Jiang Aijian did not like to put on airs. Most of the time, he was forced to do so.
It was the same this time as well.
After putting on airs, Jiang Aijian immediately regretted it. Why did he have to be so obnoxious and show off? This was not his style at all. The great villain's eyes were like torches. He had clearly noticed something was amiss. Even if he did not interfere, things would have come to this.
Moreover, his opponent was the greatest villain under the heavens. There were three lesser villains as well. Any one of them could easily kill him.
Jiang Aijian chuckled as he walked up to Lu Zhou. He bowed slightly and licked his lips as he said, "Old senior … My name is Jiang Aijian, Jiang Aijian of the rivers, lakes, and seas."
"You're really good at scheming." Lu Zhou sat before the stone table and stared at Jiang Aijian.
"Old senior … We're working together. Isn't the outcome beneficial for both of us? "Jiang Aijian said.
"I'm afraid it's not enough."
When Lu Zhou returned to Skylark Pagoda, he did some calculations. To capture Yunsan, he had used three Binding Cage Cards. Although they were in stock, the price of the item cards had increased. Yunsan's cultivation base was only in the Divine Court realm. Capturing him would not reward him with merit points. With the increasing difficulty of accumulating merit points, it would be a huge loss for him.
Jiang Aijian chuckled dryly and said, "You can't blame me for what happened today. If there's anyone to blame, it's your seventh disciple, Si Wuya. He's the mastermind behind all this. "
"All I know is that you're the one who invited me," Lu Zhou said.
Jiang Aijian. "???"
'Fine, I've been blackmailed.'
Jiang Aijian glanced at the trembling Hua Yuexing. An idea came to him as he said, "There's something I can do to make you feel better, old senior."
"Speak."
Jiang Aijian stood up.
He walked up to Hua Yuexing and said, "Hua Yuexing … I planned to bring you out of the palace and give you your freedom. However, I'll show you the way. "
"Huh?"
"Join the Evil Sky Pavilion," Jiang Aijian said.
Mingshi Yin said disapprovingly, "It's not that I'm looking down on her, but with her skills … She might be able to do odd jobs in the Evil Sky Pavilion. Even Zhou Jifeng is better than her. "
Hua Yuexing felt indignant when she heard that. She had been cultivating in the Luo Sect since she was young. She was not fond of swordsmanship, saber techniques, or fist techniques … but she was infatuated with archery. As a result, he became the Luo Sect's Godly Archer. After leaving the Luo Sect, he joined the palace and worked for it until now. As time went by, he gained some fame and became one of the three Godly Archers of the Divine Capital. However, due to her young age, she did not have much battle experience, so she was ranked third.
"Odd jobs? I can't accept this … "Hua Yuexing said.
"So what if you're not convinced? You want to spar with me? Come, my subordinates don't discriminate between men and women. Don't blame me if you cry. "Mingshi Yin raised his hand. The Separation Hook and Scabbard spun in his palm.
Upon seeing the Heaven-grade weapon, Hua Yuexing took a step back.
She had stage fright and was a little afraid …
Once bitten, twice shy. She had witnessed Mingshi Yin's strength before.
Jiang Aijian said,
"Don't underestimate her … Hua Yuexing is very talented in archery. It's a pity I didn't recognize him clearly. " He turned to look at Hua Yuexing and said, "If you want to join the Evil Sky Pavilion, show them what you're capable of."
"I'm not joining the Evil Sky Pavilion," Hua Yuexing refused without hesitation.
"Uh … Why?"
"I'd rather return to the palace and be punished than join the Fiend Path."
Jiang Aijian sighed and shook his head. He suddenly spoke like an older brother, "Trust me … The conflicts in the palace are much more complicated than the outside world. Moreover, Lady Jade's witchcraft spell has been nullified. Mo Li is very dangerous. Don't tell me … you're planning to return to the Luo Sect? "
Hua Yuexing regarded Jiang Aijian with a complicated gaze. She had a feeling that he knew everything. She asked, "Who are you?"
"Who I am isn't important …" Jiang Aijian paced with his hands on his back. He was halfway through his paces when Mingshi Yin kicked him.
"Cut the crap. You're just a prince … Get to the point. Stop wasting time."
"…"
Jiang Aijian rubbed his buttocks and said, "I'm a prince, after all. Give me some face … Alright, I'll get it done right away."
"You're … a prince?" Hua Yuexing's eyes widened.
"… Keep a low profile."
Jiang Aijian pulled her to the side and muttered something to her.
Perhaps, it was because Hua Yuexing was young, she nodded and walked toward Lu Zhou after hearing his words.
"I, Hua Yuexing, am willing to join the Evil Sky Pavilion. Please accept me, old senior," Hua Yuexing said respectfully.
Lu Zhou looked at Hua Yuexing. He rose to his feet and said, "You're not qualified."
