Chapter 119: The Most Powerful Elder! Huawu? Wuhua?

EndlessFantasy Translation

Although Duanmu Sheng and Mingshi Yin disdained this tortoise technique, they would not dispute their master's words. Moreover, the Evil Sky Pavilion was waning. With the injection of new blood, it might be restored to its former glory.

Mingshi Yin turned and looked at his master furtively. 'He doesn't look like his life is nearing its limit at all. In fact, he looks livelier day by day and is filled with vitality.'

Hua Wudao pondered about this but still could not make up his mind.

Lu Zhou said in a deep voice, "You have two choices, and you can only pick one. You're the first person under the heavens to be given such a treatment by the Evil Sky Pavilion. My patience is limited. I want an answer after a count of ten."

"And if I don't have an answer?" Hua Wudao's heart raced.

Before Lu Zhou could reply, Mingshi Yin said, "Then you'll suffer the same fate as Fan Xiuwen. You'll be imprisoned in the Evil Sky Pavilion until you've thought things through. However, since you've seen through life and death, I'm sure this won't matter to you."

"…"

"Also, the Evil Sky Pavilion doesn't have much, but we have a lot of rooms for lodging. We have the north, south, east, and west pavilions. We have many dilapidated residences halfway up the mountain. We have the Cave of Reflection behind the mountain as well, it's cold there. Also, don't think you'll be able to escape. Even if the ten great elites show up together, they won't be able to break the Golden Court Mountain's barrier!" Mingshi Yin prattled on with a smile on his face.

His words made Zhou Jifeng and Pan Zhong's hearts race.

'Mister Fourth's words are truly devastating. This is even more terrifying than killing a person!'

Hua Wudao was a distinguished and accomplished person, and he would never cling abjectly to life. Otherwise, he would not have shown up here. However, someone like him would care about his pride and dignity.

"At that time, I'll make sure every cultivator under the heavens knows that Yun Sect's Hua Wudao is an untrustworthy person. He came to the Evil Sky Pavilion and lost a wager but would not pay up!"

"…" Hua Wudao felt even more speechless. There were many who knew about his visit to the Evil Sky Pavilion. Otherwise, he would not have had to resign from his position as Yun Sect's elder. Everything started and ended with this knot in his heart. He would not have any regrets.

Little Yuan'er giggled and said, "I'll start counting, then." She was worried that Hua Wudao did not hear her so she repeated, "I'll start counting… Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven. Six. Five. Four. Three. Two. One. Time's up! What's your decision?"

"…"

'Who counts this fast?'

Before Hua Wudao even had time to think, the countdown had ended.

Everyone's eyes in the Evil Sky Pavilion's great hall, including Lu Zhou, were trained on Hua Wudao.

Silence descended on the great hall again.

Finally, Hua Wudao shook his head and heaved a long sigh. "Forget it!"

Upon seeing this, Hua Wudao's disciples fell to his knees immediately. "Master, you shouldn't…"

Hua Wudao looked at his disciples, but he did not chide him like before. Instead, he said, "You should return to Yun Sect."

"Huh?"

"From this day onward, you're no longer my disciple. There are many elders in the Yun Sect. I'm sure one of them will be willing to teach you. When you return, tell them that Hua Wudao is dead."

"Master!"

"Get lost!"

The middle-aged man wanted to say something, but Hua Wudao raised his leg and kicked him. He reprimanded him, "I said, get lost!" His shout created a soundwave that pushed the middle-aged man away.

Helpless, the middle-aged man could only get to his feet and respectfully salute Hua Wudao.

Mingshi Yin said with a smile, "I'll see you down the mountain… However, if you want to stay, I'm sure my master won't object to it. After all, the Golden Court Mountain is huge. We don't mind having another person here."

The middle-aged man shuddered. "I want to leave the mountain. I want to leave now."

Mingshi Yin clicked his tongue at the middle-aged man and motioned him over before leaving the great hall.

The two of them left the great hall.

Hua Wudao cupped his fists. "My disciple is slightly foolish, I hope you won't hold it against him, Pavilion Master, and spare his life."

Lu Zhou stroked his beard as he sat down and said, "We choose to walk on different paths. Please sit."

Lu Zhou said 'Please'! This had never happened in the Evil Sky Pavilion. It could be seen that he valued Hua Wudao.

Hua Wudao took a seat.

Lu Zhou regarded him with a curious look before he said calmly, "You rather join the Evil Sky Pavilion than tell me who the mastermind behind the Fish Dragon Village incident is…"

"Please forgive me, Pavilion Master."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll use torture to interrogate you in the future?" Lu Zhou asked calmly.

This was the Evil Sky Pavilion, after all. They were all great villains. No matter how evil an act was, it would not be surprising to see it here.

Hua Wudao shook his head and sighed. "If it comes to that, I can only ask for death."

"You're different from Fan Xiuwen. He was controlled and doesn't fear death. You're much luckier than him," Lu Zhou said.

Hua Wudao remained silent.

At this point, Hua Wudao's choice was clear.

"Ding! Recruited a subordinate. Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm cultivator, Hua Wudao. Loyalty: 5%"

Zhou Jifeng and Pan Zhong were courteous. They cupped their fists toward Hua Wudao and said, "Greetings, Elder Hua."

Hua Wudao's old face flushed red. He did not know if he should respond to the greeting or not. He felt awkward.

At this moment, Mingshi Yin had returned from the foot of the mountain. When he saw the extremely awkward Hua Wudao, he said, "You're just worried about the ridicule from the world. That's an easy problem to solve. You should change your name. The old Hua Wudao has died in the Evil Sky Pavilion."

"…"

The others nodded.

Mingshi Yin had a point.

"How about the name Huawu or Wuhua?" Mingshi Yin said teasingly.

"…"

Hua Wudao's name slightly conflicted with Ji Tiandao's name, after all.

"It's but a name. I won't mind being called anything…" Hua Wudao's mind was a mess right now. All he wanted now was to be left alone in a corner. He was not in the mood to fret upon such matters at the moment.

Little Yuan'er walked over and said, "Master, a letter from Jiang Aijian."

"Bring it here." Lu Zhou had a feeling that this letter contained important messages that should not be read out loud.

Little Yuan'er passed him the letter respectfully.

Lu Zhou opened it casually. He read the letter.

"The mastermind behind the Fish Dragon Village incident is the Second Prince. The main culprit of the battle at Measure Heaven River is General Wei Zhuoyan of Changning. His accomplice is the leader of the Black Knights, Fan Xiuwen. Old senior, I've paid a huge price to obtain this piece of information… To be honest, if you don't compensate me with a nice sword, I'll be very sad."

With this information, everything was clear now. However, nary a ripple could be seen on Lu Zhou's face. In truth, he had his guesses about the matters which Fan Xiuwen and Hua Wudao would not talk about. Jiang Aijian's letter merely confirmed his suspicions. He waved his hand. The letter was reduced to dust immediately.

"Master, what did it say?" Little Yuan'er inquired.

"The mastermind behind the battle at Measure Heaven River…" Lu Zhou answered honestly.

When he heard this, Hua Wudao fell from his seat. His face was ghastly pale, and his eyes were wide open.

Lu Zhou said indifferently, "Bring Elder Hua away, and let him rest."

"Understood."

Little Yuan'er was puzzled. "It's only the mastermind, why are you so nervous? Aren't you being too dramatic?"

Lu Zhou nodded. If it had been a mortal or a great cultivator, things would have been simple. He could just deal with it according to the cultivation world's rules. However, he did not expect that a prince was involved in this. The prince's disputes should not have involved the civilians.

Lu Zhou would not underestimate the Imperial Family's power. After all, the Imperial Family was what kept Great Yan stable all these years. The soldiers and officers who guarded the corners of the empire and the great cultivators who operated in the open and in the dark formed the foundation of Great Yan's stability. It was no wonder Hua Wudao was reluctant to divulge that information.

Lu Zhou finally said, "Tell Jiang Aijian that I've prepared a nice sword for him. He's to come here and collect it."

Chapter 120: He Who Follows His Heart Is Not Ordinary

EndlessFantasy Translation

When the nice sword was mentioned, Little Yuan'er felt wronged. She mumbled, "Master, you're giving him a good weapon just because he gave you two pieces of worthless information, and I, your disciple, have nothing."

"Impudent!" Lu Zhou deliberately raised his voice. This was not the first time he had said this.

"This disciple knows that she's wrong." Little Yuan'er immediately lowered her head.

"That weapon belongs to the Imperial Family in the first place. There's no use for me in keeping it," Lu Zhou said.

"Oh." Little Yuan'er nodded.

Lu Zhou stood up slowly and headed to the hidden chamber.

"Rest well, master."

After Lu Zhou disappeared from sight, Mingshi Yin said, "Little Junior Sister, why are you so anxious about this? You know master loves you the most. Even I was given a weapon, so there's no way that he'll forget about you. My Separation Hook and Scabbard is a fine weapon so I'm sure that he'll give you a nice weapon as well."

"Old Fourth has a point. Moreover, with your talent, entering the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm is only a matter of time. When that time comes, master will surely give you a weapon that's even better than my Overlord Spear!"

"Hmph! Goodbye!" Little Yuan'er turned around and left in a huff.

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng exchanged glances.

Pan Zhong cupped his fists and said, "I think Miss Ninth is angered by the sight of the Separation Hook and Scabbard and the Overlord Spear… Uh, Mister Third, Mister Fourth, I suddenly remember that my Six Yang Technique isn't initiated yet. I'll be taking my leave now. When he sensed the unusual looks Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng were giving him, he simply came up with an excuse and left the great hall in a hurry.

Zhou Jifeng who had brought Hua Wudao to his lodge to rest was saved from this situation.

"Old Fourth, let's go."

