Little Yuan’er scratched her head and looked at Duanmu Dian innocently. No matter what he said now, his image had fallen rock bottom in her heart.
‘Is it really okay to lie through teeth like that?”
The others from the Evil Sky Pavilion came to a stop and looked at Lu Zhou, waiting for his response.
Alas, Lu Zhou continued to fly forward. His speed was not very fast so the others caught up to him easily.
Duanmu Dian was a Great Saint. It was not difficult for him to catch up to them. However, if they left the range of Dunzhang, it would be troublesome for him to chase after them. Hence, he unleashed his grand technique and appeared a few meters in front of Lu Zhou in just a blink of an eye. Then, he
said with a smile, “Old Lu, I was just joking. Why did you take it to heart?”
“Joking?”
“That’s right. How long have we been friends now? How can I lie to you?” Duanmu Dian said righteously.
Lu Zhou said, “For Duanmu Sheng’s sake, ll give you another chance.”
Duanmu Dian nodded. “I’l lead you to the Pillars of Destruction.”
“Very good,” Lu Zhou said, satisfied with this outcome. Then, he turned around and said to everyone, “From today onward, Duanmu Dian is the first Great Saint of the Evil Sky Pavilion. All of you, hurry up and bow to him.”
Duanmu Di.
Everyone bowed.
“Greetings, Great Saint.”
Duanmu Dian asked innocently, “Old Lu, what do you mean by this?”
“Hm?” Lu Zhou furrowed his brows. “Are you going to go back on your words again?”
“No. Didn’t you say I have two choices? Either join the Evil Sky Pavilion or lead you to the Pillars of Destruction? I said I’ll lead you to the Pillars of Destruction,” Duanmu Dian said.
Lu Zhou nodded. “It’s true that there are two choices, but I didn’t say you can only pick one out of the two choices.”
Lu Zhou turned around to look at Dunzhang’s Pillar of Destruction before he calmly said, “Old Third, you’ll explain the rules of the Evil Sky Pavilion to the Great Saint.”
Duanmu Sheng bowed. “Yes.”
Duanmu Dian:
‘It’s f*cking over!”
Duanmu Dian wanted to curse at the sly old fox in front of him, but when he saw the look in Duanmu Sheng’s eyes, he had no choice but to suppress that urge.
Duanmu Sheng came up to Duanmu Dian and asked expressionlessly, “Do you need me to explain the rules to you?”
Upon hearing this, Duanmu Dian nodded decisively and said, “Yes, of course, I do! Without rules, there’ll be chaos, after all!”
Duanmu Sheng cleared his throat before he said, “The first rule is that the disciples and members of the Evil Sky Pavilion are prohibited from killing each other. Second is to respect the Pavilion Master.”
Upon hearing the second rule, Duanmu Dian interjected, “Wait, wait, wait. Is there really such a rule?”
“When did this old fox become so narcissistic? Even the Hall Master of the Great Void’s Sacred Hall doesn’t have such a rule!
Duanmu Sheng continued to say as though he did not hear Duanmu Dian, “Third is to sever ties with the past.”
“Fourth...”
Duanmu Dian raised his hand and interjected again, “Wait.”
“Wait for what?” Duanmu Sheng looked at Duanmu Dian and said, “Do you think you’ll get preferential treatment because you’re a Great Saint? My Eldest Senior Brother is the Sect Leader of the Nether Sect, and he commands hundreds of thousands of men. My Second Senior Brother is a rare sword expert
known as the Sword Devil. All of the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion are famous in their own right, but they still have to abide by the rules of the Evil Sky Pavilion.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong, in particular, looked slightly pleased. They did not care for flattery, but somehow, they felt very comfortable listening to their Third Junior Brother’s praises today.
Duanmu Dian swept his eyes across the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion. It was at this moment that he discovered the extraordinary auras of the people in the group. All of them were obviously talented. Hence, he nodded before he asked, “Then, are you known as the Spear God?”
