My Disciples Are All Villains Chapter 147 - A Neglected Treasure

Chapter 147: A Neglected Treasure

“Someone’s opposing us?” Mings.h.i.+ Yin was puzzled. “How did you find out about this?”

Although Tangzi Town was near the Evil Sky Pavilion, there was still quite some distance between the two.

The people from the Evil Sky Pavilion would not leave Golden Court Mountain for no reason. When their master wanted information about the outside world, he would send Little Yuan’er to Tangzi Town’s relay station. Little Yuan’er had not gone out lately, and there was no need to consider Zhao Yue since she had been tending to her injuries and recovering her cultivation base lately.

“Someone informed me about it.”

“Who?”

“It was a mortal, but I think he’s sent by someone else. I’ve dispatched several female disciples to go undercover and investigate this matter in Tangzi Town. They confirmed there’s something amiss in Tangzi Town.”

Zhao Yue paused before continuing, “There are 3,000 mounted soldiers stationed at Tangzi Town, but that’s nothing to worry about. Apart from that, there are more than 30 red-robed cultivators in and around Tangzi Town.”

Mings.h.i.+ Yin felt slightly speechless. “If I didn’t know better, I would think you’re talking about lost souls and rogue ghouls.”

“Uh… Fourth Senior Brother, that’s not the point.”

“Continue.”

“I suspect this group of red-robed cultivators are the descendants of the Ten Shamans. Two of them came here the other day after all,” Zhao Yue said.

A contemptuous expression appeared on Mings.h.i.+ Yin’s face as he said, “What’s all this fuss about? Master didn’t even give them a hard time.”

“They are from the palace after all. They’re masters of the shadows… They put up a show of being wary of the Evil Sky Pavilion’s strength on the surface, but it’s highly possible that they’re scheming behind the scene,” Zhao Yue said.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin nodded. He studied Zhao Yue for a moment before he said, “Mhm, leave this to me…”

“Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother.”

“How’s your recovery coming along?” Mings.h.i.+ Yin asked.

“I’m about halfway there. My Brilliant Jade Technique has the advantage of natural self-healing. When master completed my cultivation method, it helped me greatly in my cultivation,” Zhao Yue replied.

“That’s good…” Mings.h.i.+ Yin nodded.

Whizz!

The buzz of moving machinery rang from the hidden chamber’s direction.

Lu Zhou sauntered out. He went through the corridor and arrived at the great hall with his hands on his back.

“Greetings, master.”

“Greetings, master.”

Lu Zhou glanced at both of them.

There was no fluctuation in Mings.h.i.+ Yin’s loyalty after he retrieved the box. This surprised Lu Zhou slightly. Si Wuya and Yu Zhenghai were adept in winning others over, and yet, Mings.h.i.+ Yin was not swayed. This meant Lu Zhou’s various actions before this had played their parts.

Zhao Yue’s loyalty had increased tremendously. Although it was not at 70% yet, it was clearly on a rising trend.

Lu Zhou said, “I heard your conversation.”

Mings.h.i.+ Yin bowed and said, “Master… these people have no scruples. They appear as though they want to make peace with the Evil Sky Pavilion on the surface, but they’re scheming against us in the dark. I’m willing to descend the mountain and teach them a lesson!”

Lu Zhou shook his head and said, “I don’t think it’s that simple… Since Mo Li knows about the Evil Sky Pavilion’s strength, she would’ve come prepared.”

“What do you mean, master?”

“The Ten Shamans were masters of Formations. Although Wu Sheng and Wu Guan tried their best to conceal their cultivation bases, I know they aren’t any weaker than a Four-leaf cultivator.”

Mings.h.i.+ Yin and Zhao Yue were stunned to hear this.

In the cultivation world, there were many low-level cultivators. One would only be regarded as a newly-initiated cultivator once they entered the Brahman Sea realm and could travel in the air. When a cultivator entered the Divine Court realm, it could be regarded as a minor achievement. Only when a cultivator was in the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm could he be considered as an expert and established his name in the cultivation world.

The difference in strength from One-leaf to Three-leaf was not that great. However, from Four-leaf and above, the addition of a single leaf meant a huge leap in power.