"…"

…

Lu Zhou went into the hidden chamber and looked at the mysterious box. Then, he shook his head. 'This thing can even withstand a blow from Unnamed. Clearly, heaven-grade weapons are useless against it. I think this box can only be opened with a special key.' He nodded calmly, 'Old Fourth has many ideas. Maybe I should leave this box to him.'

Since Lu Zhou had purchased this box from the system's shop, he was not worried about others coveting it. After a while, his attention drifted to his remaining merit points on the system dashboard.

4,762 points.

Lu Zhou had obtained the Five Energies Universe avatar through the lucky draw. The Six Recombinant Trigram Lines was sold at 12,000. He could not afford it now. If he earned merit points through conventional means, he did not think he would be able to afford it anytime soon.

Several ideas appeared in Lu Zhou's mind and he nodded in satisfaction. Then, he called up the Heavenly Writing's interface and began to comprehend it.

Six hours later.

Lu Zhou finally stopped comprehending the Heavenly Writing. Compared to his previous sessions, currently, it felt as though he had entered a state of immersive emptiness. The unfamiliar scripts were now embedded in his mind. With a simple thought, the scripts would appear.

'It's alright for me to not understand them so long as the feeling's right.'

At this moment, Little Yuan'er's voice rang from outside the hidden chamber. "Master, there's a reply from Jiang Aijian."

"What did he say?"

"He said he won't be coming. He said the Evil Sky Pavilion is too dangerous of a place to visit, and it would be great if the nice sword could be delivered to him," Little Yuan'er replied.

Lu Zhou nodded calmly. He had expected this.

Little Yuan'er grumbled, "He doesn't know how to appreciate favors. Should I go to Runan and drag him here?"

"There's no need for that." Lu Zhou walked out of the hidden chamber with his hands on his back. "He loves his life very much. It's only natural that he doesn't want to come here."

"He thinks too highly of himself." Little Yuan'er scoffed.

"Jiang Aijian isn't an ordinary person."

When Little Yuan'er heard this, a curious expression appeared on her face as she asked, "Not an ordinary person?"

"Since he's capable of accessing the palace archives, he can't be an ordinary person," Lu Zhou said in an even-keeled tone.

"Who is he then?"

"One who follows his heart is not an ordinary person." Lu Zhou smiled faintly. With a wave of sleeves, he left the great and made his way to the north pavilion where the prisoners were held.

Little Yuan'er, naturally, followed her master when she saw him leaving.

In no time at all, Lu Zhou arrived outside the room where Fan Xiuwen was being imprisoned.

Two female cultivators were guarding the door. Although their cultivation bases were nothing to boast of, they managed to look intimidating.

"Pavilion Master." The two female cultivators bowed.

"Open the door."

"Understood."

The door opened. Lu Zhou walked into the gloomy room. There were miscellaneous objects strewn everywhere he looked. This room had been the Evil Sky Pavilion's storeroom before this. It had been hastily converted into a lockup, and it suited the purpose quite well.

Fan Xiuwen was bound in the center of the room. His hair was disheveled, he no longer looked like the majestic leader of the Black Knights. When the door was opened, the faint light from outside shone on his face so he could only see Lu Zhou's silhouette. He chuckled weakly and struggled to get words out of his mouth. "I-is this.. all there is to the Evil Sky Pavilion? I'm afraid it's not enough to make… me talk."

Lu Zhou stood with his hands on his back as he nodded. "I know the truth."

Fan Xiuwen was visibly shocked. All his listlessness seemed to have disappeared at this moment. His eyes widened as he exclaimed, "Impossible!"

"Great General of Changning," Lu Zhou said. He did not mention the Second Prince.

Fan Xiuwen shuddered when he heard these words. These words proved that this mighty old man had discovered the truth. After a moment of silence, he said calmly, "I'm impressed."

Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "Wei Zhuoyan isn't enough to make you bow. Apart from that, there's no way the Second Prince is capable of receiving your unwavering loyalty. There must be someone else who's strong enough to manipulate the grand leader of the Black Knights."

"You…" Fan Xiuwen who had calmed down began to shake again. He was so agitated that his face and ears were red. His voice was subdued as he asked, "How did you manage this?" Even as the leader of the Black Knights, he had no choice but to lower his pride.

"Do I need to tell my prisoner how I managed to accomplish such a feat?"

"…"

Lu Zhou placed his hands on his back as he stared at Fan Xiuwen. "I'd like to know whose orders you are following."

"I don't know," Fan Xiuwen replied.

"Do you think I won't be able to find out just because you refuse to tell me?" Lu Zhou stroked his beard calmly and continued, "Regardless of who it is, they must be a trusted aid of the Second Prince."

Fan Xiuwen's eyes widened.

Lu Zhou continued slowly, "It's a woman, isn't it?"

"…"

"A woman who's skilled in witchcraft," Lu Zhou added.

"Enough!" Fan Xiuwen's mental defenses crumbled completely. A furious and stubborn expression flitted across his face for a moment. However, in the next moment, it seemed as though he had wilted as he pleaded, "Please spare her, I beg you…"

Lu Zhou regarded Fan Xiuwen with a complicated expression on his face. Who would have thought that the former number one person on the blacklist, the current watchdog of the Imperial Family, who did not fear death nor torture was doing this all for the sake of a woman?

Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "Fan Xiuwen… Tell me, who is she?"

Fan Xiuwen shook his head desperately. He had a fierce and determined expression on his face. "I can't tell you, I won't tell you… I won't say anything even if I have to die."

Lu Zhou found this strange. In truth, the target's identity was clear now. It would not make much of a difference even if Fan Xiuwen revealed her name. Why was Fan Xiuwen doggedly protecting this secret with his life? It did not escape his notice that Fan Xiuwen's eyes suddenly shone with faint blue light for a moment before it quickly returned to normal.

Suddenly, the voice of the Derived Moon Palace's female cultivators could be heard from outside. Pavilion Master, something's happening to Miss Fifth!"

Chapter 121: Releasing Zhao Yue

EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Zhou kept his eyes on Fan Xiuwen. When he heard the news, he said calmly, "How unfortunate." After he finished speaking, he turned around and left.

The door closed again, plunging the room into darkness.

In the pitch-dark room, Fan Xiuwen's eyes flickered with a faint bluish glow again. However, it only lasted a second before it disappeared.

…

Lu Zhou walked out of the north pavilion and saw a flustered Little Yuan'er. "Master, quick, quick, quick… Fifth Senior Sister is going mad!"

Lu Zhou shook his head. His expression remained the same as he said, "There's no need to panic."

The two of them walked to the Cave of Reflection that was located behind the mountain. When they arrived at the Cave of Reflection, many Derived Moon Palace's female cultivators were already gathered there. Even Hua Wudao was watching nearby.

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng stood at the entrance like guardian deities.

Hua Wudao said with a sigh, "I didn't think there's such an evil technique in this world… To think it's witchcraft."

Mingshi Yin asked, "Elder Hua, can you help her?"

Hua Wudao shook his head and said, "I'm afraid the Pavilion Master is the only person who can undo this spell."

As soon as Hua Wudao finished speaking, the Derived Moon Palace's female cultivators bowed in unison. "Pavilion Master."

Hua Wudao hastily turned around. He put his pride away and said, "Pavilion Master."

"There's no need for formalities." Lu Zhou waved his hand and walked into the Cave of Reflection with his hands on his back.

Zhao Yue was behaving like a madwoman at the moment. She was repeatedly running into the walls of the cave.

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng had covered the walls with a gentle energy to prevent her from fatally hurting herself. However, before they arrived, Zhao Yue had already managed to bruise her face swollen, and her hair was a complete mess. Between her eyes, the scarlet lotus was glowing with increasing intensity.

"Master, Fifth Junior Sister is being controlled by the witchcraft spell. Hurry up and do something about it, master!"

"Junior Sister Zhao Yue's crime isn't worth the loss of her life. Please have mercy, master!"

Lu Zhou looked around him and said, "She brought this upon herself." If she had obediently stayed on Golden Court Mountain, she would not have been afflicted by this witchcraft spell.

Zhao Yue was delirious. She had a murderous look on her face as she spouted nonsensical words to everyone she saw.

"I'm going to kill you."

"I'll kill you!"

"Kill! Kill!"

Zhao Yue lunged toward Lu Zhou. Although her cultivation base had been sealed, Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng, naturally, still would not let her do anything to their master.

Two vines grew out of the ground and bound Zhao Yue. Mingshi Yin bowed and said, "Fifth Junior Sister is delirious and spouting words that are not her own. She must be under the influence of the peculiar witchcraft spell. I've asked Pan Zhong, and he told me the spellcaster is the only one who can break the spell." He sighed before he said, "Otherwise… In any case, I don't believe it. Master, please do something!"

"Where's Pan Zhong?"

"He's in the south pavilion, looking up something in the books," a female cultivator answered from outside the cave.

Hua Wudao said, "Pan Zhong's not wrong. This spell is extremely evil. It muddles the heart and is capable of turning her into a puppet. Fortunately, Zhao Yue has an amazing fortitude and a stable cultivation base. It must not be easy for her to hold on until now."

Lu Zhou frowned slightly. He looked at Zhao Yue who was in a frenzy. Her eyes were blank. He barked, "The audacity!" He struck Zhao Yue's shoulder with his palm. With his Brahman Sea Eight Meridians cultivation base, the others did not suspect anything when his Primal Qi surged. Instead, their attention focused on Zhao Yue. They looked nervous, clearly worried about her.

Lu Zhou had already injected some of his Primal Qi into Zhao Yue's meridians. Her eight extraordinary meridians were under the witchcraft power's complete control. Unlike Mingshi Yin, Zhao Yue's entire body was filled with witchcraft power! It launched itself at Lu Zhou's Primal Qi at the first moment.

