Peerless Taoist

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man in white walking over in the air. He had a graceful demeanor, as if he was a sword immortal from the heavens.    

"Who are you?"    

The white-robed cultivators of the Ancient Brilliance Shrine all had puzzled expressions on their faces.    

The leading High Priest of the Ancient Brilliance Shrine was furious. The blade in his hand was a good magic treasure, but it was destroyed by Lu Yu with a flick of his finger, shattering it into pieces that scattered in the wind.    

"Li Daoyi, not bad. You actually found an external helper. Why don't you hand over all of your people? We can take them all in one fell swoop!"    

The High Priest walked forward, not even looking at Lu Yu as he sneered.    

He had already guessed that Lu Yu was likely a reinforcement that the Lingxiao Sect had invited. After all, the Lingxiao Sect had been rooted here for so long, and it was inevitable that some people would come to help the Lingxiao Sect for their own sake.    

However, the High Priest suddenly realized that the expressions of Li Daoyi and the others were not quite right.    

There was no nervousness, no despair, only joy as if they had just survived a desperate situation. It was as if they were walking in a desert and suddenly saw an oasis.    

"Lu Yu, you're here!" The Lingxiao Sect's Master, Li Daoyi, was extremely excited, and his voice was trembling.    

"En, I'm fine."    

Lu Yu smiled faintly, then turned his head and looked at the white-robed High Priest. "How did you know that I wouldn't care about this place?"    

"Emperor of Great Qin, Lu Yu!"    

At this moment, the High Priest finally knew who the person in front of him was.    

His entire body trembled, and his mind went blank. A black screen seemed to appear in front of his eyes, and his head felt as if it was about to explode. An intense pain swept through his entire body, and at the same time, he felt endless despair.    

"Why? Can't you speak?"    

Lu Yu's originally smiling face suddenly became serious. "I am asking you a question!"    

Boom!    

It was like a bolt of lightning that suddenly struck the High Priest's chest.    

The High Priest felt his entire body tremble, and the fear in his heart was dug out. In an instant, he lost consciousness.    

"I, I, I..."    

The High Priest wanted to say something, but he couldn't even do it. His entire body trembled, and he suddenly fell to the ground, not moving at all.    

He was actually scared to death.    

This was not because his mental strength was not strong, but because Lu Yu's words contained a soul attack. The instant Lu Yu spoke, the sound wave contained a strong energy, and it ruthlessly crushed the High Priest's soul.    

In the time it took to say a single word, the High Priest had already been scared to death.    

The other cultivators of Ancient Brilliance Shrine were all stunned on the spot, looking at everything in front of them with fear.    

Emperor of Great Qin?    

Shouldn't he be far away in Great Qin? Why would he appear here?    

"You are also from the Ancient Brilliance Shrine?" Lu Yu swept his gaze across the surroundings and took in everyone.    

Those cultivators from the Ancient Brilliance Shrine who were arrogant before were all silent when they were swept by Lu Yu's gaze. It was as if their bodies had been swept by a sharp sword, and they immediately started to feel at a loss.    

"You also know that Lingxiao Sect is related to me, but you dare to besiege Lingxiao Sect. Do you not respect me?"    

Lu Yu suddenly shouted coldly.    

His forceful voice was like a thunderclap that swept across everyone's hearts in an instant.    

Clang! Clang!    

The cultivators who were arrogant just now all dropped their weapons in their hands, trembling with fear.    

Their courage had completely dissipated, leaving only deep fear in their hearts.    

"Even if this sect has nothing to do with me, Lu Yu, you and the Puppet Imperial Court colluded with each other and helped the tyrant. Killing people as you wish is also a sin. I let him go back then, and I thought that he would be able to enter the Divine Path in peace. I didn't expect him to be so weak."    

Lu Yu's gaze swept across the Ancient Brilliance Shrine and said indifferently, "You can all commit suicide."    

A powerful soul force instantly attacked in all directions.    

Lu Yu did not use any spells. He only acted on behalf of the heavens, and every word and action he made conformed to the Heavenly Dao.    

Lu Yu was not in the Heavenly Realm, but the ability he possessed was close to the Heavenly Realm. Such a mental attack was not something that these people could resist.    

"I have sinned deeply, I shouldn't have helped the tyrant …"    

Before many people died, their minds were like a kaleidoscope, recalling everything that they had done in the past.    

They were filled with grief and tears, but unfortunately, they were powerless to resist.    

Puchi! Puchi!    

Very quickly, these people picked up the weapons on the ground and stabbed them into their own necks. In an instant, they fell to the ground and died.    

In the blink of an eye, there were no more people from the Ancient Brilliance Shrine in the entire Lingxiao Sect.    

The smell of blood drifted out from the wind. At this moment, even the people of Lingxiao Sect could feel a trace of chilliness.    

"They died just like that?"    

After a long time, Li Daoyi said in disbelief.    

If Lu Yu had attacked and killed all of them, perhaps the crowd would not have been shocked.    

But Lu Yu had not done anything from the beginning to the end.    

First, the High Priest was scared to death, and then those emissaries from the Shrines committed suicide one after another.    

It was as if the people in front of him were not worth Lu Yu's action.    

"Master Li, Elder Xing, Divine Master, I'm sorry that I came late." Lu Yu said indifferently.    

Li Daoyi hurriedly said, "You have a lot of work to do. For you to be able to come to our place, Lingxiao Sect is already a glorious place."    

When Lu Yu became the Human Emperor, the shadow appeared in the Myriad Realms, and many people had seen it.    

Of course, Li Daoyi had also seen Lu Yu's shadow and understood that Lu Yu's current status was no longer the same as before. He was now a true Human Emperor.    

Therefore, Li Daoyi's attitude was quite cautious, as if he was treating a senior expert. He was deeply afraid that if he was not careful, he would anger Lu Yu.    

Lu Yu smiled faintly, "No need to be nervous. Everyone here is my senior. It is only right that I help you."    

Only then did many people regain their senses and gradually relax.    

It seemed that Lu Yu was still the same Lu Yu, and he had not changed at all.    

Waves of crying voices came from the surroundings. Many disciples threw themselves beside the corpses and wailed.    

Many of the majestic palaces and pavilions of Lingxiao Sect had been burned by the fire, turning into thick black smoke that pierced into the clouds. The surroundings were in a complete mess.    

"Ever since the new emperor was appointed, the government has been in chaos. The people of Penglai are above the imperial court, and those officials have become Penglai's lackeys."    

Li Daoyi sighed and said, "Those like Gu Huangshen, who have directly joined the government, can still survive. And those like us, the Lingxiao Sect, will be suppressed immediately."    

"I never thought that they would dare to be so bold and openly destroy a sect. Aren't they afraid that the world will be in chaos?"
