Chapter 1610: Disciple Greets Master

When Lu Zhou saw the curiosity and doubts in Nan Lis eyes, he answered truthfully, The southern true fire can improve the karmic fire.

Nan Li was briefly stunned by these words. He asked, You want to refine the karmic fire into divine fire? In the first place, not everyone possesses the karmic fire. Even if you possess the karmic fire, using the southern true fire to forcefully refine your karmic fire might result in a backlas.h.!.+

Lu Zhou nodded. Youre not wrong.

Xuanyi said, Divine Lord Nan Li, based on your words, are you doubting Pavilion Master Lus ability?

No, no, no. Nan Li shook his head repeatedly.

Is it convenient for us to stay for a night at the northern Dao hall? Its getting quite late, after all, Xuanyi asked.

Nan Li smiled. Let alone a night, you can even stay for ten days or half a month. Southern Split Mountain will always welcome you.

Very well.

At night.

The people from Xuanyi Palace stayed in Southern Split Mountain.

In the northern Dao temple.

Zhang He flew in and kneeled on one knee as he said to Xuanyi, Your Majesty, I have a request.

At this moment, Xuanyi and Lu Zhou were chatting happily.

What is it? Xuanyi noticed Zhang Hes expression was a little serious.

Today, I witnessed Pavilion Master Lus skills and abilities with my own eyes. I truly admire him. I dont feel worthy of being the Commander of Xuanyi Hall. Therefore, Im willing to a.s.sist Pavilion Master Lu! Zhang He said earnestly. Previously, he was unaware of Lu Zhous ability. After today, he was thoroughly convinced so his words were very sincere.

Xuanyi frowned. Didnt we already discuss this?

We did. However, Pavilion Master Lus cultivation is profound, and his abilities far surpa.s.s mine. If I continue to shamelessly hold onto my position, Im afraid Ill bring shame to Xuanyi Palace when I meet those two people again in the future, Zhang He said.

Xuanyi nodded slightly. Although Zhang He was not extremely smart nor was he meticulous in planning things, he was very righteous and loyal.

Lu Zhou said, I feel that the young man who defeated you using his clone can take on this heavy responsibility. If you insist on giving up your position, you can give it to him.

???

Zhang He was stunned.

Xuanyi was stunned as well.

Upon seeing their reactions, Lu Zhou continued to say, Dont underestimate him. Outwardly, he looks like a despotic and arrogant ruffian who lacks manners. However, hes very shrewd and cunning.

Xuanyi laughed. Pavilion Master Lu seems to know him very well. Now that you mention it, hes really quite interesting.

Zhang He said unwillingly, I still think Pavilion Master Lu is the most suitable.

Dont be rude, Xuanyi admonished him.

Zhang He lowered his head; he no longer dared to speak.

Xuanyi said, Dont mention this matter again.

Understood, Zhang He raised his head and said, I still have something I dont know if I should say.

Speak, Xuanyi said.

Has Your Majesty met the White Emperor recently? Zhang He started with this question.

Upon hearing this, Xuanyi frowned and said, Scram!

Zhang He felt that the situation was not right so he hurriedly turned around and left.

After Zhang He left and the others retreated, Xuanyi cupped his fists together at Lu Zhou and asked, Please dont be angry with him.

Im not that petty.

Thats good. I wont disturb you further, Xuanyi said before he took his leave.

Midnight.

Lu Zhou brought the southern true fire out of the Vast Sky Bag. He suppressed it with the divine power and toyed with it, precisely controlling its heat.

With a flip of his hand, his karmic fire appeared. Following that, he merged the karmic fire with the divine fire.

He had learned this method from the memories of the Unholy One. The Unholy One naturally possessed the karmic fire. He had intended to take the southern true fire away but was delayed due to some matters.

Now that Lu Zhou possessed that knowledge, how could he let go of such a great opportunity?

After the true southern fire was subdued, it seemed harmless as it constantly weaved into Lu Zhous karmic fire.

The process was uneventful and did not cause too much damage.

The next day, Lu Zhou made up an excuse to stay for two more days and did not leave.

