Chapter 1527 The Saint Slayer’s Change (2)
It was true that Lu Zhou could not resurrect anyone now, but it might not be the case in the future. When he was immersed in the Scripture of Sermons, he could feel the mysterious power that was beyond his imagination. If his cultivation and strength improved in the future, he might be able to learn the resurrection technique. With these thoughts in mind, Lu Zhou said, “Since you’re so sincere, I won’t stand on ceremony.” After taking the life heart, he continued to say, “I’ll return it to you after I use it.”
The Qin Yuan was overjoyed upon hearing these words. “Thank you, my lord!”
Lu Zhou placed the life heart into his Vast Sky Bag.
This did not escape the Qin Yuan’s notice. When she saw the small brown bag, her eyes lit up immediately. She said, slightly excited, “My lord, may I ask if this is the Vast Sky Bag?”
“You recognize it?” Lu Zhou asked, slightly surprised.
“Of course!” the Qin Yuan said, “Back then, you used the bag to protect a part of the land so it would not collapse. That scene was legendary and talked about until now.”
‘How can he not be the Unholy One? Sacred relics are usually compatible with their owners’ souls. Once the owners die, the compatibility would damage the sacred relics as well. The compatibility between the Unholy One and his items had long reached perfection. In other words, only the Unholy One can use the Vast Sky Bag,’ the Qin Yuan thought to herself. Lu Zhou: “…”
Lu Zhou felt slightly awkward upon hearing the Qin Yuan’s words. The first part of her words was still acceptable, but the second part was just nonsense. After all, even talks of the Great Void opposing the Unholy One were taboo. Under normal circ.u.mstances, no one dared to talk about the Unholy One. Hence, how could people discuss the so-called legendary scene?
“Since you’re determined, you can follow me,” Lu Zhou said lightly.
“Thank you, my lord,” the Qin Yuan said.
Lu Zhou sighed inwardly. ‘I really can’t bear to lie to you, but I have no choice. This is the first time I’m being thanked for lying. I’m really not a good person, I have to pray more in the future.’
The Qin Yuan turned around and gave an order to the others. Then, she alone followed Lu Zhou to the center point.
When Lu Zhou arrived at the side of the center point, he could see a faint light. He glanced at it briefly before he easily crossed the line.
The Qin Yuan stood on the other side of the line with an envious expression on her face. She sighed as she looked at the center point that divided the two places and said with a sigh, “Discrimination has existed since ancient times. Fierce beasts and humans could’ve lived in harmony so why must we struggle against each other?”
Lu Zhou said, “Don’t blame those from ancient times for being heartless. Erecting the center point was just for self-protection. Humans live in the world like how the fierce beasts live in the jungle. Similar to the outside world, the jungle is fraught with danger as well. The law of the jungle isn’t a joke, after all.”
The Qin Yuan acquiesced and said, “I was thinking too much.”
Lu Zhou said, “If you want to follow me, you can no longer refer to me as the Unholy One.”
The Qin Yuan thought to herself, ‘The world is in chaos. Since the Unholy One has yet to recover his cultivation, it’s right to conceal his strength and ident.i.ty.’ Then, she did not hesitate to say, “Alright.”
Lu Zhou pushed his hand out, and a faint energy surged toward the center point. As expected, the energy opened up, forming an arched entrance.
With that, the Qin Yuan crossed over to the other side.” After landing, she said, “Thank you, Unholy… How should I address you?” “Pavilion Master Lu.”
“I understand.”
Lu Zhou turned around and flew in the direction of the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion with the Qin Yuan in tow.
In the afternoon.
It was not very bright. On the huge circular platform, the disciples of the Evil Sky Pavilion and the disciples of the Autumn Dew Mountain were sparring. The outcome was not surprising at all. Hua Yin shook his head and sighed. “We’re no match for them at all.”
“I admit defeat,” Zhou Guang said.
The other disciples from the Autumn Dew Mountain admitted defeat as well. They had already sparred with their counterparts from the Evil Sky Pavilion and had yet to win once. This was especially true when faced with Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong; they did not stand much of a chance of winning at all.
“Master is back?” Little Yuan’er exclaimed as she looked into the distance and saw Lu Zhou flying back with an old woman.
“Who’s that?”
“I don’t know,” Zhu Honggong said as he shook his head. Then, he scratched his head as he continued to say, “Is it possible that she’s someone whom master is interested in?”
Everyone turned to look at Zhu Honggong in unison as though he had grown another head. Their eyes were filled with questions.
Upon seeing this, Zhu Honggong muttered, “I, I was just guessing. Master was old in the past, but now, he’s getting younger and younger. It’s normal for him to think about women. However, this woman is a little old. Master’s wife should be younger and prettier if you ask
me.”
ILII
“Old Eighth.”
Zhu Honggong turned around and asked, “Yes, Eldest Senior Brother?”
“Kneel.” Yu Zhenghai’s voice was dignified when he spoke.
“Ah?”
“Master’s not here, but you’re making up stories about master. Is your skin itching again?” Yu Zhenghai said. These words were reasonable, but who knew what was going on in his mind that he actually added, “However, I do think your words make sense.”
Thud!
Zhu Honggong did not care about anything and kneeled first.
“Greetings, master.”
In just a blink of an eye, Lu Zhou and the Qin Yuan had already landed in front of everyone.
“Pavilion Master.”
After the disciples of the Evil Sky Pavilion greeted Lu Zhou, the elders, guardians, the left and right envoys, and the others bowed and greeted Lu Zhou.
The disciples of Autumn Dew Mountain cupped their fists together at Lu Zhou one after another.
The Qin Yuan nodded and was filled with admiration. No matter what, the Unholy One always had a large number of followers.
“Master, this is…” Zhu Honggong asked with a smile after he raised his head. Before Lu Zhou could reply…
“Don’t ask. In any case, she can’t be master’s wife,” Little Yuan’er said. She felt that the woman in front of them was too old to be their master’s wife.
