Chapter 1598: The Pavilion Master is Really Awesome (1)
Faced with such a situation, not only was everyone shocked, but they were confused as well.
Previously, Li Chun admired Lu Zhou and felt that Lu Zhou should be a Dao Saint at the very least. After witnessing Lu Zhou’s exchange with Zhang He, he was even more certain that Lu Zhou’s cultivation was quite high. However, it was not to the extent that the dignified Master of Xuanyi Palace would take a liking to Lu Zhou and forsake his loyal subordinate, right? Not only that, but Xuanyi even punished Zhang He.
Zhang He was confused as well. He bowed and asked, “Your Majesty, why?”
It was fine if Zhang He had remained silent, but Xuanyi frowned as soon as Zhang He spoke. He said, “Zhang He, are my words meaningless to you?”
With these words, Zhang He was further shocked and no longer dared to say anything. He bowed and said, “I’ll carry out my punishment now.”
After saying that, Zhang He glanced at Lu Zhou and the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion before he turned around and left.
Li Chun hurriedly said, “Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang, please calm down.”
Xuanyi looked at Li Chun and asked, “Why? Do you want to be punished along with him?”
Li Chun hastily bowed and said, “I don’t dare.”
“All of you are dismissed.”
“Understood.”
With that, Xuanyi flashed and appeared a few feet in front of Lu Zhou. Then, he said with a smile, “Please.”
Following that, Xuanyi and Lu Zhou vanished at almost the same time.
Everyone was shocked again.
“If I’m not mistaken, I heard His Majesty use the word ‘please’.”
“You must have heard wrongly. No matter how powerful the newcomer is, there’s no way His Majesty would say ‘please’ to him.”
“Fine. Even if I misheard, I definitely didn’t see wrongly. I saw His Majesty smiling at him!”
“…”
At this moment, Li Chun said in a dark voice, “Don’t you have anything better to do?”
With this, the Dark Guards quickly dispersed.
Li Chun was smart. He knew sometimes it was useful to use his status to pressure others, but he also knew it depended on the person. When he first went to Autumn Dew Mountain, he had known Lu Zhou was not simple. He recalled the White Emperor’s token and thought it was not too surprising that Lu Zhou was invited over for a chat. With that, he left the Dark Hall with a smile on his face.
…
In the great hall of Xuanyi Palace, Xuanyi Hall.
The hall was magnificent.
When they arrived, Xuanyi looked at Lu Zhou and asked tentatively, “Do you know me?”
Lu Zhou smiled faintly and pointed at the throne in the hall before he said, “I left a word on that throne.”
Then, Lu Zhou drew in the air with a finger.
An energy seal with the word ‘Stillness’ swept over to the throne, causing it to thrum slightly.
Xuanyi was shocked upon seeing this. Apart from him, only one person knew about the word ‘Stillness’ on his throne. He exclaimed, “Unholy… So it’s you!”
Lu Zhou nodded slightly.
Xuanyi, who found this hard to believe, trembled slightly. After an unknown amount of time, he finally said, “This, how’s this possible? The Great Void said that you’re…”
“Dead?” Lu Zhou turned around with his hands on his back and looked outside the hall as he said, “I’ve mastered the resurrection technique.”
Upon hearing this, Xuanyi discarded his pride and fell to his knees. Then, he bowed respectfully to Lu Zhou and said, “Greetings…”
One second ago, Xuanyi was the dignified Master of Xuanyi Palace, but now, he was just like a polite child. After all, he had already confirmed the ident.i.ty of the person in front of him.
At this moment, Xuanyi was a little at a loss after saying the word ‘Greetings’. He did not know how to address the person in front of him. The entire Great Void referred to him as the Unholy One, but with their relations.h.i.+p, it seemed a little disrespectful to call him the Unholy One.
Lu Zhou sighed emotionally. “In ancient times, humans and fierce beasts were indistinguishable. Humans also didn’t have so many rules at that time. 100,000 years pa.s.sed in just a blink of an eye. Everything changed too quickly.”
“You’re right.”
Lu Zhou said with a straight face, “You can just address me as Pavilion Master Lu just like the others.”
“This…” Xuanyi thought about it for a moment. Then, he shook his head and said, “Back then, you gave me some pointers. If it’s possible, I’d like to address you as teacher.”
“Forget about that,” Lu Zhou shook his head as well and said, “The pointers were nothing. In the end, you still depended on yourself to achieve what you have now.”
At this time, Xuanyi sighed and said, “Regarding your matter at that time, there was nothing I could do.”
In the current world, it was not difficult to completely erase a person from the history books. If one felt that something was wrong, one could take a pen and rewrite it. At the very most, one only needed to expend a little more effort to be thorough with the erasure.
How could Xuanyi not understand this? However, back then, he had wondered why the elder he had respected had suddenly become the fearsome Unholy One in the world.
Xuanyi waved his hand, activating the isolation formation to prevent people from eavesdropping.
At the same time, a dazzling light lit up the outside of Xuanyi Hall, indicating that Xuanyi was not to be disturbed.
Xuanyi did not beat around the bush and asked, “What happened?”
Lu Zhou sighed again and said, “I can’t remember many things.”
A regretful expression appeared on Xuanyi’s face upon hearing this. Then, he said, “I heard that you and Tu Wei fought fiercely, and both of you fell into the abyss after being severely injured.”
Lu Zhou scoffed. “Is Tu Wei worthy to be mentioned in the same sentence as me?”
“…”
Xuanyi nodded. “You’re right.”
Lu Zhou walked to the side and looked at the murals on the wall before he asked, “It’s been 100,000 years, and you still keep these?”
“Back then, you said that as long as I meditated and studied the murals every day, I would definitely gain something. Over the past 100,000 years, I haven’t stopped,” Xuanyi replied.