Nan Li, who had wished Lu Zhou was stronger, was naturally delighted. He wanted to continue to observe the stability of the formations.

Lu Zhou took advantage of the time to continue refining his karmic fire, gradually absorbing the southern true fire.

Fortunately, he had the Purple Glazed Ceramic, the divine mark robe, the Vast Sky Bag, and most importantly, the divine power. They all easily suppressed the southern true fire.

He spent the entire two days refining his karmic fire.

Two days later.

At night.

When Lu Zhou put the southern true fire into the Vast Sky Bag, a figure flashed past.

Whos so bold? Lu Zhou asked in a deep voice.

The figure rushed into the hall sneakily like a thief. He rolled over on the ground and removed the black cloth from his face.

Thump!

After knocking his forehead on the ground, he said, Disciple greets master!

Old Fourth?

Apart from his fourth disciple, Lu Zhou really could not think of anyone else.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin raised his head and chuckled sheepishly.

Lu Zhou frowned. How dare you. Arent you afraid of being discovered?

Its fine. These people are weak, Mings.h.i.+ Yin said with a smile. Then, in the next second, he moved forward with his knees with a crying expression on his face and hugged Lu Zhous legs as he said, Master! I really thought you died!

No good words can be expected from a scoundrel! Lu Zhou said as he kicked Mings.h.i.+ Yin away. Then, he added, Didnt you say you dont have a master?

Mings.h.i.+ Yin continued kneeling as he said, I swear I was just acting for them to see! This is the Great Void, and the walls have ears. I swear on the Separation Hook that if theres an ounce of untruth in my words, Ill let the Separation Hook kill me!

Enough. Stop talking about useless things. How did all of you and Old Third to the Great Void? Lu Zhou asked.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin told Lu Zhou about what happened with him and Duanmu Sheng before he told Lu Zhou about Qi Sheng as well.

Qi Sheng? Lu Zhou frowned in confusion.

This person intentionally led us to believe hes Old Seventh and secretly helped us. However, the truth is hes very cunning and has yet to show his foxtail, Mings.h.i.+ Yin said.

You dont think hes Old Seventh? Lu Zhou asked.

Impossible! Mings.h.i.+ Yin said confidently, Master, I know Old Seventh very well.

If its not Old Seventh, why did he lure all of you to the Great Void?

Hes trying to curry favor with the Sacred Temple. Hes now Great Emperor Ming Xins lackey. Then, I think hes trying to curry favor with us to rope you in, Mings.h.i.+ Yin said.

Rope me in?

You Arent you the Unholy One? Master, why didnt you tell me about your legendary ident.i.ty earlier? From now on, Im your number one lackey! Mings.h.i.+ Yin said. Then, he waved his fist as he added, Lets see who dares to bully me in the future!

???

Lu Zhou frowned and scolded him, Is that all you got?

Lu Zhous stay in the Great Void was rather smooth now due to his ident.i.ty as the Unholy One. Since everyone misunderstood him, he decided to let them be. Every time he comprehended the Heaven Scroll and the Resurrection Scroll, he felt like he was the Unholy One. Since the world needed an Unholy One, he had decided to become one.

Master, youre the high and mighty Unholy One. Are you planning to return to the peak and take back what youve lost? Mings.h.i.+ Yin asked with a cheeky smile.

Lu Zhou said, Your master doesnt have such ambitions.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin revealed a regretful expression.

Lu Zhou changed the topic and asked, How are the others?

Mings.h.i.+ Yin replied, Eldest and Second Senior Brothers are enjoying themselves at the Azure Emperors place. I heard theyre also partic.i.p.ating in the commanders compet.i.tion. I think they should be going to Xuanyi Palace in a few days to challenge Zhang He. As for Fifth and Sixth Junior Sisters, Im afraid their situation isnt too good at the White Emperors place

Hm? Lu Zhou frowned.

The White Emperor and Qi Sheng have a very good relations.h.i.+p. Qi Sheng is cunning so hes definitely not a good person. My two junior sisters are very simple-minded, and I dont know if the White Emperor is mistreating them, Mings.h.i.+ Yin said.

The White Emperor shouldnt be so stupid. At the very least, theyre future supreme beings, Lu Zhou said.

