My Disciples Are All Villains
chapter-1404

This was not the first time Lu Zhou came to the Unknown Land. He had a basic understanding of this place. The environment was harsh, the energy here was chaotic, there were many fierce beasts, and there were also the deformed tribes. The living conditions here were poor for humans, but fierce beasts thrived in this place. There was no sunlight all year round, and it was cold. Ordinary people could not survive here while cultivators walked on thin ice here.

All this time, Lu Zhou believed the Great Void was somewhere in the core of the Unknown Land, hidden by an ancient formation. He did not expect that the Great Void was in the sky, hiding in plain sight.

Lu Zhou sighed. “It’s really in the sky.”

Chen Fu said, “That’s why I brought you to see the Pillars of Apocalypse. The pillars aren’t supporting the land, it’s actually supporting the Great Void.”

Chen Fu’s words were truly shocking.

The first time Lu Zhou entered the Pillar of Apocalypse, he had wondered if there was a top, and if there was, where did it lead to? The answer was clear now.

Due to the imbalance, the fog was even thicker than normal.

Lu Zhou asked, “Did the people from the Great Void come looking for you?”

Chen Fu placed his hands on his back and nodded before he said, “An envoy from the Great Void once wanted to bring me to the Great Void. However, what would happen to Great Han if I’d left? Great Han’s peace did not come easily. If I’d left, chaos would descend and rivers of blood would flow.”

Lu Zhou said, “You shouldn’t think too highly of yourself. There’s nothing in this world that you can’t let go of. If you’d left, the situation in Great Han would indeed change. However, peace would eventually come in a different form. You just don’t want any change.”

This was also the conclusion Lu Zhou came to after using the power of infinite deduction.

Chen Fu did not refute Lu Zhou’s words; he did not have the energy to do so. Moreover, Lu Zhou was right. He did not like change. It was not like he had never reflected on himself.

Lu Zhou continued to say, “Moreover, you still have your ten great disciples.”

Chen Fu chuckled and asked, “I remember you said you have disciples as well. Can you guarantee their absolute loyalty?”

Chen Fu returned the same question to Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou was rather relaxed when he heard this question. After all, he had experienced his disciples’ betrayal before. He replied, “No.”

“You’re very frank. I agree with you,” Chen Fu said, “They’re just afraid of my strength.”

These words reminded Lu Zhou of Ji Tiandao when he had just transmigrated. It seemed to be the same case as Chen Fu.

From a certain perspective, force and fear could indeed control people but going too far would render it effective. The backlash would begin once force and fear disappeared.

Compared to Ji Tiandao, Chen Fu was luckier. He had always stood at the top so no one could shake him. However, now, he faced the same problem as Ji Tiandao once did; their impending deaths.

History often repeated itself.

Lu Zhou looked at Chen Fu asked, “What do you plan to do?”

What would come, would come eventually.

Chen Fu laughed before he calmly said, “Maybe you’re right. It’s time for a change.”

Lu Zhou nodded. In fact, from the moment he met Chen Fu, he could not determine if Chen Fu was a friend or foe. The human heart was unpredictable, after all.

With Chen Fu’s status as a Saint, Lu Zhou might not have been able to see Chen Fu or even fight Chen Fu. On top of that, there were so many obstacles along the journey. Fortunately, everything turned out relatively well in the end.

From the looks of it, Chen Fu was not as cold and unapproachable as he had imagined.

Everyone had a bad trait. They did not like what was freely given but preferred something that took effort to obtain. It was somewhat like chasing women. The nice guy often did not get the woman they wanted while the scumbag would have no shortage of women.

Lu Zhou sighed and said, “Just like yours, my ten great disciples are all outstanding. At that time, they submitted to me due to my strength and waited until I was nearing the end of life. Some of them even coveted my weapons, cultivation methods, and treasures. At that time, the entire cultivation world joined forces to suppress me.”

These words were spoken very casually, but Chen Fu could empathize. Only a master could understand how tragic it was for disciples he had taught to betray him. Whether it was the righteous path or not, killing one’s master was truly a chilling deed.

Chen Fu asked curiously, “What happened after that?”

“I was lucky enough to break through the Eight Methods Connected stage and became the first person to sprout the ninth leaf in Great Yan. I was also the first to sprout the tenth leaf, enter the Thousand Realms Whirling stage, and become a Great Venerable Master,” Lu Zhou replied.

“So you did you severely punish the disciples who betrayed you?” Chen Fu did not care about Lu Zhou’s glorious past.

Lu Zhou shook his head and slowly said, “Masters should impart knowledge and resolve confusions. A master for a day is a father for life. Even a tiger wouldn’t devour its cubs, let alone humans. Ever since that incident, I’ve often reflected on why such a thing happened.”

“Why?”

“It’s true that using force can make people submit, but it can’t win people’s hearts,” Lu Zhou said in a faint voice.

Chen Fu remained silent as he looked at the roiling fog. After a while, he asked, “How’s your relationship with them now?”

“You’ll have to ask them,” Lu Zhou replied.

Chen Fu did not expect this answer. He could tell Lu Zhou cared about his disciples. Whether it was looking for the Resurrection Scroll, words, or actions, it all spoke of Lu Zhou’s care. Moreover, Lu Zhou did not blame his disciple when recounting the past. Instead, Lu Zhou reflected on himself.

There were no disciples who could not be taught, only masters who gave up on their disciples.

Chen Fu sighed. It was unfortunate there was not much time left. He dismissed the distracting thoughts in his head and said, “If possible, bring them to Autumn Dew Mountain so they can discuss the Dao with my disciples.”

Lu Zhou: “?”

“It’s good to let them see the world so they can learn to make up for their shortcomings. Moreover, I’m also curious about the disciples you taught,” Chen Fu said.

“...”

Lu Zhou replied, “Wait until I find the Resurrection Scroll.”

Chen Fu nodded. “Alright.”

Lu Zhou pointed at the fog and asked, “You said the Great Void is in the sky, right?”

Chen Fu nodded again.

Lu Zhou solemnly said, “Then I’ll personally ascend to the heavens to take a look!”

As soon as Lu Zhou’s voice fell, he did something that shocked Chen Fu. He flew up into the fog like a released arrow.

Chen Fu cried out, “Stop!”

Lu Zhou ignored him and flew past the fog.

The black fog blurred his vision, preventing him from having a good look at his surroundings. He chanted the mantra for the power of sight and the power of smell as he continued traveling through the fog. He turned around to look. It was as though he had fallen into an endless black sea. Even with the power of sight, his vision was only a little clearer.

Lu Zhou kept casting his grand technique as he moved.

He suddenly recalled the White Tower Council’s Ning Wanqing. In such an environment, what was the use of sight? Sometimes, other senses could be more useful than eyes. With that, he cut off the power of sight and continued flying.

Lu Zhou did not know how long or how high he had flown. He only gradually slowed down when he sensed the vitality energy was getting thinner. At this moment, he could not help but doubt Chen Fu’s words. How high up the fog was the Great Void hiding exactly? Was it higher than the heavens?

Swoosh!

All of a sudden, Lu Zhou heard a sudden gust of wind.. Following that, he saw a pair of flapping black wings before he saw a huge black creature that seemed as huge as the sky let out a low cry.
