Ji Fengxing's voice was especially prominent in the Fair Hall. He wondered what kind of emotional journey Xia Changqiu, the monastery master of the Thousand Willow Monastery, had gone through. Xia Changqiu turned to look at Ji Fengxing who was mumbling to himself. He cleared his throat and said, "Fengxing."
"Monastery Master!" Ji Fengxing shuddered and snapped out of his thoughts.
"What did you just say?"
"I'm saying that you might really be invincible, old senior," Ji Fengxing answered honestly.
Xia Changqiu rebuked, "Don't spout nonsense. There are as many experts in the world as there are trees in a forest. Who can be truly invincible? You are still too young and inexperienced. You have to remember that there is always someone better than you out there. "
"I'll remember that." Ji Fengxing was speechless.
After all, he came from a poor family and had no one to discipline him for many years. When he stepped into the sect, it was mostly because of Wuwu from the same village that he became an outer disciple. He dreamed of traveling the world with his sword and becoming a respected master of the sword. He had no parents. It was already a blessing that he could enter the Thousand Willow Monastery. Now that the monastery master, Xia Changqiu, was willing to teach him, he was willing to listen.
Xia Changqiu looked at Ji Fengxing and asked, "How's your relationship with that old mister's disciple?"
"We're … considered friends." Ji Fengxing's face turned red as soon as he finished speaking. What kind of cultivation did the other party have? What kind of trash was he? To speak in such a manner was purely trying to flatter himself.
"You can go now. Cultivate well in the future. If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me," Xia Changqiu said.
"Yes!"
Not long after Ji Fengxing left, Tian Buji returned to Fair Hall after making arrangements for Lu Zhou and the others.
When Tian Buji saw Xia Changqiu pacing back and forth with a worried expression on his face, he stepped forward and asked, "Monastery Master, are you not going to the Ninth Temple?"
Xia Changqiu sat down and heavily patted the chair's handle, saying, "Can I not go?"
"In my opinion, we can go." Tian Buji looked out of the hall and continued to say, "Old senior, it must be a Nine-leaf cultivator. An extraordinary Nine-leaf cultivator at that."
Xia Changqiu lifted his head and looked at Tian Buji in confusion.
Tian Buji said, "Monastery Master, it's true that the Ninth Temple is unreachable. However, the old senior was not someone who could be easily bullied. Since Zhu Xuan had invited Yu Zhenghai to the Ninth Temple, it meant the Ninth Temple did not want to make more enemies. Moreover, it had been 1,000 years since Sikong Beichen last made a move. To put it bluntly, Sikong Beichen might have died a long time ago. Even if he was still alive, how many years could he last? If they were smart, they wouldn't make enemies. Instead … they would try to rope them in. "
Xia Changqiu's eyes brightened as he said, "Elder Tian, your words have enlightened me. Five days from now, the Thousand Willow Monastery will make a grand entrance to the Flying Star House … Send someone to clean up the flying chariot."
"Yes."
…
In the room.
Lu Zhou prepared to meditate on the Heavenly Writing.
The fight with Fa Hua had consumed some of his energy, and he needed some time to recover.
Perhaps it was due to the rise in his cultivation that the effects of his extraordinary power were not as obvious as before, or perhaps it was because his opponents had become stronger.
When he thought about the armor, he remembered that the starting point of extraordinary power was the Nine-leaf stage. He could activate the armor's power. Now that his opponent was a Nine-leaf cultivator, would his extraordinary power change?
With the Unhindered Heavenly Ear Divine Ability, he could hear all the sounds in all the lands and all the sounds as he wished.
Heavenly Writing, the power of hearing.
Lu Zhou's extraordinary power surged out and covered his surroundings.
After his cultivation base improved, the range of his extraordinary power had increased. Various voices rang in his ears.
"The old man who came today sure knows how to put on an act. However, he does seem powerful. Even the monastery master is afraid of him."
"Of course. His disciples are top-notch sword path elites. They're even on par with Zhu Xuan. How can the old man be weak?"
Lu Zhou's extraordinary power increased.
The range of his extraordinary power expanded.
"That old mister doesn't have a good eye. I can't believe he wants to recruit that idiot, Ji Fengxing. That idiot's cultivation talent is ridiculously weak. This is the first time Miss Wuwu is being looked down upon. "
"It's not that simple. Can't you see the two little girls by his side? How can the two little girls be simple if they're able to come to the red lotus domain with him? Wuwu is talented, but I don't think she's as good as the old man. "
"You have a point."
The blue light in Lu Zhou's ears grew brighter.
He used all his remaining extraordinary power.
Whizz!
