Chapter 1597: Maintaining His Arrogance; A New Beginning in the Great Void

Zhang He placed great importance on the Dark Guards. Due to the battle with the Silver Guards, the Dark Guards had suffered many casualties. During the battle at Shanyan’s Pillar of Destruction, the Dark Guards had expended a lot of effort.

Li Chun and Zhang He quickly arrived at the Dark Hall, the base of the Dark Guards.

At this moment, the other Dark Guards were giving explanations to the newcomers. When they saw the duo approaching, they bowed and called out, “Greetings, Commander Zhang.”

Zhang He, as the Commander of Xuanyi Palace, was also the leader of the Dark Guards. He had the highest authority in the Dark Hall, and Li Chun helped him to manage the Dark Hall.

Li Chun’s role was more logistical in the Dark Hall.

Usually, missions were all issued by Zhang He.

Zhang He stood with his hands on his back as swept his gaze across the Dark Guards and said, “No need for formalities.”

Li Chun pointed at the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion, who were standing at the side, and said, “They’re the new Dark Guards.”

The people of the Evil Sky Pavilion nodded at Zhang He.

Zhang He asked, “Have you selected the captain for the team of newcomers?”

“Yes. It’s him,” Li Chun said as he gestured at Lu Zhou.

Zhang He sized Lu Zhou up.

Lu Zhou looked mature and steady; his aura and bearing were extraordinary as well. His air was one that belonged to those who had been in a high position for a long time. With one hand hanging by his side and the other placed on his back, he looked ahead with the attitude of someone looking down on the world from high above. In the eyes of the people from the Great Void, this kind of posture was clearly one that asked for a beating.

Lu Zhou maintained this posture because it was not only natural to him but also because of… other reasons.

Zhang He did not seem to care. Instead, he asked, “How should I address you?”

Lu Zhou met Zhang He’s gaze and replied, “My surname is Lu.”

“From now on, you’re the captain of the newcomers. Are you willing?” Zhang He asked.

Instead of replying, Lu Zhou asked, “Are you the Commander of Xuanyi Palace?”

“That’s right,” Zhang He replied.

At this moment, Li Chun hurriedly reminded Lu Zhou, “Brother Lu, when you face Commander Zhang, you have to be more polite.”

Zhang He raised his hand and said, “This is a small matter. As long as you can contribute to Xuanyi Palace, nothing is important.”

Li Chun smiled and said, “As expected of the Commander of our Xuanyi Palace. You’re so magnanimous that it’s admirable.”

After that, Lu Zhou pointed at the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion and said, “These people naturally belong to me.”

Without missing a beat, Zhang He smiled and said, “And you… belong to me.”

The people of the Evil Sky Pavilion: “…”

The people of the Evil Sky Pavilion looked at Lu Zhou worriedly. If they were in any of the nine domains, they would be the first to rush up and kill Zhang He. After all, how could Zhang He speak to their Pavilion Master in such a manner? Alas, they were in the Great Void now; they had to keep a low profile and could not be too ostentatious. In any case, whether or not to tolerate Zhang He, it all depended on the Pavilion Master in the end.

However, was tolerance something the Evil Sky Pavilion practiced? Of course, not!

Lu Zhou had kept a low profile earlier in order to enter the Great Void. Now, his goal had been achieved. The Great Void was so big; it was not necessary for him to stay in Xuanyi Palace. Why should he care about Zhang He? Hence, he placed his hands on his back and asked expressionlessly, “Are you worthy?”

Li Chun: “?”

Zhang He frowned.

The temperature in the surroundings plummeted immediately.

Li Chun’s eyes widened slightly in surprise as he thought to himself, ‘It seems like my reminders are useless! You’re still putting on airs. Can you survive in the Great Void this way?’

Zhang He called out, “Li Chun.”

“What are your orders, Commander Zhang?”

“Teach him the rules of Xuanyi Palace,” Zhang He said with a scoff. Then, with his hands on his back, he turned to leave. He had just taken two steps when he suddenly turned and said, “During my next visit, I hope he’ll behave appropriately.”

Li Chun: “???”

‘Why is this on me now?!’

Lu Zhou looked at Li Chun and asked expressionlessly, “Do you think you’re capable of teaching me?”

“This…” Li Chun really did not want to fight. He knew that Lu Zhou’s cultivation was not low, but if he did not do something, he would definitely offend Zhang He.

Before Li Chun could act, Zhang He scoffed and flashed. His speed was so fast that the others from the Evil Sky Pavilion could not react at all.

