Chapter 1579 A Group of Weirdos (1)
Qin Renyue turned to look at the source of the voice in shock.
Qin Renyue and Qin Naihe were both Venerable Masters.
Qin Naihe had the help of the Great Void soil so his improvements over the years had surpa.s.sed Qin Renyue.
The duo could clearly sense a special energy outside the training hall.
Both of them could not be more familiar with the voice.
“Brother Lu? Is it really you?” Qin Renyue was pleasantly surprised.
Just as Qin Renyue was about to walk out, the special energy swept into the training hall.
That familiar face and aura. If this was not the Pavilion Master of the Evil Sky Pavilion then who could it be?
Qin Naihe kneeled on one knee immediately and said, “Qin Naihe greets the Pavilion Master!”
“Rise.” Lu Zhou waved his sleeve.
Following that, the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion walked in one after another.
At the same time, Qin Renyue said to the disciples of the Qin clan waiting outside the training hall, “Quick! Prepare the good wine and a sumptuous feast. I want to treat my old friend today!”
“There’s no need to go to so much trouble,” Lu Zhou said as he took a seat at the side, “You and Qin Naihe have made great contributions for the Evil Sky Pavilion to be safe all these years.”
“It’s what I should do,” Qin Renyue said with a sigh, “Unfortunately, my strength is limited. There are many people in the Evil Sky Pavilion, and I couldn’t protect everyone.”
Qin Naihe chimed in from the side, “Over the past 100 years, the cultivators from the green lotus domains and the other domains have become stronger as well. Most of them have 16 to 17 Birth Charts.”
With this, the Qin clan’s position in the green lotus domain was not completely at the top. Moreover, there was the Great Void watching them; the feeling was like having a knife held against their backs.
“It hasn’t been easy for you. There’s no need to blame yourselves,” Lu Zhou said, “If you have any request, you can say it.”
Qin Renyue waved his hand and said, “There’s no need to talk about these between friends. Otherwise, it’d be an insult to our friends.h.i.+p!”
Lu Zhou nodded.
Qin Renyue asked curiously, “What’s going on? Rumors of your death are rife in the cultivation world.”
“I was in closed-door cultivation,” Lu Zhou replied very simply.
“No wonder…” Qin Renyue sighed. “The Evil Sky Pavilion didn’t have an easy time over the past 100 years. Moreover, your disciples were taken away by the Great Void. With my strength, I really couldn’t do anything.”
“It’s not your fault,” Lu Zhou said, “Since I’m back, I’ll bring them all back.”
Qin Renyue chuckled. “Brother Lu, you’ve been in seclusion for 100 years. You must have made great progress again.”
Lu Zhou’s cultivation was a combination of the golden and blue avatars. Although he had the strength of a supreme being, he was not a true supreme being yet. Currently, he only had 27 Birth Charts; he still needed to activate another 9 Birth Charts to become a supreme being.
Qin Renyue continued to ask, “What do you plan to do next, Brother Lu?”
After coming out of the abyss, Lu Zhou had already thought about what to do. The most important thing was to ascertain his disciples’ safety. Then, he would try to activate all 36 Birth Charts as quickly as possible to become a true supreme being. After being in the abyss for 100 years, he could tell that it would not be a problem to activate the remaining 9 Birth Charts. As long as he had enough top-quality life hearts, there would be no problem at all.
Finally, Lu Zhou replied to Qin Renyue, “I’m going to ascend to the sky.”
Qin Renyue was shocked. “You’re going to ascend to the sky?!”
“Of course,” Lu Zhou replied nonchalantly.
Qin Renyue said, “As far as I know the four emperors, and the masters of the ten halls of the Great Void and the Sacred Temple are all supreme beings. There are also the twelve Dao Saints. Brother Lu, are you joking with me?”
Lu Zhou looked at Qin Renyue unblinkingly and asked, “Do I look like I’m joking?”
“No.” Qin Renyue laughed.
The duo continued chatting for a while longer after that. Somehow, it felt like something was missing now that the ten disciples of the Evil Sky Pavilion were not around.
Finally, when Lu Zhou was about to leave, Qin Renyue said, “Brother Lu, why are you in such a rush to leave? It’s not easy for me to see you. You should stay for a few days at least.”
“No,” Lu Zhou shook his head and said, “I still have matters to attend to.”
There were too many things that had acc.u.mulated over the past 100 years that Lu Zhou had to deal with, after all.
“Since that’s the case, I won’t force you to stay. Go then,” Qin Renyue said straightforwardly.
With that, Lu Zhou led the others and left.
On the flying chariot.
Lu Zhou stood next to the helm and looked ahead as he asked everyone, “What are your cultivation bases like now?”
Pan Litian said, “I’m a slow learner. I’m just about to become a Venerable Master.”
“I’m the same as Old Pan,” Leng Luo replied.
Zuo Yushu said, “I pa.s.sed my third Birth Trial three years ago. I’m now a Venerable Master.”
Hua Wudao scratched his head with an awkward expression as he wondered why he was always in the last place. After a moment, he said, “I’ll continue to work hard.”
Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng initially wanted to report to Lu Zhou as well. However, when they heard the four elders’ words, they wisely kept their mouths shut.
In fact, most of them had the help of the Great Void soil so their significant improvement over the past 100 years was within reason.
Qin Naihe cupped his fists at the four elders and said, “Congratulations! It’s truly admirable!”
“You’re not bad either,” Pan Litian said with a smile.
At this moment, Pan Zhong, who was manning the helm, said, “The runic pa.s.sage is up ahead.”
Everyone nodded.
After entering the runic pa.s.sage, the flying chariot appeared in the sky.
“We… Are we going to Fragrant Valley?” Indeed, the flying s.h.i.+p was flying in the direction of Fragrant Valley.
“I wonder what happened after 100 years…”
“Everyone has their own destiny so there’s no need to worry so much. It’s been like this since ancient times,” Pan Litian said.
“Well said.”
