My disciples are all villains.

Chapter 1007: You Must Be Tired of Living

Lu Zhou rose into the air and flew away.

The thousands of cultivators in Southern Mountain City looked at each other, dumbfounded. When they regained their senses, Lu Zhou had already disappeared into the horizon.

"Did we just miss out on a chance to obtain life hearts?"

"I… I think so…"

After Lu Zhou dealt with the beast tide, he no longer spared it any thought. After all, since the birth of mankinds, there had always been disasters. Whether they were natural or man-made disasters like earthquakes, tsunamis, or wars, history had always been filled with blood and years.

In the always dark and gloomy Southern Kingdom.

Yu Shangrong held his Longevity Sword as he looked at Ning Wanqing and said, "You better not move."

Ning Wanqing, naturally, had no intention of moving. During his bloody battle with King Chen of Wu and Luo Huan, he had only won by a fluke. He managed to kill Luo Huan, but the injured King Chen of Wu managed to escape. Needless to say, he was injured as well. At that time, he had thought he had successfully obtained Ying Zhao's life heart. Who knew it turned out to be fake? Not only that, but even the person in front of him was a fake Ten-leaf cultivator!

Ning Wanqing looked down at the palm print on his chest. He had received this when he had gone to the mountain range to look for Lu Zhou. He shook his head when his eyes landed on the sword wounds on his body that were left by Yu Shangrong. He asked with a bitter smile, "Are you really just a Ten-leaf cultivator?"

Yu Shangrong only smiled faintly and did not respond to Ning Wanqing's question.

On the other hand, Xiao Yunhe stood next to the pit and looked at Xu Chen, the First Elder of the White Tower Council.

Xu Chen had regained consciousness for quite a while now. At this moment, he was looking at the sky in a daze. He could not retaliate at all earlier; in the end, he was only left with five Birth Charts. This was even worse than death.

At this time, Xiao Yunhe asked, "Xu Chen, do you regret it?"

Xu Chen let out a shaky breath before he finally said, "Xiao… Xiao Yunhe, y-you're really… despicable…"

"In your eyes, honest people have become sinister villains; kind deeds are seen as cunning schemes. When there's sh*t in your eyes, the world you see is sh*t as well," Xiao Yunhe said as he shook his head and sighed.

"You're such a hypocrite! If you're so good, why did you end up like this?" Xu Chen said with a sneer.

"It's precisely because I'm good that I ended up like this. I can only blame myself for being too trusting. Sometimes, your kindness can be used against you…" Xiao Yunhe said.

Xu Chen spat before he said, "Xiao Yunhe, don't talk as if you're so kind and noble. How many members of the White Tower Council had died in your hands?"

"The Black Tower Council and the White Tower Council are enemies, to begin with. Death and injuries are inevitable. Think about it: how did I treat the White Tower Council when I was the Tower Master, and how Xia Zhenrong treats the White Tower Council after becoming the Tower Master?" Xiao Yunhe's voice grew louder and louder as he spoke. "You already know the answer to that so why must you lie to yourself?"

Xu Chen fell silent. In the past, when Xiao Yunhe was assumed dead, the White Tower Council had lent the Black Tower Council a helping hand. Everyone hoped the White Tower Council and the Black Tower Council would be able to coexist peacefully. However, it was a pity that the situation grew worse after Xia Zhenrong became the Tower Master. Not only did Xia Zhenrong manipulated the entire red lotus domain, but he even ignored the agreement between the two councils and did things behind the White Tower Council's back.

"Alas, no matter what, we're on different sides, and we're enemies…" Xu Chen suddenly clapped his hands. Then, he shot out of the deep pit that was dozens of meters deep.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Xiao Yunhe raised his hands to defend and attack.

Energy seals sailed in the air, and the ground shook slightly.

After retreating dozens of meters, Xiao Yunhe stomped his foot, causing the ground to crack. Following that, he raised his hand, and a black astrolabe appeared in his hand.

Boom!

Xu Chen stumbled a few steps back before he regained his footing. He wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and looked to the left and the right. The strongest person present on the scene at this moment should be Xiao Yunhe. However, with his current strength and injuries, he was no match for Xiao Yunhe. He had to think of a way to escape.

After thinking for a moment, Xu Chen stepped forward and drew a circle with his hand. Then, energy swords appeared in the white circle before they shot out with explosive strength.

Xiao Yunhe pushed his astrolabe out, blocking the energy swords.

Upon seeing this, Xu Chen flew backward as he shouted, "Ning Wanqing, what are you standing there for?!"

Xu Chen knew the only hope for him to turn the table now was Ning Wanqing. He knew Ning Wanqing still had a trump card, after all.

Alas, Ning Wanqing was completely lost in his thoughts that he did not hear Xu Chen at all.

