My Disciples Are All Villains

Chapter 330 Why Are Eight-leafs Elites So Powerful?

Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong hovered in the air as they faced each other in the distance.

Their blades vibrated from their energies.

Swoosh!

Both of them vanished at the same time. In the next second, they reappeared and collided above the Hundred Leaves Lake.

There was a vertical outburst of energy from the point of their collision. Their energies plunged into the lake like a shining golden blade, and the water parted.

The Hundred Leaves Lake seemed like it was instantly split into half. The water in the lake shot into the air.

Shortly after, the air was filled with countless energy blades that hit every droplet in the surroundings and shot toward Yu Shangrong. Energy blades spun as they shot out relentlessly. The densely packed energy blades surrounded him. He hovered in the midst of the energy blades with his eyes closed. He closed his ears to other sounds. The energy blades kept everything else away from him.

Si Wuya shook his head helplessly. He could not remain here. He decided to watch the battle from another spot. ‘Why do they have to do this? Isn’t it good enough if they just forgo using their Primal Qi, take a seat, and talk things through?’

Si Wuya sped in the other direction. With a simple leap, he flew onto a peak several miles away and sat there with his legs crossed. He adjusted his breath and tried to meditate, occasionally taking a peek. He muttered, “Oh, whatever! Just fight to your heart’s content… This will never end.”

He knew how powerful the two opponents were. This battle would go on for some time. He decided that it was better for him to take a rest and wait until they were done with their battle.

Above the Hundred Leaves Lake.

The energy blades seemed to have covered the skies.

“Retreat!” Hua Chongyang raised his hand again. He had a feeling that the battle would become even more terrifying from here on out.

Bai Yuqing looked at the two opponents in the air with a complicated gaze. “Is this what true Eight-leaf elites are like?”

“Perhaps,” Hua Chongyang glanced at the other three and said, “They haven’t even unleashed their avatars yet.”

The three of them nodded. If those two decided to unleash their avatars and grand techniques, just how destructive would the battle be?

The flying chariot retreated and climbed even higher into the sky.

Yu Shangrong opened his eyes at this moment. His energy blades froze. The Longevity Sword was bent to his will. All blades vibrated and launched a coordinated attack.

The battle intensified!

The space above the Hundred Leaves Lake was filled with energy blades.

The energy blades of both opponents parried each other. Their energies burst and rippled into the surroundings. The impact of the battle was spreading toward the banks. The large trees near the lake were affected as well.

Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai’s bodies vanished in the horizons.

The audience knew that they did not exactly vanish. The two opponents were just moving at an incredibly fast speed that they were not visible to the naked eyes. The only things the audience could see were the energy blades that seemed to have blocked out the sun and the sky. Meanwhile, there were also bursts of energies when the two collided.

A battle such as this was boring for Lu Zhou. He shook his head and no longer stroked his beard. Instead, he turned around and walked back to Cloud Shine Nunnery with his hands on his back.

Duan Xing asked, perplexed. “Old senior… you… you’re not going to watch the battle?”

Lu Zhou ignored him. He returned to his lodging and sat with his legs crossed with his back facing the round window. He continued meditating on the Heavenly Writing.

It was just as he had expected, Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai’s cultivation bases were on par with each other. Their battle would drag on for a long time. When Lu Zhou sat down, he checked the cooldown timer… There were slightly more than three days left to go. He hoped his disciples’ battle would not end so soon.

At this moment, Buddhist Master Xuan Jing’s voice rang from outside. “Benefactor Ji.” “What’s the matter?”

“There are elites fighting at the Hundred Leaves Lake. As to not affect the Cloud Shine Nunnery, I suggest we move to another place, Benefactor Ji,” Xuan Jing replied. “Are you willing to see Cloud Shine Nunnery being destroyed?” Lu Zhou responded with a question. “Well…” Xuan Jing stood in the courtyard. She sighed helplessly and said, “The current Cloud Shine Nunnery is but a pale image of what it once was. If it is destroyed, then, so be it.”

