Invincible Teacher's
Chapter 88: Fan Xiuwen

The Dark Knight did not reply and caught up with the others. Since the five of them were wearing masks, none of their expressions were visible. They left the Black Knights left at the foot of the mountain as they walked up the stairs leading to the Evil Sky Pavilion.

In the middle of the stairs, Fan Xiuwen suddenly stopped and asked indifferently, "Who is hiding in the shadows?"

A flash of black clothes floated between the trees on the right before jumping from one tree to another. Little Yuan'er stood on top of the branch. He frowned and said, "Devicious." He has described them as ugly, not scary.

One of the Darkness Knights spoke in annoyance, "My master, the Evil Sky Pavilion doesn't seem to show any respect to us!"

Fan Xiuwen raised a hand to cut him off. Then they continued to climb the mountain. If he could accept Mingshi Yin killing his four knights but could not tolerate this humiliation, how could he be respected as the leader of the Black Knights? When he was at the top of the blacklist, there was no lack of contempt thrown at him. Regardless of how terrifying the humiliation was, he did not put it into his heart. His years of training made it easy to overlook such things.

Little Yuan'er pulled a face towards Mingshi Yin before he flew back up the mountain. Perhaps, he was the only one who could climb up and down the mountain freely because he was loved by his master.

Mingshi Yin shook her head helplessly and said, “My sister has always been like this. Please don't take him seriously.”

Fan Xiuwen said indifferently, "That's fine."

A moment later, they arrived at the Evil Sky Pavilion and slowly walked into the large hall.

Mingshi Yin turned her gaze across the hall. He found Zhao Yue and Ye Tianxin also present. They were sitting in chairs, looking exhausted. Meanwhile, Duanmu Sheng, Zhou Jifeng, Pan Zhong were standing on the left.

Fan Xiuwen placed one hand on his straight stick-like back. The four subordinates stood in pairs behind him.

The large hall was silent at this moment. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the five visitors.

Fan Xiu Wen looked at Lu Zhou, the old man sitting at the highest spot in the hall. He was stunned when their eyes met. Rumor has it that Ji Tiandao's days will be counted. Ji Tiandao's cultivation for 1,000 years would return to nature after his time was up.

Fan Xiuwen had always had the talent to measure the aura of one's life. Indeed, this old man only had about fifteen years left inside him. However, he could not measure the old man's cultivation base. If he were to forcefully try to investigate the old man's cultivation base, it would be equivalent to a blatant provocation. This would not be the most rational course of action, of course. After a while, he said in a non-degrading or domineering manner, "Fan Xiuwen saluted Old Senior Ji."

At the same time, the four subordinates of Fan Xiuwen cupped their hands to greet as well.

Lu Zhou could not see their faces. Expressions calm. One would have difficulty reading his thoughts based on his expression. He said humbly, "Sit down." His tone of voice was similar to the tone that a person of higher status would use when talking to those of lower status.

Fan Xiuwen cupped his hands together before sitting down. “Heard you wanted to meet me, Senior Ji. I didn't dare to delay so I led the Black Knight here without stopping. I wonder what things you would like to discuss with me, Senior Ji?

Lu Zhou stroked his beard. He pointed at Ye Tianxin and casually said, "I'm sure you recognize this person ..."

Fan Xiuwen shifted his gaze from under his mask. He saw Ye Tianxin sitting on the chair opposite him. He's very pale. He shook his head and said, "Unfortunately I didn't do it." He sounds honest.

Little Yuan'er suddenly giggled and said, “This is my master's sixth disciple. She's my older sister, Ye Tianxin.!” He made a spitting sound before saying, "Traitor!"

“So, he is the sixth disciple of Evil Sky Pavilion. I'm sorry for my rudeness, ” Fan Xiuwen said softly.

Lu Zhou nodded and calmly said, "Do you know about the Fish Dragon Village?"

Fan Xiuwen's body instantly fell silent. However, his thick and heavy armor and mask hid his expression. No one knows what he's thinking. After a while, he shook his head, indicating that he did not know about the Dragon Fish Village. After all, the village was too small. As the leader of the Black Knight, why did he remember the small village? He asked, "Why are you asking about the Fish Dragon Village, old senior?"

"Ye Tianxin," Lu Zhou said impressively.

Ye Tianxin slightly shuddered. He propped himself up and spoke without a tone, “The Fish Dragon Village has a population of about 354 villagers. About 150 years ago, it was completely destroyed ..." He didn't keep talking after that.

Fan Xiuwen nodded and said, “So. I am truly sorry to hear that the Fish Dragon Village has been destroyed. But ..." He turned to Lu Zhou and asked, "Is this the reason you called me here, senior elder?"

"That's right," Lu Zhou said indifferently.

"What does this have to do with me?"

“Notes of castles and local archives state that I was the one who destroyed Dragon Fish Village.” Although Lu Zhou was unable to see Fan Xiuwen's expression, it did not escape his view that Fan Xiuwen's body had moved slightly once he finished speaking. He wondered if this showed Fan Xiuwen's shock or nervousness.

"Is that so?" Fan Xiuwen asked, a hint of shock could be heard in his voice.

When Lu Zhou spoke of himself as the suspect, everyone could see an unnatural expression on Ye Tianxin's face.

“The Black Knights are special forces of the Great Yan Imperial Family. They only operate in the shadows. It is only natural that the palace archives do not mention his strength, ” Lu Zhou said calmly.

Fan Xiuwen cupped his hands and said, "Every cultivator knows that the Black Knight is a special force of the Imperial Family."

"The Black Knights have never been to the Heaven Measuring River?" Lu Zhou asked.

When Fan Xiuwen heard the question, he acted as if he was expecting it. After all, he was a smart man. As soon as Lu Zhou pointed at Ye Tianxin, he knew Lu Zhou would ask about the matter.

Fan Xiuwen laughed hoarsely, his laughter echoing in the pavilion. “Alright, let's put aside the incident in Fish Dragon Village for now. Actually, I came here today to discuss a certain matter with you, senior elder.

"Speak," Lu Zhou said briefly.

"The palace has a message for you." Fan Xiuwen's attitude suddenly changed respectfully. “The palace will not hold the Evil Sky Pavilion accountable for its various deeds in the past. This included the killing of Mingshi Yin towards the four Black Knights. The Palace was willing to let the past pass, but there was one condition.” He paused for a moment before continuing saying, “The Evil Sky Pavilion should not interfere with the business of the Great Yan Imperial Family for the next ten years. ”

Silence descended on the large hall.

Some students exchanged looks.

Even Fan Xiuwen's four trusted subordinates didn't know about this. However, they were relieved that the mission from the palace was only this limited. This request is simple. There were many cultivators in Great Yan. Some experts were wary about the power within the palace and would not interfere in the various affairs of the palace. Some of them were offered amnesty by registering and becoming part of the faction of influential people.

After a short pause, Fan Xiuwen added, “The Black Knights do not want to become enemies with the Evil Sky Pavilion and we also have no rights or powers. I hope you can grant this request, old senior. ” After that, he no longer speaks. After all, he had already stated his reason for being here.

Everyone looked at Lu Zhou, waiting for his answer.

However, Mingshi Yin broke the silence first with a laugh. He said, “The last person in this hall who rambled in the right way himself has .. flown with a stork to the Western Heaven. Are you trying to follow in his footsteps? ”

Fan Xiuwen cupped his hands together. "I don't dare."

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and finally said, "Leng Luo."

Fan Xiuwen's heart thumped slightly when he heard this. His body involuntarily stiffened for a moment.

Lu Zhou looked at Fan Xiuwen with a sharp look and said, "Are you trying to threaten me?"
