Chapter 163 - : Breaking the Cocoon or Binding Oneself



Chapter 163: Breaking the Cocoon or Binding Oneself

Mingshi Yin and Little Yuan’er came to the side to have a look. Both of them were shocked.

The transparent Primal Qi wrapped itself around Ye Tianxin as more and more Primal Qi was pulled in from the surroundings. Her hair was turning blacker and blacker by the minute, and her skin tone was gradually changing to that of a normal person’s. Her Bai characteristics were slowly disappearing.

“Master, the Primal Qi is still gathering!” Little Yuan’er reminded him.

Lu Zhou remained silent. With his current cultivation base, it was not difficult for him to sense Primal Qi.

Golden Court Mountain was one of the 72 Blessed Lands. It had a natural advantage and was rich in Primal Qi. It was also protected by a barrier and was practically untouchable. This made Golden Court Mountain a place well-suited for cultivation.

Lu Zhou could sense the Primal Qi that was being gathered around them. Moreover, it seemed to be gaining speed.

Creak! Creak! Creak!

“Master, what’s happening?” Little Yuan’er asked, slightly worried.

Mingshi Yin was surprised by the sight. He said, “This might be one of the Bai people’s characteristics.”

“Will Senior Sister Tianxin die…” Little Yuan’er was not very experienced with the affairs of the world. Her opinions and hostility against Ye Tianxin were much lower after this incident.

“I don’t think so.”

Creak!

The Primal Qi formed a special energy that wrapped around Ye Tianxin.

Mingshi Yin cupped his fists and said, “Master, did you know about this special characteristic of the Bais?”

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded. “If she’s not a Bai… How could she be more talented than you in cultivation?”

Upon hearing Lu Zhou’s words, Mingshi Yin was hit with a pang of realization. He had joined the Evil Sky Pavilion much earlier than Ye Tianxin. He had also cultivated painstakingly. However, after Ye Tianxin had joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, her cultivation base surpassed his in no time. For this reason, their master had happily given her the Amorous Hoop. With a heaven-grade weapon in her possession, she became even stronger. He, who prided himself on being a genius, suffered a blow from this. By the time his Little Junior Sister had joined the pavilion, he had already gotten used to it.

At this moment, Ye Tianxin slowly descended on the bed. With a soft grunt, she slowly opened her eyes before taking in her surroundings. When she saw that Lu Zhou was standing beside her, she became emotional and struggled to get up, causing the energy around her to disperse.

Ye Tianxian hurriedly got up and kneeled on the bed. “Since I know the true culprit behind that incident, I wish you’ll allow me to kill that bastard with my own hands, master! After my wish is fulfilled, I’ll atone for my sins with my life!”

“Atone for your sins with your life?”

Mingshi Yin hastily went up to her and said, “This Wei Zhuoyan is a fake! Don’t you go killing the wrong person!”

“A fake?” Ye Tianxin was stunned.

Mingshi Yin filled her in on the latest developments.

When she heard this, Ye Tianxin visibly withered. Her expression was dark, and she appeared to be listless. If it were not for her anger, she might have remained unconscious for a longer period of time.

“Your dantian’s sea of Qi has just recovered. You shouldn’t pull a stunt like that,” Mingshi Yin advised her.

“Just recovered?” Ye Tianxin appeared lost. She hastily lowered her head and looked at the skin of her wrist. Then, she grabbed her own hair. For a moment, she was dumbfounded.

Mingshi Yin said, “You’re a Bai…”

“A Bai?”

“Humans are the most intelligent of all creatures, and yet, many variations exist. Some are tall while some are short; some are fat while some are slim; some are dumb while some are smart… In cultivation, some are more gifted than the others…” Mingshi Yin said cautiously but frankly.

Ye Tianxin was taken aback.

Mingshi Yin was ready to explain things to her slowly.

Lu Zhou raised a hand and interrupted him. He said, “Ye Tianxin, I have a question for you.”

Ye Tianxin immediately trembled. She regained her composure and looked at Lu Zhou subserviently.

“Do you know about Cheng Huang?”

“Cheng Huang?” Ye Tianxin appeared puzzled. Then, she appeared to mull over Lu Zhou’s words. No matter how she racked her brains, she did not know anything about it. She shook her head and said, “I don’t know what Cheng Huang is.”

