The blue lotus was now in full bloom.

Eunuchs, palace maids, royal guards, cultivators; everyone had gathered outside of the Preservation Hall.

Similarly, the people from the Evil Sky Pavilion also appeared near the Preservation Hall.

Hua Wudao looked at the surroundings of the hall. He looked at the place that had once been barren now teeming with life as he said in awe, “Heavens, the vitality energy came so suddenly… Look at how the plants are flourishing!”

Zuo Yushu said, “This is the first time elder brother has come up with such a trick.”

Pan Litian drank a little wine and said, “It’s not the first or second time the Pavilion Master has come up with a new trick. Just get used to it.”

Leng Luo deeply agreed but remained silent.

After two hours, the vitality energy gradually dissipated.

Xiao Yunhe had also absorbed all the vitality energy he could and used it to repair his Birth Palace. He exhaled to calm down before he looked at his Birth Palace.

Two distinct zones had been restored, and the lines of his Birth Charts could vaguely be seen. This meant that he had regained at least two Birth Charts.

Lu Zhou and Si Wuya did not know how Xiao Yunhe felt at the moment. However, they could see his eyes were so bright that it seemed as though they were burning with flames. Then, they saw his arms were trembling, and he was also clenching and unclenching his hands. Following that, his eyes returned to normal before he laughed twice. However, his laughter sounded strange; it was as though he was choking back his tears. When they looked at his face, they saw his eyes had reddened.

Xiao Yunhe laughed again and again as he said repeatedly, “It worked!”

After Xiao Yunhe repeated those words more than ten times, he finally regained his composure. He suppressed his excitement before he rose to his feet and bowed deeply at Lu Zhou. “I’m sorry I lost my composure.”

“It’s understandable. Losing a life matrix is like losing a life. It’s normal for you to be happy. However, your two Birth Charts still need time to stabilize. Therefore, your strength at this moment isn’t that of a 9 Chart cultivator,” Lu Zhou said.

“Thank you for your reminder, Brother Lu.” Xiao Yunhe bowed again. “Brother Lu, please don’t hesitate to look for me if you need something from me in the future.”

Lu Zhou thought about it for a moment before he turned to look at Si Wuya and asked, “What do you say? Tower Master Xiao is the former Tower Master of the Black Tower Council.”

Si Wuya said, “Tower Master Xiao, I have a request.”

“Even if it’s ten requests, it’s not a problem.”

“Do you have the talismans for runic passages?” Si Wuya asked.

“…” Xiao Yunhe said, “This is truly a difficult request. Fortunately, it’s me you’re talking to. Only a rune master can create a runic passage. However, I can get you some blueprints.”

“Thank you,” Si Wuya said.

Xiao Yunhe turned to look at Lu Zhou and said, “Brother Lu, I still have something that I don’t know if I should say.”

“Go ahead.”

“Brother Lu’s battle with the two First Elders of the Black Tower Council and the Black Tower Council is truly breathtaking. After the battle, the Black Tower Council and the White Tower Council will no longer dare to look down on Brother Lu and would probably steer clear of you in the future if it were possible. However, I think Brother Lu seems to have forgotten about the First Elders’ weapons…”

“Weapons?” Lu Zhou had indeed forgotten about them.

King Chen of Wu had the Hollow Halberd, and Ye Liuyun had his dagger. Then, what were Xu Chen and Shi Youran’s weapons? Lu Zhou’s strength was far superior to theirs so he did not pay attention at all. He had been unleashing his ultimate moves all the time; where would he have the time to care about other things?

Xiao Yunhe said awkwardly, “Of course it’s only natural that Brother Lu doesn’t care about those things. After all, Brother Lu has much more precious treasures…”

‘… I care very much about those things!’

“Someone picked up their weapons?” Lu Zhou asked.

“Generally, cultivators will be extra careful to protect items above the flood grade. When they’re defeated, they’ll throw them into a hidden corner so their own people would be able to retrieve them.

“…” Lu Zhou had been careless. At the same time, he also exposed his lack of experience during the battle between the Thousand Realms Whirling experts.

“It’s getting late. I should take my leave. Brother Lu, we’ll meet again,” Xiao Yunhe said.

“I’ll give you a piece of advice: do everything within your means.”

Xiao Yunhe nodded.

At this moment, Wu Chao and a few guards entered the hall.

As soon as Wu Chao appeared, Lu Zhou noticed that Wu Chao was slightly injured. For someone to be able to injure a Thousand Realms Whirling expert like Wu Chao, Wu Chao must have encountered a serious problem.

Wu Chao kneeled on one knee and said, “I have completed His Majesty’s mission and expelled the people from the Dark and Light Alliance.”

Lu Zhou asked, puzzled, “The Dark and Light Alliance?”

