“Are you hurt?”

Lu Yuan finished looking at his own disciple and asked.

“Thank you for your concern, Master. I’m fine.” Zhou Qing shook his head, his voice slightly hoarse.

“That’s good.” Lu Yuan nodded, then sighed as he looked at his disciple’s appearance. “Iron Sword Sect leader Ding Xihua is dead, and Dragon Mountain has also been annihilated. You have avenged your family’s grievances and can let go of your grudge.”

Zhou Qing was stunned when he heard this, and then his body collapsed as he burst into tears.

Lu Yuan shook his head, walked up to his disciple and patted him on the head, comforting, “Alright, stop crying, get up. The Iron Sword Sect has been destroyed, your father-in-law can rest in peace.”

“Yes.”

Zhou Qing wiped his tears and stood up, his voice choked, “I’ve lost my composure, and made Master laugh.”

Even though it’s been over ten years, the memory of his wife and father-in-law’s tragic death was still fresh in his mind, and his heart was filled with grief.

Lu Yuan sighed again but said nothing.

At this moment, Han Shun and Zhang You, the two disciples, had also finished cleaning up their areas of Iron Sword Sect members and hurried over.

“Greetings to Master.”

After the two had bowed, they looked at their senior brother who had red eyes and tear-streaked cheeks, as if he had just cried, and they couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

Neither Lu Yuan nor Zhou Qing had ever mentioned his past experiences to the other disciples.

So at this moment, Han Shun and Zhang You were unaware of Zhou Qing’s hatred for the Iron Sword Sect.

They could only speculate in their minds whether their senior brother had been scolded by Master, but it didn’t seem likely.

However, no matter how puzzled they were, they could only keep their thoughts to themselves and never dare to voice them aloud.

“Your arrival is timely.”

Seeing the other disciples arrive, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but nod and then ordered, “According to what Iron Sword Sect leader Ding Xihua just said, there are a million silver taels in the public accounts of the Iron Sword Sect. You should seize them immediately.

Also, you should interrogate the captured Iron Sword Sect disciples and elders thoroughly, and find out where their wealth and treasures are hidden.

The most important thing is to find out where Iron Sword Sect’s treasure is.

I want you to find all the Divine Blood Elixir and wealth accumulated by the sect throughout history. That is the most important goal of this trip.

Do you understand?”

Han Shun and Zhang You heard the strict tone of their master and hurriedly agreed, “We will follow your instructions, Master.”

After that, both of them left hastily, each leading a group of elite disciples to search for treasures and interrogate prisoners.

After they left, it wasn’t long before Lan Zhaoyun arrived.

This Sect Leader seemed relaxed and didn’t show any signs of intense activity. He appeared leisurely, as if he had come for a vacation.

Upon seeing him, Lu Yuan asked, “Sect Leader Lan, how was the harvest this time?”

Lan Zhaoyun smiled easily, “These Iron Sword Sect people are of no use at all. With a little use of my poison skills, they all fell. But that’s good too. This time, I captured three elders of the Iron Sword Sect, as well as two of their Sect Leader’s disciples. Quite a rewarding harvest.”

Lu Yuan laughed, “That’s great. My disciples were a little too ruthless earlier and didn’t leave much alive. I was worried about how to interrogate prisoners and find the Iron Sword Sect’s treasures. Sect Leader Lan’s actions have just relieved my anxiety.”

Lan Zhaoyun said with some pride, “Not only me, my Poison Sect disciples have also captured quite a few people. I will hand them over to General later.”

Lu Yuan nodded, “Thank you, Sect Leader.”

As the two chatted, the sounds of fighting in the mountains gradually subsided.

With their swift and lethal attack, the Iron Sword Sect, the number one sect in Luling Prefecture, was caught off guard and its Mountain Gate was instantly breached.

Now, only an hour had passed, and the entire sect had been wiped out.

As Lu Yuan watched this scene, he felt deep emotions and a sense of vigilance.

Today he destroyed the Iron Sword Sect, but if he were not careful in the future, he might be destroyed by someone else.

‘If the entire Dan Ding Path sect attacks, with the Dao master and the other two True Persons together, as well as other martial artists within the sect, it would catch me off guard.’

‘Without any preparation, the possibility of me failing would be no smaller than that of Iron Sword Sect.’

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan decided to bring his wife with him when going out in the future.

With the two inborn level experts together, even if the entire sect of Dan Ding Path attacked, they would be able to counter. This would greatly enhance their chances of survival.

Of course, due to past grievances, in some ways, Lan Cai’er couldn’t be truly trusted.

But as long as he could maintain his strength and be loving towards his wife, even giving her a child and a promising future, Lan Cai’er and the Five Poisons Sect could be considered reliable allies for Lu Yuan.

Therefore, in many aspects, the Five Poisons Sect was actually quite trustworthy after the marriage alliance.

Even in some aspects, this trust outshines his own disciples, except Zhou Qing.

As Lu Yuan thought about this, he carefully considered his future treatment and arrangements with the Five Poisons Sect.

In the following time,

Lu Yuan, worried about his disciples, took Zhou Qing and the Lan father and daughter together to tour Dragon Mountain.
