Meng Changdong wanted to chime in. Although Si Wuya's idea was not brilliant, it was not bad. At the very least, it was safer. But when he thought of Senior Lu's unreasonable cultivation, he could only swallow it down. It was true that one person could defeat ten people with great strength. No matter how good a plan was, it was meaningless in the face of absolute power.
Si Wuya knew this better than anyone in the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "How's the Evil Sky Pavilion doing lately?"
Si Wuya replied,
"The four elders are already at the Nine-leaf stage. Third Senior Brother is slightly slower, but he's already at the Eight-leaf stage. Third Senior Brother is extremely hardworking. I think it won't be long before he reaches the Nine-leaf stage. Eighth Junior Brother … Five-leaf. Senior Sister Zhao Yue has been busy with the nation's affairs and has only grown by one leaf. I find this strange. I'll go to the Divine Capital in a few days to find out more. "
The four elders were top-notch geniuses to begin with. Before they severed their lotuses, apart from Hua Wudao, the other three elders had been famous for a long time. They were Eight-leaf elites as well. It was only natural for them to reach the Eight-leaf stage.
"Also, Penglai Island's Huang Shijie tried to attain the Nine-leaf stage some time ago, but he didn't have a life heart. I made the decision on my own and gave them two life hearts, "Si Wuya said.
Lu Zhou said.
"You've done a good job. Penglai Island has been a great help to the Evil Sky Pavilion. Two life hearts are nothing. You can make the decisions regarding these trivial matters. There's no need to report to me."
Si Wuya nodded.
He continued to say, "Jiang Aijian came to the Evil Sky Pavilion a few days ago …"
"What could possibly happen to him?" Lu Zhou was puzzled.
"He said that he really wants to see grandma, but he doesn't want to be associated with the palace. Could he ask Senior Sister Zhao Yue to give him a token that allows him to come and go freely? Considering that the situation in Luoyang was not stable yet, I rejected him. We'll give it to him when the time is right, "Si Wuya said.
If Lu Zhou were in the golden lotus domain, he would have agreed to Jiang Aijian's request. However, Si Wuya had been away from the golden lotus domain for quite some time now. He did not know much about the golden lotus domain. Si Wuya had his reasons for doing this. As his master, he could not restrict him too much.
"Alright."
Lu Zhou nodded again. With Si Wuya's support, the golden lotus domain should not be a problem. "I have one more thing to tell you."
"Your orders, master?" Si Wuya bowed.
"I'm old, and I don't have the energy to do many things. Great Tang's Emperor, Li Yunzheng, was well-read. He was astute and eager to learn. He was a rare talent. I will personally make the decision for you and accept him as your disciple. "
Si Wuya was taken aback. He looked up and pointed at himself in shock as he said, "Master, you … you accepted a disciple for me?"
"You're not willing?" Lu Zhou was puzzled.
Si Wuya hastily waved his hands and said, "I dare not. I'm afraid that I'll mislead him. After all, he's the ruler of an empire. If I make a mistake, wouldn't I be condemned for all eternity?"
"I believe in your abilities. After all, you've been a Grand Tutor before. You're not confident when you should be," Lu Zhou added with a frown, "It's decided then. Don't disappoint me."
"Understood …" Si Wuya said with a bow.
"If there's nothing else, I'll have Protector Meng pass on the information regarding Red Lotus to you. You may leave. "
Meng Changdong and Si Wuya replied in unison, "Understood."
Meng Changdong ended the Formation. He bowed at Lu Zhou before he turned around and left.
Lu Zhou had the Cloud Mountain disciples summon Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai. The two of them were puzzled as well. They did not know what their master intended to do. Upon entering the hall, they stood respectfully.
"I've summoned you here because I have something to tell you."
"Yes, master," Yu Zhenghai said, "Leave the Sky Wheel Mountain Range to me and Second Junior Brother. We'll make sure nothing goes wrong."
Lu Zhou shook his head.
"That's not it … I'm ordering the two of you to head to the Sky Martial Court and investigate Yu Chenshu in secret. You're only required to find out if he's there. You're not to fight him."
Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong. "???"
They were dumbfounded.
Lu Zhou raised his hand and pushed his palm forward. Two seals flew toward the two of them.