Hua Yuexing. "…"
She raised her left hand. A bow and arrow formed from energy appeared in her right palm.
An energy arrow appeared between the index and middle fingers of his left hand.
Whizz!
She turned around and shot toward the birds perched on the towering trees outside Cloud Crane Pagoda.
Whoosh!
The arrow sailed through the air and struck the birds with unerring accuracy before it fell into the forest.
Mingshi Yin, Duanmu Sheng, and Little Yuan 'er were inwardly shocked by this.
This was their first time witnessing someone condensing energy with their bare hands without the need of a weapon.
Lu Zhou glanced at her and said, "Too weak."
Hua Yuexing was indignant. She bowed and said, "Please lend me your weapon."
Without a weapon, the power of condensing energy was slightly weaker.
Lu Zhou waved his hand. The Sky Bow appeared on the stone table.
Hua Yuexing picked up the Sky Bow and walked to the edge of Skylark Pagoda to search for her target.
When she picked up the bow and arrow, her gaze was determined and her expression was calm. Her confidence had returned.
This time, she drew the bowstring with her right hand.
She condensed her Qi into energy.
A sharper, thinner, and clearer energy was nocked on the Sky Bow.
She adjusted her breathing.
As a Godly Archer, not only did she have to be accurate, but she also had good eyesight.
Everything she saw was the bull's eye.
She loosened her grip.
Whoosh!
The first arrow flew toward the forest.
The arrow vibrated loudly, startling dozens of birds in the forest.
Hua Yuexing drew her bow again. Dozens of energy arrows hit the birds.
"Nice shot!" Jiang Aijian could not help but applaud.
Clap! Clap!
Skylark Pagoda was too quiet. His applause was monotonous, making him feel awkward.
Mingshi Yin, Duanmu Sheng, and Little Yuan 'er looked at Hua Yuexing as though they were looking at a fool.
"Let's be honest. That was a good shot," Jiang Aijian said.
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "True archery requires experience on the battlefield … You're talented, but you're not sharp enough. You're still far from joining the Evil Sky Pavilion … "
Lu Zhou waved his hand and retrieved the Sky Bow.
At the same time, he flew toward them on Whitzard.
Little Yuan 'er waved her hand and leaped onto the Sky Bow.
She leaped up lightly.
Little Yuan 'er understood Lu Zhou's intention and ran over.
Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng shook their heads helplessly. It seemed like they would have to fly on their own again.
Bai Ze stepped into the air and flew towards Anyang.
Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng followed closely behind it.
Hua Yuexing was stunned. For a time, she did not know what to do.
You have nowhere else to go … Remember what I said. The palace won't have a place for you, the Luo Sect won't have a place for you, and the Noble Path won't have a place for you as well … The Evil Sky Pavilion is the only place for you. "
"Oh."
Hua Yuexing gave chase in the air.
She was an archer to begin with. She was not weak in terms of speed.
Perhaps, she was eager to prove herself, she gave chase at once.
Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng turned to look at her.
Mingshi Yin stopped and said, "My master has said that you're not qualified to join the Evil Sky Pavilion …"
"I want to prove that I am," Hua Yuexing said.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?" Mingshi Yin threatened.
Hua Yuexing was startled. She did not dare to get too close. She only followed from afar.
Meanwhile.
Whitzard was fast. In just a blink of an eye, it had left Mingshi Yin and the others behind.
Lu Zhou stood on Whitzard's back and looked down.
"Master, what's that?" Little Yuan 'er pointed at a flying chariot hovering in the air above the forest on the other side of Nine Tune River.
Lu Zhou slowed down on Whitzard.
Little Yuan 'er's eyes were sharp. She said, "That's the flying chariot that gave me a gift at Skylark Pagoda!"
'Isn't that Old Seventh's flying chariot, Si Wuya's?'
"Is Seventh Senior Brother here?" Little Yuan 'er asked curiously.
Lu Zhou remembered everything that had happened in the past two days. He said in a deep voice, "Rascal."
Whitzard turned around and flew toward Nine Tune River.
Bathed in Auspicious Qi, Whitzard shot through the air at a speed of light.
Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng saw this from afar and stopped to watch.
Hua Yuexing did the same.
Bai Ze had always been too ostentatious. Just as he was about to get close,
When it was about to get close, the cultivators on the flying chariot were scared out of their wits.
"No! The old senior has discovered us! "
"Run!"
The flying chariot turned around at once.
It was a pity …
Lu Zhou shouted softly, "Trying to run?"
With a flip of his hand, a Thunderblast Card appeared in his hand.
His target was the flying chariot!
A vortex appeared and swept toward the flying chariot.
Above the flying chariot, a bolt of lightning struck from the nine heavens!
Rumble!
The lightning bolts were wrapped in energy as they struck the flying chariot.
The flying chariot stopped moving. Creak! Creak!
The flying chariot stopped moving. Creak! Creak! It was on the verge of collapse!
