Chapter 806: The Freakish Evil Sky Pavilion
“Stand up and speak,” Lu Zhou said.
The members of the Evil Sky Pavilion rose to their feet.
When Zhu Honggong rose to his feet, Lu Zhou frowned slightly. “Did I allow you to stand?”
Zhu Honggong shuddered and hastily said, “I’m just adjusting my position... Here... You can see better if I move here. Can you see how sincere I am?” As he spoke, he began to prostrate himself on the ground again.
“...” Yu Zhenghai covered his eyes. They had been building up a glorious image in the red lotus domain for such a long time. To the people of the red lotus domain, the Evil Sky Pavilion was a lofty force not to be taken lightly. All of them were worthy of being worshipped by others. With Old Eighth’s antics, he had completely destroyed that lofty image.
Nevertheless, Yao Qingquan was shocked. The Evil Sky Pavilion disciples, all elites in their own right, were so respectful and reverent toward Lu Zhou. It was apparent that Lu Zhou had a high status and prestige.
“What’s the situation in the Evil Sky Pavilion?” Lu Zhou asked.
Si Wuya knew that talismans were rare and that time was short. He quickly said, “The nine provinces are stable. With Cheng Huang’s protection, Sixth Senior Sister is unrivaled. The beasts and the Other Tribes are not a threat to us.”
“Is Zuo Yushu a Nine-leaf cultivator now?” Lu Zhou intentionally asked about one person to prevent the others from gaining too much information about the Evil Sky Pavilion.
“Elder Zuo has already reached the Nine-leaf stage a long time ago... Currently, she’s still familiarizing herself with her NIne-leaf power.” Si Wuya had seen the unfamiliar faces around his master so he did not speak unnecessarily and only answered his master’s question.
“Forces from the red lotus domain will be invading soon. Be careful,” Lu Zhou said.
“Don’t worry, master. I’ll look after the Evil Sky Pavilion; nothing will happen to us,” Si Wuya said with a confident smile.
Lu Zhou nodded. He felt at ease.
The previous broadcast was cut short so they did not know the result of the battle. However, it seemed like the force the red lotus domain sent previously had been completely defeated. No wonder Mo Buyan was willing to back down.
At this moment, Si Wuya said, “Master, I’ll be sending some information over through this talisman Formation later.”
Upon hearing this, Meng Changdong could not help but ask in surprise, “You know how to send information over?”
“Of course. It’s rather easy after all. Just write the message down on a talisman or a canvas and burn it inside the Formation,” Si Wuya replied.
“... That’s a secret only known by the Sky Martial Court and the Flying Star House. You... To think you know that as well. That’s incredible, just incredible...” Meng Changdong said, still shocked.
“Who are you, sir?” Si Wuya asked.
Lu Zhou said sternly, “Watch your manners. He’s a new Nine-leaf cultivator of the Evil Sky Pavilion. He’s Guardian Meng, the first guardian of the pavilion.”
When the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion heard this, they did not dare to act recklessly. All of them bowed in unison.
“Greetings, Guardian Meng.”
Meng Changdong was moved when the Evil Sky Pavilion’s members greeted him. Although he had been an elder in the Flying Star House, only he knew the wretched treatment he had received there. Even Ye Zhen’s disciple could order him around. Now that he joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, he finally gained the respect and status he deserved. How could he not feel moved?
After a brief moment, Meng Changdong inhaled deeply before he cupped his fists together and said, “Nice to meet you.”
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou was lost in his thoughts. Indeed, there were many things that were not convenient to be spoken out loud in front of so many people. After a beat, he said, “Guardian Meng, I’ll make the preparations later. You’ll exchange information with Si Wuya.”
“Understood,” Meng Changdong said.
Si Wuya bowed and said, “Yes, master.”
At this moment, the broadcast was cut off.
Lu Zhou turned to look at the boxes in the hall. Then, he turned around and left without saying anything.
Sikong Beichen wanted to say something, but he was too shy to speak out. He sighed before he said emotionally, “Nie Qingyun, you don’t have the bearing of a sect master. Look at Brother Lu... That’s how a sect master should behave and conduct himself.”
Nie Qingyun said contemptuously, “I can say the same about you.”
At this moment, Yu Zhenghai said to Nie Qingyun, “Sect Master Nie, shall we spar?”
“I would love to.”
With this, the duo made their way to the cloud platform.
...
Lu Zhou was not as carefree as the others. After he returned to his room, he wrote down his instructions to Si Wuya on the talismans.
Meng Changdong took the talismans and exchanged messages with Si Wuya before he presented Lu Zhou with the information he received from Si Wuya.
Lu Zhou was not worried that Meng Changdong would leak the information. He would not employ someone he did not trust and would not doubt someone he employed.
