Chapter 743: A Mere Elder Has No Right To Speak To Me
Five days passed in just a blink of an eye.
In the Thousand Willow Monastery.
Lu Zhou opened his eyes. He had finally completely recovered the Heavenly Writing’s extraordinary power. He raised his hand and looked at his palms. He felt as though he had aged further. He flipped his palm around and shattered a Reversal Card.
...
Near Thousand Willow Mountain, the vitality energy in the forest gathered as though it was being pulled into a whirlpool in the ocean.
The unique surge of power caught the attention of the Thousand Willow Monastery disciples.
...
In the Fair Hall.
Xia Changqiu, the Monastery Master of the Thousand Willow Monastery, hurried out of the hall. When he was outside, he looked up and saw the vitality energy above Lu Zhou’s courtyard.
At this moment, Tian Buji had also hurried over, clearly shocked. “Monastery Master, this is...”
Xia Changqiu frowned. He shook his head as he said, “The old senior is capable of mobilizing such powerful vitality energy?”
Tian Buji said, “I’ve never seen anything like this before as well. Could this be a special ability that golden lotus cultivators possess?”
As the two conversed, Little Yuan’er and Conch arrived outside the hall, holding hands.
Xia Changqiu disregarded his own status as he hurried over to the two young girls. He asked with a smile, “May I know what your master is doing?”
Little Yuan’er turned to look at the sky above her master’s courtyard. She found it boring so she said, “You’re making a big fuss out of nothing. My master does this all the time.”
“...” Xia Changqiu had no retort.
...
Lu Zhou looked at the system dashboard.
Remaining life: 219,470 days.
“I managed to reverse 600 days...” His expression remained unchanged despite being satisfied with the 600 days.
Lu Zhou could feel the changes in his new surroundings. The Primal Qi and the vitality energy in the red lotus domain seemed richer and more powerful.
Nonetheless, he felt slightly suffocated. It seemed like the people in the red lotus domain really liked the color red. Everyone was a red lotus cultivator. The flowers, totems, and ornaments were red. All he could see was the color red. He found it disturbing.
When Lu Zhou finally emerged from the room, the Thousand Willow Monastery elders were already waiting for him in the courtyard.
“Old senior, the monastery master has prepared the flying chariot and is waiting for you.”
“Alright.” Lu Zhou descended the steps and exited the courtyard.
Soon enough, he arrived in front of the Fair Hall.
Little Yuan’er and Conch ran over to him immediately. “Master.”
“Old senior.” Xia Changqiu and Tian Buji bowed at the same time.
The disciples from the Thousand Willow Monastery were almost all here. They lined up at the sides. Ji Fengxing and Wuwu stood at the lead.
Lu Zhou walked to the side of the flying chariot parked on the plaza. It was slightly too crude for his taste, and it was not very spacious. However, it was better than nothing. He did not know when his mounts were going to arrive anyway. Who knew if they had lost their way?
“Master... Can we go now? I can’t wait!” Little Yuan’er said excitedly as she and Conch boarded the chariot.
“Old senior, after you... I’ll personally man the helm today,” Xia Changqiu said respectfully as he walked toward the flying chariot.
Lu Zhou looked at the crowd as he boarded the flying chariot. After he entered the chariot, he said, “It’s enough for both of you to lead the way. The others won’t be of any use even if they come with us.”
The elder looked awkward. What hurtful words!
“As you wish, old senior.” Xia Changqiu and Tian Buji boarded the chariot.
Yu Shangrong leaped onto the deck at the back of the flying chariot.
Little Yuan’er said to Yu Shangrong, “Since Eldest Senior Brother isn’t around, shouldn’t you man the helm?”
“...” Lu Zhou knocked Little Yuan’er’s head. “Watch your manners. Your Eldest Senior Brother is the master of a sect, you know? He has 100,000 members under his command.”
Little Yuan’er rubbed her head and said, “I’ve spoken wrongly... but... it’s the truth though.”
Xia Changqiu. “...” Initially, he thought he was showing a grand gesture by offering to man the helm for the old man. After all, he was the Monastery Master of the Thousand Willow Monastery. However, when he heard the little girl’s words, he was taken aback. If the old man’s disciple had such a high status, what kind of person was the old man in the golden lotus domain?