Wu Sheng and Wu Guan appeared ordinary, but they, surprisingly, had a Four-leaf cultivation base!

“Master, are you telling me that we should let them do as they please under our noses?” Mings.h.i.+ Yin asked.

Lu Zhou shook his head. If the Peak Trial Cards were not extremely precious, he would have gone over and crushed them all with his own hands. He mulled over it for a moment before he asked, “Where’s our flying chariot?”

Mings.h.i.+ Yin said, “The cloud-penetrating flying chariot is parked at the north pavilion. It’s been a while since it was last used.” He thought about it for a moment before he added, “Master, you have mounts, don’t you? Riding a flying chariot… isn’t befitting of your status.”

“My mounts can’t carry too many people with… Since they want to cause a scene, we’ll bring a few people and play with them.”

A thought appeared in Mings.h.i.+ Yin’s mind when he heard Lu Zhou’s words. ‘Master is going to bring his disciples out to have a killing fest… It’s been a long time since we last did something like this! I’m getting gooseb.u.mps just thinking about it!’

Mings.h.i.+ Yin hastily bowed and said, “Master, I’ll have the flying chariot cleaned at once! It’ll be ready in no time!”

“Go, then!”

Mings.h.i.+ Yin ran out excitedly.

Lu Zhou looked at Zhao Yue. She had joined the pavilion quite early on, but her cultivation base was more than a tad lower than Ye Tianxin’s cultivation base. She was still in the peak Divine Court realm. Clearly, the defects in the Brilliant Jade Technique had affected her greatly. On top of that, she did not have a weapon that she could use. She would not be of any help to him. When he thought about this, he realized Zhao Yue and Little Yuan’er both needed a weapon.

‘Little Yuan’er has the Nirvana Sash. What weapon should be given to Zhao Yue? Life Cutter?’ Lu Zhou pictured Life Cutter in his mind. ‘It’s huge and heavy. Will it be awkward for a delicate lady to wield such a weapon?’

Lu Zhou asked, “How’s your Brilliant Jade Technique coming along?”

“In reply to your question, master, I’m improving a lot. My cultivation base has been improving since you completed my cultivation method. I won’t let you down, master,” Zhao Yue said earnestly.

Lu Zhou nodded and said, “Alas, you’re cultivating the Brilliant Jade Technique. I don’t have a suitable weapon for you at the moment.”

Zhao Yue hastily fell to her knees and lowered her head. “I’m content with what I have. I can ask for nothing more, let alone asking you to bestow a weapon to me!”

Lu Zhou noticed that her loyalty went up by 2%. He was surprised that his offhand remark had this effect. Based on this, he could see how harsh Ji Tiandao was to his disciples. Finally, he waved his hand and said, “You’re dismissed.”

“I’ll take my leave, master.” Zhao Yue stood up and left the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Lu Zhou was still thinking about the weapon. ‘The box?’ He returned to the hidden chamber and looked at the two halves of the box.

“This box can withstand a blow from Unnamed. It’s definitely not something ordinary.” The cogs in Lu Zhou’s mind began to turn. ‘Si Wuya, Yu Shangrong, and Yu Zhenghai must’ve wanted to see what was in the box as well. Clearly, they weren’t able to do that.’

Lu Zhou noticed that all of the box’s six faces had grooves. There were three on the left and three on the right.

Lu Zhou waved his hand.

Clack! Clack! Clack!

The three grooves on the left contracted and connected into a strange shape!

He waved his hand again.

The three grooves on the right a.s.sembled themselves as well. They formed the same shape as the grooves on the left side.

“What’s this?” Lu Zhou did not recognize this. There did not seem to be such a shape among the Eighteen Arms! It was not round nor was it square. It was an irregular shape.

“Ding! Recovered weapon, Tear Stain Box. Default form: boxing gloves.”

This box was actually a weapon!

Upon closer inspection, Lu Zhou discovered the two items did, indeed, resemble boxing gloves.

A pair of boxing gloves that could withstand attacks from heaven-grade weapons! There was no doubt this was a heaven-grade weapon as well! It seemed like this box had been a neglected treasure from the very beginning!
