How could this be?

This question floated back and forth in Lan Zhaoyun’s heart.

Previously in his eyes, Lu Yuan was merely an ordinary military commander who could fight wars and had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command.

Although difficult to deal with, when compared to himself, he was not at the same level of power.

After all, the original Poison Sect had 200,000 troops, nearly the territory of five prefectures, and an Inborn Grandmaster in the sect. No matter how you looked at it, it was far stronger than Lu Yuan.

But just this year, everything changed.

In response to Zhou People, Lan Zhaoyun led an army of 60,000 from Wuling Prefecture to help attack Shangguan Ming, with the original intention of recapturing the county city.

But who would have thought that this would force Lu Yuan out.

A sudden 200,000 army expedition, shaking the entire Dongting Prefecture, forcing Lan Zhaoyun back to Wuling Prefecture.

But who knew this was only a smoke screen, after an unexpected surprise attack, they lost the three prefectures in the south, with one hundred thousand soldiers scattered, and the situation reversed in an instant.

The once formidable Poison Sect, which could stand against the court in Dongting Prefecture, was instantly knocked down into the dust.

Reduced to a candle in the wind that could only hold onto one corner, shrinking in Wuling Prefecture, completely lost hope of hegemony.

But even so, for Lan Zhaoyun, it wasn’t the end of the road yet.

Because within the Poison Sect, there was still his daughter – the Saintess, an Inborn Grandmaster.

On the other hand, even though Lu Yuan had hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, he was just an ordinary top-tier expert. When facing an Inborn Grandmaster, there wasn’t much advantage.

So as long as his daughter remained, Poison Sect still had some cards to play and hope for self-preservation.

That was why, even though the Poison Sect had asked for peace earlier, they still held a superior attitude, attempting to negotiate on equal footing.

Because in terms of power distribution, the Poison Sect had the advantage in terms of top-tier experts, whereas Lu Yuan had the advantage in terms of military force. Though there was a gap between the two sides, they were generally of the same level.

And then this last hope was shattered as well.

Just last month, with the news of Lu Yuan breaking through to Innate, the last shred of superiority in Lan Zhaoyun’s heart was completely trampled upon.

He knew that his side, in the face of Lu Yuan, no longer possessed any advantage.

Be it in terms of military force or high-end combat power.

So after realizing this, Lan Zhaoyun chose to submit, gave up on the stubborn border negotiation, and agreed to Lu Yuan’s request to meet him personally.

This was initially extremely humiliating for him.

However, this humiliation turned into fear when he saw the several people standing beside Lu Yuan.

Four Innate Combat Powers, what kind of concept was that?

Now with the decisive battle between the Yue State court and Zhou Country, within Dongting territory including Lu Yuan and Yan Wangqiu, there were only five Inborn Grandmasters. As for Zhou Country, they also had five.

Now there were four on Lu Yuan’s side, almost equivalent to these two great countries.

‘If they all come together to besiege Cai’er, even if she is an Inborn Grandmaster, I’m afraid it would be difficult to resist, right?’

Previously, when Lan Cai’er cooperated with Li Xiong, they could assassinate Li Gui.

Now on Lu Yuan’s side, the number of people is double that of that time, and the members are also stronger than that time.

So to chase and kill a Lan Cai’er who is weaker than Li Gui, it would only be easier, not harder.

Thinking of the situation his daughter might face, Lan Zhaoyun felt terrified.

This was not only a concern for his daughter.

But also the worry for the future of the Poison Sect and the Miao People after his daughter was gone.

Under the strong fear, the last persistence in his heart vanished, and he took the initiative to admit his guilt and bow down, saying: “The sinful Lan Zhaoyun has seen the general.”

Seeing Lan Zhaoyun submitting, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but smile, knowing that his intimidation today had worked.

But thinking that he would still need to rely on the other party later, he didn’t put on too much of an air and directly stepped forward to help him up, smiling: “I’ve been waiting for Sect Leader Lan for quite a while now, I’m finally able to meet you in person.”

Lan Zhaoyun hurriedly said: “It’s a crime for me to keep the general waiting, I deserve ten thousand deaths, please forgive me, general.”

“Well, don’t talk about that. It’s good that Sect Leader Lan has arrived.”

Lu Yuan waved his hand and then introduced the three people around him to Lan Zhaoyun: “This is Yan Wangqiu, the old Sect Leader Yan, the Sect Leader of Nanhai Sect, and a good friend of mine. This is Sect Leader Su Xuange of the Nine River Sword Sect, my good friend.

This is True Person Anqiu of the Dan Ding Path, the number one Path within Liang Country, my fellow Daoist.”

Lu Yuan pointed to the three people, introducing them one by one, and then said to everyone: “This is Sect Leader Lan Zhaoyun of the Poison Sect, you can get to know each other.”

“Sect Leader Lan.”

“Sect Leader Lan.”

Su Xuange and Yan Wangqiu both knew about Lu Yuan’s plan and that Lan Zhaoyun’s daughter was an important force in forcing the court to compromise.

So at this moment, they didn’t put on an angry face towards Lan Zhaoyun, and like Lu Yuan, their attitude was quite good.

Seeing the other party voluntarily submit, they also greeted one another in a friendly manner.

“I’ve met Sect Leader Su and Sect Leader Yan.”

Facing the Sect Leaders of two Innate Great Sects, Lan Zhaoyun dared not be arrogant at all. He quickly returned the courtesy, his attitude very respectful.

Even though, theoretically speaking, once Lan Cai’er was out, the Poison Sect could also be called an Innate Great Sect.

But with the current situation of the Poison Sect, there was always the danger of being destroyed, so when Lan Zhaoyun met the others, he didn’t have a shred of confidence, and he held an attitude as low as possible.

“Sect Leader Lan, I spoke out of turn before and offended you. I hope you won’t take offense.”

At this time, True Person Anqiu saw the attitude of Lu Yuan and the others towards Lan Zhaoyun, and realized something. After thinking for a moment, he also took the initiative to apologize.
