Shortly after, the sound of a one-sided fight could be heard from behind the mountain. After all, Duanmu Sheng was already able to suppress Mingshi Yin before he had the Spear Master. Now that he had the Spear Master, there was no question about the outcome of the fight.
…
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou was about to study the Heavenly Writings again when Little Yuan'er ran into the large hall.
"Master, Jiang Aijian has sent a letter."
"Read it."
Little Yuan'er took the letter from his pocket and read aloud, “It is the palace's intention to weaken the Black Knight. There is no need to fear retaliation from the palace, old senior. ”
Lu Zhou was suspicious. The emperor had direct command of the special forces. Why would he want to weaken them?
Little Yuan'er continued reading, “You want to investigate the truth behind the Dragon Fish Village incident, but I'm sorry to say that I, who know everything, don't know anything about this either. However, the emperor was certainly not the mastermind. ” He gritted his teeth when he read the letter. “It is said that Dragon Fish Village Heaven Measuring River holds many secrets. Officers are still seen patrolling around the area occasionally. This is a highly classified, and inaccessible archive. By the way, I gave you two pieces of information for free. One, Sword Freak, Chen Wenjie, had been killed by Yu Shangrong. Didn't I tell you that he would soon die from being ambiguous with his stance? Second, Ren Buping, the Master of Fiend Temple, had come out of isolated cultivation. He had gone to the Green Jade Altar to meet the True Sect. Also, please don't forget the sword you promised me. Ha ha ha!"
Lu Zhou was only interested in the Fish Dragon Village for now. He doesn't care about other things. He was suspicious of the information he had heard. 'There are officers patrolling the Heaven Measuring River Dragon Fish Village even now? If Jiang Aijian called such a small detail a big secret, everything was clearly more complicated than it seemed.'
"Officers patrolling the area?" Little Yuan'er saw his master immersed in his thoughts. He wanted to talk but not dare.
Lu Zhou looked up and saw Little Yuan'er swallow his words so he asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Master, if I tell you, you shouldn't blame me ..." Little Yuan hugged Lu Zhou's arm, trying to act like a spoiled child. If it had been in the past, he wouldn't have dared to do this.
This was a clear sign that Lu Zhou had changed Little Yuan'er and had influence over him. 'I will slowly teach him. I just hope he doesn't get lost on the wrong path in the future.' Lu Zhou shook his head. 'What am I thinking?'
When Little Yuan'er saw his master shake his head, he said excitedly, “I know you won't blame me, sir! I want a heaven-grade weapon too! Something like a Spear Master! I want a big, majestic weapon!”
Lu Zhou hit Little Yuan's head before he reprimanded, “How many times do I have to tell you that your cultivation base is too weak to handle a heaven-level weapon? We will talk about this when you are in the realm of the Newborn Divinity Tribulation. ”
"Thank you?"
"I always keep my word."
Little Yuan'er giggled and said, “Mhm! I will soon break through to the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm! ”
Compared to Lu Zou's other disciples, Little Yuan's loyalty was supreme. He was also often by his side. Naturally, he wished for his cultivation base to be higher. Before his cultivation base was restored, Little Yuan'er was his greatest strength. He was inexperienced in worldly affairs and naive. Compared to the other students, he was much easier to educate.
When Lu Zhou thought about his students, he wanted the mission board to appear. Its primary mission is still to discipline these criminals. The loyalty points of Duanmu Sheng, Mingshi Yin, and Zhao Yue were not too bad. He could still handle the difficulty of disciplining them. The problem lay in those who had left the Evil Sky Pavilion. That difficulty seems insurmountable to those who have left.
Old Eighth's cultivation base was the lowest so there was no need to worry too much. He only relied on his moniker, the Evil King, to intimidate the people in the streets. His intuition worked extremely well as he was a disciple of the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Old First, Yu Zhenghai, Second Old, Yu Shangrong, and Old Seventh, Si Wuya, were the only ones who made Lu Zhou dizzy. Not only did they possess terrifying heaven-level weapons, but their cultivation base was also extremely deep. Moreover, they are not alone. They had a maid who was as strong as the Black Knight. Thinking of this, he found himself missing the Ji Tiandao Peak Form Card. 'If I have countless Peak Shape Cards, I can fearlessly explore the ground.'