"Hm?" Lu Zhou's Brahman Sea Eight Meridians cultivation base seemed extremely weak at this juncture. The Primal Qi he had just released was completely devoured by the witchcraft power. The witchcraft power flowed along her meridians and pushed its way toward Lu Zhou's palm.

Zhao Yue suddenly opened her eyes. She wore a peculiar smile on her face and said, "I finally found you, you old thing!"

"Break!" Lu Zhou barked and pushed. He was not sure if it was a product of his will or if it was due to the danger, he found himself in the state of comprehension when he was studying the Heavenly Writing. His mind was clear, and his heart was calm. The Heavenly Writing's extraordinary power seemed to have activated as it swiftly converged in his palm. He felt as though he was holding a block of ice.

Bang!

Zhao Yue flew backward from the impact.

Mingshi Yin's energy cushioned her crash on the stone wall.

Zhao Yue spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. At the same time, the lotus on her forehead disappeared. She fell to her knees and supported her weight with her hands. She struggled for a moment to lift her head before revealing a strange smile on her face. She said to Lu Zhou, "You win this time, old thing."

Thud!

Zhao Yue slumped to the ground immediately.

The Cave of Reflection was silent.

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng wondered if they should help Zhao Yue up. After all, she seemed to be cursing their master just a second ago. They were worried the old man would be angered by this.

Lu Zhou said indifferently, "Bring her to the south pavilion."

"Understood!" Mingshi Yin hastily carried Zhao Yue away.

The lotus on Zhao Yue's forehead had indeed faded away. At the same time, her Primal Qi was circulating of its own accord.

Mingshi Yin was overjoyed. He said, "Master, I think the spell on Junior Sister is broken!"

Outside the Cave of Reflection, the people cheered loudly.

The female cultivators' wore an expression of awe on their faces.

Hua Wudao said with a shocked expression, "To think that the Pavilion Master is capable of breaking such an evil spell! My horizons have truly widened!"

At this moment, Pan Zhong came running with a stack of books in his hands. He cried out, "I found it! I found it! Everything that has anything to do with the spell is right here!"

"…"

Pan Zhong came to a halt and looked around him. "Uh… is she alright now?"

Everyone else rolled their eyes.

'The sun would have set a long time ago if we waited for you.'

Zhao Yue was brought to the south pavilion by two female cultivators.

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng walked up to Lu Zhou.

"Master, was Junior Sister Zhao Yue being controlled earlier?" Mingshi Yin asked with a lingering fear in his voice.

"Her heart was controlled by witchcraft."

Hua Wudao walked up to them slowly. He cupped his fists slightly at Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou asked calmly, "Do you have something to say, Elder Hua?"

"The spell on Zhao Yue has been lifted. I think that person won't be making any moves in the near future. When the spell is broken, if the spellcaster attempts to control the target again, but they'll be hit by the recoil."

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "Elder Hua, do you know anything about this person?"

Hua Wudao heaved a long sigh and said, "I've only heard stories about this person."

"I'm genuinely curious. You would rather stay here than rat out the Second Prince. Are you really doing this to keep the peace in Great Yan?" Lu Zhou asked as he stared at Hua Wudao intently.

"Uh…" Hua Wudao's expression froze for a moment before he shook his head and said, "I'm afraid only the sect master and the Second Prince knows about this."

Lu Zhou glanced at him and said, "So, the Yun Sect really has a dirty deal with the Imperial Family."

"…" Hua Wudao's wizened flushed red from embarrassment.

Lu Zhou said to Little Yuan'er, "Send word to Jiang Aijian. Tell him that the nice sword I'm giving him is worth the trouble of him coming here to retrieve it."

'Jiang Aijian?' Hua Wudao found the name familiar. Jiang Aijian was a skilled swordsman, but even then, he was only a third-rate character in the cultivation world. Why would the Evil Sky Pavilion value him?

Chapter 122: Meeting Jiang Aijian Again

EndlessFantasy Translation

"I'll contact Jiang Aijian immediately," Little Yuan'er said.

Lu Zhou walked with his hands on his back as he returned to the Evil Sky Pavilion.

…

Shortly after being brought to the south pavilion, Zhao Yue regained consciousness. The familiar environment and memories returned to her immediately.

"Miss Fifth, y-you're awake!" A female cultivator exclaimed in shock.

"I… What happened? Shouldn't I be in the Cave of Reflection?" Zhao Yue asked in confusion as she struggled to sit up.

The Derived Moon Palace's female cultivator next to Zhao Yue recounted what had happened earlier.

Upon hearing this, she asked incredulously, "You're telling me that master broke the witchcraft Restriction for me?"

"Yes, Pavilion Master came and broke the witchcraft spell with just a strike of his palm," the Derived Moon Palace's female cultivator prepared some hot water as she said, "The witchcraft spell was terrifying. Fortunately, Mister Third and Mister Fourth arrived just in time."

Zhao Yue sighed softly. She tried to circulate the Primal Qi from her dantian's sea of Qi. The moment she attempted it, she felt sore all over.

"Miss Fifth, the witchcraft Restriction has just been lifted. It's best for you to rest for now. There's no need to rush your cultivation and circulate your Primal Qi. They'll recover in due time."

Zhao Yue nodded and lay down.

…

Half a day later.

In the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Lu Zhou heard two notifications.

"Ding! Breaking Zhao Yue's witchcraft Restriction. Reward: 1,000 merit points."

"Ding! Completed the investigation of the Fish Dragon Village incident and discovered the truth. Reward: 3,000 merit points."

Lu Zhou nodded with satisfaction. Now, he would have to find another way to earn merit points.

While Lu Zhou was contemplating this matter, a Derived Moon Palace's female cultivator walked slowly into the great hall. "Pavilion Master, Jiang Aijian requests an audience. He's at the foot of the mountain."

"Let him up."

"Understood."

Little Yuan'er, Mingshi Yin, and Duanmu Sheng rushed into the hall when they heard the news.

A moment later, escorted by the Derived Moon Palace's female cultivator, Jiang Aijian appeared outside the Evil Sky Pavilion's great hall. During his journey here, he had been looking around curiously, swiveling his head left and right. A blade of grass could be seen between his lips. He asked, "Hey, hey, hey, when did you join the Evil Sky Pavilion? Is it scary here? This is the base of the villains, right? Aren't you afraid at all?"

Jiang Aijian continued to ask a barrage of questions as he made his way to the great hall. "I didn't expect to see so many women in the Evil Sky Pavilion…" He clicked his tongue. "This tree looks nice. The greenstone floor looks nice as well."

"…"

Jiang Aijian's curious expression was still evident on his face as he slowly walked into the great hall.

Mingshi Yin asked, "Is this Jiang Aijian?"

Little Yuan'er replied, "That's him. You can tell by his thick skin."

"Since master regards him highly, he must have some outstanding qualities."

Jiang Aijian walked up to the people inside the hall and waved his hand in a sheepish manner as he said, "Old senior, I'm not used to such a grand welcome. Quick! Give me the nice sword, and I'll be on my way."

Lu Zhou stroked his beard calmly and said, "Jiang Aijian."

"Is there anything, old senior?"

"Sit down and talk."

"There's no need for that. We're old acquaintances now. Just give me the nice sword, and I'll be on my way immediately." Jiang Aijian was feeling less and less confident by the minute.

Lu Zhou waved his hand.

The Derived Moon Palace's female cultivator at the side presented Jiang Aijian with a sword.

Jiang Aijian took the sword with his right hand. In just a blink of an eye…

Crack!

The sword broke.

"No way! Old Senior! Is this what you mean by a nice sword? Is this the sword you meant when you said it's worth the trouble for me to come and personally collect it?" Jiang Aijian looked at the broken sword in shock.

Duanmu Sheng said, "This is the best sword in the Evil Sky Pavilion. It's made from a thousand-year tree, and a master craftsman carved the patterns on it."

"…"

Duanmu Sheng continued to say, "The Evil Sky Pavilion's disciples learned and trained with this sword. Sword Devil Yu Shangrong had once used this sword to kill 1,000 of his enemies." Duanmu Sheng's words were powerful and resonated in the great hall.

"…" Jiang Aijian was speechless. 'These f*cking trolls! This is just a wooden sword, but they're making it sound so amazing! Is there even anyone who would be on my side here?'

Jiang Aijian looked at Lu Zhou and said, "Old senior, my heart's feeling slightly cold right now…"

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "This is indeed a nice sword. You don't want it?"

"Old senior, you said you hate petty men who don't keep their words. No matter how much you hype this wooden sword, it still won't turn into a treasure! Although I'm a sword maniac, my mind is still sound. I don't want this sword," Jiang Aijian said, feeling aggrieved.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"You'll have to pay for it then…"

"…"

Lu Zhou said indifferently, "This sword is extremely precious to the Evil Sky Pavilion, and yet, you just broke it. If you don't pay for the damage, I'm afraid…" He left his sentence unfinished.

Mingshi Yin's Separation Hook and Scabbard and Duanmu Sheng's Overlord Spear flickered brightly at this moment.

Jiang Aijian gulped. He took a step back and waved his hand. "No, no, no. I'll pay for the sword. I will. How much is it?"

Mingshi Yin smirked. "Do you think that it can be valued with money?"

"What would you have me do, then? Should I contact a craftsman to duplicate this sword?"

"That won't do. We want this original wooden sword," Mingshi Yin said.

Jiang Aijian tossed the remaining half of the wooden sword away. He dusted his hands and said, "I get it now. You tricked me, old senior. Let's cut to the chase, shall we?"

Lu Zhou stood up and descended the stairs with his hands on his back. He walked up to Jiang Aijian and said, "This is what I like about dealing with intelligent people."

"If I were intelligent, I wouldn't have been tricked by you," Jiang Aijian muttered to himself.

"Jiang Aijian, you used me numerous times to help you remove obstacles from the palace. You're the first person who's daring enough to behave in such an atrocious manner toward me."

