My Disciples Are All Villains

Chapter 861 - A Wise Man Submits To Circumstances



Everyone in the Sky Martial Court had long been aware of Yu Chenshu's death. Due to the sighting of a black lotus cultivator, rumors were swirling outside that Yu Chenshu was killed by the black lotus cultivator. However, the spies from the Sky Martial Court had witnessed the battle between their court master and the elite from Cloud Mountain. Although the spies did not see the elite from Cloud Mountain killing their court master, they were certain their court master was suppressed and beaten the entire time.

Yu Chenshu's life stone had already shattered. Who could have killed him? Everyone else was saying it was the black lotus cultivator, but they did not even see the shadow of the black lotus cultivator. Moreover, there were many who had witnessed Lu Zhou killing Mo Buyan and Jian Tingzhong at lightning speed.

To confirm the news, Qiu He even sent people to the Void Sect.

After the battle, the Void Sect did not want to offend the Sky Martial Court. They were anxious to wash their hands of this matter so they told the truth.

Therefore, to the people of the Sky Martial Court, it was Senior Lu from Cloud Mountain, Nie Qingyun, the Thousand Willow Monastery, and the others who killed Yu Chenshu.

Who knew the murderers would boldly come to the Sky Martial Court in broad daylight? How could the people of the Sky Martial Court not be angry?

Fortunately, Qiu He had always been calm and rational. What could they do to an opponent whom even Yu Chenshu was not a match for? Therefore, he invited the five Grand Dukes over and planned to ask General Xia Hou to lead them. With the Sky Martial Heavenly Formation, they might have a fighting chance.

Above Sky Martial Mountain.

At this moment, many Sky Martial Court disciples leaped into the air and flew toward the huge flying chariot. There were forty to fifty disciples hovering in front of the flying chariot.

Before any of the disciples could speak, Nie Qingyun said, "Summon Qiu He here to meet Senior Lu."

A Ten-leaf elite was not someone the young Sky Martial Court disciples could compare to. Nie Qingyun's soundwave shocked them so much that they were on the brink of collapse. Their faces were ashen, and they almost fell from the sky.

At this moment, five people flew over from the direction of the Sky Martial Court.

The person in the lead was dressed in a long gray robe and had an imposing air about him.

"Elder Qiu." The Sky Martial Court disciples bowed.

Qiu He was very tactful. He did not beat around the bush and made an inviting gesture as he said, "Everyone, please…"

Nie Qingyun glanced at Qiu He and said, "You have good eyesight."

Qiu He only looked at Nie Qingyun with a hint of helplessness flashing in the depths of his eyes. "Greetings, Sect Leader Nie. Greetings, Senior Lu."

"There's no need to bow to me... Don't blame me for reminding you. Other than Senior Lu, you must not neglect these four people," Nie Qingyun said as he gestured at Yu Zhenghai, Yu Shangrong, Little Yuan 'er, Conch who were standing on the right.

Qiu He bowed to the four of them.

"And this one as well."

Qiu He looked up, then he quickly said, "Greetings, your Majesty."

The Sky Martial Court disciples greeted Li Yunzheng as well

Li Yunzheng waved his hand and said, "No need."

Not too long ago, these people had looked down on Nie Qingyun. Although he had a Ten-leaf cultivation base, in the Sky Martial Court, he was not even comparable to an elder. The Sky Martial Court and the Flying Star House's Ye Zhen even wanted to annex Cloud Mountain.

The world was always changing, and one would not be able to predict the future. He looked at the Monastery Master of the Thousand Willow Mastery, Xia Changqiu, who was standing in the corner and said, "Monastery Master Xia, thank you for your reminder that day…"

"It's nothing, it's nothing," Xia Changqiu said.

Following that, Qiu He led the flying chariot.

The flying chariot landed outside of the Sky Martial Court's Sacred Rites Hall.

Qiu He led the elders inside the Sacred Rite Hall while the core disciples of the Sky Martial Court could only wait outside.

When Lu Zhou alighted from the flying chariot, he surveyed his surroundings. At this moment, he discovered how magnificent and luxurious the Sky Martial Court was. When he walked into the hall, he saw the huge pillars that were carved with intricate Dao patterns. Even the floor was covered in Dao patterns. He had noticed that all the disciples of the Sky Martial Court possessed weapons at the earth grade or above. Meanwhile, the core disciples possessed heaven-grade weapons. This was something unimaginable for other sects. To think what he was seeing now was just the superficial surface. No wonder Yu Chenshu was so confident and generous. If he had fought with Yu Chenshu in the Sky Martial Court that day, it would have been as difficult as ascending to the heavens to kill Yu Chenshu. Yu Chenshu had a flag that could cast the Life Siphoning Technique to replenish his puppet's life. What other treasures or trump cards did Yu Chenshu have in the Sky Martial Court?

