My Disciples Are All Villains
chapter-1711

Ming Xin did not put much pressure on the trio. With Zui Can's death, it was reasonable that they were worried. After giving them their mission, he disappeared.

The trio could only sigh and leave the main hall. They did not dare to question or doubt Ming Xin.

100,000 years had passed; what would it be like over the next 100,000 years? No one knew what the future would be like or how heaven and earth would change.

…

The next morning.

A pillar of blue light shot out of the golden lotus domain's Evil Sky Pavilion to the horizon.

Boom!

The impact shook almost the entire Great Yan.

The cultivation world in Great Yan had long called the Evil Sky Pavilion the Saint Sky Pavilion. Golden Court Mountain had long been regarded as the best cultivation ground in Great Yan.

The pillar of light naturally stirred up a commotion.

Many cultivators passers-by near Golden Court Mountain approached to have a look. They hovered in the air and looked at the pillar of light in awe.

The pillar of light finally dissipated after 15 minutes.

"As expected of Great Yan's Saint Sky Pavilion! We can see a miracle here!"

The young cultivators were all excited.

"Uncle, I've heard many legends and stories about the Saint Sky Pavilion since I was young. I heard that the Pavilion Master of the Saint Sky Pavilion is invincible, and his ten disciples are also very amazing! Are they still around?"

An elder turned around and said, "Of course, they're still around. It's said that they went to a place called the Great Void where experts and fierce beasts gather."

"Wow! It'd be great if I could meet them! I really want to know what they look like!"

The elder continued to say, "Well, you have to work hard if you want to see them. The Great Void isn't a place where everyone can enter."

"Alright! We'll definitely work hard and use the Pavilion Master as our example!"

Suddenly…

Boom!

Another pillar of blue light shot out from the Evil Sky Pavilion's eastern pavilion. When it pierce through the clouds toward the horizon, it created powerful ripples in the air.

All the cultivators were astonished.

"What's that?"

"Strange…"

"Let's go and take a look."

It was not just cultivators nearby. Cultivators from different directions were all making their way to Golden Court Mountain.

Boom!

The third pillar of light shot into the sky. This time, the shockwave was extremely fierce, causing the wind to blow violently.

"Be careful!"

"Stop! Don't go any closer!"

Most cultivators stopped advancing. Even those who did not stop were forced to stop by the surging and violent wind.

…

At the same time, Zhu Honggong, Li Yunzheng, and Jiang Aijian arrived outside of the eastern pavilion. They looked at the beam of light in confusion.

Jiang Aijian said, "Senior Ji is really good at creating commotions. Fortunately, we're in the Evil Sky Pavilion. No one would be able to cover for him if we were in the Great Void."

Li Yunzheng shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily true. Grandmaster's cultivation should have broken through again. The balance in the nine domains will be affected for sure, and that might attract the Great Void's attention. On the contrary, the Great Void and Unknown Land are so vast that we just might be able to avoid detection."

"Did your master teach you to contradict others all the time?" Jiang Aijian asked.

Li Yunzheng smiled sheepishly and said, "I apologize, Uncle Jiang."

"Alright, alright. Call me Uncle Jiang again," Jiang Aijian said. He rather enjoyed being addressed as Uncle.

"Say that again?"

Jiang Aijian did not expect that he not only did not hear Li Yunzheng calling him 'uncle', but he heard a deep and hoarse voice saying, 'Say that again?'. He shivered before he turned around. He watched as the look in Li Yunzheng's eyes changed. Apart from that, Li Yunzheng's aura and temperament changed as well as he straightened his back.

"Uh… I was just joking…" Jiang Aijian said awkwardly. Then, he straightened his back and asked seriously, "Since we're in the Evil Sky Pavilion, I'm going to leave for a few days. What do you think?"

"If you want to leave, then leave. What does it have to do with me?"

Ling Guang flashed and appeared at the top of the archway outside of the eastern pavilion. He placed his hands on his back as he looked at the pillar of light.

