read My Disciples Are All Villains - Chapter 222

The Great Seal of Fearlessness hovered in the air for a moment. Like a firework, it shone brightly before it gradually faded away.

The cacophonous noise from the chaotic convergence of Primal Qi, the bubbling of Slender West Lake’s water, and the collisions of rubble and debris rang in the air. However, as soon as the Great Seal of Fearlessness vanished, the noises abruptly stopped.

The objects froze in the air and fell, and the Primal Qi dispersed.

“Ding! Killed a Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm target. Reward: 1,500 merit points.”

Slender West Lake was calm again.

Leng Luo’s body was stiff. He remained motionless as he looked in the direction where the Great Seal of Fearlessness had vanished. He attempted to look for Mo Qi’s figure but found nothing.

Pan Litian held his jar of wine with a listless look in his eyes. Nobody knew what was going through his mind at this moment.

There were many elites in the Clarity Sect. Whether it was You Hongyi, the Seven Clarity Sons, or even Pan Litian himself, none of them had the confidence to be able to kill the Sect Master of Clarity Sect with just a palm strike. Although Mo Qi was injured, he was still a Seven-leaf elite after all. Moreover, Mo Qi had activated the Formation and had gone berserk…

“That pretentious prick. Isn’t he reduced to ashes by my master as well in the end?” Little Yuan’er said. She was already immune to such displays so she did not find it strange at all.

Leng Luo. “…”

Pan Litian. “…”

Little Yuan’er’s voice snapped everyone back to reality.

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said lightly, “Search.”

Pan Litian appeared anxious. Alas, he could not be of any help. He could only anxiously stand atop the flying chariot.

When Little Yuan’er heard the order, she leaped off the flying chariot. With swift movements, she shot toward the compound where Mo Qi had appeared from moments ago.

For a time, the scarlet Nirvana Sash shot in several directions. It was as if a fierce bandit had invaded a village and the chickens were scattered while the eggs were shattered.

Lu Zhou shook his head. He felt slightly helpless. He was hoping that she would become a well-rounded and elegant young lady who was knowledgeable and compassionate. It seemed like wishful thinking now.

After a brief moment, Little Yuan’er hovered above a roof and said, “Master, there’s no one else here!”

Pan Litian said, “This little girl will become someone extraordinary if she’s given some time.”

“Are you complimenting me?” Little Yuan’er asked as she looked at Pan Litian.

“There aren’t many who are worthy of my attention. You’re one of the few who’s worthy of my attention. You’re truly talented. In less than five years, you’ll be in the Nascent Divinity… Tribulation… A Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar?” Pan Litian was halfway speaking when he saw Little Yuan’er unleashing her Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar.

Although it had yet to sprout any leaves, the dainty and exquisite avatar that was of similar height with her was dazzlingly bright.

Leng Luo glanced at Pan Litian and said mockingly, “You’ve been out of touch with the cultivation world for too long. I’m afraid you’re unaware of this little girl’s reputation… Ci Yuan’er. She joined the Golden Court Mountain when she was ten and entered the Mystic Enlightening realm in ten days, the Sense Condensing realm in three months, the Brahman Sea Eight Meridians in two years, and the Divine Court realm in three years. After that, she entered the Nascent Divinity realm within a year. I’m afraid that nobody can compare to this little girl under the heavens.”

Pan Litian was stunned. He opened his cloudy eyes and regarded the Little Yuan’er in awe. “Incredible, incredible… How can a human be so talented?”

Little Yuan’er was over the moon with the shower of praises, growing more proud of herself.

When Lu Zhou heard Pan Litian’s words, he suddenly remembered Ye Tianxin’s identity and shook his head. Little Yuan’er was human. It was true her talents seemed heaven-defying.

“You should remember the kind words of the two elders and refrain from letting it get to your head,” Lu Zhou said sternly.

Little Yuan’er quickly adjusted her expressions. “Oh.”

‘Two elders?’

Pan Litian and Leng Luo were slightly stunned. Since when did they become elders? However, they had to bow their heads since they were now living under another person’s roof. Any thoughts of resistance disappeared when they recalled the shining golden palm print from before.