Thats true, Mings.h.i.+ Yin said before he continued to report, Old Eighth and that Qi Sheng is with the Sacred Temple. Master, theres something I dont know if I should say

Speak frankly.

I suspect that Old Eighth has already betrayed the Evil Sky Pavilion, Mings.h.i.+ Yin said solemnly, During the 100 years you were gone, he has done a lot for the temple. Hes now the number one lackey of the Sacred Temple. No, no, hes the second. Qi Sheng is the number one lackey of the Sacred Temple.

Lu Zhou asked, How did you know this?

I went to the Sacred Temple once. Not only did Old Eighth completely submit to the temple, but hes also spouting nonsense about the Unholy One to do whatever he wants! Mings.h.i.+ Yin said indignantly.

If thats the case, I wont let him off lightly, Lu Zhou said.

Thats right! You have to punish him severely! Mings.h.i.+ Yin added fuel to the fire. Then, he continued to say, As for Ninth Junior Sister and Tenth Junior Sister

Mings.h.i.+ Yin hesitated and stopped speaking.

Lu Zhou frowned.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin took a step back before he said, I will be direct, but please dont be angry. I think Ninth and Tenth Junior Sisters have acknowledged the thief who kidnapped them as their father!

Acknowledged the thief as their father?

In 100 years, those wicked disciples have turned out this way?

In fact, it was only normal for Lu Zhou to feel apprehensive about his disciples. He knew about and experienced the betrayals of Ji Tiandaos example, and there was also Chen Fu, who died in Fragrant Valley, serving as an example.

The relations.h.i.+p between two junior sisters and Emperor Shang Zhang is so good that it makes ones hair stand on end! I heard that he treats them like his daughters. How outrageous! Mings.h.i.+ Yin said angrily.

Lu Zhou said, Emperor Shang Zhang, his name seems vaguely familiar.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin said with a gossipy expression, Do you remember the Dark Prince, the zombie king that guarded one of the Pillars of Destruction? They both had enmity. It was the Dark Prince that cheated with Shang Zhangs concubine!

Lu Zhou looked at Mings.h.i.+ Yin suspiciously. At this moment, not only did Mings.h.i.+ Yin look like a gossipy woman, but Mings.h.i.+ Yin also looked like a treacherous official depicted in the history books. He said with a frown, Old Fourth, theyre all your fellow disciples. Are you sure youre right?

Master, Im not lying. Im only telling you what I think, Mings.h.i.+ Yin said.

If its really as you said, Ill punish all of them severely, Lu Zhou said.

At this time, Mings.h.i.+ Yin muttered, I cant guarantee my speculations are right though

As soon as Lu Zhou heard this, he reprimanded Mings.h.i.+ Yin immediately, Bast*rd! How dare you spout nonsense when youre unsure?

I know Im wrong! Mings.h.i.+ Yin kneeled down obediently on the ground.

Forget it. After all, this isnt the Evil Sky Pavilion. You can leave, Lu Zhou said with a wave of his sleeve.

Leave? Mings.h.i.+ Yin said, Master, let me stay with you. It wasnt easy for me to escape.

I still have a lot of things to do. You should return, Lu Zhou said before he added, It might be safer for you to stay with the Scarlet Emperor.

Once Lu Zhous ident.i.ty was exposed, the ten halls would definitely attack him. At that time, he would have to deal with them alone. It would be difficult to have all his disciples follow him.

Mings.h.i.+ Yins eyes lit up. Alright! Ill work with you in secret!

Your current mission is to grow stronger. You dont need to worry about anything else, Lu Zhou said, Ill personally investigate the situation of the others.

Understood.

Then, Lu Zhou threw the Vast Sky Bag to Mings.h.i.+ Yin and said, The southern true fire is in there. Use it to refine your karmic fire. It can improve your cultivation and will greatly benefit you.

Thank you, master! Mings.h.i.+ Yin. Then, the cheeky smile on his face vanished before he kowtowed to Lu Zhou respectfully and loudly.

Thump!

Master, since disciple isnt by your side, you have to take care.

Alright, go.
