Chapter 76: The Mystery of Ye Tianxin

EndlessFantasy Translation

Ye Tianxin's head was lowered. Due to her prolonged stay in the cave, she appeared listless. Most of the time, she appeared unconscious. Although her cultivation base had been disabled by her master, her physical constitution was good. The cold from the Cave of Reflection was not enough to take her life.

Out of curiosity, Mingshi Yin approached Ye Tianxin before helping her up. However, as soon as he touched her, he almost pushed her away out of shock. He discovered her skin was currently as white as jade, and her hair was much whiter than before as well. Without her cultivation base, it was inevitable that her body would deteriorate. However, it should not have deteriorated to this extent. He furrowed his brows as he thought to himself, 'What's happening? In any case, this isn't normal.'

Zhao Yue asked, "Fourth Senior Brother, what's wrong with Junior Sister Tianxin?"

"I'm not sure… I've never seen anything like this. She doesn't seem to be hurt, and this isn't a residual effect from losing her cultivation base. Look closely…" Mingshi Yin motioned toward Ye Tianxin's skin with his eyes. There were no wrinkles on her skin. It was smooth just like a piece of white jade. He was also at a loss as to why she was unconscious.

"Junior Sister Zhao Yue, please look after her. I'll try to beg for mercy from master."

"Senior brother… Junior Sister Tianxin has committed such a grave mistake, what if master no longer cares about her?" Zhao Yue was slightly worried. She had a feeling there was something else afoot apart from her cultivation base that had been disabled. She could not help but feel that it was dangerous.

Mingshi Yin did not waste any time and shot out of the Cave of Reflection. When he saw some of the female cultivators from the Derived Moon Palace hurrying about, he called out to one of them, "Prepare a stretcher…"

"M-mister Fourth! Why do you need a stretcher?"

"Just go get it. Why're you asking so many questions?" Mingshi Yin did not have the time to explain himself to them.

Mingshi Yin's words made the female cultivators nervous.

The female cultivators from the Derived Moon Palace had been taking care of Golden Court Mountain lately. Apart from repairing the damaged buildings, they stayed in the Evil Sky Pavilion's west pavilion. Although they felt the villains of Evil Sky Pavilion were eccentric, it was fine as long as they were able to keep their lives intact. They, naturally, carried out Mingshi Yin's order.

…

In no time at all, Mingshi Yin arrived at the great hall of the Evil Sky Pavilion. When he saw his master and Little Yuan'er, he quickly made his way to them.

Lu Zhou frowned. 'So, Old Fourth isn't satisfied at all…'

Mingshi Yin had no time to think about other matters. He quickly kneeled on the ground and said, "Master… Junior Sister Tianxin is dying!" That was all he said. He did not plead for mercy nor did he badmouth Ye Tianxin. He only waited silently for his master's reply.

Mingshi Yin did not understand his master's thoughts. Did his master intend to torture Ye Tianxin and make her life a living hell? Or was he only seizing this chance to punish her harshly? If it was the former, no good would come out of him pleading for mercy on her behalf. If it was the latter, there might still be some hope left. Since he was not certain of his master's intention, he did not dare to act recklessly.

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "Has she thought things through in recent times?"

"Well…" Mingshi Yin hesitated, caught in a dilemma. He visited Ye Tianxin frequently in the Cave of Reflection. Her stubbornness had exceeded his expectations. She had never once reflected on her actions.

Little Yuan'er only watched, not daring to speak up.

Lu Zhou shook his head. He searched his memories for information about Ye Tianxin, but he found nothing. He did not make a decision instantly. Instead, he left the Evil Sky Pavilion with his hands behind his back.

When Mingshi Yin saw this, he was overjoyed. He hastily got up to his feet and followed Lu Zhou.

…

On the mountain.

Lu Zhou saw the female cultivators from the Derived Moon Palace gathered together as they prepared a stretcher. They kneeled in unison as soon as he appeared. He ignored them and made his way to the Cave of Reflection.

The others had no choice but to follow Lu Zhou.

When the female cultivators from the Derived Moon Palace saw Lu Zhou and the others going to the Cave of Reflection, they kneeled again and pleaded for mercy.

Without waiting for Lu Zhou to reprimand them, Mingshi Yin spoke in his deep voice, "Don't cause trouble! Three or four of you stay back. The others can go back to their tasks!" He had wanted to tell them to get lost, but he did not think it was appropriate for him to lose his temper when his master was present.

…

Lu Zhou walked into the Cave of Reflection, and Little Yuan'er followed closely behind.

"Greetings, master." Zhao Yue endured the cold and kneeled to greet her master.

Lu Zhou waved his hand in reply before walking to the other corner of the cave. He saw Ye Tianxian leaning against an ice-cold wall, and her head was hung at an awkward angle. Her hair obscured her face.

Just by looking at Ye Tianxin's shoulder, he knew what was happening. Skin as white as jade. He brushed her hair to the side and frowned when he saw her face.

Little Yuan'er covered her mouth in shock and took a step back. She had never seen anything like this before. She asked in confusion, "What happened to senior sister?"

Lu Zhou merely frowned, he did not seem surprised. He was calm as though he had expected this day to come.

In fact, Lu Zhou had been more shocked when he had met Ye Tianxin for the first time. However, due to the circumstances back then, he did not have time to ponder about the matter. When he had first met her, he had felt she was pure and unsullied, she had principles and was incorruptible even though she had grown up in mud. More importantly, the system dashboard displayed a completely different notification.

Name: Ye Tianxin

Race: Bai

Cultivation base: Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm (disabled)

Hatred: 40%

'Her hatred level has decreased,' Lu Zhou thought to himself. The main point was not her hatred, but her race.

Lu Zhou had noticed this during their first meeting. He knew people from Bai Nation had white complexion and white hair. They were like white jade. However, that was all he knew about her since he had no memories of her. Therefore, he had no choice but to keep her confined in the Cave of Reflection.

"Master…" Mingshi Yin cupped his hands again.

Lu Zhou's expression was indifferent as he said, "There's no need to worry. She won't die. Keep her in the south pavilion. I have questions for her."

Mingshi Yin nodded. He quickly called two female cultivators from the Derived Moon Palace over to carry Ye Tianxin out.

Zhao Yue was left alone in the cave.

Lu Zhou glanced at Zhao Yue's forehead that still bore the mark of a golden lotus. He called out, "Zhao Yue."

"Yes, master."

"This is the Evil Sky Pavilion, it's also the only place where you can stay alive. This witchcraft Restriction doesn't just seal your cultivation base, it'll expose your whereabouts as well," Lu Zhou said.

"Please master, have mercy on me and help me undo this Restriction," Zhao Yue said as she fell to her knees immediately.

"Do you think that I can undo the Restriction?" Lu Zhou asked.

Zhao Yue gave it some thought before answering, "I don't know."

"When you've sorted out your thoughts, we'll talk more about witchcraft," Lu Zhou said before he left. He saw that Zhao Yue's loyalty was only about 30. That was far from enough.

Moreover, this was Lu Zhou's first time dealing with witchcraft. It would be easier for him to kill someone. A Deadly Strike Card would have done the trick. However, item cards could not be used to undo witchcraft spells. Since he was still uncertain about Zhao Yue, it was best to leave her in the Cave of Reflection for now.

After leaving the Cave of Reflection, Lu Zhou made his way to the south pavilion. This was where his nine disciples once lived.

Little Yuan'er and Mingshi Yin quickly caught up to Lu Zhou.

Little Yuan'er asked, "Master, how did Senior Sister Tianxin end up in that state?"

Chapter 77: Binding Cage

EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Zhou did not reply to Little Yuan'er's question. Instead, he waved his hand and went into the room alone. The others waited outside since they did not dare to follow him.

The few female cultivators from Derived Moon Palace kneeled at the door, worried sick.

Duanmu Sheng, Pan Zhong, and Zhou Jifeng came over when they heard about the matter.

Duanmu Sheng dragged his chains along as he made his way over, but they did not seem to impede his speed. It seemed as though his wounds were almost completely healed. He asked, "How's junior sister doing?"

Mingshi Yin shook his head and said, "Things aren't looking too good."

Duanmu Sheng frowned and asked, "Old Fourth, what happened?" In other words, he was asking about what happened between Lu Zhou and Ye Tianxin.

As soon as Duanmu Sheng finished speaking, everyone turned to look at Mingshi Yin.

Mingshi Yin sighed and said, "All I know is Sixth Junior Sister was brought back from the Fish Dragon Village, south of Great Yan's river. Ever since then, she's been staying on the mountain." He did not dare to divulge much information about his master. He shuddered just thinking about the consequences of speaking too much.

Pan Zhong chimed in, "South of Great Yan's river… That's the territory of Yun, Tian, and Luo Sect."

As soon as the three sects were mentioned, a stifling atmosphere seemed to descend on the place.