After reading Si Wuya’s information, Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction.
“Apart from Mingshi Yin, Nan Gongwei and Zuo Yushu are now Nine-leaf cultivators. Ye Tianxin is also a Nine-leaf cultivator, and she has mastered the karmic fire. Apart from that, she also has Cheng Huang. Duanmu Sheng has been cultivating diligently and has reached the Eight-leaf stage. Leng Luo and Pan Litian are attempting the Nine-leaf stage... There are two Nine-leaf cultivators in the Divine Capital. Zhao Yue’s cultivation progress is slower since she’s busy with governing the land. Zhu Honggong is now a Six-leaf cultivator. Zhou Jifeng and Pan Zhong are now Four-leaf cultivators. Hua Yuexing is now an Eight-leaf cultivator.”
The collective strength of the Evil Sky Pavilion was now at an unimaginable level.
However, Lu Zhou was rather puzzled. Why did Si Wuya not report his own cultivation base? He stroked his beard as he wondered out loud, “Is he worried that I’d reprimand him?”
After reading the message, Lu Zhou burned it.
Next, it was time for him to deal with the red lotus domain.
“The Sky Martial Court, the palace, Luo Xuan...” Lu Zhou muttered to himself, “Also, what’s a Birth Chart?”
There were many questions that he needed answers to.
...
Over the next two days, Lu Zhou cultivated in his room.
On the third day, Little Yuan’er came to the room door and bowed as she said, “Master, Eldest Senior Brother and Nie Qingyun are still at it!”
Lu Zhou opened his eyes. He gauged his Primal Qi. His cultivation base was already in the late phase. If he could cultivate a little longer, he could sprout the tenth leaf.
“I see.” Lu Zhou stood up and left the room.
He appeared on the peak with Little Yuan’er and looked at the cloud platform. The cloud platform was spacious so he could clearly see Yu Zhenghai and Nie Qingyun fighting with all their might.
Energy sabers danced in the air.
The red and golden flashes were dizzying to watch.
At this moment, Sikong Beichen saw Lu Zhou. He unleashed his grand technique and arrived before Lu Zhou. He cupped his fists together and said with a smile on his face, “Brother Lu, your first disciple is amazing!”
“How so?” Lu Zhou asked.
“This has gone one for three days and more than ten rounds. Yu Zhenghai’s performance is remarkable. Although Nie Qingyun suppressed his cultivation base to make the fight fair, he’s still a Ten-leaf cultivator, after all. Even if it’s very slight, he still has the upper hand. However, Yu Zhenghai is honorable even in defeat throughout the ten battles.”
At this moment, Yu Zhenghai unleashed the Sovereign Descent.
A waterfall of energy sabers fell from the sky.
The Cloud Mountain disciples were in awe no matter how many times they had seen this.
“He lost all ten fights?” Lu Zhou frowned. “I’m ashamed of him.”
“...” Sikong Beichen was speechless. After a beat, he cleared his throat and said, “He’s a Nine-leaf cultivator fighting a Ten-leaf cultivator. Brother Lu, aren’t you asking too much of him?”
“This is how I’ve always been with my disciples. Moreover, Nie Qingyun didn’t spar with him using his Ten-leaf power.”
It was more difficult than reaching the heavens for a Nine-leaf cultivator to defeat a Ten-leaf cultivator.
“A strict teacher will produce fine students. I’m enlightened.” Sikong Beichen turned around and looked at the energy sabers in the skies.
The technique, Sovereign Descent, was a truly amazing sight.
Nie Qingyun looked at the incoming attacks intently. His saber moves were neat, and he always parried the energy sabers without any unnecessary moves. His moves were simple and effective. At this moment, he tossed out an energy saber that spun around him, keeping the onslaught of energy sabers from Yu Zhenhai at bay. Then, he said, “Brother Yu, shall we stop here?”
Yu Zhenghai gripped the Jasper Saber and said, “You fell for my trick.”
The energy sabers from the Sovereign Descent were in the midst of descending when Yu Zhenghai suddenly unleashed a huge energy saber that was several feet long. He brought the energy saber down with a crushing momentum.
The energy saber vibrated.
Nie Qingyun was certain he could easily dodge this attack. However, after a moment, he was shocked when he discovered the energy sabers from the Sovereign Descent had cut off his escape routes. In the end, he was left with no choice but to parry the blow with his own energy saber.
Boom!
Yu Zhenghai’s energy saber fell.
Nie Qingyun looked up; he discovered there were two more energy sabers after the first one fell.
“Nice move!” Yu Zhenghai brought his Jasper Saber down. His aura, power, and techniques were at an all-time high at this moment.
