My Disciples Are All Villains
chapter-1608

After flying for 100 miles, they saw a mountain pass.

“This is the entrance that leads to the true fire,” Nan Li said.

Xuanyi asked, puzzled, “It’s underground?”

“The true fire has to be kept underground to suppress its power. Otherwise, it’ll definitely cause a disaster,” Lu Zhou said.

“Listening to Pavilion Master Lu’s words is better than 10 years of reading,” Xuanyi said, filled with praise.

“Huh?” Nan Li looked at Xuanyi in confusion. ‘What kind of flattery is this?’

Xuanyi seemed to realize his words were too flattering so he quickly cleared his throat and said solemnly, “Pavilion Master Lu, you’re really well-read; I can’t compare. Let’s move on.”

Xuanyi said the words ‘let’s move on’ very casually.

Lu Zhou could not be bothered with these things. He looked at the mountain pass and said, “Lead the way.”

Nan Li led the group underground.

After passing through a narrow underground tunnel, everyone felt the temperature rising higher and higher. Fortunately, their cultivation was very high so it did not affect them at all.

After traveling for about half a mile, they felt the pressure rise. The air seemed to distort due to the high temperature. A few cultivators from Xuanyi Palace could not continue forward so they only stayed and waited there.

After another half a mile or so, they could feel another spike in the temperature.

Buzz!

Nan Li activated his protective energy. “It’s here.”

Lu Zhou and Xuanyi activated their protective energies as well to fend off the heat.

Swoosh!

At this time, a green ball of flames flew over. It seemed out of place in this place that burned red.

“Southern true fire,” Nan Li said before he flashed and dodged the attack from the ball of green flames.

Lu Zhou and Xuanyi flew to the sides as the ball of flames flew between them. The high temperature from the southern true fire caused the duo’s protective energies to sizzle. They were both taken aback by this.

Xuanyi flew up for about 300 feet up in the air and said, “Pavilion Master Lu, I’ll leave this to you.”

‘In any case, I don’t want this item, and it’s likely on teacher alone can deal with it. It’s best for me to get out of the way first.’

Nan Li did not expect Xuanyi to act so decisively. Then, he also followed suit. Now was not the time to care about dignity or reputation; self-preservation was the most important. He flew to Xuanyi’s side and looked down.

The southern true fire did not fly up and only circled the area below. It circled Lu Zhou so swiftly that it looked as though a circle of flames had formed around Lu Zhou.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Lu Zhou stared at the southern true fire intently.

As though it finally sensed Lu Zhou’s location, the southern true fire suddenly shot toward Lu Zhou.

“Watch out!” Nan Li cried out.

Lu Zhou raised his hand and used Unnamed in the form of a shield to defend against the attack.

Boom!

Nan Li exclaimed in shock, “Void grade?! Pavilion Master Lu actually owns a void-grade weapon?”

“That’s only natural,” Xuanyi replied in a matter-of-course tone.

“???”

‘How’s this only natural when even you, a great divine king, only possess infinite-grade weapons???’

Most supreme beings have sacred relics and infinite-grade items and did not lack them. It was not that they did not want void-grade items, but it was extremely difficult to upgrade them to that grade. Void-grade items could freely change their forms, with their initial forms being their true forms.

For example, if the Overlord Spear was upgraded to the void-grade, its true form was naturally spear. The other forms are called ‘derivative forms’. Items and weapons in their true forms are ten times more powerful than their derivative forms.

Void-grade items were not only powerful, but when used correctly, they could even withstand a part of the power of the laws. They also possessed spirituality.

How could Nan Li not be surprised?

Buzz!

As expected of the southern true fire, that was a divine fire. It even dented Unnamed. In fact, it looked as though Unnamed was on the verge of melting.

Lu Zhou put away Unnamed as his robe rustled.

Upon seeing this, Nan Li frowned and said, “The robe isn’t simple. It seems to be…”

Xuanyi interjected with a straight face, “You must have seen wrongly.”

“Seen wrongly? No, no, no. Look carefully, Divine King Xuanyi. When the divine fire approached, the robe clearly released a surge of energy that blocked the heat. Very few experts and fierce beasts in the world can easily block the heat of the southern true fire. This robe looks like it’s weaved from… the tendons of a Rain Dragon,” Nan Li said, filled with convictions.

Again, without changing expressions, Xuanyi said, “How can it be? Dragon tendons are limited. How can they be weaved into a robe? This robe should be a sacred relic. Otherwise, Pavilion Master Lu would’ve been able to fend off the southern true fire.”

Nan Li nodded and sighed. “You’re right. I haven’t been sleeping well lately so my eyes are blurry. I apologize.”

Xuanyi said, “It’s fine. This southern true fire has been tormenting you for a long time. When Pavilion Master Lu takes it away, you’ll be able to sleep soundly. From now on, there’ll be four seasons in Southern Split Moutain. Isn’t it wonderful to enjoy flowers and spring and the snow in winter?”

“After hearing Great Divine King Xuanyi’s words, my heart feels more at ease,” Nan Li said. However, a second later, he shook his head; he had almost been influenced by Xuanyi. He said, “That’s not right. I’m afraid Pavilion Master Lu won’t be able to bring the southern true fire away.”

“How do you know?”

“This divine fire was born from eight desolate lands in six directions. It has been nourished by heaven and earth. It’s truly fearsome. It should be underground. If it’s brought outside, it will only cause a huge disaster. All that aside, don’t tell Pavilion Master Lu intends to take it with his bare hands? Where does he plan to keep it?” Nan Li said as he shook his head.

At this moment, Lu Zhou pushed his hand down.

A brown bag flashing with electric arcs shot and grew rapidly.

Swoosh!

The Vast Sky Bag flew out, easily capturing the southern true fire.

Lu Zhou flew over and grabbed the Vast Sky Bag. Then, it began to shrink in his hand immediately after the pattern on it lit up briefly.

Nan Li: “???”

Xuanyi: “???”

Lu Zhou casually put the Vast Sky Bag away before he flew to the duo and said, “We can leave now.”

Even the mentally-prepared Xuanyi was shocked by this move. For a moment, he was frozen. No one knew what he was thinking.

Nan Li’s mouth was agape. He could not speak for a long time.

Looking at the stunned duo, Lu Zhou flew up first.

It was at this time that Nan Li regained his senses. He asked, “Was I seeing things?”

“No,” Xuanyi replied.

“It’s a sacred relic!” Nan Li said.

“A sacred relic that can deal with a divine fire?” Xuanyi asked skeptically.

“This… I don’t think so.”

Nan Li felt as though he had been slapped in the face when he recalled his earlier words. Lu Zhou had proven him wrong with his actions. He felt like his worldview had been refreshed.

Xuanyi said, “Let’s go.”

Nan Li nodded and flew away.

…

When they left the mountain pass, the temperature began to drop. Soon enough, clouds began to gather. Cold breeze blew over from all directions. As the temperature continued to drop, the wind grew stronger and stronger. The sudden and drastic change in temperature caused a chain of reactions.

The platforms in the air swayed slightly as Primal Qi began to converge.

“This is bad! The Formations on the platform are about to be destroyed!” Nan Li exclaimed. Then, he turned around and bowed to Lu Zhou as he said, “Pavilion Master, please return the divine fire to Southern Split Mountain.”
