Martial Emperor Reborn(Completed) - C919 Crisis
C919 Crisis
As for Lin Long, Lu Zhiyi had a high chance of entering the main altar, so, Lu Zhiyi was only worried for his own daughter, Lu Lingling.
Of course, he was also worried about Lin Long, since he had just came into contact with the devil arts, and it would be dangerous if he met with the Shen-Yi-tang and the other people from the enemy branch guilds.
Very quickly, the people who were heading to Eagle Hall to participate, and the first three people to compete were Lin Long and Lu Lingling.
The three of them had disappointed Lu Zhiyi because they were defeated so easily and cleanly. Furthermore, looking at the strength they had displayed, it was unlikely for them to enter the main stage.
Right now, the rest of the Eagle Hall could only place their hopes on Lin Long and Lu Lingling.
Very quickly, it was Lu Lingling’s turn. Lu Lingling was the first to walk onto the stage.
After seeing Lu Lingling’s opponent, Lu Zhiyi’s expression immediately became gloomy, because her opponent was actually someone from the Shen-Yi-tang, and one that was very strong as well.
His opponent was decided by drawing lots, but such a coincidence made Lu Zhiyi feel that something was amiss. He felt that the judge on the stage earlier had done something.
Thus, he directly stood up and said to the three Elders, “Three Elders, I feel that there was something fishy about the drawing of lots just now. How could my disciple coincidentally draw an opponent like this?”
The opponent was too strong and he was from the Shen-Yi-tang. This worried Lu Zhiyi.
As soon as Lu Zhiyi finished speaking, the elder in charge of drawing lots immediately became gloomy and gloomy.
“Could it be that you think that this elder is faking it?” He said this coldly.
“Elder Feng, this subordinate only thinks that this is too much of a coincidence.” The other party’s identity, status, and strength were all over the place, so Lu Zhiyi did not dare to directly challenge him, and could only say this.
“There are too many coincidences in this world, there’s no such thing as coincidences or books, so there’s nothing I can do about it.” The Elder Feng said with a dignified tone.
In fact, he was really putting on an act. However, even if others knew that this was the case, he still had to act righteously. He did not want others to catch him off guard when it came to words.
“Hall Master Lu, some coincidences might happen, the only thing we can do is to blame Lu Lingling’s bad luck, of course, this isn’t a life and death battle, it’s just a competition, don’t worry.”
“Indeed. Pavilion Master Lu, you don’t have to worry about it. It isn’t as though a single fight will determine your fate.”
The other two Elders said this as well.
Listening to the few of them talk like this, what else could Lu Zhiyi do? He could only silently hate the people of Shen-Yi-tang for bribing that Elder Feng.
“Alright, let the match begin.” Following the words of an elder, the match between Lu Lingling and the other party officially began.
“Junior Sister Lu, martial arts have no eyes. You have to be careful.” The person opposite Lu Lingling laughed.
As he spoke, he activated his devil arts and was instantly covered by the rolling black qi.
Normally, when a person used a demonic art, they would do so in such a manner. Therefore, it wasn’t something that was out of the ordinary.
The next moment, all those who were looking at him revealed expressions of surprise. This was because his body was actually burning with a flame that resembled a black bone chain. The flame continuously writhed around his body, which was extremely strange.
“This is the Blackbone Chains’ flame!”
“I heard that Demonic Sect Disciple obtained this kind of spirit fire, but I never expected that he actually obtained it. It is truly surprising.”
“The Shen-Yi-tang has really hidden it well, to actually only show it in this kind of competition.”
“With this Abyssal Bone Chain Flame, it’s simply impossible for Lu Lingling to win.”
When they saw the spirit flames on the man from the Shen-Yi-tang, the crowd was shocked. In the midst of such surprised sounds, no one thought too highly of Lu Lingling.
At this time, Lu Zhiyi’s brows were knitted even more tightly, as he had a bad premonition.
As for Lu Lingling, who was on the stage, he was incomparably shocked.
This was because just in terms of fame, her Spirit Fire was already far inferior to his.
However, admitting defeat before such a competition was not allowed, so she could only brace herself and ignite her spirit fire.
All of a sudden, she made her move. For a moment, demon aura mixed with countless skulls roared towards her opponent.
Just as they were about to hit their target, they suddenly formed another wall. It was the Demon Wall of Skeletons.
Lu Lingling had used her strongest ability from the start, just to catch the opponent off guard.
An ordinary person would not have been caught unprepared by such an attack, but her opponent simply smiled proudly. The moment the Demon Wall of Skeletons attacked, his hand moved, and the black bone bracelet on his body immediately flew towards the Demon Wall of Skeletons.
In that instant, the originally seemingly ordinary black bone chain erupted with a powerful energy.
With a “boom”, the seemingly invincible Demon Wall of Skeletons was directly destroyed by the black bone chain.
