He checked the Fire Spirit Rock in the bag.
The energy was sufficient, and the quality was excellent. Jiang Yi sealed the bag and asked, "The Fire Spirit Rock is so rare; how did you obtain it?"
The black-robed cultivator laughed and said, "That's right.
"You've already seen my star compass … it's not surprising that you have these Fire Spirit Stones."
It was obvious that he didn't want to talk about the past.
However, he could also guess some clues.
How could someone who was able to form 12 Fate Providences be a nameless person?
What surprised Lu Zhou was the identity of the expert who destroyed this person's Birth Chart.
Lu Zhou put the Fire Spirit Rock away and asked, "With your cultivation base, you should've been recruited by the other factions. Why are you a rogue cultivator?"
The black-robed cultivator sighed.
"I used to think so too, but later on, I realized that once you fall into a vortex, you can't control yourself … That's what happened to the Shaman Dynasty. Sometimes, it's not a bad thing to be a nameless ant, free and unrestrained. "
The forest was very big, and it was impossible to expect every bird to follow the crowd.
There were always some who liked to be independent or were willing to be a salted fish …
Only those who had truly tasted the various flavors would be able to sigh with emotion.
Lu Zhou weighed the black pouch in his hand. "Only six?"
"…"
The black-robed cultivator said awkwardly, "Six Fire Spirit Rocks are all I have, and it is not a small amount. Even if the formidable Black Tower and the Dark Glory Alliance were to work together, they wouldn't be able to produce six Fire Spirit Rocks. "
This thing was very valuable, but he did not expect that even the Black Tower and the Dark Light Alliance could not afford so many. The person in front of him … was not simple.
It was no wonder the Sky Martial Court and the Sky Research Court only provided one.
"Six isn't bad … How would you feel if I kill you and take this?" Lu Zhou asked.
The black-robed cultivator's eyes widened, but he quickly calmed down and said, "I can see that you are not a heinous criminal. Besides, if you want to fight, why bother asking? "
"A wise man submits to circumstances. Today, for your sake, I will let the Wu Dynasty go."
"Thank you!"
"Remember your promise. Otherwise, this old man will tear you to pieces."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Zhou blurred into motion and rose 100 meters into the air before he flew into the distance.
After Lu Zhou left …
The black-robed cultivator straightened his body and shook his head. He let out a long sigh and said, "Come out."
Ten meters in front of them, an arm stretched out from the debris. Then, a black shadow broke through the ground, and dust flew up.
Wu Chao crawled out of the ground and spat out the soil in his mouth. His eyes were filled with anxiety … He laid on the ground and panted heavily as he looked up at the sky.
After panting for a while, Wu Chao gradually calmed down. He turned around and prostrated, "Thank you, Pagoda Master, for saving my life!"
"I am no longer the Tower Master."
"No … you are, you have always been!" Wu Chao raised his head and said excitedly.
"Alright, get up."
"Yes."
"From now on, don't return to the Black Tower. I will think of a way to extinguish your life stone. "The black robed cultivator said.
Wu Chao asked doubtfully,
"Yes."
He turned to look at Lu Zhou who had disappeared into the horizon. He muttered to himself, "Why is there … such a powerful person in the golden lotus domain?"
…
Meanwhile.
Zhao Yue, who was riding on Emperor River, floated in midair, waiting for her master's return.
As soon as her master left, she heard a voice calling out to her from below.
"Zhao Yue … s-save me …"
Zhao Yue looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lian Xing below.
Lian Xing was looking at the sky as she waved at her.
She was severely injured by her master's two palm strikes. It seemed like she did not have long to live.
Zhao Yue said expressionlessly,
"You're thinking too much!"
"We've known each other for so long. Don't you believe me?" Lian Xing's expression was one of disbelief.
"I used to believe you and treated you as a friend. However, you lied to me and even tried to steal my Great Void … Is this what you call a friend? "Zhao Yue reprimanded.
"I didn't!"
"And you said you didn't?"
Zhao Yue looked down at Lian Xing. "In truth, I knew there was something wrong with you. However, my master wasn't here at that time. Otherwise, I wouldn't have agreed to suppress my cultivation base. "
"You … you lied to me?"
