Red Lotus Great Tang Capital.
Under Lu Zhou's instructions, Meng Changdong led the five of them to meet the current Emperor, Li Yunzheng. They explained the palace's basic rules and the current situation in the Evil Sky Pavilion. The five of them kept a low profile, nodding their heads as they listened.
Due to the Evil Sky Pavilion, Li Yunzheng had long since reserved the Life Nourishment Hall, the side halls, and the backyard for the Evil Sky Pavilion's use.
The Evil Sky Pavilion was not idle as well. They patrolled the city walls every day.
"The four old men discussing below the city wall are the four elders of the Evil Sky Pavilion. They're the first to join the Evil Sky Pavilion," Meng Changdong said.
The five of them looked over at the same time.
They had mastered extraordinary witchcraft and had their own way of distinguishing the aura of others.
"Ten-leaf?"
Meng Changdong said, "Don't underestimate the four elders. They are rare cultivation geniuses. Stepping into the Thousand Realms is just a matter of time. "
Talent determines the upper limit, and hard work makes up for the lower limit. Most people have the qualifications and opportunities to work hard, but they don't have the talent.
Meng Changdong led the group of five past the city wall and arrived near another tower.
"This is the pavilion master's eighth disciple, Zhu Honggong," Meng Changdong introduced.
The five Su brothers looked over at the same time.
"The direct disciple of the pavilion master … His cultivation shouldn't be that simple …"
As soon as Zhu Honggong's voice faded away, a unique sound of energy resonated from ahead. Zhu Honggong summoned his avatar and vanished in a flash.
Although it was only for a moment, Su Mu and the other four recognized it at a glance.
"Hundred Tribulations Insight?"
He was a piece of trash.
Guardian Meng said with a smile, "Everyone, don't underestimate this Hundred Tribulations Insight … This is no ordinary Hundred Tribulations Insight."
Su Mu nodded and said, "Protector Meng, you don't need to explain. We understand. Let's continue forward. "
Guardian Meng nodded.
It was good that you understood.
The group arrived near the palace.
"This is the pavilion master's fourth disciple, Mingshi Yin." Meng Changdong pointed at Mingshi Yin who was leaning against the railing and sleeping with his eyes closed.
This person should be an expert, right?
"Of course." Su Mu waved his hand.
The five of them stepped forward and bowed at the same time. "Greetings …"
Plop.
Mingshi Yin was shocked and fell to the ground.
"Who, who, who?"
"…"
The five of them were taken aback.
No way … How could he fall like that?
The instincts of cultivators allowed them to avoid the mistakes of ordinary people.
Mingshi Yin looked at them and said, "Don't disturb my sleep."
Woof! Woof! Woof! The dog ran over and carried Mingshi Yin in the direction where there was no one around. In just a blink of an eye, they were out of sight.
Meng Changdong was used to it. He smiled and said, "Everyone, Mister Fourth is like this. You'll get used to it. I can confidently tell you that Mister Fourth is the Pavilion Master's favorite disciple. "
Su Mu pursed his lips.
The disciple he was most proud of was like this? What about the rest of them? How trashy.
"Understood." The five of them nodded expressionlessly.
The group continued forward.
Arriving outside a courtyard, the melodious sound of a zither and laughter could be heard coming from inside.
"Halt, everyone. Inside are the pavilion master's ninth disciple, Ci Yuan 'er, and tenth disciple, Conch," Meng Changdong said.
Since he couldn't see it, he could only judge from the melody.
Su Mu nodded slightly. She had some foundation. Being proficient in music was also a specialty, but it was far from enough.
"Hundred Tribulations Insight?"
"Exactly."
Alright …
Meng Changdong continued to say, "Although their cultivation bases are weak, they're young. They're the most talented cultivators I've ever seen. Also, it's best not to provoke them. "
The five of them nodded.
After leaving the courtyard, they made their way to the eastern city wall.
They looked up.
The green-robed swordsman on the left carried a sword and stood in the wind. The swordsman on the right had his hands on his back and a saber at his waist.
Su Mu was slightly taken aback. He was the first to speak, "The air of an elite."
The other four chimed in, "The air of an elite."
Meng Changdong smiled.
"You have a good eye. These two are the Pavilion Master's First and Second Disciples. The First Mister on the right, Sheng Zhenghai, has perfected his saber skills, and the Great Dark Heaven Memorial is invincible. As far as I know, he's never been defeated. The Second Mister on the left, Yu Shangrong, has reached the peak of swordsmanship. He's comprehended the Son of Heaven's Sword many years ago, and he's even mastered a higher sword path. He's never been defeated. "
Meng Changdong was exaggerating.
Su Mu could not help but ask, "What if the two of them fight?"
"That's great!"
Meng Changdong gave him a thumbs up. "Mister First and Mister Second have always liked to learn from each other. Up until now, they've exchanged blows, but there's no clear winner."
"…"
The five of them instinctively shook their heads.
Their first thought was that it was too fake.
As long as one wanted to know who was stronger, there was no reason that the victor could not be determined.
