, such a person was easily defeated by Feng Rulie with only one move. Moreover, Feng Rulie’s composure suggested that he hadn’t even fully activated his power.
Elder Xiao, who was seated right next to Pang Huanyin, broke a strand of his beard as he had exerted too much force on his hand.
Previously, they had no idea how powerful Feng Rulie truly was. Only the cultivators who had invited him to the Hidden Realm had seen it. They had wanted to witness his power by launching an attack on Lin Xun, but their enemy had already been eliminated in advance.
It wasn’t until this moment that they saw it with their eyes.
“One more person!” Feng Rulie pressed his spear against the floor. After drinking some wine, he was high-spirited.
Before Elder Xiao could give an order, a bearded man rose to his feet and said, “I’ll take on the challenge!”
Feng Rulie guffawed and wielded his spear before charging towards the bearded man.
Five breaths of time later, a towering figure was sent flying out of the hall.
“One more person!” Feng Rulie was combative as he placed his spear over his shoulder and swept a glance over the cultivators from Purple Star Palace.
A moment later, the third person was cast out of the hall, and Feng Rulie had only used three moves from start to finish.
“Let’s stop there, Sixth Junior Brother,” Lu Ye ordered.
Feng Rulie shook his head. “I still want to fight.”
He was always eager to fight. Three battles were only a warm-up to him.
“Why don’t I contend with you, then?” Lu Ye glanced at him.
As if a basin of cold water had been splashed onto him in the winter, Feng Rulie became sober in an instant, and he was no longer conceited. He retracted his spear and walked towards his seat without sparing Lu Ye a glance. He muttered under his breath, “Wine is a wonderful thing…”
Pang Huanyin squinted her eyes.
The cultivators from the Palace realised something as well, so they looked solemnly at Lu Ye.
Amid the silence, Elder Xiao coughed and said, “Your power is indeed incredible, Little Friend Feng.”
The man wasn’t just incredible. In the entire Purple Star Palace, only Pang Huanyin was a match for him; no one else could challenge him.
“Thanks for your compliment.” Feng Rulie guffawed and continued drinking wine.
“I wonder how powerful you are among your Senior and Junior Brothers, Little Friend Feng?”
The other cultivators were instantly all ears upon hearing Elder Xiao’s words.
Feng Rulie replied nonchalantly, “We’re ranked based on our powers. Since I’m the Sixth Junior Brother, I’m naturally ranked sixth.”
Some people were heard gasping while Pang Huanyin narrowed her eyes.
A person who was as powerful as she was was only ranked sixth.
In that case, the five people who were ahead of him must be even more powerful. What about the Eldest Senior Brother, Lu Yi Ye?
Pang Huanyin let out a breath to calm her emotions before turning to look at Lu Ye. “Please go on and tell me your next two demands.”
“The next demand is that I have to go to Mount Sumeru. I need your help with this matter.”
A puzzled Pang Huanyin asked, “Why do you want to go to there?”
Lu Ye explained, “It has something to do with my missing Junior Brothers and Sisters. My Seventh Junior Brother and I went to Silver Snake Valley while my Fourth and Sixth Junior Brothers came to Purple Star Palace. Perhaps my other Junior Brothers and Sisters might’ve entered Mount Sumeru. If I want to find them, I have to go there.”
“It’ll be difficult.” Elder Xiao shook his head. “Since the Divine Transformation, the three Hidden Realms have rarely come into contact with each other. Usually, the representatives would have a talk if they came across one another in the outside world. Or, we’ll gather together in a particular location at a specific time to exchange information. It’s extremely difficult to head straight to any Hidden Realm.”
Pang Huanyin asked, “What’s your third demand?”
Lu Ye shook his head. “I’ll tell you about it if you can fulfil my first two demands. Don’t worry. I won’t make things difficult for you. Moreover, my third demand might be the same as the goal of Purple Star Palace.”
“Our goal…” Pang Huanyin said meditatively. A moment later, she continued, “We’ll definitely help with your first demand. It’s understandable that you want to look for your Junior Brothers and Sisters. We’ll do our best to help. As for your second demand, I’ll discuss it with Elder Xiao and see if there’s a solution.”
“I’ll wait for your good news, then.” Lu Ye nodded.
The banquet soon ended, and everyone left.
Lu Ye and the others were brought to a tranquil Spirit Peak. Those from the Palace didn’t leave behind anyone there. In a radius of ten kilometres around the area, only four of them were left.
In the room, Lu Ye, who was getting some rest, frowned as he watched Lu Qing and Feng Rulie enter his room without his permission.
Behind them was the dejected Ying Wuji.
He didn’t want to come, but he had no other choice. Regardless, he was from Thousand Demon Ridge, so he had to stand by Lu Qing and Feng Rulie.
“What’s the matter?” Lu Ye glanced at them.
As though not wanting to appear weak, Feng Rulie straightened up and said, “We need to talk to you.”
“Go ahead.”
Feng Rulie went on to say, “We want to know the third demand you’re going to bring up. Also, why do you want to go to Mount Sumeru?”
Lu Ye glanced momentarily at him before shifting his attention to Lu Qing. “If there’s anything you want to know, just ask me straight away instead of using someone else’s help.”
Lu Qing replied with a smile, “You’re mistaken, Cultivator Lu…” He couldn’t finish his words, for Lu Ye’s gaze was penetrating and mocking. It was as though Lu Ye had seen through his mind. As such, he quickly said, “I’m indeed puzzled as well. I don’t think it’s as simple as your explanation to those from Purple Star Palace.”
“All nine of us were separated upon our arrival. Since the Heavens have sent us to this place, we’re supposed to work together. Now that the four of us are here, what’s wrong with me asking those from the Palace to help me look for the remaining five people?”
Lu Qing nodded. “There’s no problem with that. However, if you just wanted to look for them, you wouldn’t have to go to Mount Sumeru. You could just ask the people from Purple Star Palace to gather such information on your behalf. What’s your plan? Is there anything we don’t know?”
“What do I know that you don’t?” Lu Ye asked instead of answering his question.
He didn’t think he had exposed himself, but it now seemed that Lu Qing must’ve realised something. Certainly, a Spell Cultivator was usually cleverer than a Body-tempering Cultivator or a Combat Cultivator.
Lu Qing put on a helpless smile. “Why would I need to ask you the question if I knew the answer? You’ve just said that since the Heavens have sent all nine of us to this place, we’re supposed to work together. At the very least, the division between the Grand Sky Coalition and Thousand Demon Ridge is no longer important in the Peerless Continent. You have the biggest share of the Heavens’ blessing among us. I’m wondering if you’d received any instructions from the Heavens before we left Jiu Zhou.”
“No,” Lu Ye replied calmly. “I only know that the Heavens must’ve sent us to this place to get rid of the Corpse Race. I’m sure all of you have come to that realisation.”
