BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1206 - Loyalty
Chapter 1206: Loyalty
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and looked at Qin Naihe. He was silent for a long time before he finally waved his sleeve.
Qin Naihe was very unhappy. When he saw Lu Zhou had agreed to let him leave, he finally sighed in relief. He bowed to everyone before he took Qin Moshang’s corpse away with him. In just a moment, he disappeared from everyone’s sight.
Zhu Honggong asked curiously, “Master, why did you let him go?”
“Master, this person doesn’t know how to appreciate favors. He doesn’t even know how to cherish this chance. Why did you let him go?”
Lu Zhou remained silent. He could not say that he did have the power of a Venerable Master, right? Moreover, he had depleted most of his divine power. Silence was still the best answer.
Si Wuya said with a smile, “If he had agreed immediately, I would’ve looked down on him.”
“I understand now. Master’s foresight is really good. He has no way out now. We don’t even know if he can leave after returning to the Qin clan, let alone finding the mystic microstones and mystic life grass in the Unknown Land. Venerable Master Qin might just cripple him. In the end, he can only join the Evil Sky Pavilion. Master is truly wise. I have to think for three years before I can catch up to master’s thoughts,” Zhu Honggong said.
Everyone. “…”
The first half of Zhu Honggong’s sentence made sense, but the second half was a little too much.
At this moment, Yu Zhenhai was feeling slightly anxious due to his obsessive-compulsive disorder. He touched his Jasper Saber and said, “His corpse is intact…”
Si Wuya smiled and said, “Elder Senior Brother, there’s no need to worry. Qin Moshang has a noble identity. Using witchcraft on a dead person is a great blasphemy. I believe Venerable Master Qin won’t allow it. Even if they resorted to witchcraft, the Evil Sky Pavilion isn’t afraid of witchcraft.”
Yu Zhenghai stopped stroking the Jasper Saber and gripped it before he stepped forward and patted Si Wuya’s shoulder heavily. “I really like your words, Old Seventh!”
“…”
Si Wuya endured the pain and continued to say, “Moreover, I bet Qin Naihe won’t return to the Qin clan. He won’t be able to avoid punishment for such a big matter. He really… has nowhere to go…”
Everyone nodded. When they looked at the blackened and charred ground again, they could not help but sigh.
…
It was just as Si Wuya had said.
Qin Naihe arrived on top of a huge ancient tree near the peak of a mountain. The diameter of the tree was nearly ten meters, and its branches and leaves were strong and lush.
Qin Naihe placed the corpse in the runic passage and straightened Qin Moshang’s clothes. Then, he stood up before he sighed. “In fact, I can be considered as half your brother and half your teacher. I wasn’t strict with you, resulting in your arrogant behavior. If I were more ruthless, perhaps, none of this would’ve happened.”
He sighed again and gently pressed his hand against the tree trunk.
The runic passage lit up, and with a flash of light, Qin Moshang disappeared.
However, Qin Naihe did not leave. He stood next to the runic passage and looked at it for a moment before he rushed to a destination unknown.
…
The Preservation Hall in Great Tang’s royal palace.
Si Wuya reported the happenings of the past three months, including the appearance of the imbalance phenomenon and the departure of the five brothers.
Lu Zhou’s expression did not change as he asked, “So the five brothers have left?”
Si Wuya nodded. “Perhaps, they aren’t used to a comfortable life after staying in the Unknown Land for so long.”
“Seventh Junior Brother, there’s no need to speak up for them. They think our Evil Sky Pavilion is too small and can’t accommodate important figures like them,” Mingshi Yin said sarcastically as he crossed his arms.
Yu Zhenghai said indifferently, “I heard Xia Changqiu say that these five brothers seem to disdain our strength and they seemed dissatisfied. However, they did not say anything so it’s not good to judge blindly. It doesn’t matter. When I was in charge of the Nether Sect, there were new members coming in and out every day. It would be abnormal if there aren’t one or two who left…”
“Eldest Senior Brother, you have a point.”
Everyone nodded.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded. “Let them go. However, they have to know that the Evil Sky Pavilion isn’t a place they can come and go as they please.”
“Understood.” Everyone bowed.
…
In the evening.
Lu Zhou began to meditate on the Heavenly Writing.
By the afternoon of the second day, the divine power had been fully replenished. This took half a day longer compared to the supreme mystic power. This was reasonable. After all, the speed of meditation and comprehension had not been greatly increased. Moreover, the limit of the divine power had also risen, and the strength had also grown several times stronger. With all these, it was quite good that it only increased by half a day to fully replenish the divine power.
“With the supreme mystic power, the palm strike only injured Qin Naihe slightly. However, the divine power could kill the ghost servants with 14 and 15 Birth Charts respectively. The divine power could even deal with Qin Naihe who had 16 Birth Charts. How would it fare against a Venerable Master?”
Lu Zhou kept trying to guess the extent of the divine power’s strength.
Based on what he knew so far, Venerable Masters could use the power of the Dao. They were undoubtedly powerful.
After a moment, Lu Zhou looked at his system interface.
Merit points: 255,060
The reward for killing two ghost servants and Qin Moshang was quite satisfactory.
Following that, he manifested his Nine Transformation Yin Yang avatar.
During the battle yesterday, he had depleted the divine power, but the blue avatar had supplied him with more divine power. There was no doubt the blue avatar could provide him with the divine power.
“Ding! Nine Transformation Yin Yang avatar. 5,000 years of life is needed to evolve it to the next form.”
‘5,000 years of life? What will happen when the blue avatar became a Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar?’
Lu Zhou did not want to think about this. Just thinking about it made him feel anxious about the future. Sometimes, being invincible could be troublesome as well.
Soon after, Lu Zhou’s mind wandered to the power of heaven and earth that he had seen at the White Tower Council.
“Lightning?”
Lan Xihe used 30,000 dao inscriptions to attract the lightning, which promoted the growth of Lu Zhou’s blue avatar. Perhaps, this method could be used as a reference.
Swoosh!
The doors to the Preservation Hall blew open again by a gust of strong wind.
Lu Zhou looked over. The weather was even worse than before.
“Imbalance?”
Lu Zhou flew up and hovered in the sky above the Preservation Hall as he observed the sky.
After Lu Zhou entered the hall again, he summoned Ying Zhao and Conch over.
Lu Zhou was intelligent and knew what his master wanted. As soon as it entered the hall, it began to make mumbling noises.
Conch said, “Master, it said that this is the imbalance phenomenon. Every time there’s an imbalance, chaos will descend. It heralds the time when mighty ones will fight each other. The fierce beasts are migrating to escape the chaos. It suggests that all of us migrate as well. If we can make a huge chariot we can travel to the eastern part of the Endless Ocean. Although we’ll have to deal with the sea beasts there, we can avoid the chaos that comes from the imbalance.”
Lu Zhou looked at Ying Zhao and asked, “Do you think I’ll avoid it?”
Fierce beasts and humans never thought the same way.
Now that the Evil Sky Pavilion had made enemies out of Venerable Masters Qin and Ye, they would definitely start a hunt.
Ying Zhao continued to mumble.
Conch said, “It said there’s nothing we can do about it. It’s been more than three months. With human nature, there’ll be chaos soon.”
At this moment, Meng Changdong hurried into the hall. He bowed and said, “Pavilion Master, there’s news from the northern region of the black lotus domain. Green lotus cultivators have been spotted, but they didn’t kill anyone. Apart from that, red and golden lotus cultivators have also sighted.”