"…" Jiang Aijian's expression changed. He took several steps backward.

At this moment, the Derived Moon Palace's female cultivators stood in a row, blocking the entrance of the Evil Sky Pavilion.

At the same time, an old man whose hair and beard were white slowly walked into view from outside the great hall. As he moved, eight trigrams moved with him under his feet. The six huge scripts radiated with golden light as they circled him.

"Yun Sect's Hua Wudao?" Jiang Aijian was on the verge of tears. He hastily waved his hand. "Old senior, t-this is all a misunderstanding!"

When Little Yuan'er saw this, she clapped her hands happily and said, "Quick, lock the doors! I'd like to see where he's going to run to… Senior Brother, catch him and beat him to a pulp!"

"Oh, my dear aunt, I have no quarrels with you! Why do you have to do this? Why is there a need to use blades and swords?" Jiang Aijian said.

Lu Zhou said calmly, "Stand back, everyone."

"Understood!" The Derived Moon Palace's female cultivators returned to their original positions.

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng stowed their heaven-grade weapons away as well.

The ring of light on Hua Wudao's body vanished instantly. He cupped his fists slightly at Lu Zhou and said, "Is this the cultivator who's said to love swords to the bones and values a sword as much as his life, one of the three great Sword Freaks, Jiang Aijian?"

Jiang Aijian scratched his head sheepishly and said, "Those are all exaggerations… Merely exaggerations."

Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "The name, Jiang Aijian, is only meant to conceal his own identity… Who would've thought that such an unbridled and uninhibited person is the Third Prince of the majestic Great Yan?"

Chapter 123: Palace Conflicts and Bones of the Bais

EndlessFantasy Translation

A deathly stillness pervaded the Evil Sky Pavilion's great hall.

Lu Zhou's words shocked everyone.

'How could this craven, glib, and eccentric man be Great Yan's Third Prince?'

'Nothing about him resembles a person from the palace!'

'Is master getting senile?'

The disciples had different thoughts running through their minds. Naturally, none of them dared to verbalize their thoughts.

Jiang Aijian was momentarily stunned. When he regained his senses, he said, "Old senior, you jest! How can I be the Third Prince?"

Lu Zhou did not expect Jiang Aijian to admit to it immediately. He said calmly, "My disciple, that rascal, Ye Tianxin, spent five years digging through the palace archives, and the conclusion she arrived at was that I'm the one behind the Fish Dragon Village incident. And yet, a rogue cultivator like you managed to discover the truth. How did you manage it?"

Jiang Aijian said, "I've told you. I have friends in the palace."

Hu Wudao who had just entered the great hall asked, "What kind of friend has access to such top-secret information?"

"…" Jiang Aijian was at a loss for words.

Hua Wudao continued, "Greetings, Your Highness." He was from the Yun Sect, after all. He could never dispose of the convoluted and overelaborate etiquette.

Seeing this, who knew if it was a force of habit or a slip of tongue, Jiang Aijian said solemnly, "You may dispense with the formalities." As soon as he realized his mistake, he slapped a hand over his mouth. He said hastily, "A misunderstanding! Truly a misunderstanding! Everything's a mis…" He trailed off with a sigh before he finally said, "Fine…"

Hua Wudao straightened himself respectfully.

Lu Zhou nodded his head and said, "I have time on my hands. I'm not worried you won't admit to it."

Jiang Aijian said with a sigh, "I went to so much trouble to send information to the Evil Sky Pavilion. Old senior, I'm very troubled by this treatment!"

Mingshi Yin interjected, "Cut the nonsense! Since you're a prince, the Evil Sky Pavilion's obstacles were your obstacles as well."

It was clear Jiang Aijian had used the Evil Sky Pavilion. Who would be brave enough to do this? Even Yu Zhenghai, the Sect Master of the Nether Sect, did not dare to use the Evil Sky Pavilion when he was trying to expand his territory even though he could have done so.

Jiang Aijian hastily waved his hands and said, "Foul! I'm crying foul! I told the old senior that I hate the schemes and deceptions in the palace. That's why I left the palace and all the nonsense and disputes there. No matter how many obstacles you removed, old senior, I can't go back to being a prince."

Hua Wudao said, "Your Highness, why did you maintain a connection with the palace, then?"

Jiang Aijian sighed again when he heard Hua Wudao's question. "Although I'm a prince, I do have a few best friends. You can laugh at me if you want, but I admire the lives of the common folks. However, it's difficult to care only about yourself under the skies of Great Yan. I had no choice but to take on the alias of Jiang Aijian and become a free and unfettered rogue cultivator."

"The three Sword Freaks possess cultivation bases in the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm. It's very impressive for Your Highness to attain this as a rogue cultivator," Hua Wudao said respectfully.

"That's only a false reputation…" Jiang Aijian said.

"What a great speech!" Lu Zhou said, "If you have no interest in this, why did you betray your own brother?"

Jiang Aijian was taken aback.

'The mastermind behind the Fish Dragon Village incident is the Second Prince. Not only did you not defend your brother, but you even stabbed him in the back. Who would believe you have no personal interest in this?'

Everyone's eyes were trained on Jiang Aijian at this moment. The current situation resembled a court in session where a criminal was being examined. He, Jiang Aijian, was the main character of this hearing.

Jiang Aijian sighed and said, "The most fickle people under the heavens are the princes."

Inside the palace walls, apart from protocols and rules, nothing else mattered but power and status. There was no place for familial relationships.

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "Back to the topic, do you know why I was investigating the Fish Dragon Village incident?"

"Isn't it for your sixth disciple?" Jiang Aijian asked in confusion.

Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "That's not all… Do you know Ding Fanqiu?"

Hua Wudao frowned slightly when he heard Ding Fanqiu's name. He said, "Ding Fanqiu is a member of my Yun Sect."

Mingshi Yin retorted, "Elder Hua, please be aware of your current position and attitude. Ding Fanqiu impersonated my master and committed crimes everywhere he went. He defamed master and the Evil Sky Pavilion. According to the rules, he should be cut into eight pieces and thrown to the back of the mountain to feed the wild beasts!"

"…" Hua Wudao's old face turned red. When he came to the Evil Sky Pavilion, he had already resigned from his post as a Yun Sect elder.

"I've heard of him," Jiang Aijian said darkly.

"Ding Fanqiu told me all the commotion in the Measure Heaven River's Fish Dragon Village is to find a special bone," Lu Zhou said.

"Is that so?" Jiang Aijian scratched his head.

"Jiang Aijian… do you think I'm gullible?" Lu Zhou's cloudy eyes looked at Jiang Aijian pointedly.

Jiang Aijian was discomfited by this and did not know how to react. Finally, he said, "Old senior, since you already know about this, why do you have to ask?" This was as good as an admission.

Lu Zhou asked, "The palace has been fishing out bodies from the river for a decade. In your opinion, did the palace gain anything?"

"No."

"What's this special bone?" Lu Zhou asked again.

"Uh…" Jiang Aijian looked around himself. He seemed to be mindful of the many pairs of ears here.

Lu Zhou did not mind this at all. He said, "You should understand that at this point, it's meaningless to conceal these things from me."

Jiang Aijian cupped his fists at Lu Zhou. At this moment, his frivolous manner seemed to have disappeared as he said, "I have no need to lie to you, old senior. To be honest, I think that many of them have forgotten that I'm a prince from the palace since I left the palace many years ago. There aren't many of my friends left in the palace as well. In a few years, perhaps, there won't be a Third Prince in this world." He continued to say, "While investigating the incident at Measure Heaven River, two men were killed. Naturally, they can't blame anyone for their lack of skills."

The great hall was quiet now.

Jiang Aijian continued, "My brother's a cruel man. He's unfit to be the ruler of this nation."

"I believe you," Lu Zhou said.

"Thank you, old senior…"

"Jiang Aijian, in your opinion, is it possible that the bone is the bone of the Bai people?" Lu Zhou asked calmly.

"Bai… people…" Jiang Aijian shook his head. "There was a rumor in the palace that the bones of the Bais can help one to overcome the limits of one's life. If that were the case, what's the point of fishing up the bones in the river over the past ten years?"

Nobody had succeeded in discovering the alleged treasure after salvaging the bones of the Bai people from the riverbed for a decade. Hence, the objective of this operation might have shifted to something else besides the bones of the Bai sometime during the ten years.

"Old senior, I've said what I have to say. I'll be honest and admit I do have a vested interest in this. It's fine if you don't grant me the nice sword," Jiang Aijian said.

Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "I told you I despise petty men who don't keep their words. Since I've promised you a sword, I'll definitely fulfill my promise."

After he finished speaking, Lu Zhou raised his hand and waved it around slowly. A black item appeared and floated toward Jiang Aijian.

At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on the black item. They could not help but wonder what treasure the Pavilion Master of Evil Sky Pavilion had given Jiang Aijian.

Chapter 124: A Nice Sword

EndlessFantasy Translation

The black item fell into Jiang Aijian's hands. It looked nothing like a sword. It was more like a small parcel.

However, Jiang Aijian's eyes widened in surprise as he exclaimed excitedly, "An imperial token?"

"That's right. The nice sword I'm giving you is this imperial token," Lu Zhou said calmly.

'The imperial token is a nice sword?' The others were baffled by this.

Jiang Aijian scratched his head and said, "If you give this to someone in the palace, it'll be extremely useful to you. Old senior, isn't it a waste for you to give it to me? I'm a craven man, I don't have the courage to order people around."

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "This item is, indeed, an imperial token. However, it's also the key to the imperial warehouse. Otherwise, why do you think the Imperial Family searches for it far and wide?"

Jiang Aijian was surprised by Lu Zhou's words. He was not the only one. None of the others knew there would be another use for the imperial token.

