"Against a Nine-leaf cultivator?" Lu Zhou was puzzled.
Zhou Wenliang continued to say, "The Crown Prince, Liu Zhi, sent the armor here. He said that a Nine-leaf cultivator can activate its unique power. In any case, I don't believe it. Senior Ji, please look into it! "
After saying that, he looked around again.
He thought to himself, 'There are so many villains in the Evil Sky Pavilion, but I don't see any of them. Why are there only two villains?'
However, he could only think about it in his heart. How could he dare to say it out loud?
"Do I need you to tell me if it's clear or not? If you like to teach others how to do things, why don't you let Lin Xin come and apologize himself? "Pan Zhong mocked.
Zhou Wenliang revealed a troubled expression and said,
"Even the Sect Master can't speak in front of the Ancestral Master, let alone us."
Wang Jianrang, who was kneeling at the back, hurriedly said, "Senior Ji, please investigate this. The three of us are sincerely asking for forgiveness. That old fart, Lin Xin, is trying to force the Taixu Academy to a dead end … We're elders of the Taixu Academy, after all. How can we watch the sect walk down the path of destruction? “
Lu Zhou remained silent.
Instead, he got up, walked down the stairs, and stopped in front of Zhou Wenliang. His gaze fell on the parcel in front of him.
He examined the armor again.
With a flip of his palm, the armor floated into the air.
It was covered with fine red lines, and every detail was meticulously carved.
Logically speaking, Zhou Jifeng shouldn't be able to understand the patterns on the coffin, but he had listened to the instructions and carefully copied the patterns on the coffin.
There was a faint impression in his mind.
As soon as he saw the armor, he immediately had an impression of it. He said in surprise, "It's so similar to the one on the coffin?"
Lu Zhou stroked his beard as he studied them.
Zhou Wenliang looked up and said, "The Crown Prince, Liu Zhi, said that the armor's unique power will be triggered if it encounters a Nine-leaf cultivator. This despicable trick can only fool children. Liu Zhi wants to use the Taixu Academy to restrain the Evil Sky Pavilion. He purposely tossed out the so-called armor to create conflict between the two sides. "
Lu Zhou looked at Zhou Wenliang and asked, "Why do you say that?"
"It doesn't make sense. If there's a way to deal with a Nine-leaf cultivator, the Crown Prince would have used it when the seven great sects attacked you. Why hide it and let the other sects end up like this? "Zhou Wenliang said.
Lu Zhou did not refute him. After all, he had a point.
However, Zhou Wenliang did so because he knew about the effects of the armor. Moreover, before the ambush, nobody believed in the existence of a Nine-leaf cultivator. If Lin Xin wore it, he would have no problem protecting himself against those below the Eight-leaf stage. At that time, they would have to mobilize a Nine-leaf cultivator to kill him.
From this perspective, it made sense for Liu Zhi to give Lin Xin the armor.
"Senior Ji, please understand." Zhou Wenliang raised his voice.
"A wise man submits to circumstances …"
Lu Zhou turned around and paced with his hands on his back. "Put this on."
"Ah?"
Zhou Wenliang was stunned. He didn't know what that meant.
Without waiting for Lu Zhou's reply, Pan Zhong urged, "Just put it on. What's with the nonsense?"
"Yes yes yes …"
Zhou Wenliang didn't dare to be negligent and quickly put on the heavy armor.
After putting it on, he continued to lie on the ground, not daring to move.
Lu Zhou studied it for a moment.
The patterns on it were basically the same as those on the coffin.
"Get up," Lu Zhou said indifferently.
Zhou Wenliang did as he was told and stood up, trembling with fear.
He had just risen to his feet when he saw Lu Zhou raising his wizened palm.
The palm seemed to have grown in size. There was a flash of afterimages as a shining golden palm seal shot out of Lu Zhou's palm.
"Ahh!"
Zhou Wenliang did not expect Lu Zhou to suddenly attack him.
He could not react in time.
Bam!
The palm print landed on his chest.
Zhou Wenliang felt a huge impact. His body flew back, and his back arched.
Wang Jianrang and Zhang Gong frowned as they looked at Zhou Wenliang who was sent flying.
The palm seal did not vanish immediately. It stuck close to Zhou Wenliang and flew out of the hall.
Thud!
When the power dissipated, Zhou Wenliang fell to the ground on his back.
He felt as though his body had fallen apart. He was in great pain.
He did not trigger the so-called 'special power'.
Wang Jianrang was the first to react after being struck by the palm. He said loudly, "Nice … This thing is a fake!"