However, Little Yuan'er clearly did not notice the strange atmosphere. She said in confusion, "Fourth Senior Brother, Senior Sister, I don't understand…"

Mingshi Yin said in a hushed tone, "All the lands under the heavens belong to His Majesty. Some years ago, there were Other Tribes near the Measure Heaven River. They were constantly fighting with cultivators. Shortly after master brought Junior Sister back, the Fish Dragon Village vanished."

Duanmu Sheng frowned. "So, does this mean that master…"

Mingshi Yin started and quickly interjected, "Shh!"

As soon as Mingshi Yin hushed Duanmu Sheng, a deep voice rang from the room. "Have you said enough?"

Duanmu Sheng and Mingshi Yin's hearts sank. 'We're dead.'

"Slap each other 30 times and reflect on your actions in the Cave of Reflection for three days." Lu Zhou said in a tone that was neither heavy nor light.

Duanmu Sheng and Mingshi Yin felt like crying but no tears came out.

Mingshi Yin kept shooting looks at Duanmu Sheng.

The others did not dare to speak up on their behalf. They did not even dare to breathe heavily.

A boneheaded teammate could do more harm than a formidable opponent.

Duanmu Sheng and Mingshi Yin could only bow toward the room with a gloomy expression on their faces. "We accept our punishment."

Zhou Jifeng and Pan Zhong used to be proud and boastful. However, since they arrived on Golden Court Mountain, they had been forced to become humble and to keep a low profile. Being nosy here came with its own consequences.

…

Inside the room.

Ye Tianxin had regained her consciousness after leaving the Cave of Reflection. Since her cultivation base had been disabled, she could not heal her wounds. She did well for being able to hold on until now. She opened her eyes in a daze, the room was quite bright. As soon as she saw Lu Zhou, she instinctively shrunk back.

Upon seeing this, Lu Zhou was speechless. Among his nine disciples, Little Yuan'er was the only one who did not fear him.

"M-master?" Ye Tianxin called out, a hint of disbelief could be heard in her voice. It was as though she could not believe her master would send her to a room.

Lu Zhou's expression was cold as he shook his head and said, "I don't have a disciple like you."

Ye Tianxin had instinctively addressed Lu Zhou as master. She realized she had misspoken as soon as she heard Lu Zhou's words. She looked at him and stubbornly said, "I deserve to be in this condition."

"Yes, you do," Lu Zhou replied.

"…" Ye Tianxin was speechless. She did not know how she should react. She did not dare to retort with a stronger language, afraid that she would drag her sisters in Derived Moon Palace into this matter.

The room was deathly silent for quite a while.

When Ye Tianxin recalled what her Fourth Senior Brother said in the cave, she hesitated for a moment before she asked, "Since you're capable of annihilating the entire Fish Dragon Village, why didn't you kill me as well?" A hint of derision could be heard in her voice.

Lu Zhou was bewildered when he heard this. After all, he had no recollection of annihilating the entire Fish Dragon Village. He saw Ye Tianxin had gotten emotional as she spoke. Apart from that, her hatred had increased slightly from 40%. It was obvious her hatred stemmed from his apparent destruction of the village. He could not be certain if he was the culprit behind that. However, based on the memories he had access to, Ji Tiandao was not the type who would slaughter innocent people even though he was the most powerful villain in the world, outrageous with his actions, and strict and harsh toward his disciples.

Lu Zhou sighed. His lost memories were proving to be a problem. 'Why did I lose them? Is this an effect of transmigrating?' He knew there was no point thinking about this matter too much, he could only slowly look for the answers. After a moment, he looked at Ye Tianxin and asked, "Did you see me destroying the village?"

Ye Tianxin was slightly stunned, her expression was not right. Finally, she bit out a reply, "It's the same as personally witnessing it."

Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "The ones who know me best under the heavens are the nine of you. Have I ever acted in secret?"

Ye Tianxin was speechless.

Indeed. Lu Zhou was the greatest villain the world had ever known. He was number one on every blacklist. Did he need to hide or cover up his actions?

"Ye Tianxin," Lu Zhou called out softly, causing Ye Tianxin to shudder inwardly, "If you ever try to slander me…" He did not finish his sentence, leaving it up to Ye Tianxin's imagination.

Lu Zhou's meaning was clear. He was no longer the old Ji Tiandao. Although he did what he wanted, he would not allow anyone to slander him.

"Ding! Disciplining Ye Tianxin. Obtained 100 merit points."

Lu Zhou waved his sleeve and walked out of the room. He did not bring up Ye Tianxin's identity as a Bai nor did he press her about it.

Ye Tianxin was stunned. At this moment, she heard the pleas from her sisters from Derived Moon Palace outside the room.

Unfortunately, Lu Zhou was unmoved. He returned to the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Little Yuan'er was trembling with fear along the way. She did not even dare to speak. After they entered the Evil Sky Pavilion, she quickly brought her master a cup of tea in an attempt to appease him. She said, "Master, please don't be angry. If there's no other way, I'll kill that little traitor for you."

Lu Zhou was not angry. On the contrary, he was calm. He even felt cheerful. At the very least, he had gained some basic information. "Yuan'er, send word to Jiang Aijian."

Little Yuan'er nodded and said, "I'll grab a pen and papers."

"Tell him to investigate the incident of Measure Heaven River's Fish Dragon Village. Tell him to get back to me as soon as possible," Lu Zhou said before he returned to the hidden chamber.

Initially, Lu Zhou had planned to continue reading the Heavenly Writing. However, when he recalled how his Brahman Sea opened up his eight meridians, he felt conflicted. He did not expect his avatar would restrict his cultivation base. He had thought it was a good thing that he was able to directly purchase his avatar. After all, this meant he would not encounter any bottleneck when cultivating. Many cultivators spent their entire lives trying to break through a bottleneck but to no avail.

Currently, Lu Zhou did not have enough merit points as well.

"210 points."

'What can I do with these meager merit points?'

"Lucky draw."

"Ding! Spent 50 merit points. Gained Binding Cage x3."

"Binding Cage: 30% chance of shackling the target."

Lu Zhou's eyes brightened. The system was suddenly being kind to him. He finally had a stroke of good luck.

"Lucky draw."

"Ding! Spent 50 merit points. Thanks for trying. Luck +1."

As expected. He had a bad feeling about this.

He chose the lucky draw three times consecutively, and he was only thanked for his efforts. In the end, he was left with 10 merit points and 3 additional luck points. 'Just as well. There's no need for me to keep drawing.'

Lu Zhou turned his attention to the Binding Cage. "30% chance. Isn't that too low?" He could just imagine how embarrassing and humiliating it would be if the world's greatest villain missed when trying to capture his target.

Chapter 78: Leader of the Black Knights

EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Zhou opened the Heavenly Writing's interface and prepared to study it again. He had connected his Brahman Sea's eight meridians, but they were not true Brahman Sea's eight meridians. All he had were drainages and not the water source. His avatar, the Mighty Four Quadrants, had restricted his intake of Primal Qi. Moreover, he had no other way to quickly earn merit points. He had no other choice but to study the Heavenly Writing.

After a while, Little Yuan'er's voice rang from the other side of the door. "Master, I've written to Jiang Aijian."

Lu Zhou did not reply. He was confident in leaving the investigation to Jiang Aijian. Suddenly, he remembered he had to give Jiang Aijian a sword or two as a reward. Thinking about this, he shook his head. It was not easy to find a sword that was not inferior to the male and female double swords.

Lu Zhou looked around his surroundings before his eyes fell on a saber that Unnamed had scratched previously.

"Hm? A hole?" Lu Zhou suddenly noticed a hole on the saber. He was shocked by this discovery. 'Is this caused by Unnamed?' He removed the saber from the rack and inspected it. The saber's quality was good. Although it was a mediocre weapon, it was forged from good metal. It would not break easily.

Lu Zhou thought to himself in disbelief, 'Unnamed is so powerful? Well, seeing is believing!'

Lu Zhou raised his right arm and Unnamed materialized in his hand. He wielded it and slashed at the saber without any hesitation. Then, he inspected Unnamed and discovered it was undamaged. However, the same could not be said for the saber. He discovered a fine crack on the saber where Unnamed had landed.

Lu Zhou was truly shocked. He did not think Unnamed was useless, but he did not think it was especially powerful as well. Who knew Unnamed would be able to damage the high-quality saber? He felt satisfied. 'This isn't junk, it's a treasure!' He quickly waved his arm again, and Unnamed disappeared into thin air.

Perhaps, Unnamed had improved along with his cultivation base. No matter how weak his Brahman Sea's eight meridians were, they were still much more powerful compared to the Sense Condensing realm.

Lu Zhou continued his search for another sword.

Many weapons on the rack were covered with a layer of dust due to neglect.

Lu Zhou waved his arms slightly, using Primal Qi to clear the dust.

"What's this…" Lu Zhou discovered a spear with strange designs. It was roughly thirteen feet long. Its tip and pole were forged from pure steel. A dragon wound around the pole.