Xiao Yunhe shouted, "If I let you escape today, wouldn't I disappoint Brother Lu?"

Subsequently, Xiao Yunhe withdrew his astrolabe. He raised his hand as his hexagonal weapon appeared in it. His body flashed as he extended his hand.

The hexagonal weapon spun rapidly like a vortex as it shot out.

No matter what, Xiao Yunhe was once a 12 Chart expert. His combat experience was not inferior to Xu Chen at all.

Chills ran up Xu Chen's spine at this moment. He hurriedly turned back and pushed his astrolabe out to defend against the attack.

Xiao Yunhe asked, "You think you can block my weapon?"

The wind howled in the air as the hexagonal weapon shot out. In a blink of an eye, it arrived in front of Xu Chen.

Bang!

Xu Chen's astrolabe was dented immediately. The impact pushed it back against his chest, causing him to fly back in the air.

Alas, the direction Xu Chen was sent flying toward was where Yu Shangrong was standing. After he grunted and spat out a mouthful of blood, he suppressed the pain and pounced at Yu Shangrong. "I'll make an example out of you!"

Buzz!

Xu Chen's avatar appeared in the air. The five Birth Charts on his white Thousand Realms Whirling avatar shone blindingly bright.

"Not good." Xiao Yunhe's expression changed slightly. He moved at top speed, but it was too late.

Meanwhile, Yu Shangrong looked up when Xu Chen arrived in front of him. The fierce wind lifted his hair, revealing his sharp and handsome features. A faint smile could be seen on his face at this moment.

Xu Chen's heart trembled for a moment when he saw Yu Shangrong's calmness. He forced himself to calm down as he said in a deep voice, "Die!"

Bang!

Yu Shangrong held the Longevity Sword horizontally in front of him, blocking Xu Chen's palm strike.

Xu Chen's expression darkened. "So what if you manage to block it this time? You're still going to die!" He used his palm seal and grabbed hold of the tip of Yu Shangrong's sword before he rushed north.

Xiao Yunhe who had finally arrived brought his hexagonal weapon down from the sky, trying to separate Xu Chen from Yu Shangrong.

Yu Shangrong tried to swing his sword but found that he could not move.

Xu Chen sneered. "You think you can kill me? I'll kill him before you can do so!" His goal was to hold Yu Shangrong hostage so he could escape.

At this moment, Yu Shangrong shook his head and said, "You must be tired of living…"

"Huh?" At this moment, Xu Chen felt something at his back. He spun around and saw a golden giant bringing down a golden sword with both hands.

Bang!

The first strike caused Xu Chen's qi and blood to surge and his body to go numb.

Bang!

The second strike made his mind go blank and his internal organs to tremble violently.

Bang!

The third strike frightened Xu Chen so much as he cried out, "Monster!"

At this time, the hexagonal weapon landed squarely on Xu Chen's chest as well.

Yu Shangrong held the Longevity Sword and attacked. In just a moment, over 100,000 energy swords appeared as ten golden leaves spun around him.

"This speed… He's a fake Ten-lead cultivator?" Xu Chen finally understood the words Ning Wanqing had said to him and Shi Youran earlier after returning from the mountain range. Alas, realization dawned on him too late.

As the energy swords shot out, Yu Shangrong moved nimbly and swiftly as he attacked.

Meanwhile, Xu Chen felt as though his body was falling apart after the hexagonal weapon struck him. It felt like there was nothing he could do at this moment apart from waiting to be slaughtered.

The terrifying energy swords from the flood-grade Longevity Sword landed on Xu Chen's body one after another. It easily cut through Xu Chen's protective energy as though it was tofu.

Yu Shangrong's figure flickered up, down, left, right, and back. Every time he flashed, he would swing his sword with all his might. His final strike pierced Xu Chen's chest.

Xu Chen roared in pain and anger as he attacked, trying to force Yu Shangrong to retreat.

Yu Shangrong seemed to have expected this. He continued to attack with his Longevity Sword.

At the same time, a golden avatar appeared at Xu Chen's back, preventing him from retreating.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Yunhe could not help but mutter to himself, "What techniques is this? I've never seen something like this before..."

At this moment, the Longevity Sword finally pierced Xu Chen's heart before Yu Shangrong quickly pulled it out.

With this, Xu Chen lost another Birth Chart. He cried out in pain as he turned to strike with his palm, intending to destroy Yu Shangrong's avatar. Unfortunately, his attack missed, and the golden avatar vanished into thin air.

Following that, the golden avatar appeared above Xu Chen's head as it brought down the sword it held tightly in its hands.

Bang!

Xu Chen lost another Birth Chart; his speed, strength, speed, and stamina had decreased greatly! He was shocked; he was actually defeated by a mere Ten-leaf cultivator! How was this possible? The golden avatar was clearly a Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar not the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar! How was this possible?!
