Chapter 773: Any Single One of Them Can Easily Smash Your Heads
A beam of golden light shone out from the Golden Taixu Mirror. It was as though sunlight was shining on Sikong Beichen.
This ti, no one was taken aback since they had seen it once. Since they now know the function of the mirror, they quickly turned to look. They saw a Ten-leaf red lotus avatar, but the karmic fire with the seal on Sikong Beichen’s Extraordinary Eight ridians had disappeared.
“Your technique is truly eye-opening, Senior Lu!” Yao Qingquan and Zhao Jianghe bowed at the sa ti.
Sikong Beichen slowly rose to his feet. He stretched his limbs and tried to circulate his Primal Qi. Although he would need ti to heal his burnt ridians, with the karmic fire and the seal gone, this was just a minor problem. Moreover, his ridians were no longer blocked. He cupped his fists at Lu Zhou and said, “Brother Lu, I won’t say much. If there’s anything the Ninth Temple can do for you in the future, all you have to do is ask.”
Lu Zhou put the mirror away. He stroked his beard and said, “I’ve always admired those who know to adapt.”
“Ye Zhen is extrely cunning... The Thousand Willow Monastery’s barrier is weak. You must be careful, Senior Lu,” Sikong Beichen said.
Lu Zhou could have told Sikong Beichen that he had killed Ye Zhen, but sothing held him back.
Sure enough...
An elder hurried into the hall at this mont. He bowed before he said, “Flying Star House’s Ye Zhen has publicly announced that ng Changdong has betrayed the Flying Star House. Anyone who manages to capture ng Changdong, dead or alive, will be rewarded with a heaven-grade weapon!”
The others frowned.
The elder presented a piece of paper. “This is the notice from the Flying Star House.”
Lu Zhou did not look at it. “Ye Zhen’s alive?”
“Senior Lu, Ye Zhen has always been fine. Why do you say that? This morning, he was just showing his karmic fire to his disciples on Lofty Steep Mountain. With this, I’m sure there’ll be a huge influx of cultivators trying to join the Flying Star House again.”
Lu Zhou scowled. ‘Fortunately, I didn’t brag about killing him. Otherwise, it would’ve been awkward. that. This Ye Zhen is truly cunning. I’ll have to look for an opportunity to use the golden mirror on him and reveal him as the demon he is.’
Xia Changqiu said, “Bring ng Changdong here.”
“Understood.”
Soon after, ng Changdong was escorted by two disciples into the great hall.
Sikong Beichen and the two First Seats, naturally, recognized ng Changdong.
“ng Changdong?”
ng Changdong looked at the people gathered in the hall. When he saw Sikong Beichen, he appeared shocked. ‘So, the Thousand Willow Monastery and the Ninth Temple are really working together.’
Xia Changqiu tossed the Flying Star House’s notice to ng Changdong at this mont.
After reading it, ng Changdong launched into a fit of rage. He tore the notice to shreds and cursed, “That sneaky Ye Zhen!”
Lu Zhou stroked his beard calmly. “ng Changdong, you have nowhere else to go. You’ll only be rushing to your death if you leave. Your life is only worth a heaven-grade weapon.
Although this statent was hurtful, it was the truth.
“I can give you a place to belong.”
The others wondered what Lu Zhou was planning.
Lu Zhou said expressionlessly, “The Thousand Willow Monastery is in need of manpower. If you wish to live, joining the Thousand Willow Monastery is your only option.”
ng Changdong widened his eyes, clearly hesitating.
Yao Qingquan chid in. “Senior Lu is right. You have nowhere to go. Don’t even think about hiding in a place where you think nobody will be able to find you. With Ye Zhen’s abilities, it won’t be difficult for him to find you. Also, this notice has been made public. Do you think you can still maintain your good na? You should live up to the accusations. What do you say, ng Changdong?”
Yao Qingquan’s words hit the mark.
At this mont, Lu Zhou waved his arm and restored ngchangdong’s cultivation base.
ng Changdong was puzzled.
Lu Zhou said indifferently, “I promised you that I’ll spare your life. You may leave now...”
“...” Where could ng Changdong go? If he returned to the Flying Star House, he would surely be flayed alive. If he hid, he would have to live as a fugitive. His life stone was still at the Flying Star House. Did he have to take his own life? When he recalled his ti in the Flying Star House, he felt upset. After what seed like hours, he finally bowed and said, “Senior Lu, I have but one request.”
“What is it?”
“The Thousand Willow Monastery is small. There aren’t many disciples here. Moreover, it has trouble looking for successors. It’s difficult to achieve great things here...” ng Changdong said.
