Chapter 1320: Punishment

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As soon as Lu Zhou closed the book, the scripts from the Heavenly Writing vanished. The blue lotus avatar in his body slowly calmed down as well. He did not expect the book to resonate so greatly with the Heavenly Writing. At the same time, a word rose in his mind: why?

What surprised him even more was the 26 letters on the cover. Apart from that, the password to open the book was related to ‘The bright moon shines over the sea; from far away we share this moment together’.

In the end, he was still left with a lot of questions and no answers.

Although he had experienced many things here, he still knew nothing.

Yuan Lang had said Qin Renyue had found the book in Ping Dan. Based on this, it was clear that not only did Ji Tiandao go to Yu Zhong, but he had gone to Ping Dan as well. Not only did Ji Tiandao obtain ten Great Void Seeds, but he had also obtained various cultivation methods and treasures. No wonder the Evil Sky Pavilion became the target of all cultivators.

An innocent man would still be found guilty of possessing treasures. No matter what method Ji Tiandao had used to obtain all these things, they were not something an Eight-leaf cultivator could protect.

In a way, Jiang Wenxu was right. If the golden lotus cultivators had stayed at the eight-leaf stage forever, the black lotus domain, the red lotus domain, or the green lotus domain would not have much interest in the golden lotus domain at all.

In order to maintain the balance, the Equalizers had to maintain the situation in the golden lotus domain at all times. After all, the Free Men did not dare to act rashly.

Lu Zhou thought about the recent upheavals in the golden lotus domain and wondered if the Equalizers were already getting rid of unknown variables.

Yuan Lang’s expression was one of surprise as he bowed and said, “Congratulations, old sir, on unlocking the book!”

Lu Zhou looked at Yuan Lang and said, “I indeed lost this book. Return and tell Qin Renyue that I acknowledge this favor.”

Yuan Lang said, “We only returned this book to its original owner.”

Lu Zhou nodded and praised Yuan Lang. “Very good.”

Yuan Lang retreated to the side respectfully again. He was relaxed once again. This meant that the conflict between the Qin clan and the Evil Sky Pavilion had been resolved.

After Lu Zhou put away the book in his hand, he looked at Zhi Wenzi and asked, “How do you plan to deal with today’s matter?”

Zhi Wenzi replied, “We acted rashly today. I’m willing to apologize and make amends for today’s matter.”

Mingshi Yin muttered, “If it’s useful to apologize, what’s the use of having prisons?”

“…”

Zhi Wenzi asked, “Old sir, can I speak a few words from the bottom of my heart?”

“Speak.”

“As a subject, I obey my ruler and do my duties. If His Majesty wants my death, then I can’t live. If His Majesty wants me to go east, then I definitely don’t dare to go west…” He paused for a moment before he continued to say, “In regard to today’s matter, it’s no longer important who’s right or wrong. If it’s possible, I’d like to invite you to meet His Majesty. Everything will be left to the emperor’s judgment.”

Zhi Wenzi’s last sentence was said loudly and confidently.

Mingshi Yin rolled his eyes and said, “I need to correct you. You’re a subject, but we’re not. Who are you trying to scare by repeatedly mentioning the emperor? Apart from that, who’s your emperor? Do you think any person is worthy of meeting my master?”

“…”

Mingshi Yin added, “If he wants to meet my master, then he should come to my master.”

Indeed. No matter how high the status of the emperor of Great Qin was, it had nothing to do with the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Zhi Wenzi was rendered speechless by these words.

At this time, Lu Zhou asked, “Are you saying that all of these were the emperor’s idea?”

Zhi Wenzi remained silently. It was clearly a tacit agreement.

Lu Zhou patted the armrest of the chair lightly before he rose to his feet. “I won’t say anything about the matter with the Zhao Residence. However, you injured my disciple. I won’t let that slide.”

“This…” Zhi Wenzi was frightened by Lu Zhou’s sudden change of topic.

Lu Zhou flicked his sleeves and placed his hands on his back before he said, “Destroy his Birth Chart as punishment.”

“…”

Zhi Wenzi and Zhi Wuzi retreated as soon as Lu Zhou’s voice fell.

Several cultivators moved to stand in front of the two brothers, looking as though they were facing a great enemy.