"If you don't see Yu Chenshu, remove the seals and deal with it on your own."
"Understood."
Lu Zhou modified Si Wuya's plan.
After all, the red lotus domain was not like the golden lotus domain. They could do whatever they wanted. The Sky Martial Court had a profound foundation. It was difficult to guarantee that they did not have other trump cards or Formations that were difficult to deal with.
Before they severed their lotuses in the golden lotus domain, Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai were elite Eight-leaf elites. They could do whatever they wanted wherever they went. Even sects with Formations and barriers were not a problem for them to challenge them. This method would not work in the red lotus domain.
"Prioritize your own safety. Go," Lu Zhou said.
Yu Zhenghai smiled and said, "Don't worry, master. If I don't run, I'll be the master of a sect for nothing."
After he finished speaking, he suddenly realized he had misspoken. He hastily corrected himself, "I meant that I'll complete the mission."
In truth, Yu Zhenghai had a point.
Although Yu Zhenghai was a Nine-leaf cultivator, he often sparred with Nie Qingyun. His combat experience was not inferior to an ordinary Nine-leaf cultivator. It would be difficult for an ordinary Ten-leaf cultivator to take them down. Moreover, he was not asking them to fight each other to the death.
The two of them left Cloud Mountain.
Lu Zhou stood up and walked to the back of the hall. He called out, "Whitzard."
Whitzard heeded his call and flew out from the nearby forest.
"Use your ability."
Whitzard obeyed Lu Zhou's order. Auspicious rain fell from its body.
Lu Zhou closed his eyes slightly. The extraordinary power of the Heavenly Writing scrolls was quickly replenished. In just a short while, his extraordinary power was fully replenished. After Whitzard used its ability, it landed on the ground and lay down to rest.
He still had more than 100,000 merit points. He could use them to buy cards at the moment.
Hence, there was no need for him to buy more item cards.
When he was almost done with his preparations, Lu Zhou left the side hall. He activated the Purple Glazed Ceramic and left Cloud Mountain soundlessly. He flew toward the Yong's crash site.
With Nie Qingyun guarding Cloud Mountain, even if the various forces attacked him at the same time, he would be able to hold them off for a while. Even Ye Zhen could not take him down before this, let alone now.
…
Lu Zhou arrived at the crash site.
Lu Zhou glanced at the huge carcass.
Without hesitation, he produced the life heart and pushed it into the carcass.
He waved his hand again. His Primal Qi condensed into energy and closed the two halves of the carcass.
Although the carcass was huge, it was not impossible for a Ten-leaf cultivator like Lu Zhou to lift it. When Lu Zhou was still an Eight-leaf cultivator, he could lift the floating island with a single hand. The Yong was much smaller than the floating island.
"Rise."
With the help of the energy, the Yong spread its wings and slowly rose into the air.
Compared to the Yong, Lu Zhou's figure was much smaller. All he had to do was hide behind his wings, and it would be difficult to spot him.
When the Cloud Mountain disciples saw this, they were startled. They immediately ran toward the main peak.
"Sect Master! This is bad! The Yong has come back to life! The Yong has come back to life! "
When Nie Qingyun heard this, he hastily rose to his feet. His eyes widened as he said, "Impossible!"
"It really has come back to life. You'll know when you go out and take a look."
Nie Qingyun flew to the main peak with a few movements. He looked at the slowly departing Yong with a complicated expression on his face as he said, "How … how's this possible?"
He had seen Lu Zhou retrieve the Birth Chart Beast's life heart with his own eyes.
His common sense told him that under such circumstances, no matter what kind of beast it was, it would surely die.
He hastily landed and made his way to the side hall where Lu Zhou was.
When he arrived at the entrance of the side hall, he bowed and said, "Nie Qingyun requests an audience with Senior Lu."
There was no response from the side hall.
Nie Qingyun said loudly, "Nie Qingyun requests an audience with Senior Lu."
There was still no response.
There was no response.
Nie Qingyun no longer requested an audience. When he remembered the Yong, something stirred in his heart.
'Could it be … Senior Lu's method is amazing?'
After he figured it out, he decided to act as though nothing had happened. He swiftly returned to the main hall.
