Mingshi Yin was puzzled.
After their master gave the order, the Evil Sky Pavilion's disciples would not go out.
After the barrier between the Taixu Academy and the Hengqu Branch was destroyed, the major sects began to recuperate.
Why would anyone come to the Evil Sky Pavilion at this time?
"Little Junior Sister, practice by yourself. I have something to attend to," Mingshi Yin said.
"Oh."
Conch obediently turned around and left.
Mingshi Yin looked at the female disciple and said, "I'll go take a look."
…
Mingshi Yin, who was feeling bored, hastily leaped up the mountain.
When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he saw a eunuch dressed in palace attire standing outside the barrier.
The eunuch was the Empress Dowager's personal eunuch, Li Yunzhao.
"Mister Fourth, long time no see. Greetings," Li Yun greeted.
"It's you?"
Mingshi Yin asked in confusion, "You're quite bold. How dare you come to the Evil Sky Pavilion?"
A troubled expression appeared on Li Yunzhao's face. He sighed and said, "I didn't want to come as well. Alas, we're serving different masters. I had no choice but to come."
"Just spit it out. I don't have time to waste with you," Mingshi Yin said.
Li Yunzhao said,
"May I see the Pavilion Master?"
"I won't see him."
"…"
Li Yunzhao continued licking his lips and said, "I have something very important to attend to. I can only tell you in front of the pavilion master …"
Seeing that he didn't get to the point.
Mingshi Yin turned around and stepped into the barrier.
She dilly-dallied and could not be bothered with him.
"Don't, don't, don't …" Li Yunzhao hastily said, "The Retired Emperor wishes to meet the pavilion master."
Retired Emperor?
Didn't this old man die a long time ago?
He suddenly turned around and moved as though he was flying. Energy surged out of his body as he charged at Li Yunzhao.
Bang, bang, bang!
Li Yunzhao did not expect Mingshi Yin to suddenly attack. He raised his hand, but it was not considered a block. A golden palm seal bloomed on his palm as he blocked Mingshi Yin's series of attacks. As he retreated, he said, "You've misunderstood, Mister Fourth! The Retired Emperor has always been alive. The announcement of his death was a helpless move by the palace … "
Bang!
Both of their palms collided, and both of them took three steps back.
Li Yunzhao was inwardly shocked. He was an elite of the imperial palace, after all. He was one of the best Seven-leaf cultivators by the Empress Dowager's side.
He was forced to take three steps back.
Mingshi Yin steadied himself and thought to himself, 'This damn eunuch is powerful.'
"Is Emperor Yong Shou still alive?"
"Exactly." Li Yunzhao hastily explained, "In the early years, your master and the Retired Emperor had a close personal relationship. Now that he's advanced in age, he wishes to meet you before his death."
"My master is not free."
That was the truth.
Li Yunzhao's expression froze for a moment before he said, "The Retired Emperor said that if there's nothing else, Pavilion Master, he'll visit you personally."
Mingshi Yin was stunned.
"I've already told you that my master isn't free. Do you not understand human language?"
Li Yunzhao felt helpless as well. He looked to his left and right. When he saw no one else around, he beckoned Mingshi Yin over.
Mingshi Yin understood her intentions and walked up to her.
Li Yunzhao whispered into Mingshi Yin's ear. Mingshi Yin's expression changed slightly.
"Really?" Mingshi Yin was incredulous.
"Of course." Li Yunzhao bowed and said, "I'm one of the Empress Dowager's people. I'm only saying this out of consideration for our past relationship. Please pretend you didn't hear me, Mister Fourth."
"You're a wise man," Mingshi Yin said.
"The message has been delivered, the rest has nothing to do with our family. Mister Fourth, I have a request, "Li Yunzhao said.
"What for?"
"Mister Fourth, please strike me. I'll be able to explain myself when I return," Li Yunzhao said.
Mingshi Yin scratched his head.
"How can I do that? I'm just like my master. I'm a very reasonable person. I can't beat people up for no reason."
"I hope that you'll make a move, Mister Fourth. Since the Retired Emperor is personally involved, we can only resort to this," Li Yunzhao said earnestly.
"No no no …"
Mingshi Yin waved his hands. "I'm not that kind of person. I can't help you with this. If my friend with the surname Ri was here, maybe it would work. "
Li Yunzhao wore a regretful expression on his face. He bowed and said, "Fine. Mister Fourth is truly a gentleman. There's no need for Friend Ri. It's useless for him to make a move. Mister Fourth, you're a member of the Evil Sky Pavilion, after all. You should draw a clear line between you and such despicable people. That's all I have to say. I'll take my leave now. "
"Wait."
Li Yunzhao stopped moving. He had just turned around, puzzled.
Mingshi Yin threw a punch at Yu Shangrong.
Bang!
The punch was too close. It was within arm's reach.
Li Yunzhao reeled back and rolled on the ground.
"Ouch, my face."
"I suddenly feel like I should help … It doesn't hurt, does it?" Mingshi Yin retracted his fist.
Li Yunzhao did not expect Mingshi Yin to make a move just like that. Why did he have to be so heavy-handed?
