At least he had some conscience.
Lu Zhou descended the steps with his hands on his back and made his way to the southern pavilion.
Zhao Yue hurriedly followed, the two of them walking one after the other. After exiting the east pavilion, Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng respectfully waited outside.
They went to the South Pavilion together.
He had not returned for a long time. Golden Court Mountain was lush with trees that pierced through the sky, almost reaching the barrier.
It surrounded the four palaces, giving Golden Court Mountain a natural air.
He arrived at the southern pavilion.
He happened to see Shen Xi and Li Xiaomo who had finished packing their luggage.
The two of them took off their armor and changed into ordinary people's robes … but they stood very straight. It was obvious that they were cultivators.
"Greetings, Pavilion Master." Shen Xi and Li Xiaomo bowed simultaneously.
Lu Zhou said, "Trying to leave?"
"I don't want to implicate the Evil Sky Pavilion. I thought I'd be able to remove the black lotus brand, but I didn't expect the brand to be so unique. Perhaps, this is our fate … Hence, we bid farewell to you, Pavilion Master," Shen Xi said.
Lu Zhou's voice was calm as he raised his voice and said, "You're quite bold."
Shen Xi and Li Xiaomo's hearts jolted, and they hurriedly knelt down on one knee, "This subordinate knows his mistake …"
"I'll make this clear first. Once you're in the Evil Sky Pavilion, I'm in charge of everything, including your life. Do you think the Evil Sky Pavilion is a place where you can come and go as you please? "Lu Zhou said as he looked at Shen Xi.
He had to make this clear.
Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng thought that the two of them had a conscience and left because they did not want to implicate the Evil Sky Pavilion.
He had almost forgotten the Evil Sky Pavilion's rules.
"Your subordinates know their wrongs. Please punish us severely, Pavilion Master." The two of them lowered their heads and looked at the ground.
Pan Zhong was taken aback. A heavy punishment?
This attitude.
A powerful figure of a thousand worlds was behaving so obediently in front of the Pavilion Master.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "Since the two of you are pardoned, I'll spare you this time."
"Thank you, Pavilion Master!"
Shen Xi and Li Xiaomo said in unison.
"Let me have a look at the black lotus," Lu Zhou said.
"Yes."
Shen Xi was the first to take off his shirt, revealing the black lotus brand on his chest.
Compared to before, the black lotus mark was indeed much thicker, and it seemed to be swollen, as if someone had redrawn it with a brush.
It was indeed heavier.
"Don't move."
Lu Zhou raised his palm and pushed it forward. A blue lotus emerged from his palm.
He silently recited the Heavenly Book's healing ability.
Ever since he had evolved into the Tai Xuan Power, he had not used any healing mystical abilities. He did not know how effective it would be, so he decided to use it to practice.
Seeing the blue lotus appear … Shen Xi and Li Xiaomo were inwardly shocked. In the previous battle, they had only seen the blue light appear, and they had thought that it was some kind of weapon. Now that they were looking at it from a close distance, they realized that it was indeed a blue lotus. How could they not be shocked?
The overlord of the blue lotus that had appeared in the world of the golden lotus!
It was no wonder the Evil Sky Pavilion was so mysterious.
The blue lotus landed on Shen Xi's body.
A refreshing sensation swept through Shen Xi's body, causing his body to tremble.
The power of the Taixuan Power permeated his entire body, surging toward his eight extraordinary meridians and his dantian.
As if it had met its nemesis, the power of the black lotus mark retreated and shrank …
The entire process lasted for about a quarter of an hour before the power of the blue lotus disappeared.
Lu Zhou looked at the black lotus brand before Shen Xi and could not help but frown slightly. "What a stubborn, corrosive power."
The black lotus mark did not disappear, but it had dimmed by half.
Naturally, Lu Zhou was not satisfied with this outcome.
However, for Shen Xi, this was a blessing amidst the misfortune.
"It worked?! The black lotus is gone?! "Shen Xi was overjoyed. He was so excited that he could not control himself.
"It's not completely gone. Let's do it again," Lu Zhou said.
"Understood."
This time, he was even more obedient. He stood still.
