My Disciples Are All Villains

Zeng Yan, the Sect Leader of the Heaven Seeking Sect, and his disciples had a strange expression on their faces. All of them thought to themselves. 'How can this person be so pretentious? The Luan is just behind him. Isn't seeking death by presenting his back to the Luan?'

Just as this thought appeared in their minds, they saw Luan suddenly split into a few pieces. Blood and lumps of meat rained down to the ground.

Each of the strikes was precise when striking the Luan. The cuts were neat and did not damage the life heart. The crystal clear life heart lay among the meat. It shone dazzlingly under the sunlight.

"This..."

Needless to say, the people from the Heaven Seeking Sect were dumbstruck. They watched with their mouths agape; shocked expressions could be seen on their faces. When they regained their senses, they could not help but gulp and take a step back. Some of them had ten leaves as well, but why was the difference in their strength so great?

Meanwhile, Zeng Yan truly felt he had eight lifetimes of bad luck. Sure enough, someone came to snatch the life heart again. After a moment, he suddenly recalled the avatar earlier. It was not red, but it contained a hint of red. However, the energy sword was definitely not red. Was the person in front of him Old Demon Lu's disciple?

Yu Shangrong broke the silence first. "Let me give all of you a piece of advice: act within your capabilities…"

"Uh… this…"

Zeng Yan and the others had completely lost their ferocity from earlier.

An elder at the side asked, "May I ask if you're from the golden lotus domain?"

The people from the Heaven Seeking Sect knew the Black Water Mystic Cave connected the red lotus domain and the golden lotus domain. This swordsman appeared and used golden energy swords; it was obvious he was from the golden lotus domain.

Yu Shangrong only smiled faintly and said, "See you again..."

Following that, Yu Shangrong disappeared into the distant horizon.

Everyone was stunned for a long time before they finally regained their senses.

"Sect Master, the life heart! He didn't take the life heart!" one of the Heaven Seeking Sect disciples cried out excitedly.

Upon hearing these words, all of them were overjoyed.

Zeng Yan's eyes burned as he held the life heart in his hand. He laughed as he lifted it in the air, looking slightly crazy.

...

Similar situations were happening all over the red lotus domain and were also gradually happening in the golden lotus domain.

The Black Tower Council no longer monopolized both domains so life hearts were now no longer as much of a rarity like before.

The Birth Chart Beasts would come to those who needed them.

…

Meanwhile, with Yu Zhenghai operating the runic passage, the travel was rather smooth. It was like clear spring water, flowing unobstructed. Their speed was neither fast nor slow.

"Elder Senior Brother, you've gotten even better than before!" Little Yuan'er said as she looked around the surroundings while she twirled her hair.

"Ninth Junior Sister, do you want to learn?"

"No."

Yu Zhenghai. "..."

At this time, a creaking noise rang from all directions. Following that, the tunnel of light flashed with a white light that seemed almost silver.

"We're here…"

After the light dissipated, a vast and white world appeared before everyone's eyes.

They were standing on top of a 1,000-feet-tall peak. They could see the small mountains in their surroundings from where they were standing.

The peak could only accommodate the runic passage and those in it; no more, no less.

A cold wind blew against them.

"So this is the white lotus domain…" Little Yuan'er looked around curiously at the snow-covered surroundings. Apart from snow, there was nothing else.

Ning Wanqing said, "This place is remote and is the highest place here. The white tower stands at the highest place. All the foreign tribes submit to the." Then, he pointed west before he continued to say, "Over there was where the Duo Gan foreign tribe's Tubo was located. To the north is the territory of the Tarzi foreign tribes. And..."

Lu Zhou interjected, "I'm not interested in these things. Lead the way."

Ning Wanqing's cultivation base had been unsealed, but he still did not dare to act recklessly. He nodded and flew toward the White Tower Council.

In less than fifteen minutes, they saw a white tower that towered past the clouds.

