Perhaps some people don't recognize Fahai and Xiaozuanfeng, but how could the elders of the Shenwu Sect and the Xuantian Dao Sect not recognize them?
With Ning Yueze's words, Fang Daokun and the others immediately understood who was inside the giant chariot, and their expressions turned somewhat ugly.
If Chen Nong were here, he would probably shout, "The young master of the Zhou family is here! Quickly open the formation!"
Unfortunately, Chen Nong wasn't there, and Zhou Xingdou couldn't act so recklessly in his own sect, since he also had to consider whether his beautiful master would spank him.
The giant chariot stopped in front of the elders. Yuan Tian and Fahai immediately walked to the sides of the chariot's entrance. Little Drill Wind, who had been unknowingly blocking the chariot's entrance, immediately shrank into a corner after being kicked by Yuan Tian.
Lightning flashed across the palace gate, and Zhou Xingdou's figure slowly stepped out.
Clad in the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Emperor Armor, his pair of silver-white eyes, filled with purple aura, exuded an imposing aura. The moment he appeared, all living beings felt an invisible pressure.
It was a supreme aura, no less than that of any power leader. The intertwined purple and silver vertical lines between his brows exuded a tangible, merciless divine might, making people tremble with fear.
"It's Daozi!"
The gatekeeper disciples spotted the figure on the giant chariot and exclaimed in surprise, but at the same time, their limp bodies relaxed considerably in an instant.
Given Zhou Xingdou's previous reputation as a benevolent and gentle person in the Xuantian Dao Sect, even with his overwhelming divine might, the disciples felt a sense of security.
Because they did not believe that their Daoist disciple would harm them, they even showed joy and a sense of security upon seeing Zhou Xingdou return.
Luo Hanyi, walking alongside Zhou Xingdou, possessed an outstanding sharp sword intent, but she was overshadowed by Zhou Xingdou's imposing aura and barely noticed.
Zhou Xingdou looked at Ning Yueze. He still respected this heroine, Aunt Ning, and smiled and nodded at her.
But he was somewhat indifferent to Fang Daokun and his group of five from Nine Heavens Peak:
"Do you have something to say? If not, leave."
Because of Fang Tianyang's matter, the elders of Jiutian Peak already had no goodwill towards Zhou Xingdou. When they were alerted by this commotion and were only given such an arrogant reply, they were naturally somewhat dissatisfied.
If it were truly a senior expert from another sect, it would be one thing, but for a junior from their own sect to say such a thing naturally made the five of them lose face.
Fang Daokun's gaze sharpened immediately, and an elder beside him promptly reprimanded him:
"What a grand display of power Daozi has! He hasn't even been officially crowned yet, and he's already ordering us elders around like this. If he waits until he's officially crowned, won't he be able to disregard even the hall masters, peak masters, and Dao masters?"
Zhou Xingdou's eyes turned cold as he looked at the elder who had spoken, and said in utter indifference:
"Yes, ask them if they have any objections?"
Zhou Xingdou's arrogant words should have angered them, but the elder who spoke felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, with endless chills coming from above and below, and waves of trepidation constantly rising in his heart.
At that moment, his pupils contracted, and he froze on the spot, not daring to make the slightest movement.
Yuan Tian and Fahai no longer concealed their auras. Their supreme power, which shocked the heavens and earth, pressed down on Fang Daokun and the other four without reservation, intimidating their minds.
Ning Yue frowned at this moment and said to Zhou Xingdou:
"Alright, enough of this nonsense. Let's go back to the peak and not be too disrespectful to the elders of Nine Heavens Peak."
Although Ning Yue didn't particularly like these people, they were all sect elders after all. In her mind, Zhou Xingdou's actions, while making her feel comfortable, were somewhat inappropriate.
Zhou Xingdou, seeing that he had gained the upper hand, smiled slightly, his imposing aura completely gone. Looking at Ning Yueze's handsome yet charming face, he slowly said:
"I'll listen to Aunt Ning."
Zhou Xingdou then signaled to Fahai and Yuan Tian, along with the hidden Xingyou Commander, to put away their attacks, allowing Fang Daokun and the others to finally breathe a sigh of relief from the suffocating feeling.
Zhou Xingdou also slightly raised his hand, but his gesture was very perfunctory:
"Elders, I apologize for my earlier offense."
Fang Daokun's expression had turned somewhat ugly, but he didn't lose his composure. He slightly raised his hand and said in a low voice:
"The Daoist Master is too powerful for us to bear!"
The other elders were also filled with anger, but they were still somewhat wary of the oppressive aura from before. Like Fang Daokun, they raised their hands slightly and left with a flick of their sleeves.
As Zhou Xingdou watched their retreating figures, the smile on his lips vanished, and his eyes turned cold. If it weren't for his own sect, he wouldn't have been so good-natured.
Ning Yue looked at Zhou Xingdou's face and shook her head slightly, reminding him:
“What you did just now was wrong. You shouldn’t have admitted that you didn’t respect the Hall Master, Peak Master, and Dao Master, nor should you have humiliated them like that.”
Zhou Xingdou did not give Ning Yueze a direct answer, but instead looked at him seriously and said calmly:
“Aunt Ning, you place too much importance on the rule of rites and laws, which is why you have been slow to break through the gates of the Supreme Being.”
Ning Yue frowned slightly upon hearing this, but before she could think further, Luo Hanyi, who was rushing towards her, interrupted her thoughts.
This was the first time Luo Hanyi had been separated from Ning Yueze for so long. From childhood to adulthood, she had almost never left Ning Yueze's side. Even when she went out to train, Ning Yueze always took her with her. In her heart, Ning Yueze was no different from family.
Witnessing the desolation of the Zhou family made her miss this relative even more. Uncharacteristically, she acted like a little girl, nestling tenderly into Ning Yueze's arms.
"Elder Ning, I miss you so much."
Zhou Xingdou raised an eyebrow slightly, after all, his icy senior sister's image seemed to be collapsing more and more ever since he won her over.
The two stunning beauties embracing each other created a truly beautiful scene. Stephen Chow wasn't jealous at all; he simply glanced at the opposing, continuous jade peaks with an appreciative eye. The scenery was indeed breathtaking.
Ning Yue did not blame Luo Hanyi for her abrupt actions, showing no seriousness as she did towards Zhou Xingdou, but rather a hint of indulgence:
"What happened? Did you suffer some injustice on your way to Tai Shi?"
However, Ning Yue knew that there were many people and eyes around at the mountain gate, so she gently patted Luo Hanyi's back and said to Zhou Xingdou:
"Let's go back to the peak first. I also have something to discuss with you."
"May I bring my carriage into the sect?"
Zhou Xingdou was also a bit troubled by Ning Yueze's integrity. He didn't need to ask about it even when he went to the Universal Holy Land, but he had to ask Elder Ning when he returned to his own sect.
Ning Yue glanced at the nine terrifying, sky-covering ancient dragons and frowned.
"Your dragon is too big and too ferocious, it definitely won't do!"
Actually, she didn't want to make things difficult for Zhou Xingdou, but this dragon was indeed too big and too ferocious. If it went berserk after entering the sect, no one could control it for a while, and the damage would be enormous.
Upon hearing Ning Yueze's words, Zhou Xingdou was not annoyed at all. Instead, his eyes lit up and he teased her:
"It is indeed too big; Aunt Ning will need to get used to it gradually."
Ning Yueze's intuition told her that Zhou Xingdou's words were not kind, but she couldn't explain why, so she could only glare at Zhou Xingdou fiercely.