"In that case, are you trying to harm me, old senior? I'll get into trouble just by having this valuable item in my possession. If the people in the palace find out that I'm in possession of this, won't they come hunting for me?" Jiang Aijian said.

"You're the most suitable person to keep this item. You're a prince, and you're a person who loves swords. You're the only one who can get close to the warehouse as well. Don't be in a hurry to turn this down. What I'm trying to tell you is that a nice sword is kept inside the warehouse. The sword's name is Dragonsong," Lu Zhou said.

"A-a sword? D-dragonsong?" Jiang Aijian's voice trembled slightly. It seemed as though he had a difficult time believing this.

Hua Wudao said, shocked, "Dragonsong is a heaven-grade weapon that's renowned throughout the world hundreds of years ago. Its sharpness is unrivaled! Many in the cultivation world have been looking for it before it disappeared. I didn't expect it to be in the palace."

Little Yuan'er asked curiously, "Elder Hua, is this sword that great?"

Hua Wudao replied, "Of course! It's considered a godly weapon even among heaven-grade weapons. A heaven-grade weapon would usually need to acknowledge an owner to unleash its full potential. Dragonsong is different. The owner of the weapon has never been found. None of its former users were acknowledged as its owner."

Everyone appeared shocked. In other words, Dragonsong had never once unleashed its full power.

"You're saying that it's possible that this weapon is even higher than heaven-grade weapons?" Little Yuan'er asked skeptically.

"There has never been a weapon that's higher than heaven-grade… I can only say it's superior to ordinary heaven-grade weapons," Hua Wudao said.

Little Yuan'er could not contain herself when she heard this. She quickly turned to Lu Zhou and said, "Master, you can't give him this weapon. It's too good for him!"

Jiang Aijian hastily stuffed the imperial token into his pocket. He said shamelessly, "No, no, no. I like this very much, old senior! Don't worry, I'll work even harder than before. I-I'm very satisfied with this item. This trip is truly worthwhile." He waved his hand and made his way to the entrance as he continued to say, "Everyone, I, uh, have something to attend to so I'll take my leave first! Goodbye! Eh, little girl, please stop glaring at me."

"Jiang Aijian…" Lu Zhou said calmly.

"There's no need to see me off, old senior. I know the way back." Jiang Aijian kept his hand on the imperial token as he walked backward. He was worried Little Yuan'er would come running after him.

"Pass on a message for me."

Jiang Aijian stopped in his tracks and asked, "What message, old senior?"

"Wei Zhuoyan is the main culprit of the battle at Measure Heaven River… I hope that he surrenders and admits his guilt," Lu Zhou said coldly. His words plunged the great hall into silence. If a needle were to fall on the ground now, everyone would have been able to hear it loud and clear.

"O-old senior, you're joking, right? Wei Zhuoyan is in command of a huge army, and he's an important officer of the nation. Demanding that he admits his guilt might cause an upheaval," Jiang Aijian said, "Moreover, he has a profound cultivation base. Rumor has it that his strength is comparable to Fan Xiuwen, the leader of the Black Knights. He also has many henchmen in the palace… I think it's easier to ascend to the heavens than to make him admit his crimes."

Lu Zhou rested his hands on his back as he said, "Once a man has risen to a certain position, he won't admit his guilt even if he has done wrong. I understand this sentiment. However, just because I understand it, it doesn't mean I like it."

Jiang Aijian asked, "Aren't you afraid of offending the Second Prince? Won't it be disadvantageous for the Golden Court Mountain to have so many enemies? I know the Evil Sky Pavilion possesses shocking strength, but the lands under the heavens belong to the empire… It's impossible for the Imperial family to not have its own tactics to have maintained stability in the cultivation world throughout the years."

Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "You're wrong."

"Huh?"

"Wei Zhuoyan will die sooner or later. It's just a matter of choosing how he dies," Lu Zhou said coldly.

"Uh…" Jiang Aijian stroked his chin and considered it for a moment. "I'll send a messenger."

Lu Zhou nodded and said, "Escort our guest."

"Understood."

Jiang Aijian said, "Before I leave, I'd like to know, how did you see through my act, old senior? I don't think my knack of obtaining information is enough to give me away."

Lu Zhou waved his hand indifferently. He did not deign to reply to Jiang Aijian. He merely motioned for the Derived Moon Palace's female cultivator to send the guest away.

Jiang Aijian did not persist when he saw Lu Zhou ignoring his question. He only shook his head helplessly before he turned to leave. "I think you've been in the palace before this, old senior. Otherwise, you won't have the imperial token in your possession." He laughed. "Forget it. It's not important. Farewell…"

Mingshi Yin bowed and said, "Master, although this man is unruly and doesn't resemble a prince, I think he's a talented person. Should we retain him?"

"There's no need for that. There are other uses for this man," Lu Zhou said calmly.

Hua Wudao bowed and said, "Pavilion Master, I have something to say, but I wonder if I should say it at all."

"Hua Wudao." Lu Zhou's tone was stern. "Be mindful of your place… There's a limit to my patience."

Hua Wudao immediately lowered his voice. He nodded respectfully and said nothing else.

Mingshi Yin said with a smile, "Elder Hua, you're no longer a member of the Yun Sect. You're an elder of the Evil Sky Pavilion now. There are many who would love to be in your shoes. If you regret this decision, you're welcome to leave at any time. However, you should think carefully before choosing your friends and enemies."

Duanmu Sheng raised his Overlord Spear and brought it down on the floor heavily.

Clang!

The newly laid greenstone floor was ruined by a new pit.

"Death to the deserters!"

"…"

Lu Zhou looked at Hua Wudao indifferently. If it were not for Hua Wudao's 5% loyalty, he would have struck him for speaking in Ding Fanqiu's favor earlier.

Hua Wudao seemed to have realized that there was a problem with his attitude as well. He said, "I've been rude."

When Lu Zhou saw Hua Wudao's stiff expression, he said, "Although your Six Compatible Seal is powerful, it's not perfect."

Hua Wudao, who was a cultivation maniac, was immediately invigorated when he heard this. He cupped his fists and said, "Please guide me, Pavilion Master."

"How many leaves does your avatar have?"

"I've made no progress over the past 20 years. It's still at the Six-leaf stage."

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng were shocked. It was no wonder they were incapable of breaching Hua Wudao's defenses even after taking turns to attack him. Against an expert of such a rank, even if he did not use his Six Compatible Seal and merely used his protective energy, they would not have been able to break his defenses.

"There are tomes about the Six Compatible Seal and Six-leaf avatars here. You may peruse them at your leisure, Elder Hua." Lu Zhou stroked his beard.

Hua Wudao beamed. He said respectfully, "Thank you, Pavilion Master." The general public was of the opinion that the Evil Sky Pavilion hoarded many treasures, tomes, and weapons. Every cultivator dreamed about gaining access to these things. When the barrier was broken back then, the Righteous Sect and Clarity Sect had been searching the mountain for these treasures. How could he not feel excited being given access to these things?

The great hall was quiet again.

A Derived Moon Palace's female cultivator walked over slowly, curtsied, and said, "Pavilion Master, the palace master…"

"There are no palace masters here!" Duanmu Sheng rebuked the female cultivator immediately.

These female cultivators had regarded Ye Tianxin as their leader ever since they joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, and Duanmu Sheng had wanted to teach them a lesson since a long time ago.

The female cultivator was shocked. She nodded and said, "Y-ye Tianxin requests an audience."

"What's the matter?" Lu Zhou asked coldly.

"Ye Tianxin is unconscious. I'm afraid… I'm afraid that she won't make it!"

Chapter 125: The Death of Ye Tianxin

EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Zhou waved his arm. He did not even look at the female cultivator when he walked out of the great hall with his hands on his back.

Little Yuan'er, Mingshi Yin, and Duanmu Sheng followed closely behind him.

A short while later, Lu Zhou arrived at the south pavilion.

Some female cultivators were already waiting for him at the south pavilion's entrance. When they saw Lu Zhou, they fell to their knees. "Greetings, Pavilion Master!"

Lu Zhou ignored them, directly making his way to where Ye Tianxian was being held. He waved his arms and a wave of energy pushed the door open.

At this moment, Ye Tianxin lay on the bed. Her face was ghastly pale. Her skin and hair were completely white.

The two female cultivators in the room kneeled before they retreated.

Ye Tianxin looked up with great difficulty. When she saw her master, she hastily tried to get up but ended up falling off the bed instead. "M-master."

Lu Zhou's expression was indifferent as he said, "Have you heard?"

"I know that I've committed a grave and unforgivable sin," Ye Tianxian said before breaking into a fit of violent coughing and spat out a mouthful of blood.

A female cultivator immediately went forward to support her.

"This disciple has one request…" When Ye Tianxin saw Lu Zhou remaining silent, she mustered up her courage and continued to speak, "I would like to kill Wei Zhuoyan with my own hands to avenge the Fish Dragon Village. After that, I shall atone for my sins with my life."

When Lu Zhou heard this, he stroked his beard. He said without any inflection in his tone, "Your cultivation base has been disabled. How're you going to kill Wei Zhuoyan?"

"Uh…" Ye Tianxin's expression soured. In her current condition, she might not even be able to defeat a mortal, let alone Wei Zhuoyan who had a profound cultivation base. If the Derived Moon Palace's female cultivators did not take such good care of her, her condition would be even worse.

"Ye Tianxin," Lu Zhou said apathetically, "You betrayed your master, denounced your patriarch, defected from the Evil Sky Pavilion, committed crimes, and ruined my reputation. What do you have to say for yourself?"

Mingshi Yin scratched his head at these words. 'Master, what reputation are you talking about?'

After all, Ye Tianxin was not the only one ruining the Evil Sky Pavilion's reputation in the outside world. All these years, the Nether Sect, Darknet, and even Old Eighth's Tiger Ridge Gang had blamed all their actions on the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Ye Tianxin said respectfully, "I have nothing to say."

