Not long after, Mings.h.i.+ Yin rushed into the forest to cultivate.

The next morning.

Before Mings.h.i.+ Yin was fully awake, he felt someone appear next to him. He jolted awake and sat up immediately. Then, he saw Duanmu Sheng holding the Overlord Spear.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin said, Third Senior Brother, you almost scared me to death? Why arent you cultivating?

Duanmu Sheng looked ahead and asked, Old Fourth, is this really okay?

Theres nothing wrong with it. Ill remind you again that you cant talk about him here, Mings.h.i.+ Yin said.

Youre really ungrateful! How can you betray your elder? Duanmu Sheng said as he stabbed the Overlord Spear into the ground.

Boom!

Mings.h.i.+ Yin pointed at the Crimson Sky Palace, where the Scarlet Emperor was staying, and said, You have to use your brains, not just brute force. If you want to kill master then you go ahead and speak to the Scarlet Emperor! I wont stop you!

Duanmu Sheng wilted immediately. How could he have the courage? Then, he said, Promise me that hes fine.

Upon hearing this, Mings.h.i.+ Yin looked to the left and right warily after he shushed Duanmu Sheng. Then, he pulled Duanmu Sheng to a corner and said, I suspect someone has been watching us in the dark. We have to be careful.

Do you have so little confidence in master? Duanmu Sheng asked.

I dont doubt master, Mings.h.i.+ Yin said with a sigh, Although master is powerful, there are some things that we have to solve on our own.

Really?

Third Senior Brother, youre so smart. How can I deceive you? Mings.h.i.+ Yin asked.

Youre right.

Then, Duanmu Sheng scratched his head and said, No, thats not right. Youre still deceiving your master and betraying your elder.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin was rendered speechless by Duanmu Sheng.

Duanmu Sheng said, Masters cultivation isnt low. With his strength, its very easy for him to gain a foothold in the Great Void. Why dont we return to master and enjoy our lives together?

Third Senior Brother, masters ident.i.ty isnt simple. He has too many enemies in the Great Void, Mings.h.i.+ Yin said, Im not saying master isnt capable; Im saying we might be a burden to him.

A burden? Duanmu Sheng frowned.

Think about it. Master has so many enemies. Once a fight starts, everyone will shed all pretense of cordiality. If the enemies cant defeat master, theyll definitely attack us instead. Weve already experienced this several times, Mings.h.i.+ Yin explained, enlightening Duanmu Sheng.

You have a point, Duanmu Sheng said, looking embarra.s.sed.

Mings.h.i.+ Yi continued to say, Hence, we have to listen to the Scarlet Emperor. From now on, we wont acknowledge our master.

Wont acknowledge master?! Duanmu Shengs eyes widened as he stared at Mings.h.i.+ Yin. Have you forgotten how you were beaten up back then?

Mings.h.i.+ Yin shuddered. Then, he hurriedly explained, This is part of the plan. We have to protect ourselves first so that we dont drag master down. Also, be careful of that person called Qi Sheng.

Qi Sheng? The commander of Tu Wei Hall? Duanmu Sheng frowned.

Hes been here a few times. I saw him, Mings.h.i.+ Yin said.

Duanmu Sheng said, Ive interacted with him a few times. Based on his words and actions, it doesnt seem like he harbors ill intentions toward us.

Hes pretending! On the surface, it seems like hes trying to protect us, but who knows what kind of insidious plan he has? Mings.h.i.+ Yin said, Moreover, hes been hinting, whether intentionally or not, trying to make us think that hes Old Seventh. I think hes trying to mislead us!

Duanmu Shengs eyes widened in anger upon hearing this.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin raised his head and said confidently, He thought his act was flawless. Alas, he was too obvious!

Then, Duanmu Sheng asked in a deep voice, Who is he exactly?

Mings.h.i.+ Yin shushed him again before he said in a hushed tone, I dont know who he is nor do I know what his purpose is. Lets just pretend we dont know anything and watch him act.

Duanmu Sheng nodded as he said, Qi Sheng is right.

What?

He said that youll definitely doubt him, Duanmu Sheng said.

???

He predicted my prediction?

Duanmu Sheng said solemnly, Old Fourth, believe me. Hes really Old Seventh.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin felt rather speechless. After a moment, he asked, Uh, Third Senior Brother, how did you ascertain hes Old Seventh?

Intuition.

Huantans Pillar of Destruction.

PavilIon Master, weve arrived.

Lu Zhou had led everyone here because this was also one of the locations marked on the simple map. He needed to retrieve what belonged to him.

Wait here.

Understood.

This was their second time at Huan Tans Pillar of Destruction. They could not help but feel emotional when they saw this place again. At this time, their attention was not on the Pillar of Destruction. Instead, they were all looking at the sky above the Pillar of Destruction where Meng Zhang, the Azure Dragon, was.

Just as Lu Zhou drew close to the Pillar of Destruction, two moon-like orbs appeared high in the sky. A shadow could be vaguely seen moving in the black fog.

Lu Zhou hovered in the air and looked up as he said, Meng Zhang, long time no see. Youre still the same.

The shadow in the dark fog stopped moving. Then, the moon-like orbs vanished before the shadow twisted in the dark fog. Soon enough, a human figure descended from the dark fog.

Its you? You know humans arent allowed to approach the Pillar of Destruction, Meng Zhang said.

Im here to retrieve my thing, Lu Zhou said.

Your thing?

Its been too long. I cant remember many things clearly, Lu Zhou said confidently, As one of the Four Divinities of Heaven, youve existed since ancient times. You should know.

Meng Zhang said in a low voice, Human, you overestimate yourself.

Swoos.h.!.+

Meng Zhang flew back into the dark fog and seemed to have reverted to his immense form. Then, he exhaled and a frosty wind swept out as lightning bolts struck down.

The lightning bolts were stronger than before, seemingly capable of splitting heaven and earth.

At the same time, the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion who had long been on guard brought out their astrolabes and activated their protective energies. Since they were quite far away, it was not difficult for them to resist the residual power.

Hourgla.s.s of Time. Lu Zhous voice was calm.

The Hourgla.s.s of Time was imbued with a small amount of the divine Dao power and a large amount of divine power as it quickly froze everything.

Then, Lu Zhou flashed and appeared next to the Pillar of Destruction before he retrieved the Hourgla.s.s of Time.

When time resumed, all of Meng Zhangs attacks missed.

Hm? Meng Zhang was puzzled. You managed to become a supreme being in 100 years?

I was just lucky, Lu Zhou replied indifferently.

Meng Zhang did not continue to attack. With just a move, he was able to determine Lu Zhous strength. Following that, he a.s.sumed his human form. After a long time, he finally said, You finally returned.

Lu Zhou understood the meaning behind those words. He extended his hand and said, It belongs to me.

Meng Zhang was silent. Since his figure was quite translucent, it was rather difficult to see his expression and figure out what he was thinking.

Lu Zhou did not yield. The memory could not be wrong, and the simple map could not be wrong.

After a while, Meng Zhang sighed and said, You old thing Meeting you is the greatest misfortune of my life!

Following that, Meng Zhang moved and an orb of light flew out.

Lu Zhou raised his hand and caught the orb of light. When he took a look, he was shocked.

The item was Meng Zhangs divine soul pearl?!
