It's clearly a crossover game, but the system insists it's a pirate game.

The scene was dry.

Zhou Ye looked around and greeted everyone, "Those who came to celebrate the birthday, please take your seats. Those who don't want to eat can go back. Anyway, my wife said that if you want to know the whereabouts of Xie Xun and the Dragon-Slaying Saber, then bring a price to me. As long as it's worth the Dragon-Slaying Saber, I guarantee I'll even draw you a sea chart."

After speaking, Zhou Ye looked at Zhang Sanfeng, preparing to ask when the banquet would begin, when suddenly his brow twitched. He took a light step, instantly crossing the entire square and arriving at the open space on the other side. But just two seconds after he arrived, a figure suddenly emerged and crashed into him, as if he had hit a steel plate, and was knocked over several times by the recoil.

Zhou Ye glanced down and then chuckled: "Isn't this the Shit-Eating Hero? Long time no see, are you still eating it?"

Lu Zhangke was initially stunned, but upon hearing the words "Shit-Eating Hero," he instantly perked up. He jumped up, his eyes widening for a moment before regaining their sight. Then, he stared intently at Zhou Ye: "Did you do this, kid?"

Zhou Ye spread his hands: "It was me, but I really didn't expect you to catch it with your mouth..." (See the end of Chapter 35)

Lu Zhangke's face flushed instantly. He raised his hand, ready to deliver a hard blow to Zhou Ye, but just as he raised his arm, Zhou Ye moved faster and slapped him across the right cheek.

There was no internal energy, only raw power, which fully demonstrated what numerical values ​​meant.

Lu Zhangke broke all the paving stones in the Zhenwu Hall square and plowed out a trench.

"This is... Lu Zhangke, one of the Two Elders of Xuanming!"

Others might not be able to tell, but Zhang Cuishan, who was his enemy, recognized him at a glance.

Although the Xuanming Elders haven't been active in the martial arts world for long, their reputation is still considerable. The two brothers have harmed many people with their Xuanming Divine Palm technique.

Zhang Sanfeng narrowed his eyes. Back when he went down the mountain to cause trouble, these two brothers probably didn't exist yet, but their master, the Hundred Losses Taoist, had indeed died at his hands.

That slap was enough to kill Lu Zhangke, but he didn't die immediately either. It just goes to show that practicing martial arts does have some use.

At least it can take a beating!

Zhou Ye didn't shave; instead, he walked back step by step. When he passed the five major sects, he even smiled at them, but his smile made the people of the five major sects shudder.

The shaving just now was naturally mistaken for some kind of light-footed skill, along with that slap, and the force of it...

A master! An absolute master!

"Senior brother!!!"

Hebi Weng also jumped out, but this time Zhou Ye did not make a move. Instead, Di Yun, with a series of afterimages, blocked his way. After using a few strange moves, he slapped Hebi Weng on the forehead with a palm strike, and with a burst of internal force, Hebi Weng collapsed.

The Xuanming Elders are now a thing of the past. Di Yun didn't leave; instead, he immediately started touching the corpse. Broken silver? Take it! Xuanming Divine Palm? Naturally, take that too.

Touching the corpse in front of the five major sects—no, the six major sects—Di Yun felt no psychological burden whatsoever. Afterward, he calmly put the loose silver into his pocket, and as for the Xuanming Divine Palm technique, he only read a few pages before handing it to Zhou Ye.

Zhou Ye didn't even look at it before putting it away.

Then the family went to the banquet hall, chatting and laughing. It was getting late, and if the banquet didn't start soon, half of the kids in the family would be crying from hunger!

"Everyone says the Zhou family is both righteous and wicked, but I never expected... I never expected..."

Zhou Ye didn't hear what others thought, and even if he did, he wouldn't care. These two were Zhou family's spoils of war, weren't they?

"Do you know those two old men?"

"Ah, I've met them before. They were the ones I met when I went to Bright Summit. I thought they were just two old lackeys, but I didn't expect them to be so famous."

Zhou Ye truly never expected that the two old lackeys he encountered back then were actually the Xuanming Elders.

……

"That's all for today, everyone..."

Zhang Sanfeng tilted his head to the side, and Song Yuanqiao helped Zhang Cuishan and his wife away. Mo Shenggu pushed his third brother away, and then Zhang Sanfeng said in a low voice, "This old Taoist is not feeling well today and is not suitable to entertain guests. Please leave. Of course, if there are still any stubborn ones, this old Taoist... would not mind giving them a little exercise."

None of the five major sects remained; they all descended the mountain.

If only Zhang Cuishan's family knew Xie Xun's whereabouts, they certainly wouldn't have left so easily today. Now that the Zhou family has also joined the fray, there's really no need to offend Wudang to the death.

Compared to Wudang, the Zhou family is easier to approach in the eyes of the five major sects.

But Zhou Ye never expected that the first to come knocking would be the Emei Sect. Looking at Abbess Miejue, who was silent with her eyes closed, Zhou Ye couldn't sit still for a while: "Abbess, can't we just talk? It's not right to just sit here like this."

Abbess Miejue sighed: "I've been thinking about what price the Emei Sect would have to pay to get information about Xie Xun from you. Unfortunately, after thinking about it, I haven't come up with a suitable one. Why don't you suggest it? As long as the Emei Sect can offer something, we will not hesitate."

Zhou Ye tapped his fingers on the table and chuckled, "What if I said I wanted a handwritten copy of the Nine Yin Manual hidden inside the Heaven Sword?"

Abbess Miejue's face suddenly darkened, her lips trembled a few times, and finally she slowly asked, "How much else do you know?"

"They know quite a lot, at least as much as you, the leader of the Emei Sect."

Zhou Ye stopped tapping the table: "Master, if you want the Dragon-Slaying Saber, all you'll do is clash swords and take out the Nine Yin Manual from the Heaven-Reliant Sword. You won't need the 'Martial Arts Manual of Yue Fei' inside the Dragon-Slaying Saber. At least you won't be leading the girls of your sect to conquer the world, will you?"

Abbess Miejue thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, but you must swear that your Zhou family will never be an enemy of Emei."

"Sure!" Zhou Ye agreed readily. "There's no conflict of interest between us, and my Zhou family isn't that free to do anything."

"Now can you tell me the whereabouts of the Dragon-Slaying Saber?"

"No need, nun. If you want to retrieve something, you don't necessarily need the Dragon-Slaying Saber. Besides, I have a trick that allows me to retrieve the item and restore the Heaven-Reliant Sword."

*Smack!*

Abbess Miejue was a decisive person; she slammed the Heaven-Slaying Sword directly onto the table...

The Heaven Sword was handed over to Zhou Ye, but Abbess Miejue would not leave, nor would she allow the Heaven Sword to escape her sight for even a second.

Moreover, she was quite curious about how Zhou Ye would disassemble the Heaven-Slaying Sword without the Dragon-Slaying Saber.
