Immortal of the Ages

Chapter 535: Justice For Lu Yao!

During the day, Lu Changfeng had used his spirit guardian to probe Yun Xiao!

At that time, Yun Xiao's spirit had not yet emerged. So, it was natural to assume he was too weak to be the culprit.

However, Lu Changfeng also knew that Yun Xiao was not the real Lu Yao!

Even the Madame had brushed Yun Xiao off as a freeloader!

Yet now, after having just ascended to true immortality, Yun Xiao had instantly slain ten Arbiters at the Establishment True Immortal Realm!

"Changfeng!" Jiang Lanyue suddenly seized Lu Changfeng's arm, his expression looking grim.

All ten Arbiters under him were dead! Such a case had not occurred in the Thunder Department of the Skyruler Immortal Manor for centuries! It unfolded right under their noses. The situation was beyond control now!

Jiang Lanyue, ever cautious, did not wish to engage closely without knowing the true combat strength of the murderer.

Who could have guessed the real culprit was this seemingly harmless lamb before them?

Their shock was akin to a small lamb suddenly baring vast jaws and savagely killing ten lions!

"There's something eerie about this man; don’t engage him. Record everything with a projection orb, let the Skyruler Immortal Manor handle him!" Jiang Lanyue made what he thought was the right call in an instant.

"He's not that strong; I can kill him!" Lu Changfeng exclaimed, eyes blazing with fury. A mere lowlife had played him for a fool; how could he, the young master of the Lu Immortal Manor, just stand by?

"Then you fight; I'm leaving!" Jiang Lanyue declared, and immediately took off.

"Damn it!" Lu Changfeng cursed, almost biting his tongue, and after casting a final glare at Yun Xiao, he turned and followed Jiang Lanyue.

"Did I say you could leave?"

A cold, mocking voice rang by Lu Changfeng’s ear.

"Flying Sword!"

A chill ran down Lu Changfeng’s spine. As a Sword Cultivator, he knew all too well the peril of exposing one's back to another swordsman!

He spun around violently, a dark turquoise coloured Sword Soul appearing in his hand, instantly transforming into a three-foot-long sword, clashing with Yun Xiao’s Heaven Burial Sword Soul!

KLANG! The Heaven Burial Sword Soul was sent flying!

"Damn it!" Jiang Lanyue had made some distance, but this act left him profoundly uneasy.

Just as he thought he had avoided a risk, the violet Runic Umbrella suddenly swept in from the side, slicing towards his neck!

"Life Sigil?" Jiang Lanyue was startled, swiftly tracing a silver crescent moon in the air with his hands, blocking the onslaught of the umbrella! Though unharmed, he was forcibly halted.

SWOOSH! The young man in white, stepping on the night breeze, appeared before Jiang Lanyue, taunting, "A descendant of the governor of Sky Soaring City, offspring of a Rank 5 Immortal, fleeing without a fight—how utterly disgraceful!"

"You!" Jiang Lanyue glared at him furiously. In truth, he wasn't afraid; he simply believed that Yun Xiao harbored unknown powers, and he was unwilling to risk his own safety on behalf of Lu Changfeng.

But now, provoked by Yun Xiao's mockery, as a hot-blooded scion of a high-ranking Immortal lineage, Jiang Lanyue's eyes narrowed, and he could no longer hold back!

"Afraid to fight, yet dreaming of calling for help?" Yun Xiao sneered coldly.

"Jiang Lanyue, stop embarrassing yourself and kill him! Otherwise, I'll lose all respect for you!" Lu Changfeng also burst with rage.

"Shut up!" A tidal wave of anger surged within Jiang Lanyue. He retreated, standing shoulder to shoulder with Lu Changfeng, silent now, but resolved to no longer avoid battle.

"This, this..." Sun Xiaoqi watched the unfolding scene that surpassed her imagination, looking utterly stupefied.

Within her bewildered gaze, Yun Xiao clashed violently with the two prospective Rank 8 Arbiter Commanders in the desolate valley!

Lu Changfeng's Sword Soul, known as the Spectral Wind Sword Soul, was predominantly turquoise green, dotted with black spots that were actually whirlpool phoenix pools, capable of absorbing the wind of heaven and earth!

Though a Sword Soul, it struck like a fan, creating tempests with each swing!

The Sword Soul was of high quality, adorned with nine Demon Immortal Sword Rings, their power far surpassing that of the Dreamsea Abalones.

Indeed, Lu Changfeng was formidable!

Jiang Lanyue, an expert Inscription Cultivator, wielded the Silver Moon Sigil that was no less powerful than the Spectral Wind Sword Soul. In his hands, this sigil shimmered like a crescent!

Interestingly, Lu Changfeng and Jiang Lanyue's Sword Aura layer and Rune count was also stuck at 9,999,999, just shy of 10,000,000, matching that of Yun Xiao.

Beyond the two's Sword Souls and Life Sigils, their most unfamiliar powers were the manifestations of their spirit forms!

BOOM! Beside Lu Changfeng, his spirit guardian took form, wielding the power to shatter heavens and earth!

Jiang Lanyue’s spirit, known as the Crimson Moon Spirit, took the form of a blood-red moon, casting scarlet rays that enveloped him.

"Polar Glacier!" Jiang Lanyue summoned a celestial treasure that resembled an iceberg. When he merged the Silver Moon Sigil into it, it turned silver and shimmered with intensified power.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! The colossal iceberg pressed down on Yun Xiao, the Crimson Moon Spirit spreading wide, dragging the entire valley into a sea of blood as countless streams of crimson surged forth.

Simultaneously, Lu Changfeng, wielding his Sword Soul and guardian spirit, charged furiously at Yun Xiao.