"In that case, I'll grant you death."

"Huh?"

Lu Zhou suddenly raised his hand and hit Ye Tianxin.

This sudden development caught everyone off guard.

A surge of gentle energy hit Ye Tianxin. If she still had her cultivation base, this energy wave would not have hurt her. However, she had no cultivation base at the moment. This hit could be fatal to her.

Bang!

"Master!"

"Master, don't…"

Little Yuan'er, Mingshi Yin, and Duanmu Sheng did not expect their master to suddenly lash out as well. They were greatly shocked. All of them cried out to plead for mercy, but it was too late.

Ye Tianxin was sent flying from the energy's impact. She dropped to the floor with a thud.

"Pick her up," Lu Zhou said nonchalantly.

"Y-yes…" The two female cultivators were scared witless. They hastily helped Ye Tianxin onto the bed.

Lu Zhou waved his arm and walked up to the bed and looked at Ye Tianxin. 'Indeed, there aren't any Primal Qi in her dantian or sea of Qi.' He raised his hand and placed his palm on Ye Tianxin's forehead.

Upon seeing this, Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng fell to their knees immediately. "Master!"

Lu Zhou lowered his hand. However, Ye Tianxin had to be punished. He placed his palm softly on her forehead. A faint wisp of Primal Qi surrounded her before a peculiar thing happened…

Ye Tianxin's skin tone changed again. It was now like a jasper with a faint sheen. At the same time, her hair, arms, and the rest of her body turned transparent before she began to levitate in the air.

"This is…" Duanmu Sheng was greatly shocked.

"That's right, a Bai…" Mingshi Yin said with a nod.

"Why's master doing this?"

Mingshi Yin looked at the situation in the room again before he pulled Duanmu Sheng and Little Yuan'er out. When they were outside, he sighed and said, "Junior Sister Tianxin has a rough life… When she fearlessly joined the Evil Sky Pavilion many years ago, her talents were nothing special. However, her cultivation base improved in leaps and bounds. The annihilation of the Fish Dragon Village is probably her motivation. Junior Sister Tianxin was cold and heartless, but she never complained about master's criticisms and temper. Hence, master granted her the Amorous Hoop. The Amorous Hoop isn't really amorous. Instead, it symbolizes hatred."

"I still don't understand," Little Yuan'er mumbled.

"The reason Junior Sister Tianxin's cultivation base improved so quickly is due to her being a Bai. Since ancient times, the Bais were exceptionally gifted in cultivation. I'm afraid that master's palm strike bodes ill for her."

"Bodes ill for her?"

"That might not be the case. If master wants to kill her, he would've done so when we captured her. Why would he wait until now?"

Duanmu Sheng and Little Yuan'er were confused.

Mingshi Yin continued to say, "If Junior Sister Tianxin dies, she only has herself to blame. That's the consequence of betraying master, denouncing the patriarch, and defecting from the Evil Sky Pavilion. If she lives, it means that her destined time isn't up."

"You're saying the Bais might have some special ability that preserves their lives?" Duanmu Sheng asked, puzzled.

"Maybe… I don't know much about the Bais," Mingshi Yin said.

Little Yuan'er said with a pout, "Senior brother, based on your words, it seems like Senior Sister Tianxin has had it rough."

At this moment, Lu Zhou finally walked out of the room. His expression was indifferent as usual.

"Master." The three disciples bowed in unison when they saw Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou glanced at three of them and said, "Life and death are decided by the heavens." As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Mingshi Yin could not help but worry. He entered the room immediately. He saw Ye Tianxin lying on the bed and rushed over to examine her. There was no aura nor pulse. His eyes widened in astonishment as he staggered backward.

The two Derived Moon Palace's female cultivators were crying uncontrollably on their knees beside the bed.

Mingshi Yin could not believe this. He circulated his Primal Qi and infused it into Ye Tianxin's meridians. "Hm? What's this?" No matter how he tried to infuse his Primal Qi, Ye Tianxin was like a rock, unmoving. His Primal Qi was completely blocked from entering her body.

"Her extraordinary eight meridians are completely sealed."

"A Bai?"

Mingshi Yin hastily lowered his hands and turned to look at the two female cultivators. He asked in a deep voice, "Before master left, did he say anything?"

"Pavilion Master, Pavilion Master said… that life and death are decided by the heavens. Whether Palace Master survives or not, it depends on her fate!"

Mingshi Yin muttered to himself, "As expected…"

…

Meanwhile.

The General's Mansion in Changning.

"General, there's a letter from the palace. The messenger emphasized that you should open it yourself."

Wei Zhuoyan received the letter. He opened it and went through it carefully. After reading its contents, he slammed the letter on the table.

Bang!

The letter and the table were instantly destroyed.

"The audacity…" Wei Zhuoyan's eyes were burning with rage.

Wei Zhuoyan's subordinate ventured carefully, "General… what is it that angers you so?"

"A trivial matter," Wei Zhuoyan waved his hand and said, "Draft a reply for me. Say that I'm informed about this."

"Understood." The subordinate left.

Wei Zhuoyan scoffed and said, "A mere witchcraft cultivator dares to order me around. Preposterous!" Then, he barked, "Men!"

"Yes, general."

"I'm feeling unwell. I won't be attending any feast," Wei Zhuoyan said.

"Then… what about His Highness's side?"

"I'm not going."

"Understood!"

Chapter 126: To Redeem Oneself

EndlessFantasy Translation

When Lu Zhou returned to the Evil Sky Pavilion, he went to the hidden chamber and began to study the Heavenly Writing. After half a day of poring over the text, his mental state was rejuvenated.

After Lu Zhou was done, he shifted his attention to the mysterious box again. He raised his right hand and Unnamed appeared in his hand.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Lu Zhou wielded Unnamed and swung it at the sword several times. It merely left a few marks on the mysterious box. Even then, the marks only remained for a few moments before it disappeared, the mysterious box was restored to its original appearance. The box was more hardy than he had expected.

"Perhaps, I need some sort of key?" Lu Zhou muttered to himself when he saw a groove on top of the box. Its pattern was quite peculiar. He manipulated Unnamed until it matched the pattern of the groove on the box before inserting it into the groove.

The pattern suddenly changed.

Clack!

Unnamed was repelled.

Lu Zhou raised his hand and recalled Unnamed. The sword vanished into thin air. Then, he sent several waves of energy at the box.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

'Stupid box!'

…

Meanwhile, outside the hidden chamber.

Mingshi Yin and the others who had just arrived near the hidden chamber heard the commotion inside.

"Master is angry again," Little Yuan'er mumbled.

"Many things have happened recently. It's only natural for master to be angry."

"Senior Brother, will Senior Sister Tianxin be alright?" Little Yuan'er asked softly.

"I can't be sure. Master said that it depends on her luck."

The three of them shook their heads.

Bzzt!

The hidden chamber's rock door slid open slowly.

The three of them immediately held their breaths. They did not dare to continue their discussion. They saw their master swing his arm before a wave of energy carried a mysterious box into the great hall.

Lu Zhou slowly walked up to them with his hands on his back.

"Master!" Three of them called out in unison.

"Mingshi Yin."

"Yes, master."

"You always have the most ideas. This box is extremely mysterious. I'll leave it to you for now. Find a way to open it," Lu Zhou said slowly.

"Yes, master." Mingshi Yin grinned when he saw the box. 'I like simple tasks like this the most.'

Lu Zhou walked up the stairs and slowly sat down. As soon as he sat down, his three disciples immediately straightened up, they did not dare to behave carelessly. However, he did not look at them and continued entertaining his own thoughts.

'Currently, I have 8,762 merit points. It seems like a lot, but it's still not enough for me to buy the Six Recombinant Trigram Lines. Initially, I planned to purchase item cards for when I need them. However, if I recklessly buy them, the prices would go up. I have no choice but to spend my energy to improve my cultivation base, Although their cultivation bases are good, it's still impossible to take them on missions like killing Wei Zhuoyan.'

When Lu Zhou thought about his disciples, he finally said, "How's the improvement of your cultivation bases coming along?"

Duanmu Sheng hastily bowed and said, "I've had some breakthrough with my Divine One Technique. I think I can attain a Two-leaf avatar within a month."

Mingshi Yin said, "My cultivation base is at the One-leaf avatar stage."

"You're not concealing your strength?" Lu Zhou stared at Mingshi Yin. After all, he discovered this fellow had intentionally concealed his strength when he was fighting Zhang Qiuchi.

Mingshi Yin hastily said, "Master, I'm telling the truth. I daren't hide things from you."

Lu Zhou nodded. He looked at Little Yuan'er, who was standing at the side. "Yuan'er, what about you?"

Little Yuan'er blushed. She stammered, "Peak Divine Court realm…" When she finished speaking, she fell to her knees and said, "I'll break through to the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm as soon as I can."

Of Lu Zhou's nine disciples, apart from Old Eighth and Old Fifth, Little Yuan'er was the only one who was still in the Divine Court realm. Little Yuan'er felt ashamed when she thought about this.

Lu Zhou did not mind much. However, he did feel their overall strength was slightly weak. If they wanted to stand firm in the cultivation world, they would at least need cultivation bases with Five-leaf or Six-leaf. The strongest of his disciples was Duanmu Sheng, who was close to attaining a Two-lead avatar. Indeed, they were quite weak. Ding Fanqiu had a Five-leaf cultivation base, Fan Xiuwen had an Eight-leaf cultivation base, and Hua Wudao had a Six-leaf cultivation base. When he made the comparison, he truly felt his disciples were unpresentable. Thus, he said to them, "You'll have to work harder on your cultivation."

"Yes, master," Three of them replied in unison. They were shocked as well. Their master would not care about them like this in the past. It was considered good as long as he did not hold anything back from them.

At this moment, a female cultivator's voice rang from outside the great hall. "Zhao Yue requests an audience."

