Chapter 632: Sins of Sovereign Lu!

At the Divine Heavenly Pavilion, amidst the black lotus smoke that dispersed with the wind, Lu Fan lowered his head over the ruins of Suite 95, glancing at the charred bloodstain on his right palm. His expression held an intriguing blend of colors.

"Deservedly the first non-female conquest mission released by the system, and quite challenging. How did he not die from that?"

Lu Fan cast his gaze towards the venue for the Immortal Tournament, his eyes brewing with the intent to fight and to kill.

"Sir Lu, are you hurt?" The Lunar Mistress tenderly inquired, caressing Lu Fan’s hand with a heartache.

With a casual flick of his wrist, Lu Fan sent her tumbling to the ground, then turned towards the fighting platform.

He had only taken a few steps when a flying talisman fluttered down before him!

Touching it, the peach-shaped talisman unfolded in front of his eyes, revealing a row of pinkish-white script.

「Do not disgrace me any further.」

These words halted Lu Fan in his tracks.

A laugh escaped him, amused, "You did well to leverage the various powers around you. But this treasure coffin of yours, how many times can it truly be used? There'll come a time when it's useless, won't there?"

After speaking, Lu Fan's gaze settled on An Yao, who had been standing still, head bowed not far away.

"Good thing I forged an extra Divine Exploration Staff."

As Lu Fan spoke, An Yao looked up, his spirit restored, a nonchalant smile playing on his lips as he made his way towards the fighting platform.

"Daddy." Wuqing clutched at Lu Fan’s sleeve, a look of pitiful affection on her face.

"You go as well," Lu Fan said, patting the young woman’s lower back.

"Alright." Blushing, Wuqing trailed behind An Yao, her small skirt and fox tail fluttering as she ran.

Turning around, Lu Fan lifted the Lunar Mistress onto his shoulder, his eyes slowly blooming with twin golden lotuses, his presence growing especially eerie.Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om

"Incense offerings? Never expected such a classic, brainless, righteous protagonist to truly exist in a xianxia drama. This job is getting more and more interesting."

Near the fighting platform, Yun Yin, with the Thunder Department’s Immortals, gathered around Yun Xiao to check his injuries. Further away, the figures of the Taisui Sage, Dragon Tiger Sovereign, Moon Sword Goddess, and the dark sword shadow were all fixed on Yun Xiao.

The recent commotion had been too great. Yun Xiao had been slapped from the Divine Heavenly Pavilion all the way to the fighting platform, nearly expelled from the Divine Gateway... Such a spectacle did not escape the eyes of the assembled Immortals.

He truly was the son of the Chaos Sovereign, but theirs was a bond riven with enmity.

Empress Zhao's inquiry had been driven by curiosity; she hadn't expected Yun Xiao to openly challenge his father. Such an accusation could devastate the reputation of a Rank 1 Heavenly Officer.

With so many witnesses, the word would surely spread.

A stunned silence fell over the fighting platform. Everyone exchanged glances, speechless.

All eyes eventually turned to Empress Zhao.

With a stern face, she declared, "Rest assured, if Sir Lu is as you say he is, I will speak with him. He will rectify his wrongs and make amends to you and your mother."

Her words were measured, certainly not enough to strip him of his position, but Yun Xiao had achieved his aim.

Yun Xiao was a man who kept his grudges. Lu Fan’s slap had severed any chance of reconciliation. Even if Yun Xiao was no match for him now, he was determined to make Lu Fan's life uncomfortable.

"Empress Dowager!" Yun Xiao looked up, his eyes blazing, "Today, Lu Bufan's slap has severed all ties I had with him in my heart. I seek no repentance from him, nor any reparations. I want to take this moment to declare that from now on, he and I have no connection whatsoever!"

Empress Zhao shook her head and sighed, powerless.

The complexities of family disputes were indeed difficult for even a celestial judge to untangle.

Yun Xiao's declaration hinted at deeper implications, catching the attention of those who harbored interest in this young prodigy.

"Now is the time to act," the Taisui Sage mused, stroking his long beard. He was tempted yet hesitant. He knew that taking in Lu Yao would mean confronting the Greatest War God of the Celestial Court. An old man like him wasn't up to the task.

"The best opportunity is now, before Lu Yao and An Yao's conflict is resolved; later will be too late."

With Yun Xiao and Lu Fan now openly hostile, the pinnacle of the Immortal Tournament was charged with an explosive new energy.

As the Taisui Sage was pondering this, from the direction of the Divine Gateway, a bolt of violet lightning raced towards them.

BOOM! The lightning morphed into a strikingly handsome young man in a violet robe. Though youthful in appearance, he exuded an aura thick and tumultuous as thunder, his presence intense and fiery, commanding awe from all around...

"Rumored to have died in service, Lu Bufan miraculously transformed, abandoning his family for a meteoric rise in the Heavenly Palace. He engaged with numerous women, built a vast harem, and neglected his blind wife and children who endured insults and hardships. His oldest son, Lu An, was cruelly murdered by his superiors, an act ignored by Lu Fan, the so-called Greatest War God of the Celestial Court!