The power of hearing instantly covered the entire Thousand Willow Monastery. It stretched for dozens of miles. Lu Zhou did not know where it came from, but he heard a sneaky voice.
"Don't make a sound. Go back and report this."
He stopped using his power.
Lu Zhou opened his eyes. He walked up to the window with his hands on his back and looked down at the back of the mountain.
The mountain was silent. Apart from the flying beasts circling in the air, there was nothing else.
A cool breeze blew past, dispersing the mist in the forest. The clouds parted, but there was no one in sight.
"Is someone monitoring the Thousand Willow Monastery?" Lu Zhou stroked his beard as he paced around.
Compared to the Ninth Temple, the Sky Martial Court, and the Flying Star House, the Thousand Willow Monastery was extremely weak. Who would pay attention to a weak sect?
"Are they targeting me?"
Lu Zhou had many trump cards. Two Deadly Strike Cards allowed him to face two Ten-leaf cultivators at the same time without any fear. However, the Ninth Temple's Five First Seats were not weaklings. They were all old men. Since he had decided to go, he had to plan for the worst-case scenario.
The worst-case scenario was if all the elites attacked him at the same time.
If he exposed his identity as a foreign tribesman in the golden lotus domain, that might be the worst-case scenario.
He opened the dashboard.
Merit points: 16540.
'Should I buy another card?
I should take it easy for now. It's not easy to earn merit points now.
The people here would not kowtow when they saw a golden lotus.
"Lucky draw."
"Ding! Spent 50 merit points. Thank you for participating. Luck + 1."
'Well done.
My luck is 101 points now. '
He felt as though he was about to break a record.
This was a humiliation to him, who was once a Lucky Emperor.
"Lucky draw."
"Ding! Spent 50 merit points. Spent 102 luck points. Obtained Impeccable Card x1, Reversal Card x1, Calm Disturbance."
Lu Zhou felt that it was a good deal to have two Impeccable Cards. Each card cost 15,000 merit points. It was even more detestable than vampires.
Lu Zhou muttered under his breath, "Why does this lousy system need so many merit points?"
After muttering to himself, Lu Zhou shifted his attention to the new item card, Calm Disturbance.
"Calm Disturbance?"
"Calm Disturbance. There's a chance to comprehend a new sword path."
Lu Zhou looked at the notification. He did not think too much about it. He said, "Use."
The Calm Disturbance item card shattered and transformed into specks of starlight that swirled around his body.
After the starlight faded away, Lu Zhou stretched his limbs.
There were no changes … He did not feel anything else.
'There's a chance … Did I fail?'
Fortunately, he had the Impeccable Card. Otherwise, he would have suffered a huge loss from this lucky draw.
Shortly after, Lu Zhou returned to meditating on the Heavenly Writing scrolls.
If there were no mishaps, he should be able to fill it up in five days.
…
Meanwhile.
In the human city where the Ninth Temple was located on Jiannan Road.
Inside one of the towers.
Zhu Xuan pointed at the nine main palaces that surrounded the city and said, "Sir, are you satisfied with this place?"
Yu Zhenghai had been treated well recently.
His daily life was taken care of by people. Apart from having someone follow him when he went out for a stroll, he was no different from a normal person.
Yu Zhenghai walked up to Zhu Xuan and looked down with his hands on his back. He said, "If you're sincere about working together, you should invite the First Seats to meet me. Otherwise, I will feel bad if I eat and drink for free. "
Ever since he came to the Ninth Temple, he had never seen any of the five rumored First Seats.
Zhu Xuan smiled and said, "The Ninth Temple is rich, and it's more than enough for you to spend … Since I've invited you, it's only natural that I'm sincere about working with you. The Ninth Temple's First Seats are revered. They're not people you can meet just because you want to. The Mystery Temple's First Seat has just come out of seclusion. I've already reported this to him. First Seat Zhang said that we can work together, but we have to be sincere. "
"Sincerity?" Yu Zhenghai asked.
"You're from the golden lotus domain, after all. If the Sky Martial Court and the palace find out about this, the Ninth Temple will be in trouble. Hence, the Ninth Temple needs to know everything about you, your sect, and the golden lotus domain, "Zhu Xuan said.
He was going to expose his past.
Yu Zhenghai was not surprised.
He had been in charge of the Nether Sect for many years. How could he not have thought of this?
"What if I don't say it? “
"I'm sure you'll tell me … It's getting late, you should rest early. I'll visit you again in a month. "Zhu Xuan turned around and left.
One month …
Yu Zhenghai did not turn around. Instead, he stood on the balcony with his hands on his back as he looked down at the Ninth Temple.