Lu Zhou gripped the spear, shocked by its weight. Its weight was about 100 catties. Fortunately, this weight was nothing to a cultivator who had gone through Body Tempering.

"Ding! Recovered the weapon, the Overlord Spear. Recommended owner: Duanmu Sheng."

Lu Zhou muttered skeptically, "Duanmu Sheng?"

The Overlord Spear was huge and heavy. It looked majestic and imposing. Indeed. It was not suited for Lu Zhou's old bones. He much preferred Unnamed. Moreover, Unnamed could transform into various types of weapons. It was undoubtedly more useful.

After a while, Lu Zhou discovered a sword lying on the floor in a corner. Treasures usually appeared insignificant. He picked the sword up and pulled it out of its scabbard as the sound of metal against metal rang in the air.

"What a good sword!" Lu Zhou exclaimed. His words were still echoing in the room when…

Crack!

The sword broke.

Lu Zhou coughed in embarrassment, and his face was flushed red as he tossed the 'treasure' aside. It was as brittle as glass. It shattered at the slightest touch. Why was a defective weapon stored in the hidden chamber?

Lu Zhou suddenly lost all interest in the weapons inside the room. He did not have the time to inspect every single weapon. He decided to get some of his disciples to sort the weapons out in the future. Jiang Aijian's sword would have to wait.

Shortly after, Lu Zhou returned to his spot and sat cross-legged before he began to cultivate.

…

The next day, early in the morning.

Little Yuan'er skipped and hopped as she made her way to the Evil Sky Pavilion. "Master, that shameless person has replied."

Lu Zhou looked at Little Yuan'er emotionlessly and said, "Read it for me."

Little Yuan'er cleared her throat. She mimicked Jiang Aijian's way of speech as she said, "First, nothing can be found from the cultivation world about the destruction of Fish Dragon Village at the Crossing Heaven River for now. However, there's something in the palace's archives and the local archives. Investigations show that the culprit is Ji Tiandao. That's you. Second, there are signs that the records have been tampered with. The most suspicious person at the moment is an officer of the Black Knights, Fan Xiuwen. The Black Knights are under the emperor's direct command. They're a special squad of Imperial Guards. I'll add two additional pieces of information here. First, nobody believed Zhao Shuo when he told them about your true identity. Second, please don't forget about my sword, old senior! Hahaha!" She even mimicked his laughter, sounding unnatural.

Jiang Aijian was truly talented. He managed to get to the heart of the matter in such a short time.

Lu Zhou muttered, "Black Knights… Fan Xiuwen?"

"Master… is this person powerful?"

Lu Zhou did not respond to Little Yuan'er's question. He did not seem to have any memories of this person. Well, he must be a minor character. After a while, he said, "Bring Old Fourth here."

"Oh." Little Yuan'er was slightly puzzled, but she still obediently carried out her order.

A short while later, Mingshi Yin ran over with an ingratiating smile on his face. Anything was better than having to stay in the Cave of Reflection. He did not want to spend a second longer in there. He respectfully saluted Lu Zhou. "Greetings, master!"

Lu Zhou said nonchalantly, "I have a mission for you."

When Mingshi Yin heard this, he was overjoyed. He quickly said, "All you need to do is ask, master!"

Lu Zhou asked, "Do you know the leader of the Black Knights, Fan Xiuwen?"

"Not really… He seems to come from a family of officials. He doesn't have much to do with the cultivation world."

"Inform him that I want to meet him." Lu Zhou's voice was light.

"Understood!" Mingshi Yin accepted the order reverently. He seemed to be reinvigorated! 'I like this! There's nothing better than a simple mission like this!' He descended the mountain like an arrow that had been shot out.

As soon as Mingshi Yin left, Little Yuan'er saw a messenger bird above the Evil Sky Pavilion.

"A letter!" Little Yuan'er waved. The messenger bird dropped the letter and disappeared with amazing speed.

Little Yuan'er cried out, "Master! It's another letter from Jiang Aijian!"

"Read it."

Little Yuan'er began to read. "I'm sorry, I ran out of paper. Anyway, Fan Xiuwen's actual name is Leng Luo. He's known as the Grim Yama. He was ranked on the top of the blacklist 300 years ago. Old senior, I think you know this person better than I do so there's no need for me to elaborate."

Little Yuan'er clicked her tongue. She crumpled the paper scornfully, and it turned to dust in her fist. She scratched her head in confusion when she recalled the content of Jiang Aijian's second letter. She was not even 16 years old. There was no way she was familiar with someone from 300 years ago. However, if that person had lived so long before becoming the leader of the Black Knights, his cultivation base had to be quite profound.

"Leng Luo…" Suddenly, memories of this person surfaced in Lu Zhou's mind. "It's him?"

"Master, who's this person? We can't trust Jiang Aijian's words."

Lu Zhou shook his head. These matters did not conflict with Jiang Aijian's interests. There was no reason for Jiang Aijian to lie.

"Where's Old Fourth now?"

"With Fourth Senior Brother's speed, he should have gone beyond the barrier by now…"

Chapter 79: Intelligent Mingshi Yin

EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Zhou stroked his beard as he shook his head slightly. Leng Luo was 200 years younger than Ji Tiandao. However, 300 years ago, Leng Luo was a great villain who committed every evil act imaginable. He was notorious for his cunning in the cultivation world. He burned, killed, robbed, and looted everywhere he went while humiliating others. However, this person usually operated alone and never worked with anyone else. He had committed many evil deeds on his own. He managed to escape with his life intact even though thousands of cultivators had gone against him. This earned him the top spot on the blacklist.

Ji Tiandao had fought this person to a draw previously. Although Ji Tiandao was older than Leng Luo, at that time, he had not reached the peak of his power yet. After he had reached the pinnacle of power, Ji Tiandao began accepting disciples with a vengeance. The name of Golden Court Mountain's Evil Sky Pavilion shocked and resounded in the world. Soon after, Ji Tiandao rose to the top of the blacklist. It was at that time that Leng Luo seemed to have vanished without a trace.

In this world, only accomplished cultivators were able to live for more than 300 years. It was only natural that the younger generation had never heard of Leng Luo.

300 years ago, this person was at the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm with a Six-leaf Golden Lotus Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar. Now that 300 years had passed, what was his cultivation base like? Even if he made no progress over the centuries, he was certainly stronger than Mingshi Yin who had just recently attained his Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar. He was not someone Mingshi Yin could defeat.

Lu Zhou said solemnly, "Send word to Old Fourth. That man is extremely dangerous. Tell him to be careful."

"Extremely dangerous?"

When Little Yuan'er heard this, she blinked and asked, "Master, should we summon Fourth Senior Brother back?"

Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "There's no need for that."

Mingshi Yin was a Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm expert, after all. After spending so many years being tormented by Ji Tiandao, he now had the character of a loach.

When the Righteous Sect and Heavenly Sword Sect elites besieged Golden Court Mountain previously, even Lu Zhou's third disciple, Duanmu Sheng, was captured. However, Mingshi Yin managed to stay free. Moreover, all he was supposed to do was pass on a message to Leng Luo. Even if there was a trap laid out, it would be difficult for people to capture a disciple like Mingshi Yin. If Lu Zhou did not have item cards, he would not even be able to control Mingshi Yin.

Lu Zhou thought to himself, 'Leng Luo might have attained a Seven-leaf or even an Eight-leaf avatar by now. However, any higher than that, I'm afraid it's very unlikely!' He was quite concerned about the skills and hidden tricks that Leng Luo, or as he was currently known, Fang Xiuwen, had gained after 300 years.

…

A day later. In the Eastern Capital that was also known as Upper Prime City.

A troop of mounted soldiers in black armor and dark masks rode their huge stallions along the street.

The commoners scattered to the side, making way for the troops. They did not dare to get in the way of the troops.

Some of the cultivators would glance at them from a distance before going about their own businesses.

Nobody dared to offend these black people on mounts.

The soldiers stopped at Upper Prime City's gates.

At the front of the troop, three mounted black knights were at the lead. They were clearly different from the others.

These three men were rumored to be among four of the most powerful black knights. Collectively, they were known as the Four Dark Knights. They each had their specialized talent and had a profound cultivation base. Nobody knew the extent of their strength.

The first black knight asked, "How long is Old Third going to take?"

"Old Third's archery is peerless under the heavens. Any target that's unfortunate to fall into his radar will definitely die. It shouldn't be difficult for him to kill the traitor of the Upper Prime City."

"Our mission in the Upper Prime City can be considered as completed. The four of us should drink to our hearts' content when we return to the Divine Capital."

"I hope the leader will be satisfied."

At this moment, they heard the sound of whistling from a sailing arrow.

Whoosh!

With a loud thud, the arrow embedded itself on the city's gates. A human head was attached to the arrow.

The three black knights did not seem surprised or frightened. They only nodded in satisfaction.