"You're allowed to lie to me, but I'm not allowed to lie to you?" Zhao Yue was amused.
"Don't tell me … Don't tell me that me risking my life to save you was fake as well?"
As soon as she finished speaking …
The Black-And-White Guards, who only had one Birth Chart left, charged at her.
"Even if I die, I'll drag you down with me!"
Even if they only had one Birth Chart, their cultivation base was not something Zhao Yue could compare to.
Just as the two of them lunged at her …
Quack, quack, quack … Quack, quack, quack … Dijiang's quacking sounded like a duck's as he flew a hundred meters away with Zhao Yue at lightning speed, giving her a fright.
Zhao Yue immediately used her energy to secure herself on the Dijiang's back. She looked at the Black-And-White Guards in shock.
She was even more shocked by Dijiang's speed.
In the blink of an eye, they were this far away.
The two Black-And-White Guards missed their target. Their gazes fell on the four-winged Dijiang with complicated expressions.
Both of them were covered in blood and filled with resentment.
"You go left … I'll go right …"
The two of them flanked them.
Swoosh!
Dijiang began to run in circles with Zhao Yue on his back … His lightning-quick speed was too fast for the naked eye to follow.
The more they ran, the happier they became.
The two of them chased after them for a long while, but they couldn't catch up.
Dijiang squawked.
Back then, even Yan Zhenluo with six Birth Charts couldn't take down Dijiang, let alone an injured Dijiang with one Birth Chart.
Zhao Yue laughed and said, "That's all you've got? Let's try again …"
The two of them exchanged a look and said, "Don't fall for her trick. Let's go before that old man comes back."
"Mm, let's put down the grudge between the Black Tower and the White Tower and work together to escape. What do you think?"
"No problem, the runic tunnel is still here. We should have enough time. Let's go!"
The two of them turned and flew north.
Below, Lian Xing said loudly, "Take me … take me with you!"
The Black-And-White Guard glanced at her and said, "You'll be sentenced to death if you go back!"
Ignoring Lian Xing and losing interest in Zhao Yue, the two of them fled swiftly and disappeared in a short while.
… …
Zhao Yue shook her head and said, "Unfortunately, I'm not strong enough to kill the enemy! Sigh … it's all thanks to you this time. When did master get such a fun mount? "
Dijiang flapped its wings excitedly. However, it didn't fly around and hovered in place.
She didn't move without permission.
Although Lian Xing had saved him, she had schemed against him. Moreover, she was a member of the White Tower. He had to be careful.
After waiting for a moment, Lu Zhou flew back from afar.
"Master."
Zhao Yue kneeled on Dijiang's back.
Lu Zhou glanced at Zhao Yue and asked, "Are you hurt?"
Zhao Yue remembered the time when the Black-And-White Guards attacked her. She did not know how she managed to dodge them. Now that she thought about it, she shuddered. In that situation, even a Nine or Ten-leaf cultivator would have been crushed into a pancake, let alone a Six-leaf cultivator.
"I'm fine … I've sinned. Please forgive me, master!" Zhao Yue did not dare to get up.
Lu Zhou looked down and saw Lian Xing lying on the ground.
He ignored Zhao Yue and asked, "Did the Black-And-White Guards escape?"
"They're heading north," Zhao Yue said softly.
Lu Zhou looked north and said, "Let's go back for now."
He reached out with the Devil Monk's Hand Imprint, landed on Lian Xing's body, and grabbed her.
At this moment, the weather in the north changed. Dark clouds rolled and thunder rumbled.
Lu Zhou, Zhao Yue, and the captured Lian Xing looked north.
Lian Xing frowned. She endured the pain and said, "Run … I think the people from the Black Tower are here."
"A runic passageway?" Lu Zhou asked, puzzled.
"This is the fluctuation of a runic passageway being activated. The Black Tower has many experts. They must've sent someone …" Before she could finish speaking, Lian Xing grunted and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Lu Zhou did not pity Lian Xing at all. He looked at her disdainfully and said, "Little girl, do you think I'm scared?"
"…" Lian Xing was rendered speechless.
As expected, several figures shot toward them from the north.
Lu Zhou glanced at them and frowned slightly.
For some reason, the scene of Wu Chao escaping appeared in his mind.
