Ji Fengxing would not allow Yu Shangrong to make the same mistake. His instincts told him that the old man was not as simple as he seemed.
No matter who it was or which faction they came from, they were not people the Thousand Willow Monastery could handle. The best way to deal with them was to run for their lives.
Ji Fengxing blocked the way and said, "It's an elite. Run!"
How could his cultivation base and speed compare to Lu Zhou and Yu Shangrong?
Lu Zhou looked over and saw Ji Fengxing blocking the person who was flying toward him.
He raised his palm.
He bent his arm and pushed forward.
A five-fingered palm print glittering with golden light pushed forward.
"A Buddhist?! Why is it golden?! "Tian Buji was shocked.
Xia Changqiu was also shocked by the golden palm.
Were they not from the Sky Martial Court, the Flying Star House, or the palace?
Wuwu raised her head to look at the old man. The old man stroked his beard as he looked ahead calmly. The palm print flew away at high speed. If a Nine-leaf cultivator attacked, even an Eight-leaf cultivator like Ji Fengxing would not be able to withstand it. When Yu Shangrong was about to strike, he unleashed his grand technique. His figure blurred.
He moved behind Ji Fengxing and held his Longevity Sword with both hands as a shield. Bam!
Yu Shangrong withstood the palm seal as he retreated. He crashed into Ji Fengxing's back. Both of them reeled back at the same time. The palm seal stuck to the Longevity Sword. They only managed to stabilize themselves after they were several meters away from each other.
Lu Zhou stopped attacking.
He had seen the newcomer's appearance and understood Ji Fengxing's objective.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Ji Fengxing turned around. He was about to speak when Yu Shangrong raised his hand to stop him.
Yu Shangrong looked at the old man hovering in the air. He respectfully sheathed his Longevity Sword and held it behind his back. Then, he fell to one knee and said, "Your disciple, Yu Shangrong, greets master."
Yu Shangrong's expression was the same as usual. There was an incredulous calmness amidst his gentleness. There was a hint of calmness in his smile. Just like his eyes, no matter where he was, when he was, what kind of environment he was in, and what kind of dangerous situation he was in, his expression remained the same.
Xia Changqiu, Tian Buji, and Wuwu were speechless.
Ji Fengxing. "???"
When Lu Zhou made his move, he no longer concealed his identity.
Yu Shangrong's greeting had proven the old man's identity. Ji Fengxing was so shocked that he was rendered speechless.
When he was learning sword and saber techniques from Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai, Ji Fengxing had often heard them praise their master. The two of them had a great difference in their cultivation bases. They had their own opinions, and it was difficult to tell who was better. However, they were surprisingly in agreement when it came to this matter.
No matter how extravagant their praises were, there was only one thing in their minds … this old man was invincible.
Ji Fengxing gulped as he looked at the frail old man. After a brief moment of surprise, a question rose in his mind. 'Is this old man really invincible?'
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded in satisfaction.
They crossed the Endless Ocean and flew for a long time before they finally found Yu Shangrong on the other side.
"Stand up and talk," Lu Zhou said calmly.
Yu Shangrong stood up slowly.
Little Yuan 'er and Conch hovered in the air at the same time. They arrived at their master's side and greeted, "Second Senior Brother."
"Second senior brother."
Yu Shangrong smiled at them. "We meet again, junior sisters."
Lu Zhou said.
"You were able to block my palm so easily. Has your cultivation improved a lot?"
Yu Shangrong nodded.
Lu Zhou looked at the shocked Ji Fengxing who was standing next to Yu Shangrong.
Yu Shangrong understood what Lu Zhou meant. He explained, "I've been stranded in the red lotus domain and stayed overnight in the Thousand Willow Monastery. Although Ji Fengxing's cultivation base is low, he's a man who values friendship."
Lu Zhou understood now.
Ji Fengxing walked forward unsteadily. He bowed at Lu Zhou and said, "G-greetings … O-old senior …"
He was so nervous that he could not speak.
The Thousand Willow Monastery's Xia Changqiu understood the relationship between the two. He felt reverence in his heart as he hastily bowed. "So, it's a friend from afar. The Thousand Willow Monastery welcomes you, senior. "
He had no choice.
This was his fate from the moment he chose to stand with Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai.
The disciples bowed.
Lu Zhou ignored them. Instead, he looked at Yu Shangrong and asked, "Where's your Eldest Senior Brother?"
Yu Shangrong lowered his head slightly and said apologetically, "I wasn't able to protect him. I'm willing to accept any punishment, master."
