My Disciples Are All Villains

Chapter 1509 Xuanyi Palace’s Li Chun (2)

Lu Zhou said, “This is your territory, after all.”

“It’s fine. There aren’t many people in Autumn Dew Mountain. About 100 miles north of this place, there’s a place called Fragrant Valley. It’s part of Autumn Dew Mountain as well. No one goes there so you can cultivate in seclusion there,” Chen Fu said.

Lu Zhou nodded.

Chen Fu continued to say, “Fragrant valley is filled with fragrance like its name suggests. Hundreds of flowers are in full bloom there. Some are poisonous and some are not. In the deepest part of Fragrant Valley, there’s a strange flower that absorbs the essence of the heavens, earth, sun, and moon. It emits a fragrance that can cause hallucinations and bring about extreme pain. It’s good to pass the Birth Trials near that flower. Those with a weak will have difficulty passing their Birth Trials there…”

“Is it hidden?” Lu Zhou asked.

Chen Fu laughed and said, “There’s an ancient formation protecting that place. It was created when the land split. Even Dao Saints won’t be able to break the formation. However, if it’s one of the emperors…”

Mingshi Yin chimed in with a smile, “Are the emperors so free? Moreover, if you don’t say anything and we don’t say anything, who will know we’re cultivating there?”

When Chen Fu heard Mingshi Yin’s words, he felt that something was wrong. He looked at Lu Zhou and asked, “How big of a mess did you create in the Unknown Land?”

“It’s not important. There’s no need to mention it,” Lu Zhou replied.

Chen Fu gently pressed Lu Zhou’s hand and said, “It’s very important. You’re pushing me into a fire pit.”

Lu Zhou smiled as he said tonelessly, “Chen Fu, do you know why I came to you?”

“Why?”

“First, you dared to challenge the Great Void. You used this domain to threaten them and managed to force them to come to an agreement with you. Second, you’re severely injured so you should hope that the world will change. Third, you once brought me to the Pillars of Destruction,” Lu Zhou said, “You can clearly stand tall if you join their ranks, but you didn’t. Similar to you, I don’t want to join their ranks. This applies to my disciples as well.”

Following that, all of Lu Zhou’s disciples said in unison, “I swear to follow master to the death!”

Chen Fu: “…”

When Chen Fu saw the determined expressions on their faces, he sighed. “You should know how powerful the Great Void is. Doing this is no different from an ant shaking a tree.”

“Didn’t you do the same?”

Chen Fu was quiet. He sat with his back straight as he thought about the past, the frivolity and impulsiveness of his youth, and the partings he experienced. He thought about the hardships of cultivation and his ambitions when he became a Saint. Time passed, and he did not know how he ended up like this.

Chen Fu seemed to have thought it through as he said, “Alright! I’ll risk my life to accompany you! I’ll be frivolous and impulsive again!” Everyone nodded, delighted by these words. Mingshi Yin said, “Alas, this matter isn’t frivolous. May I ask Saint Chen how strong is the Great Void?”

Previously, when they met Duanmu Dian, Duanmu Sheng’s ancestor, they did not have time to ask about this. Since they were with Chen Fu, this was a good chance to find out more about the Great Void.

Chen Fu said, “I have never been to the Great Void. What I know, I learned from the envoys of the Great Void. Above the ten halls is the Sacred Temple. The masters of the ten halls are all supreme beings. As for what kind of supreme beings, I’m not sure. The Temple Master of the Sacred Hall is one of the Great Emperors. Apart from that, there were also Zhi Guangji; the Black Emperor, Ling Weiyang; the Azure Emperor, Chi Biaonu; the Scarlet Emperor, and Bai Zhaojuai; the White Emperor.”

Lu Zhou seized the opportunity and asked, “Do you know the White Emperor?”.

Chen Fu shook his head. “These are all ancient cultivators. Before the land split, they disappeared. Maybe they’re in the Great Void all this time, or maybe they’re dead.’ “This White Emperor should still be alive. Anyway, that’s not important. Please continue,” Lu Zhou said.

“No one can live forever. The chances of them being alive are very small,” Chen Fu said.

Lu Zhou did not say anything. However, if what Chen Fu said was true, then what was the White Emperor’s token and who were the white-clad cultivators?

100,000 years had passed since the land split. The lifespans of supreme beings far exceeded 100,000 years. How old were the Great Emperors exactly? Chen Fu continued to say, “Every once in a while, the Great Void would recruit talents from the nine domains and bring them to the Great Void. In the past 100,000 years, they’ve managed to gather quite a number of experts. Apart from the ten halls and the Sacred Hall, there are also the 12 Saints, which include Great Dao Saints.”

