Another day passed.
Early in the morning.
The capital looked like a painting after the heavy rain, fresh and clean.
It was quiet and peaceful in the ruins.
All traces of battle had been washed away by the heavy rain.
Three black figures flew over from afar, constantly flickering … Not long after, they stopped on top of the ruins.
They were all wearing black armor.
Peeping Tom and Mask.
The three of them stood in a triangular formation and looked around.
They sensed the battle aura around them …
After a while, the one on the left said, "Captain, it should be here, but the aura is very weak."
The armored man standing in front nodded slightly.
"That idiot Zhang Ximing is dead. We have no one in the red lotus domain. "
"What should we do next?"
"Follow the instructions of the Elders Council. It's not good to kill. We can't interfere with the captive breeding plan … Let's repair the formation in the stone forest and find a new contact. "
The other two nodded at the same time.
The captain continued.
"In addition, we lost a Birth Chart Beast. It should be from a new expert in the red lotus domain. The death of Yi Yao, a member of the council, is probably related to this person. Someone who can kill Yi Yao is not simple. So, don't fight with this expert alone. He must have someone supporting him since he dared to fight the black tower council. "
The average strength of the Onyx Guards was around four Birth Charts.
Yi Yao had five Birth Charts.
Even with the Ocean Soul Pearl, he still died.
So, the three of them were very cautious.
"Indeed. He killed Yi Yao and dared to fight the black tower openly. I'm afraid the Onyx Guards alone won't be enough. "
The one on the right nodded. "I'm curious. Yan Zhenluo and Yi Yao were on a mission together. How could something happen to him? Yan Zhenluo said he went missing, but it's not credible. "
"Yan Zhenluo has a close relationship with Lu Li. Lu Li disappeared and no one knows where he is. It's normal for him to complain. "
The captain raised his hand and interrupted them.
"So … let's investigate and get to the bottom of the matter first. We can report to the higher-ups and request for more Onyx Guards or the Trial Union. Zhang Ximing is dead. There's no need to investigate further. "
"The Trial Union? Will they do anything? I'm afraid the other forces will be unhappy. "
The captain shook his head. "I have a feeling that the balance of the captive breeding plan will be broken. When that happens, it won't be as simple as a battle between black and red. The contradictions within the Black Tower Council were too deep. Even if the Trial Union didn't act, someone else would. The Red Lotus Sect's Qian Jie was not in a hurry to rush to the front. There would naturally be people who could not resist making a move. We just need to do what we have to do. Remember, staying alive is the most important thing. "
"Captain is wise."
"Let's go."
The three of them made a feint.
He disappeared.
…
Imperial City, Hall of Healing.
In order to supervise his disciples' cultivation, Lu Zhou ordered them not to leave the palace without permission. They were to focus on their cultivation.
Starting from Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong, they would supervise their cultivation every two days. At the same time, they would be assessed.
In less than a month, the disciples' expressions changed when they talked about their master.
It was as if he had returned to the fear of being beaten up in the past.
This was especially true for Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong. As the First and Second Young Masters of the Evil Sky Pavilion, they were tortured by their master every day. Their junior brothers and sisters could not bear to watch.
The two high and mighty senior brothers had completely crumbled in the eyes of their junior brothers and sisters.
Lu Zhou was not bothered by this. After all, his teachings were much more humane than Ji Tiandao's. He would explain to his disciples one-on-one, and he would demonstrate to them what they did not understand.
One afternoon.
The Evil Sky Pavilion's four elders walked toward the Hall of Healing.
They saw Duanmu Sheng standing in front of the hall with his Overlord Spear in hand.
The four elders were not his disciples so they had no right to interfere. They could only watch from afar.
Shortly after, Lu Zhou appeared on the steps in front of the hall. He looked around and asked in confusion, "Old Third?"
"Master, Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother aren't feeling well today. Seventh Senior Brother is cultivating with his nephews. Ninth Junior Sister and Tenth Junior Sister are practicing their movement techniques," Duanmu Sheng said.
Lu Zhou frowned and said,
"If you don't come today, I'll double the punishment next time."
As soon as he finished speaking …
A voice rang from the distance.
"Greetings, master!"
Yu Zhenghai appeared in the distance and bowed at Lu Zhou.
The four elders looked over and saw Yu Zhenghai's face was swollen and bruised. He seemed to be wriggling as he walked.
Shortly after, Yu Shangrong walked over slowly with his Longevity Sword in his arms. Apart from walking slowly, Yu Shangrong was no different from a normal person.
The two of them walked up to Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "I've personally demonstrated the Great Dark Heaven Memorial previously. Today, I'll demonstrate it with the Return Strike …"
Yu Shangrong looked up, bowed, and said, "Master, I have something to say."
"Let's hear it."
"Third Junior Brother, you've been watching the battle for several days. I'm sure you have many questions," Yu Shangrong said.
Indeed, his focus had been on Yu Shangrong and Yu Shangrong.
It was only right for them to share the benefits.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded. He looked at Duanmu Sheng and said, "Very well … Duanmu Sheng will be in charge from now on. Come over here."
Over the past month, Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong's teachings had slowed down the number of merit points he earned. Lu Zhou seemed to have noticed the pattern of earning merit points from disciplining his disciples. As long as he had something to teach his disciples, he would be able to earn merit points. Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong already had a deep understanding of their cultivation methods. It was difficult for them to have anything to teach their disciples. Hence, Lu Zhou's personal demonstration might help them improve.
In short, the fewer merit points he had, the fewer things he could teach them. Unless his understanding of cultivation improved and he had something new to teach them, he would not be able to do so.
"Huh?" Duanmu Sheng was taken aback.
Yu Zhenghai waved his hand and said, "Master is calling for you. Third Junior Brother … It's finally your turn."
Duanmu Sheng thought to himself, 'Since my two senior brothers can endure it, I'm not weak either. What's there to be afraid of?' Hence, he walked over.
"Master."
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "Among your peers, you have the worst aptitude, but you're the most hardworking in your cultivation. It's not an empty saying that hard work makes up for one's lack of talent. I've always seen your hard work. "
Upon hearing this, something stirred in Duanmu Sheng.
"Unleash your Divine One Technique. Let me see," Lu Zhou said.
"Understood."
Duanmu Sheng began brandishing his Overlord Spear before the hall.
In the beginning, he did not move quickly. However, gradually, he moved like a gust of wind and a storm.
Sometimes, it sounded like the babbling of a brook, and sometimes, it sounded like the surging of the sea.
Every move and stance was executed to the point of perfection, just right, and the power was also very precise.
After he was done with the Divine One Technique, he returned to the hall with a straight face.
After Lu Zhou was done, he nodded and asked, "Are you still sparring with Elder Hua?"
"There were ten sparring sessions last month, and I was lucky enough to win six of them. However, after Elder Hua obtained the Square Box, I can only win three times, "Duanmu Sheng said.
Hua Wudao. "…"
Hua Wudao's face flushed red. He was a Nine-leaf cultivator, after all.
He could not blame himself for being weak. It was just that Duanmu Sheng was too domineering and hardworking. Duanmu Sheng kept fighting despite his losses. No one could stand up to him.
With a flash, Lu Zhou appeared 10 meters away from Duanmu Sheng and said, "Use everything you've got. Just attack me."
