My Disciples Are All Villains
chapter-198

Little Yuan’er carried the box in a respectful manner. She opened it gently and took a look. She said, “Master... It was Second Senior Brother who gave this to me. It’s a set of clothes.”

Lu Zhou’s eyes fell on the clothes that were glowing faintly. ‘She won’t steal a set of clothing, right?’ After a while, he said, “Bring it here.”

Little Yuan’er obediently placed the embroidered box by his side and removed the lid.

Ci Yuan and Madam Zhang looked at the clothes inside the embroidered box at the same time. They were mere mortals. Although they had a few friends from the cultivation world, they did not recognize what this feather raiment was.

Lu Zhou recognized it. However, his expression remained calm as he said softly, “Cloud Feather Raiment.”

“Cloud Feather Raiment?”

It was said that the Cloud Feather Raiment was completed over several centuries by the hands of three generations of master tailors. The procurement of the materials, Formation veins, decorations, and the drafts of the design alone took decades. All of the materials came from Misty Forest. The Cloud Feather Raiment could negate most energy damages. It was the same kind of treasure as the zen tunic. In terms of level, it might be even higher than the zen tunic.

Lu Zhou did not expect Yu Shangrong to be this generous. He muttered to himself for a moment and said, “Take it.” He thought to himself, ‘It’s a waste to throw such a treasure away.’

Little Yuan’er scratched her head. “I’m allowed to keep it?”

Lu Zhou nodded lightly.

Little Yuan’er gave an “Oh” before she stowed the Cloud Feather Raiment away.

Lu Zhou looked at the Ci couple and said, “If there’s nothing else, you’re dismissed.”

From their brief conversation before this, Lu Zhou learned that Little Yuan’er had been afflicted by a terrible disease when she was young. Ci Yuan looked for a doctor that could treat his daughter high and low. An elite diagnosed Little Yuan’er and told them her sea of Qi was blocked. Ci Yuan had remembered that ever since she joined the Evil Sky Pavilion. When he finally obtained a sable magnolia, he sent Ci An to the Evil Sky Pavilion to request an audience.

However, what puzzled Lu Zhou was... with Ci Yuan’s abilities and identity, he should not have been capable of obtaining a sable magnolia.

After a brief moment of muttering to himself, Lu Zhou stopped dwelling on the matter.

He did not have to explain much about Little Yuan’er’s problem with her sea of Qi to Ci Yuan too much. The sable magnolia was a rare treasure, after all. It would only bring the Ci family trouble if it were left here.

....

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng arrived at the Ci Mansion in the afternoon. Their lodgings were prepared there as well.

...

Night fell.

The moon was bright while the stars were few and far in between.

Movements could be heard outside of Ci Mansion. The sound seemed to have come from the streets.

“The rebel army!” Someone shouted.

Lu Zhou had not gone to bed yet. He was sitting cross-legged, trying to stabilize his cultivation base. Perhaps, it was due to the Heavenly Writing’s extraordinary power, his mental state was in top condition.

He opened his eyes and saw lights flashing outside the door.

“Master, the rebel army is on the streets. Should I go and take care of them?” Mingshi Yin’s voice rang from outside.

Lu Zhou replied, “There’s no need to bother with anything outside of Ci Mansion.”

“Yes, master.”

Lu Zhou closed his eyes again and circulated his Primal Qi.

The sound of hooves clopping down the streets could be heard moving across the streets of Anyang.

It was Wei Zhuoyan’s duty to quell the disturbance. The Evil Sky Pavilion had no responsibility to do that.

Shortly after, the sounds of killing and fighting rang from Anyang City.

People or objects flying in the skies could be heard as well.

A brief moment later, everything was quiet again.

...

Early the next morning.

Dawn was just breaking when Lu Zhou opened his eyes slowly. He shook his head lightly.

The improvement of his cultivation base was excruciatingly slow via cultivation... However, it was better than nothing. He preferred this over his state when he had just transmigrated where he could not cultivate at all.

He had many cultivation methods in his mind. His experience and insight regarding cultivation were much greater than most cultivators. However, it did not seem to be overly helpful in regard to improving his strength. The most use he had for them was to discipline his disciples with it.

...

Meanwhile, in the sky north of Anyang City.

A flying chariot was headed toward the city at a uniform speed.

The huge flying chariot was a sight to behold.

Dozens of cultivators formed a Formation around the flying chariot.

Although the citizens of Anyang were no strangers to flying chariots, it was their first time seeing such a majestic one.

This flying chariot was well-known.

The citizens seemed to have forgotten about the disturbance last night as they looked at the sky.

