Lu Zhou stood up.
With a flicker, Zhang Xuan left the Hall of Healing.
The night was pleasant. Other than the occasional birds flying across the sky, the Imperial City was very quiet at night.
Since no one from the Imperial Palace appeared, it was clear that the voice had only been transmitted to him.
Lu Zhou sped toward the source of the voice.
In a breath's time, he appeared on the city wall.
When Lu Zhou saw the unconscious soldiers on the wall, he said, "Come out."
Lan Xihe, who was dressed in an elegant long dress, stepped into the air from the opposite side of the tower.
Lu Zhou looked over.
Lan Xihe's complexion was much better than last time, but it could be seen that she had not completely recovered.
"It's been half a year, and Pavilion Master Lu has aged again …" Lan Xihe smiled faintly.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you. It's just a disguise," Lu Zhou said.
Lan Xihe was startled at first, then he sighed and said, "Many people pursue eternal youth but are unable to achieve it. Pavilion Master Lu, on the other hand, is doing the opposite."
Lu Zhou did not respond to her.
"Tower Master Lan, why are you looking for me in the middle of the night?"
And he had come all the way from the White Tower.
Lan Xihe said, "This is a war … it is not as simple as a victory or defeat between cultivators. Is Pavilion Master Lu mentally prepared?"
"Is there a difference?"
"Of course."
Lan Xihe smiled and said to the moonlight, "You and I might both die."
Lu Zhou's expression remained unchanged. He stroked his beard as he swept his gaze across the Imperial city.
Lan Xihe continued.
"Your disciple sent a message to me … I would like to know if this is Pavilion Master Lu's intention?"
Lu Zhou said.
"Meeting Si Wuya is the same as meeting me."
Lan Xihe smiled.
As bright and beautiful as the moonlight, she said, "I didn't expect that there would come a day when Pavilion Master Lu has to ask for help."
Begging for help?
Lu Zhou frowned slightly.
What nonsense did Seventh Brother write in his letter?
Lu Zhou said nothing. After all, he did not know what message he had sent. However, due to his trust in his disciple, he wasn't in a hurry to deny it.
Lan Xihe's smile froze.
"Black Emperor Mu 'erte and Dark Light have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time … They want to unify the Black, Red, and White territories. Every once in a while, the horde of sea beasts would arrive at the Endless Sea to the east of the red lotus domain. They would not let go of this opportunity.
"The Alliance Master of the Dark Glory, Fan Ruozhi, has a cultivation base of 11 Birth Charts, while the Dark Emperor, Mu Erte, has a cultivation base of 12 Birth Charts. This time, the Beast Calamity has mobilized at least one Beast Emperor and four Beast Kings. Disregarding the rest, just this Beast Emperor alone is not something that you and I can handle."
When Lu Zhou heard this, he said, "The Beast Monarch?"
Lan Xihe looked at Lu Zhou with a complicated gaze as he slowly explained, "Ordinary beasts correspond to mortals, and beasts correspond to cultivators. Beasts can produce life hearts. Beasts with a life heart of 1,500 years or more are called Birth Chart Beasts. Beasts with a life heart of 2,000 years or more are called Beast Kings, and beasts with a life heart of 5,000 years or more are called Beast Emperors.
"Beast Emperors have lived for at least eight thousand years, or even ten thousand years."
Speaking of this.
Lan Xihe turned to look at Lu Zhou. He tried to read Lu Zhou's expression.
Alas, Lu Zhou's expression was as calm as ever. It was impossible to tell if he was happy or sad.
"So, you think you'll die?" Lu Zhou did not include himself in the equation.
Lan Xihe said,
"My lifespan is coming to an end, and I have long since become indifferent to life and death. Pavilion Master Lu, on the other hand, has a strong life aura. Aren't you afraid? "
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said,
"Lan Xihe, you were like this when I first met you. Now that we meet again, you're still like this … You think too highly of yourself and look down on others."
