My Disciples Are All Villains

Chapter 426 - Suspicions



Chapter 426: Suspicions

The people at the southern pavilion fell silent.

The younger disciples had less experience and merely found this fresh and exciting. They thought that anyone with a profound cultivation base could achieve this.

On the contrary, the three elders of the Old Age Pavilion looked at the growing plants that sprouted leaves and flowers in confusion and awe.

The Buddhist Merciful Ark of Salvation, the Bright Mirror, the Buddha’s Shine, or the Daoist Forgetful Maintenance could not have made a plant grow leaves and flowers this quickly. The plants were growing too fast. It was as though they were witnessing a blooming Queen of the Night cactus.

At this moment, everyone turned to look at the room where Yong Ning was staying in. They felt a gentle life force washed over them like a tidal wave. It was as refreshing as a spring breeze.

This was especially true for Si Wuya who had just recently stepped out of the Cave of Reflection. He had been exhausted, but now he felt his exhaustion being washed away by this lethargic unique power. He frowned, still in shock. He had suspected, on several occasions, that his master had already overcome the great limit. Whether it was from his master’s actions or the information he obtained after his return to the Evil Sky Pavilion, all of the signs showed that it was highly possible that his master had overcome the great limit. The truth was so close that he could almost touch it. Yet, nobody was bold enough to admit it. This was because admitting such things usually meant they were refuting the truth.

Si Wuya was in a dilemma. He was in a complicated cycle of self-doubt.

The spring breeze-like power subsided.

Everyone looked at the thriving plants in the pots.

The flowers faced the sun that showed off their vibrant colors.

Everyone had a fleeting feeling as though spring had arrived early.

“Did anyone see a faint blue lotus leaf floating out of the room before vanishing?” Pan Zhong rubbed his eyes as he tried to confirm what he saw as he asked with a trembling voice.

“I thought that I was seeing things. Now that you mention it, there really was a blue lotus leaf?” Zhou Jifeng chimed in.

“It felt really nice. I feel like I’ve just woken up from a dream. I’m flying, I’m flying, somebody pinch me! Oww… I didn’t mean literally!”

“Keep this up, and I’ll smash your mouths!” Little Yuan’er glared at them.

Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng fell silent immediately.

Everyone continued looking at the door that was tightly shut.

Everything inside the room returned to normal as well.

Lu Zhou’s Divine Court realm’s Primal Qi was completely depleted. However, he merely used a quarter of the Heavenly Writing’s extraordinary power.

He noticed that Yong Ning looked much better now. Her cheeks now had a healthy tinge of color to them.

“It worked?” Even if the talisman seal’s power was destroyed, she should not have recovered so soon. Lu Zhou looked at his own palms. He saw everything that happened just now. A huge, light blue lotus appeared. It enlarged before it vanished.

“The fourth Heavenly Writing power? Healing?”

Lu Zhou laid Yong Ning down and examined her pulse again. He confirmed that the talisman seal power inside her was gone. The corroding poison was purged as well.

She… was healed? Lu Zhou had trouble believing this. He stood up slowly. After making sure that there was no major problem, he walked out of the room with his hands on his back.

When the door opened, Lu Zhou saw the variety of expressions on everyone’s faces. He saw confusion and shock in their eyes.

‘Why do they look like this? Have they gone bonkers because of my mathematical questions?’ He entertained these thoughts in his mind but did not say them out loud. He crossed the threshold with his hands on his back as he said, “She’ll recover after resting.” Then, he walked out of the southern pavilion.

Something stirred inside of Si Wuya when he heard that. He ran into the room.

The others were still stunned.

The three elders of the Old Age Pavilion had been convinced that it was impossible for Yong Ning to be saved. Her life could only be prolonged, at most. What did the pavilion master mean when he said that she would recover after resting? Did it not mean she was healed and only needed to recuperate?

After Lu Zhou left, all of them swarmed into the room.

Si Wuya was the first to reach the bed. He ran like the wind and stood beside Yong Ning. When saw the healthy color of her complexion, joy welled up in his heart. He stooped to check her pulse. His fingers had just found her pulse when he remembered that his cultivation base was sealed, and he could not examine her.

“Allow me.” Pan Litian tossed his Wine Gourd Bottle to Pan Zhong and walked over. He rolled up his sleeves and examined her Qi. His Primal Qi entered Yong Ning.

The others looked at Pan Litian as they waited for the results of his examination.

Pan Litian’s expression gradually changed to one of confusion. He frowned before his eyes suddenly widened. Awe and shock brimmed in his eyes. ‘How? Impossible!’

“Old Pan, how’s she?” Pan Zhong walked up to him and asked.

“Impossible… impossible… how can this be?” Pan Litian mumbled incessantly.

Everyone shook their heads. What did he mean by it was not possible?

Leng Luo stepped forward. He raised his palm and extended his Qi as well. His Primal Qi descended. His movements were much more fluid than Pan Litian. However, halfway through his examination, it could be seen he was clearly slower. Yet, with the silver mask on his face, nobody could see his expression. He took a step backward and hoarsely said, “That’s strange.”

Hua Wudao could no longer restrain himself. He examined her as well.

There was no doubting the standing of the three elders in the Evil Sky Pavilion. Their words bore weight.

The others looked at the three elders and waited for an answer.

“Elders, how is she?”

Just when Hua Wudao was about to reply, Pan Litian rose to his feet and stretched before he said, “Well… Something came up…” He hurried out of the room, covering 300 feet in a single stride. He vanished in just a blink of an eye.

The others were baffled. Was this how an elder should behave? How shameless!

Leng Luo shook his head. He placed his hands on his back and walked out of the room. He had always been eccentric and seldom associated himself with the group.

The others did not dare stop him. They merely looked as Leng Luo walked out of the room without a word. He soon vanished as well.

They could only turn to look at Hua Wudao. Learning from their collective mistake, they stood in a row and blocked the way just when Hua Wudao was turning to leave.

“Elder Hua, how’s she?”

Hua Wudao coughed a few times. He had an unnatural expression on his wizened face as he said, “She’s alright now.”

Upon hearing this, Si Wuya felt a sense of relief coursing through his body.

“Elder Hua, didn’t you say it’s impossible to save her?” Zhu Honggong asked.

“Did I?”

“Didn’t you?”

“I don’t think so.” Hua Wudao emboldened himself and walked out of the room.

This time, nobody stopped him.

After the three elders have left, the others rolled their eyes.

“Told you master can do it!” Little Yuan’er said.

Zhao Yue nodded and said, “That’s enough. Let’s give her some peace and quiet.”

The others left the room.

Meanwhile.

Lu Zhou did not return to the eastern pavilion. He went into the forest behind the mountain. He found a withered tree and remembered his latest experience. He raised his palm…

The scripts of the Heavenly Writing’s power surfaced in his mind again.

Visiting many places without having to move, reaping many benefits as a result.

A miniature Blue Lotus emerged from his palm and glowed with faint blue light.

Lu Zhou deliberately suppressed the burst of extraordinary power. He made it surge out slowly before he pushed his palm forward.

A Blue Lotus shot out from his palm and landed on the withered tree. Then, the withered tree visibly came to life. It sprouted leaves and grew. Perhaps, it was due to him only using a small amount of extraordinary power, the tree had only grown slightly before stopping.

This confirmed Lu Zhou’s thoughts.
