"Wait."

Lu Yuan stood mid-air.

His eyes were cast towards Zhou Yunqiong in the distance.

Still as calm as ever, without any emotional fluctuations.

Yet, everyone present, whether the Four Great Beast Kings or the Zhou family members led by Uncle Zuo,

could feel that this was no ordinary statement.

It was intentional.

Jiang Ningxian, standing nearby, had a faint smile on her face.

For in her heart, she had roughly guessed what would happen next.

"Do you have any other matters?" Zhou Yunqiong, being a clever person, knew the other party definitely had something in mind, so there was a hint of caution in her tone.

She didn't quite understand, she hadn't done anything, had held back during the battle with the Four Great Beast Kings, and from all aspects, had given Lu Yuan considerable face, so why was it still this way?

If it were in the past, in front of the Lishan Imperial Mausoleum, the matter of her sister being killed wasn't even considered.

Logically, there should be no enmity, but now...

"The matter just now is settled."

"Now, let's talk about what was between us two."

Lu Yuan spoke, looking at Zhou Yunqiong in the distance, his gaze gradually becoming sharper: "Regarding the Winged Celestial God, some things weren't brought to light, but that doesn't mean they don't exist."

"What do you mean? The Winged Celestial God apologized to you back then but was killed by you. What does this have to do with my young mistress?"

Uncle Zuo stepped out directly, extremely wary. He thought it was over, but never expected it to be brought up again now.

And his cautiousness was naturally a sign of a guilty conscience.

"That so-called Winged Celestial God came from the Celestial Race."

"There's no enmity or hatred between the Celestial Race and King Lu, so what was the point of sending that person at the critical moment, Miss Zhou?"

Lu Yuan remained silent, but Jiang Ningxian spoke with a smile: "It was just to use him to create enmity between King Lu and the Celestial Race. Miss Zhou, you wouldn't deny such a small scheme of yours, would you?"

Back then, she had witnessed the entire event, and now, knowing Lu Yuan wanted to resolve it, she just brought it up directly.

"I just wanted to ease relations with you, never thought of it that way."

In this regard, Zhou Yunqiong naturally wouldn't admit it.

She had already decided.

To repair relations with the other party.

And then use it for the Zhou family, how could she admit to such scheming?

"I know you are not an ordinary person, but we are all smart people, is there any need for this?"

"The reason I asked you to stay was also to resolve this matter. The enmity between us should end here."

Lu Yuan spoke, not willing to let Zhou Yunqiong leave safely, as the other party had long been scheming against him.

Especially concerning the Celestial Race, he wasn't afraid, but being schemed against was unacceptable.

And now, since they met, he would show no mercy.

"Lu Yuan."

Zhou Yunqiong knew there was no escaping it, and immediately frowned: "Indeed, I did have some thoughts about you, but that is a thing of the past. You can see now that I want to make amends with you and laugh away grudges, how about it?"

If there was no escaping it, then she might as well directly admit it, thinking that Lu Yuan merely had some resentment in his heart.

Admit her wrongs, show a slightly better attitude, and leverage their university relations from the past.

The resentment would undoubtedly be resolved.

"Truly laughable."

Jiang Ningxian shook her head: "When you were scheming against King Lu, why didn't you have this thought?"

"And now that the situation isn't in your favor, do you just want to laugh away grudges and let the matter rest?"

She thought Zhou Yunqiong's words showed an incredibly thick face.

So she couldn't help but speak at this moment.

You were the one who schemed.

Now you want to resolve the issue too.

Do you think just one sentence can solve everything?

And Zhou Yunqiong, with a chilly expression on her face, was inwardly furious, but in the end, chose not to argue and looked towards Lu Yuan, the main subject.

"Now that it has come to this, people should pay the price for their actions." Lu Yuan certainly wouldn't choose forgiveness over a few words, as she had already set her schemes against him, who could say there wouldn't be more in the future.

So, the moment he finished speaking, he took a direct step forward.

Rumble~

Golden aura quaked.

And then it spread out in circles continuously.

At this moment, Lu Yuan's might was truly overwhelming.

At the pinnacle of the Venerable King Realm, just one step away from the Saint Realm.

Zhou Yunqiong couldn't help but feel alarmed, sensing great danger.

Yet, she still didn't believe he would strike her, and immediately said: "Lu Yuan, you should know that having come this far, there is a big figure standing behind me, whom you cannot contend with. Indeed, it was my fault before, but now I can assure you that as long as everything is past, whether it's the Celestial Race or other clans, all grievances with you can be settled."

"You have evolved to the extent you are today and wouldn't want to end up with the whole world as your enemy, would you?"

At this moment, Zhou Yunqiong brought out the person behind her.

While weighing the pros and cons for Lu Yuan.

Thinking the other party was smart.

And should know how to choose.

The one behind her was one of the top ten in the entire constellation, the bloodline of the Five Emperors.

Of course, she also knew this was hard to fool Lu Yuan, so while explaining the situation, she also lowered her posture.

Meanwhile, when Jiang Ningxian heard this, she couldn't help but shake her head.

Thinking that although the other party was more familiar with Lu Yuan,

they didn't understand him as well as she did.

Would mere words be able to change his decision?

"What I wish to do, no one can stop me. So what if the whole world is my enemy?"

Sure enough, Lu Yuan spoke without any hesitation, even knowing who stood behind Zhou Yunqiong.

But what of it.

He.

Was fearless.

Immediately, Lu Yuan took a direct step forward.

Boom~

Golden blood surged fiercely.

Powerful energy spread, engulfing all surrounding areas.

Zhou Yunqiong finally changed her expression, abandoning any further thoughts of speaking. She directly gestured, and a jade hairpin appeared, emitting layers of Holy Intent: "In that case, Lu Yuan, let me test your strength!"

In fact, she knew in her heart that she was no match for Lu Yuan, but at this critical moment.

She still wanted to rely on various Divine Artifacts obtained from the Ji clan.

To fight him.

After all.

She had a backup plan.

"Test my strength? You lack the capability."

These were Lu Yuan's last words before a single motion.

He appeared directly in front of Zhou Yunqiong, his immense pressure manifesting outward.

He seemed to transform into a primordial beast, shrouded in an unstoppable force, with a gaze that was calm as water yet filled with killing intent. Then, directly, he struck with a punch!

Rumble~

Powerful energy surged forth.

No mistake, Zhou Yunqiong had significant strength now.

Even those Outer Realm Creatures could be unfeared.

But now, the person she faced was Lu Yuan.

In that moment.

Zhou Yunqiong, under that might, retreated repeatedly, alarmed and infuriated: "Lu Yuan, do you really intend to kill me?"

"Always."

Lu Yuan replied flatly, and his actions became even more forceful than before.

Having made the decision, he would not stop!