Duanmu Sheng frowned slightly. He was slightly bewildered. Why did he feel that the ancestor of the Duanmu clan was not mature or steady at all? After a moment, he coughed and said, “The rules...”
Duanmu Dian cleared his throat and said, “Naturally, rules are meant to be followed. I’m no exception.”
“That’s good,” Lu Zhou said.
Then, everyone formally greeted Duanmu Dian.
With this, the Evil Sky Pavilion had officially gained a Great Saint.
In Duanmn Dian’s courtyard in Dunzhang.
The environment of Dunzhang’s Pillar of Destruction was peaceful. There were no fierce beasts or cultivators. If not for the black fog in the sky, this place would be like a paradise. It was very suitable for living.
At this moment, Duanmu Dian let out a long sigh after hearing Lu Zhou’s account of Duanmu Sheng’s life and experience.
When Duanmu Sheng was young, his family was destroyed. His suffering was not any less than Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong, Soon after that, he joined the Evil Sky Pavilion and cultivated with Lu Zhou. He lived in the golden lotus domain’s Evil Sky Pavilion for a long time.
Lu Zhou told Duanmu Dian that Duanmu Sheng was very diligent in cultivating and never complained. He told Duanmu Dian about how Duanmu Sheng obtained the corrosive energy from the Lili, and how he had persevered to defend the land despite being on the brink of death. He told Duanmu Dian
about how Duanmu Sheng went to the Unknown Land to cultivate with Lu Wu as well.
Those who heard the story could not help but feel sad.
“If [hadn’t gone to the purple lotus domain, none of this would’ve happened. Old Lu, it’s all thanks to you this time,” Duanmu Dian said with a sigh.
“I’s nothing.”
“Tunderstand why Duanmu Sheng has a golden lotus, but Old Lu, how did you do it?” Duanmu Dian asked, puzzled.
Lu Zhou was speechless. Seeing that Duanmu Dian was determined to get to the bottom of this matter, he knew if he did not give Duanmu Dian an explanation, it was likely that he would not be able to sleep in the future. Hence, he said, “It’s nothing special. It’s just a secret technique.”
“What kind of strange secret technique can do such a thing?” Duanmu Dian asked curiously.
Lu Zhou extended his hand as he said tonelessly, “Please have a look.”
A golden lotus bloomed on Lu Zhou’s palm. Following that, the color of the golden lotus began to change one after another. It changed from gold to red to purple to black to white and finally to green.
Duanmu Dian was surprised. He pointed at the lotus in Lu Zhou’s hand and said, “How can this be? What kind of technique is this? Old Lu, hurry up and teach me!”
Lu Zhou:”...”
Those from the Evil Sky Pavilion who had witnessed this technique were not surprised. Those who had yet to witness it were shocked like Duanmu Dian. Even Qin Naihe, a Venerable Master, was dumbfounded.
Lu Zhou said expressionlessly, “If you want to learn, you’ll have to acknowledge me as your master.”
“Acknowledge you as my master?” Duanmu Dian looked at Lu Zhou hesitantly, considering the idea. He was rather envious of this particular skill, after all.
Seeing that Duanmu Dian was actually considering the preposterous suggestion he had simply thrown out, Lu Zhou hurriedly said, “If you acknowledge me as your master, you have to bow three times before kneeling and kowtowing nine times to me. After that, you’ll be accepted as my 11th disciple. Just
to remind you, Duanmu Sheng is my third disciple. The Evil Sky Pavilion is rather strict about seniority.”
Duanmu Dian coughed before he said with a straight face, “What are you thinking? It’s impossible for me to acknowledge you as my master.”
After that, Duanmu Dian moved to stand in front of Duanmu Sheng and patted Duanmu Sheng’s shoulder before he said, “It’s been hard on you all these years.”
Duanmu Sheng turned to look away. He did not any feelings for the person in front of him. After all, they had just met today.
Duanmu Dian was an elder. He naturally would not be petty with the younger generation.
Upon seeing this scene, Lu Zhou called out in a deep voice, “Old Third.”
Duanmu Sheng hurriedly responded, “Yes, master.”
“Kneel..”
