CHAPTER 341: CHAPTER 336 REUNION

Inside the island, within the Moon Palace, there were also many maintaining the grand array.

The people inside the Moon Palace all looked up at the sky above, and they heard the sounds from outside.

"Previously, the Palace Master mentioned leading the Moon Palace to revival, unifying the Sun and Moon Dual Palace, and ruling the West Sea, but I didn’t know it meant colluding with demons and siding with the Nine Infant. By the time I found out, it was too late." A Moon Palace elder said.

"Elder Pang, what meaning is there in discussing this now? When the nest is overturned, no egg remains unbroken. If the array breaks, do you think those people outside will spare the Moon Palace? Their words were merely to shake our resolve." Another person replied.

"What they said isn’t wrong either. We maintain the grand array, but if the attacks continue, how long can we hold? Our Moon Palace has already aroused public wrath; they won’t stop now." Elder Pang sighed.

"Lu Xiao’s mistake alone led our Moon Palace down a path of no return. Why must the disciples of the Moon Palace bear the consequences for him?" At this moment, someone else spoke out.

"Insolence, how dare you question the Palace Master." The crowd was in heated debate.

At this moment, silhouettes approached from afar, one of whom was an elderly white-haired man who spoke loudly, "He speaks the truth. Why should the Moon Palace be buried with Lu Xiao’s fault?"

"Lu Wangji."

The white-haired elder’s face was aged and wrinkled, but his eyes were deep and terrible. He gazed up at the sky, "Lu Xiao, who colludes with demons and betrays humanity, is no longer fit to be the Palace Master of the Moon Palace. The millennia-old reputation of our Moon Palace is destroyed in an instant. Even if outsiders do not come, the Moon Palace should carry out justice against its kin and kill Lu Xiao."

"Lu Wangji, you see your granddaughter return and wish to defect for survival." An elder shouted, only to see Lu Wangji raise his palm, and a terrifying cyclone enveloped the vast heavens and earth, freezing the entire world. He thrust his palm forward, instantly freezing the speaking elder, who screamed, body cracked, and was executed on the spot.

"Lu Wangji, how dare you..." a voice thundered from above, belonging to Lu Xiao.

"Lu Xiao betrayed the family and the Moon Palace, colluding with demons. It is up to our Moon Palace people to clean the house." The elder shouted, shaking the Moon Palace with his voice.

"Well said, Lu Xiao must die." Another elder stepped into the void, exuding a terrifying aura.

"Yu Dingzhou." Lu Xiao looked down, observing the scene below, "Back then, I spared you two, not expecting that you would seize the opportunity amidst the Moon Palace’s crisis to turn the Moon Palace into a dead enemy."

"Regardless of past events, merely speaking of collusion with demons and betraying humanity, the Moon Palace must clean house; Lu Xiao, you deserve to die." Yu Dingzhou waved his sleeve, his gaze sweeping towards those maintaining the array, shouting, "Whoever continues to assist Lu Xiao will be deemed a traitor of the Moon Palace, and will be killed without mercy."

"You two are the real traitors of the Moon Palace." An elder maintaining the array shouted.

"Kill."

Yu Dingzhou raised his hand and attacked without any hesitation. Witnessing this scene, those nearby were internally shaken. Everyone seemed to have gone mad. The Moon Palace had formidable enemies outside, and now an internal conflict erupted, surely leading to its downfall.

"You’re courting death." Lu Xiao’s shout resounded above.

But at this time, outside the array, how could Mo Zhantian and the others miss such an opportunity? The Sun Spear pierced out, crashing onto the grand array, and the Island Master of West Flame Island wielded a giant golden sword, descending from the sky against the array, causing it to tremble violently.

As long as the internal strife continues, leaving the array without someone to maintain it, they can break through from the outside.

"Grandfather, Grandfather-in-law..."

Lu Yuan’s gaze looked towards the scene below within the array, the two elderly figures seemed to awaken sealed memories in her mind. Those two elders were her closest kin; they were still there.

"Everyone, now is the time to break the array."

Li Fan’s gaze was sharp, then he loudly declared. Now that the elders inside the Moon Palace had disrupted the array, they just needed to cooperate in containing and attacking the grand array to break it in one fell swoop.

"Break the array." Everyone shouted in unison.

Majestic Dharma Forms hovered in the sky, those top cultivators stood high above, their mana roaring, launching attacks at the grand array below.

"Lu Xiao, receive your death."

Above the grand array, Mo Zhantian transformed into a giant, resembling a god with the sun on his back. The Sun God Spear shot out radiant brilliance, his figure descended, and with a spear thrust, the spear’s shadow pierced through the heavens and earth.

"Go." Lu Xiao shouted, and a lunar disk appeared, surging upwards to resist the incoming Sun God Spear.

"Boom crack..." Cracks appeared on the lunar disk, while the Sun God Spear continued downward. Lu Xiao activated the array, boundless mana circled around him, the Power of Taiyin extinguished the Yang Fire, and the high-hanging bright moon shone down, covering Mo Zhantian, who was bathed in flames, in frost. Even the all-conquering Sun God Spear froze in front of him, as everything above was icebound.

