Chapter 10
Lu Zhou paused for a moment and then nodded with satisfaction.
Disciples could complete quests as well, and the master could get merit points from the disciples. It was very reasonable, very nice!
2Within an hour, Little Yuan’er actually killed a dozen bold cultivators. At that moment, Lu Zhou called up the menu and glanced at it.
The merit points had accumulated to 300.
“Shopping mall.”
“Purchase an apprentice-rank Taiji avatar.”
“Ding! You’ve received an apprentice-rank Taiji avatar.”
The Evil Sky Pavilion fell silent.
Zhou Jifeng swallowed hard as his eyes went wide and were shot with blood. The sword in his hand trembled slightly, and he did not know whether he should continue attacking or not.
“Do you want to continue?” Lu Zhou’s eyes gleamed like torches.
“…”
Strength ran out of Zhou Jifeng’s legs, and he fell back on his buttocks. The gap between them was too tremendous, so much so that he had completely given up the thought of attacking.
“You’ve overestimated yourself,” Lu Zhou snorted and slowly turned around. ‘Calm down. I can’t let him see my weakness.’
“You killed my Master…I will avenge him even if the cost is my life!” Zhou Jifeng clenched the sword tightly.
“You are wasting your time.”
Zhou Jifeng rushed forward with his sword again, moving as fast as a gust of wind. An expert in the Divine Court realm was incomparable with any ordinary cultivator.
At this critical moment…
“Master!”
A blue figure flashed in from outside. Meanwhile, Zhou Jifeng’s heart trembled and his movement slowed down.
Bam!
The blue figure threw out a beam of energy and knocked him flying away. As a result, Zhou Jifeng coughed out a mouthful of blood and fell on the ground.
“How dare you sneak attack my Master! Are you blind?” Little Yuan’er landed, showing her teeth with a murderous smile on her face.
1“Stand down, Yuan’er!”
1“Master, he attacked you. I want to cut him into pieces to help you vent your anger…”
1When Zhou Jifeng heard that, his face turned pale as a sheet. Sure enough, the nine disciples of Evil Sky Pavilion were all extremely ferocious.
What he knew about them came from rumors, which were full of exaggeration and falsehood after all. But, he found that the rumors were quite true when he saw it with his own eyes today, because even this cute-looking little girl was so scary!
Zhou Jifeng was a little regretful about coming here to get his revenge!
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou was poised on the surface, but he kept sighing in his heart. ‘This old body is really weak.’
When he was in the peak form, he did not even pay attention to someone like Zhou Jifeng. But just now, he was nearly killed by this guy. Fortunately, his little disciple arrived in time. Otherwise, his five critical block cards would not last him for too long, and he would have to waste another peak-form experience card.
Lu Zhou was not surprised that Zhou Jifeng, with his cultivation base of the Divine Court realm, could sneak up the mountain, since the shield was not yet repaired, and his few disciples’ attention was somewhere else. He just did not expect that the other would be so bold as to sneak attack him.
His eyes fell on Zhou Jifeng.
Name: Zhou Jifeng
Race: Human
Cultivation Base: Early Dao-shaping stage of the Divine Court realm
Status: Enemy, hostility level 85%
…
“I killed your master, and it is reasonable for you to come to me for revenge. However, you have overestimated yourself, and this is no different from committing suicide. There is no point in doing so.”
Lu Zhou sat down slowly, searching his mind for memories related to the kid. It happened that Ji Tiandao did cross paths with the latter in the past.
“You began to temper your body when you were eight years old, stepped into the Mystic Enlightening realm at the age of nine, Sense Condensing realm at thirteen, Brahma Sea realm at eighteen, and Divine Court realm at twenty. This made you a rare genius even in the cultivation world. You could totally wait for a few more years before you came to me for revenge. Why must you come to get yourself killed now?”
Zhou Jifeng really regretted it.
He was a genius known to the whole Heavenly Sword Sect.
Meanwhile, Little Yuan’er mumbled, “Master, you call this a rare genius? When I was ten years old, I acknowledged you as my master, and I’m fifteen years old this year, but I have already stepped into the Divine Court realm…”
1Lu Zhou, “…”
When Zhou Jifeng heard that, the little bit of pride he had just now vanished in an instant.
1“Don’t interrupt!” Lu Zhou glared at her.
Little Yuan’er stuck out her tongue and stepped to the side. Then, Lu Zhou continued, “Zhou Jifeng, do you know why I didn’t kill you?”
“Old villain, you don’t have to be hypocritical. Whether you want to kill or torture me, do it now!” Zhou Jifeng put on a brave face.
Lu Zhou shook his head. “You really think Luo Changfeng is a gentleman?”
“What do you mean?” Zhou Jifeng’s glared at him.
“What an ignorant young man! You weren’t even born when I met Luo Changfeng.”
“What are you trying to say?”
“If I told you that the person who killed your father was Luo Changfeng, would you believe it?”
“Ding! A hidden side quest is triggered: Instigate Zhou Jifeng’s defection.”
“Hint: Everything you do has the potential to trigger hidden quests.”