Although Zhang He’s control over time and space was better than the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion, it was still lower than Lu Zhou’s. In Lu Zhou’s eyes, Zhang He’s speed was normal; there was not much change at all. He could even clearly see the angry expression on Zhang He’s face. Just when Zhang He arrived in front of him, he suddenly attacked.

When their attacks collided, the tyrannical power of the Dao rippled out. At the same time, space began to ripple in the sky above the Dark Hall.

At the same time, Emperor Xuanyi, who was resting in the distant great hall, frowned slightly and looked outside.

Zhang He, who thought he could teach Lu Zhou a lesson with just a move, looked at Lu Zhou in shock after he felt the surging power of Lu Zhou’s attack. He asked, “You managed to block my attack?”

“Why not?” Lu Zhou said nonchalantly.

“Do you know that you’re in Xuanyi Palace’s Dark Hall?” Zhang He reminded Lu Zhou solemnly. Would Xuanyi Palace have any dignity left if a newcomer was allowed to behave so impudently?

“Where’s Xuanyi?” Lu Zhou forgo any title and directly called out Xuanyi’s name.

Li Chun was shocked; he did not expect this at all. He thought that Lu Zhou’s arrogance truly knew no bounds.

“You’ll have to see if you’re worthy of meeting His Majesty! You…”

Bang!

Before Zhang He could finish his sentence, a surging power swept out. Following that, he was pushed almost 40 feet back. He looked at Lu Zhou, who was standing calmly, in shock. He asked, uncertain, “Are you a Great Dao Saint?”

Zhang He had only intended to discipline the newcomer so he did not use his full strength. Nonetheless, he was surprised the newcomer’s attack caused his arm to feel a little numb. Based on the attack, the newcomer was at least a Great Dao Saint.

At this moment, a figure appeared in the sky.

“Zhang He, Li Chun.”

Zhang He and Li Chun raised their heads at the same time. When they saw Xuanyi, they bowed immediately. “Greetings, Your Majesty.”

The Dark Guards bowed as well.

“What’s the commotion all about?” Xuanyi asked as he looked around.

“It’s just a small matter. The newcomers had just arrived so they need time to adapt to the rules here,” Zhang He replied.

Xuanyi nodded before he looked at the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion. Finally, his gaze rested on Lu Zhou, who possessed the most extraordinary aura.

Lu Zhou looked at Xuanyi as well. There were reasons Lu Zhou previously decided to join Xuanyi Palace, but the others were unaware of them. He was too lazy to explain. There were many things that he could only think about and do on his own. He stared at Xuanyi unblinkingly as he said indifferently, “After 100,000 years, you finally fulfilled your wish and managed to become a divine king.”

“Hm?”

Lu Zhou continued to say, “After 100,000 years, you’re no longer the crying child you once were. I’m very pleased.”

Li Chun felt truly speechless at this moment. He had no words to describe Lu Zhou’s arrogance. To speak to the Master of Xuanyi Palace in such a manner, Lu Zhou was the most arrogant newcomer he had ever met in his life. He remained quiet and did not intend to interfere. With Xuanyi here, the newcomer would naturally suffer for his arrogance.

Zhang He, unlike Li Chun who decided to remain invisible, said in a deep voice, “Impudent.”

Buzz!

Zhang He struck again.

The space rippled.

Zhang He thought that Lu Zhou had made a move when the space rippled above him. However, he watched in shock as his attack was easily neutralized by the from above.

Boom!

Following that, Zhang He was sent flying by a powerful spatial power. While he was sent flying, his mind was blank. Only one word appeared in his mind: why?

The Dark Guards were also confused. They wondered if Xuan Yi had mistakenly attacked the wrong person.

“Your Majesty?!” Zhang He, who finally regained his footing, looked at Xuanyi in confusion. He suppressed the surging qi and blood in his body and asked, “Why?”

Xuanyi’s expression was only slightly unnatural as he said, “Fights are forbidden among the Dark Guards. I’ll punish you to reflect on your mistakes for three days.”

“Huh?” Zhang He was truly confused. However, seeing the solemn expression on Xuanyi’s face, he could only say in a low voice, “Yes, Your Majesty.”

At the same time, Zhang He thought to himself, ‘Even I was punished. This newcomer would have a broken leg at least.’

Xuanyi turned to Lu Zhou before he continued to say, “Your cultivation is not bad. I have always appreciated talents. Would you like to chat with me at the great hall?”

Zhang He: “???”

Li Chun: “???”

The people of the Evil Sky Pavilion: “???”

The Dark Guards: “???”