Jiang Aijian: "..."

Zhu Honggong patted his chest and said, "I'm really a f*cking genius! Fortunately, I didn't joke too much with him!"

"..."

Zhu Honggong said, "Don't think too much about it. I have more experience, after all. This is to be expected since you're inexperienced."

Jiang Aijian's voice and tone seemed to change in an instant as he said sternly, "Eighth Junior Brother, say that again?"

Zhu Honggong was briefly stunned, and he instinctively took two steps back. When he regained his senses, he said, "You dare to play tricks on me? Take this punch from me!"

Zhu Honggong rushed over and began to exchange blows with Jiang Aijian.

Jiang Aijian said, "It was just a joke. Why are you petty? It seems like you're still very afraid of Si Wuya."

"It's none of your business!"

The duo fought fiercely for a long time, but there was no victor.

Suddenly, the southern horizon began to burn. It was a magnificent scene.

The duo stopped fighting and looked at the horizon, puzzled.

After a moment, Ling Guang asked, "Fire Phoenix?"

Upon hearing this, realization dawned on Zhu Honggong. He said, ecstatic, "The Fire Phoenix is here?!"

Zhu Honggong had expected that it would take some time before the Fire Phoenix arrived. He did not expect it to be so fast.

When the duo flew closer to the horizon, Ling Guang appeared in front of them.

As expected, they saw the Fire Phoenix flapping its wings, which spanned miles, flying over. It left true fire burning in its wake as it flew.

Many cultivators quickly fled. They were all shocked by the Fire Phoenix's sudden appearance.

"How strange. Why are there so many miraculous phenomena in Saint Sky Pavilion today? Why did such a powerful divine beast appear here?"

Divine beasts were not something ordinary cultivators could compare to, let alone the Immortal Bird, the Fire Phoenix.

Ling Guang looked at the Fire Phoenix with his profound eyes and said, "It seems like it's now a divine lord."

"Divine lord?! So it's now comparable to a Saint slayer?" Jiang Aijian exclaimed.

"The Immortal Bird and my Fire Deity clan have a long history. They were originally one and the same before they split into different branches. One branch is the Vermilion Bird clan, which is also my Fire Deity clan, and the other is the Phoenix clan. They don't just control fire, but they control the law of life and death. They can rise from the ashes," Ling Guang said.

Jiang Aijian asked in confusion, "Isn't that the same for you?"

"No," Ling Guang shook his head and said, "If that's the case, how could I have died so easily? The Fire Deity clan's life is tenacious. Although our bloodline gives us a chance to come back to life, the conditions are very harsh. There are other clans with this ability as well. However, the Fire Phoenix is different. Even if they were truly killed, as long as they had enough time, they will be reborn for sure. There are no conditions."

Zhu Honggong and Jiang Aijian were surprised by these words.

The Fire Phoenix was not called the Immortal Bird for no reason.

Zhu Honggong was also reminded of his Eldest Senior Brother, Yu Zhenghai. When Yu Zhenghai died, he had to be buried and irrigated before he could come back to life.

There were all kinds of strange things in the world. Perhaps, they all had something to do with the power in the abyss.

At this time, a large number of cultivators appeared south of Golden Court Mountain. They manifested their avatars in front of them.

"Beast! This is the Saint Sky Pavilion! It's not a place for you to act rampantly! Leave immediately!" a cultivator said. His voice was like thunder, resounding in the sky.

Jiang Aijian laughed. "Someone's protecting Golden Court Mountain."

"Times have changed… The current Evil Sky Pavilion is no longer the Evil Sky Pavilion of the past. They even changed the name…" Zhu Honggong said.

As far as the eyes could see, thousands of avatars lined the sky. There were quite a number of Eleven-leaf cultivators as well. They were hoping to stop the Fire Phoenix from advancing; they were all here to protect Golden Court Mountain.

"Everyone says the golden lotus domain has undergone great changes. It seems like it's true…"

Swoosh!

