My Disciples Are All Villains Chapter 1753 - The Boy Who Cried Wolf

Chapter 1753: The Boy Who Cried Wolf

Lu Zhou had many things to attend to now and did not have time to chat about the past. If he had the time, he might well have absorbed the four power cores. When he absorbed the power cores, some of the disjointed images and scenes in his mind had begun to piece themselves together. With that, the memories of the Unholy One he had obtained back then became clearer and clearer.
After Lu Zhou left, Xuanyi and Ouyang Ziyun flashed outside the Dao hall at the same time. Both of them sighed softly.
Xuanyi moved to stand next to Ouyang Ziyun and said with an expression of worship on his face, “I always thought you’re just the Holy Maiden’s teacher. I didn’t expect you tobe from the same generation as the Unholy One.”
Xuanyi respected highly experienced elders and seniors who had seen too much of the world the most. No matter how talented or powerful the younger generation was, their state of mind and experience could never compare to the elders. If they wanted to improve, they could only humbly ask for advice from the elders.
“The past is like the clouds and mist. It’s best not to mention it,” Ouyang Ziyun said.
“Is the inscription at Mount Weinan really left behind by teacher?” Xuanyi asked curiously.
Ouyang Ziyun replied, “That’s just some nonsense Brother Lu left behind when he was bored, using his finger as a sword and the Dao to create a formation.”
“...”
Xuanyi said, “That’s not nonsense. It impacted the later generation. Since ancient times, no one knew who wrote it. Due to a lack of evidence, I couldn’t confirm it. I really didn’t expect I was right. It was teacher, after all.”
Ouyang Ziyun smiled. “After living for a long time, one would naturally encounter a lull period during cultivation. As such, one would usually find other ways to vent. Brother Lu has done many boring things…”
“Such as?” Xuanyi’s curiosity grew, and his eyes shone with eagerness.
“Such as preaching to the world or writing classics and passing them to the world. Oh, he also built the Southern Sky City when he was bored. And the Thousand Serenities Tower south of Xuanyi Palace was cut open by him. There were rumors that Ying Long, and the weapon, the Golden Amber Battle Axe, were trapped in the tower, but it’s not like that. The Golden Amber Battle Axe has long been destroyed, and Ying Long had his tendons pulled out by your master.”
“...”
Xuanyi’s mouth was slightly agape.
‘Heavens! Just how many shocking things did teacher do?’
Then, Xuanyi said enthusiastically, “Mr. Ouyang, I want to talk to you all night long!”
“?”
Ouyang Ziyun saw Xuanyi’s fervent gaze and felt that something was wrong. He quickened his pace and walked away.
“Mr. Ouyang! Wait for me!”
…
News of Lu Zhou manifesting his avatar in Xuanyi Palace’s upper core spread like a wildfire in the Great Void. Previously, they were just rumors, but now, it had been confirmed that the Unholy One had returned.
Needless to say, the Sacred Temple also received news of it.
At this moment, in the Sacred Temple.
After receiving the report, Ming Xin asked, “Where did Wen Ruqing and Guan Jiu go?”
“Your Majesty, the two Supremes are in their respective cultivation grounds.”
“Tell them to come and see me.”
“The two Supremes told me in advance that they were going into seclusion and that to inform Your Majesty about it when Your Majesty asked.”
Ming Xin frowned. “Tell them to come over.”
Naturally, the subordinate could not refuse Ming Xin regardless of Wen Ruqing and Guan Jiu’s words. He could only accept Ming Xin’s order and leave.
…
At this moment, Wen Ruqing and Guan Jiu’s expressions were not very good. They paced back and forth anxiously.
Guan Jiu muttered over and over again, “What should we do? What should we do? What should we do? He’s really back! I knew it! I knew it!”
“Can you stop it? It’s really annoying!” Wen Ruqing said.
“Back at Nine Peaks Mountain, you were still suspecting Great Emperor Ming Xin,” Guan Jiu said.
Wen Ruqing scoffed. “Didn’t you agree with me as well? Apart from that, without your approval, would I have sent a message to Rou Zhao Hall?”
Inwardly, Wen Ruqing thought he was lucky he did not run into the Unholy One.
“What should we do?” Guan Jiu asked.
Wen Ruqing did not answer the question.
Guan Jiu said, “The path we chose only leads to darkness… Let’s go see Ming Xin.”
“You’re right. It’s the only thing we can do now.”
With that, before Ming Xin’s subordinate arrived, they made their way to the Sacred Temple.
…
At the same time.
The upper core at Xuan Meng Hall was as chaotic as it was at Xuanyi Palace’s upper core.
Cultivators crowded the entire place, protesting loudly.
Compared to the upper core at Rou Zhao Hall, it was more chaotic at the upper cores of Xuanyi Palace and Xuan Meng Hall.
Yu Zhenghai, Yu Shangrong, Zhao Yue, and Ye Tianxin could get close to the upper core so they could only observe from afar for the time being.
“What should we do now? There are too many people so it’s going to be troublesome,” Zhao Yue said.
The quartet had to be careful. If they showed themselves, the chaos might worsen.
After all, Lu Zhou had injured Wu Xing from Xuan Meng Hall.
Let alone the masses from Xuan Meng Hall’s territory, how could the cultivators of Xuan Meng Hall allow Lu Zhou’s disciples to enter the upper core to comprehend the Great Dao?
“We can only wait for the Supremes from the Sacred Temple to show up. It’s strange though. What’s taking them so long?”
“There’s no rush. We have plenty of time. There are at least 200 years before all of the upper cores collapse,” Yu Zhenghai said.