Lu Zhou's three disciples instinctively turned to look.

Lu Zhou said calmly, "Let her in."

Zhao Yue walked into the great hall with two female cultivators escorting her.

"This sinful disciple pays respect to master." Zhao Yue respectfully kneeled on the ground.

"Raise your head," Lu Zhou said indifferently.

Zhao Yue lifted her head slowly. She flinched when her eyes met Lu Zhou's eyes.

The golden lotus on Zhao Yue's forehead had disappeared.

"I'm grateful for your mercy, master… The witchcraft Restriction has been lifted," Zhao Yue said with slight trepidation.

"How's your cultivation base?"

"I've recovered about one-fifth of it. I'll need one month to completely recover," Zhao Yue answered honestly. When she finished speaking, she kowtowed as she said, "I know that I've made a mistake. I beg for a chance to redeem myself, master!"

Upon hearing this, Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng kneeled down as well.

Although Little Yuan'er was a beat slower, she followed suit as well. However, she seemed puzzled by this.

Lu Zhou glanced at the other three before he said, "Zhao Yue."

"Yes, master."

"I'll give you an opportunity to redeem yourself," Lu Zhou said.

"Thank you, master! I won't let you down!" Zhao Yue was overjoyed.

Lu Zhou noticed that Zhao Yue's loyalty had increased by 15%. Currently, the Evil Sky Pavilion was weak. He had to focus on increasing his disciples' loyalty and improving their cultivation bases. At the same time, he had to earn merit points. The truth behind the Fish Dragon Village had been brought to light, and he could not rush things on Wei Zhuoyan's side as well. When he thought about this, he said, "In these few days, put all of your cultivation methods down in writing and present them to me."

"Huh? Write down our cultivation methods?"

The disciples were dumbfounded.

"Do it. No questions," Lu Zhou said in a tone that brooked no arguments.

"Yes, master."

Lu Zhou had ordered his disciples to do this because he was not certain if his disciples were cultivating the right and complete methods. His lost memories were most probably related to his disciples. If the cultivation methods they were taught were defective, it would become a huge obstacle to their improvements. After a while, he waved his arm and left.

The four of them exchanged glances.

"Old Fourth, you're the one with brains… What's master playing at?" Duanmu Sheng asked as he scratched his head.

"How would I know…" Mingshi Yin carried the box and began studying it. Compared to writing down his cultivation method, studying the box was more interesting to him.

Zhao Yue said emotionally, "In any case, there's no doubt that master has changed."

"Fifth Junior Sister, you're much more fortunate than Junior Sister Tianxin. Her fate is now in limbo. We're not sure if she can make it," Mingshi Yin said.

Zhao Yue was shocked by Mingshi Yin's words, "What happened to Junior Sister Tianxin?"

Mingshi Yin sighed and said, "She's now in a deep slumber… It's best not to ask further. I don't want to guess master's intentions."

"Are you saying that master is so simple-minded that you don't want to guess his intentions?" Duanmu Sheng asked.

Mingshi Yin's eyes widened as he said, "Shh! Third Senior Brother, I said no such thing! Master is very intelligent!"

"…" Little Yuan'er's eyes brightened as she said loudly, "Oh, I know, you're saying master is stupid!"

"…" Mingshi Yin carried the box and vanished into thin air. A boneheaded teammate could do you more harm than the most formidable opponent. He left for a quiet place behind the mountain.

As soon as Mingshi Yin arrived, he placed the box on a rock. He stroked his chin as he studied the box intently. The box was unlike anything he had ever seen. There were no gaps, no notches, no cover. It was a perfect cube!

"Regardless of what kind of box you are, a heaven-grade weapon can definitely break you!" Mingshi Yin raised his right hand, and his Separation Hook and Scabbard appeared in his hand. He swung it.

Bam!

Sparks flew.

Both his weapon and the box were unscathed.

"Incredible." Mingshi Yin's eyes widened. "I'm the dumb one here. Master would never give me something simple to deal with."

Mingshi Yin saw the groove on the box. The sun shone on it, and he saw a unique pattern. "Hm? Why does this resemble my Separation Hook and Scabbard?"

Chapter 127: The Way to Open the Box

EndlessFantasy Translation

The pattern was made clear by the sunlight.

Mingshi Yin was intrigued. He placed his Separation Hook and Scabbard into the groove.

Clack!

The top part of the box turned. There were now slits on all sides. Then, with another sound, the slits disappeared, returning to its original form.

"Eh? My Separation Hook and Scabbard!" Mingshi Yin was greatly shocked. He hastily grabbed his weapon. "It's stuck? No!" The Separation Hook and Scabbard was like the flesh of his heart. He could not allow anything to happen to it. He held onto the Separation Hook and Scabbard with all his might.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Mingshi Yin swung his arms wildly. The rocks and boulders in his surroundings were almost all destroyed, but the Separation Hook and Scabbard would not dislodge from the box. It was caught in the groove!

"No way…" Mingshi Yin wanted to cry. "Did master regret giving me the weapon and devised such a method to get it back?" He continued thinking to himself, 'That can't be right. Master doesn't need to use such an elaborate method if he wants me to return the weapon.'

At this moment, Duanmu Sheng appeared with his Overlord Spear. "Junior Brother… What're you doing? I was looking for you everywhere!"

"Senior Brother, I'm afraid I won't be able to spar with you… My Separation Hook and Scabbard are stuck!" Mingshi Yin pointed at the groove on the box.

Duanmu Sheng said with disapproval in his voice, "It's only a rotten box. Stand back!"

"What're you going to do?"

"Further."

"…"

Bam!

Duanmu Sheng stabbed the mysterious box. The box was sent flying back from the impact. It landed on the rock wall, leaving a dent, before it fell to the ground.

Duanmu Sheng looked at his Overlord Spear. It was perfectly fine. He looked at the box. It was perfectly fine as well. He praised, "It's tough!"

"Senior Brother, look…" Mingshi Yin pointed at the Separation Hook and Scabbard's groove. There was another groove.

"What's this?" Duanmu Sheng asked.

"Why don't you… poke it with your Overlord Spear?" Mingshi Yin had a feeling this box had a fondness toward heaven-grade weapons.

Duanmu Sheng obediently followed Mingshi Yin's suggestion. He raised his Overlord Spear before he jabbed it into the groove next to Mingshi Yin's Separation Hook and Scabbard.

Clack!

The Overlord Spear was stuck in the round groove.

It was as if some mechanism had been triggered. An opening appeared on the surface of the box.

Bam!

"My weapon!" Duanmu Sheng cried out, stunned.

The opening catapulted the two weapons into the air. Mingshi Yin utilized his Primal Qi and made a grabbing gesture with his right hand. The Separation Hook and Scabbard returned to his grasp.

The Overlord Spear flew into the air and dropped down. Duanmu Sheng caught it easily by the ornamental dragon around the shaft.

"This box… is peculiar." Duanmu Sheng regarded the box with a shocked expression on his face.

One of the box's six sides had a small opening now.

Realization dawned on Mingshi Yin before he said excitedly, "I get it! As long as we place all of our weapons in the respective grooves, we'll be able to open master's box!"

Under the sun's rays, the patterns of the grooves on the box were exceptionally clear.

Mingshi Yin began pointing at the numerous grooves that had appeared on the box. "This is the Jasper Saber. This is the Longevity Sword. This is the Amorous Hoop, and this is the Peacock Plume."

Duanmu Sheng was amazed by this. He said, "I wonder who designed this exquisite box."

"How would I know?" Mingshi Yin shrugged and said, "Fortunately, we discovered the secret to opening the box!"

"What good would it do us? The Peacock Plume is in Seventh Junior Brother's hands. The Jasper Saber and Longevity Sword are in Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother's hands. I don't think anyone under the heavens is able to make them surrender their weapons!" Duanmu Sheng said. He wanted to add, 'Even master won't be able to do it', but he was worried he would bring trouble upon himself. So he swallowed his words and replaced them with something else.

Mingshi Yin nodded. "I don't dare to look for Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother… I'll report this to master!"

"Master is resting now. In the meantime, why don't we spar?"

"…" Mingshi Yin seemed to be on the verge of tears. "Third Senior Brother, I recommend Elder Hua in my stead! You can't even break his tortoise technique even though he was holding back. How can you live with that? Besides, he's a Six-leaf elite. He's much more suitable as your training partner."

Duanmu Sheng beamed and said, "You have a point. I'll look for Elder Hua right away!"

After Duanmu Sheng left, Mingshi Yin continued to study the box for a while longer behind the mountain. He only returned in the afternoon and carried the box to the great hall of Evil Sky Pavilion.

When Mingshi Yin arrived in the great hall, he noticed his master, Little Yuan'er, Zhao Yue, Zhou Jifeng, and the others were all gathered there. They seemed to be in some sort of discussion.

Lu Zhou was seated above the rest. When he saw Mingshi Yin coming in, he said, "Just in time."

Mingshi Yin placed the box on the floor and saluted Lu Zhou as he said, "Master, I've unlocked the secret to opening this box."

"Oh?" Lu Zhou felt slightly excited, but his expression remained unchanged as usual. Although this disciple of his was slightly difficult to control, he was very competent in completing tasks.

"To open this box, six weapons will have to be fitted into the respective grooves… Take a look, master…" Mingshi Yin waved his hand, and the box hovered in the air. "This is the Jasper Saber and Longevity Sword; this is the Peacock Plume and the Amorous Hoop…"

Mingshi Yin held the box at an angle so that the sunlight from outside the great hall would illuminate the grooves.

It was as Mingshi Yin had said. The patterns on the box's surface were the patterns of his six disciples' weapons.

"Master, Third Senior Brother and I inserted our weapons into the grooves earlier, and this opening appeared. I think we need two more openings before we'll be able to unlock the box," Mingshi Yin said with a hint of pride in his tone.