"As expected of Old Third!"

"His archery is truly peerless under the heavens."

The black knights looked toward the end of the street. A black knight was speeding toward them with a bow and a quiver of arrows on his back. This was the black knight, one of the Four Dark Knights, who was most skilled in archery.

The leader of the Four Dark Knights spoke in a deep voice, "Report back to the Divine Capital!"

"Understood!"

The Black Knights paraded majestically out of the city gates.

Hooves thundered on the road, kicking up clouds of dust as the Black Knights sped toward the Divine Capital.

When the troop passed a forest, a peal of cunning and strange laughter resounded in their ears.

Neigh!

The leader of the Four Dark Knights immediately pulled on the reins of his steed before he raised a hand.

The Black Knights were well-trained. They quickly stopped in their tracks. They were well synchronized as well.

When they heard the laughter, Old Third, the one who was skilled with a bow, immediately leaped into the air. He nocked an arrow and looked around his surroundings. If he could see the target, this arrow would send the person to meet his maker.

However, even after the laughter faded away, nobody appeared.

"Who dare block our way?" The leader of the Black Knights said in a deep voice.

For some unknown reason, they were slightly unnerved by this peculiar laughter even though they were used to operating in darkness and tainting their hands with the blood of others.

The laughter rang in the air again.

"Old Third!"

"Roger!"

'Look for the target from the direction of his laughter.'

Twang!

Old Third of the Four Dark Knights sent his arrow flying through the air in the direction of the laughter, flying into the dense foliage before disappearing. The feathered arrow was shrouded with Primal Qi!

There was no sound at all.

"Did you get him?"

This question was directed at the archer, Old Third.

Only users of the bow would know if the arrow had hit its target.

Old Third had a slight frown on his face. He fell silent for a moment before he finally replied, "No!" An elite could tell by their instincts.

"This person must be a Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm elite!"

The black knights behind the Four Dark Knights shuffled around to shift formations.

The laughter rang in the air again. This time, it was accompanied by a mocking statement. "Nice shot."

A black knight shouted, "Who's there?!"

The voice rang in the air. "I'm a disciple of Golden Court Mountain's Evil Sky Pavilion… Where's the leader of the Black Knights, Fan Xiuwen?"

The Four Dark Knights exchanged glances. Although they were wearing masks, they could feel each other's astonishment.

There was not a single soul under the heavens who did not know about the Evil Sky Pavilion.

"So, it's a friend from the Evil Sky Pavilion…"

Upon hearing this, the person laughed before he said derisively, "Friend?" The voice seemed to come from all directions. The trees in the surroundings began to move as well.

"Where is Fan Xiuwen?!" This voice belonged to Mingshi Yin, the Evil Sky Pavilion's fourth disciple.

Mingshi Yin was not only intelligent, but he was exceptionally cunning. This was a forest, this place was advantageous to his Bluewood Heart Technique. Even a Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm cultivator with a Six-leaf avatar might not be able to capture him. In this place, he was king!

"The leader is in the Divine Capital, what business do you have with him?"

Mingshi Yin was displeased. He had made many inquiries before he finally found out the Black Knights were on a mission in the Eastern Capital. He had waited here the entire day, certain that the Black Knight would pass by. He thought to himself, I waited the entire day for the Four Dark Knights and a bunch of small fries?'

"Listen up! I'll give you three days. The Evil Sky Pavilion wants to meet Fan Xiuwen… If he doesn't show up, your fates will be the same as this tree!"

A towering tree suddenly snapped and fell, crashing toward the Black Knights.

The Black Knights were elite troops. They quickly retreated and dispersed.

The Four Dark Knights wrapped themselves with energy.

Bang!

Chapter 80: On the Top of the Blacklist

EndlessFantasy Translation

The huge tree fell with a loud crash before the Black Knights before it shattered.

The black knight in the lead looked up before he gave the archer, Old Third, who was still hovering in the air, a meaningful look.

Old Third landed on his steed.

"I shall convey your message."

After that, the troop of black knights hurried along the small path toward the Divine Capital.

Shortly after, peace and quiet returned to the forest. Mingshi Yin walked out from behind a huge tree. He looked at the leaving black knights with interest. "Since four of them are so strong, it's impossible for Fan Xiu Wen to be weak. Oh, master, who are you trying to provoke this time?"

The Four Dark Knights' cultivation bases were almost at the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm while the remaining black knights' cultivation bases were at the Divine Court realm. Without considering the great and second disciple of the Evil Sky Pavilion, these black knights could have fought on par with the Evil Sky Pavilion. There was no way that a person who commanded these people was a nobody in the cultivation world.

Mingshi Yin's curiosity was piqued. He wondered aloud, "Fan Xiuwen, who are you?" He tapped the ground with a foot and flew up to the trees with the agility of a swallow. His Bluewood Heart Technique was at its full potential in a forest. He moved with lightning speed before he seemed to vanish without a trace.

…

When the Black Knights arrived in the Divine Capital, they did not go into the city immediately. Instead, they skirted around the capital and continued north.

The Imperial Guards guarded the capital. The Black Knights were a covert group and only operated in the shadows. Their existence was not publicly acknowledged. Naturally, their base was not located in the capital. Only a handful of people knew of the location of their base.

…

At the foot of a hill. The Black Knights Headquarters.

The Four Dark Knights entered a hall at the same time.

"My lord, we've completed our mission. The Upper Prime City's traitor has been eliminated by the Black Knights."

Four of them kneeled on the ground and cupped their hands together.

A long brown and empty table stood before them. Next to the table, a tall and muscular man dressed in black armor stood with his back facing them.

"Very good." The voice was hoarse and deep.

"My lord, I have another report."

"Speak."

"We encountered a villain from the Evil Sky Pavilion on our way back. The Evil Sky Pavilion has a message for you."

The Four Dark Knights exchanged glances. Their leader paused for a moment before he said, "The Evil Sky Pavilion wants to meet you. They've given us three days." He had softened Mingshi Yin's words out of fear of angering his leader.

Fan Xiuwen was not angry. Instead, he turned around slowly and walked toward the table before gracefully taking a seat. He wore a mask as well. Even his face was completely covered. No one knew what he looked like.

After a moment's silence, Fan Xiuwen chuckled before he said in his deep voice, "This is a tribulation that I must face in my lifetime."

"My Lord, the Evil Sky Pavilion is notorious in the cultivation world. It has produced nine great villains over the centuries whose names shocked the lands. The patriarch of the Fiend Path, Ji Tiandao, possesses an unfathomable cultivation base. My lord, I suggest that we avoid the Evil Sky Pavilion…"

Fan Xiuwen raised a hand slowly and said, "I've received an order from the palace. The Evil Sky Pavilion has meddled in the palace's plans."

The Four Dark Knights were stunned by Fan Xiuwen's words, their mask hiding their shocked expressions.

"My Lord, are we making an enemy out of the Evil Sky Pavilion?"

Fan Xiuwen shook his head and spoke in his raspy voice, "The Evil Sky Pavilion is indeed terrifying. We have no idea about the cultivation bases of its nine disciples… Rumor has it that Ji Tiandao possesses an Eight-leaf Golden Lotus Avatar. It's not surprising for him to be able to repel the ten great elites."

Fan Xiuwen's four subordinates lowered their heads and listened quietly.

After muttering to himself for some time, Fan Xiuwen placed his hands behind his back and said, "I have no intention of making the Evil Sky Pavilion an enemy… It's only natural that we should avoid making an enemy out of such powerful people."

The Four Dark Knights felt relieved inwardly. They were worried their leader would be overconfident. Although the Black Knights were powerful, if they were to butt heads with Ji Tiandao, both sides would surely sustain great losses. After all, there was no need for them to be impatient. When Ji Tiandao's time was up, they would be able to easily destroy the Evil Sky Pavilion.

However, when Fan Xiuwen spoke again, his words seemed to have taken a sharp turn. "However, since the palace has issued an order, we must obey the order. Since the Evil Sky Pavilion wants to see me, I'll go see them."

The Four Dark Knights were taken aback. They did not expect the palace would order the Black Knights to negotiate with the Evil Sky Pavilion. Was this only a coincidence?

They were Fan Xiuwen's most trusted subordinates. Naturally, they knew about Fan Xiuwen's identity as well. Fan Xiuwen was younger than Ji Tiandao, but he was a unique talent in the cultivation world. When he was at the top of the blacklist, the Evil Sky Pavilion had not even existed yet. Ji Tiandao and their leader had fought to a draw. However, Ji Tiandao experienced a huge leap in his cultivation base and went on to establish the Evil Sky Pavilion. They did not know how profound Fan Xiuwen's cultivation base was, but they were certain it was not higher than an Eight-leaf avatar.

"Master! At Ji Tiandao's age, his time should be up in a decade, at most. He'll be gone by then. Why do we have to rush there now?"

"I concur!"

"I concur!"

"I concur!"

