My Disciples Are All Villains

Chapter 251 Offer A Sacrifice

Lu Zhou did not even look at the ten nuns as he continued walking toward Wu Nian.

When the ten nuns gathered in midair, Mingshi Yin moved at lightning speed, Little Yuan’er unfurled her Nirvana Sash, and Duanmu Sheng brandished his Overlord Spear.

On the cloud-splitting chariot, Hua Yuexing held her breath. Her eyes glinted resolutely as she widened her feet and got into position. “Leave the rest to me…”

The Separation Hook glinted coldly in the light and shot at one of the nuns.

The Overlord Spear pierced another nun.

Not to be outdone, the Nirvana Sash took down a nun as well.

The three of them heard Hua Yuexing’s words so they no longer acted after taking out one target each.

“Ding! Killed three Divine Court realm targets. Reward: 300 merit points.” “This is a sin! A sin!” Wu Nian’s eyes reddened as she looked at her ten disciples. She wanted to save them, but alas, everything happened too quickly. She could not react in time.

Seven arrows formed by energy shot out and sailed through the air at a rapid speed. They flew in different directions, landing on the seven remaining nuns from Cloud Shine Nunnery. The seven nuns fell to the ground and spat out mouthfuls of blood.

Hua Yuexing said awkwardly, “I’m sorry… I… I still need to work harder.”

Mingshi Yin said, “You’re doing fine. You just need a little more force behind your strikes.”

“Thank you for your compliment, Mister Fourth.”

Meanwhile, Lu Zhou did not hesitate and raised his right hand. With his cultivation base in the Divine Court realm, he was invincible to someone who had his or her cultivation sealed. He gathered Primal Qi in his palm before an energy seal appeared. Then, he struck Wu Nian’s dantian.

Boom!

Wu Nian grunted and rolled across the ground.

Lu Zhou withdrew his harm and placed them on his back before he said, “The Jade Horsetail Whisk’s owner shouldn’t tarnish herself with the filth from the secular world nor should she concern herself with the affairs of men. She should remain steadfast in the face of fame and riches. This is a small punishment for you.” After he finished speaking, he tossed the Jade Horsetail Whisk to Little Yuan’er who was standing behind him.

Little Yuan’er deftly caught the horsetail whisk. She remembered her master had promised to give her the Jade Horsetail Whist. She had longed for the weapon even though it had been given away. However, now, as she studied the horsetail whisk and recalled it had been used by this despicable old nun, she felt repulsed by it. “Master, since I have the Nirvana Sash, you can give this to senior brother!” she hurriedly said before tossing the horsetail whisk to Duanmu Sheng.

When Duanmu Sheng saw this, he hastily sent out a wave of energy and pushed the horsetail whisk away. He sent it toward Mingshi Yin and said, “Old Fourth, you can have it…” When he recalled the junk that Mingshi Yin wielded, he thought the Jade Horsetail Whisk would be a huge improvement.

Mingshi Yin looked at the horsetail whisk with a hint of distaste as he said, “No, no, no. This weapon doesn’t suit me…” He hurriedly raised his hand and sent it toward the cloud-splitting chariot. “Let Elder Hua have it.”

Hua Wudao frowned. It was true that horsetail whisks were usually used by the older generation, but they were mostly used by Daoist priests or monks. He was neither a Daoist priest nor a monk. What use would he have for this? For this reason, he shook his head and said, “This should be given to someone else.”

The female cultivators onboard the flying chariot beamed as they looked at it.

For cultivators at their levels, such an item was something they had always dreamed of owning. It was something they could only obtain by chance. Regardless if it was a horsetail whisk that did not suit them, they still wanted it.

Although Hua Yuexing wanted the Jade Horsetail Whisk as well, her desire was not as strong compared to the female cultivators.

The onlookers watched with their mouths agape. An item that most people spent their whole lives seeking was treated with such little value by the people from Evil Sky Pavilion! They were tossing it around like a piece of trash that nobody wanted. They could only shake their heads, vexed. Lu Zhou glanced at it and said in a deep voice, “Preposterous!”

Silence descended.

Little Yuan’er was startled. She lowered her head and said, “I’ve made a mistake.”

“Take the Jade Horsetail Whisk.” Lu Zhou sounded calm, but his tone brooked no arguments.