Zou Ping was supported by two of his men and retreated as well.

Yuan Lang, one of the 49 Swordsmen, shook his head and said, “Why bother? You’re just like an ant trying to stop a chariot from moving.”

Yuan Lang thought that if he were in Zhi Wenzi’s shoes, he would gladly accept the loss of one Birth Chart. If the matter escalated, the punishment would be worse than the loss of one Birth Chart.

Zou Ping, whose injuries had recovered slightly, cupped his fists together and asked, “Old sir, must you be so aggressive?”

Lu Zhou pushed his hand out.

A Fiend Monk’s Hand Seal, which contained the divine energy, flew toward Zou Ping immediately.

Everyone turned pale with fright.

The Fiend Monk’s Hand Seal easily sent the weaker cavalrymen flying.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Fiend Monk’s Hand Seal grabbed Zou Ping at lightning speed before tightening its grip around him.

Crack!

Boom!

Zou Ping released energy seals to resist the Fiend Monk’s Hand Seal.

The sound of collision from the energy seals was thunderous.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The force of the collision rippled out into the surroundings.

Zou Ping’s 97 subordinates who had just taken a few steps back were swept away by the energy.

Meanwhile, Zou Ping continued to struggle.

At this time, Zhi Wenzi cried out, “Go!”

He grabbed Zhi Wuzi and soared into the sky along with the other cultivators he had brought with him, leaving the courtyard.

The cavalrymen flew into the sky as well.

Without waiting for Lu Zhou to speak, Yuan Lang shouted, “Stop them!”

48 green energy swords appeared in the sky above the Zhao Residence, quickly weaving into a formation and covering the sky.

Soon enough, an even more powerful person appeared in the sky.

Zhi Wenzi cried out in surprise, “Venerable Master Fan?”

Fan Zhong looked around and saw Zou Ping, the commander of the legendary troop, who was still struggling, and Zhi Wenzi and Zhi Wuzi who wore unsightly expressions on their faces. He frowned in confusion. “Zhi Wenzi?”

Zhi Wenzi looked down at Lu Zhou and said, “Old sir, this isn’t my original intention. Goodbye!”

Zhi Wenzi and Zhi Wenzi suddenly spun before shooting out a beam of light respectively into the sky.

Upon seeing this, Fan Zhong exclaimed, “As expected of the Emperor’s Gemini! Zhi Wenzi and Zhi Wuzi are connected like Yin and Yang.”

Bang!

The two beams of light broke through the net of energy swords and flew toward the horizon.

“Fan Zhong,” Lu Zhou called out.

Fan Zhong was briefly stunned. When he recovered, he said, “I heard Brother Lu is here so I came to visit.”

“Stop Zhi Wenzi and Zhi Wuzi,” Lu Zhou said bluntly.

“This…” Fan Zhong hesitated. If it was possible, he did not want to offend anyone.

Fan Zhong had always tried to maintain a neutral stance, resulting in his indecisiveness. Back then, Tuoba Sicheng had advised him to work together to suppress the enemy, and he had hesitated. Now that Lu Zhou asked him to stop the Emperor’s Gemini, he hesitated again. After all, Zhi Wenzi and Zhi Wuzi were the subordinates of the emperor of Great Qin. They were not as simple as they looked.

Lu Zhou grabbed Zou Ping as he asked, “You’re unwilling?”

Fan Zhong thought about it for a moment before he said, “Please wait a moment, Brother Lu.”

Swoosh!

When Fan Zhong moved, the void rippled. In just a blink of an eye, he appeared above Zhi Wenzi and Zhi Wuzi.

When Fan Zhong’s shadow fell on the duo, they raised their heads in unison.

“Venerable Master Fan, why are you doing this?”

“You’ve offended my friend, and you still want to flee? Come back here immediately.”

At the same time, countless palm seals fell from the sky and hit the two brothers. The special energy caused the two brothers to be frozen.

Boom!

Soon enough, the two brothers dropped heavily from the sky and spat out blood.

At this time, the Longevity Sword flew out.

Yu Shangrong did not move at all and only controlled the Longevity Sword from a great distance.

The Longevity Sword looked like a red meteor as it sailed across the sky and pierced the two brothers’ protective energies when they fell.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