Su Muke said, "Guardian Meng, is it convenient for you to tell me their cultivation levels?"
"Mister First, Thousand Worlds … I'm not sure how many Birth Charts he has. Mister Second, like Mister Eighth, is also a Hundred Tribulations Insight cultivator. However, his Hundred Tribulations Insight is very powerful." Meng Changdong was very reserved when he introduced Lu Sheng's cultivation base. This involved personal privacy, so he couldn't speak carelessly.
All Meng Changdong had to do was tell them that the Evil Sky Pavilion was special and that they should not judge it with common sense.
However …
When Su Mu heard Hundred Tribulations Insight, he was speechless again.
Since when was a Hundred Tribulations Insight worth showing off?
As far as he knew, there was only a thousand worlds.
The quintet felt like they had been cheated.
But on second thought, if the disciples weren't strong, so be it. In any case, they weren't hugging their thighs but the pavilion master's, so it didn't matter.
"Mister Fifth and Mister Sixth are staying in the Evil Sky Pavilion, not Great Tang. Mister Third and Lu Wu have gone to an unknown place and won't be back for some time, "Meng Changdong said.
When Su Mu heard this, an expression of shock appeared on his face. "Lu Wu?"
"That's right. Lu Wu has been subdued by Mister Third," Meng Changdong said.
"…"
'Good heavens, finally, an expert!'
Someone who could subdue Lu Wu had to be a Perfected One at the very least.
The quintet immediately became excited and stood ramrod straight.
"So, Mister Third is the Evil Sky Pavilion's most powerful disciple?" Su Mu asked.
"Not exactly."
Meng Changdong shook his head and said, "In terms of strength, it's Mister First and Mister Second. In terms of reliability, it's Mister Fourth. In terms of …"
"Wait."
These were all introduced before. The quintet showed no interest and asked, "How did Mister Third subdue Lu Wu, then?"
"The pavilion master came personally," Meng Changdong replied.
"…"
Meng Changdong did not know much about the unknown lands. All he knew was that Lu Zhou had gone to the unknown lands and brought Lu Wu back. In truth, Lu Zhou was the one who brought Lu Wu back.
"Alright."
Su Mu nodded.
Meng Changdong said, "Apart from the ten misters, the Evil Sky Pavilion's left and right emissaries are handling the aftermath in Jiangbei Province."
"Dealing with the aftermath?"
"The Black Lotus Emperor, Mu'erte, colluded with the ferocious beasts and launched a war against Great Tang, causing the people of Great Tang to be unable to make a living. Left Emissary Yan and Right Emissary Lu lamented the people's livelihood, so they went there to help rebuild. " Meng Changdong said, "The Left and Right Emissaries are also people I admire. Given their status, why would they need to do such things?"
The five of them nodded at the same time. This was something that they sincerely admired.
Cultivators usually wouldn't get involved in the affairs of ordinary people.
Even if war broke out, cultivators would still fight against cultivators.
Since the development of human society, it had its own set of operating rules. If those in high positions had no restrictions, and one day, those in high positions would be unhappy and destroy the world, how could human society continue?
"Guardian Shen and Guardian Li are staying at the Evil Sky Pavilion. If you have the time, I'll bring you to the Evil Sky Pavilion," Meng Changdong said.
"Thank you." X5.
"By the way … Miss Zhao Hongfu is the one who constructed the Evil Sky Pavilion's runic passageway. She's currently in the Evil Sky Pavilion as well. She's discussing the large-scale runic passageway with Miss Ye," Meng Changdong said.
The five of them nodded.
Meng Changdong said,
"The Pavilion Master said that Mister Seventh will take care of your affairs from now on. You've met him before. "
"It's him?" X5.
"Don't underestimate him … He once helped Mister First unify the golden lotus domain and conquer the lands. He's a … psychological person," Meng Changdong said.
Something stirred in the five of them.
"But what's his cultivation base?"
"I think he's at the Nine-leaf stage," Meng Changdong guessed.
"…"
The five of them had an unnatural expression on their faces.
Even if one were to boast about something, it would still be useless if one did not have a strong enough fist.
Sun Mu seemed to have recalled Mingshi Yin's words. He asked, "May I ask, what's the cultivation base of the Ninth Temple's Master?"
"Sikong Beichen?"
"Yes, that's his name."
"Ten-leaf … However, he might've already entered the Thousand Realms. After all, he's a Ten-leaf cultivator since a long time ago. With the Ninth Temple's strength, it should've been able to locate the Birth Chart Heart," Meng Changdong said honestly.
Sun Mu was reluctant to give up. He asked, "What about the Sect Masters of the Twelve Sects of Cloud Mountain?"
"They should be around the same level as Senior Sikong."
'After all this time, they're all trash?'
Meng Changdong caught on to this and said, "Lastly, I have a word of advice for all of you."
"Don't judge the Evil Sky Pavilion with common sense." Xia Changqiu appeared in everyone's sight.
"Monastery Master Xia?"