Little Yuan'er looked up and discovered she could not see the top of the white tower that was hundreds of thousands of feet tall. It seemed to connect heaven and earth.

At the base of the tower, the buildings seemed almost invisible, hidden under the snow.

"The Black Tower Council has a heptagram layout, but there seems to be nothing out of the ordinary with the White Tower Council," Yu Zhenghai said.

Ning Wanqing shook his head. "That's where you're wrong. The White Tower is blessed by the heavens. Although there's only one main tower, its strength is not inferior to the Black Tower Council's heptagram formation."

Si Wuya studied the sight in front of him for a moment and discovered a few things. "By using the tower as the core of the formation and building it at the highest place, it allows easier absorption of Primal Qi. However, it's nothing amazing. You need to build more Primal Qi-gathering formations around the tower for you to say the White Tower Council isn't inferior to the Black Tower Council's heptagram formation…"

Ning Wanqing. "..."

It did not take long before they landed near the white tower.

When more than ten white-clad cultivators saw Ning Wanqing, they greeted him immediately.

"Welcome back, Judge Ning."

Ning Wanqing said, "Inform the Tower Master that a distinguished guest has arrived."

"Understood."

…

At the top 100,000-feet white tower, Lan Xihe had witnessed everything. Before her subordinates could report to her, she said to her attendant, "Invite Pavilion Master Lu to the 72nd floor."

"Understood."

..,

On the 72nd floor of the white tower.

A blue-clad attendant said, "Pavilion Master Lu, please."

The 72nd floor of the white tower showed off its luxurious and magnificent architecture. In the center of the room stood a table that was dozens of feet long that was covered by a white table cloth. At the end of the table was a chair that was three times the height of a human.

Lan Xihe, who was sitting on that tall chair, looked petite. At this moment, she said with a smile, "We meet again, Pavilion Master Lu. Please sit"

Lu Zhou looked at Lan Xihe; it seemed like she had been waiting for his arrival. He did not stand on ceremony and took a seat immediately.

The blue-clad attendant looked at Si Wuya and the others and said, "Everyone, this way please."

The people who came with Lu Zhou took their seats at both sides of the table while the white-clad cultivators stood on both sides, not daring to take a seat.

Lan Xihe asked without beating around the bush, "Pavilion Master Lu, may I know the reason you decided to grace us with your presence?"

Lu Zhou replied, "It's said that Tower Master Lan has lived for a long time so I have some questions I'd like to ask in person…"

"Please speak..." Lan Xihe maintained a faint smile on her face.

Lu Zhou asked, "Were you the mastermind behind the Great Void Expedition back then?"

During the journey to the Black Tower Council, Lu Zhou and Lan Xihe had spoken about this matter briefly. Since they did not have much time, they did not go too in-depth about the matter.

Lu Zhou was very curious about this matter. After all, Ji Tiandao went to the Unknown Land more than 300 years ago and managed to obtain the Great Void Seeds that were highly coveted by many strong forces from various domains.

Lan Xihe replied honestly, "Yes."

"Where's the Great Void?" Lu Zhou asked directly.

Lan Xihe's smile widened. The question seemed to have surprised her slightly. "Pavilion Master Lu, shouldn't you know this better than I do?"

'I really don't know anything at all,' Lu Zhou thought to himself. There was too little information about the Unknown Land, or the Great Void, in the memory crystal. All he saw was falling black lotuses. In the end, he shook his head and said, "What I know is limited…"

Lan Xihe sighed and said, "The Unknown Land is incredibly dangerous. There are many terrifying fierce beasts there. Fierce beasts that are hundreds of times stronger than Ying Zhao are commonplace there. The original objective of the Great Void Expedition was to explore the secrets of the world's origin."

"The world's origin?"

"Since the time humans existed, the Heavens have allowed humans to cultivate. However, at the same time, the Heavens placed different limitations across different domains. The purpose of the expedition was to discover the secret of the heaven and earth's shackles…"
