My Disciples Are All Villains

Chapter 236 Come Back With Me To Face Master

Si Wuya knew his Fourth Senior Brother very well. He knew Mingshi Yin would not follow through on his threat. Who said Si Wuya was always cautious? There were times where he would take risks as well! This was one of those moments.

Mingshi Yin held onto Si Wuya’s collar as fury churned in his eyes. He did not recklessly attack Si Wuya. He only glared at Si Wuya as he said, “At the end of the day, I’m still your senior brother… Before I do this, I want to know the real reason why all of you left the Evil Sky Pavilion.” By ‘all of you’, he, naturally, meant his Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother, Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong.

Si Wuya said with a smile, “That’s simple. Master has a fiery temper, and we’re humans who have dignity. Who can endure that treatment for such a long time? Once we obtained our weapons and cultivation methods, we, naturally, left without turning back.”

“Do you think that I’d believe that? You’re painting your betrayal of the Evil Sky Pavilion as something righteous. When did you grow so shameless?” Mingshi Yin asked with a sneer on his face.

“Pot calling the kettle black… I remember you have such thoughts as well when the elites of the ten great sects laid siege on Golden Court Mountain, Fourth Senior Brother… You might not believe me, but many of those who attacked the Golden Court Mountain back then were my moles… Back then, you infuriated master to no end, Fourth Senior Brother,” Si Wuya said confidently and frankly as though he had seen it with his own eyes.

“Silence!”

A surge soundwave washed over Si Wuya, causing him to sway slightly. Then, he cupped his fists and said, “I’m only stating the truth. Please forgive me, senior brother.”

“The past is the past… You weren’t us, how would you know what it’s like on the mountain back then?” Mingshi Yin inquired.

“To say the same, you’re not us as well. How can you presume to understand our feelings?”

“You dare quibble with me?!” Mingshi Yin tightened his grip before throwing Si Wuya aside.

Bam!

Si Wuya crashed through the railing and landed in the courtyard.

Far away, in the Evil Sky Pavilion. “Ding! Punished Si Wuya. Reward: 200 merit points.”

Lu Zhou briefly opened his eyes before closing them again when he received this notification.

Against a cultivator who had completed the nine stages of Body Tempering, this degree of harm would not have much of an effect on him without some Primal Qi.

Mingshi Yin leaped out of the room and regarded Si Wuya in confusion. After a while, he said, “There’s a cycle in nature, and what goes around comes around. Who’s the wise guy who sealed your cultivation base to the extent that you’re unable to break free…”

Si Wuya propped himself up and wiped the blood from the edge of his lips. He turned to look outside.

Mingshi Yin said, “Nobody will come to your rescue… I’ve been cultivating here whenever I have time. Perhaps, they’re all frightened to death.”

Si Wuya, “…” He suddenly realized that his Fourth Senior Brother was much smarter than he had expected. He managed a smile and said, “Fourth Senior Brother, why don’t you join the Darknet… You can be the sect master, and I’ll be your aide.”

“You’re hopeless! In light of master’s absence, I’ll punish you on his behalf!”

Mingshi Yin raised his hand and cast another palm seal toward Si Wuya.

Just when the energy seal was about to connect with Si Wuya’s chest…

Bam!

Another faster energy seal shielded Si Wuya’s chest.

The energy seal was extremely thick. It appeared at lightning speed and negated Mingshi Yin’s energy seal.

Mingshi Yin turned around to look. A man cupped his fists toward him from the roof of the courtyard. He said, “The Nether Sect’s White Tiger Hall’s Bai Yuqing offers his greetings, Mister Fourth.” “The Nether Sect…” Mingshi Yin instantly retreated and surveyed his surroundings. He was worried that his Eldest Senior Brother was here as well.

Bai Yuqing said with a smile, “There’s no need to feel anxious, Mister Fourth. The sect master has something else to attend to at the moment. He isn’t here.”

“Now that’s a joke. Me? Afraid of him?” Mingshi Yin was inwardly relieved.

“Mister Fourth… I heard the commotion here earlier. The sect master has repeatedly ordered me to not interfere in the personal affairs of his fellow disciples. However… the sect master has also charged me with the protection of Mister Seventh. Why do you have to be overbearing and put Mister Seventh in a difficult position, Mister Fourth?” Bai Yuqing asked.

Mingshi Yin looked at Bai Yuqing and said, “You dare defy your sect master’s repeated orders… If I were your sect master, I’d have the heads of those who did not obey my commands!”

Bai Yuqing was speechless.

Si Wuya managed to rise to his feet before he said, “Fourth Senior Brother, why do you have to be angry… Even if you kill me, what will that accomplish?”

“My problem is you.” Si Wuya, “…” For a moment, he felt that his Fourth Senior Brother was a stranger to him. He did not know why his Fourth Senior Brother had changed so much. After all, the former Mingshi Yin shared the same opinion as them in regard to the Evil Sky Pavilion.

After a moment’s silence, Si Wuya removed the clothes from his upper body. He exposed his slightly skinny yet toned body that came with six-packs. It was hardly imaginable for the gentle and scholar-like Si Wuya to have such a great physique.

However, a huge, blood-colored ‘bind’ script could be seen in the center of Si Wuya’s chest. It was a difficult sight to miss what with the script covering his entire chest.

“A Binding Mantra?” Mingshi Yin frowned, inwardly shocked. He had studied the books in the west pavilion when he was at the Evil Sky Pavilion in an attempt to improve his cultivation base. At that time, his Bluewood Heart Technique was not completed yet, but he was knowledgeable enough. This Binding Mantra was one of the most terrifying binding techniques. He finally understood why Si Wuya did not retaliate at all. This was why Si Wuya’s cultivation base was sealed.

Si Wuya said with a faint smile, “Fourth Senior Brother, do you know who did this?”

“I wasn’t there when this happened, why are you asking me?” Mingshi Yin replied with a question. This reply told Si Wuya that Mingshi Yin was not on the flying chariot in Clarity Sect.

‘In that case, Mingshi Yin’s presence on Yellow Peak Mountain has nothing to do with master.’ Si Wuya felt relieved when he thought about this. He said, “Master’s the one who put this Binding Mantra on me.”

“Master?” Mingshi Yin was shocked. He recalled that his master had been using really unusual techniques lately. Whether it was Buddhist mudras or Daoist seals, he found them peculiar. ‘And now, he’s even using mantras?’ He felt slightly skeptical.

Si Wuya said, “There’s no need to doubt me, senior brother. This was indeed done by the old man. You’ll understand once you return to the Evil Sky Pavilion.”

“Even if it is, you deserve it!”

“… after I was hit by this mantra, I lost my cultivation base. Danger lurks everywhere in the cultivation world. There are many sects that’ll love to flay me alive. Since you’re able to find your way to Yellow Peak Mountain, senior brother, others would be able to find their way here as well. Aren’t you worried that master would do something equally as cruel to you in the future as well?” Si Wuya asked.

“Spare me these discord-sowing words. You betrayed the Evil Sky Pavilion, deceived your master, and denounced your patriarch. I won’t be surprised even if master decides to kill you.” Mingshi Yin paused briefly before he said, “Come back with me to face master!”
