Chapter 1135 - The Position of the Tower Master of the White Tower Council

Chapter 1135: The Position of the Tower Master of the White Tower Council

Lu Zhou said, “When you return, tell Tower Master Lan I won’t go back on my words.”

Ning Wanqing said, “Yes.”

Ning Wanqing straightened his back. He did not leave; his eyes were staring blankly at the air. He could sense the fluctuation of energy and little Great Void energy that had yet to disappear. After a moment, he said, “There’s a question I’d like to ask…”

“Speak.”

“Brother Duanmu is Pavilion Master Lu’s third disciple, and he possesses the Great Void Seed. Tower Master Lan has also previously mentioned that the Evil Sky Pavilion’s sixth disciple, Miss Ye, possesses the Great Void energy. I… I… It’s not that I want to pry, but… there are some matters that I can’t say out loud…” Ning Wanqing stammered.

“I allow you to speak freely. If you have anything to say, say it,” Lu Zhou said.

“Brother Duanmu probably didn’t participate in the Great Void Expedition. With his cultivation base now, he couldn’t have entered the Unknown Land. The same goes for Miss Ye. Therefore, whether it’s their Great Void Seed or Great Void energy, I figure they must have been bestowed by Pavilion Master Lu,” Ning Wanqing said. He paused for a moment before he asked, “If that’s the case, why didn’t you use the seed or the energy on yourself?”

Lu Zhou calmly replied, “The heaven and earth shackles.”

No matter what the heaven and earth shackles were, he could use it to answer many tricky questions. After all, he could not tell people that he had the blue lotus that was even more awesome than the Great Void Seed, could he?

Ning Wanqing thought to himself for a moment before he nodded. “I see…”

Lan Xihe was facing her end. She had once sought the Great Void energy to solve the problem, but it was useless. The Great Void energy could break the shackles of the eight or nine leaves’ limit, but it could not rectify the mistake in Lan Xihe’s cultivation.

At this time, Ning Wanqing suddenly bowed and said, “I promise to keep the matter of Brother Duanmu possessing the Great Void Seed a secret. If the secret leaks out even a little, I’ll die a horrible death.”

“Are you afraid I’ll kill you to silence you?” Lu Zhou asked.

“I…” Of course, Ning Wanqing was afraid Lu Zhou would kill him to silence him. However, he said, “I just think this matter should be kept strictly a secret as to avoid unnecessary trouble…”

Lu Zhou looked at Ning Wanqing. After a moment of silence, he asked, “Who do you think dares to covet my things in this world?”

Ning Wanqing said, “Pavilion Master Lu’s cultivation is unfathomable; you’re the mightiest. However…” He paused before he said, “The Four Great Uncharted Lands have been isolated from us for a long time. Apart from the Great Void, there are three other Uncharted Lands. There might be experts who possess more than 15 Birth Charts.”

“15 Birth Charts?” Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow.

“I’m young, and my knowledge is shallow. These are only things I’ve heard about so I’m not sure they’re true,” Ning Wanqing said.

Lu Zhou thought of the Young Master of the Qin clan, Qin Moshang, whom he had met near the Cold Pond on the peak of the snowy mountain. The green lotus domain’s existence had been confirmed, and the Qin clan’s ghost servant had also come to the red lotus domain. Ning Wanqing’s words were not without truth. It seemed like everyone’s bound by the heaven and earth shackles. If his seventh disciple’s speculation was right, what were the other two places then?

After a moment, Lu Zhou said, “You should return and report to your superiors. I’ll visit the White Tower Council in three days.”

Ning Wanqing nodded and said, “Understood.”

After Ning Wanqing left, Lu Zhou sent someone to summon Meng Changdong, the Guardian of the Evil Sky Pavilion, to the Preservation Hall. Then, he sent Meng Changdong and Zhao Hongfu to summon and bring Ye Tianxin to the capital in the red lotus domain.

…

In the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Ye Tianxin was puzzled when she learned of her master’s orders.

“Fifth Senior Sister, did master say why?” Ye Tianxin asked.

Zhao Yue shook her head and said, “Guardian Meng only conveyed the order and didn’t say anything else. In any case, you’ve been in the Evil Sky Pavilion for a long time so it’s good for you to go out and have some fun. I want to go out, but I can’t get away yet.”

Ye Tianxin nodded and said, “Since master has given the order, I will naturally obey. I’m just worried about leaving Cheng Huang behind.”

The runic passage was not that big. Although Cheng Huang had shrunk a lot in size, he was still too big for the runic passage.

“Sixth Junior Sister, you’re worrying for nothing. Who dares to covet Cheng Huang?”

Zhao Yue had a point.

Ye Tianxin did not waste time and bade farewell to the people in the Evil Sky Pavilion and left for the red lotus domain through Zhao Hongfu’s runic passage on the same day.