When everyone had entered the Sacred Rites Hall, Qiu He said with a bow, "Your Majesty, please take the main seat."

Li Yunzheng frowned and ignored Qiu He. Instead, he said to Lu Zhou, "Grandmaster, please take the main seat."

Qiu He. "..."

Grandmaster?

Qiu He looked at Wang Shizhong who was standing at the back. Wang Shizhong was the Head of the Secretariat in the royal court. Why was he being so submissive? The emperor… Wang Shizhong…

Meanwhile, Lu Zhou could not be bothered to climb the stairs so he just took a seat on the left. Then, he turned his eyes to Qiu He and asked, "In the Sky Martial Court now, who has the authority to speak?"

Qiu He replied, "Naturally, it's the court elders."

There were about five or six elders standing behind Qiu he. All of them were elderly and wore long gray robes. They seemed to all possessed a high cultivation base.

Based on this alone, one could see how powerful the Sky Martial Court was.

Lu Zhou asked, "Do you know why I came to the Sky Martial Court?"

Qiu He shook his head and said, "Please enlighten me, Senior Lu."

"Sikong Beichen, the Temple Master of the Ninth Temple, is a friend of mine. How can I stay idle when my friend's in trouble?" Lu Zhou said.

The Sky Martial Court's Elder Duan said, "The Ninth Temple is a traitor. Sikong Beichen killed General Chen, an important official of the royal court. This is a grave crime. It's not surprising and justified that Court Master Yu was ordered to capture Sikong Beichen."

"Bullsh*t," Nie Qingyun cursed.

Everyone turned around to look at Nie Qingyun in unison.

Even Xia Changqiu was shocked. When did Nie Qingyun become so passionate? He was the Sect Master of Cloud Mountain, a Ten-leaf elite. How could he voice his thoughts so openly?

Nie Qingyun did not care about the strange looks people were shooting him and continued to say, "Even if Yu Chenshu were alive, he wouldn't dare to speak to Senior Lu in such a manner. Are you tired of living?"

"You..." Duan Yi said.

Qiu He cupped his fists together and hurriedly interjected, "Everyone, please don't be angry." Then, he turned around and said to Lu Zhou, "Senior Lu, before we begin our negotiations, I have a question."

"Speak."

"Senior Lu, did you really kill Court Master Yu?"

It was still important to clarify this matter even if they believed the visitors in front of them were murderers.

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "There's one thing I need to clarify before I answer your question…" His tone was low when he spoke. "You're mistaken if you think I'm here to negotiate with you. You will do whatever I tell you to do. You're not qualified to negotiate with me. And, yes, I killed Yu Chenshu. If you're unhappy, I don't mind killing a few more people…"

The atmosphere in the Sacred Rites Hall turned tense immediately.

All the reasons, excuses, and speeches Qiu He prepared became worthless at this moment.

Qiu He and the elders standing behind him felt their hearts thumping wildly in their chests.

After a brief silence, Duan Yi, the elder from the Sky Martial Court, mustered up his courage and said, "Senior Lu, you've already killed Court Master Yu. Don't tell me you want to kill all of us? This is the Sky Martial Court, not Cloud Mountain or the Sky Wheel Mountain Range."

Lu Zhou shifted his eyes to Duan Yi. He was quiet; he only stared at Duan Yi for a few seconds before he shifted his eyes back to Qiu He.

Qiu He turned around and said, "Elder Duan isn't feeling well. It's not suitable for him to stay in the Sacred Rites Hall. Bring him away so he can rest."

"Understood." Several disciples walked into the hall.

Duan Yi was slightly agitated. He wanted to protest, but Qiu He waved his hand and sealed his acupoints. Following that, he was dragged out by the disciples.

Xia Changqiu from the Thousand Willow Monastery shook his head and muttered under his breath, "I thought the people from big sects are smart. As it turns out, they're rather stupid."

Since all of them had come here, how could they not know this was the Sky Martial Court?

Qiu He's face was expressionless as he said tonelessly, "If Senior Lu has any request, please tell me."

Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction, "A wise man submits to circumstances."

Qiu He naturally knew what Lu Zhou meant. He waved his sleeve and said, "Release Temple Master Sikong."

"Elder Qiu?! This is a felon of the royal court. How are we going to explain this to General Xia Hou?!"

Qiu He's expression darkened, and his voice turned stern as he said, "If I say release him, then release him!"