But at this moment, a sword light descended. Glancing upward, the splendid golden Divine Sword, like the Sun God Spear, shattered all the binding ice power, tearing through space, coming straight down.

Additionally, countless other attacks were frantically launched from various directions.

Within the Moon Palace, Lu Wangji and Yu Dingzhou were filled with wrath, shouting, "People of the Moon Palace, follow me to eradicate the traitor Lu Xiao and his allies, protecting the Moon Palace."

The battle broke out, commencing with destructive attacks and a life-and-death struggle. The Moon Palace was divided, with some siding with Lu Wangji and Yu Dingzhou, others continuing to support Lu Xiao, and some remaining undecided and neutral.

"You are destroying the millennia-old foundation of the Moon Palace yourselves." Above, Lu Xiao shouted, but he had no time to spare as he couldn’t focus on the Moon Palace’s internal strife.

"Break the array!"

Above the island, the shouts of kill and charge were equally deafening. Countless cultivators continued their attacks, causing the array to tremble and the entire island to shake. The cultivators on the island looked up at the battlefield in the sky, their eyes filled with panic and confusion.

"Crack..."

Not long after, the array of the Moon Palace showed cracks. The chaos inside made it naturally difficult to maintain the array.

"Lu Xiao won’t last much longer; he’s bound to die." Li Fan and Lu Yuan stood together, watching the battlefield below. At this moment, multiple top cultivators were surrounding Lu Xiao, who began to lose the array’s support.

This battle would be the end of Lu Xiao.

"Lu Xiao betrayed humanity; he should have expected this outcome. Even his death won’t repay the debt." Beside him, Mo Yuechan spoke. Because of Lu Xiao’s betrayal, countless lives were lost in the West Sea.

"However, after this battle, the West Sea should usher in a new era." She said softly, a bit hopeful for the future.

"Boom!" A loud explosion sounded, terrifying mana waves swept through the heavens and earth, a powerful shockwave struck Li Fan, forcing him to retreat.

"The array is broken."

Li Fan was excited and then went against the current, heading straight for the Moon Palace.

The breakthrough was initiated from within; the Moon Palace was in chaos. Lu Wangji and the others gained the upper hand, responding in tandem with the external offensive to break the grand array.

"Senior..." Li Fan shouted to Mo Zhantian.

Mo Zhantian understood Li Fan’s intention and said loudly, "Enter the Moon Palace, do not kill indiscriminately, only kill the resistors."

"Lu Xiao, prepare to die." He charged straight towards Lu Xiao.

"Treated as a pawn." Lu Xiao glanced at the situation and knew the tide had turned. The court hadn’t shown up and wouldn’t appear; would they admit to the world that it was they who colluded with demons to slaughter humans?

"Boom."

He soared into the sky, preparing to abandon the Moon Palace and escape alone. As long as he was alive, there was hope.

"Whoosh..." The dazzling divine sword pursued him, several figures intercepting, not allowing him to escape.

A top-level great cultivator escaping would leave endless calamities.

In the Moon Palace, the cultivators looked up at the sky and saw countless cultivators descending, vast and endless, causing all those who resisted to despair, even their palace master Lu Xiao was fleeing.

The destiny of the Moon Palace is sealed!

"Give up resistance, I’ll negotiate." Lu Wangji declared loudly, scanning the crowd. Those who were still resisting knew there was no hope and withdrew their auras.

In an instant, the grand army of cultivators surrounded the Moon Palace, and the entire Moon Palace was enveloped in an oppressive atmosphere; their life and death were in the hands of the enemy.

Li Fan and Lu Yuan swooped down, with a figure following behind them.

"Buzz..." The power of Taiyin descended upon Li Fan and Lu Yuan. Suddenly, a cultivator from the Moon Palace attacked; it was Lu Zhanchen, moving extremely fast, cold light bursting as he slashed toward Li Fan and Lu Yuan.

It was they who caused the downfall of the Moon Palace.

"Courting death."

A voice fell, causing the void to tremble. Before Lu Zhanchen could approach Li Fan and Lu Yuan, a huge hand seal slammed into him, then squeezed forcefully, instantaneously obliterating him.

Liu Zonglin’s figure appeared beside Li Fan and Lu Yuan.

"Thank you, Senior." Li Fan thanked him and continued downward, knowing that the other party couldn’t kill him.

Meanwhile, two figures rushed toward them, stopping in mid-air.

"Are you Little Yuan?" Both elders’ gazes fell on Lu Yuan, their eyes red, none other than Lu Wangji and Yu Dingzhou.

"Grandfather, grandfather."

Lu Yuan’s eyes reddened, her figure moved forward, and the two elders each reached out with trembling hands to gently stroke Lu Yuan’s head.

"Little Yuan, we wronged you." Tears gathered at the corners of the elders’ eyes.

Li Fan quietly watched their family reunion from behind. The Moon Palace indeed had a thousand years of heritage. The two elders turned out to be great cultivators of the Seven Realms, the veteran members of the Moon Palace, no wonder they lived until today. In the Moon Palace, they were also the most supreme existences.
