My Disciples Are All Villains

Lu Zhou did not immediately answer the ridiculous question. Instead, he looked at the Qin Yuan with a deep gaze, causing goosebumps to erupt all over her body.

With that, the Qin Yuan no longer dared to continue. Her intelligence was on par with that of humans. She seemed to realize her question was disrespectful so she hastily said, "I didn't mean to offend you, my lord. I don't know why I asked such a stupid question when it's obvious that you must have won."

Lu Zhou stared at the Qin Yuan unblinkingly.

An idea to dispel the somewhat awkward atmosphere appeared in the Qin Yuan's mind, and she immediately asked, "My lord, you said you came to Fragrant Valley because of your disciples?"

Lu Zhou nodded. After chatting for so long, he had forgotten about this matter.

The Qin Yuan smiled and said, "The Qin Yuan hive is willing to help you, my lord."

"You can help me?" Lu Zhou asked skeptically.

"Of course," the Qin Yuan said confidently, "The effects of the fragrances of the flowers here are created by our Qin Yuan hive. There's nothing we can do on the other side of the center point; if we cross the center point, we'll be greatly affected. We've long known there are humans in Fragrant Valley. However, no humans have reached the deepest part of the valley before. As long as it doesn't affect our hive, we don't care. If you want to train your disciple, Fragrant Valley is the best place. I'll do my best to help you, my lord."

Lu Zhou was slightly surprised by the Qin Yuan's words. He did not expect the strange flowers and their equally strange fragrances were the works of the Qin Yuan hive. He thought they really resembled the insects from Earth. He asked, "Apart from living off the flowers' fragrances, you also live off their nectar?"

The Qin Yuan nodded. "That's right. I didn't expect the Unholy One to also understand our great Qin Yuan hive."

Lu Zhou felt slightly embarrassed on the Qin Yuan's behalf when he heard her saying the words 'our great Qin Yuan hive'. Nonetheless, he said without changing his expression, "Then, how do you plan to help me?"

The Qin Yuan smiled and said, "I can cross the center point with you so I can study and understand your disciples. Then, I can use our Qin Yuan hive's powers to create a perfect place for your disciples. Whether they're Venerable Masters, Saints, or Dao Saints, they can pass their Birth Trials here. Our Qin Yuan clan will help them pass their Birth Trials."

Lu Zhou did not let his guard down. After all, the other party was an ancient Saint slayer, not an ordinary fierce beast. If he let her cross the center point, the Evil Sky Pavilion might suffer a great disaster. After a moment, he asked, "You can cross the center point?"

"No, but with the help of humans, I can," the Qin Yuan said.

"How can I trust you?" Lu Zhou asked as he stood with his hands on his back.

"Honorable lord, please trust our Qin Yuan hive. If we harbor any ill intentions, we're willing to be punished by you," the Qin Yuan said.

How could Lu Zhou not see through the thoughts of the Qin Yuan in front of him? The Qin Yuan's thoughts were rather simple: she wanted him to resurrect her daughter and obtain his support. With that, when the Qin Yuan hive returned to the Great Void, their status would be restored along with the Unholy one. However, the matter of him pretending to be the Unholy One would be exposed sooner or later. When that time came, would it not be troublesome since he had offended a hive of ancient Saint slayers?

The enemies of the Evil Sky Pavilion were numerous and powerful. Lu Zhou did not even know how many enemies he had in the Great Void. Naturally, the more friends and allies he had, the better it would be. However, there were too many uncertainties and risks with the Qin Yuan hive so they were not suitable to join the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Lu Zhou was still deep in his thoughts when he heard a brief retching noise. When he looked up, he saw the Qin Yuan had spat out a life heart from her mouth. Then, she presented it to him with both hands and said, "In order to express my sincerity, please accept this, my lord."

"???"

'I really don't have this intention!'

However, was there anyone who did not want the life heart of an ancient Saint slayer?

Lu Zhou coughed twice. His expression remained the same as he asked, "Is there a need for this?"

"My lord, you're worthy of this. After all, the future of the Qin Yuan hive and the hope of resurrecting my daughter lies with you."

Lu Zhou was ready to extend his hand to accept the life heart, but when he heard the Qin Yuan's words, he did not move his hands. He did not think he was a kind person or a savior of the world. However, he had his own principles when doing things. He did not have a way to resurrect the Qin Yuan's daughter so he could accept the life heart. Finally, he waved his hand and said, "Put it away."

However, the Qin Yuan had made up her mind to express her sincerity. She was certain the person in front of her was the great Unholy One who shook the world; after all, only the Unholy One would be unmoved by her life heart. If she missed this golden opportunity, the Qin Yuan hive would not have the chance to return to the Great Void and regain their past glories. With all these thoughts, she grew even more determined. She kneeled on one knee and present the life heart with both hands as she said, "My lord, please accept it!"

Following that, the other Qin Yuans, who had taken human forms at some point, kneeled and said in unison, "My lord, please accept it!"

Lu Zhou frowned. "I do need the life heart, but it'll take some time for my cultivation to recover. I don't know how long before I regain my cultivation so I can't promise you anything."

The Qin Yuan said excitedly, "I've been waiting for 100,000 years. It won't take long. With your ability, it won't take long for you to return to your peak! I can wait, and our Qin Yuan clan can wait!"

Lu Zhou thought about it for a moment.

'Although I'm not the Unholy One, I have his Hourglass of Time. I've also grasped his cultivation path and possess his Scripture of Sermons that contains the Resurrection Scroll.'
