Lu Zhou did not unleash the power of his Birth Chart. Instead, he moved swiftly to catch up to them.
He noticed that Yu Zhenghai's movements and speed were top-notch as he traveled west. It was truly impressive for a Nine-leaf cultivator to reach this level.
Until they arrived at the western city wall.
"What is he trying to do?"
Usually, Lu Zhou rarely paid attention to his disciples' personal lives. Perhaps, he was in a good mood today, so he took the opportunity to show some interest.
The afterglow of the evening fell on the stone slabs of the palace from the city walls.
Lu Zhou had the Violet Glazed Ceramic with him. Ordinary cultivators would not be able to detect him.
With a light leap, he landed on the other side of the tower on the city wall. Facing the evening breeze, he gazed at the afterglow as he stroked his beard.
On the other side of the tower.
Yu Zhenghai stood with his hands on his back. He was also looking at the afterglow.
He didn't know that his master was on the other side.
Just then …
A figure in a grey robe rushed over from afar and quickly arrived on the city wall.
His speed was not slow.
When the person arrived at the top of the city wall, he said to Yu Zhenghai, "Mister First …"
Yu Zhenghai said, "You've kept your promise."
"How could I dare not come when I have an appointment with the First Mister … I wonder if the First Mister has considered the matter I mentioned last time?" the man said.
"If you'd like to join the Evil Sky Pavilion, you can speak to my master directly. He has a keen eye, and he never makes a mistake when it comes to judging people, "Yu Zhenghai said.
"Even Mr. First doesn't have the right to decide?"
"It's not that there aren't any. It's … unnecessary, "Yu Zhenghai said.
"Hmm?"
"You're only a Nine-leaf cultivator. That's nothing in the Evil Sky Pavilion. Also, I've only known you for a few days. Heroes cherish heroes. Your saber skills are passable, but you're still far from it, "Yu Zhenghai said.
"…" Zhang Xiangxiang.
The night breeze blew gently.
The afterglow gradually disappeared.
The sunset was infinitely beautiful, but it was near dusk.
Yu Zhenghai opened his narrowed eyes and looked at the horizon and the scenery outside the western part of the city. He could not help but sigh. "You should return. You can consider serving Great Tang in the future."
"No, no, no … Mister First, you've misunderstood something."
"What is it?"
"I'm not an ordinary Nine-leaf cultivator …"
As Zhang Xiangxiang spoke, he suddenly unleashed his energy fist toward Yu Zhenghai's face. Whoosh! Whoosh!
As the energy fists flashed, energy sabers appeared beside them. They slashed at Yu Zhenghai's protective energy. Bam! Bam! Bam!
The sudden turn of events shocked Yu Zhenghai.
However, Yu Zhenghai was not an ordinary Nine-leaf cultivator. After years of life-and-death battles, he had developed the habit of calmly facing any sudden danger, no matter when or where.
The Great Dark Heavenly Palm continued to strike, blocking the energy sabers and energy fists.
Yu Zhenghai parried the series of attacks.
"That's all you've got?" Yu Zhenghai sneered.
"Follow me if you have the guts."
Goading him into action?
Lu Zhou thought of this phrase.
It was clear they were trying to lure Yu Zhenghai over.
If they were in the Imperial City, a slight commotion would attract even more experts.
This Zhang Xiangxiang is very smart, but I'm afraid he has some tricks up his sleeve.
Yu Zhenghai said with a smile, "Trying to lure me out? I'll satisfy you then. "
He leaped up and followed after them.
Lu Zhou shook his head. How did the Sect Master of the Nether Sect rise to where he was after so many years? After giving it some thought, he shook his head. It was not a good idea to reject his disciple so soon. Perhaps, Yu Zhenghai had a trump card of his own. He was not that stupid. Lu Zhou was about to give chase when another figure appeared in Yu Zhenghai's place. It was his second disciple, Yu Shangrong.
Yu Shangrong crossed his arms and carried his Longevity Sword on his back. He stood in the wind and shook his head with a smile.
"He's only a Ten-leaf cultivator who's hiding his cultivation base. Why don't he spar with Nie Qingyun?"
Lu Zhou. "…"
'Indeed, I'm worried for nothing.'
Yu Shangrong moved as lightly as a swallow as he chased after Yu Zhenghai.
Lu Zhou paused for a moment. After a long moment of silence, he followed after Yu Shangrong.
…
At the relay station in the western part of the city.
Perhaps, Yu Zhenghai and Zhang Xiangxiang's actions had attracted the attention of some cultivators.
"There's another battle between high-ranked cultivators. Let's go and take a look."
"It's so lively. I think it's from the Imperial City … Could it be the rumored Evil Sky Pavilion?"
"A friendly reminder. Those below the Five-leaf stage, don't watch the battle! A friendly reminder. Those below the Five-leaf stage, don't watch the battle! "
Yu Zhenghai chased after Zhang Xiangxiang until they reached the ruins of the western part of the city.
It was dim now. The empty buildings on both sides of the street had a peculiar atmosphere to them. Weeds grew everywhere. He had to admit this place was suitable for sparring and fighting.
Yu Zhenghai's Jasper Saber buzzed. His battle spirit was roused.
