“You can’t even kill a spirit with a cultivation level of ten thousand years. You’ve become an official of the Netherworld for nothing.”
Lu Zhou couldn’t help but complain.
“I’m just cherishing talent.”
Official Lu rubbed his nose and smiled foolishly.
Lu Zhou snorted and ignored him.
“Oh no!”
Halfway through, Official Lu suddenly stopped.
“What?”
Lu Zhou turned his head impatiently.
“His Highness and Xiao Sheng are still inside!”
He was only concerned about Lu Zhou’s safety and forgot about Chu Sihan and Lu Sheng.
Unexpectedly, Lu Zhou only said lightly, “You don’t have to care about them. Leave quickly.”
Lu Zhou said this because he knew that the two of them were safe. However, Official Lu heard another meaning.
Hence, he said unhappily, “What do you mean by not having to care? Let’s not talk about His Highness for now. Xiao Sheng is the only descendant of our Lu family. If anything happens inside, what should we do?”
Lu Zhou ignored him and continued walking, as if he did not hear him.
“Lu Zhou!”
Official Lu gritted his teeth. “Xiao Sheng is your biological daughter. When did you become so cold-blooded?”
His younger brother, a deity, was actually more cold-blooded than him, a ghost?
“You don’t have to worry about my daughter.”
Lu Zhou regained his senses and looked at him indifferently. “If you really meant well for her, you shouldn’t have brought her to the Demon Realm, much less let her enter Ghost Mountain.”
Official Lu was slightly stunned.
No matter how stupid he was, he knew that Lu Zhou had probably met Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan.
This time, he did not say anything else. Instead, he followed Lu Zhou out of the forest.
When the two of them reached the crack, Official Lu saw Chu Sihan and Lu Sheng.
“Your Highness, Xiao Sheng, are you alright?”
Official Lu walked forward and sized up the two of them.
Lu Sheng smiled and shook her head. “We’re fine!”
“Official Lu, long time no see!”
Shangguan Dian appeared out of nowhere and waved at Official Lu.
“Hah.”
Official Lu snorted coldly and turned his head away.
He did not have a good impression of the Demon Realm, including Shangguan Dian.
In addition, in order to take revenge back then, Shangguan Dian caused the citizens to lose their lives. Even now, he was still holding a grudge.
“Let’s go.”
Lu Zhou looked at them and spoke faintly.
“Yes, yes. Let’s go. We can’t let those flame spirits escape.”
As Shangguan Dian spoke, he let Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan enter the crack first.
However, Lu Sheng had just lifted her foot when the ground suddenly shook. The hole collapsed instantly, blocking their way back.
The few of them stared at the hole that was sealed with broken stones in despair. They did not react for a long time.
“Hahaha—”
Suddenly, laughter was heard.
They turned their heads at the same time.
When he saw the person behind him, Shangguan Dian’s expression was very ugly.
“Huan Yue, you’re still alive?”
“The demon king is not dead yet. How would I dare to die easily?”
Huan Yue twirled his beard and sneered.
“Since you want to die so badly, I don’t mind sending you off.”
Shangguan Dian gritted his teeth and glared at Huan Yue. Black aura flowed out of his hand.
Lu Zhou pulled him back and said in a low voice, “Calm down. Don’t act like a powder keg which will explode at one touch.”
Although Shangguan Dian did not know what a powder keg was, since Lu Zhou had said so, he could only retract his demonic power angrily.
Huan Yue looked at Lu Zhou and sneered. “Peak Master Lu, this is a matter of our Demon Realm. I advise you to stay out of it.”