At this moment, Duanmu Sheng pointed at the surface of Slender West Lake that seemed to be bubbling again. “Master, something’s moving in the water…”

“That’s not the Formation. Is someone there?” Pan Litian frowned slightly.

Glug! Glug! Glug!

The bubbles increased in numbers.

Splash!

Suddenly, a figure broke through the surface of the water. The figure flipped out of the lake and lay on the riverbank.

“Pan Zhong?” Duanmu Sheng exclaimed in shock.

Pan Zhong kept throwing up lake water that was slightly tinged with blood. His face was ghastly pale, and his aura was fiercely roiling.

Leng Luo glanced at Pan Zhong and remarked, “How interesting! You’re able to hide in the lake until now.” He had no sympathy for Pan Zhong at all even though he had joined the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Leng Luo’s coldness and indifference made Pan Litian feel displeased and discontented. He suppressed his surging emotions and said, “We’ve found him… Let’s take him back.”

Leng Luo said, “There’s no use. The Clarity Sect has access to many arcane arts. You should know better than me that what he needs now is treatment.”

He could see that Pan Zhong was wounded. If he was not treated soon, he might not have long to live.

Pan Litian’s eyelids twitched. Although Leng Luo’s words grated on his ears, they were the truth. Pan Zhong’s injuries were not minor, and he had stayed hidden under the lake for a long time.

“I’ll take a look at him,” Zhao Yue said with a bow.

“Go on.”

Zhao Yue left the cloud-splitting chariot and descended slowly next to Pan Zhong. She raised her hand and smacked him lightly. The Brilliant Jade Technique’s effects manifested and evaporated the water on Pan Zhong’s body. However, Pan Zhong was in a sorry state.

After a brief examination, Zhao Yue stood up and said, “Master, he’s been hit with a palm strike, and he’s suffering from serious injuries.”

Leng Luo said, “You’re only in the Divine Court realm, and yet, you pursued Mo Qi without considering your strength?”

Pan Litian retorted, “Such is the folly of youth. He should be commended for his bravery.”

Leng Luo said, “What good is bravery if he doesn’t have the strength to match it? How is this different from throwing his life away?”

Pan Litian said, “To put it lightly, this is about a person’s life and death. On a more serious note, this is about a nation’s safety. If everyone’s a coward, there would never be world peace. Even if you know you’re going to die, you should die with no regrets.”

Leng Luo said again, “So, is that why you withdrew from the world and became a beggar?”

Pan Litian was speechless. “You…”

The disciples watched the two old monsters bicker. For a moment, they did not know if they should make a move. Well, since their master did not say anything, they’ll just keep quiet.

When Lu Zhou saw those two people’s tempers rising, “That’s enough.”

Both of them fell silent immediately.

Although they were quick to bicker, they were old monsters who had lived for a long time. No matter how angry they were, they would never seriously start an internal feud. This was the greatest taboo, no matter which sect one belonged to. Naturally, it was the same in the Evil Sky Pavilion.

At this moment, Pan Zhong suddenly had a coughing fit, causing his injuries to worsen.

Pan Litian turned around to face Lu Zhou. Then, he bowed and said, “I no longer want the sable magnolia.”

“Hm?”

“Give it to him.” Pan Litian pointed at Pan Zhong.

“Are you sure?”

“There’s nothing to be unsure about. I’m tired of living. I’ve been sick of everything a long time ago. I know this might be asking for too much. After all, I’ve never contributed to the Evil Sky Pavilion. However, Pan Zhong is still young, I believe he’ll know what to do,” Pan Litian said.

Lu Zhou nodded. He nimbly leaped off the flying chariot and slowly descended next to Pan Zhong.

Leng Luo leaped down as well.

Pan Litian was the only left staring from above.

Duanmu Sheng smiled and said, “I’ll give you a lift.” He raised his palm and hit Pan Litian. His energy wrapped around Pan Litian and carried him down.

Lu Zhou raised a hand. The Critical Heal Card shattered, and a faint blue radiance could be seen in his palm.

Leng Luo exclaimed, “The Buddhist technique, the Merciful Ark of Salvation!”

The light blue Primal Qi enveloped Pan Zhong’s body. His condition visibly improved in just a blink of an eye.
