Peerless Taoist

Many people were still immersed in the shock of the sudden news and had yet to fully recover from it. Now that they heard Su Mo suddenly speak, they all paid attention to him.    

"This time, the three great sects have received important intelligence. The Battle Ancestor Inheritance has appeared once again! The sect has selected fifty young and strong disciples to find the Battle Ancestor Inheritance to alleviate the urgent need of our current Clear Sky!"    

As Su Mo spoke, a strange look flashed across his eyes.    

Immediately after, Su Mo flicked his finger and a list slowly unfolded, floating in the air and appearing in front of everyone.    

The cultivators on the square all looked at it, causing a huge uproar.    

On the list, not a single one of them was a member of the Su Family.    

Lu Yu's name was placed in the first place, and Lu Yu remembered very clearly that the second name, Fang Jie, was one of the core disciples who had entered the sect with him.    

Looking at the list again, most of them were disciples who had entered the sect together with Lu Yu, and some were disciples of Qin Feng.    

The surrounding people immediately began to whisper, and countless gazes fell on Lu Yu.    

"How can this be?"    

When Tang Ying saw the list, she immediately became furious and shouted, "Master Su Mo, how can you be so careless? These disciples are all the pillars of our Ling-Bao Sect!"    

"This is the decision of the Venerable One Hall. Miss Tang Ying, don't doubt it."    

Su Mo said indifferently, as if he was not affected by Tang Ying's identity at all.    

His voice contained endless heavenly might and the power of truth reverberating in all directions. Tang Ying frowned a few times, but in the end, she was unable to resist this power and did not say anything else.    

"Lu Yu, you have to be careful. The Battle Ancestor Inheritance is not a small matter. If you don't handle it well, you might lose your life!" Tang Ying immediately sent a voice transmission to Lu Yu.    

When he heard the words Battle Ancestor Inheritance, Lu Yu's heart suddenly skipped a beat.    

At that time, when he was in the Purple Light Land, he found an ancient ruin and found the remnant of the Ancestral Dragon Technique, as well as a captain's waist plate of the Battle Ancestor Inheritance.    

Qing Niu had told him about the past of the Battle Ancestor.    

It was an extremely powerful legendary realm expert who had once established an Immortal Empire. With his unprecedented strength, he led his troops into the strange universe.    

If it wasn't for the accident that happened in the end, it was likely that the demons would not have been able to wreak havoc.    

Lu Yu had a deep impression of such an expert, and it was very difficult for him to forget about it.    

He did not expect that he would hear this name again in the Spiritual Treasure Sect so soon.    

"What's going on?" Lu Yu sent a voice transmission.    

He could feel that many people around him were looking at him with pity.    

The people present seemed to have heard of the great name of the War Ancestor long ago.    

Tang Ying patiently explained, "The War Ancestor was an expert from ancient times. It was rumored that he established an undying force and had countless war puppets. When he passed away, he left behind a prophecy that someone would be able to inherit his inheritance and continue the undying dynasty."    

"This inheritance had appeared a long time ago. After that, it would appear once every five or six years. At the beginning, many people were eager to go, but soon after, they discovered the truth. The inheritance could only be entered by cultivators under the age of forty. If an older expert entered, he would die."    

"Also, there are many ferocious war puppets inside. If you are not careful, you will be attacked by the war puppets and die on the spot. Not only that, there are also a large number of traps, formations, and so on. After many people entered, they never came back."    

Tang Ying looked at Lu Yu deeply and said in a deep voice, "Su Mo placed your name at the very front. He must have some scheme. You have to be careful!"    

After interacting with Lu Yu for the past few days, she had already known what Lu Yu had done and understood the grudge between Lu Yu and the Su Family.    

Now, Su Mo actually arranged Lu Yu at the very front. It was obvious that he wanted to use Lu Yu to kill him. He wanted to use the War Ancestor inheritance to kill Lu Yu.    

"War puppets..."    

Suddenly, Lu Yu thought of those powerful puppets.    

Their skeletons were hidden in the yellow sand, and they looked like dried corpses. There was not much difference between them.    

However, only by personally seeing them could one know how terrifying these puppets were.    

Back then, when Lu Yu was being chased by the Demon Lord, he had only killed the Demon Lord because he had borrowed the power of the war puppets.    

"I wonder if that waist plate will be effective now." A thought flashed through Lu Yu's mind.    

Suddenly, a cold voice came from Lu Yu's side, "Why don't the Su Family's people go? In the entire sect, the Su Family's young geniuses are the most numerous. If they don't do anything now, when will they?"    

Everyone looked over, only to find that the person who spoke was the son of the Blue Sovereign, Lan Heng.    

Most of the people who were transferred into the Battle Ancestor Inheritance Ruins were disciples who were on good terms with Lu Yu, and most of them had close relations with Lan Heng.    

Anyone could tell that Su Mo was going to deal with Lu Yu.    

"This is the decision of the Venerable Hall. Just do as you see fit. The Su Family's disciples will naturally head to the more dangerous frontlines to fight against the Demon Race," Su Mo said without changing his expression.    

Lan Heng sneered and said, "It's not a secret that the Su Family's people are hiding in the back. If they can't avoid the battle, it's already not a secret. Why are you Su Family's people not doing anything at all and letting our people go to die!"    

The surrounding crowd burst into an uproar again, but this was no longer a secret.    

Many people were amazed that Lan Heng actually dared to say this in front of Su Mo.    

Su Mo was like an old monk sitting still. His wrinkled face was calm, as if he would not be affected at all.    

On the other hand, Xiu Zun, who was standing at the side, suddenly said in a deep voice, "Lan Heng, don't speak anymore!"    

"Xiu Zun, I want to explore the Ancestral Battlefield with you!" Lan Heng suddenly said loudly.    

"Lan Heng! Shut up!"    

"This is the Great Meet of the Sect. Don't speak nonsense!"    

There were also some elders in the Lan Family. They would not ask too much about Lan Heng before, but now, Lan Heng actually wanted to explore the Ancestral Battlefield. It was no different from courting death.    

Lu Yu suddenly said, "Brother Lan, don't get involved in this matter. Jiang Yusheng is still on the front line, and Lan Heng is also there. If you go to the front line, you will be able to play a bigger role!"    

"This..."    

"Trust me, the Su Family can't kill me!"    

Lu Yu deliberately said in a clear voice, and his voice spread in all directions. Many people present heard what Lu Yu had said.    

The faces of the Su Family members turned gloomy. The older ones even started cursing. However, they did not dare to scold too much, so they could only quietly say it, afraid that Lu Yu would beat them again.    

Lan Heng frowned and looked around. He said in a deep voice, "Alright! Don't worry. If I go to the front line, and those Su Family disciples dare not advance, I will tell my father and punish them severely!"    

When these words were spoken, the complexions of many Su Family disciples instantly changed slightly.    

Lan Zun was one of the Venerables dispatched by the Spirit Treasures Sect to supervise the frontline. If Lan Zun really came forward, they would probably have no choice but to fight the demons.
