Old Master Zhou stared coldly at Ye Longlin. In his understanding, Ye Longlin was threatening him. If not a threat, then what was it?
“My Zhou family has stood in Nan Province for countless years. You are not a brat who can threaten us. I advise you to have your people stop, otherwise, you will bear the consequences of this matter!”
“If even one person from my Zhou family dies today, I guarantee you, Ye Longlin, will not be able to walk out of the Zhou family’s gate. Even if my Zhou family has to fight to the death, we will keep you here!”
“No matter who you are, no matter what your background, even if you are the son of the King of Heaven, you will have to stay here today!”
Zhou Haifeng said with a grim face, his eyes flashing with extreme danger.
As one of the Eleven Kings of Nan Province, he was fully qualified to say these words.
In the eyes of the ten great families, the underground king Xu Jiajun was simply not on the same level. Although he had so many powerful figures, he still couldn’t elevate the Xu family to the same status and become the eleventh family.
Underground power would never be recognized, no matter how strong it was.
Old Master Zhou possessed a powerful state of mind, and his personal combat ability could absolutely crush Xu Jiajun.
Watching so many people die, watching the white-haired send off the black-haired, even just this news could make a person’s psyche incredibly strong, let alone experiencing it once every thirty years.
He had witnessed it three times in his life, with forty-eight descendants perishing, leaving only eight survivors. Coupled with some other matters, the Zhou family now only had five members.
How tragic indeed.
Ye Longlin tapped the table, “This matter was not done by me. Don’t you want to know why the Zhou family is like this?”
*Clang!*
Everyone present felt their hearts lurch. They looked at Ye Longlin with shock.
For Old Master Zhou, these matters were taboo. Normally, no one dared to mention them in front of him. But now, not only were they mentioned in front of him, but also in front of the powerful figures of Nan Province!
Old Master Zhou narrowed his eyes. As an intelligent person, he knew Ye Longlin had more to say.
“What do you mean?”
Ye Longlin did not continue. Old Master Zhou understood his meaning and cupped his hands towards those present: “Everyone, there has been an incident at the Zhou family today. Please depart. After this matter is resolved, I will have Zhou Xu host another banquet to apologize to all of you.”
“There is no need for that, Old Master. Since the Old Master has spoken, we shall take our leave first.”
After each of them bid farewell, only six people remained at the scene.
Ye Longlin pondered for a moment and said, “What happened to the Zhou family is not a curse within the bloodline. As a martial artist, you should be aware that such curses are mere speculation, with no factual basis.
Your Zhou family genealogy was destroyed by a large fire during your father’s generation, and your father also died in this fire. Thus, the history of your Zhou family is unknown.”
Upon hearing this, Old Master Zhou instantly understood Ye Longlin’s implication and suppressed his anger: “You mean all this was orchestrated by humans, and my father’s death was to destroy the Zhou family’s history, and at the same time, to kill the only person who knew the history of the Zhou family?” httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Ye Longlin did not speak, but the meaning was crystal clear.
There was no need for further words between intelligent people, as certain things could be understood with a single hint.
“But why? Our Zhou family is not a true influential family, merely a local family in Nan Province!”
Zhou Xu asked with great confusion. He was completely bewildered, utterly clueless as to why Ye Longlin was saying all this.
“Hehehe, let me explain to you all. Little Long, we meet again. Sister told you, as long as you agree to Sister’s request, Sister can satisfy you with anything.”
Suddenly, a sweet voice echoed from the heavens.
The entire sky seemed to carry her voice, making it impossible to discern the direction.
Yuan Gang immediately rushed into the Zhou family mansion and disappeared without a trace!
Xuan Niao heard this and was instantly enraged: “You vixen, how dare you try to bewitch my master? Come out, and I’ll tear your face off today!”
Old Master Zhou was surprised. Why was it the woman beside Ye Longlin who reacted most fiercely to the sound?
A figure slowly walked in from the entrance. As her bare feet touched the ground, red lotuses bloomed beneath them, enchanting and eerie.
“Hall of Darkness, one of the Eight Divine Heavens, the Red Lotus Demoness.”
Ye Longlin’s expression also turned solemn. This was the true top-tier power of the Hall of Darkness!
Any one of the Eight Divine Heavens could contend with the Four Great Marshals without being at a disadvantage!
The Battle of Hetu was where they joined forces to deal with many of Great Xia’s marshals, causing a shortage of high-end power. They were true mortal enemies of Great Xia!
“Little Long brother, don’t call me that. I am your good sister, hehehe. As long as you pledge allegiance to the Hall of Darkness, I guarantee you will be the foremost among the Eight Divine Heavens, one of the leaders of the Hall of Darkness. What’s the point of being a mere Five-Star Heavenly King? Don’t you find it boring?”
The Red Lotus Demoness possessed a beauty that made the world envious. To the East, she appeared to have the beauty of Eastern women, and to the West, she had the beauty of Western women, perfectly inheriting the advantages of both and discarding their flaws, as if blessed by heaven itself.
Her proud figure was equally stunning, standing at one meter eighty-six with a fiery physique.
She wore a deep crimson evening gown, but it was open at the front, revealing a pair of fair, long legs. Her skin was as white as snow, exuding a sense of icy beauty.
Behind her, the long train dragged along the ground, creating an absolute top-tier visual impact and allure!
“If you can repay Great Xia’s blood debt, I might consider it. As for the Lord of the Hall of Darkness, one day, I will personally bring his head back to Great Xia.”
Ye Longlin’s voice was very soft, as if he were stating a simple fact.
The Red Lotus Demoness covered her mouth and giggled, saying innocently, “If that day truly comes, Sister will be at your disposal? Anything like little whips or little candles can be used, hehehe.”
Xuan Niao roared, “Bitch, shut your mouth!”
The two of them had a long-standing animosity.
The Red Lotus Demoness turned, her face instantly becoming cold. With a sweep of her large hand, Xuan Niao was sent flying. Fortunately, Ye Longlin caught her from behind, thus neutralizing the force.
“If not for Ye Longlin’s sake, you would be dead by now!”
She said chillingly, a stark contrast to her previous demeanor.
At the same time, Ye Longlin said, “Stand down.”
Xuan Niao was unwilling, but she could only retreat behind Ye Longlin.
“Since this is your Hall of Darkness’s plan, I, this King, would like to hear it!”
