The Culprit Was the Dark Immortal Hall! Just Say the Word, and the Dark Immortal Hall Will Disappear the Next Second

"Lu Clan? Hahaha, five months ago, the Immortal Lu Family was already a thing of the past. It had been declared destroyed." Feng Yi looked at Lu Yuan, his eyes flickering. "You seem to be a member of the Lu Clan too. What, you didn't know?"

Lu Yuan's heart sank to the bottom, and then overwhelming killing intent flooded his chest. He said nothing more.

He raised his hand and formed a sword seal with two fingers. Sharp sword energy burst forth. Everyone on the street felt as if a thorny blade were pressed against their backs, and their scalps crawled with fear.

As the person facing him, Feng Yi felt as if a world-splitting divine blade were pressed against his forehead, leaving him utterly unable to move rashly. Every pore across his body throbbed with piercing pain.

"Y-You, what are you trying to do?" Feng Yi grew frightened and swallowed before saying, "I'm a True Disciple of the Great Sun Cult, and my Master is the Left Protector of the Great Sun Cult. If you dare kill me, not only you, but all the surviving members of the Lu Clan hiding in Pingtian Domain will die!"

"Let me go, and I'll leave immediately. How about we pretend today's events never happened?"

"You want to beg for your life while threatening others at the same time. Did you learn that from those idiots in Beautiful Country?"

Lu Yuan spoke softly, then gently waved toward Feng Yi.

Feng Yi did not even feel anything. In the next second, three heads flew into the air.

A Saint Realm prodigy of a major sect had died here without warning.

Countless people on both sides of the street held their breath, not daring to make a sound.

Lu Yuan paid them no attention. He turned and swiftly left with Lu Changming and Lu Changyue.

Lu Yuan could no longer endure the anxiety in his heart. He desperately wanted to know what had happened to the Lu Clan.

Tianxiao City, a quiet courtyard built beside a lake.

"Tell me. What exactly happened?"

Lu Yuan asked the two people before him in a deep voice.

Lu Changming looked solemn. He glanced around, then took a deep breath and said, "Brother Yuan, before I tell you the truth, you have to stay calm. You absolutely cannot act rashly."

Lu Yuan nodded. He understood that Lu Changming was afraid he would disregard everything and seek revenge against his enemies after learning the truth.

Lu Changming said, "Brother Yuan, I actually don't know the exact details either. Changyue and I happened to be away during that time. Afterward, we received a bolt-from-the-blue message: our Lu Clan had been destroyed!"

"After learning that, Changyue and I immediately returned to the clan, but all we saw was a field of ruins. Our Lu Clan was truly gone!"

Lu Changming's face was pale. Who could have imagined that the invincible Immortal Lu Family would be destroyed overnight?

Lu Changming continued, "After that, all our clansmen who were outside were hunted down. The forces that had once been friendly with our Lu Clan either turned against us or were wary of something and simply didn't dare shelter us."

"The Immortal Gu Family and the Feathered Immortal Dynasty were the two main forces hunting us."

After hearing this, Lu Yuan's heart churned violently. No adjective could describe his emotions at that moment.

Yet Lu Yuan still remained calm and asked, "Do you know who destroyed my Lu Clan?"

The Immortal Gu Family and the Feathered Immortal Dynasty were forces on the same level as the Lu Clan. But they absolutely were not the main culprits. Those two forces alone were incapable of destroying the Lu Clan overnight.

Lu Changming shook his head. "I don't know. The identity of the true culprit remains a mystery to this day."

Lu Yuan fell silent, then said, "Heal your injuries first. We'll discuss everything else after you've recovered."

After saying that, Lu Yuan rose and left, returning to his room.

As soon as he entered the room, Lu Yuan closed his eyes. When he opened them again, he had appeared in a vast starry sky.

On the far side of the starry sky stood nine incomparably huge and majestic beings.

They sensed Lu Yuan's arrival.

One of the Chief Gods let out a soft exclamation.

"Huh? Why have you come?"

Lu Yuan's expression was dark and solemn. He got straight to the point. "The Lu Clan was destroyed. I want to know who the culprit was!"

Destroyed?

The nine Chief Gods were astonished. They all knew that the Lu Clan was the family into which Lu Yuan had been born.

"Wait. We'll investigate."

The nine Chief Gods spoke simultaneously. To them, this matter was neither particularly major nor particularly minor.

The Lu Clan was still a force as tiny as dust in their eyes. But since it involved Lu Yuan, they could not help but take it seriously.

Soon, one of the Chief Gods said, "We found it. The culprit was the Dark Immortal Hall. The Immortal Gu Family, the Feathered Immortal Dynasty, and the Ancient Dragon God Cult were accomplices... However, the Dark Immortal Hall acted on the orders of a High Immortal from the Immortal Court."

"The Dark Immortal Hall, the Immortal Court?!"

Lu Yuan's expression changed. On the Dark Continent, the levels of power were, in order, gangs, sects, schools, clans, major cults, Heavenly Venerate Sects, and Immortal Dao Lineages.

The Lu Clan, the Gu Family, and the Feathered Immortal Dynasty all belonged to the level of Immortal Dao Lineages.

However, above the Immortal Dao Lineages of the Dark Continent were five transcendent Supreme Powers.

None of these five Supreme Powers were native to the Dark Continent. They were branches established by several colossal forces from beyond the Dark Continent.

The Dark Immortal Hall was one of the five Supreme Powers. Moreover, the Dark Immortal Hall on the Dark Continent was merely a branch of the true Dark Immortal Hall.

The true Dark Immortal Hall was a superpower throughout the Primordial Great Realm.

However, even the Dark Immortal Hall was merely an affiliated force of the Immortal Court.

The Immortal Court was a hegemonic force spanning countless multidimensional spacetimes.

It was on the same level as the Taiyuan Divine Court and the Main God Hall.

However, in terms of overall strength, the Main God Hall surpassed the other two.

The culprits were actually the Dark Immortal Hall and the Immortal Court.

Lu Yuan felt more troubled than ever. Neither of these two great forces was something he could oppose in his current state.

The fact that the Dark Immortal Hall had destroyed the Lu Clan overnight was enough to show that its level far surpassed that of an Immortal Dao Lineage.

Just then, the Chief God who had spoken earlier said again, "I haven't finished. Your Lu Clan wasn't actually destroyed. It merely suffered tremendous losses. At the final moment, your Lu Ancestor erupted with Emperor Venerable-level strength and self-exiled the entire Lu Clan."

"The Lu Clan wasn't destroyed? It was merely self-exiled by the Lu Ancestor?"

Lu Yuan was overjoyed. As long as the Lu Clan had not been destroyed, everything could still be resolved.

"Did you find out which world the Lu Clan was exiled to?" Lu Yuan asked.

Exile had roughly the same meaning as being driven away and banished.

The Chief God shook his head. "The Cosmic Heavens are too vast. There's no way to search for it."

Lu Yuan was somewhat disappointed, but he was not overly discouraged. Being able to learn all this was already very good.

However, Lu Yuan soon asked in confusion, "The Dark Immortal Hall... Why did the Immortal Court attack my Lu Clan?"

"We don't know. Nor is it important. As long as you say the word, whether it's the Dark Immortal Hall or the Immortal Court, we can erase them for you. Even the Immortal Lord isn't beyond our ability to kill!"

One of the Chief Gods spoke, utterly unconcerned with how shocking his words were.

Lu Yuan shook his head and sneered. "No need. The Lu Clan's grudge should be avenged by the people of the Lu Clan themselves."
