My Disciples Are All Villains Novel - Chapter 670
Chapter 670: A World of Difference
The current situation was highly related to the continuous decline of the Thousand Willow Monastery. Over the years, the Thousand Willow Monastery had trouble recruiting members. They were facing a talent drain. The older elites were fading into the background, and its former days of glory seemed to be no more.
On the other hand, the Flying Star House was the complete opposite. They had many talented members. With their numerous disciples, they were one of the rarer huge organizations. After the Nine-leaf elite, Ye Zhen, led the members to kill the high-rank beast, the luan, it boosted the Flying Star House’s reputation even more.
A few years ago, the Thousand Willow Monastery finally had a few presentable disciples. The Flying Star House’s elder, Lu Song, frequently visited the Thousand Willow Monastery. On the surface, it seemed like he had come in good faith and spoke nothing but pleasant words. He appealed to both the logical side and the emotional side of things. In truth, this was an act of suppression and threat of a larger force over a smaller one. The Thousand Willow Monastery had no choice but to give their disciples away.
The little girl, Wuwu, was a special case. Initially, nobody noticed her talents. After all, in a world where it was the survival of the fittest, those with larger fists and higher talents were preferred. A cultivator with extremely weak offensive power like Wuwu would not be favored by most sects. This was how things were before she displayed her amazing healing power.
Hence, Lu Song used his tried-and-true strategy. He visited Thousand Willow Monastery again. Today was his second visit.
“Are you sure?” Yu Shangrong smiled faintly.
“Of course.” Lu Song sounded easygoing, but he was clearly determined.
Yu Shangrong nodded as he looked at the trio and said, “My apologies.”
Upon seeing this, the trio became even more arrogant. They raised their heads and thought it was not wrong for them to insult Yu Shangrong.
At this moment, the sword on Yu Shangrong’s back left its scabbard again. He faded out of focus before three figures appeared on the left, the center, and the right. Then, a red flash shot past the trio.
Yu Shangrong reappeared behind the trio. He hovered in the air with his arms crossed as the Longevity Sword returned to its scabbard.
The trio’s eyes were widened in fear.
Lu Song hovered in the air with a frown on his face as he looked at his three disciples.
Ji Fengxing and Wuwu who stood behind the railing looked at Yu Shangrong in confusion. ‘Did he just charge forward and return without doing anything?’
When a person moved at an incredibly high speed, he or she would be able to trick the eyes.
At this moment, the trio felt a cold sensation on their necks. Scarlet lines appeared on their necks and widened until blood began to gush out. With this, they collapsed to the ground.
…
“Ding! Killed three targets. Reward: 30 merit points. Domain extra: 300 merit points.”
…
Ji Fengxing’s eyes widened, and he shuddered inwardly. ‘He… he killed them without any warning? T-they’re the members of the Flying Star House! This is bad!’
Even the courageous Wuwu did not expect Yu Shangrong to kill the trio without any warning.
Lu Song who was shocked by this sudden turn of events leaped into a fit of rage. “How dare you?!” He raised his hand, and a red palm seal shot toward Yu Shangrong.
Yu Shangrong easily sidestepped it.
Lu Song dove as he cried out, “I must kill you today. You’ll accompany my three disciples in death!” He kept shooting out spinning palm seals in rapid succession.
Yu Shangrong flashed in and out of sight as he dodged the palm seals.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Lu Song’s attacks grew fiercer, but Yu Shangrong did not condense his Qi into energy.
Upon seeing this, Wuwu could not help but say, “Big brother, use your energy!”
Yu Shangrong had kept his energy concealed all this time. This was because his energy and avatar were golden. If he used them, his identity as an outsider would be exposed. At that time, even the Thousand Willow Monastery might act against him.
Yu Shangrong smiled and said, “He’s not worth it.”
Lu Song was enraged by this statement. He summoned his avatar.
Whizz!
A Six-leaf red lotus avatar appeared in the air.
With this, Lu Song was clearly much stronger than before.
The red energy seals in the skies were dazzling that it was difficult to see anything else in the surroundings.
Yu Shangrong spun up in the air before his figure flashed out of sight again.
Grand technique.
“You won’t get away.” Lu Song gave chase.
In an instant, the two of them disappeared.
Ji Fengxing rubbed his eyes. He looked at the empty sky and the three corpses on the ground. He was at a loss. He paced up and down as he muttered, “What are we supposed to do? This is bad! What should we do? What should we do?!”
Wuwu looked at the three corpses and said, “Big brother is fierce!”
“Uh…”
‘Aren’t you focusing on the wrong thing?’
“Wuwu, wait here. I’ll notify the elders of the Thousand Willow Monastery. Since members of the Flying Star House have died, they’ll come reckoning sooner or later,” Ji Fengxing said with a sigh. If this matter escalated, there would be a feud between the sects.
Wuwu suddenly said, “Don’t move.”
“What?”
“Let’s wait for big brother to return. Don’t tell the elders yet,” Wuwu said.
Ji Fengxing thought about it for a moment. If he reported this matter, he would also be admitting he was the cause of the conflict. The elders of the Thousand Willow Monastery might bring his head to the Flying Star House to apologize. In the end, he might be made into a sacrificial lamb. That would not do.
Ji Fengxing sighed as he looked at the three corpses again. The only thing he could do was wait for the senior’s return.
…
Meanwhile, Lu Song unleashed his grand technique twice and shot into a dense forest. He saw that Yu Shangrong was no longer flying forward. Instead, Yu Shangrong was hovering in the air with his back facing him, carrying his Longevity Sword. He said, “I’ve told you that you won’t be able to escape.”
Yu Shangrong turned around slowly and looked at Lu Song. With a faint smile, he said, “I like the scenery here.”
“Hm?”
“If this were in the past, I wouldn’t have resorted to a method like this.” Yu Shangrong was slightly disdainful of the tactic of luring one’s enemy into a trap.
Lu Song was puzzled by that statement. However, he did not want to waste his time on Yu Shangrong so he did not dwell on Yu Shangrong’s words. Instead, he summoned his avatar.
The Six-leaf red lotus avatar towered in the air and sailed toward Yu Shangrong with a crushing force.
Lu Song moved his palms at the same time and pushed down. Numerous palm seals appeared immediately.
“Indeed, the scenery is nice. This shall be your grave… what?”
Whizz!
An Eight-leaf golden lotus avatar appeared!
Boom!
The Six-leaf red lotus avatar was instantly shattered by the larger avatar. It looked like a red glass bottle had crashed against a golden mountain.
Lu Song who had never seen a golden avatar before was, naturally, shocked and baffled. It did not take long before fear welled up in his heart.
At this moment, Yu Shangrong drew his Longevity Sword.
The sword vibrated.
Snowy Mountain!
Yu Shangrong’s shadows filled the air!
The golden energy sword wrapped around the Longevity Sword that glowed faintly red.
Energy swords rained down like snow and hit Lu Song’s body. The attacks were precise.
Yu Shangrong’s strength was so overwhelming that Lu Song could not even put up a fight.
“Traceless Sword.” Yu Shangrong continued to wield the Longevity Sword. He continued attacking the injured Lu Song with energy swords.
Yu Shangrong’s expression was calm as he shot to the left, the right, up, and down.
From the beginning until the end, it was a one-sided battle.
After his avatar was destroyed, Lu Song was even more powerless to fight back. Every strike of Yu Shangrong’s sword sent him flying. He would ping-pong from one side to another by the strikes.
It was clear there was a world of a difference between Yu Shangrong and Lu Song’s strength.