Lu Zhou pushed out another blue lotus.
This time, he used more of the Taixuan Power.
The azure blue lotus was like a cloudless sky … The blue light was like a blue crystal. Light lingered around it, magnificent and mysterious.
When the blue lotus floated toward Shen Xi, he seemed to see the universe and the starry sky.
The starry sky was clear and boundless.
At the same time, it seemed to contain an undefeatable, vast, and profound power.
The blue lotus struck the black lotus mark.
Crack!
The black lotus mark was instantly destroyed.
…
Inside a hall in the pitch-black black tower.
An old man in his sixties with disheveled hair grunted. His eyes widened as he raised his hand and tapped a few spots before him. He said in a deep voice, "Someone broke my black lotus mark?"
His eyes were filled with shock.
Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"How's this possible?"
His brows were tightly knitted together.
"Shen Xi … It's no wonder you dared to betray the black tower."
The old man folded his palms and changed his hand gestures.
A black lotus appeared above his palms. When the black lotus flew into the air, it shattered and vanished.
"Don't let me see you again."
…
Meanwhile.
Lu Zhou was about to remove the black lotus mark on Li Xiaomo.
Li Xiaomo had just removed his clothes when the black lotus mark faded at a speed visible to the naked eye. Then, it vanished.
"Uh …"
Li Xiaomo was slightly stunned.
Shen Xi, however, sneered and said, "He suffered a loss and took the initiative to remove the brand."
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded.
This technique was similar to witchcraft marks. It could track and locate someone from a thousand miles away. However, when it was broken, it could easily backfire.
Only a fool would not remove the mark when one knew it was broken.
Shen Xi and Li Xiaomo exchanged a look. Then, they fell to their knees solemnly and said, "Thank you for saving our lives, Pavilion Master. From this day onward, our lives belong to you, Pavilion Master. "
Lu Zhou said, "Remember your promise."
The two of them no longer spoke. Instead, they raised their palms to their foreheads and respectfully kowtowed. Their foreheads touched the back of their hands.
"Stand up and speak."
"Understood."
The two of them rose to their feet.
Lu Zhou saw that their loyalty had increased by 20%.
This was within reason.
At the same time, he confirmed their cultivation bases.
Name: Shen Xi
Identity: Great circle human
Realm: Mysterious Heaven
…
Name: Li Xiaomo
Identity: Great circle human
Realm: Mysterious Heaven
…
The labels caught Lu Zhou's attention.
Great circle must be the general name of the black lotus.
Fortunately, he did not know much about the black lotus. He could learn more about it from Shen Xi.
"Pavilion Master, I can set up the Formation and retrieve Miss Sixth's Great Void aura. It's best to retrieve the Great Void aura as soon as possible. A complete Great Void aura is greatly beneficial to one's cultivation. We shouldn't waste any time, "Shen Xi volunteered.
"Are you confident?" Lu Zhou asked.
"Yes." Shen Xi said, "There have been many conflicts between the black tower and white tower over Birth Chart Beasts. Some Birth Chart Hearts can only be refined and extracted immediately after they're damaged. The two are interlinked, and I'm experienced. "
Li Xiaomo smiled and said, "You might not know this, Pavilion Master … Big Brother Shen is second to none when it comes to extracting energy and Birth Chart power. If he claims to be second, no one would dare claim to be first. Sometimes, it's not always possible to kill a Birth Chart Beast. Once the Birth Chart Heart is destroyed, it must be extracted immediately. "
Lu Zhou glanced at the two of them.
He did not expect there to be so much to learn about a mere Birth Chart Heart. 'Did I pick up a treasure?'
Shen Xi did not dare to brag. He said humbly, "Little Mo, don't be presumptuous in front of the pavilion master. It's just a small trick. I don't dare to claim to be the best. "
Li Xiaomo lowered his head.
Lu Zhou nodded slightly. "A wise master's office should be used to its strengths and not its weaknesses. It's a good thing that you have this place. If you can do a good job, there's no harm in bragging. "
"I'll do my best."
Shen Xi said, "However … I'm afraid that Lian Xing won't live."