"Lu Changfeng..." Yun Xiao suddenly turned, his cold laugh cutting through, "Did you know? It was actually me that killed Xiaolu!"

"You!" Lu Changfeng, not grieving for his little sister, felt only the sting of being toyed with by Yun Xiao.

"Die!" His Spectral Wind Sword Soul vibrated. Thousands of vortices swirled as his sword pierced through numerous wind tunnels—this was the famed Typhoon Piercer of the Lu Immortal Manor, a true celestial technique.

"Oh?" Yun Xiao glanced, his Heaven Burial Sword Soul weaving through mysterious trajectories. As the sword vibrated, waves of wind blossomed upon it, instantly creating an even larger wind tunnel.

The two mighty Typhoon Piercers clashed like behemoth storms biting at each other!

"What?" Lu Changfeng reeled, eyes widening.

"Don't worry. There's still more surprises to come!" Yun Xiao scoffed coldly.

Spinning the violet Runic Umbrella with one hand, Yun Xiao blocked the crushing forces of the giant iceberg and guardian spirit. Meanwhile, the other hand wielded the Heaven Burial Sword Soul to overpower Lu Changfeng!

BOOM! Lu Changfeng's Typhoon Piercer collapsed, and he was flung back! His Arbiter armor was torn asunder as he slammed hard into the ground.

"W-what the hell is this power…?"

Lu Changfeng's face paled. "Jiang…"

Then, he looked up, only to see Yun Xiao already clashing with Jiang Lanyue.

"No good! If we die here, none of the crimes this kid committed will come to light!"

At that moment, Lu Changfeng truly felt fear. Previously, he had scorned Jiang Lanyue's cowardice, but now, witnessing his companion's desperate fight, he gritted his teeth and turned to flee!

"Lu Changfeng!" This scene nearly drove Jiang Lanyue to spit blood in fury.

"Focus on the fight."

Suddenly, an icy voice echoed from behind.

Jiang Lanyue's spine chilled abruptly; he spun around, the Silver Moon Sigil coalescing in his hand. But when he turned, only the spinning Runic Umbrella was behind him!

"Eh?" As Jiang Lanyue spun back in horror, an azure sword ripped through the air, piercing his eye and exiting the other side! "Ahh!! You…!"

With a squelch, Yun Xiao swiftly withdrew his Sword Soul, and Jiang Lanyue slowly knelt down.

A prospective Arbiter Commander was slain just like that!

As Yun Xiao withdrew the sword, he didn't pause; he sped off on his six-foot Sovereign Sword.

"The maze! Lu Qian, quickly remove the maze!" Not realizing until he fled, Lu Changfeng almost fainted from anger.

Why was the maze still there? He plunged into it, utterly losing his way.

In the next instant, Yun Xiao appeared behind him, his gaze cold.

"L-let’s talk this out peacefully." Lu Changfeng shivered all over, quickly saying, "Lu Yao, I can give you anything, we have no quarrels or grievances! Lu Qian is the real murderer, she did it for a True Immortal Jade Mine!"

"What did you just call me?" Yun Xiao asked.

".." Lu Changfeng froze.

"Both you and I know what happened to the real Lu Yao. The cruelty of the Immortal path crushed his dreams, I assumed his identity to seek justice. The moment I saw you, You were a dead man!" Yun Xiao said.

"No, no, no!" Lu Changfeng's face was a mask of misery, about to say more, but Yun Xiao made his move!

BOOM! His Runic Umbrella fell from the sky like a giant shield, pinning Lu Changfeng’s guardian spirit, while his Flying Sword, glittering with the fire of azure stars, tore through the heavens in a stroke of rage!

"Lu Yao!" Yun Xiao called out his name, then declared with satisfaction, "You can rest now."

With a thrust, Lu Changfeng's body shuddered thrice in succession. Only his right eye remained, filled with fear and despair as he gazed at Yun Xiao, then slowly knelt down.

Yun Xiao did not spare him a glance; his figure flashed, and he returned to the valley.

"L-Lu Yao..." Sun Xiaoqi collapsed to the ground in a panic, staring at the young man.

Yun Xiao's Arbiter armor was stained with too much blood, his once handsome face suddenly resembling the grim reaper.

"Stay put here, don't go anywhere, understand?" Yun Xiao said.

"I understand! I understand!" Sun Xiaoqi nodded hastily.

Yun Xiao then smiled gently, "When we return to Sky Soaring City, I’ll treat you to a feast at the Drunken Immortal Tavern."

"Okay..." Sun Xiaoqi sobbed.

Yun Xiao looked into the distance and said, "Tonight, at the gates of Sangju City, 13 bodies will hang."

"And one of them is me? Oh..." Sun Xiaoqi spasmed with fright. Wasn’t he just offering a feast? Why count her among them! She was still crying when she suddenly realized, Yun Xiao had disappeared.

?ι══????????══ι?

Atop a high peak…

"Huh?" Lu Qian had been focusing intently on the green compass, fearful of missing anyone breaking into the formation.

After a long moment, she finally noticed someone breaking out from inside!

She quickly controlled the formation to project the scene from that segment of the maze. The images on the compass were blurry, only faintly showing Lu Changfeng entering with another person in pursuit.

The two started fighting!

"What's happening?" Lu Qian's expression changed; this was completely off-plan.

"Could something have gone wrong in the valley?"

With that thought, she couldn’t stay put any longer and hurried towards the valley.

However, she had to keep an eye on the compass to prevent anyone from entering from the outside, so she moved slowly. As she ran, a white figure suddenly dropped in front of her!

It was a young man in blood-stained Arbiter armor, holding an azure long sword and smiling at Lu Qian, "Cousin, I hear you own a mine?"
