My Disciples Are All Villains Chapter 1575 - Great Yan’s Faith

Chapter 1575 Great Yan’s Faith
Just as Little Yuan’er and Conch were about to leave the abyss, they heard someone cursing nearby.
“Which blind person dares to destroy a tombstone?! How wicked! Their ancestor would be ashamed of them!”
Little Yuan’er and Conch looked in the direction of the voice and saw a figure.
One of the cultivators, who accompanied the duo here, said, “After the collapse of Dunzang’s Pillar of Destruction, many people from the nine domains come here.”
Compared to the other Pillars of Destruction, Dunzang was much safer now since there were fewer fierce beasts.
“Who’s he?’
Just as this question was asked, the other person began to curse again. “Son of b*tch! How dare you destroy a tombstone? Don’t let me catch you! Otherwise, I’ll rip you into shreds after I skin you alive!”
Little Yuan’er said curiously, “Let’s go and have a look.”
“Miss Ci, it’s important for us to return now.”
“This is also important.”
Little Yuan’er ignored the cultivators’ attempt to stop her and walked over.
Conch followed suit.
With this, the others had no choice but to follow closely behind.
When Little Yuan’er arrived and saw the person, a huge smile appeared on her face. “Great Saint Duanmu?!”
Duanmu Dian was shocked as well. He did not expect someone would be able to approach him without him noticing.
When Shang Zhang’s men saw Duanmu Dian, they were puzzled. “Didn’t Great Saint Duanmu return to the Great Void? Why are you here?’
They all knew Duanmu Dian was the guardian of Dunzang’s Pillar of Destruction.
Duanmu Dian looked at his surroundings with a sorrowful expression on his face as he said, “After all, I’ve guarded the pillar at Dunzang for a long time. I still have some attachments to it. As the guardian of this place, it’s only normal for me to come and have a look,
right?”
“Of course! Of course!” Little Yuan’er said with a giggle. Then, she asked, “Great Saint Duanmu, who were you scolding earlier?”
“It’s nothing. I was thinking about someone I hated in the past. I really wish I could throw away this tombstone!” Duanmu Dian said before he stomped on the ground, causing it to cave in.
Little Yuan’er nodded. “Alright, continue then. We’ll take our leaves first.”
“I won’t send you off.”
With that, Little Yuan’er, Conch, and Shang Zhang’s men flew away into the distance.
Duanmu Dian sighed in relief. Then, he turned to look at the caved-in ground and said, “Old Lu, don’t blame me. I hope your spirit in heaven will protect us.”
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou and Whitzard appeared at the runic passage in the golden lotus domain’s Evil Sky Pavilion.
When they walked out of the Runic Hall, Lu Zhou saw the Golden Court Mountain.
This was the place where he had stayed for a long time. It would be a lie to say he was not slightly emotional now that he had returned to this old place.
Lu Zhou could not help but let out a long sigh. Then, he patted Whitzard and flew toward the main hall of the Evil Sky Pavilion. Halfway there, he saw the four elders.
Perhaps, Lu Zhou’s cultivation had reached the peak so they did not notice him.
Looking at them cultivating diligently, Lu Zhou could not help but feel emotional again. After a moment, he said in a soft voice, “Four elders, how have you been?” The four elders raised their heads to look at the sky immediately.
Since Lu Zhou had been in the abyss for so long, with his long hair and long beard, he looked rather unkempt. For a moment, the four elders could not recognize him. However, they were very familiar with Whitzard and the divine mark robe.
Leng Luo, Zuo Yushu, Pan Litian, and Hua Wudao bowed in unison as they greeted Lu Zhou loudly. “Greetings, Pavilion Master.”
Although they looked calm, they were extremely excited. It had been 100 years, after all.
Lu Zhou nodded. He leaped off Whitzard’s back and landed in front of the four elders. He stood with his hands on his back and nodded.
Following that, Pan Zhong, Hua Yuexing, and Zhou Jifeng rushed over from afar. When they saw Lu Zhou, they were stunned. For a moment, they thought their eyes were playing tricks on them. They rubbed their eyes before they looked at Lu Zhou again. There was no doubt the Pavilion Master of the Evil Sky Pavilion was standing in front of them. They immediately kneeled on one knee and greeted him. “Greetings, Pavilion Master!”
“No need for formalities,” Lu Zhou said with a wave of his sleeve.
After the trio rose to their feet, Lu Zhou asked, puzzled, ‘There are so few of you? Where are the others?”
With this question, the four elders lowered their heads guiltily. Then, they kneeled on one knee and said, “The four of us failed to protect the little girl, and she was taken away by the Great Void.”
Lu Zhou frowned. His mood sank to the bottom immediately. He asked in a low voice, “What happened exactly?”
