Chapter 134 - A Close Friend of Eldest Senior Brother
Lu Zhou was slightly surprised to hear the system’s notifications. When Ji Tiandao taught his disciples their cultivation methods, he withheld many details from them. Apart from suppressing their cultivation bases, he also restricted their possessions of weapons.
Lu Zhou’s disciples were, naturally, shocked when they saw he was no longer suppressing their strength or deliberately hindering their cultivation progress.
After completing the cultivation methods, Lu Zhou placed the brush down. He stroked his beard and said, “I’ve completed your cultivation methods. Don’t disappoint me after this!”
The three disciples kneeled in unison. “We won’t let you down, master!”
…
Meanwhile, in the Divine Capital.
An Imperial family’s flying chariot rose slowly from the Divine Capital’s Prince Qi’s Mansion. The flying chariot was surrounded by many cultivators on all sides. They formed an extensive and square formation around it. The flag of Prince Qi’s Mansion fluttered in the air as the flying chariot flew away from the Divine Capital.
The two subordinates behind him hastily went to fetch some wine and prepared the table.
Si Wuya was speechless. However, he knew his Eldest Senior Brother liked to drink. It would not be in his favor to reject his Eldest Senior Brother.
After three cups of wine, Yu Zhenghai said calmly, “Seventh Junior Brother, what brings you here?”
Si Wuya placed his wine cup down and pointed at the box beside him. “Master’s box.”
When Yu Zhenghai heard this, he frowned slightly. “After I came out of cultivating in seclusion, I heard master single-handedly drove away the ten great elites… He should be living out his days in the Evil Sky Pavilion. What’s the matter with this box?”
“This box is extremely mysterious. Heaven-grade weapons can do nothing against it… It needs six weapons to be unlocked. Now, all we need is your Jasper Saber… and Sixth Junior Sister’s Amorous Hoop. The Amorous Hoop is currently in master’s possession.”
Yu Zhenghai said, “Master has many treasures, and yet, he’s fussing over this particular one. Do you know what’s inside?”
Si Wuya shook his head. “I have no idea. However, the more precious it is, the more reason for us to unlock it. Treasures should not remain sealed. If you want to flatten the Divine Capital, it’s better for you to have as many treasures as possible, Eldest Senior Brother.”
“You have a point.” Yu Zhenghai raised his right hand slightly. There was a flash of light in the flying chariot. The Jasper Saber flew into his hand.
“Place it into the groove, and it’ll activate the contraption.” Si Wuya pointed at one of the grooves.
However, Yu Zhenghai did not place his Jasper Saber into it. Instead, he glanced at the pattern on the box and said, “Second Junior Brother has made his choice… You’ve also made your choice, Seventh Junior Brother. If I refuse to unlock the box, what will you do?”
Si Wuya smiled faintly, it seemed as though he had expected this. He answered, “This box was brought down the mountain by Fourth Senior Brother Mingshi Yin. He has a heaven-grade weapon that resembles a hook and a blade at the same time. Fourth Senior Brother has given me a limit of seven days. If this box remains locked, I’m afraid that master will get angry.”
“When a person gets old… he’s bound to get cranky.” Yu Zhenghai flicked his finger lightly.
Ping!
The Jasper Saber spun in the air. However, it did not enter the groove on the mysterious box. Instead, it sailed toward a group of cultivators gathered under the flying chariot.
Si Wuya was taken aback. He looked down, stupefied. “The Azure Dragon’s headquarters?”
