Chapter 1014: Could It Be That Lu Xuan Was Born Holy?
“You… you killed him!”
Kou Yuande was still unable to accept this. To him, this was simply a disaster.
“That’s right. If he wants to kill me, then so be it. If he wants to take me as his slave, then he has to be prepared to die in my hands!”
Lu Xuan’s expression was calm. He did not think that killing a peerless genius was anything extraordinary.
To the Zhao family, they might be geniuses met only once in a thousand years, the pillars and hopes of an entire generation, but to Lu Xuan, they were just ordinary peerless geniuses. That was all.
To Lu Xuan, who was a heavenly venerate in his previous life, unless someone was born holy, he wouldn’t pay even a little attention to them. A mere peerless genius was nothing.
“Do you know that this is a great disaster?” Kou Yuande gritted his teeth and said.
“The Zhao family will not let this go easily. I’m afraid that they might even alert the patriarch of the Zhao family!”
Kou Yuande’s meaning was very clear. He was a golden immortal, a real big shot in the heavenly realm. Even the person in charge of the Great Void Pavilion only had the cultivation base of a golden immortal.
A big shot of that level was not an existence that could be compared to a golden immortal.
“I know. This is inevitable. If the patriarch of the Zhao family doesn’t interfere, that would be a rare thing. Now is the time for the Great Void Pavilion to make a decision. Now, I don’t blame you for abandoning me. Let’s part on good terms!”
Lu Xuan waved his hand and said.
He could also guess the enormous pressure the Great Void Pavilion was facing. After all, it had been the last among the first-rate forces for many years, although its foundation was still not something that a second-rate force like the Zhao family could compare to.
But without the Immortal King holding down the fort, they naturally lacked the imposing manner of being able to say whatever they wanted. However, even though the Zhao Family was only a second-rate power, they still had their own faction. A single Zhao Family was nothing to worry about, but if one included the faction behind them, that kind of pressure was extremely great to the current Great Void Pavilion.
If the Great Void Pavilion wanted to leave now, Lu Xuan naturally wouldn’t blame them. After all, the cooperation between the two parties was still shallow. It was only natural that the other party wasn’t willing to take advantage of him.
Lu Xuan wouldn’t be unable to accept this. However, if the Great Void Pavilion were to leave now, then there would be no possibility of cooperation between the two parties in the future.
Thus, they parted ways. He joined the Great Void Pavilion because he had the ambition to devour the whole faction. However, at the same time, he was also looking for a backer. If the Great Void Pavilion could not even handle such a small matter, then there was no need for him to stay.
Although it was a little slow for Lu Xuan to start from scratch, it did not matter. It was only a matter of time, and the Great Void Pavilion would miss out on an existence that could lead them to the peak.
The choice was also with the elders of the Great Void Pavilion. Lu Xuan did not care much about it at the moment. The only thing he needed to do now was to get first place in the Talent Evaluation Ceremony.
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan activated the token on his body and disappeared into a circle of light.
Kou Yuande narrowed his eyes. He also understood what Lu Xuan meant. If the Great Void Pavilion gave up on him this time, then there would not be a next time for them. This was a very unstable alliance, and the leader could not resist. Those who only knew how to report and wait for instructions from their superiors, did nothing, passed the buck to each other, and even blamed those who were actually getting things done were all trash.
If it was Kou Yuande, he would not be willing to work with such trash. Incompetence was an unforgivable sin, and all of them deserved to be killed.
However, after seeing Lu Xuan’s previous performance, he knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Even a peerless genius like Zhao Wuji was easily killed.
Lu Xuan hadn’t even used his full strength in fighting him. One could imagine how terrifying Lu Xuan’s strength was.
At the very least, he had never seen such a peerless genius in his life.
He even suspected that Lu Xuan wasn’t just some peerless genius at all. Instead, he might have been born holy.
Only someone born holy could beat Zhao Wuji so easily.
However, he couldn’t see through the current Lu Xuan at all. It was as if he was in a cloud of fog. No one could understand the true him.
There were too many mysteries about Lu Xuan, especially regarding his origins.
The heaven realm was vast, and even the heavenly court could not know everything, the fact that even the Great Void Pavilion could not find a single trace of him was very suspicious.
No one knew how many secrets there were about him.
Until now, Kou Yuande finally knew that he could not truly understand Lu Xuan, just like how he did not know when Lu Xuan broke through to the gold immortal realm. Lu Xuan had some tricks up his sleeve.
However, if his guess was true and Lu Xuan’s talent was truly holy, that would be truly terrifying. That talent would be a legend even in the heaven realm.
According to legend, the ten Great Immortal Emperors had this kind of talent. Only with this kind of talent could they have a chance to become Immortal Emperors.
And with this kind of talent, it could be said that as long as they did not die prematurely, they would definitely become an Immortal Emperor in the future. And this was exactly what the Great Void Pavilion lacked at the moment. They had everything except for an Immortal Emperor.
The Great Void Immortal King had disappeared for too many years. They desperately needed such an existence to hold down the fort.
“No matter what the higher-ups think, I must think of a way to keep Lu Xuan!”
Kou Yuande immediately analyzed the pros and cons and made up his mind to think of a way to convince the higher-ups. Such a talent could not be wasted.
Otherwise, it would be too late when Lu Xuan set up his own sect.
Lu Xuan’s words might not have meant that. If the Great Void Pavilion could not protect him, he would set up his own sect, or find a faction that could protect him.
In this world, the ruler chose his subjects, and the subjects also chose the ruler.
A powerful genius would not lack charisma and the ability to attract no matter where he went. Such a person was destined to shine. The only difference was where he would shine.
If other factions had the opportunity to obtain such a talent, they would probably wake up in the middle of the night laughing. They would definitely think of ways to recruit such a genius.
“No, I have to report this as soon as possible!” Kou Yuande immediately made a decision. He could not let Lu Xuan be killed by the Zhao family, nor could he be recruited by other factions.
For the sake of the Great Void Pavilion faction, he had poured his heart and soul into it. It was really too difficult. It was not easy at all.
Thinking of this, Kou Yuande immediately crushed a teleportation talisman on his body. This was a teleportation talisman that could directly travel between the Heaven Realm and the Heavenly Court.
The Heavenly Court was above the Ninth Heaven and one had to travel an unknown distance to reach it. Even for mighty figures of the Gold Immortal Realm, it was a very troublesome distance, and it was fraught with many dangers.
That was why these convenient teleportation talismans existed.
In the next moment, Kou Yuande disappeared into a halo of light.