Lu Zhou’s gaze fell on Ye Tianxin again.

Name: Ye Tianxin

Race: Bai (Human)

Cultivation base: Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm (recovering…)

Lu Zhou noticed that an extra ‘Human’ was added behind the word ‘Bai’ as an added explanation. Also, her cultivation base seemed to be recovering. However, her loyalty had not been triggered. He thought about it for a moment. There was no doubt her hatred had been cleared. Perhaps, she needed to be re-initiated into the pavilion for her loyalty to appear? Did she break the cocoon and morphed into a butterfly, or did she break it only to bind herself?

Lu Zhou was in no hurry anyway so he said, “Never mind…” If even the Bai did not know about Cheng Huang, perhaps, it did not exist in the first place.

Moreover, Lu Zhou had practically no interest in Cheng Huang. With the Reversal Card, he could live on forever as long as he stayed out of harm’s way. Why would he need Cheng Huang?

Lu Zhou’s objective was not Cheng Huang’s life-extending ability. He had a vague feeling that he would be able to regain his lost memories if he could find Cheng Huang. With this thought in mind, he turned around and left.

“Rest well, master.”

“Rest well, master.”

Little Yuan’er followed Lu Zhou when he left while Mingshi Yi stayed to explain what had happened to Ye Tianxin. He began from the Bai people, Cheng Huang, their master’s investigation of the Fish Dragon Village incident, to him being afflicted by the witchcraft trap, and manning the cloud-splitting chariot… He recounted everything to her.

Ye Tianxin was, naturally, stunned by his words. After a moment, she said earnestly, “In any case, I’ll remember your favor, Fourth Senior Brother.”

“Don’t thank me… You should thank master…”

“I’ve committed a grave mistake. I don’t think master will let me return to the Evil Sky Pavilion that easily…” Ye Tianxin said.

“Don’t worry about it. It’s true that it might be difficult if this had happened in the past… but master’s behavior and temper have changed quite a bit lately. If you show some effort and sincerity, I don’t think it’ll be a problem for you to return to the Evil Sky Pavilion,” Mingshi Yin said, “Besides, we’re short of hands.” Whenever he thought about how a person of his status had to man the flying chariot’s helm, he felt slightly embarrassed.

“Fourth Senior Brother, are… a-are you serious?” Ye Tianxin asked tentatively.

“Of course. Humans are reciprocal in nature… Master has given me the Separation Hook and Scabbard. For that alone, I won’t say anything bad about him ever again! Don’t give me that look, I’m perfectly normal…” Mingshi Yin said.

When she heard Mingshi Yin’s words, Ye Tianxin sighed with relief.

After Lu Zhou left the south pavilion, he did not return to the Evil Sky Pavilion. He checked the list of missions on the system dashboard.

Apart from the missions of instructing his disciples, the mission of making Wei Zhuoyan admit his guilt was still ongoing. The fake Wei Zhuoyan admitting his guilt, naturally, did not count.

Lu Zhou gave it some thought as he made his way to the north pavilion.

Little Yuan’er asked curiously, “Master, what are you going to do in the north pavilion?”

Lu Zhou glanced at Little Yuan’er. He could tell there was something on her mind. He asked casually, “What’s the matter?”

“I’ve been cultivating the Supreme Purity Jade Slip, but I can’t help but feel that there’s something wrong with it.”

It was a good sign that Little Yuan’er was willing to ask for advice.

Lu Zhou nodded and said, “Let me interrogate Fan Xiuwen first.”

“Thank you, master.”

The two of them reached the north pavilion.

The charred Fan Xiuwen was lying on the floor. He seemed barely conscious. His breathing was extremely shallow as though he was going to die at any given time.

Lu Zhou shook his head and said, “Leng Luo… Do you want to witness Mo Li’s death so badly?”

Creak!

Fan Xiuwen could not move, but he managed to clench his fist. The sound of him cracking his knuckles rang in the air.

“I can help you kill Mo Li…” Lu Zhou said slowly.

Fan Xiuwen struggled to open his eyes that could still be seen on his blackened face.

Lu Zhou continued, “However, there’s a condition…”
