Chapter 1176: As Expected, I Was Tricked Again!

Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction. "Since you've joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, you must remember to keep the matter of the Great Void Seeds a secret."

Lu Wu lifted its head and said, "I'm not that… stupid…"

Then, Lu Wu turned to look at Duanmu Sheng. Just one Great Void Seed was troublesome enough. If news of the ten Great Void Seeds spread out, it would probably cause chaos in the nine heavens. At that time, Venerable Masters would show up one after another. Even if there were ten Lu Wus, it would be useless.

Wuuuu!

Cheng Huang lifted its head and lowered it again to show it was welcoming Lu Wu to the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Lu Wu narrowed its eyes and looked away as though it could not be bothered with Cheng Huang.

Upon seeing this, Cheng Huang looked slightly hurt.

Conch said indignantly, "In the Evil Sky Pavilion, the order of seniority is determined by who joined first. Since you're the newest member, Cheng Huang is your senior."

Lu Wu's ears twitched as it said disapprovingly, "You want… me to lower… my head to it?"

"No. The rules are not so rigid. You just have to have a better attitude. Without a predecessor paving the way, how can there be a bright and broad road for future generations? Don't you agree? As a reasonable beast emperor, I'm sure you understand…" Conch said.

Lu Wu found Conch's latter sentences rather pleasing to the ears. Hence, it nodded at Cheng Huang to avoid making things awkward and muttered something under its breath.

Conch said, "Although it's a little insincere, we all have to start somewhere…"

Cheng Huang did not mind and called out twice in return.

Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction when he saw everyone getting along. Then, it said, "Since you've joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, follow me back."

Lu Wu shook its head and said, "I'm afraid… that won't do. The energies in… Young Master's body haven't completely… fused… Only the Primal Qi… in the Unknown Land… can help him…"

Everyone looked at Duanmu Sheng and felt a little emotional.

Lu Zhou said, "His Great Void Seed has been exposed. With the monster hunting squad completely annihilated, it'll definitely attract the attention of Venerable Masters. Are you really confident?"

Venerable Masters were not weaker than Lu Wu after all.

Lu Wu said, "I have my life heart now… I will… rest here… then return to the Unknown Land… It's impossible for them… to find me…"

'It really likes the word 'Impossible'."

Lu Wu's confidence put people at ease and made people worry at the same time.

At this time, Ye Tianxin said, "Master, the Unknown Land is vast. With the restriction from the balance, it shouldn't be too dangerous for Lu Wu to stay in the Unknown Land. If it were to return with us, it'll definitely attract everyone's attention. With so many people, rumors will inevitably fly. It'll be a little troublesome if Venerable Masters come…"

Lu Zhou nodded. Ye Tianxin had a point so he said, "Alright... I'll leave Duanmu Sheng to you."

Lu Zhou leaped onto Cheng Huang's back with graceful movements. Just as he was about to leave…

Lu Wu called out, "Wait."

"What's the matter?"

Lu Wu said in a faint voice, "I will… go to… the Evil Sky Pavilion. I'll leave… after I have a look…"

Lu Zhou did not object. He knew what Lu Wu was thinking, after all. He wondered how badly the beast emperor had been tricked by Lu Tiantong that it left such a huge scar on it. He shook his head as he thought to himself, 'I'm an honest man. Why would I trick a beast?'

Lu Wu raised its head to look at the top of the cliff. He really wanted to see if the Old Thief really had the ten seeds.

A man and a beast; both had their own thoughts.

"Let's go."

Cheng Huang flew up first like an arrow, and Lu Wu followed suit.

The fierce beast fled, terrified. Some hid in the corners, shivering. The kings that ruled this place in the past were nothing in front of an emperor.

…

The journey from the Misty Forest to the Foreign Tribes in Rongxi and from the Foreign Tribes in Rongxi to the Evil Sky Pavilion only took three days.

Ye Tianxin had already used talismans to inform the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion to mentally prepare themselves.

In order to attract attention, Lu Wu and Cheng Huang shrank by half. Nevertheless, the duo was still much larger than ordinary fierce beasts.

…

Three days later.

