My Disciples Are All Villains Novel - Chapter 693
Chapter 693: Who Can Threaten Me?
Under the shine of the golden light, two miniature red lotus avatars appeared above the two cultivators. The red lotus spun and seemed exceptionally dazzling.
The other cultivators broke out in a commotion immediately.
“Red lotus? Why are their lotuses red?”
“What Other Tribe is this?”
“A red lotus?!”
Men would always fear and feel wary about the unknown.
Although Lu Zhou had a blue lotus, he had a golden lotus as well. With this, the others thought he was using some secret technique. Similar to how the Fiend Zen would turn one’s energy black. For this reason, nobody dwelled on Lu Zhou’s blue lotus.
However, this was their first time seeing red lotuses. Their shock was not any less than when they saw the wolf king avatars of the Other Tribesmen from Rongxi and Rongbei. Even so, they knew about the Other Tribes and could easily investigate them. However, what about the red lotus? Where did it come from?
The cultivators moved to have a better look at the two cultivators.
The two red lotus cultivators looked frightened. They did not expect Lu Zhou to possess a treasure that could reveal their avatars. With this, they had been thoroughly exposed. Without any hesitation, as though they had a tacit understanding, both of them summoned their avatars.
Two red lotus avatars appeared and shot into the air.
The red lotus cultivators were trying to run away!
Alas, they were already surrounded, to begin with.
Although Lu Zhou did not have much power left, there were still Nan Gongwei and Feng Yizhi. How could they possibly get away?
When the red lotus avatars took flight, the cultivators in the air attacked at the same time.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
They attacked without questions
Nobody without a Seven or Eight-leaf cultivation base could have withstood this, let alone the two red lotus cultivators who were only at the Five-leaf stage.
Shortly after, two Eight-leaf golden lotus avatars tackled the red lotus avatars at greater speed.
Boom! Boom!
The two red lotus cultivators fell!
“You think you can get away?” Nan Gongwei said with a sneer.
Feng Yizhi and Nan Gongwei retracted their avatars and landed next to the two red lotus cultivators.
“Senior Ji, how should we punish them?”
Lu Zhou looked at the two red lotus cultivators who were sprawled on the ground and said, “Seal their cultivation bases.”
“Understood!”
With Feng Yizhi and Nan Gongwei personally making a move, the two red lotus cultivators had their cultivation bases firmly sealed. They were dragged before Lu Zhou, where they remained on their knees.
Lu Zhou stared at the two of them with a deep gaze. He asked sternly, “From where have you entered?”
One of the two red lotus cultivators coughed before he said, “At this point, you can do whatever you want with us!”
“I’ve already sent the information of the golden lotus domain back to the red lotus domain… If you dare lay a finger on us, our people will return the favor tenfold!”
Bam!
Nan Gongwei kicked the duo. He glared at them and said, “Is this really the time for you to act tough?”
“Act tough? Senior Ji, do you really dare to kill me? I swear on the heavens that the Sky Martial Court will annihilate the golden lotus domain!”
Lu Zhou seemed exceptionally calm.
On the other hand, the other cultivators were brimming with fury. How dare these people challenge Evil Sky Pavilion’s Master under the heavens?
“If our life stones shatter, the Sky Martial Court will be alerted immediately. If you know what’s best for you, you’ll let us go!”
Lu Zhou walked over.
Feng Yizhi and Nan Gongwei were about to say something when Lu Zhou raised his hand to stop them.
As Lu Zhou advanced toward the duo, the duo retreated, and their confidence seemed to falter.
“Are you threatening me?” Lu Zhou asked tonelessly.
“I… I think so…” Despite being frightened, the duo remained unyielding. At this time, they could only ensure their survival by intimidating this Nine-leaf cultivator with the red lotus domain.
“Even if a Nine-leaf cultivator were here, I wouldn’t think much about him, let alone two Five-leaf cultivators like you.”
“Hm?” The red lotus cultivator kneeling on the left suddenly saw a cold glint of light. When he looked up, he saw the old man wielding a delicate sword with black runes. Black? He could not help but shudder.
“Senior…”
The blade was drawn across his throat.
The remainder of his words died with him as blood gushed out from his throat.
It was a simple, clean, and thorough move.
The red lotus cultivator did not seem to have time to process his death as life left him. His chest was dyed red by the blood gushing out from his throat. The scarlet shade resembled a red lotus avatar. Then, his head lolled to the side.