Zhang Gong chimed in, "Lin Xin is despicable.
"Lin Xin is really too despicable, to actually disregard the safety of the entire academy. He almost fell for Liu Zhi's trick. "
Lu Zhou's palm seal came from a Two-leaf Nascent Divinity. There was no Nine-leaf Nascent Divinity.
'There's nothing I can do as well.
You want me to unleash a Nine-leaf palm technique, but I can't.
Whether it's strong or weak, it's still a Two-leaf Nascent Divinity. '
Pan Zhong couldn't help but interrupt, "Pavilion Master's control of palm seals has really reached the point of perfection."
Zhou Jifeng. "???"
Zhou Wenliang crawled to his feet with great difficulty. He stood outside the hall and bowed at Lu Zhou from afar as he said, "Senior Ji's palm seal is truly powerful … This armor is truly useless."
He pressed a hand to his chest and endured the pain as he walked into the hall.
Lu Zhou studied the armor and Formation veins on his body again.
They did not seem to be triggered at all.
In Lu Zhou's opinion, the armor might be real, just like the coffin.
'Does it really require a Nine-leaf cultivator to trigger it?'
Lu Zhou was still puzzled when a louder voice rang from outside the great hall.
"Master, your palm print is really too dazzling. Your disciple saw it clearly from afar."
Zhu Honggong walked into the great hall with a bow.
"Mister Eighth." Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng greeted him at the same time.
Wen Liang, Gongjian, and the others turned around. They saw the fat and big-eared Zhu Honggong walking in with a bow. They were puzzled. 'Is this the Evil Sky Pavilion's Mister Eighth, Zhu Honggong?'
That's it?
Evil King?
When Zhu Honggong walked past the trio, the fawning smile on his face vanished. When he walked past them, it returned.
The change in expression had reached the pinnacle.
Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng were completely convinced. "…"
Pan Zhong recalled his flattery just now. Compared to Mister Eighth, it was like the difference between heaven and earth.
"What is it?" Lu Zhou looked at Zhu Honggong.
Zhu Honggong said, "Fourth Senior Brother asked me to tell you that the Taixu Academy has long been tied to the Imperial family."
Aren't they all in the Evil Sky Pavilion?
Was there a need to bring a message like this?
When Zhou Wenliang heard that, he hurriedly knelt down and said, "I beg Senior Ji to investigate clearly. That was all that old fellow Lin Xin's idea alone. It has nothing to do with the three of us."
Lu Zhou looked at his three companions.
His expression was calm. It was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
"I've sensed your sincerity. Leave your armor behind."
Zhou Wenliang was overjoyed. He hastily removed his armor. The three of them bowed and thanked Lu Zhou. "Thank you, Senior Ji."
"Ding! Worshipped by 3 individuals. Reward: 3 merit points."
"However …"
"Huh?"
They had just relaxed, but they immediately tensed up again.
"If Lin Xin is the one behind this, I'll spare the three of you. Take them away. "
Lu Zhou waved his hand.
Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng bowed in unison. "Understood."
"Senior Ji, you're wise! Senior Ji, I'm telling the truth. Senior Ji … "
When they were dragged out, Zhou Wenliang thought to himself, 'Did I say anything wrong? What's going on? '
The three of them were brought to the warehouse in the north pavilion.
They could not even see the sun.
Inside the warehouse.
Wang Jianrang asked, "Elder Zhou, will your plan work?"
"Don't worry … It'll definitely work."
Zhou Wenliang placed his hands on his back and said, "At the very least, Old Villain Ji didn't do anything to us, right?"
"The problem is, now that it's proven that the armor is fake, how is Lin Xin going to deal with Old Villain Ji?" Wang Jianrang asked.
Zhou Wenliang frowned.
"It doesn't matter if it's real or fake. All we have to do is convince Old Villain Ji that Lin Xin is in cahoots with the Crown Prince. With Lin Xin dead and the sect master, Xiao Shan, in Yu Province, the Taixu Academy will belong to the three of us. Old Villain Ji is a Nine-leaf cultivator, after all. He won't be easy to deal with."
Wang Jianrang nodded. "As expected of you, Big Brother Zhou."
Zhou Wenliang snorted. "Men die for wealth, and birds die for food. How can you catch a tiger cub without entering the tiger's den?"
When Zhou Wenliang heard the words' tiger's den ', he was stunned.
Zhang Gong said in a low voice, "The current Evil Sky Pavilion doesn't seem as terrifying as we imagined."