Everyone was shocked. The Great Void’s strength was actually so terrifying.

“These are only the humans. The Great Void controls many fierce beasts. Among the divine beasts, there are ancient divine beasts and ancient saint slayers,” Chen Fu said with a look of admiration. Then, he said to Lu Zhou, “You should’ve been to the Great Abyss Land as well, right? I’ve only been there briefly once.”

Lu Zhou nodded. “The current ruler of the Great Abyss Land is Emperor Yu of the Feather tribe. There are many powerful fierce beasts there, and it’s the only place with sunlight in the Unknown Land.”

Chen Fu was not surprised by Lu Zhou’s words. Instead, he looked out the window and murmured, “The only place with sunlight…”

It had been a long time since the twin lotus domain had seen the sun. When would light come again?

Chen Fu asked curiously, “What is it like there?”

“Let me tell you!” Little Yuan’er said before she excitedly recounted what she had seen. The sun, the chirping birds, and the fragrant flowers; she did not leave anything out. Then, she spoke about the Feather tribe, the immensely huge fierce beast, and the Three-headed tribe.

Chen Fu was surprised when he listened to Little Yuan’er’s words. He said, “I’ve long heard that the Great Abyss Land has the bigger Pillar of Destruction. I didn’t expect it to be so big. As expected of the biggest Pillar of Destruction that supported the heaven and earth.”

Lu Zhou shook his head and said, “The Ten Pillars of Destruction seem to be cracking. There’s a force from heaven and earth that mends them. This isn’t something humans are capable of. The Great Void helps by sending patrol teams there. Who knows the pillars might collapse one day…”

“If that happens, countless lives will be plunged into misery,” Chen Fu said.

“I disagree,” Lu Zhou said. “Hm?”

Lu Zhou said, “There aren’t many humans living in the Unknown Land. Yes, there are many fierce beasts there. However, every time there’s an imbalance, the fierce beasts will migrate. This means they’re not as stupid as humans think they are. The sea beasts won’t be affected by the sky collapsing. With all things considered, even if the sky collapses, it won’t be too bad. Moreover, the Unknown Land will see the light of day again. At that time, how good would it be for humans to return to the Unknown Land and see the sun?”

Lu Zhou continued to say, “The Great Void won’t allow the Ten Pillars of Destruction to fall. They say it’s to protect all living beings, but in reality, it’s just to maintain their status and position.”

Chen Fu sighed. How could he not know this? However, with how powerful the Great Void was, who would dare to question them?

Under the night sky, the Autumn Dew Mountain was abnormally quiet.

Only a few lights in the training hall dispelled the darkness.

At this moment, a young cultivator rushed in and bowed before he said, “Saint, there’s… We have another honored guest.” “Another honored guest?” Chen Fu was slightly taken aback.

Before Chen Fu could respond, a voice rang from outside.

“Chen Fu, long time no see.”

The voice was sonorous and confident.

Lu Zhou waved his hand. “Everyone, leave.”

“Yes.”

Everyone from the Evil Sky Pavilion left through the back door of Chen Fu’s training hall.

Soon enough, an old man dressed in a long robe who looked like he was in his sixties slowly walked in with his hands on his back.

Although the old man looked ordinary, Lu Zhou and Chen Fu, who were Saints, could clearly feel the energy from the power of the Dao.

Lu Zhou cocked an eyebrow. ‘Who’s this person?’

Chen Fu rose to his feet at this moment and cupped his fists at the old man. “As it turnsout, it’s Dao Saint Li.”

Dao Saint Li glanced at Lu Zhou before he shifted his eyes back to Chen Fu and said, “You look so pale, but you still have time to chat so happily with your friend?” “This is a friend of my Autumn Dew Mountain. His surname is Lu,” Chen Fu said.

Dao Saint Li sized Lu Zhou up with a penetrating gaze. Then, he frowned slightly as he said, “In the nine domains, I don’t think there are any other Saints…”

“He’s a new Saint,” Chen Fu said.

“No wonder,” Dao Saint Li said with a nod as he thought to himself, ‘No wonder the Scales of Justice didn’t sense such him…’

Lu Zhou glanced at Dao Saint Li and asked, “You’re from the Great Void?”

“You’re quite astute,” Dao Saint Li said indifferently as he sat down.