In the Evil Sky Pavilion.

"Pavilion Master has sent news that he will return to the Evil Sky Pavilion today. I wonder how long he'll be staying this time," Pan Zhong said as he nudged Zhou Jifeng.

Zhou Jifeng asked curiously, "Miss Six said in her message that the beast emperor is coming as well… Is a beast emperor very powerful?"

"I don't know. I've sent a message to Mr. Seventh, but he's been busy. I don't think he'll be able to return," Pan Zhong said.

"The other disciples aren't coming back as well?"

At this time, Hua Yexing swooped down from the sky and chimed in, "Mr. Eight and Miss Ninth are here…"

Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng exchanged a look and hurriedly walked to the hall. Indeed, soon enough, they saw Zhu Honggong and Little Yuan'er laughing and chatting. The duo said in unison, "Greetings, Mr. Eighth and Miss Ninth."

"There's no need to be so polite. We're a family…" Zhu Honggong said with a smile/

Little Yuan'er said, "Eighth Senior Brother, remember that you can only stay for two days before you have to leave. Second Senior Brother is waiting for you."

Zhu Honggong's smile turned awkward as he said, "Little Junior Sister, can we not talk about that?"

"Okay." Little Yuan'er nodded.

Boom!

Boom!

Two thunderous sounds rang in the air at this moment as two huge figures landed at the side of Golden Court Mountain.

Everyone raised their heads.

"They're back!"

The people of Evil Sky Pavilion rushed out instantly.

Hua Yuexing and Li Xiaomo, the Guardian of the Evil Sky Pavilion, bowed to Lu Zhou when they saw him. "Greetings, Pavilion Master."

Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng looked at Lu Wu from the corners of their eyes and whispered to each other.

"Is that Lu Wu, the beast emperor?"

"I think so. It looks very powerful."

"It has to be powerful to catch the Pavilion Master's eyes!"

Lu Zhou looked at everyone as Ye Tianxin and Conch brought Duanmu Sheng down.

Lu Wu was the first to speak. "I've just joined… the Evil Sky Pavilion… so I'll thank you… in advance… for your guidance…"

"..."

Silence descended immediately. No one knew what to say. They staggered back in shock and wondered if they were dreaming. Did a fierce beast just thank them in advance? No, that was not the important part; did the fierce beast really speak?

Seeing that Lu Wu was rather talkative, Lu Zhou said, "Alright. All of you can do as you please…"

After saying that, Lu Zhou flew toward the eastern pavilion.

This was the moment Lu Wu had been waiting for; it could not wait for Lu Zhou to leave. After Lu Zhou vanished from sight, it lowered its head and its eyes darted around, surveying its surroundings. Then, it huffed and puffed.

Everyone stiffened immediately.

Lu Wu placed its nose near Hua Yuexing and studied her for a moment before saying, "Too weak."

Hua Yuexing. "..."

Li Xiaomo had naturally heard of Lu Wu. He cupped his fists together and said with a smile, "Li Xiamo. Guardian of the Evil Sky Pavilion. You're the beast emperor, Lu Wu?"

"Also weak…"

Lu Wu used its paw and pushed Li Xiamo who was blocking its path to the side so it did not use any strength.

However, Li Xiaomo and Hua Yuexing who were pushed to the side felt that the strength of the push was rather… difficult to describe.

Li Xiaomo. "..."

'Did it just push me aside… dismissively?'

Its claws moved horizontally.

Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng stepped forward and looked up. "Honorable Beast Emperor, please accept our respect."

Lu Wu's ears twitched. 'Why is each worse than the last one? Where are the ten Great Void Seeds? That Old Thief!'

Lu Wu raised its claws and pushed Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng to the side as well.

"..."

Everyone was extremely nervous. They wondered what the beast emperor was trying to do.

Next, Lu Wu sensed the auras of the female disciples of the Derived Moon Palace.

"Too weak!"

'As expected! Was I tricked again? Where are the future ten supreme beings?'

The giant paw pushed all of them aside again.

How could the mighty Venerable Master Lu of the Evil Sky Pavilion have such a bunch of useless subordinates!?