The four of them raised their cupped hands at the same time.

Fan Xiuwen looked at all four of them. He was not angered. After all, these four people were his most trusted subordinates. He stayed silent for a moment before he finally said in a deep voice, "I can wait, and the Black Knights can wait. Even the emperor can wait. However, Great Yan cannot wait."

The Four Dark Knights were baffled. They did not understand their leader's words.

When Fan Xiuwen saw his subordinates were about to speak, he waved his hand and said, "Three days later, accompany me to the Evil Sky Pavilion. This matter is settled."

…

"Ding! Mingshi Yin has accomplished his mission. Gained 300 merit points."

When Lu Zhou received this notification, he was not surprised. He was pleased. Apart from the rascals who left the Evil Sky Pavilion, those who remained were quite smart. Their only shortcoming was that it was difficult for them to improve their cultivation bases after being suppressed by Ji Tiandao for so long. He had to quickly change this situation.

Lu Zhou had a feeling that the world did not dare to act against the Evil Sky Pavilion due to Ji Tiandao's cultivation base. However, as time passed, probing attacks such as the one before would only increase in frequency. The limit of one's life was determined after all.

Lu Zhou was still deep in thoughts when he heard Little Yuan'er calling out to him.

"Master, I've waited the entire day but Fourth Senior Brother still hasn't written back. Do you think he received my letter?" Little Yuan'er launched into a lengthy complaint the moment she appeared before Lu Zhou.

"It's fine." Mingshi Yin had completed his mission. As long as he did not cause trouble elsewhere and return safely, there would not be a problem.

However, Little Yuan'er said, "Master, is Senior Brother dead? I've asked Blockhead about this, he said the leader of the Black Knights, Fan Xiuwen, is very dangerous. Nobody knows who he truly is."

"Blockhead?"

"Pan Zhong! He said that Fourth Senior Brother will die! I gave him a piece of my mind after I heard his words," Little Yuan'er said huffily.

"A piece of your mind?" Lu Zhou recalled that time when Pan Zhong's face was swollen and bruised.

Little Yuan'er raised a thumb and said in a small voice, "Well, I might have accidentally scratched him…"

Lu Zhou shook his head. 'When will she change her violent habit of hitting others on a whim?' He knocked her head. "You're becoming unrulier by the day."

"This disciple knows that she's wrong."

Boom!

A loud explosion suddenly rang from the back of the mountains.

Lu Zhou frowned slightly. The Golden Court Mountain was protected by a barrier. 'Who's causing the disturbance?'

At this moment, Pan Zhong appeared in a rush. He quickly cupped his hands together before he said, "M-mister Third has had a breakthrough!"

Duanmu Sheng had attained the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm?

Chapter 81: A Powerful Helper

EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Zhou's expression remained unchanged, but he felt pleased inwardly. His disciple, Duanmu Sheng, was not as calculative as Mingshi Yin even though he was opinionated. Ever since the siege by the ten great elites, Duanmu Sheng's loyalty remained stable and unwavering. Compared to rascals like Mingshi Yin and Zhao Yue, he preferred Duanmu Sheng more.

If Duanmu Sheng and Mingshi Yin were in the same realm, Duanmu Sheng could easily win in a fight against Mingshi Yin. However, Mingshi Yin had benefited from the battle on Golden Court Mountain previously. Mingshi Yin had a breakthrough in his Bluewood Heart Technique. Although Duanmu Sheng's progress was slower, it was no surprise that he had a breakthrough in his realm.

"That's great!" Little Yuan'er clapped her hands excitedly.

Lu Zhou looked at Little Yuan'er and reprimanded her in a low voice, "You're the laziest and most carefree one here. You should work hard to catch up to your senior brother."

Little Yuan'er stuck her tongue out and said, "I know."

In truth, Lu Zhou was not worried about Little Yuan'er. She might be the last to join him, but her cultivation base had improved the quickest. Even Zhou Jifeng, the great disciple of Heavenly Sword Sect, admitted that he could not compare to her.

After a short while, Duanmu Sheng walked into the hall, looking very spirited. The chains that were still on his body clinked as he walked in.

Zhou Jifeng trailed behind Duanmu Sheng, his expression was one of admiration and envy.

Pan Zhong wore a similar expression on his face as well.

Ever since the two of them entered Golden Court Mountain, apart from being picked on by some disciples, they were, generally, pleased with their current states. At the very least, they could focus on cultivating and were not involved in the affairs of the world. After all, the reason they walked on the path of cultivation was to get stronger.

As soon as Duanmu Sheng entered the Evil Sky Pavilion's great hall, he kneeled on the ground and said respectfully, "I had a stroke of luck and managed to break through to the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm. I've successfully formed the Hundred Tribulation Insight avatar!"

Lu Zhou had a pleased expression on his face as he stroked his beard. He nodded and said, "It's good that you had a breakthrough. The path of cultivation is long so remember not to be too proud or impatient. Keep up the good work." He spoke with the air of a teacher and elder.

Lu Zhou's behavior contradicted the impression that Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng had of the greatest villain under the heavens.

"Thank you for your teachings, master. I'll remember them." Duanmu Sheng kowtowed sincerely. His loyalty had gone up by 1%.

It was obvious that the higher the percentage, the harder it would be to increase.

Lu Zhou suddenly remembered the Overlord Spear. It seemed like the spear's designated owner was Duanmu Sheng. He found it logical. After all, Duanmu Sheng cultivated the Divine One Technique that included sword and spear play. Duanmu Sheng's character was frank and fierce, which made a spear more suitable for him compared to a sword. The spear and the sword were two different weapons, but they would lead to the same result. It would be beneficial for him as well if Duanmu Sheng grew stronger. After thinking about this, he rose to his feet before he said, "Wait here. I'll be back soon."

"Understood."

…

Lu Zhou returned to the hidden chamber. He raised his arm, and the Overlord Spear flew into his hand.

The dragon that was twined around the Overlord Spear's shaft gave it a majestic air.

After Lu Zhou obtained the Overlord Spear, he returned to the great hall. As soon as he arrived, he tossed the Overlord Spear over to Duanmu Sheng.

Whoosh!

The others were shocked. They thought that Lu Zhou was going to punish his disciple so they did not try to stop the spear.

Duanmu Sheng was startled and instinctively lifted his hands and crossed the chains before him to defend himself.

Clang!

Sparks flew when the Overlord Spear collided with Duanmu Sheng's chains before it shot up. Upon seeing this, he quickly grabbed the Overlord Spear's shaft. With just a glance, he was already impressed by the spear. 'This is a good weapon!'

"I'm giving the Overlord Spear to you… Use it well, and don't let me down!" Lu Zhou said.

Duanmu Sheng was overjoyed when he heard Lu Zhou's words. He quickly put the Overlord Spear aside before he kowtowed reverently at Lu Zhou. "Thank you for the weapon, master!"

At this moment, Little Yuan'er, Zhou Jifeng, and Pan Zhong finally regained their senses and realized Lu Zhou's intention. They felt jealous and envious!

"Ding! Overlord Spear has successfully gained an owner. Activated grade: Heaven-grade. Reward: 1,000 merit points."

Lu Zhou managed to figure some things out. It seemed like the grades of the weapons would only be completely activated when they were given to the most suitable owners. If it were casually given to someone else who was not suited to it, it would not be able to unleash its full potential. If he was not mistaken, Duanmu Sheng would be able to break the cold iron chains with a heaven-grade weapon. What a handsome reward! He wondered how many weapons were left behind after Ji Tiandao's death. After all, Ji Tiandao had slighted too many disciples so Lu Zhou had to be fair to everyone now.

When Duanmu Sheng obtained his weapon, his loyalty increased by 1% again.

"Master, I want one as well!" Little Yuan'er said as she ran up to Lu Zhou.

Fortunately, Lu Zhou had already thought about what to say. "Your cultivation base is still too low. You shouldn't be messing around."

As the saying went, 'A common man's only crime is to carry a jade'. How could a Divine Court realm cultivator protect his or her weapon? Although it was extremely difficult to cultivate a heaven-grade weapon, powerful cultivators with bad intentions would still covet it. This was a very common occurrence.

"Very well…" Little Yuan'er nodded unwillingly.

Duanmu Sheng would not let go of his newly-obtained weapon. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it. He looked around, wanting to look for someone to spar with. Obviously, his master was out of the question. This meant only Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng were left.

"Both of you…"

"Mister Third, do you have orders for us?"

"Spar with me."

Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng were stunned by Duanmu Sheng's words.

Duanmu Sheng did not wait for them to reply as he said, "I'll be waiting behind the mountain." Before he left, he cupped his hands at Lu Zhou and respectfully said, "Master, I'm going to train with my weapon. I'll take my leave."

"Go ahead." Lu Zhou waved his hand.

Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng wore bitter expressions on their faces. They shuffled out of the Evil Sky Pavilion reluctantly.

