They left the inn and drove east towards Runan City in a horse carriage.
In the middle of the journey, Jiang Aijian blocked their path as he held the sword in one hand while the other hand held the half-eaten pear. He moved towards the carriage as he said with a grin, “Master, I will tag along. ”
Zhao Shuo had a confused expression on his face as he asked, “Brother, we will deal with the villain. Are you not afraid? ”
“Of course I'm scared. I felt as if I was going to die of fear. However, since master is here, there is nothing to worry about, ” replied Jiang Aijian.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and asked, “Do you have any news?”
Jiang Aijian just smiled. Although he was shameless and cunning, he was truly an expert at obtaining information.
Lu Zhou did not care about Jiang Aijian's methods of obtaining information as long as there was a result. He gestured with his hand for Jiang Aijian to board the ship before gesturing for the horse carriage to continue its journey.
Jiang Aijian looked straight ahead and said in a whispering tone, “Someone from the palace is here. ”
After hearing this, Lu Zhou remained silent as he stroked his beard.
Jiang Aijian continued to say, “Someone from the palace is the mastermind behind the incident on the holy altar. However, leaving aside your deep cultivation base, I don't think they will attack senior Buddhist monks no matter how unhappy they are. ”
Lu Zhou nodded.
The horse carriage trembled as it increased its speed.
Jiang Aijian looked at the road ahead and said, “The fourth villain of the Evil Sky Pavilion, Mingshi Yin, developed the Bluewood Heart Technique. It was a troublesome cultivation method. His opponent would have difficulty conquering him. When you meet him later, please don't hold back, sir. You should drop him with one strike and not give him a chance to escape. ”
Lu Zhou said, “You seem to know a lot about the Evil Sky Pavilion. ”
A confident expression appeared on Jiang Aijian's face as he said, “I won't hide this from you, sir. When Ji Tiandao was attacked by ten great elites .. “He paused for a moment to point at himself before continuing,” I was there! “
Jiang Aijian looked proud as he continued to say, “It was the battle of the century! Ten great elites! Half of them had a Six-leaf Avatar, and the other half had a Seven-leaf Avatar! However, they still could not defeat Ji Tiandao who possessed the Eight Leaf Avatar! “
Lu Zhou was shocked inwardly when he heard this even though his expression remained calm. He, naturally, had access to this memory. However, he really did not expect Jiang Aijian to personally witness that fight.
Jiang Aijian continued to babble, “The battle lasted for three days and three nights. In the end they just fought a draw. The old villain, Ji Tiandao, was injured. Even now I still can't understand him. How did the ten great elites fail when they laid siege to the Gold Court Mountain after a month? ”
Lu Zhou did not continue on the topic. Instead, he asked, “You're afraid of him?”
Jiang Aijian said with a sigh, “Since I witnessed that great battle, I vowed to stay away from that person. He's too scary! How can humans be so scary? ”
Little Yuan’er quickly covered his mouth with a hand as a small burst of laughter came out of his mouth. It didn't take long before he started laughing out loud.
Jiang Aijian did not think this was strange. After all, he was already used to the ridicule of this young girl. He decided to let it go.
Zhao Yue looked confused. He didn't know if he should laugh now.
“Stop!” Zhao Shuo's voice sounded suddenly.
The horse-drawn carriage stopped.
Jiang Aijian jumped from the horse carriage. He was shocked when he saw the chaotic scene before him and the head that was hung on the city gate. He exclaimed, “How cruel!”
Lu Zhou also got off the carriage. He saw a human head covered in blood.
Zhao Shuo said with a deep frown, “That villain must be close .. I've already contacted some heavenly Court realm cultivators to search the area. We should be able to find him soon. ”
Lu Zhou said, “The one who died was a riding robber. ”
“That's not important,” Zhao Shuo said honestly, “I'll do anything to catch the criminal. ”
Lu Zhou turned to look at Zhao Shuo. He shook his head. ‘It means nothing to talk to him. ‘
A mocking and crazy laughter suddenly resounded in the air. “You think you can catch me? Dream!”
“Do not be afraid. ”
“Er... I am not afraid.” Jiang Aijian scratched his head.
Several figures shot past the roof in the air.
Crazy laughter continued to echo in the air.
“This is the villain!”
Everyone looked towards the laughter. A man with strange eyes and ragged black hair wearing a white robe shot towards them at high speed as he scoffed and hurled insults at the surrounding cultivators. “Come! Chase me! “
Zhao Shuo's eyes widened in anger as he unsheathed his sword.
Whooshing sound!
Zhao Shuo said before he left, “Master, I will leave the safety of the citizens of Runan City in your hands. ”
Lu Zhou looked at the incoming Mingshi Yin calmly. His eyes observed the cultivators who were chasing Mingshi Yin as well. His expression did not change at all.
Since Lu Zhou was here, Jiang Aijian was not too worried. However, he felt a bit strange as he was used to observing from afar as he hid in a corner. This was the first time he had observed in the open.
Mingshi Yin's laughter drew closer. I'm getting bored! As soon as he finished speaking, he sped up, covering a distance of several hundred meters in just the blink of an eye.
“Next Divinity Tribulation Realm Born!” Jiang Aijian's words shocked everyone.
Based on Mingshi Yin's speed, it was clear he was a Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm cultivator.
Jiang Aijian gulped. She felt ashamed. As an early stage Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm elite as well, he felt the people from the Evil Sky Pavilion were much stronger in comparison.
As everyone looked towards Mingshi Yin who was charging towards them, Zhao Shuo shouted, “Villains from the Evil Sky Pavilion! Die!” He slashed his sword in the air. His sword was enveloped by destructive energy as it slashed towards Mingshi Yin's face.
Mingshi Yin laughed as she brushed off the sword with one hand.
Bang out!
The sword shattered in an instant!
Mingshi Yin said arrogantly, “You won't be able to do anything to me with this technique!” Suddenly, he stopped as he muttered softly, “T-the old man .. looks like master!”
Zhao Shuo stumbled back in surprise. He thought he had infuriated the criminal and was now a target. This criminal is someone who kills without batting an eyelid. He quickly retreated to Lu Zhou's side.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard calmly. He could not blame his other students if they did not recognize him because the Reversal Card had changed his appearance a little. However, there was no way Mingshi Yin could not recognize him.
Mingshi Yin frowned as she studied Lu Zhou. After a while, his expression changed drastically. He quickly dissipated the surrounding energy and descended.
Jiang Aijian hurriedly took a step back and unsheathed his sword. “It's bad! The criminals are coming down! ” However, when he saw Lu Zhou, he was confused by how calm Lu Zhou was.
As soon as Mingshi Yin landed, she quickly ran into the group. She screams in joy, “Teacher!” When he arrived in front of the group, he bowed before he lifted the tip of his robe with his right hand and knelt down with a thud. He said respectfully, These “Murids respect teacher!”
Jiang Aijian and Zhao Shuo were confused.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard before waving a hand. “Stand up and talk. ”
Mingshi Yin smiled humbly. His arrogance from before had completely vanished. Before Lu Zhou could say anything, he asked carefully, “Teacher, didn't we agree to meet at Like The Clouds Inn? What brings you here?”
Zhao Shuo's eyes widened in understanding as he quickly retreated to the side. She stuttered, “You .. y-you ... you ...”
Yuan’er small said angrily, “First your mouth! See if I'm not pulling your tongue if you keep offending my employer! “
Jiang Aijian was dumbfounded. ‘It's good. Is it too late for me to escape now?
