Yao Wan Gui knew Lu Chuan fairly well. Of course, that knowledge was limited to what Lu Chuan had allowed everyone to see.
Back in the Demon Fire Space, Yao Wan Gui had witnessed Lu Chuan's Five-Star Dou Sheng cultivation, making him the strongest among the seven of them.
If that had been all, Yao Wan Gui would not have feared him so greatly.
It was only after the battle at Peak of Fallen that Yao Wan Gui truly became afraid of Lu Chuan.
In that climactic battle, Soul Hall Master Hun Miesheng had unleashed the strength of a mid-stage Five-Star Dou Sheng and carried a sub-flame of the Nihility Devouring Flame, yet he had still been directly slain by Lu Chuan.
Furthermore, at the final moment, Lu Chuan had taken a palm strike from Hun Qianmo, a Six-Star Dou Sheng, head-on and emerged unharmed, merely taking a single step back.
How could Yao Wan Gui not fear an expert capable of killing Hun Miesheng and forcing Hun Qianmo to retreat with his people? He already understood that Lu Chuan now possessed a status comparable to that of the Yao Clan's Clan Leader.
"Hehe, Demon Saint, your arrival at our Yao Clan is a great honor. Forgive us for failing to welcome you from afar!"
After berating the few people beside him who had mocked Yao Chen, Yao Wan Gui quickly approached to within several meters of Lu Chuan and greeted him respectfully.
"Yao Wan Gui, you really changed your face quickly..."
Lu Chuan showed Yao Wan Gui, who was fawning before him, no courtesy whatsoever.
Hearing Lu Chuan's words, Yao Wan Gui's heart tightened. He understood what Lu Chuan meant, but at this moment, he could only pretend not to understand and keep a smile plastered across his face.
