My Disciples Are All Villains

Lu Zhou ignored the newcomers.

‘Just because you ask me to stay, I have to stay?’

Lu Zhou flashed and appeared thousands of feet away. When he glanced back, he saw two figures, one from the south and one from the north, following him. They seemed to be Venerable Masters.

Lu Zhou waited for a moment. When they drew closer, he saw they were dressed in green robes.

The middle-aged cultivator in the southern sky cupped his fists at Lu Zhou and said, “Greetings, Senior Lu.”

Then, a comparatively younger cultivator flew from the north and cupped his fists at Lu Zhou as well. “Greetings, Senior Lu.”

Lu Zhou was curious. How did they know his surname was Lu? He asked, “Do you know me?”

“I’m Liang Yufeng, Saint Chen’s second disciple.”

“I’m Yun Tongxiao, Saint Chen’s fourth disciple.”

Lu Zhou finally understood. Chen Fu’s servants must have informed them about his visit.

Liang Yufeng hurriedly said, “I don’t mean to stop you, Senior Lu. I really want to express my filial piety to my master but my master is always in seclusion…”

Lu Zhou frowned. “If you want to express your filial piety to your master, then you should look for him. Why did you come looking for me?”

Liang Yufeng said with a helpless expression, “My master is stubborn and unwilling to see us. Old senior, how’s my master’s health?”

Lu Zhou’s heart skipped a beat. Was it just as simple as asking after Chen Fu’s health? If it were anyone else, they might not understand the implication behind these words, but he knew Chen Fu was nearing the end of his life. In the end, he said, “Didn’t you understand what I said?”

“Huh?”

“You should look for your master. Goodbye.”

As the saying went, ‘A person’s heart could be seen on his face’.

The duo did not seem like good disciples. In comparison, Lu Zhou preferred disciples like his eighth disciple. Although Zhu Honggong looked like a layabout, he had a good heart and treated his fellow disciples well. Zhu Honggong’s character surpassed his cultivation.

At this time, the countless cultivators in the distance appeared behind Liang Yufeng and Yun Tongxiao from the north and the south. There were over 10,000 of them.

Liang Yufeng cupped his fists together again and said, “Senior, no matter what, I must ask you for a favor. If I had a choice, I wouldn’t have come here.”

Lu Zhou was slightly angered by Liang Yufeng’s words. He thought of Chen Fu’s wizened appearance and felt a pang of empathy. He said reproachfully, “Unfilial disciples, since your master is unwilling to see you, you must have done something wrong.”

“This…”

Lu Zhou changed the topic and asked, “Are you both waiting for Chen Fu to die?”

“…”

Liang Yufeng and Yun Tongxiao’s eyes widened in shock.

When Liang Yufeng’s shock was replaced by anger, he said, “Senior, I respect you as my master’s guest, but it doesn’t mean you can speak rudely.”

Yun Tongxiao said with a smile, “Guests are guests. However, according to Great Han’s rules, outsiders should be beheaded. If it weren’t for my master, you wouldn’t be able to leave.”

Lu Zhou shook his head and laughed. “No wonder Chen Fu suddenly changed.”

The duo looked at each other, puzzled.

Lu Zhou said solemnly, “Very well. I’ll teach you a lesson on behalf of your master.”

Lu Zhou raised his hand that had been imbued with the divine power. Then, he launched a palm seal that was like a mountain toward Liang Yufeng.

“Flawed Perfection!”

Liang Yufeng was very confident. He raised his hand to retaliate. Alas, before he could launch a palm seal, Lu Zhou’s palm seal tore through space and arrived in front of him in just a blink of an eye.

Bang!

Liang Yufeng was sent flying back.

Yun Tongxiao’s widened in shock. Then, he flashed, leaving afterimages in his wake.

At this time, over 10,000 cultivators moved in unison. Their green robes began to flutter and glow.

Lu Zhou flashed up in the sky and pressed his palm down. He used his divine power and the Hourglass of Time at the same time.

“Freeze!”

A beam of light, imbued with the divine power, shot out in all directions from the hourglass, sweeping past over 10,000 cultivators.

Lu Zhou did not know how long the effect of the Hourglass of Time would last, but he could sense it was very powerful. He flashed forward at top speed, leaving afterimages in his wake until he became blurry and turned invisible.

In fewer than three seconds, Lu Zhou unleashed 10,000 palm seals in all directions.

When the effect from the Hourglass of Time faded…

Boom!

Over 10,000 cultivators, including Yun Tongxiao, were sent flying back in unison before they dropped from the sky. Those with weaker cultivation bases vomited blood. They were completely unable to withstand the attacks. Due to the Hourglass of Time, to them, the attacks had come out of nowhere.

…

At a low altitude about 1,000 meters away.

Yan Mu was dumbstruck when he saw this scene. He had passed his second Birth Trial, after all, so it was not a problem for him to see that far.

When he saw the lone figure, he exclaimed in surprise, “S-senior Lu?!”

Then, he exclaimed again, further shocked, “Liang Yufeng?! Yun Tongxiao?!”

Yan Mu recalled how Lu Zhou had completely disregarded Hua Yin, Chen Fu’s first disciple, and how Lu Zhou perfectly avoided three moves from Chen Fu. Now, Liang Yufeng and Yun Tongxiao could not even withstand a single strike from Lu Zhou. Then, when he recalled Chen Fu’s sudden change in attitude, realization finally dawned on him.

“I get it now! You really can’t judge a book by its cover!”

Pa!

Yan Mu slapped himself as he cursed himself angrily, “Yan Mu! You’re the Sect Master of Sunset Sect, after all! Why don’t you have a discerning eye? How can you be so muddle-headed and foolish just because you met the Saint?! Such a big shot was next to you, and yet, you were ignorant of it! How stupid can you be!”

In Yan Mu’s heart now, Lu Zhou’s status had been elevated to the same level as Chen Fu.

…

Lu Zhou looked down at everyone from the sky.

Liang Yufeng and Yun Tongxiao looked up at the high and mighty Lu Zhou in shock. The duo quickly concluded that Lu Zhou was a Great Venerable Master with a sacred relic. With this combination, Lu Zhou was already comparable to a lesser Saint.

Lu Zhou said, “Chen Fu has lived for so long, do you really think he doesn’t know what both of you are thinking?”

The duo looked ashamed.

Lu Zhou continued to say, “On account of Chen Fu, I’ll spare your lives. I’ll also give you a piece of advice.”

Liang Yufeng and Yun Tongxiao were now more well-behaved. They cupped their fists together at Lu Zhou.

“S-senior, please speak.”

“Treat each other with sincerity,” Lu Zhou said. Then, he waved his hand.

With that, Whitzard flew over from the distant clouds to Lu Zhou’s side. It lowered its body for Lu Zhou to get on.

How could someone who tamed Whitzard be simple?

Liang Yufeng and Tong Yunxiao watched in shock as Lu Zhou left.

At the same time, Yan Mu, who had regained his senses, chased after Lu Zhou with all his might as he shouted, “Senior Lu! Wait for me!”

Alas, it was too late. Lu Zhou had already disappeared into the clouds.

Meanwhile, Liang Yufeng and Yun Tongxiao looked at each other and sighed heavily.

“Treat each other with sincerity?”
