"Don't let your Shu Mountain bully people too far!"
"We respect you, but we are not afraid of you."
"Even if Lu Ziyin's master had come, he would not have demanded to search our Xiaoyao Sect outright."
"We of Five Peaks Mountain are not people to be trampled and humiliated at will. Shu Mountain may be strong, but there is no need for such insults!"
The one shouting the loudest was the Red Rock Mountain sect leader of Five Peaks Mountain.
When they had gone to seize the Immortal Cloud Sect, his Red Rock Mountain branch had been the most proactive of all.
He had dispatched every disciple, terrified they might be too slow to snatch their share.
"You are slandering us!"
"Get lost!!"
"..."
Lu Ziyin's brow twitched, and his hand pressed down on a corner of the tea table.
The pressure in the surroundings immediately sank, and his expression darkened.
The Xiaoyao Sect and Five Peaks Mountain cultivators who had been chattering without pause fell silent at once.
Everyone watched Lu Ziyin nervously.
They dared speak to Lu Ziyin this way only because they believed that, as a Shu Mountain Peak Master, his moral standards were high and he would not act rashly.
Lu Ziyin rose to his feet, and everyone inwardly jolted, afraid that he would make a move.
Fortunately, it was only a false alarm. With a dark expression, Lu Ziyin left the place.
Everyone stared after Lu Ziyin's retreating back and let out a heavy sigh of relief.
Li Xuanxiao silently followed behind him.
The corners of Fox Face's mouth curled up, his face still bearing a smile that seemed to see through everything.
Shu Mountain, how would you handle your fairness and justice now?
Fox Face watched Lu Ziyin with great interest.
