read My Disciples Are All Villains - Chapter 1069

Lan Xihe was shocked. She turned around instinctively and studied the expressionless young man in front of her. The more she looked at him, the more familiar he looked to her. When she saw the frown on the young man’s face, a complex and indescribable emotion rose in her heart. It was really difficult to associate the dignified young man in front of her with the old Pavilion Master Lu she knew. After a moment, she shook her head; she did not believe Si Wuya’s words.

Meanwhile, Gongsun Yuanxuan laughed heartily before he said, “Young man, I believe that you’re from the Evil Sky Pavilion so there’s no need for you to do this.”

Si Wuya shook his head and looked at Gongsun Yuanxuan as though he was looking at a fool. He tried to look at Gongsun Yuanxuan from his master’s point of view and nodded; as it turned out, this was how it felt to have the status and strength to look down on others. Following that, he only said, “Of course, there’s a need for it…”

Gongsun Yuanxuan said, “I have no enmity with the Evil Sky Pavilion. I don’t see why both of you want to intervene. After all, it’s better to gain a friend than an enemy…”

At this moment, Lu Zhou finally said, “I already have many enemies; another one won’t make a difference…”

Lu Zhou’s tone, aura, and attitude were similar to when he looked old.

Lan Xihe exclaimed in surprise, “Pavilion Master Lu?”

Lu Zhou walked over with a straight back. Then, he said to Gongsun Yuanxuan tonelessly, “Lan Xihe can’t die yet…”

Gongsun Yuanxuan was slightly on guard. He surveyed his surroundings warily. His expression was solemn as he looked to the left and the right before he looked outside. After a while, he asked, “Fine, I’ll take it that you’re Pavilion Master Lu. Let me ask you: Is the Evil Sky Pavilion really intent on intervening?”

How could Gongsun Yuanxuan give up when his goal was so close at hand?

Lu Zhou said, “It can’t really be considered intervening. Like I said, Lan Xihe can’t die yet. Before I change my mind, it’s best if you leave now.”

“…”

This was the first time Gongsun Yuanxuan was spoken to in such a manner. To begin with, he had doubted Lu Zhou’s identity. Moreover, he was of the opinion that the stronger one was, the less likely one would brag.

“Very well… If that’s the way you want it to go, let’s settle this according to the old rules,” Gongsun Yuanxuan said. He got into his fighting stance in the center of the training hall.

At this time, Lu Zhou said indifferently, “My words are the rules.”

“…”

Gongsun Yuanxuan felt stifled by Lu Zhou’s words. He was the Grand Tutor of Great Ming’s royal court, after all, and was respected by tens of thousands of people. Even the emperor would not speak to him in such a manner. Nevertheless, he endured it and said politely, “Today, I won with one-and-a-half moves against Tower Master Lan. Since the Evil Sky Pavilion insists on intervening, I can only ask to exchange a move with Pavilion Master Lu.”

“Is this your so-called old rule?” Lu Zhou asked.

“Please begin.” Gongsun Yuanxuan’s words were marvelous. With those words, not only could he show off his cultivation base and strength to the Evil Sky Pavilion, but he could also take down Lan Xihe later. He would not give up because the Evil Sky Pavilion interfered. It was just a sparring session. After he achieved his goal and eradicated the White Tower Council, he was certain he would be able to win the favor of the Evil Sky Pavilion by offering them benefits.

“Why do you have to seek trouble?”

At this time, Gongsun Yuanxuan moved his arm around. His astrolabe spun and seemed to increase and decrease in size.

‘Astrolabes can also be used in this manner?’ Lu Zhou thought to himself as he looked at Gongsun Yuanxun.

Gongsun Yuanxuan moved to the left and the right. Soon after, shining palm-sized talismans that looked as though they were written with white calligraphy brush appeared around his hands. At the same time, his feet did not stop moving.

At this time, Lan Xihe reminded Lu Zhou, “Pavilion Master Lu, you have to be careful. The Grand Tutor is very skilled in the cultivation methods of the schools of Confucian, Buuhism, and Taoism. These talismans gather the heaven and earth’s essence before channeling it into the astrolabe so his strength is much greater than before. With this, he can easily tear down the white tower.”

Currently, the cracks that resulted from Lan Xihe and Gongsun Yuanxuan’s previous exchange had already been mended. The reason the 100,00-foot white tower managed to withstand the test of time and the corrosion of time was all thanks to the special Dao inscriptions in the white tower. Compared to the 3,600 Dao inscriptions in the Black Tower Council, there was no clear winner; each had its own merits.

At this moment, the white talismans had already occupied half of the training hall.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The white talismans flew into the astrolabe as though they were being pulled into it by a vortex.

Lu Zhou looked at Gongsun Yuanxuan with great interest. He instinctively raised his hand before he put it down again. It was as though he was watching a monkey performing martial arts.

After all the white talismans entered the astrolabe, Gongsun Yuanxuan waved his hands around, turning his astrolabe into the size of a small ball.

The entire process only took a few breaths, but Lu Zhou looked at it carefully.

After the astrolabe that had been shrunk to the size of a snowball shone with a brilliant white light, Gongsun Yuanxuan said, “I deliberately slowed down so I could demonstrate it to Pavilion Master Lu. Pavilion Master Lu, are you ready?”

Lu Zhou said, “Using the heaven and earth’s essence in such a manner is a waste…”

“Please advise.” As soon as Gongsun Yuanxuan’s voice fell, he moved, leaving a trail of afterimages in his wake. When he discovered Lu Zhou had no intention of moving, he felt somewhat indignant. After all, he had 12 Birth Charts; how could he tolerate being underestimated to this extent?