The flying chariot kept moving forward until it stopped above Anyang City.

At the same time, smoke signals indicating the presence of hostile forces rose from Anyang City.

The thick clouds of smoke floated toward the horizons...

From the flying chariot, throngs of masked cultivators leaped down and dove at the soldiers of Anyang City!

“The rebel army!”

“The rebel army!”

The citizens immediately realized what this was. They scurried back to their respective homes.

Chaos had descended upon Anyang City.

However, the cultivators’ targets were not the citizens of Anyang City. Their targets were the soldiers on top of the city walls.

Sounds of killings and fighting could be heard throughout the city.

The northern gate was forced open by the masked cultivators, and thousands of mounted soldiers flooded into the city.

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng leaped onto the rooftop and looked from afar.

In the southern part of the city, troops of soldiers and cultivators swarmed against the masked cultivators.

Both sides clashed.

Mingshi Yin shook his head and said, “The rebellion of Anyang... Things look serious.”

“Are we going to ignore this?”

“Why shouldn’t we? This is the Imperial court’s matter. It has nothing to do with the Evil Sky Pavilion.” Mingshi Yin obediently stood by his master’s words.

“We’ll just sit here and enjoy the show then...”

The servants of the Ci Mansion stayed indoors and did not dare to take a single step out of the mansion.

The battle on the streets was fierce.

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng decided to sit on the roof and watched the battle play out from a distance.

“Can Wei Zhuoyan really do this... Isn’t he just sending these small fries to their deaths like this?” Mingshi Yin said, seemingly amused.

In an instant, half of the soldiers were lost.

Those that emerged from the flying chariot were cultivators after all. Although they were only in the Sense Condensing and Brahman Sea realms, against ordinary soldiers, it was like killing an ant with a hammer.

“Well, an impostor is an impostor, after all... If he can’t quell the rebellion here, I don’t think he’ll be able to keep his position for long,” Mingshi Yin said.

At this moment, Mingshi Yin saw two Ten Worlds avatars appear on the northern side of the city.

“Oh, he finally made a move.”

A Ten Worlds avatar meant the cultivator was at least in the middle-stage of the Divine Court realm.

There were two of them to boot. That should be enough to intimidate these masked cultivators.

As expected, the masked cultivators retreated. After all, Brahman Sea realm and Sense Condensing realm cultivators were nothing before a Divine Court realm cultivator.

However, the masked cultivators had numbers on their side. On top of that, they had sent their troops in through the open city gates... Both sides were almost equally matched.

Corpses were strewn all over the streets of Anyang City. They were all bodies of cultivators and soldiers. The common folk of the city was unaffected.

The impressive display of strength by the cultivators damaged many of the city’s buildings. The ground was filled with bumps and potholes.

“This is quite the stalemate.” Mingshi Yin was still sitting on the roof, watching with great interest.

“I can understand why Wei Zhuoyan isn’t doing anything, but what about his subordinates?”

He was the Commander-in-Chief of three armies after all, and he was tasked to quell the rebellion. If Anyang City was plunged into chaos, would that not be humiliating for the Imperial court?

His voice barely faded when a Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar shot toward the city at lightning speed from the northern city gates.

“An elite!” Mingshi Yin frowned.

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng moved in unison as they retreated to the other side of the roof.

“A Six-leaf Hundred Tribulations Insight!”

They knew the cultivator was an elite because his 70-foot-tall Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar did not damage any building as it shot past them at low altitude.

Under the Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar, a pretty lady in embroidered clothes charged at the masked cultivators!

Wherever her avatar passed, the masked cultivators were sent flying. At this moment, hundreds of masked cultivators spat fresh blood from their mouths.

It was a breathtaking scene.

Mingshi Yin hardly blinked as he said, “An avatar can be used in this manner?”

Duanmu Sheng had never seen anything like this before either. He said, “She must be one of Wei Zhuoyan’s people... Strange, when master took Wei Zhuoyan’s dog life, was she not there?”

With just one skill, the masked cultivators dropped to the ground.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

They crashed through the roofs and the buildings crumbled.

There were a few houses that were still inhabited, and their occupants evacuated the place in a hurry with no plan in mind. They merely scattered on the streets.

The two fighting forces seemed to have principles of their own. It seemed like they tried not to harm the citizens.

At this moment, all eyes from the rebel army were focused on the lady.

The Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar vanished, and a lady in blue embroidered robes slowly descended. Her expression was determined as she said, “Those who surrender will be spared. Those who choose to continue with this will be killed without any exception.”