Thud!
He fell down and stopped breathing.
“Ding! Killed a target. Reward: 1,500 merit points. Domain extra: 1,000 merit points.”
His comrade, the remaining red lotus cultivator here, widened his eyes.
Lu Zhou shifted his gaze to the red lotus cultivator and said, “What do you have to say?”
“I have nothing to say. At this point… you can do whatever you want with me.” The red lotus cultivator turned his head to the side, seemingly resigned to his fate.
Lu Zhou grabbed the red lotus cultivator’s neck. “I killed Jiang Wenxu, Gu Ming, Chi Yao, Qiong Qi… Tell me why you don’t think I can kill you?”
When the red lotus cultivator heard the strings of names coming out of Lu Zhou’s mouth, a fearful expression appeared on his face again.
Lu Zhou lifted him up by his neck until his legs dangled in the air and his face flushed red.
He tried to pry Lu Zhou’s fingers away. Alas, Lu Zhou’s grip was firm.
“You’re only a Five-leaf cultivator, but you don’t know your own place!”
“Spare… Spare me…” He was frightened by Lu Zhou’s cold gaze.
“Too late.”
Crack!
Lu Zhou clenched his hand, snapping the red lotus cultivator’s neck.
His head lolled to the side; he was no longer breathing.
Lu Zhou released his grip on the red lotus cultivator’s neck, and the red lotus cultivator fell to the ground with a thud.
The other cultivators were relieved when they saw this, but they did not dare to make a sound. Although there were no flamboyant and ostentatious moves or energies, they felt terrified. Lu Zhou’s earlier words were etched into their minds, and they vowed inwardly that they would never try to threaten an elite like the Patriarch of the Evil Sky Pavilion.
“Ding! Killed a target. Reward: 1,500 merit points. Domain extra: 1,000 merit points.”
With the deaths of the two red lotus cultivators, Lu Zhou earned 5,000 merit points.
This was much easier than killing Qiong Qi.
Lu Zhou was troubled by the fact that he needed more merit points. Since the two cultivators had crossed his bottom line, how could he live up to his title of Old Villain Ji if he did not kill them?
For a time, nobody said anything.
Lu Zhou no longer cared about the dead men. He looked at Nan Gongwei and Feng Yizhi and asked, “Why are both of you here in Yu Province?”
Nan Gongwei snapped back to his senses. He wiped the sweat off his brows and said, “S…Senior Ji…”
“There’s no need to be nervous. I’ve always been merciful.”
“We learned that a beast was attacking a city. Hence, we thought of coming out to train,” Nan Gongwei replied.
“Elder Chu Nan said you intend to preach about the Nine-leaf stage… How could we miss such a thing,” Feng Yizhi added.
They were stuck at the Eight-leaf stage for a long time now. If there was a way to reach the Nine-leaf stage, they would be more than happy to learn.
The cultivators in the skies were overjoyed when they heard this. There were only rumors about this before. Now that the patriarch himself had confirmed it, how could they not feel elated? Even if they were not at the Eight-leaf stage yet, what they would learn would certainly be of value in the future. Hence, they bowed and said in unison, “Your magnanimity is something we should all learn from, Senior Ji!”
“You’re our role model!”
Finally, the current matter had been dealt with.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded. He turned to look at Bi An and said, “Let’s return to the Evil Sky Pavilion.”
The others bowed. “Safe journey, Senior Ji!”
Lu Zhou leaped onto Bi An’s back and hovered in the air. At the same time, he looked at the little Qiong Qi next to him and sighed. He was barely in the air when he saw the civilians in the vicinity swarmed out of the streets.
Perhaps, Bi An’s appearance was too frightful, the commoners thought that another beast had appeared. Hence, they scattered and ran back into their houses.
Lu Zhou immediately produced a Disguise Card. He shattered it in his palm.
A Nine-leaf golden lotus avatar towered in the air. The nine leaves were dazzling and eye-catching.
Bi An sped forward with the 150-foot avatar.
The golden radiance shone on Yu Province City.
The cultivators worshipped him.
When the civilians saw this, realization finally dawned on them.
As far as the eye could see, people were bowing down and kowtowing at Lu Zhou.
“Ding! Worshipped by 30,000 individuals. Reward: 30,000 merit points.”