Xia Changqiu saw the others hovering in the air. It would not do for them to float around the mountain. Hence, he said loudly, "Everyone, why don't we gather in the hall? We should catch up when old friends meet."
Lu Zhou looked at Xia Changqiu and asked,
"You're the Monastery Master of the Thousand Willow Monastery?"
"That's right."
"You're quite perceptive. Is this young man named Ji Fengxing a disciple of the Thousand Willow Monastery?" Lu Zhou asked.
"Indeed, Ji Fengxing is a disciple of the Thousand Willow Monastery. Xia Changqiu felt slightly embarrassed. The difference between the disciples of the Thousand Willow Monastery and the disciples of the Thousand Willow Monastery was too great.
At this moment, Lu Zhou turned to look at Ji Fengxing.
He stroked his beard and said, "Young man, I can see that you have a good character. The Evil Sky Pavilion places great importance on this. If you're willing, I can make an exception and accept you into the Evil Sky Pavilion. You'll be on the same level as Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng. "
Ji Fengxing. "…"
He was momentarily stunned.
He did not know how to respond.
"Do you mind if I do this?" Lu Zhou glanced at Xia Changqiu.
Xia Changqiu's expression froze. He chuckled dryly and waved his hands as he said, "No, I don't …"
If it had been anyone else, Xia Changqiu would have skinned that person alive.
Ji Fengxing bowed and said, "I'm able to cultivate because of the Thousand Willow Monastery. Since I've joined the sect, how can I betray them? You've said that you're interested in my character. If I leave with you, it would mean that you've made a mistake. " "Thank you for your kind offer, old senior."
'Interesting.'
This was the second time Lu Zhou was rejected.
However, Ji Fengxing had a point.
Since Ji Fengxing was unwilling, Lu Zhou should not force him.
A forceful melon would not be sweet. The Evil Sky Pavilion did not lack this person.
As for Wuwu, she had a good character as well. It was just that she was not mentioned.
Xia Changqiu nodded approvingly. He turned to the side and said, "Everyone, this way …"
The others entered the Fair Hall.
To show their respect, the elders of the Thousand Willow Monastery hurried over as well.
As soon as Little Yuan 'er sat down, she said, "Second Senior Brother, master had a hard time looking for you …"
As she spoke, she recounted their journey across the Endless Ocean and their long flight. The others were shocked when they heard this.
Initially, Yu Shangrong did not pay much attention to this. After all, with his master's cultivation base, it was not surprising that he had reached the other shore. However, after listening to his little junior sister's recount, he learned that his master did not come to the red lotus domain through the black water. He had traveled across the Endless Ocean. He was shocked.
The Endless Ocean was said to be a place no cultivator could cross … Nobody knew how many dangers lurked there.
He did not expect his master to go to such great lengths for him.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and asked, "Tell me, how's your Eldest Senior Brother doing?"
Yu Shangrong nodded. Then, he told Lu Zhou about his battle with Yu Zhenghai and Zhu Xuan. He also told him about the Flying Star House's repeated visits to the Thousand Willow Monastery.
After listening to Yu Shangrong's story, Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded as he said, "Zhu Xuan attained the Nine-leaf stage during the battle. It's not easy for you to fight him to a draw. On the surface, they're trying to work with you, but in truth, they're trying to use you. There's no way your Eldest Senior Brother doesn't understand this. He's deliberately going with them to ensure your safety. "
When Xia Changqiu heard this, he said, "I'm ashamed … It's all the Thousand Willow Monastery's fault. Otherwise, this wouldn't have happened."
Little Yuan 'er was not a good-tempered person. She immediately said angrily, "Master, if they dare to capture Eldest Senior Brother, we'll go to their door right now. I don't care if they're from the Eighth or Ninth Temple!"
Xia Changqiu, the elders, Ji Fengxing, and Wuwu were speechless.
They did not expect Yu Shangrong to stand up as well. He chimed in, "If you're going to go to their door, master, I'm willing to go with you."
"…"
'What a bunch of lunatics.'
Xia Changqiu coughed and hastily said, "Old senior, you're from the golden lotus domain. Although I don't know much about the golden lotus domain, I must tell you that the Ninth Temple isn't as weak as you think."
Little Yuan 'er brandished her fists and said, "That's because you don't know my master. I've never seen anyone who could stand under my master's palm."
Ji Fengxing was in a daze. He recalled Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai's unintentional praise of Yu Shangrong. He was no different from this lass.
Were all his disciples like this?
Or … was this old senior really as strong as they said?