Gongsun Yuanxuan crossed his hands before he pushed them forward.

A white light flashed in the training hall.

Meanwhile, Lu Zhou suddenly froze. He felt a strange feeling in his Dantian’s sea of Qi before he suddenly discovered he was stuck. Did he go too far this time?

Swoosh!

The burst of blinding white light stirred the Primal Qi in the training hall. Violent winds raged as the Dao inscriptions began to flash in a frenzy.

Lan Xihe flicked her sleeve, calming down the air in the training hall with the Dao inscriptions. She called out, clearly weakened and no longer capable of fighting, “Pavilion Master Lu.”

Even Gongsun Yuanxuan felt this move was too powerful. In his opinion, even if Lan Xihe was at the peak of her strength, she would still have to treat this move with caution.

After the light dissipated, Gongsun Yuanxuan withdrew his hands and looked ahead.

“…”

Lu Zhou was still in the same position and posture as before. No one knew what was through his mind at this moment.

‘What’s this strange feeling? Why is my Dantian’s sea of Qi blocked?’

Lu Zhou looked at his Critical Block Cards and saw that they had decreased by one. At this time, he was without any defenses. At most, he was comparable to a cultivator at the ninth stage of the Body Tempering stage.

On the other hand, Gongsun Yuanxuan was thoroughly shocked. His heart raced as an uneasy feeling rose in his heart when he saw Lu Zhou was completely unharmed.

‘What went wrong?’ Gongsun Yuanxuan was in disbelief. He was convinced something must have gone wrong. He pushed back with one foot, retreating dozens of meters. Then, he said loudly as he spread his arms, “The effect of the potion is still here. Thousand-hand Buha Seal!”

Gongsun Yuanxuan’s astrolabe covered his body. At the same time, a circle of palm seals appeared around his astrolabe. Following that, the attack shot out like a bolt of lightning.

At this time, Lu Zhou was still ruminating over the problem he encountered. He tried to mobilize his Primal Qi in his Dantian’s sea of Qi and found they were no longer blocked.

Alas, the Thousand-hand Buha Seal landed on Lu Zhou’s body at this time. The trace amount of Primal Qi he had mobilized was negligible.

Boom!

Countless Buha seals fell from the sky.

At the same time, cracking noises rang from the white tower.

Gongsun Yuanxuan’s eyes widened in anger. He withdrew his hand and looked around motionlessly.

“No!”

Gongsun Yuanxuan used his grand technique along with his astrolabe as he rose into the air. The 12 Birth Charts lit up at the same time.

Boom!

The attack passed through the white tower as though they were the air.

Meanwhile, Lu Zhou still did not move. He was like an immovable mountain. As usual, his expression was calm.

Gongsun Yuanxuan’s heart was thumping so fast that he felt as though he could hear the sound of it thumping in his chest. Following that, he began to cast his grand technique in a frenzy. His every move was perfect, displaying the results of his thousands of years of cultivation.

The grand technique mixed the best techniques from the schools of Confucianism, Buuhism, and Taoism and could be used ten times. The attacks seemed to be able to cover the sky as they fell on Lu Zhou.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The white tower cracked, but the cracks were quickly mended. This happened repeatedly. Every time a crack appeared, it would be mended.

The earth shook, causing the nearby snowy mountain to shake from the violent tremors as well.

At this time, Gongsun Yuanxuan had almost used up all of his most powerful moves. His eyes turned bloodshot as he glared at the young man in front of him. Was the young man really the Pavilion Master of the Evil Sky Pavilion? He felt that something was amiss but could not put his finger on it. After a moment, he said, “The last move!”

This move was different from the previous one. This move’s attacks were continuous. Energy swords began to appear in the air.

Similar to when the white talismans first appeared, Gongsun Yuan Xuan moved the astrolabe around with movements that looked as though he was practicing Tai Chi. As he moved, more and more energy swords began to appear. Soon enough, the energy swords filled the entire training hall.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

As the energy swords flew around Gongsun Yuanxuan, he took a deep breath before he charged out with his astrolabe above his head.

At the same time, the energy swords lined up in a neat row and shot out as well.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Lu Zhou frowned slightly and said, “You’ve used all your strength to attack, but I haven’t even made a move yet!”

Following that, Lu Zhou raised his big hand and pushed it out.

A blue Great Seal of Fearlessness flew out.

Boom!

Gongsun Yuanxuan’s energy swords vanished immediately. Caught off guard, he was sent flying back immediately. The seal that contained the supreme mystic power landed on his face and chest heavily as his eyes widened in horror. He tried to control his body and flipped in the air. When he finally landed, he groaned in a muffled voice as he staggered backward. At the same time, blood trickled out from the corner of his mouth.

From the beginning until the end, Lu Zho had only used one move; the simple and unassuming Buddhist’s Great Seal of Fearlessness.

With this, Gongsun Yuanxuan switched from attacking to defending. He started making Tai Chi movements again, manifesting a Taoist seal. “I’ll defend, you attack.”

“Very showy, but useless.” Lu Zhou liked living targets like Gongsun Yuanxuan the most. He moved quickly and struck at the white Taoist seal with the might of the supreme mystic power.

Crack!

The Taoist seal shattered immediately. The blue energy broke through Gongsun Yuanxuan’s defenses tyrannically, striking his chest. He was sent flying out of the training hall immediately.

Bang!

The Dao inscriptions of the white tower could barely repair the damage in time when Gongsun Yuanxuan was sent crashing through the wall.

Boom!

Just like that, Gongsun Yuanxuan fell from the 81st floor, landing on the snow-covered ground. His four limbs were spread far apart as he lay facing the sky. His body trembled as he looked at the snowflakes falling on his face one after another.