Lu Zhou nodded. "Good job."

Mingshi Yin felt as though he was soaring from happiness when his master praised him. He bowed and said, "Thank you for your kind words, master."

Lu Zhou had thought of that as well. He had even changed Unnamed's shape to fit the groove, but his attempt was unsuccessful. Clearly, the system would not let Lu Zhou exploit such a loophole. He needed the Jasper Saber, Longevity Sword, and the other weapons to open this box. However, now that the villainous disciples had left the Evil Sky Pavilion, it was slightly impractical to count on them.

Zhao Yue bowed and said, "Master, I think Fourth Senior Brother is the best person to unlock this mysterious box."

Mingshi Yin was startled by this suggestion.

"How so?" Lu Zhou asked.

"The Peacock Plume is in Seventh Junior Brother's hands. Seventh Junior Brother has a good relationship with Eighth Junior Brother. With Fourth Senior Brother's abilities, it's not difficult for him to locate Eighth Junior Brother. Once Seventh Junior Brother is found, it won't be difficult for him to contact Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother. I believe they'll be curious about the contents of the box. They would surely think of a way to open it."

Mingshi Yin was still stunned.

Lu Zhou stroked his beard calmly and said, "Good idea."

Mingshi Yin hastily said, "Master, we should take time to consider this before making any decisions… Elder Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother's cultivation bases are profound. What if they decide to kill me and take the box away?"

When the others heard this, they nodded. They felt that Mingshi Yin had a point.

Lu Zhou, however, shook his head while stroking his beard and said, "Although Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong are rascals, they're lenient toward their juniors. There has never been an internal feud among the disciples ever since the Evil Sky Pavilion started taking in disciples. I believe they won't harm you."

Mingshi Yin wanted to cry. "But, I… I don't believe that…"

Chapter 128: Teaching the Eighth Disciple

EndlessFantasy Translation

"That's the end of the discussion. Don't let me down." Lu Zhou stared at Mingshi Yin.

Mingshi Yin got goosebumps when he heard Lu Zhou's words. He carried the box and spoke in an aggrieved tone, "Yes, master."

"Everyone's dismissed."

"Understood."

Lu Zhou glanced at the system dashboard. The progress of unlocking the box had appeared on the mission list. Indeed. He did not think there was anyone more suitable for this task than Mingshi Yin. He was certain Mingshi Yin was the only one who could deftly maneuver his ways between these different villains. Only someone as shameless as Mingshi Yin could complete this task. Moreover, based on his memories, Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong had never mistreated their juniors. He frowned as he thought to himself, 'In that case, why did they abandon the Evil Sky Pavilion? This is giving me a headache.'

After Mingshi Yin left the great hall with the box in his hands, a female cultivator walked in and bowed before she said, "Pavilion Master, Ye Tianxin showed no changes today."

"Alright," Lu Zhou replied indifferently.

Ye Tianxin had fallen into a deep slumber, and her fate was still in limbo.

"Master, Senior Sister Tianxin won't die, will she?" Little Yuan'er asked softly.

"I don't know," Lu Zhou replied honestly.

"If she dies, will you be happy, master?" Little Yuan'er asked.

As soon as Little Yuan'er finished speaking, Lu Zhou knocked her head and chided her, "Have you finished the assignment I've given you?"

Little Yuan'er rubbed her head as she replied with a pout, "Not yet."

"Then, what are you standing around for?"

"Eh? A letter!" Little Yuan'er leaped away at lightning speed. A short while later, she returned with a letter in her hands.

Lu Zhou did not reprimand her for this. Instead, he said, "Read it."

"It's from Jiang Aijian," Little Yuan'er said before she continued to read out loud, "Old senior, I've conveyed your message to Wei Zhuoyan. As expected, he did not think too much about it. Also, you're right. Someone with a high position in the palace isn't on friendly terms with Wei Zhuoyan."

Lu Zhou nodded. It was just as he had predicted.

Wei Zhuoyan had worked hard to climb to his current position. He was now an important officer of Great Yan and commanded a formidable force. If someone appeared out of nowhere and told him to give all this up, he would not possibly agree to it.

"Send a reply to Jiang Aijian… Tell him that I'm informed about this." Lu Zhou stroked his beard calmly.

Little Yuan'er spoke with a hint of anger in her voice, "Master, this Wei Zhuoyan is getting on my nerves. Should I descend the mountain and kill him?"

"Can a Divine Court realm cultivator kill a Seven-leaf or possibly an Eight-leaf elite?" Lu Zhou asked.

"Uh…" Little Yuan'er lowered her head as she twiddled her fingers.

"Wei Zhuoyan didn't rely on his cultivation base alone when he became the commander-in-chief of the three armies. Pull one hair, and the whole body moves. He's different from Fan Xiuwen. Fan Xiuwen was once on top of the blacklist. He's just a pawn in the secret service. The Great Yan's Imperial family won't concern themselves with him even if he dies. However, Wei Zhuoyan is different. There are many who wish for his death, and there are also many who don't…"

"What do we do now?" Little Yuan'er asked.

"There's no need to worry… I want more than Wei Zhuoyan's life…" Lu Zhou said calmly.

…

Half a day later.

Mingshi Yin left the Evil Sky Pavilion with the box and hurried over to Old Eighth's, Zhu Honggong, base.

When Mingshi Yin arrived, Old Eighth, Zhu Honggong, was napping on a wooden armchair.

One of Zhu Honggong's subordinated hastily ran up to him and shouted, "Gang leader! We have a problem! Someone has infiltrated the ridge!"

Zhu Honggong jumped from the shock. He hastily got up and chided, "Why are you panicking?! Who dares invade the Tiger Ridge on my watch?"

As soon as Zhu Honggong finished speaking, Mingshi Yin's voice rang from outside. "Yo! I see that you've become more impressive since we last met."

Mingshi Yin's figure appeared before Zhu Honggong. He covered 300 feet in a stride and reached Zhu Honggong in just a blink of an eye.

Thud!

Zhu Honggong fell to his knees obediently. His kingly behavior had completely vanished. He asked, "Senior brother, y-you… What brings you here?"

"What? Am I not welcomed here?"

Zhu Honggong said ingratiatingly, "Is it possible that you've decided to join my Tiger Ridge Gang? That's great! From this day on, you'll be the Tiger Ridge's Gang Leader. I'll let you have the title of the Evil King as well. I don't mind playing second fiddle to you!"

"Cut that out." Mingshi Yin placed the box on a nearby table. He sat down without any invitation and said, "I'll never leave the Evil Sky Pavilion."

"Huh?"

"I'm here on a mission."

"What kind of mission? Don't tell me that you're here to kill us?" Zhu Honggong trembled inwardly. He was filled with worry and his forehead broke out in cold sweat when he recalled his encounter with his master near the Green Jade Altar.

"I don't understand how a coward like you are bold enough to leave the Evil Sky Pavilion. Your cultivation base isn't as profound as Elder Senior Brother's cultivation base, you don't have Second Senior Brother's bravery, and you don't have Seventh Junior Brother's brains. Perhaps, you're emboldened by your physique alone?" Mingshi Yin mocked.

"Senior Brother, please don't insult me like this. I'm actually quite intelligent," Zhu Honggong said shamelessly.

"You?"

"That's right… If I weren't smart, I would've been captured by master that day near the Green Jade Altar," Zhu Honggong, Old Eighth, said with a self-satisfied smile.

"Oh, shut up," Mingshi Yin rolled his eyes and said, "Master just thinks taking you back to the mountain isn't a priority at this moment. If he sees Old Seventh, we'll see if he's merciful."

"…" Zhu Honggong was rendered momentarily speechless. After a while, he looked at the box and said with a smile, "Fourth Senior Brother, since you're not here to capture me, what did you come here for? I'll help you in any way I can!"

Mingshi Yin pointed at the box beside him and said, "This mysterious box belongs to master. It can only be opened with Seventh Junior Brother, Elder Senior Brother, and Second Senior Brother's weapons. Seventh Junior Brother is an elusive figure. Hence, I have no choice but to look for you."

"Fourth Senior Brother… It's only a box. Why don't we cut it open with a blade? There's no need for heaven-grade weapons," Zhu Honggong said as he drew the saber of a subordinate who stood next to him.

Mingshi Yin did not stop Zhu Honggong. He sat on the wooden armchair, waiting to watch a good show.

Old Eighth brandished the saber and slashed down mercilessly.

Bang!

Sparks flew in the air as the saber snapped into two and dropped to the ground with a clang.

Zhu Honggong's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He looked at the mysterious box and gulped. "Heavens! Why is this box so hardy?"

"If I know the answer to that, would I be here?" Mingshi Yin grabbed the grapes beside him and ate them. He spat the skin out from time to time.

"Fourth Senior Brother… I truly wonder. The Evil Sky Pavilion is waning, and the cultivation world is waiting for master's life to run out. When that time comes, all the treasures in the Evil Sky Pavilion will be looted. Why don't you seize this opportunity…"

"Shut up!" Mingshi Yin snapped.

Thud!

Zhu Honggong fell to his knees again.

"You master-betraying, patriarch-denouncing scoundrel… It's one thing for you to leave the Evil Sky Pavilion, but you dare curse your master?! What did master ever do to you?" Mingshi Yin chided.

"Uh…" Zhu Honggong scratched his head. "I just got beaten up a lot. There's no real enmity between us…"

"Do you know what happened to your Sixth Senior Sister?"

"Senior Sister Tianxin?"

"Her cultivation base is destroyed, and her fate is in limbo… Listen to me, don't go against master. I can understand why you want to leave the Evil Sky Pavilion, but if you do anything behind his back…" Mingshi Yin said coldly.

"Senior Brother! You're wrongly accusing me! I have done no such thing!" Zhu Honggong straightened three fingers and swore to the heavens.