If it were not for the fact that she was the White Tower's Master, Lu Zhou would have said that she was a snob.
Lan Xi frowned and asked, "Pavilion Master Lu is confident in killing the Beast Monarch?"
Lu Zhou did not reply.
This reminded him of the Kun in the Endless Sea.
A fatal blow could take the Kun away, but the prerequisite was that its power had to be exhausted. This was a huge price to pay, and it showed how powerful the Kun was.
However, if it was the same against a Beast Emperor, Lu Zhou would have to reconsider.
Lu Zhou asked, "Can't you deal with the Beast Emperor?"
Lan Xihe shook his head. "I can't kill it, but it can't do anything to me either … In the past, during the Cosmos Plan, the human cultivators encountered Beast Kings — four Beast Kings."
"…"
From this comparison of strength, Beast Emperor's strength should be above 13 Life Providences, but it couldn't be much higher.
"If the Beast Emperor invades, are you going to sit here and wait for death?" Lu Zhou asked.
Lan Xihe said,
"This is Hong Lian's business. It has nothing to do with the White Tower." She paused before continuing, "Actually, I have another reason for coming here today."
"Speak."
"I advise Pavilion Master Lu not to interfere in this matter … Don't be angry, Pavilion Master Lu. I admire Pavilion Master Lu very much, and I don't want Pavilion Master Lu to die because of this. The Red Lotus can be given to Mu 'erte first. Once the Beast Tide recedes, with Pavilion Master Lu's cultivation, it will be a piece of cake to take back the Red Lotus, "Lan Xihe said lightly.
One had to admit that no one had thought of Lan Xihe's method.
Avoiding the sharp edge was indeed a good idea, but … when the time came, no one could say for sure what kind of unforeseen event would occur.
Lu Zhou said.
"What if I insist on interfering?"
Lan Xihe sighed heavily.
"I guessed that Pavilion Master Lu would definitely intervene."
"Since you've already guessed it, why ask?"
"Let's give it a try. We won't lose anything." Lan Xihe paused for a moment before he said, "The white tower can help the Evil Sky Pavilion, but I have a condition. Don't be angry, Pavilion Master Lu. Listen to me before you make a decision."
Lu Zhou turned around and stroked his beard.
"Speak."
Lan Xihe said,
"If possible … I would like to invite Pavilion Master Lu to take over the position of White Tower Master."
…
The night breeze blew and the moonlight shone brightly.
When his gaze fell on Lan Xihe's face, Lu Zhou felt as though she had aged. There were some wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and there were streaks of white in her hair.
Lu Zhou was not in a hurry to refuse.
"You still have five years to live?"
"Maybe three years …" Lan Xihe shook his head and said softly, "I want to find a new owner for the white tower before I die. Only in this way can the Great Netherworld, the White Tower, the Black Tower, and the Great Circle Tower be in eternal peace. "
"You seem to hate war."
"I hate it … I hate it very much," Lan Xihe said. "That's why I don't like to kill people, but there are many things that I can't control."
"What a good excuse."
"Pavilion Master Lu, have you agreed?" Lan Xihe's tone revealed a hint of delight.
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I'm not qualified to be the White Tower's Master."
Hearing this, Lan Xihe felt disappointed. He lowered his head and looked at the moonlight on the city wall … No one knew what he was thinking.
"But …"
Lu Zhou changed the topic. "There's one person who's qualified to be the Pagoda Master."
"Who?" Lan Xihe asked.
"Ye Tianxin," Lu Zhou said.
"Her?"
Lan Xihe recalled the first time he saw that spotless woman in white clothes, white hair, and white dress. "If it was in the past, she would indeed be very suitable."
Lu Zhou said.
"You don't have to worry about her cultivation. She's my disciple. Who would dare to touch her?"
Lan Xihe was stunned.
Lu Zhou continued to speak.
"That's only for later. Whether it's possible or not will depend on your White Tower's performance."