Lu Zhou said, “I see.” He did not say if he agreed to changing the location.

Xuan Jing felt it would be rude to speak anymore so she turned around and left.

At the same time, Duan Xing walked in through the courtyard’s door. He saluted Xuan Jing and continued making his way in. After that, he bowed and said, “Senior… I’ve discovered that there’s a minor barrier in Cloud Shine Nunnery that we can use. Although my cultivation base is a far cry from the Eight-leaf stage, I can still manage a Formation or two. What do you say to…”

“There’s no need to activate the barrier,” Lu Zhou interjected.

“Understood.” If the barrier was activated, would that not be equivalent to announcing to the rascals that there was an elite in Cloud Shine Nunnery? No cultivator would dare come close to this area. If he were to startle those two rascals, and they left, all his earlier efforts would go to waste.

Lu Zhou closed his eyes and entered the meditation state again. He had a millennium’s worth of knowledge and experience. Hence, he was used to seeing great battles such as this one… However, for the others, this was a rare opportunity for them to experience and learn from.

That was why Duan Xing and the Nether Sect’s Four Great Protectors continued to watch the fight through the night.

The second day…

Lu Zhou opened his eyes and glanced at the system’s dashboard. He checked the cooldown status of the item cards and glanced at the Hundred Leaves Lake as well. The overlapping mountains that once stood outside his window had changed. Lilac Mountain seemed to have lost half its height. He looked at the forest around Hundred Leaves Lake, the area had been flattened. The peaks nearby were nowhere in sight as well. Cloud Shine Peak was the only mountain that remained unharmed.

Lu Zhou thought they would have to move to another place if Cloud Shine Peak was caught in this battle. Who knew the rascals would not touch Cloud Shine Nunnery? It was clear they had deliberately avoided this place.

Why was an Eight-leaf cultivator so powerful? The answer was perfectly displayed at this moment.

Duan Xing scratched his face. He seemed to feel numb all over so he smacked his own face.

Smack!

‘Ouch! Right. This is f*cking real!’

Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong, who had fought for a day and a night, had shifted the location of their battle from above the Hundred Leaves Lake to Radiant Cloud Forest.

Thousands of birds and beasts scurried away in fright. Some of the beasts that could not escape in time were killed by the occasional stray energy blades.

Another day passed. Lu Zhou opened his eyes again and woke up from his meditation state.

It was quieter now without the sounds of colliding energies.

The intense sounds of battle had suddenly stopped after having continued for two days and two nights. Everyone was curious about it.

Lu Zhou slowly rose to his feet and looked in the direction of the Hundred Leaves Lake.

The two peaks at the sides of Lilac Mountain opposite of Hundred Leaves Lake were occupied by a person each. The intense battle seemed to have stopped.

The Jasper Saber was hovering on Yu Zhenghai’s right. Meanwhile, the Longevity Sword hovered a foot before Yu Shangrong. “Junior brother… How much Primal Qi do you have left?” Yu Zhenghai asked calmly.

“I’ve barely wasted any. What about you, senior brother?” Yu Shangrong replied with a smile.

“Me too…”

Yu Shangrong smiled and said, “Let’s get serious, then.”

“Just what I wanted.”

The moment their voices faded.

Whizz!

Whizz!

The resonance of power reverberated thunderously in the air.

Two 100-foot avatars towered over their surroundings. There were two Eight-leaf Golden Lotuses spinning slowly under the avatars.

This was the unique mark of the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm, the Hundred Tribulations Insight Avatar. An Eight-leaf Golden Lotus was a sign of the strongest power among Hundred Tribulations Insight avatars.

Upon seeing this, Hua Chongyang gave a decisive order, “Retreat for ten miles.”

“Retreat for ten miles!”

Meanwhile, Si Wuya shook his head. He said with a sigh, “They finally decided to get serious.” He slowly rose to his feet. With a light leap, he flew into the distance.