The quartet continued to watch at the edge of the crowd, blending in. There were too many people, and as long as they did not attract attention to themselves, no one would notice them.
At this moment, an old man standing near the upper core suddenly shouted, “Everyone!”
Everyone turned to look at the old man immediately.
The old man continued to say loudly, “I just received a piece of shocking news! The Unholy One went to the upper core at Xuanyi Palace and killed tens of thousands of people there! He used his demonic and evil avatar to slaughter many warriors guarding the upper core at Xuanyi Palace! He’s cruel, and his hands are stained with blood! We must not back down. We must not let the owners of the Great Void Seeds, who are the Unholy One’s chess pieces, comprehend the Great Dao!”
Everyone was in an uproar.
Yu Zhenghai, Yu Shangrong, and the others looked at each other in dismay.
Yu Zhenghai said, “If what he said is true, I’m afraid we’ll be hunted by the Unholy One…”
Yu Shangrong shook his head and said, “I’ve heard about the rumors about the Unholy One. I always feel like he has many similarities with master…”
“Perhaps, they are talking about master…” Ye Tianxin said.
Zhao Yue said, “Master is the Unholy One? This…”
Yu Shangrong said with a faint smile on his face, “Actually, it’s not that far-fetched. Old Seventh let us rely on the Sacred Temple to comprehend the Great Dao. For so long in the Great Void, all his plans seemed to revolve around or have something to do with the Unholy One. Don’t you think Old Seventh has already figured out everything? Moreover, if master is really the Unholy One, don’t you think that many things make sense?”
Realization dawned on the other three.
“If that’s the case, then master’s method is really vicious… extremely vicious!” Yu Zhenghai said as he shuddered. When he recalled what he had heard, he thought the beatings he received in the past were nothing.
After a while, Yu Zhenghai said again, “No matter what, these are just our speculation. Unless we see it with our own eyes, we can’t easily believe things. After this, I’ll attract their attention. At that time, Second Junior Brother will enter the upper core.”
Zhao Yue and Ye Tianxin said in unison, “We’ll go with you, Eldest Senior Brother!”
“Thank you, Eldest Senior Brother, Fifth Junior Sister, and Sixth Junior Sister,” Yu Shangrong said as he cupped his fists at the other three people.
Yu Zhenghai looked at the sun as he said, “It’s getting late. Let’s go, junior sisters!”
“Okay!”
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The trio flew toward the upper core, attracting everyone’s attention.
Yu Zhenghai shouted, “The Unholy One is here! Run!”
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Three avatars appeared in the sky and flew into the distance.
Zhao Yue and Ye Tianxin had both comprehended the Great Dao. Their speed was extremely fast. This was especially true for Ye Tianxin who had grasped the great law of space. In just a blink of an eye, they had reached the horizon.
Yu Zhenghai’s words made everyone panic. It was even worse when they saw the three fleeing avatars. After all, even if such experts fled, what were they waiting for?
Run!
The old man, who had announced the news earlier, had wanted to seize the opportunity to stir up hatred toward the Unholy One. He did not expect someone to lead the situation in another direction. He thought to himself, ‘This is bad.’
“Don’t go!”
“The Unholy One won’t come!”
Alas, it was already too late.
Someone, who was running past the old man, cursed, “Bast*rd! Are you trying to get us killed? He killed tens of thousands of people! Run!”
Fear was contagious and spread easily in crowds.
The cultivators fled in all directions.
At the same time, voices could be heard from the distant horizon.
“Ah! The Unholy One is here!”
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound of fierce battles rang from the distant horizon as well.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Yu Shangrong flew toward the upper core swiftly. He was decisive and agile. Without any hesitation, he rushed toward the entrance of the upper core.
Boom!
A loud explosion rang in the air, and the upper core shook.
When everyone turned around, they saw the upper core glowing with a bright light.
Those who were fleeing stopped in their tracks and watched the upper core’s changes.
“Run! What are you waiting for?!”
“The Unholy One is here! If we don’t leave now, it’ll be too late!”
With that, a large number of cultivators fled the scene. They were no longer spirited and hot-blooded like before.
However, seeing the changes in the upper core, the old man flew up into the sky and manifested his avatar. Then, he transmitted his voice to the crowd.
“Someone has broken into the upper core! You’ve all been tricked!”
Those who had left would naturally not return. As for those who still had some courage left, they stood where they were and looked at the upper core.
The upper core buzzed, signaling that someone was trying to break in.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Many cultivators returned quickly and surrounded the upper core. Some of them, who saw Yu Shangrong approaching the upper core, were shocked.
“It’s true! Someone is breaking into the upper core!”
“Someone’s causing trouble! Don’t be afraid! Someone’s deliberately using the Unholy One to frighten us! Don’t be afraid!”
Although quite a large number had fled, there were still many that remained.
“It’s okay! We got him now!”
“How dare you lie to us!”
Buzz!
Yu Zhenghai, Zhao Yue, and Ye Tianxin appeared in the sky.
“The Unholy One is coming! Why aren’t you running away?” Yu Zhenghai asked with a hint of urgency.
“You bast*rd! You lied to us!”
“Take them down!”
An overwhelming number of energy swords, energy sabers, and energy seals swept toward Yu Zhenghai and the other two women.
Yu Zhenghai frowned. ‘This group of people isn’t easy to fool.’
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The attacks kept coming, and the trio kept deflecting them.
There were even a few Dao Saints who hid themselves in the crowd as they attacked.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
“Eldest Senior Brother, watch out!”
Yu Zhenghai said in a deep voice, “Sovereign Descent!”