Not only that, the Darkbone Chains also swept towards Lu Lingling with its remaining power.
At this time, Lu Lingling didn’t have any strength to fight back anymore. She could only watch as the Blackbone Chains swept towards her.
Right at this moment, a human figure suddenly shot in front of Lu Lingling, and struck out with his palm. In the nick of time, the palm strike landed on the black bone chain.
It was also because of this that Lu Lingling was able to avoid being injured by the Blackbone Chains.
When the figure landed, everyone looked up and realised he was Lu Zhiyi.
Seeing Lu Zhiyi intervene, the people of Shen-Yi-tang were dissatisfied.
“Three elders, Hall Master Lu has violated the rules of the main altar by publicly interfering in the competition between the disciples. His crimes are unforgivable!”
“Three clan elders, we strongly request that the qualifications of the Eagle Hall to compete be revoked, and they can return home!”
“You are looking down on the rules of our Holy Gate! Elders, you cannot let this go so easily!”
Hearing this, Lu Zhiyi’s face ashened. However, Lu Lingling was his daughter, how could he bear to let Lu Lingling be injured by the other party’s attack? It had to be known that with the Dark Bone Chains’ attack just now, Lu Lingling’s hand would definitely not be able to defend against it.
“Everyone, don’t be impatient!” An elder said to Shen-Yi-tang and the rest with a dark expression.
The Eagle Hall was in danger this time. Some of the neutral individuals might have thought that it was because they had been disqualified from the competition.
Although they could tell that the people of the Shen-Yi-tang harbored malicious intent, the other party was only permitted by the rules, so they would not be punished at all.
Lu Zhiyi’s actions were different, it completely went against the rules of the main altar, even if it was a righteous action, he would still be punished.
Upon hearing the elder’s words, everyone quieted down, waiting to see what he would say.
As for Lu Zhiyi, he was still relatively calm. He immediately spoke to a disciple behind him, “Quickly go find Elder Lu and tell him about this.”
Elder Lu was also in the training grounds today, but he was not here.
After the disciple received his order, he quickly went to find the Elder Lu.
Before the three elders could come to a conclusion, that disciple had already hurried back. But when they saw that he was alone, the faces of everyone from the Eagle Hall turned ugly.
“What’s going on? Why didn’t Elder Lu come with us?” Lu Zhiyi said anxiously.
“Elder Lu said he’s busy.” The disciple said with an ugly expression.
Hearing this, the people from the Shen-Yi-tang were naturally more arrogant.
Elder Lu was not free, how could this be possible? Lu Zhiyi could tell at a glance that the other party was only finding an excuse.
Was it because of that? Lu Zhiyi quickly understood the reason.
After Lu Zizhen failed in seizing the spirit fire from the secret realm, the Elder Lu had sent people over to ask if Lu Zhiyi had leaked it.
Lu Zhiyi naturally denied that he had leaked it. Although the possibility of Lu Zhiyi leaking it was very small, but Elder Lu still started to blame Lu Zhiyi in the end.
Knowing that Elder Lu would never help him, Lu Zhiyi could only sigh helplessly.
At this moment, the three Elders came to a conclusion.
“In view of Pavilion Master Lu’s actions and the fact that the disciples under Pavilion Master Lu’s tutelage have not been practicing well, we have decided to report to the Vice Sect Leader to disqualify Eagle Hall for the next two rounds of the competition!” One of the Elders said.
He would be disqualified from the next two rounds of competition! Hearing this, the faces of the Eagle Hall disciples that came with Lu Zhiyi immediately became ugly.
This was undoubtedly cutting off their chance to enter the main stage in the future.
Although they still had to report this to the vice head, those who were familiar with the Devil Sect’s rules knew that this would be the equivalent of the outcome.
Of course, if Lu Zhiyi had any tricks up his sleeve, he could still change the result. But the problem was that the Elder Lu that Lu Zhiyi relied on the most on ignored him, so what ability did Lu Zhiyi have to change the result?
In other words, this was the final result.
They had unsightly expressions, and Lu Zhiyi’s was naturally unsightly as well. Because at this moment, who among them was talented enough to still join their Eagle Hall?
This way, their Eagle Hall would be in a state of decline for at least a few years.
But what made him pleased was that the three elders did not revoke his qualification, if not, Lu Lingling and her would have no hope of entering the main stage.
When this result came out, the people of Shen-Yi-tang immediately expressed their dissatisfaction.
“Three clan elders, this is out of the question. The people from the Eagle Hall should be disqualified this time.”
The elder’s face darkened, “The results of the disposal have been announced. We will report it to the vice head. If you have any objections, you can go to the vice head.”
“If anyone goes on and on, don’t blame us for being merciless!” Another elder said.
As for the elder who had helped them cheat, he didn’t say anything. He had already helped them more than enough. If they continued to speak, then it would not be good.
Moreover, his authority was not greater than the two people beside him.