…

After the three people left, a messenger bird flew in.

Little Yuan'er who knew her job very well quickly received the letter from the messenger bird. "Master, it's a letter from Fourth Senior Brother. I'll read it out for you…" She quickly unfolded the letter and read out loud, "Master, I've conveyed your message to the Black Knights… They'll be arriving in Evil Sky Pavilion in a few days' time. I'll be keeping an eye on them along the way."

After Little Yuan'er read the letter, she exclaimed in shock, "Fan Xiuwen is really bold. To think he easily agreed to come here. Master! Don't show him any mercy. Kill him with a single slap!"

"…"

'If I kill him, who's going to unravel the truth behind the Fish Dragon Village's annihilation?' The expression on Lu Zhou's wizened face remained calm. However, inwardly, he could not help but feel suspicious. Fan Xiuwen, or Leng Luo, had always been cunning and valued his life very much. He was similar to Jiang Aijian in this regard. However, Jiang Aijian was a lively character, but Fan Xiuwen was a man filled with schemes.

'There's no way that such a person would be easily provoked to come to the Evil Sky Pavilion. Fan Xiuwen should've heard the news of me defeating the ten great elites. Since he's unafraid, I wonder where his confidence comes from?'

Even when Lu Zhou attained his Nine-leaf avatar by means of the Peak Form Card, nobody believed the rumor when it spread.

"Yuan'er."

"Yes, master?"

"How's Ye Tianxin doing these few days?"

"Apart from her shocking complexion, she's doing fine," Little Yuan'er replied.

Lu Zhou nodded. He stood up slowly before entering the hidden chamber again.

"Have a safe trip, master."

Lu Zhou knew he needed to prepare for Fan Xiuwen's arrival. He needed to find ways to suppress Fan Xiuwen. Moreover, it seems like Fan Xiuwen was related to the truth behind the destruction of Fish Dragon Village that had something to do with his lost memories.

Lu Zhou opened the system dashboard once he entered the hidden chamber. He had 1,310 merit points. He had lost interest in Reversal Cards. His current condition was undoubtedly more suitable for him to cultivate. This meant his only option was to select the lucky draw.

"Ding! Your disciple, Mingshi Yin, killed two black knights on his way back. Earned 200 merit points."

"Ding! Killed two black knights. Earned 200 merit points."

Chapter 82: The Master has Spoken

EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Zhou's heart stirred slightly. 'This Mingshi Yin! He won't stop making me worry. Since you've already conveyed the message, you can just peacefully return. You just had to get in conflict with Fan Xiuwen's men. If you provoked Fan Xiuwen and get yourself killed, you'll only have yourself to blame!'

Mingshi Yin was still quite a distance away from the Evil Sky Pavilion. Although Lu Zhou could rescue him with a Peak Form Card, it would still take some time for Lu Zhou to reach him even if he unleashed all his techniques to rush over. If Mingshi Yin managed to escape unscathed from the Black Knights, he was certain Mingshi Yin would be able to protect himself better in Great Yan in the future.

The path of cultivation was fraught with dangers. Lu Zhou did not wish for anything to happen to Mingshi Yin. Although this disciple of his was unruly, he was certain Mingshi Yin had the potential to be someone great with the right education. Moreover, he also hoped to earn merit points through Mingshi Yin. Currently, the system dashboard showed he had 1,710 merit points.

Lu Zhou thought to himself, 'I have two Deadly Strike Cards left. They should be enough. Binding Cage's hit rate is too low. I should buy two more.' When he opened the item cards tab, he saw Binding Cage had been unlocked. It cost 200 merit points each, and he bought three in a go.

'I have six Binding Cage Cards now, this should be enough, right? I'll go for the lucky draw next time. It'll be worth it if I manage to get an avatar. I'll only make two draws."

…

Two days later.

Lu Zhou finally decided to stop comprehending the Heavenly Writing for now. After continuously studying it, he discovered he had made some headway. The more he comprehended it, the more his mental state improved. The improvement seemed to show itself when something unexpected happened. A good example of this was when he encountered the Buddhist Brahman Lullaby and when his fourth disciple, Mingshi Yin, approached the hidden chamber. He managed to remain unaffected by the Brahman Lullaby and repel Mingshi Yin. He muttered to himself, "Could it be that the process of comprehension allows me to gain extraordinary power?" This seemed to be the only logical explanation, for now.

Lu Zhou closed Heavenly Writing's interface. He felt that he had been a little too immersed in comprehending and studying it during the past two days.

At this moment, Little Yuan'er voice rang from outside, "Master, Fourth Senior Brother is back!"

"Alright." Lu Zhou left the hidden chamber and walked toward the pavilion. He saw Mingshi Yin kneeling in the hall.

Mingshi Yin's face was covered in grime, and he looked extremely battered.

To Lu Zhou's relief, Mingshi Yin's loyalty did not decrease. In fact, it seemed to be much better than before.

Mingshi Yin said, intentionally speaking loudly, "Greetings, master!"

Lu Zhou walked over with his hands on his back, "Stand up and talk. Where are the Black Knights now?"

"The Black Knights departed earlier… They're less than 10 miles away from Golden Court Mountain. They should arrive at any minute," Mingshi Yin replied.

Little Yuan'er exclaimed in surprise, "So soon?!"

At this moment, an unnatural smile appeared on Mingshi Yin's face.

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and walked over. He stood before Mingshi Yin and looked at him appraisingly before saying, "Daredevil! Impudent!"

Upon hearing this, Mingshi Yin instinctively fell to his knees. 'I'm dead. Master is going to lose his temper!'

"We're not clear about Fan Xiuwen's strength. You've just entered the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm, and yet, you're bold enough to provoke him? I think you're sick of living, is that right?" Lu Zhou's tone contained a hint of rebuke when he spoke.

"I dare not! I was worried he wouldn't come so I… harassed some of his men! I didn't plan on killing them, but they didn't want to let me go. I had no choice but to hide in the forest and took care of them there," Mingshi Yin explained.

"Fool." Lu Zhou evaluated Mingshi Yin's actions calmly. "If Fan Xiuwen really meant you harm, he would be able to easily deal with you. There's no need for him to give you a chance."

Mingshi Yin was frightened when he heard this. He asked in a small voice, "Fan Xiuwen is so strong?"

At this moment, Little Yuan'er chimed in, "His real name is Leng Luo. Didn't you read the letter master sent you?"

"…" Mingshi Yin sat on the floor with a dumbfounded expression on his face. He had never heard of Fan Xiuwen, but he was not unfamiliar with the name, Leng Luo. Back then, Leng Luo's reputation was unrivaled. If his master did not amaze the world by raising nine disciples, Leng Luo's reputation would linger even longer.

Leng Luo was a scheming expert with a profound cultivation base. How could Mingshi Yin not feel frightened after killing the Black Knights under such an expert's nose?

All of them wondered why Fan Xiuwen did not make a move…

At this moment, a female cultivator from Derived Moon Palace entered the hall. After bowing, she said, "Pavilion Master, Fan Xiuwen requests an audience with you. He's outside."

'Here he comes.' Lu Zhou looked outside the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Mingshi Yin rose to his feet, looking very obedient now. He asked tentatively, "Master, should I drive him away for now? You can meet him another time?" His master was old, after all. Even if his master could suppress Fan Xiuwen easily with his cultivation base and strength, he might not wish to fight such an elite.

Lu Zhou waved his hand dismissively and said calmly, "Bring him in."

"I'll fetch him" Mingshi Yin did not even have time to clean himself before he walked out of the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Little Yuan'er giggled and said, "Master… I'm going as well!"

Lu Zhou did not stop her. After all, Fan Xiuwen was already at the foot of the mountain. Fan Xiuwen was an intelligent man. He would not be so rash as to attack his disciples.

…

Beyond the barrier, Golden Court Mountain.

More than 10 Black Knights waited in a row, looking imposing. Only one knight stood at the lead, and he was none other than Fan Xiuwen. His most trusted subordinates, the Four Dark Knights, stood in the middle.

Fan Xiuwen looked at Golden Court Mountain's barrier that shone with a gold brilliance as he said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't expect Golden Court Mountain to have a Formation in such a perfect place…"

A Black Knight standing behind Fan Xiuwen said, "Rumor has it that even the ten great Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm elites could not break Golden Court Mountain's barrier after they joined forces. Such a Formation is truly amazing."

Fan Xiuwen nodded lightly and said indifferently, "Four of you will accompany me up the mountain while the rest will stay here and wait."

"Understood."

At this moment, a figure shot toward them from the top of the stairs at lightning speed. It was none other than Mingshi Yin. He came to halt a short distance away from the barrier. He looked at the people beyond the barrier to confirm they were the Black Knights he had seen in the forest. The person standing in the lead who wore black armor and a black tiger mask with a tall and muscular body had to be the infamous Leng Luo. He felt chills running up his spine when he looked at him. He did not dare to act recklessly. He cupped his hands together and said, "The master invites you up the mountain."

