Chapter 574: Chapter 574: I’ll kill every person from Penglai I meet

Hai Fu remained silent as he silently walked over to Lu Xiao’s side.

Seeing his own steward defect to Lu Xiao, Situ Xian nearly choked with rage.

"Hai Fu! I’ve nurtured you for nearly twenty years!"

"Over these years, I’ve provided for your food and clothing; all your cultivation resources came from me, and you actually dare to betray me!"

"Damn ingrate!"

Situ Xian was truly a bit unhinged.

Previously, when Zhan Qingyun sided with Lu Xiao, he was just a bit annoyed.

Although Zhan Qingyun was the Academy Director of the First Academy, that was all there was to it. In Situ Xian’s view, Zhan Qingyun was like an employee under him.

It’s normal for employees to switch jobs.

But Hai Fu was different; he had known Hai Fu for twenty years.

Before achieving Above Half-Immortal, they were friends.

"You’ve nurtured me for twenty years?" Hai Fu was obviously also completely infuriated by Situ Xian’s words.

"Ask yourself, what contributions have you made to the development of the Royal City over these years?"

"The entire Royal City, from its founding to its development, which part wasn’t built by me step by step?"

"You provided for my food and clothing?"

"Situ Xian, do you have no shame? Can you say that with good conscience?"

"All the resources you now wield are from the Royal City, and the Royal City was built by me."

"If anyone’s an ingrate, it should be you!"

Hai Fu’s words left Situ Xian somewhat at a loss for words.

Indeed, he hadn’t participated in anything regarding the Royal City over the years; it was pretty much all Hai Fu’s doing.

"Without me, would the Royal City still be the Royal City? It would’ve been overrun long ago!" Situ Xian retorted once more.

You, Hai Fu, have great merit, but that’s all because I was holding the fort.

Without me, would the Royal City have its present prosperity?

"Fine, fine, you’re amazing, you’re great, everything you say is right, so now, make your choice," Hai Fu said, no longer bothering to waste words with Situ Xian.

I’ve done all I could do, and I’ve said everything that could and couldn’t be said.

Even I personally took a stand on Lu Xiao’s side.

If you continue to be obstinate, then there’s nothing to be done about it, right?

"I..." Situ Xian began to speak but stopped after only one word.

"City King Situ, would you really be swayed by a mere steward? That would be quite the surprise," Mei Yue said, with a light sneer at the situation.

Situ Xian’s facial muscles twitched, damn it, Mei Yue wasn’t a decent person either.

I’m already this humiliated, and you still trample over my face.

You just want to provoke me into choosing you for the sake of my reputation!

I refuse to!

I, Situ Xian, may not have Hai Fu’s brains, but it doesn’t mean I’m stupid.

Although Hai Fu has trampled my dignity to dust, he is nonetheless the only friend I’ve had in my life.

Moreover, Hai Fu is right about one thing—since Lu Xiao has not fled, he must be relying on something.

"I’ll let a steward sway me, so what! What’s it to you?"

"You, surnamed Mei, I’m giving you a chance; leave the Royal City right now."

"And from now on, if anyone from Penglai dares to come to the Royal City, I’ll kill every single one of them," Situ Xian pointed at Mei Yue and started to lash out.

Already having chosen Lu Xiao was as good as having a complete fallout with Penglai.

Thus, there was no need to be polite to Mei Yue anymore.

He had long held a grudge against Mei Yue and Penglai Holy Land for constantly causing trouble in the Royal City.

Being pointed at and scolded by Situ Xian, Mei Yue’s face also darkened a bit.

But now, he could only bear with it.

There were only him and Mei Qianqiu on the scene, completely outnumbered.

"Very well Situ Xian, since that’s the case, you just wait and see. Wait for my Penglai Holy Land to flatten your Royal City!" Mei Yue huffed angrily, then turned his head and called out to Mei Qianqiu, "Qianqiu, let’s go."

Just as Mei Qianqiu was about to move, Lu Xiao’s figure suddenly flashed.

A terrifying surge of superpower and Inner Qi instantly erupted.
