Huo Fentian chimed in, "Master, you are wise! Lin Zhou is domineering. He even seriously injured the Fang family head. If he is not restrained, he may cause trouble for Falling Star Village in the future!"
The voice came from the bamboo forest again, still gentle, but with an undeniable decisiveness: "The rule of Falling Star Village is 'private fighting is forbidden within the village',"
"As for your grudges with him, they have nothing to do with Falling Star Village. But there is one condition: if he attacks anyone in the village, I will intervene to stop him."
These words, though seemingly neutral, subtly drew a line for Lin Zhou, which also relieved Xing Yan and Huo Fentian.
As long as Lin Zhou dares to make a move, Master will intervene, and the safety of Lu Zhizhou and Huo Zheng is finally guaranteed.
Lu Zhizhou felt even more relieved and looked at Lin Zhou provocatively, his eyes full of smugness.
With Master and Master backing you up, let's see if you still dare to be presumptuous!
But after hearing this, Lin Zhou merely picked at his ear, a hint of impatience on his face, as if he had been listening to a lot of nonsense.
"Are you finished talking? If not, hurry up. If you're done... it's my turn to do it."
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Zhou suddenly moved!
He didn't even look at Xingyan and Huofentian; his gaze was fixed directly on Lu Zhizhou not far away, and he casually slapped his right hand back.
There was no overwhelming spiritual power, no dazzling techniques.
Only a pale golden energy, moving at incredible speed, instantly traversed several meters and slammed into Lu Zhizhou's chest!
"boom!"
With a muffled thud, Lu Zhizhou didn't even have a chance to react; his body was like porcelain struck by a heavy hammer.
It exploded instantly, completely crushing his spiritual power and sea of consciousness along with it.
Not even a trace of its soul remained; only a cloud of blood mist slowly dissipated into the air.
Lu Zhizhou, the prodigy of the Star Luo Sect, has fallen!
The entire room fell silent!
Xingyan froze on the spot, his face showing shock and rage for the first time.
He suddenly turned towards the bamboo forest and roared, "Master! Look! He's making a move in the village! You promised to stop him!"
Huo Fentian and Bing Qingyan were also stunned. Lin Zhou actually dared to ignore the Master's words and take action in the village?
And how could he have so decisively and cleanly killed Lu Zhizhou?
Isn't he afraid that the Master will take action?
Old Huai was so frightened that his face turned pale. He subconsciously looked towards the bamboo forest, fearing that the Master would be furious and that even Luoxing Village would be implicated.
After a moment of silence in the bamboo grove, the Master's voice came again, but without the previous "restraint."
Instead, his words carried a deeper meaning: "I will not concern myself with your struggles."
"But remember—do not harm a single blade of grass or tree in Falling Star Village, or I will show no mercy."
Upon hearing this, everyone understood that the Master not only did not intend to stop Lin Zhou, but actually acquiesced to his actions!
Lin Zhou's act of killing Lu Zhizhou was like pouring a bucket of cold water into a boiling oil pan, leaving everyone present utterly shocked and terrified.
No one expected that, with Xingyan, Huo Fentian's true form, and Bing Qingyan all eyeing the situation covetously...
Lin Zhou actually dared to act so recklessly; his audacity was beyond everyone's comprehension.
"You're asking for it!"
Xingyan was completely enraged, and his blurry stellar energy body fluctuated violently.
He suddenly raised his hand and shouted sharply at the floating star chessboard: "Heavenly Origin Strike!"
As soon as the words fell, all the flowing starlight on the chessboard instantly extinguished, and countless fragments of starlight flowed back into the river.
They frantically converged on the empty "Tengen" position in the center of the chessboard, where there were originally no chess pieces.
At this moment, under the condensation of stellar power, a completely black chess piece slowly emerged.
The surface of the chess pieces is engraved with intricate star patterns, each line exuding a sharp aura that seems to tear through space.
"Buzz—!"
Suddenly, a jet-black chess piece shot out a beam of light as thin as a hair yet as bright as the sun, piercing through the heavens and earth, leaving its mark wherever it passed.
The air was directly vaporized, and even tiny cracks appeared in space.
This is the ultimate penetration that concentrates all the star power in the entire domain into one point. If you are hit by this attack, your body will be instantly pierced through!
At the same time, Xingyan waved his hand again, and seven white chess pieces flew off the chessboard.
It transformed into seven miniature stars in the air, quickly arranging themselves according to the orientation of the Big Dipper.
A pale blue light shield instantly enveloped the entire perimeter of Falling Star Village, firmly locking in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
It is the Star Luo Sect's most powerful formation, the "Seven Star Spirit Locking Formation"!
"Without spiritual energy to support you, let's see how you cast spells!"
Xingyan roared, having calculated that even if Lin Zhou was strong, he couldn't do without the power of spiritual energy.
As long as we lock in the spiritual energy and then use the Heavenly Origin Strike to severely injure Lin Zhou, we can turn the tide of this battle!
Seeing Xingyan make his move, Huo Fentian no longer hesitated, and the Earth Core Flame around his body surged to its maximum.
His entire being seemed to transform into a miniature sun. He slammed his palm down onto the starry chessboard and shouted sharply:
"Universal Calamity!"
This is the ultimate divine power of the Flame Clan!
As his hand fell, the uncaptured pieces on the chessboard instantly lit up with a crimson light, and then exploded with a deafening roar.
Each chess piece transformed into a small sea of fire, and countless seas of fire converged, reshaping the earth's fire in mid-air.
The primordial power of heaven and fire merging, within which one can vaguely see the four elements of earth, water, fire, and wind flowing.
It seemed to be opening up a new world from destruction, and its power was several times more terrifying than Xingyan's Tianyuan Strike!
"Hahaha! Lin Zhou! You asked for this!"
"Today I will let you taste the combined power of the two top forces in my Lingxiao Star Region!"
Huo Fentian laughed wildly, he didn't believe Lin Zhou could withstand these two deadly attacks!
Old Huai was so frightened that he retreated repeatedly, hiding behind a distant rock, only daring to peek out with half his head.
An attack of this caliber, even the aftershocks, could severely injure him!
Fang Lie lay on the ground, looking at the terrifying scene in mid-air, his eyes filled with relief at surviving the ordeal, but also with a hint of malicious schadenfreude.
No matter how strong Lin Zhou is, he can't possibly block these two moves!
Bing Qingyan frowned, instinctively conjuring an ice shield to protect herself, her usually cold eyes filled with seriousness.
She could sense that the power of these two moves had reached the limit of the Lingxiao Star Domain. Even she could only temporarily avoid their sharpness and could not withstand them head-on!
All eyes were on Lin Zhou, waiting to see him get severely injured.
But Lin Zhou merely raised his eyes and glanced at the pillar of light that pierced the heavens and earth.
He glanced at the sea of fire again, but showed no panic on his face, and didn't even move a step.
He gently raised his right hand, palm up, towards the starry chessboard in mid-air, and slowly extended it.
Just then, the sky suddenly darkened, and a huge, white hand appeared out of thin air.
The palm was so large it blotted out the sun, its lines clearly visible, as if formed from the condensed spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Yet, it carried a terrifying pressure and gently reached out towards the starry chessboard.
"This is……"
Xingyan's pupils contracted sharply, and for the first time, despair appeared on his face.
He could sense that the power of this hand had exceeded his comprehension, and even surpassed the boundaries of the Lingxiao Star Region!