Upon hearing this, the female cultivators onboard the flying chariot dismissed their thoughts about the horsetail whisk. They did not think it was unreasonable. After all, with their cultivation bases, would they even be able to use the Jade Horsetail Whisk to its full potential? Moreover, an innocent person might get into trouble for possessing a valuable item. If they did not have the strength to hold onto the weapon, it was better for them to be without it.

At this moment, Wu Nian sat up with great difficulty. She looked at Lu Zhou who stood near her but did not say anything. She turned to look at Luo Xingkong’s corpse, the Bright Mirror’s effects were completely gone. Her eyelids twitched. “I’ve made a mistake…”

Luo Xingkong’s body gradually changed color… His skin turned black as though he was burned by a black flame.

The Cloud Shine Nunnery was not the only helper that the Heavenly Sword Sect sought out. They seemed to have colluded with other forces as well based on the sudden appearance of the black flame.

It was too late for Wu Nian to regret her actions. She knew why Luo Xingkong was injured. It seemed to be the ace up his sleeve.

The onlookers were shocked.

“What’s that?”

“Some arcane art that Luo Xingkong cultivated?”

The Heavenly Sword Sect disciples were puzzled by this as well.

Lu Zhou looked at Luo Xingkong. “A sacrificial offering?”

Hua Wudao recognized this as well. He cupped his fists and said, “We shouldn’t linger for much longer. Kindly board the chariot, Pavilion Master.”

Lu Zhou nodded.

Sacrificial offerings were carried out to draw forth some greater power. In other words, before Luo Xingkong came, he had already sold his body or soul to someone. Someone must have laid a trap on the Lotus Dais.

Lu Zhou surveyed his surroundings. He had waited so long for the Heavenly Sword Sect’s accomplices to show up but only Cloud Shine Nunnery had shown up. Would the stronger accomplices show up? The onlookers seemed to have noticed something was amiss as well even though they could not exactly figure out what was wrong. They began to look around uneasily. Some of the more timid cultivators quickly took the chance and fled from the Lotus Dais.

At this moment, a flying chariot could be seen flying away next to the third pavilion.

“The Nether Sect’s flying chariot?”

“The Nether Sect is here?”

“Well, they’re leaving now! They’re running away!”

The flying chariot flew away at top speed. In fact, the Nether Sect’s flying chariot was not the only one. Many cultivators were fleeing the Lotus Dais in small groups. “Run! Something bad’s going to happen!” That was how human psychology worked. People would usually follow the crowd. Moreover, they could see Luo Xingkong’s body was being used as a sacrificial offering.

The entire place descended into chaos.

Lu Zhou rose into the air and surveyed the surroundings again.

Little Yuan’er grew energetic when she saw the Nether Sect’s flying chariot. “Master… That’s the Nether Sect’s flying chariot, should we give chase?”

Lu Zhou shook his head. The Nether Sect’s flying chariot had flown away quite a while now, how were they going to catch up to it?

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng rose into the

air.

Boom! Boom Boom!

At this moment, a series of explosions rang in the towering pavilions around the Lotus Dais. With the dais at the center, a mass of black energy began to roll out.

Hua Wudao cupped his fists. “It’s the power of the sacrifice… A grand shaman is controlling his puppet.”

Lu Zhou calmly returned to the flying chariot. He placed his hands on his back and continued looking down at the scene below. ‘Is this Luo Xingkong’s source of confidence?’ He speculated inwardly. ‘Is this Mo Li’s doing?’

However, Mo Li was injured. She could not have unleashed strength comparable to a grand shaman. A grand shaman was equal to an Eight-leaf cultivator.

Among the fleeing cultivators, a few of them could be seen being shrouded by the black mass of energy.

Hua Wudao looked at the scene and said, “A controlling technique. Looks like the Heavenly Sword Sect had been preparing for this for a long time.”

“This is to another party’s benefit…”

Little Yuan’er, Mingshi Yin, and Duanmu Sheng returned to the flying chariot.

Behind a rock near a pavilion in the distance.

Si Wuya silently looked at the flying chariot above Lotus Dais. “It seems like the Heavenly Sword Sect went all out…”

“Sect master, it’s dangerous here. We should retreat. The Lotus Dais is now under the control of a grand shaman. The cloud-splitting chariot wouldn’t be able to escape.

“No need.” Si Wuya shook his head. “Let’s wait for a while.”