…

Just when the sun was about to set, Zhao Hongfu led Ye Tianxin to the entrance of the Preservation Hall. Then, she said casually, “Miss Sixth… Aih, I really don’t like being so formal. Sister Ye, the Pavilion Master is inside…”

Ye Tianxin did not mean this casual form of address. As long as it was pleasing to the ears, it was fine. She asked with a smile, “You’re Zhao Hongfu, the runic genius that master recently recruited, right?”

“Sister Ye, you’ve heard of me? I’m already so famous!?” Zhao Hongfu said, delighted.

Ye Tianxin smiled and said, “Thank you for bringing me here.”

“Don’t mention it, don’t mention it,” Zhao Hongfu said before she made an inviting gesture.

This was the first time Ye Tianxin left the golden lotus domain, it was only natural she was still not used to her new surroundings. She looked around curiously when she entered the hall before her eyes landed on a handsome and dignified man sitting cross-legged with a calm expression on his face.

‘Is this master?’

Although Si Wuya had discreetly told everyone in the Evil Sky Pavilion about the change in their master’s appearance, she was still shocked when she saw their master.

At this moment, Lu Zhou slowly opened his eyes. His eyes found the white-clad Ye Tianxian who seemed frozen and said, “Sit.”

‘What a familiar voice and attitude…;

Ye Tianxin kneeled on the ground immediately. “Greetings, master.”

“No need for formalities,” Lu Zhou said.

“Thank you, master.” Ye Tianxin rose to her feet before she kneeled again on a futon nearby.

Lu Zhou sensed her aura briefly before he said, “Your cultivation is progressing very fast.”

“It’s all thanks to master’s guidance that I manage to progress so much,” Ye Tianxin said.

“When did you learn the art of flattery from Old Eighth?” Lu Zhou asked, perplexed.

Ye Tianxin lowered her head in embarrassment.

Lu Zhou said indifferently, “Forget it. I called you here because I have something to hand over to you.”

“Master, what are your orders?”

“I want you to take over the position of the Tower Master of the White Tower Council,” Lu Zhou said.

Ye Tianxin was stunned.

Lu Zhou said, “The White Tower Council is one of the main forces that maintains the balance in the white lotus domain. You’ve met the Tower Master, Lan Xihe…”

Ye Tianxin recalled the peerless woman she met with Cheng Huang previously. She asked, “So she’s the Tower Master of the White Tower Council?”

“That’s right.”

Ye Tianxin immediately kowtowed and said, “Master, I’m loyal to the Evil Sky Pavilion and have no other intentions. It’s better to hand the position over to another person!”

Lu Zhou shook his head and said, “I’ve already agreed on your behalf.”

“This… Master, my cultivation is too low. I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for me to take on this important task. If I don’t perform well, I’m afraid I’ll embarrass master, I…” Ye Tianxin said.

Lu Zhou interjected, “Out of everyone in the Evil Sky Pavilion, you’re the most suitable for this position. You were once the Palace Master of the Derived Moon Palace so you have the ability to lead. Your Eldest and Second Senior Brother are both men so it’s inconvenient; your Third Senior Brother’s whereabouts are currently unknown; Zhao Yue needs to stay in Great Yan; Little Yuan’er and Conch are too young. Therefore, you’re the most suitable candidate…”

These words made Ye Tianxin hesitate.

At the same time, Si Wuya’s voice rang from outside.

“Sixth Senior Sister, we have the runic passages now; you can come and go as you like. Moreover, with master’s support, what are you afraid of?”

After Si Wuya walked in, he kneeled in front of Lu Zhou. “Greetings, master.”

“Rise to your feet and speak.”

Si Wuya said, “Sixth Senior Sister, this is also an opportunity for you. After all, no matter how strong master is, master is only one person. There are many things he can’t do at once…”

In other words, as a disciple, Ye Tianxin should share her master’s burdens.

Ye Tianxin’s heart moved when she heard this. She immediately said, “Since master trusts me, I’ll do my best.”

Lu Zhou nodded and said, “If you really don’t like it, you can leave at that time. Alright, you can rest first. Come and see me again in two days.”

“Understood.”

After Ye Tianxin left, Lu Zhou spoke to Si Wuya about Great Tang. Everything was in order so he let Si Wuya go as well.

…

Two days later.

Inside the 100,000-foot-tall white tower.

Lan Xihe stood on the 72nd floor and looked at the ground.

The blue-clad female attendant asked, “Tower Master, do you really plan to hand over your position to Pavilion Master Lu’s disciple?”

“Do you think there’s anyone more suitable than Pavilion Master Lu’s disciples?” Lan Xihe asked in return as she raised her head to look at the sky.