Mingshi Yin no longer looked at him. He hummed a tune as he flew back to the Evil Sky Pavilion.
…
When he returned to the Evil Sky Pavilion, he began to worry.
Great Yan's Emperor, Yong Shou, Liu Ge, was going to visit the Evil Sky Pavilion. Coincidentally, the Nether Sect was going to attack the Imperial family. What good could it be?
After mulling over it for a moment, Mingshi Yin decided to ask his master.
After all, he was the person with the highest status in Great Yan. He was friends with his master in the past.
He looked around to make sure no one was around before he walked toward the hidden chamber. Shortly after, he arrived before the hidden chamber, kneeled, and said, "Greetings, master."
There was no reply from the hidden chamber.
Mingshi Yin was slightly worried. He said again, "Greetings, master."
This time, he raised his voice.
He had learned from his mistakes. He merely lay on the ground obediently and waited for a reply. He did not dare to go near the hidden chamber's door.
There was still no reply from the hidden chamber.
Mingshi Yin sighed and shook his head. 'I'll think of something on my own.
Control yourself. Don't crawl into a crack in the wall. '
He hastily turned around and left.
Inside the hidden chamber, Lu Zhou's consciousness was in a state of chaos. After reprimanding Zhu Honggong, he immersed himself in his thoughts again and sealed his senses. Naturally, he could not hear Mingshi Yin's voice.
Three days passed in just a blink of an eye.
In the morning. The sun rose in the east of the Evil Sky Pavilion.
A small gray flying chariot departed from the Divine Capital and flew toward the Evil Sky Pavilion.
On the flying chariot.
Two of the Imperial guard's eight great generals, Gu Yiran and Su Sheng, stood respectfully behind Emperor Yong Shou.
The two of them were Emperor Yong Shou's former subordinates. When they saw Liu Ge, who was still alive, they could not calm down for a long time.
"Are you afraid?" Liu Ge glanced at the two of them.
The two of them bowed. "Are you afraid?"
Liu Ge looked at the rising sun in the east. The flying chariot passed through the clouds and advanced through the sea of clouds.
"Back then, the two of you followed me to conquer the world, and all races submitted to you. Many years have passed, and all of you … have grown old. "Liu Ge sighed.
Gu Yiran and Su Sheng's hair had turned white as well.
Time waited for no man.
"Birth, old age, sickness, and death are the truths of the world," Saint Su said.
Looking at his former subordinates, Liu Ge nodded slightly and said, "It's been hard on you to assist Shang 'er all these years."
"These are my duties. As long as I can protect Great Yan, I'm willing to climb a mountain of swords and dive into a sea of flames," Su Sheng said.
Liu Ge scrutinized the two of them for a moment.
Then he suddenly asked,
"Have the two of you never thought of severing your lotuses and attempting the Nine-leaf stage?"
As soon as he said this, the two of them knelt down at the same time, their faces covered in sweat.
To be able to ask about the matter of severing one's Lotus, it was clear that Liu Ge had already learned a lot about the outside world.
"This subject has always been loyal and devoted. The sun and moon can bear witness."
"The Nether Sect is wreaking havoc in Great Yan's nine provinces. How can I turn a blind eye to it?"
How could they dare to defy the decree of the late Emperor?
Liu Ge nodded in satisfaction and said, "Stand up and talk."
The two of them rose to their feet.
"Initially, I wanted to meet Shang 'er … Since he's cultivating in seclusion, I'll make the decision and order the two of you to come with me."
He had abdicated, after all. The Imperial guard reported directly to the current Emperor.
Su Sheng said, "Your Majesty, please give us your orders."
"Alright."
Liu Ge said calmly, "To the Evil Sky Pavilion."
"…" Su Sheng and Gu Yiran were shocked. An ominous feeling rose in their hearts. In just a few breaths, their backs were already drenched in cold sweat.
Midday.
The flying chariot landed slowly at the foot of Golden Court Mountain.
"Your … Your Majesty, we're here." Su Sheng looked up at Golden Court Mountain and gulped.
"Are you nervous?" Liu Ge noticed that the two generals did not seem to be in a good mood.
In truth, Gu Yiran and Su Sheng were feeling slightly regretful. They did not expect the late Emperor to come to Golden Court Mountain's Evil Sky Pavilion. This was the place that they could not afford to offend in the current cultivation world!
However, since they had pledged their loyalty and sworn oaths, they had no choice but to come.
"I'm not nervous. I'm just slightly worried."
"There's no need to worry … I'm old friends with Ji Tiandao. I'm only here to catch up," Liu Ge said.
The guards leaped off the flying chariot as well.
They carried a few boxes to the barrier.
At this moment, a figure floated down from the mountainside.
He looked down from the air and said, "Are you the Yong Shou Emperor?"
The Yong Shou Emperor, Liu Ge, looked up at the figure in the air and said, "You know me?"
"It's just a wild guess. I've been waiting for you for a long time. I'm not used to kneeling. You don't mind, do you? "
"It's fine," Liu Ge said.
"My master has been cultivating in seclusion for three months. I'm afraid he won't have time to meet you, Your Majesty," Mingshi Yin said.
