Divine Brilliance

Zong Shou squinted and then looked at Fangjue carefully before shaking his head.

“All of you putting my name into your Lu Family name list is your matter, it has nothing to do with me. I also didn’t agree. Moreover, that would be Lu Shou and not Zong Shou…”

Although he didn’t know about the Lu Family’s situation, just through the 30 successor choices and those rumors, he could tell how chaotic it was within.

Even if this was their plan to make one stronger, allowing the juniors to fight to choose someone who had the ability to succeed the family, the Lu Family 10,000 years in the future would not only not weaken, but become even stronger instead.

Zong Shou had no intentions of stepping in and being wrapped up in this whirlpool.

Moreover, whether or not his father would kill him for wanting to change his surname was another matter…

If he had enough power to cause the Lu Family to compromise and release his Mother, that was enough to satisfy him.

At this moment, he had already seen some hope. Common People’s Path and Dragon Shadow, although it was far from enough to make the Lu Family yield, was already enough to go up against them.

That day was probably not too far away.

Fangjue probably predicted this and said expressionlessly, “The matter has already reached such a state, so regardless of whether Young Master agrees, you are already our Young Master. There will be no changes to what has already happened. All enemies and friends of the Lu Family in this region will know about it, that you are our direct bloodline and the future Head of the Family.”

What he meant was that Zong Shou’s thoughts were of no meaning at all and wouldn’t affect the situation.

Zong Shou became even more unhappy, why did it feel like he was being forced? He didn’t like to be on the back foot, to be made to do things by others.

He also felt helpless, there was really nothing he could do to such a person.

Speaking of which, why did he have to debate with these people?

Just now, didn’t he find it inappropriate looking at these people kneeling towards him?

Thinking about that, he couldn’t help but rub his temples.

“Please get up first before we speak!”

Fangjue laughed when he heard that. He didn’t reject this time and stood up. His expression was the same as the people behind him; it was extremely complicated.

“After Little Miss gave birth to you, she never met you, but she still loves you deeply. If she knew of your current situation, she would be delighted!”

Zong Shou’s expression changed slightly as he looked towards Fangjue. Apart from Zong Weiran, this was the first time he heard someone who knew his parents talk about his Mother.

That’s true! How could she not love him?

He heard about the rules of the Lu Family, to still insist under such a circumstance to give birth to him, how was she a normal person to do such a thing?

He had never seen his Mother and had no recollection of her in his memory but he was still able to feel her warmth.

Then, Fangjue said, “I once served Little Miss for 70 years. The entire Fang Family has benefited from her kindness. The most painful thing in my life was when Little Miss was being punished, but I was powerless to help her. Now, I am fortunate to have become a Hall Head, I will go all out to let Young Master control the Lu Family to take back everything that belongs to Little Miss…”

If the words before had touched him, the words after made him speechless.

However, since Cangyan Hall Head, the Head of one of the six halls of the Lu Family, maybe he knew where his Mother was?

“What is my Mother’s current situation?”

He asked right as he thought about it, staring right at Fangjue, “Where is she now?”

“In the Nine Extreme Death Jail!”

Fangjue answered without any hesitation, “This is where the Lu Family punishes people. One world, nine layers, tightly guarded. It was said that the ninth layer is like hell. Once one enters, even a God Realm expert wouldn’t be able to take the heavy punishment, often dying in a few years. There are only a few who are able to survive. Unless one relied on outside help, otherwise, one wouldn’t be able to leave. Little Miss was only Heaven Realm when she was punished. Even if Old Master was helping her secretly, she should still have been suffering from a lot of torture.”

When he said this, he suddenly recalled something and said, “A few days ago, there was a God Realm cultivator who entered and made a huge scene. Then, who knew where he went. Did he go to jail or did he just leave? Some people said that he was your Father Zong Weiran, who knows whether or not it’s true?”

Zong Shou’s pupils constricted before returning to normal.

“Nine Extreme Death Jail? Is it really impossible to leave once one enters?”

“That is not the case!”

Fangjue shook his head, “Unless one has the purest Sky Burning blood or something above it. However, such a bloodline hadn’t appeared in the Lu Family for several generations, even your Mother doesn’t have it. Or maybe someone outside the jail helps her. However, that Nine Extreme Death Jail was said to be the incarnation of a spiritual sense of an End Realm of the Lu Family. So, no one had been able to escape the jail over these tens of thousands of years…”

Zong Shou nodded his head in deep thought. In other words, to save her, he had to risk angering an End Realm.

Fangjue said, “There is one more plan, which involves you taking control of our Sky Burning Lu Family!”