Crack!
The flying chariot shattered into pieces and fell from the sky.
Hua Yuexing was stunned when she saw this.
She could understand Lu Zhou's method of capturing the Godly Thief Yunsan. Moreover, she did not see with her own eyes if the Binding Cage Technique had captured Yunsan. On the other hand, the Thunderblast Card had the power to shock the heavens and the earth.
Moreover, Lu Zhou had attacked from afar.
Compared to that, her move of shooting out several arrows seemed very petty.
Mingshi Yin said with a sigh of admiration, "Who can stop master when he's angry? Seventh Junior Brother is at a disadvantage! "
Duanmu Sheng crossed his arms and said, "If Seventh Junior Brother were on the flying chariot, I don't think he'd be able to escape."
With Whitzard around, Si Wuya would not be able to escape even if he had an extra pair of wings. Under such circumstances, Si Wuya might not even have as much room to maneuver as Yunsan.
"Old Seventh has gone too far this time … How dare he observe Cloudcrane Pagoda from here?"
Mingshi Yin looked as though he was watching a show.
Whitzard flew over.
Many cultivators leaped out of the flying chariot when it fell.
The low-ranked cultivators could only conjure simple energy shields as they descended.
Those in the Brahman Sea realm and above could fly and descend slowly.
"Rascal, what are you waiting for?!" Lu Zhou's voice resounded in the surroundings.
He did not earn any merit points from this trip to Cloudcrane Pagoda. However, it would not be a loss if he could capture Old Seventh.
However …
The cultivators trembled in fear as they fled in all directions.
The sect master had repeatedly reminded them to stay away from Ji Tiandao and not to show any signs of resistance.
This had become an iron law in the Darknet Sect.
They only had one thought in their minds right now, and that was to run!
Run for their lives!
Nobody responded to Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou swept his gaze across the cultivators.
None of them were in the Divine Court realm or above.
Ever since Si Wuya, Old Seventh, obtained the Peacock Plume and cultivated the complete Great Compassion Poem, he must have entered the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm a long time ago.
Otherwise, a mere Divine Court realm cultivator would not have been able to assume the position of sect master.
This meant that Si Wuya was not among the group of cultivators.
"Yuan 'er."
"Alright."
Little Yuan 'er could no longer hold herself back.
She leaped off Whitzard's back.
The Nirvana Sash danced in the air as it swept forward like a wolf among a flock of sheep.
The cultivators who could not escape in time were trapped by the Nirvana Sash one after another.
Some of them tried to resist, but Little Yuan 'er simply knocked them out.
The terror of a heaven-grade weapon was on full display.
Little Yuan 'er loved the feeling of bullying the weak. Now that she had her master's permission, she let loose and played with them.
However, she did not kill them.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded in satisfaction.
'This child is worth teaching.'
If this had happened in the past, these people would not have been able to keep their lives.
A moment later, Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng flew over.
When Mingshi Yin saw this, he inhaled deeply and said, "Third Senior Brother … Do you think Little Junior Sister will torture us in the future?"
Duanmu Sheng remembered how Little Yuan 'er first obtained the Nirvana Sash. He scratched his head and said, "I don't think so … Little Junior Sister has grown up."
"I hope so."
At this moment, the ground was filled with wails.
Most of the cultivators had been caught by Little Yuan 'er and thrown into a pile. They were trapped by the Nirvana Sash and could not move.
Lu Zhou descended slowly.
He patted Whitzard's fur lightly.
Whitzard made a deep sound and waited where it was.
"Master, should I beat them up? I'll make sure they reveal Seventh Senior Brother's whereabouts!" Little Yuan 'er asked.
Lu Zhou waved his hand, signaling for her to stand down.
Little Yuan 'er retreated to the side.
Lu Zhou placed his hands on his back and said, "I'll only ask you once. If you give a wrong answer, you'll have to bear the consequences."
The cultivators shuddered.
They were facing the greatest villain under the heavens. He was also their sect master's master.
Their sect master had told them to cooperate obediently and not to show any signs of resistance.
"Where's Si Wuya now?"
"Old … old senior … We … We're only following orders. Our sect master has always been elusive … We really … don't know!"
"Why are you hiding here?"
"Our sect master has ordered us to observe the situation after delivering the gifts to Miss Ninth."
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and pondered.
In that case, it seemed like he was the mastermind behind Yunsan's incident.
In that case, what was Si Wuya's true objective?
Why did he do this?
Mingshi Yin bowed and said, "Master, Old Seventh has crossed the line this time! How dare he plot against us and use the Evil Sky Pavilion? I'm willing to stay behind and track Old Seventh down. I swear I'll capture him! "
"I'm afraid you're no match for Old Seventh," Lu Zhou said with his hands on his back.
It was not just a matter of cultivation base. In terms of scheming, Mingshi Yin was only good at petty tricks.