"Pavillion Lord ..." Zhou Jifeng entered at this moment. He cupped his hands together and said, “Sixth Master, I mean, Ye Tianxin is awake. He wants to see you.”
Ye Tianxin was imprisoned in the southern pavilion. Without Lu Zhou's orders, no one dared to take him out. Even the female cultivators of the Origin Moon Palace did not dare to do such a thing. Golden Court Mountain lacked hands recently, and they were used as common workers. The female cultivators performed these tasks willingly as well. It was a much better choice than being cooped up in the cold Reflection Cave.
"I refuse," Lu Zhou said coldly.
"Understood." Zhou Jifeng cupped his hands together and left.
With the promise of his master, Little Yuan'er was suddenly motivated to work hard so he went to cultivate as well.
When Lu Zhou saw that he was finally alone, he focused on understanding the Heavenly Writings.
It was almost dusk when Zhou Jifeng walked into the large hall again. “Guru Pavilion, Ye Tianxin said that he will continue kneeling until you come and see him. He knelt at the exit of the south pavilion.”
"Understood." Zhou Jifeng left.
Lu Zhou did not stay in the large hall. He went to the hidden room and continued to focus on learning. 'Throw away your disturbing thoughts. Clear your heart and mind.'
When morning arrived, Lu Zhou finally stopped studying. He feels refreshed. The freshness he experienced was much better than a good night's rest. He stood up and moved his limbs, but everything seemed normal. 'Perhaps an extraordinary power has come into force, but I have yet to find it. After all, it became increasingly clear that understanding the Heavenly Writings was truly beneficial to me.'
At this moment, a soft voice sounded from the other side of the door. "Pavilion Master."
"What's the problem?" Lu Zhou replied as he clicked the button to open the hidden room door.
"Ye Tianxin has been kneeling all night ..."
Lu Zhou waved his hand and said, “Let him. No need to report this to me.”
"Understood." Zhou Jifeng left again.
“Ding! Punishing the evil disciple, Ye Tianxin. Rewarded with 100 achievement points. ”
Lu Zhou noticed the system notification using the word 'punish' and not 'discipline'. Although hate points have been lost, loyalty points are unsatisfactory. If he was not meticulous in giving the punishment, he would not be worthy to bear the title of Patriarch of the Evil Sky Pavilion.
…
When Lu Zhou finally entered the great hall, Mingshi Yin was already there. He saw Mingshi Yin's face swollen and bruised. He decided that it was too troublesome to ask Mingshi Yin what had happened so he simply asked, "How was the interrogation?"
Mingshi Yin bowed and said, “Fan Xiuwen is really stubborn. If I don't remember your words, Master, I will torture!”
“The Black Knights are also experts in torture. It is thought that we can't get anything out of him by interrogating him. ” Lu Zhou was not surprised by the result.
“Should we just kill him? After all he is useless for us to live,” Mingshi Yin said.
Lu Zhou waved his hand and said, "He's still useful."
A Nascent Divine Tribulation realm expert Eight leaves would definitely give him many merit points. However, if he had to choose between finding out about the mastermind of the incident or the secret behind the Fish Dragon Village, Lu Zhou felt that the latter was much more valuable.
"Mingshi Yin."
"Yes sir."
“With this I order you to investigate the Dragon Fish Village in the Heaven Measuring River. Remember, don't act rashly,” Lu Zhou said firmly.
Compared to before, Mingshi Yi was not so happy. He simply replied respectfully, "Yes, sir."
Originally, Lu Zhou wanted to lend him a mount, but he thought it would be too flashy and attract too much attention. Therefore, he rejected the idea.
After all, Mingshi Yin was a Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm cultivator. It was only eight hours that he needed to reach the Fish Dragon Village of the Golden Court Mountain by flying.
Since the Fish Dragon Village was heavily guarded, how did Ye Tianxin investigate the matter when he left the Golden Court Mountain back then?
'I have to ask that bastard about this!' Lu Zhou shook his head. He walked down the stairs and went to the southern pavilion. When he arrived, he saw Ye Tianxin kneeling on the ground from afar, looking extremely weak.
Ye Tianxin opened her eyes. When he saw Lu Zhou, strength seemed to surge throughout his body. He adjusted his posture and greeted him, "M-master ..."
Lu Zhou glanced at him indifferently before shaking his head. "You're not my student."