Zong Shou glanced at him with a cold gaze. Then, he saw the dozens of Lu Family people behind him with passionate eyes, filled with craving and anticipation.

He held his breath. These people were all extremely loyal to his Mother.

He had no right to scold them and couldn’t bear to do so.

He waved his sleeves to express his unhappiness, “I’ve already said that the Lu Family matter has nothing to do with me!”

Unless he had no choice, he wouldn’t want to become the Master of those 800 worlds.

Fighting for power, killing people of the same bloodline, didn’t one find it annoying?

After saying this, Zong Shou stepped onto the turtle’s back. He ordered the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle to head in the direction of the First Dragon Hall.

Since this Cangyan Hall Head had come over, then he didn’t need to worry about this matter. Naturally, Fangjue would deal with it well. He could also help to solve Feishuang and Feihan’s matter too…

“This Instance Space Dragon Hall doesn’t prohibit outsiders from entering. If you all want something, just go and take it.”

After saying this, he grabbed Zhuya Hongji. The latter was shocked and instantly wanted to resist. However, his body protecting energy was broken instantly, layer by layer.

RIght as he was about to use the hook, Zong Shou’s sword was already beside him. The sword intent forced down on him, such that he wasn’t able to wave the hook at all.

There was a whole wall between them, but there was nothing he could do.

The huge hand that Zong Shou formed in the air grabbed him, like a kid in the arms of a giant, extremely frail and weak, powerless to resist.

“Oh? So, Young Master’s sword path has already reached the Spirit Realm! No wonder you weren’t afraid of Su Rang. Even if he attacked, you would be able to safely retreat into the dragon hall! I interfered too much…”

Fangjue burst out laughing when he saw that, however, he was filled with joy and happiness.

“If Old Master comes out and learns about Young Master, how surprised would he be? As for this First Dragon Hall, forget about it. Our Sky Burning Lu Family has been passed down for tens of thousands of years. Before the Cloud World was opened, we already ruled hundreds of worlds. The treasures we have amassed are even above the four Dragon Palaces. Although the items within aren’t useless, they aren’t precious. If Young Master is interested, just go and take it. It seems like those Instant Space Dragons won’t dare to say much about us!”

When they heard the words Sword Intent Spirit Realm, the people within the hall looked towards Zong Shou like they were looking at a ghost.

Someone whose martial path reached the Spirit Realm had the right to chase for the God Realm!

Especially the people behind Fangjue, who were mostly knowledgeable. When Fangjue said these words, they had already sensed how mysterious and profound his sword intent was.

Their eyes were fixed, their gazes were filled with vast joy among all the disbelief.

Fangjue laughed, “If Young Master wants to interrogate this person, I do know a little. It was said that 10,000 years ago, the Instant Space Dragon Race had replicated the Book of the Universe. They collected numerous spiritual treasures and built a Universe Light Hall to let their people cultivate. 10,000 years ago, something changed and their shrine was forcefully broken. They could only send this First Dragon Hall out of the region to avoid the crisis. However, everyone who participated in that battle died. With that, the legacy of this dragon hall was lost. Even the Universe Light Hall was nowhere to be seen…”

Zong Shou was stunned and then he scoffed coldly. He had already tried to cover the sword he had used just now.

Using Sword Spirit as the core, what was shown on the outside was peak Sword Soul Realm.

Who knew that Fangjue would manage to see through it?

However, was there really such a thing as the Universe Light Hall? What effects would the replicated Book of the Universe have?

After realizing the real reason, there was no need for Zhuya Hongji.

Zong Shou casually flung him around, looking at Feihan and Feishuang with questioning eyes.

He was asking whether or not they wanted to deal with his Zhuya Hongji themselves.

The two of them shook their heads in unison. They were still a little shocked, like they still hadn’t come back to their senses from Zong Shou’s new identity.

Zong Shou didn’t Sam anymore, casually slicing off Zhuya Hongji’s head.

Someone like him, Juelong Celestial Region Hall Head, it was like killing a chicken to him.

Only when the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle came to the front of the dragon hall did Feishuang and Feihan come to their senses. They immediately flew up and started to unlock the restrictions. They slit their wrists and used their blood to open it up.

Just at this moment, Li Fengfei laughed awkwardly and bowed towards Zong Shou.

“Your Highness, please save me!”

Zong Shou was stunned and looked out to see a pleading expression on his face.

The other two people didn’t understand at the start, but then their expressions changed as they bowed.

Zong Shou didn’t understand at first as he didn’t want to claim their lives. If it wasn’t him, then…

He turned around and looked at Fangjue, only to see him laugh. “Anyone who saw young master attack, I, Fangjue, won’t let him live!”