Fan Xiuwen glanced at Mingshi Yin and said in a deceptively soft voice, "The Evil Sky Pavilion's fourth disciple, Mingshi Yin… You killed four of my knights. However, on account of your master, I won't hold it against you."

"Senior, you're truly magnanimous. However, I was only defending myself since they persisted on hunting me down…" Mingshi Yin said.

A Black Knight standing behind Fan Xiuwen retorted coldly, "Weren't you the one who infiltrated the Black Knights Headquarters first?"

"I was just worried you won't convey the message to your leader. I won't be able to bear the consequences if I fail my task. All of you know what kind of person my master is, right?" Mingshi Yin effectively stopped the Black Knights from retorting by bringing his master up.

Fan Xiuwen raised a hand to signal his subordinates to not interrupt. Then, he said indifferently, "I will never decline an invitation from your master. Lead the way." Based on his words, he was clearly confident in his strength.

Compared to Fan Xiuwen, Mingshi Yin preferred Zuo Xinchan better. At the very least, Zuo Xinchan had addressed him as Mister Fourth. He liked the sound of that. Alas, it was unfortunate that Zuo Xinchan was dead.

Mingshi Yin walked up to the barrier before waving his arm, and an opening appeared in the barrier. "Master asks you to go up on your own."

"Interesting." Fan Xiuwen nodded. He walked up as the Four Dark Knights trailed after him.

The last Dark Knight to cross the barrier paused for a moment to look at Mingshi Yin before he said, "Fourth disciple of the Evil Sky Pavilion, if we have the opportunity in the future, let's exchange some moves."

Without batting an eyelid, Mingshi Yi calmly said, "Master has said that I'm not to fight without a reason…"

Chapter 83: Fan Xiuwen

EndlessFantasy Translation

The Dark Knight did not reply and caught up to the others. Since five of them were wearing masks, none of their expressions could be seen. They left the remaining Black Knights at the foot of the mountain as they walked up the stairs that led to the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Halfway up the stairs, Fan Xiuwen suddenly came to a stop and asked nonchalantly, "Who's hiding in the shadows?"

A flash of black clothes flitted between the trees on the right before it leaped from one tree to another. Little Yuan'er stood on a branch. She frowned and said, "Ugly." She had described them as ugly, not terrifying.

One of the Dark Knights spoke up irritably, "My Lord, the Evil Sky Pavilion doesn't seem to be showing us much respect!"

Fan Xiuwen raised a hand to cut him short. Then, they continued up the mountain. If he could accept Mingshi Yin killing four of his knights but could not tolerate this insult, how would he be able to command respect as the leader of the Black Knights? When he was at the top of the blacklist, there was no shortage of insults being thrown at him. Regardless of how terrible the insults were, he did not take them to heart. His long years of training made it easy for him to disregard such matters.

Little Yuan'er pulled a face at Mingshi Yin before she flew back up the mountain. Perhaps, she was the only one who could go up and down the mountain freely since she was loved by her master.

Mingshi Yin shook his head helplessly and said, "My Little Junior Sister has always been this way. Please don't take her seriously."

Fan Xiuwen said nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter."

A moment later, they arrived at the Evil Sky Pavilion and slowly walked into the great hall.

Mingshi Yin swept his gaze across the hall. He discovered Zhao Yue and Ye Tianxin were present as well. They were sitting on chairs, looking exhausted. Meanwhile, Duanmu Sheng, Zhou Jifeng, Pan Zhong stood on the left.

Fan Xiuwen placed one hand on his back that was as straight as a rod. His four subordinates stood in pairs behind him.

The great hall was deathly silent at this moment. Everyone's eyes were trained on the five visitors.

Fan Xiu Wen looked at Lu Zhou, the old man who sat at the highest place in the hall. He was stunned when their eyes met. Rumor had it that Ji Tiandao's days were numbered. Ji Tiandao's 1,000 years of cultivation would return to nature once his time was up.

Fan Xiuwen had always had a talent for gauging a person's life aura. Indeed, this old man only had about fifteen years left in him. However, he could not gauge the old man's cultivation base. If he had forcefully tried to probe the old man's cultivation base, it would be equivalent to a blatant provocation. This would not be the most rational course of action, naturally. After a while, he said in a neither servile nor domineering manner, "Fan Xiuwen pays respect to Old Senior Ji."

At the same time, Fan Xiuwen's four subordinates cupped their hands together in greeting as well.

Lu Zhou could not see their faces. His expression was calm. One would find it difficult to read his mind based on his expressions. He said condescendingly, "Sit down." His tone was similar to the tone one with a higher status would use when speaking to those with a lower status.

Fan Xiuwen cupped his hands together before taking a seat. "I heard you wanted to see me, Old Senior Ji… I did not dare to delay so I led the Black Knights here without making any stops. I wonder what matters you wanted to discuss with me, Old Senior Ji?"

Lu Zhou stroked his beard. He pointed at Ye Tianxin and casually said, "I'm sure you recognize this person…"

Fan Xiuwen shifted his gaze from under his mask. He saw Ye Tianxin sitting on the chair opposite him. She was unusually pale. He shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I don't." He sounded honest.

Little Yuan'er suddenly giggled and said, "This is my master's sixth disciple. She's my senior sister, Ye Tianxin…!" She made a spitting sound before saying, "Traitor!"

"So, she's the Evil Sky Pavilion's sixth disciple. I apologize for my rudeness," Fan Xiuwen said softly.

Lu Zhou nodded and calmly said, "Do you know about the Fish Dragon Village?"

Fan Xiuwen's body stilled immediately. However, his thick and heavy armor and mask hid his expression. Nobody knew what he was thinking about. After a while, he shook his head, indicating he did not know about the Fish Dragon Village. After all, the village was too insignificant. As the leader of the Black Knights, why would he remember a minor village? He asked, "Why do you ask about the Fish Dragon Village, old senior?"

"Ye Tianxin," Lu Zhou said imposingly.

Ye Tianxin shuddered slightly. She supported herself and spoke with no inflection in her tone, "The Fish Dragon Village has a population of about 354 villagers. About 150 years ago, it was completely destroyed…" She did not continue to speak after that.

Ye Tianxin had investigated this incident after she left Golden Court Mountain… She went through many troubles only to discover all the signs pointed to her master, Ji Tiandao, whose name alone would shock the lands.

Fan Xiuwen nodded and said, "I see. I'm truly sorry to hear the Fish Dragon Village has been destroyed. However…" He turned to Lu Zhou and asked, "Is this the reason you summoned me here, old senior?"

"That's right," Lu Zhou said nonchalantly.

"What does this have to do with me?"

"The records of the palace and local archives stated that I was the one who destroyed the Fish Dragon Village." Although Lu Zhou could not see Fan Xiuwen's expression, it did not escape his eyes that Fan Xiuwen's body had moved slightly as soon as he finished speaking. He wondered if this indicated Fan Xiuwen's surprise or nervousness.

"Is that so?" Fan Xiuwen asked, a hint of shock could be heard in his voice.

When Lu Zhou spoke about himself being the alleged culprit, everyone could see the unnatural expression on Ye Tianxin's face.

"The Black Knights is the special force of Great Yan's Imperial Family. They only operate in the shadows. It's only natural the palace archives won't mention the force," Lu Zhou calmly said.

Fan Xiuwen cupped his hands and said, "Every cultivator knows that the Black Knights is the special force of the Imperial Family."

"The Black Knights has never been to Measure Heaven River?" Lu Zhou asked.

When Fan Xiuwen heard the question, he acted as though he had expected it. He was an intelligent person after all. As soon as Lu Zhou pointed at Ye Tianxin, he had known Lu Zhou would ask about this matter.

Fan Xiuwen laughed hoarsely, his laughter resounded in the pavilion. "Well, let's put the incident at the Fish Dragon Village aside for now. In fact, I came here today to discuss a certain matter with you, old senior."

"Speak," Lu Zhou said curtly.

"The palace has a message for you." Fan Xiuwen's attitude suddenly turned respectful. "The palace will not hold the Evil Sky Pavilion accountable for its various deeds in the past. This includes Mingshi Yin's killing of four Black Knights. The palace is willing to let bygones be bygones, but there's one condition…" He paused for a moment before he continued to say, "The Evil Sky Pavilion must not interfere with the business of the Great Yan's Imperial Family for the next ten years."

Silence descended on the great hall.

A few disciples exchanged looks among themselves.

Even Fan Xiuwen's four trusted subordinates did not know about this. However, they were relieved that the mission from the palace was just this. This request was simple. There were many cultivators in Great Yan. Some of the experts were wary about the forces within the palace and would not meddle in the palace's various affairs. Some of them were offered amnesty by enlistment and became a part of some influential person's faction.