The four elders recounted everything that had happened after they left Fragrant Valley. Then, they also spoke about how the disciples were going to go their separate ways; one in each domain to maintain the balance.
After that, Pan Litian said, ‘I heard that the Great Void has an object that can locate us. However, I don’t think it’s that simple. That person called Qi Sheng is very cunning. It’s as though he knew exactly where we would appear.”
“Qi Sheng?” Lu Zhou frowned in confusion.
“He’s the new Hall Commander of Tu Wei Hall. However, it was rather strange. His cultivation was far above mine, but when we fought, I could feel he was holding back,” Pan Litian said.
Zuo Yushu said, “Brother, I don’t know why, but I feel like he’s somewhat similar to your seventh disciple. He said he’s the seventh child in his family. Could it be that Mr. Seventh is still alive?”
It was not that the other three elders did not think about this. After Little Yuan’er was captured, they thought about this all day long. They felt Qi Sheng’s way of doing things was rather similar to Si Wuya.
“However, Yu Zhenghai personally dropped his body into the Endless Ocean. How could he still be alive?” Hua Wudao said, perplexed.
Even Lu Zhou was puzzled. Nothing could deceive his eyes. He trusted his strength very much. At least until now, there was no reason to doubt it. 100 years ago, he had tried to observe his seventh disciple with the power of sight, but the system only gave him two words: unavailable target. This proved that his seventh disciple was dead. However, the Qi Sheng whom the four elders mentioned made him suspicious.
“If Qi Sheng is Mr. Seventh, why did he help the Great Void capture all his fellow disciples?” Hua Wudao asked again.
There were many things that were hard to explain. Moreover, they had no way to prove Qi Sheng’s identity.
“Well, it’s not like you don’t know his ways of doing things. The most dangerous place can also be the safest place. We can’t rule out the possibility that he did that to protect everyone,” Leng Luo said.
“You have a point.” Hua Wudao nodded.
“Otherwise, there’s no need for him to keep everyone alive,” Leng Luo added.
“Then, is Qi Sheng truly Mr. Seventh?”
“If it’s Mr. Seventh, does it mean he’s mastered the resurrection method?”
While the four elders were discussing, Lu Zhou was also wondering if Qi Sheng was his seventh disciple. After a moment, he said, “There’s no need to think about it at this moment. If it’s really Old Seventh, then it’s a good thing. If it’s not…” He scoffed before he continued saying in a dark tone, “Then, I’ll make him pay a heavy price.”
Whether Qi Sheng was a friend or foe, it both made sense. In any case, everyone was very skeptical. After all, they had witnessed Si Wuya’s death. Moreover, it was very difficult to master the resurrection method; even Lu Zhou could not do it.
Nonetheless, everyone could not help but feel hopeful. What was life without hope?
“Where are the others?” Lu Zhou asked.
“The Left and Right Envoys, Shen Xi, and Li Xiaomo have returned to the black lotus domain. Now, the strength of the black lotus domain has greatly increased because the Black Tower Council has continuously expanded over the past 100 years. In order not to implicate the Evil Sky Pavilion, they returned to the black lotus domain,” Pan Zhong explained.
“Guardian Meng has gone to stay at the Thousand Willow Monastery as a guest. As long as Pavilion Master gives the order, he’ll return immediately.”
“Kong Wen and his brothers have returned to their hometown in the green lotus domain. Many forces in the green lotus domain have been keeping an eye on the Evil Sky Pavilion. The black lotus domain’s Dark and Light Alliance and the royal family had taken Miss Hongfu away. In exchange, they agreed to support the Evil Sky Pavilion.”
“With Qin Naihe traveling between the golden lotus domain and the green lotus domain, and Venerable Master Qin’s care for the Evil Sky Pavilion, everything can be considered to be quite peaceful,” Pan Zhong said in a casual tone. However, the fact was life had been hard on the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion.
For some reason, news of Lu Zhou’s death had spread. With the biggest support gone, many in the cultivation world began to distance themselves from the Evil Sky Pavilion. If it were not for those few forces supporting the Evil Sky Pavilion, the Evil Sky Pavilion would have long been razed to the ground.
After listening to Pan Zhong, Lu Zhou sighed.
As the saying went, ‘When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter’. When the leader fell, the followers would disperse as well. However, on the other hand, the reason the Evil Sky Pavilion was still standing was also all thanks to the hard work of these few followers.
Lu Zhou said, “You’ve all suffered during the time I was away from the Evil Sky Pavilion.”
“Pavilion Master, don’t say that! Now that you’ve returned, our Evil Sky Pavilion will definitely regain its glory,” Pan Zhong said emotionally.
Lu Zhou nodded. “Inform everyone about this. Tell them to return!”
“Understood!”
Everyone bowed. They knew that at this moment, the faith of Great Yan had returned!