The Fire Phoenix stopped in the air and silently parted its beaks, spewing out a stream of flames.

"Get out of the way!"

The cultivators were forced to flee in all directions.

The Fire Phoenix flapped its wings, stirring up a violent wind, and began to fly again.

The fierce wind raged, blowing away Thousand Realms Whirling cultivators.

The Fire Phoenix seemed to have deliberately held back from killing them. At this moment, it said, "Lowly humans, get out of the way. Don't force me to start a massacre."

Someone said, "You dare to cause trouble in the Sky Saint Pavilion! Are you seeking death?"

The Fire Phoenix looked at the tiny but courageous cultivators and said, "If it weren't for the pavilion, you would have all been reduced to ashes long ago."

"..."

Although the cultivators really wanted to protect the dignity and sanctity of the Evil Sky Pavilion, they knew they were too weak to do anything.

At this moment, Ling Guang appeared in front of the cultivators and said, "All of you, leave."

"Who is he?"

"I don't know."

Everyone was still puzzled when Ling Guang's body burst into flames. The flames were true fire just like the Fire Phoenix.

The cultivators were confused and shocked by this sudden turn of events. It was unheard of for humans to burst into true fire.

Upon seeing Ling Guang's fire, the Fire Phoenix extinguished its fire, revealing its dazzling feathers. It looked at Ling Guang curiously. "Ling Guang, the Fire Deity?"

Ling Guang extinguished its flames as well and asked, "You still recognized me?"

"You… Why are you here?"

"Why can't I be here?"

"What's your purpose?"

"What purpose can I have?"

"..."

Zhu Honggong and Jiang Aijian: "..."

Ling Guang shook his head and said, "Forget it. I won't bother with you. The Pavilion Master of the Evil Sky Pavilion needs your blood essence to refine his disciple's Eight Extraordinary Meridians and Dantian's sea of Qi."

The Fire Phoenix said, "I knew it! That old thing wants something from me!"

Zhu Honggong flew over at this moment and said, "Just tell me if you're going to give it or not. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"

The noble Fire Phoenix had never been spoken to in such a manner by a human before. It burned with anger immediately and said, "What can you do if I don't give it to you?"

Swoosh!

Flames soared into the sky immediately.

Zhu Honggong did not retreat. His golden halo appeared with 15 leaves spinning around it.

When the other cultivators saw the golden halo, they were shocked.

"15-leaf cultivator?!"

"Huh?! 15 leaves? The Saint Sky Pavilion really didn't lie to us! Severing the lotus can also make us powerful! A fifteen-leaf avatar can also stand against a fierce beast like that?!"

The Fire Phoenix looked at Zhu Honggong disdainfully, "Are you seeking death?"

Zhu Honggong scoffed coldly and said, "You better think carefully. My master is just behind you."

Upon hearing this, the Fire Phoenix glanced in the direction of the eastern pavilion in the Evil Sky Pavilion and the pillar of light in the sky that left ripples in its wake. With this, it did not dare to act rashly. Hence, it said, "Tell him to come out."

Jiang Aijian said, "You have to wait for a while. You're really impulsive, and you have no conscience. Senior Ji raised the Little Fire Phoenix for you for so many years, and it's much stronger than before. After being nourished by the Great Void energy, its future is limitless. Giving us a bit of your blood essence is just like asking a chicken for a feather…"

"You're insulting me?" The Fire Phoenix's temper flared up again. It hated being compared to chickens the most. They were not the same species at all, and they were in a completely different league.

"A fierce beast is a fierce beast, after all. You don't understand human language at all. That was just a metaphor, not an insult. You're already a divine lord. Can you act nobler?" Jiang Aijian said.

At this time, Ling Guang soared higher into the sky. Flames surged around him immediately as he spread his arms.

Swoosh!

Ling Guang's wings, which spanned thousands of feet, covered the sky immediately.

The cultivators in the surroundings were dumbfounded.

'These… What are all these things I'm seeing today?!'