Xia Changqiu and Tian Buji. “...”
The truth was often hurtful.
Yao Qingquan hastily said, “In that case, you may join the Ninth Temple.”
Regardless if he was weak, ng Changdong was still a Nine-leaf cultivator, after all. Most forces would still try to recruit him.
“No... I wish to serve Senior Lu,” ng Changdong said with a bow.
The others were shocked.
Yao Qingquan imdiately gave up. He sighed softly.
Lu Zhou considered it briefly before nodding and said, “Quality over quantity. I have no need for elders as all the positions are filled. Since you’re a Nine-leaf cultivator, I’ll grant you the position of Guardian in my pavilion. You may stay or leave; it’s your choice.”
How infuriating and arrogant! Even a Nine-leaf cultivator was not qualified to beco an elder! Just how powerful was this old man’s sect?
Xia Changqiu felt extrely awkward. In comparison, the Thousand Willow Monastery hardly looked presentable.
“I’m willing to offer what ager service I can.”
“Ding! Gained a subordinate. Reward: 1,000 rit points.” (Note: There will no longer be any rewards for recruiting Eight-leaf cultivators or below)
“Congratulations, Guardian ng.”
“Congratulations, Senior Lu.”
The others cupped their fists.
ng Changdong sighed softly. Although he was demoted to a smaller sect, at the very least, he would be able to preserve his life.
Lu Zhou looked at ng Changdong and said, “You know the Flying Star House very well. In your opinion, how should we deal with this current situation?”
ng Changdong said, “Flying Star House’s Ye Zhen alone is difficult to deal with. Ye Zhen is a man of many sches. He has many tricks up his sleeves. Even the house master, Chen Tiandu, couldn’t do anything about him. He’s also supported by the Sky Marital Court, among others. The Thousand Willow Monastery and the Ninth Temple alone won’t be a match for them. However, I do have a proposal.”
“Let’s hear it.” Lu Zhou waved his arm.
Sikong Beichen and the two First Seats listened silently as well.
ng Changdong spoke forthrightly and said, “The Sky Martial Court has investigated the golden lotus domain before. The greatest organization there is known as the Evil Sky Pavilion. The Evil Sky Pavilion’s Master is a great villain who was hunted down by everyone at one point. However, after fighting back the tides of evil on his own several tis and supporting the people... Hm? Monastery Master Xia, Elder Tian, why are you looking at with these weird expressions?”
Xia Changqiu waved his hand and said, “It’s nothing... I just feel like I’ve heard of the Evil Sky Pavilion before, but I can’t quite say when. Carry on.”
ng Changdong continued, “From what I know, the Sky Martial Court has already developed the Sky Chariot. We can send soone over to contact the golden lotus domain’s Evil Sky Pavilion.”
Lu Zhou’s expression remained unchanged as he said, “You’re from the red lotus domain. Aren’t you worried about inviting the wolf into the sheep’s pen?”
ng Changdong shook his head and said, “From what I know, the golden lotus domain’s cultivators are limited to the Nine-leaf stage. Overall, they’re not powerful. It’s impractical for them to invade the red lotus domain. However, this Evil Sky Pavilion can’t be underestimated... The Blood Sun Temple’s Nine-leaf red lotus karmic fire elite is most likely killed by that great villain.”
At this mont, Xia Changqiu suddenly exclaid, “I rember now!”
“...”
The others were startled. They looked at him curiously.
“What do you rember?”
“I... I t-think the Master of the Evil Sky Pavilion is Senior Lu...”
“...”
Silence descended in the Fair Hall.
Lu Zhou’s expression remained unchanged. He neither admitted nor denied it. Instead, he stood up and said, “Carry on with the discussion. I’m tired.”
‘I have to return and replenish my extraordinary power.’ Lu Zhou left with his hands on his back.
Xia Changqiu imdiately summoned Ji Fengxing over and asked, “Fengxing, when Senior Lu wanted to recruit you, which sect did he say it was?”
Ji Fengxing scratched his head and said, “I think it was the Evil... the Evil Sky Pavilion or sothing...”
ng Changdong. “...”
How awkward.
Wuwu, who had followed Ji Fengxing here, said with a pout, “It is the Evil Sky Pavilion. Sister Yuan’er always talks about it with .”
The others were intrigued.
Even the Ten-leaf Sikong Beichen was curious.
“What else did she say?”
Wuwu did her best to imitate Little Yuan’er as she said, “I have eight seniors and one junior sister. Any one of them can easily smash your head...”
“...”