After a slight pause, Fan Xiuwen added, "The Black Knights do not wish to be enemies with the Evil Sky Pavilion nor do we have the right or strength… I'm saying this on the Black Knights' behalf. I hope you can grant us this wish, old senior." After that, he no longer spoke. After all, he had already stated his reason for being here.

Everyone looked at Lu Zhou, waiting for his reply.

However, Mingshi Yin broke the silence first with a chuckle. He said, "The last person in this hall who rambled on in such a self-righteous manner had… flown on a crane to the Western Paradise. Are you trying to follow in his footsteps?"

Fan Xiuwen cupped his hands together. "I dare not."

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and finally said, "Leng Luo."

Fan Xiuwen's heart skipped a bit when he heard this. His body involuntarily stiffened for a moment.

Lu Zhou looked at Fan Xiuwen with a piercing gaze and said, "Are you trying to threaten me?"

Chapter 84: Don't Even Think About Leaving

EndlessFantasy Translation

Regardless of how humble Fan Xiuwen's tone was or how respectful his manner was, anyone with half a brain would be able to hear the underlying threat hidden in his words.

The Evil Sky Pavilion's might struck fear into people's hearts. Whether it was due to Lu Zhou or his nine disciples, even if they discounted Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong, no forces would dare to take the Evil Sky Pavilion lightly. What gave Fan Xiuwen the confidence to speak such words or stop the Evil Sky Pavilion from meddling in the Imperial Family's affairs if they so wished? What was that supposed to mean?

Fan Xiuwen rose to his feet and cupped his hands together again. "Since you're privy to my identity, old senior, why would you put me in a difficult position? Leng Luo has disappeared 300 years ago along with the grace and grudges of the past. You're older than me so I should address you as older brother. To be honest, being on the blacklist is not something I'm proud of. In fact, it has become an unremovable stain in my life." He spoke passionately with such self-righteousness that it made people cringe when they heard his words.

This person who was once on the top of the blacklist and had committed every evil act imaginable and unimaginable under the heavens said that he was ashamed of his past and had turned to the path of righteousness? Was that not funny?

Fan Xiuwen continued to say, "As for threatening you, the Black Knights won't dare to do such a thing. We're merely conveying the palace's message. There's nothing I can do even if you choose to reject this request."

Silence descended on the great hall again.

Mingshi Yin snorted, breaking the silence again, and said, "If you know your request will be rejected, aren't you just wasting your breath by saying it in the first place?"

Duanmu Sheng spoke frankly, "You're asking the Evil Sky Pavilion to not meddle in the palace's affairs… According to your logic, if we agree to your request, even if a person from the palace were to cut me open, I'd have to bear with it and endure it?"

"…"

"Fifth Junior Sister Zhao Yue's cultivation base was sealed by someone from the palace before she was sent to the holy altar for a marriage alliance. Who's going to answer for that? Who's going to answer for the destruction of the Fish Dragon Village?" Duanmu Sheng asked.

Everyone was surprised by Duanmu Sheng's eloquence. After all, he was a man of few words.

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "Leng Luo, did you hear that?" It seemed like he agreed with Duanmu Sheng's words.

This gave Lu Zhou's disciples a burst of confidence. After all, such a situation was unlikely to happen in the past. If they had spoken out of turn, they would bring disaster upon themselves.

Fan Xiuwen cupped his hands and said, "I can't defy the palace's orders. Old senior, there's no need for you to lower yourself to the palace's level."

"No, you don't understand." Lu Zhou rose to his feet and began to descend the stairs with his hands on his back.

This simple action caused Fan Xiuwen to stand up as well, clearly wary.

At this moment, Fan Xiuwen's four subordinates felt slightly worried as well.

Ji Tiandao was a villain known for his fiery temper and unpredictable mood swings. It would not surprise anyone if Ji Tiandao lost his temper at the slightest disagreement.

Lu Zhou asked again, "Is the Black Knights responsible for the destruction of Fish Dragon Village?" His knowing eyes were trained on Fan Xiuwen. He held a Deadly Strike Card in his hand as he waited silently for the answer.

His question resounded across the hall.

When the weak and dazed Ye Tianxin heard this question, her eyes widened. She looked at her master incredulously before looking at Fan Xiuwen who was standing opposite her master. She felt her heart racing as she thought to herself, 'Is there really another side to the Fish Dragon Village's story?'

The atmosphere turned tense and heavy.

Fan Xiuwen did not answer Lu Zhou's question directly. Instead, he said, "Other Tribes will never be allowed to exist in Great Yan's lands. There were too many of them at Measure Heaven River." As he spoke, he casually glanced at Ye Tianxin. This was as good as a direct admission.

Fan Xiuwen was intelligent. He knew that arguing about the matter or denying the truth were meaningless in this situation. The Evil Sky Pavilion would not have summoned him here if they did not have sufficient reason and proof.

Upon hearing Fan Xiuwen's words, everyone exchanged a look.

"Did you tamper with the records in the palace and local archives?"

"I did." Fan Xiuwen did not deny the allegation. Instead, he said, "There aren't many who have access to the palace's archives… Old senior, do you have an informant in the palace?"

Lu Zhou turned around suddenly, ignoring Fan Xiuwen's question. "So, you were the one who slandered me?"

Ji Tiandao had done many bad things. However, even the evil deeds of his nine disciples would be placed on him by the people in the cultivation world. As time passed, he became more and more infamous, and many people would push their crimes on him. After all, he had already committed so many wicked deeds, what was a few more? When his crimes, whether he committed them or not, grew, he did not explain himself. After all, it would take too much of his time to clear his name.

However, Lu Zhou could not tolerate something like this.

Fan Xiuwen quickly said, "The Black Knights were only following orders! We aren't the mastermind behind this… Moreover, from what I know, the sixth disciple of Evil Sky Pavilion is a traitor. Why would you pit yourself against the palace for a mere traitor, old senior?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Tianxin forced herself to stand. With her mortal body, she grabbed the sword that one of the female cultivators from Derived Moon Palace carried.

Zing!

The blade gleamed coldly as Ye Tianxin thrust the sword toward Fan Xiuwen.

Bang!

Fan Xiuwen did not move. His hands remained on his back. He was like a statue made from rock. The sword cracked and shattered when it landed on him.

Everyone was shocked.

Ye Tianxin's eyes were red. She said belligerently, "Who's the mastermind? Who is it?"

Whoosh!

Fan Xiuwen released a wave of energy that pushed Ye Tianxin away. "Old Senior Ji, the Black Knights do not wish to become enemies with the Evil Sky Pavilion. I've answered all your questions. As for the mastermind, forgive me for not being able to answer you. Since I've already conveyed the palace's message to you, it's up to you what you decide to do, old senior…" As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and strode toward the door.

Upon seeing this, Fan Xiuwen's four subordinates stood up and cupped their hands together before leaving with their leader.

Fan Xiuwen took two steps forward before suddenly coming to a halt. "However, as a junior, I have two pieces of advice for you, old senior. First, It's best not to go against the palace. After all, 10 years will pass in just a blink of an eye. Second, although the Black Knights can't compare with the Evil Sky Pavilion, we aren't pushovers as well. We'll take our leave now."

Since they had arrived at the Evil Sky Pavilion until now, they had been constantly disregarded and disrespected. They had never been treated in this manner before. They had to forfeit their pride and dignity here. Even Fan Xiuwen had acted humbly. However, after listening to Fan Xiuwen's parting words, they felt extremely refreshed. The knots in their hearts seemed to have vanished with his words. They found his statement appropriate. After all, it was true that the Black Knights was no pushover.

Before the five visitors could leave the pavilion, Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said in a deceptively calm voice, "Did I allow you to leave?"

"Hm?" Fan Xiuwen stopped in his tracks. His heart skipped a beat.

"When I summoned you here, I had no intention of letting you leave." Lu Zhou waved his hand.

Duanmu Sheng and Mingshi Yin had been itching for action. They thought their master would avoid conflict. After all, the Black Knights was sent by the palace. Duanmu Sheng and Mingshi Yin were not individuals who did not know the immensity of the heavens like Zuo Xinchan. They really did not expect the old man to be so unyielding!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng shot out immediately.

Fan Xiuwen turned around slowly and said, "Do you really want to do this for the sake of a traitor?"

Lu Zhou replied flippantly, "I'll punish the traitor in due time. This is no place for you to order me around. Tell me the mastermind behind the incident, and I'll leave your corpse intact."

Realization dawned on Fan Xiuwen. He returned to his seat. He cupped his hands and called out, "Four Dark Knights…"

"Yes, my lord," the Four Dark Knights answered in unison.

"Since the Evil Sky Pavilion wants to witness the strength of the Black Knights, we'll grant them their wish."

Bzzt! Bzzt! Bzzt! Bzzt!

Four buzzes rang in the air before two Three-leaf and two Two-leaf Golden Lotus avatars appeared. The avatars, each 30 to 40 feet tall, towered above the others, shrouded in an intimidating aura.
