Chapter 1115: An Explanation for the Yuan Family of the Emperor Clan
Now that things had come to this, he finally understood. In the end, it was not because he was too weak, nor was it because he was not good at fighting.
All these years, he had been able to steadily suppress the Venerable Zhang Yuzhou. This showed that his political skills were quite formidable.
However, they were not a country of mortals. What was the use of such formidable skills? Facing the complicated relationship of the Zhang family in the Great Void Pavilion, he had no way at all.
If it was him, even if he did not let the Venerable Zhang Yuzhou succeed, this was the best he could do.
However, Lu Xuan was able to cut the Gordian knot and capture the Venerable Zhang Yuzhou and the Skeleton Old Man directly. Then, he dealt with the few Golden Immortals of the Zhang family at lightning speed. Even the Golden Immortals of the Zhang family did not dare to resist.
It was not because of Lu Xuan’s superb skills and astonishing prestige. It was purely because Lu Xuan suppressed everything with absolute strength.
No matter what kind of methods the Zhang family, the Skeleton Old Man, or the holy son of the Shi family had behind, they could not defeat Lu Xuan.
There was a saying on earth that the truth was only within the range of the cannon. Although Venerable Han Lin did not know this, he understood this principle deeply at this moment.
Many things were not that complicated. It was only because he was not powerful enough that many things had developed into such an unmanageable situation.
It was almost at that time that Venerable Han Lin decided to pass the Great Void Pavilion to Lu Xuan. It was only a matter of time.
The Golden Immortal was not immortal, and he would still die. He had already planned to pass it to Lu Xuan. Otherwise, he would not have rejected all the objections and invested so many resources in Lu Xuan.
Everything was just brought forward!
“Fortunately, pavilion master is here today. Otherwise, who knows what the Zhang family would do. Zhang Yuzhou wants to be rich and powerful, and he wants to take a step forward, but he wants to drag the Great Void Pavilion down with him. This is something that I cannot tolerate!”
The Venerable Han Lin said.
“The Shi family of the Emperor clan used an Immortal King’s cultivation manual to exchange for Zhang Yuzhou’s loyalty, but that was a joke to the entire Great Void Pavilion. It’s not like our Great Void Pavilion doesn’t have a backer. If they knew that the Great Void Pavilion betrayed us, I’m afraid that the entire Great Void Pavilion would be razed to the ground!”
Lu Xuan nodded. After pacifying the Zhang family, the results of the interrogation came out very quickly. It turned out that the holy son of the Shi family had used an Immortal King’s cultivation manual to exchange for Zhang Yuzhou’s loyalty.
Although it was not the Immortal King’s Scriptures, it was just a cultivation manual. However, there were many Immortal King’s cultivation insights in it. It was still priceless.
Zhang Yuzhou had obviously been stuck at the summit of Golden Immortal Realm for many years. He wanted to take this opportunity to go all out.
However, it could be a disaster for the entire Great Void Pavilion.
The Emperor clan behind the Great Void Pavilion would definitely not tolerate such a betrayal, just like how he would not tolerate the betrayal of the Zhang family. When that time came, they might vent their anger on the entire Great Void Pavilion.
If the holy son of the Shi family could not protect the Great Void Pavilion, the foundation of the Great Void Pavilion for tens of thousands of years would be completely destroyed.
“The Yuan family where the Hunyuan Immortal Emperor is from?” Lu Xuan took a sip of immortal tea and asked.
As far as he knew, the backer of the Great Void Pavilion was the Yuan family where the Hunyuan Immortal Emperor was from.
Similar to the Emperor clan of the Shi family, the Hunyuan Immortal Emperor had already fallen, while the Yuan family was in a worse state. The Shi family did not suffer any fatal injuries during the ancient war, but the Yuan family suffered fatal injuries. Until now, there were probably less than a hundred members in the family.
For an Emperor clan, such a population could be said to be on the verge of extinction at any moment.
This was because the Yuan family was a family that had suffered the curse of a supreme being in the Demon Realm. When the Yuan family’s Immortal Emperor was still around, this curse naturally would not affect the Yuan family.
However, ever since the Hunyuan Immortal Emperor had fallen, this curse had taken effect. This made it extremely difficult for the Yuan family to produce a descendant for generations.
Every generation had to have a descendant, and they had to be at the right place at the right time. They also had to pay a huge price to succeed.
But even so, no one dared to look down on this family. Even if they had fallen to such a state, this was still a majestic Emperor clan. There were many Immortal Emperors who left behind their foundations and methods. It was not difficult for them to wipe out the Great Void Pavilion.
Lu Xuan knew this, so he also understood that Venerable Han Lin’s concerns were not unreasonable.
Especially since the Great Void Pavilion did not even have an Immortal King, it could not withstand the Yuan family’s backup plan.
“So pavilion master knows, then it saves me the trouble of wasting my breath!”
Venerable Han Lin said.
“That Zhang Yuzhou thought that the Yuan family was already in decline, so he did not put the Yuan family in his eyes. He wanted to join the Shi family, but he did not know that there were still three catties in a broken ship, let alone that kind of Emperor clan. When I was young, I went to visit the Yuan family with my elders. I know that the Yuan family’s strength can be said to be unfathomable. There are even Immortal Kings holding down the fort. How can our Great Void Pavilion withstand the Yuan family’s counterattack!”
“That’s right!”
Lu Xuan nodded his head. The current Great Void Pavilion could not afford to offend the Emperor clan, even if their strength had been greatly reduced and they had suffered heavy losses.
It was the same for him. He could not afford to offend them unless he was already in the Immortal King Realm. At that time, even the Yuan family of the Emperor clan would treat him like a distinguished guest.
After all, the Emperor clan was divided into different grades. The Great Void Pavilion was at the bottom of the first-rate factions, while the Yuan family of the Emperor clan was at the bottom of the ranks.
Unless there was an Imperial Emperor, such as the Moon Emperor’s Emperor clan’s strength, the Shi family and the Yuan family combined would not be a match for them.
“That’s why I did not kill the Zhang family. When the Yuan family of the Emperor clan comes to demand an explanation, I will hand them over!”
Lu Xuan said.
“Since pavilion master knows what’s going on, then I can rest assured!”
Venerable Han Lin nodded. He was most afraid that Lu Xuan would be young and impetuous and not put the Yuan family in his eyes. When that time came, he would cause a great deal of trouble.
“But what about that Skeleton Old man? Is he involved with the holy son of the Shi family?” Venerable Han Lin asked.
“Just kill him directly!” Lu Xuan said. “He and I are already in a life-and-death situation. Even if he doesn’t come to kill me, I will kill him!”
Seeing the Venerable Han Lin’s worried expression, Lu Xuan smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I’m not that reckless. When I become an Immortal King, I will kill him. At that time, what can the Shi family do to me?”
Venerable Han Lin heaved a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Lu Xuan would just throw his life away. After all, the Shi family’s strength was too terrifying.
However, if Lu Xuan became an Immortal King, everything would be different. Even if he was not a match for the Shi family, he would still be able to protect himself. The Great Void Pavilion would not be buried along with him.
“Oh right, venerable, I have another matter that I need you to do!”
