In the grand hall, Lu Ye returned bloodied, Xiao Xinghe breathed a sigh of relief, and the always seated Liew Yuemei suddenly stood up with her hand on the desk, causing it to split into pieces as spirit force surged.
Qi Wu, who stayed behind, had his eye twitch violently, staring at the blood-soaked Lu Ye, unable to believe his eyes, feeling a sense of fear.
Originally, he didn't pay much attention to Lu Ye, as the gap in their cultivation was clear. Typically, fighting across realms meant crossing one or two minor levels. He was three levels above Lu Ye, and he himself was capable of fighting across levels.
Thus, he was utterly confident that he could defeat Lu Ye, even kill him.
He was somewhat dissatisfied with Liew Yuemei intervening at the crucial moment, replacing him with Chen Ke for the fight to the death with Lu Yiye, feeling the Lord Mountain Pass Chief underestimated him.
But the result...
The combat ended, Lu Yiye returned, Chen Ke was nowhere to be seen.