“The people from the Dark and Light Appearance appeared in Nanbei Circuit. When I arrived, they were attacking the local cultivators. Fortunately, there was only one Thousand Realms Whirling cultivator; the others were in the Nascent Divinity Tribulation Realm.”

Xiao Yunhe sighed. “The Dark and Light Alliance is really ambitious. I’m afraid King Chen of Wu and the matter with Ye Liuyun has something to do with this. The Dark and Light Alliance are probably venting their anger on innocent people because of what happened.”

Lu Zhou said, “Aren’t the Dark and Light Alliance afraid of being condemned by the people of the world?”

“Some people decided to travel down the dark path and don’t care about what the secular world thinks. Roughly 1,500 years ago, something like that happened in the Dark and Light Alliance as well. At that time, a high-ranking member of the Dark and Light Alliance was killed during a mission. As a result, the Dark and Light Alliance sent people to slaughter over 10,000 people just to show their might. At that time, many forces in the black lotus domain joined forces to denounce the Dark and Light Alliance. However, the conflict between the forces was too deep so they only cursed at the Dark and Light Alliance and did not do much.”

This reminded Lu Zhou of the appeasement policy during the second world war on earth. With these people, the more indulgent one was, the more arrogant they would become. After a moment, he said, “I’ll deal with the Dark and Light Alliance.”

Xiao Yunhe and Wu Chao cupped their fists together and left the Preservation Hall.

After the duo left, Si Wuya asked, “Master, Xiao Yunhe is the former Tower Master of the Black Tower Council and is talented; why didn’t you ask him to join the Evil Sky Pavilion?”

“He has too many burdens, and the hatred in his heart is too great. Don’t be deceived by his appearance. Such a person isn’t suitable to stay in the Evil Sky Pavilion for the time being,” Lu Zhou said, “In any case, he’s very smart. Therefore, he won’t be stupid enough to oppose me.”

“However, with his current cultivation base, he’s still no match for the current Tower Master of the Black Tower Council.” Si Wuya was perplexed; if he were Xiao Yunhe, he would have joined the Evil Sky Pavilion.

“There’s no way he would go and look for Xia Zhengrong. He possesses a hexagonal weapon that’s called the Six Edges; it’s not weaker than a flood-grade weapon, but it’s only at the desolate grade now. Among the fire spirit stones I gave you, six came from him,” Lu Zhou said.

“…” Si Wuya said awkwardly, “No wonder he looked so strange when you gave the fire spirit stones to me. It seems like they were meant to upgrade his weapon.”

Nevertheless, since Lu Zhou managed to recover two of Xiao Yunhe’s Birth Charts, Xiao Yunhe was definitely firmly standing on Lu Zhou’s side. He would not do anything to jeopardize his relationship with Lu Zhou.

After Si Wuya left, Lu Zhou entered his meditative state again to recover his supreme mystic power.

In the Evil Sky Pavilion’s Golden Court Mountain in the golden lotus domain.

Zhao Yue tossed a life heart to Ye Tianxin and said, “Sixth Junior Sister, I don’t have a lotus so you should have this life heart.”

“This is yours. I can’t accept it.”

“Take it. You’re protecting the golden lotus domain now; it’s important to raise your cultivation base.”

“Alright. Thank you, Fifth Senior Sister.” Ye Tianxin put away the heart of the life matrix. Then, she nimbly leaped onto Cheng Huang’s back and said, “There seems to be some movement in Liang Province again. Cheng Huang and I will go and have a look.”

“Alright. Be careful.”

Ye Tianxin rode on Cheng Huang and sped west.

Cheng Huang’s speed was astonishing. With each leap, it passed through seas of cloud like the wind.

After an hour, Cheng Huang landed next to a huge lake before it let out a low groan.

“What’s wrong?” Ye Tianxin patted Cheng Huang’s back.

Cheng Huang shook its head.

“Is someone there?”

Cheng Huang nodded.

“Is there danger?”

Cheng Huang nodded again.

Ye Tianxin thought for a moment and said, “Are you afraid?”

Cheng Huang hesitated. It nodded first before it changed its mind and shook its head.

Ye Tianxin jumped down gracefully from its back and landed on the clear surface of the snake. Her robes that were as white as snow and her hair which was as white as frost fluttered in the air as she surveyed her surroundings. If she sensed danger, she would leave with Cheng Huang immediately.

At this moment, a crisp and gentle voice rang from the shore. “What’s your name?”

Ye Tianxin spun around, shocked, as she looked at the source of the voice.

Cheng Huang grunted and retreated, clearly hostile.

Ye Tianxin trusted Cheng Huang unconditionally, therefore, she leaped onto its back before she looked at the speaker again.

She saw an elegant woman with an extraordinary bearing. Her waist and body were slender, and her facial features were exquisite. Her smile made people feel as though they were bathing in the spring breeze. Most importantly, she had eye-catching hair that was as blue as the sky.

At this moment, the elegant woman asked again, “What’s your name?”
