Peerless Taoist

He sat on the throne and said indifferently, "All of you have to understand that if you join Great Qin today, you will be Great Qin's people from now on."    

"Great Qin can tolerate weaklings and evildoers, but it will never tolerate traitors. If you have the intention to rebel, I will not let anyone go."    

After saying that, Lu Yu stared at the few Family Heads present.    

The expressions of the few Family Heads changed drastically. They felt Lu Yu's sharp gaze and immediately replied, "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this..."    

Lu Yu did not waste time with them and raised his hand to point at them.    

With a bang, their bodies exploded, and blood filled the air as they evaporated!    

The surrounding people quickly dodged and looked at Lu Yu with fear in their eyes.    

With just a single finger, he killed all of the Family Heads. What kind of terrifying power was this!    

They could not even see how Lu Yu had done it, and the few Family Heads were already dead.    

"These people have the Lu Family's brand on them. Do they think they can fool me?"    

Lu Yu's gaze was cold, "Using Great Qin's National Aura to secretly defect to the enemy, this kind of traitor deserves to die ten thousand times."    

After that, Lu Yu called Zhong Wanli over, "Record the names of these families. Your Zhong Family will send people to exterminate them."    

Although they were in the City Lord's Hall, everyone could smell the aura of a battlefield.    

Lu Yu's actions had subdued everyone. These important figures of the Kunlun Secret Realm finally knew how terrifying this young man was. They all knelt on the ground and expressed their submission.    

Lu Yu called over Zhao Feihong and said, "This is the descendant of the Ying Family. His body is flowing with the blood of the Human Emperor. He is also my disciple. I will make him the new Dragon City King."    

"Master..." Zhao Feihong was shocked.    

He had heard countless legends about the Dragon City King since he was young.    

In the Kunlun 19 counties, the Dragon City King was the master of everything in the world. Zhao Feihong would never have thought that he would one day become the new Dragon City King.    

"One day, you will have to face these things. I have pushed you out now, so you must become the focus of everyone's attention. Although the strong will be destroyed by the strong, you will not be able to become a true expert without experiencing the hardships."    

Lu Yu stroked Zhao Feihong's head and said softly.    

"I know, Master."    

Zhao Feihong nodded. The panic on his face gradually disappeared.    

This was a very mature child. He had the rationality and calmness that children of his age did not have. Even in such a situation, he quickly adapted.    

"Greetings, Dragon City King!"    

With a family, they immediately expressed their goodwill to Zhao Feihong.    

To many experts present, Zhao Feihong's cultivation level was not worth mentioning at all.    

However, what they took a fancy to was Zhao Feihong's identity. There was no need to mention the Dragon City King, and Zhao Feihong was even Lu Yu's disciple. This was a disciple of the Son of Heaven, and his status was noble. There was no harm in getting on such a noble family.    

"This is my personal sword, please accept it, Dragon City King."    

"This is the Fire Expelling Pearl, which can resist all kinds of flames in the world."    

...    

One by one, exquisite gifts were sent to Zhao Feihong.    

Zhao Feihong, who had been living in the small mountain village, had never seen these things before. His eyes quickly became misty.    

However, Zhao Feihong turned around and glanced at Lu Yu. Seeing that his Master did not say anything, Zhao Feihong mustered up his courage and began to talk to these experts, accepting all the gifts calmly.    

During this process, Zhao Feihong remembered the names of every expert and comforted them that if he became the Dragon City King, he would definitely repay the power of these people in the future.    

Lu Yu did not teach these words, but Zhao Feihong had been studying hard every day and reading a lot of books. He naturally knew how to deal with these matters.    

That night, the county governor held another grand feast.    

Lu Yu was not interested in such a feast, but he still came and let Zhao Feihong sit beside him.    

Lu Yu was quite concerned about this disciple.    

Back then, the Human Emperor had given Lu Yu a great favor. Now, Lu Yu had repaid this favor with the Human Emperor's bloodline.    

Lu Yu wanted to let this child see as many things as possible.    

Especially these Family Heads and County Governors, they were all senior elders who had been in the Kunlun Secret Realm for many years. They had a huge network of connections, and it would be quite helpful for Zhao Feihong's rule in the future if they could get on good terms with these people.    

During the banquet, many people were drinking and chatting, and many of them had red faces.    

Especially the Zhong Family, they had long ago formed enmity with the Lu Family, so there would definitely be a battle between them. Now that they had gotten on good terms with a peerless expert like Lu Yu, they could be said to have been saved from the jaws of death, so they were naturally overjoyed.    

As the banquet was still going on, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a servant rushed in with a hurried expression.    

"Sir! Outside, outside..."    

That servant was obviously frightened, his face was pale, and his lips were trembling. He could not even complete a sentence.    

The County Governor immediately stood up in anger, and was about to berate him when Lu Yu stopped him.    

"Let's go take a look." Lu Yu frowned.    

He suddenly sensed an ice-cold and evil aura coming from outside the county city. It was bone-chillingly cold and evil.    

Everyone stood up, and they also felt that something was amiss.    

Pushing open the window, they saw that in the dark night outside the county city, there was suddenly a gust of chilly wind. A blood-colored moon hung in the air, emitting a shocking dark red color, as if it was soaked in blood.    

Boom!    

Just as everyone opened the door and windows, a monstrous aura of coldness erupted. Everyone felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave.    

"What's... going on?" someone muttered to himself.    

Zhong Wanli suddenly said in a deep voice, "Could it be that the Ghost Tide that erupts once every thousand years has come?"    

Hearing the word "ghost tide", everyone's expression changed drastically. They thought of something that they did not want to mention.    

Lu Yu looked at the blood-colored moon in the sky and looked at Zhong Wanli. "What is the Ghost Tide?"    

"At the beginning of the ancient times, there was a Ghost Realm under the Kunlun Secret Realm. After that, the suppression loosened, and evil spirits would appear every hundred years, causing chaos in the mortal world. The Kunlun Region was rebuilt once every thousand years until today."    

Zhong Wanli said, "The last time, the Ying Clan mobilized their entire clan to resist the evil spirits. Many of the Ying Clan's experts died in the hands of the evil spirits, which gave the Lu family an opportunity to take over..."    

He was narrating a secret story. Many people revealed shocked expressions. They did not know about this matter.    

No one spoke anymore. The surging Yin Qi enveloped the entire county city from all directions.    

In the void, countless ferocious and terrifying figures appeared. They bared their fangs and brandished their claws. Their faces were ferocious, as if they were evil spirits that had been released from their cages. They were approaching the county city.