His sparring with Nie Qingyun was done with the sparring. He did not feel anything special about it.
On the other hand, Zhang Xiangxiang's unfathomable sense of danger piqued his interest.
Zhang Xiangxiang said, "Mister First, if I defeat you, will you let me join the Evil Sky Pavilion?"
"Defeat me? It suits your name. I'm just thinking about it. " Yu Zhenghai stepped forward. He did not draw his saber. With swift movements, he appeared in front of Zhang Xiangxiang and struck with his palm.
The Great Dark Heaven Palm.
His first move was a glittering palm print that pushed Zhang Xiangxiang backward.
Zhang Xiangxiang smiled faintly. He pushed the palm seal until he was in front of the ruins. Then, he stomped his feet and clenched his fist.
The palm seal vanished.
Some cultivators who were watching the battle flew nearby and saw this scene.
"Golden … Someone from the Evil Sky Pavilion!" a cultivator exclaimed.
"Our opponent is a red lotus cultivator. We're on the same side."
No matter how famous the Evil Sky Pavilion was, there would always be a small group of people who would differentiate between friend and foe based on color. However, ever since the Evil Sky Pavilion intimidated the Sky Martial Court and the battle at Tianlun Canyon, who dared to provoke the Evil Sky Pavilion?
The battle in the Imperial city's Thousand Worlds had struck fear into the hearts of many cultivators in the capital.
If an expert were to go on a killing spree, there would surely be a storm of blood.
After Li Yunzheng regained power in Great Tang, his actions had greatly reduced the hostility of many people toward the golden lotus cultivators. Many people believed the golden lotus cultivators and the red lotus cultivators should work together instead of being enemies.
At this moment, a green-robed swordsman with a sword on his back landed in the middle of the crowd. He crossed his arms. He was not a fan of crowds, but he watched the scene with a faint smile on his face.
The person next to him turned to look at him and said, "Hey, who do you think will win?"
"Me?" Yu Shangrong asked.
"Yes. I can see that your movement technique is quite good. I'm sure your judgment isn't bad as well."
Yu Shangrong watched for a moment before he said with a faint smile, "Perhaps … the red lotus cultivator will win. The golden lotus cultivator is rather arrogant. Perhaps, he'll suffer."
"You have a good eye, brother … Come, place your bets. I'll bet on the red lotus cultivator."
Several cultivators placed their bets.
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou landed on top of another building and watched the battle from afar.
Zhang Xiangxiang stomped his feet and rose to the top of the building. He released thousands of energy sabers that formed a circular disc.
He opened his palm. Golden energy sabers hovered above his palm. One turned into two, two turned into four, four turned into eight … At this moment, thousands of energy sabers were pushed forward.
"Dark Heaven Starlight."
The Great Dark Heaven Memorial that resembled a windmill shattered Zhang Xiangxiang's energy sabers. Some of its power even surged toward Zhang Xiangxiang.
"You can use the Jasper Saber. It's taboo to underestimate your opponent," Zhang Xiangxiang reminded him.
"If I use my saber, I'm afraid you won't be able to withstand it." He pushed his palm forward again.
The palm seal and the energy sabers collided.
Zhang Xiangxiang did not retreat. Instead, he advanced. The two of them clashed with their energy sabers.
The energy sabers rained down in all directions. The already crumbling ruins were now riddled with holes. The buildings were covered in slashes.
"Judging by the looks of it, Brother Red Lotus isn't at a disadvantage. It's not easy for him to fight the Evil Sky Pavilion's boss for so long!" someone said.
"That's because he hasn't used his full strength." Yu Shangrong watched the battle.
"Heh, didn't you bet on the red lotus cultivator? Why are you speaking up for him? "
Yu Shangrong's expression remained the same. He maintained a faint smile. "There's no conflict between the outcome of the bet and the outcome of the battle. These are two separate matters. “
"…"
'What kind of logic is this?'
The young man at the side asked curiously, "Brother, you know about the Evil Sky Pavilion?"
Yu Shangrong tilted his head slightly and said humbly and politely, "I know a thing or two about it."
"I heard that the Evil Sky Pavilion's ten disciples are all elites. Any one of them can command the world. Is that true?"
"It's an exaggeration to say so, but it's true." Yu Shangrong nodded.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
The number of energy sabers suddenly doubled.
Zhang Xiangxiang's expression also became heavy, and the atmosphere of the battle seemed to be completely different from the previous one.
"Since when did the capital have such an elite?" someone exclaimed in shock. "This is the number of energy sabers that only a peak Nine-leaf cultivator can unleash!"
"The Evil Sky Pavilion is at a disadvantage. He can easily control the number of energy sabers at the peak of the Nine-leaf stage. I think he's the elite who just reached the Ten-leaf stage a few days ago!"
Lu Zhou heard this.
He remembered the Birth Chart Beast, Dijiang, whom he and Lu Li subdued a few days ago.
Could it be that Dijiang was attracted by Zhang Xiangxiang?
This was fate.
When Yu Shangrong saw Zhang Xiangxiang's attacks sharpened, he said in a gentle tone, "Alas, a Ten-leaf cultivator might not be able to win."