...
The flying chariot slowly rose into the air and flew in the southwestern direction toward Jiannan Circuit.
Lu Zhou looked at the lofty mountains and dense forests along the way. Indeed, the appearance of the terrain was similar to Great Yan. The vegetation was lush as well. They encountered several beasts along the way, but they were swiftly dealt with by Tian Buji and Xia Changqiu.
...
Half a day later.
Xia Changqiu saw the familiar round area from his position at the helm. From this altitude, it seemed like a black round disc. In truth, it was formed by buildings. Nine buildings were built around a central structure, forming a unique defensive array.
“Old senior, the Ninth Temple is up ahead...” Although Xia Changqiu was a monastery master, he could not help but feel nervous now that he had arrived in such a huge sect.
Lu Zhou opened his eyes. He walked to the helm and looked down with his hands on his back. “Daoist Eight Gates Formation?”
“You’re truly knowledgeable, old senior. Indeed, this is the Eight Gates Formation. It has been modified into the Nine Gates Formation. The nine main halls are also called the nine gates.” Xia Changqiu was filled with awe as he looked around.
The flying chariot drew closer and closer.
Lu Zhou saw the city gates. Many sects preferred to base themselves near mountains. The Ninth Temple was one of the rare ones that built its base on a plain.
At this moment, two disciples flew over on their swords from the city’s gate. They barred the flying chariot’s path and asked, “Who goes there?”
Xia Changqiu said loudly, “Xia Changqiu, the Monastery Master of the Thousand Willow Monastery, requests to meet Elder Zhu.”
“The Thousand Willow Monastery?” the disciple said, “Elder Zhu is cultivating in seclusion. Please turn back and return after a month.”
Xia Changqiu was a monastery master, after all. He, naturally, knew how to deal with small fries who guarded the door. He said, “Please notify him. This is an urgent matter. Elder Zhu will surely meet me. You won’t lose anything by notifying him, but if you didn’t, Elder Zhu will blame you for it.” As he spoke, he tossed something out.
The object glittered as it landed in the disciple’s hand. He looked at the object in his hand and smiled in satisfaction. He pocketed it and said, “A moment please.”
However, as the disciple was about to turn around, Lu Zhou called out tonelessly, “Wait.”
“What else?” The disciple on the sword was puzzled.
“A mere elder has no right to talk to me. Tell Zhu Xuan... to send Sikong Beichen out to meet me,” Lu Zhou said flatly.
Xia Changqiu and Tian Buji. “...”
The two people from the Thousand Willow Monastery could not help but shudder. This was the worst outcome! They knew Sikong Beichen would easily meet guests. They could have settled the matters quietly, but now... they felt like crying.
The disciple on the sword frowned. He said, “Even if the Flying Star House’s Master is here, he doesn’t even have the right to meet the temple master, let alone the Monastery Master of the Thousand Willow Monastery. Please leave...”
Lu Zhou had expected as much. He waved his arm.
From behind Lu Zhou, Yu Shangrong who saw his master’s gesture knew his master’s meaning. With blurry movements, he appeared in the air and said tonelessly, “If you knew who my master is, you’d know how foolish you sounded.”
Bzzt! Bzzt Bzzt!
The Longevity Sword vibrated.
At this moment, the sound of the flute rang in the air.
Conch blew on her Lantian Jade Flute. Nobody knew what suddenly spurred her on, but her melodious notes spread into the surroundings. The Primal Qi flowing in the air were like wisps of vivid red smoke that formed energy.
The others turned back to look.
Xia Changqiu and Tian Buji were shocked. From the beginning, they did not pay much attention to this little girl.
Conch played the flute calmly. It was a light and pleasant tune. The red energy surged out to the horizon like a gentle stream. Since she had begun to cultivate, she was now capable of controlling her tune. She condensed her Qi into energy that blended together harmoniously and triggered the beasts in the vicinity.
The beasts swarmed out of their hiding places and flew over in a majestic manner. There were so many beasts that it seemed they were capable of covering the sky.
From Ninth Temple’s main gates, a person flew over. He was shocked when he saw the red energy in the air. “The elder has approved. Follow me...”
