How could Fan Xiuwen not feel furious? These people wanted to refine his dead subordinate’s weapon after all! However, as the loser, he had no say in this. If he had been defeated by those from the Noble Path, he could still mock them. However, this was the Evil Sky Pavilion. Even if Mingshi Yin ripped out Chen Zhonghe’s tendons and bones, there was nothing he could say about it. He could only glare at these people helplessly. He tried to circulate his Primal Qi again, but he discovered his dantian was still empty.

Fan Xiuwen was a knowledgeable man. He had traveled far and wide and had seen all kinds of cultivation methods and techniques from different sects. However, this was his first time encountering the Binding Cage Technique. The more unfamiliar he was with something, the more difficult it would be for him to defend against it.

Lu Zhou sat with his back straight on his throne as he looked at the knife. Finally, he said emotionlessly, “Bring it to me.”

“Yes, master.” Mingshi Yin was inwardly delighted. He picked up the precious knife with both his hands and presented it to Lu Zhou reverently before obediently retreating to the side.

Heaven-grade weapons were extremely rare. Many cultivators would not even encounter one in their entire lives. Moreover, even if they possessed a heaven-grade weapon, if their cultivation bases were not, at least, in the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm, they would not dare to simply disclose it. After all, it would be difficult for them to guard against stronger cultivators who coveted the heaven-grade weapons. Therefore, many cultivators were content with possessing a top earth-grade weapon. It could be tempered and refined into a heaven-grade weapon in the future. However, it was extremely difficult to refine a weapon. It was impossible to refine weapons without spending several decades on the process. Even then, many cultivators were willing to try it since the lure of a heaven-grade weapon was too strong.

Lu Zhou picked up the knife and appraised it. The knife’s design was not the best. In fact, it was slightly on the uglier side. He raised his right hand and Unnamed appeared out of thin air in his hand. He used Unnamed to slash across the knife.

Everyone else was stunned and baffled by Lu Zhou’s action. From their perspective, it only seemed like Lu Zhou had drawn his finger across the knife. The knife was a top earth-grade weapon after all, they thought it was preposterous that Lu Zhou was trying to break the knife with his bare hands. Although all of them shared the same thought, naturally, none of them dared to verbalize their thoughts.

Fan Xiuwen said in his deep voice, “As expected of a villain, coveting the possession of a dead man… How do you sleep at night?

Mingshi Yin rolled his eyes and said, “If we live by your standards, those who fight over weapons in the cultivation world won’t be able to sleep at night.”

Fan Xiuwen could not retort. It was indeed common for people to fight over weapons.

Lu Zhou shook his head after inspecting the weapon. Previously, when he had used Unnamed against the Male and Female Twin Swords, the twin swords were unscathed. Currently, this peak earth-grade weapon was also unaffected by Unnamed. Did this mean Unnamed was not even at the earth-grade level?

Lu Zhou tossed the knife away, and Mingshi Yin caught it immediately. Mingshi Yin was positively delighted. However, as soon as he caught the knife, he heard a soft crack before he saw a fine crack appearing on the knife. It did not take long before it snapped into two and fell to the ground.

Mingshi Yin was as motionless as a wooden chicken as he stared at the broken knife with a stunned expression. The knife was cleanly cut like tofu.

Fan Xiuwen frowned.

Although Lu Zhou’s expression was calm, he was inwardly shocked. It seemed like Unnamed was stronger than a peak earth-grade weapon. It was highly like that Unnamed was a heaven-grade weapon. A heaven-grade weapon that could transform into different forms was definitely a priceless treasure.

Mingshi Yin’s stunned expression quickly turned bitter. He had gone through great pains to obtain this weapon, but his master had broken it with his bare hands! He lamented inwardly, ‘Master, didn’t I work hard enough?’

Finally, Lu Zhou said, “A mere earth-grade weapon isn’t fit to enter my Evil Sky Pavilion.”

“…” Mingshi Yin was stunned speechless. ‘A mere earth-grade weapon…’ Then, did this mean there were better weapons in the Evil Sky Pavilion?

Little Yuan’er giggled and said, “Fourth Senior Brother, look at the weapon in Third Senior Brother’s hands. That’s the Overlord Spear! Isn’t it cool? Third Senior Brother fought against two opponents with that weapon!”

Mingshi Yin turned to look at the Overlord Spear in Duanmu Sheng’s hands.

The Overlord Spear’s length and the dragon carving that was wrapped around the shaft gave it a sophisticated air. He recalled when the ten elites laid siege to Golden Court Mountain, he had urged Duanmu Sheng to leave, but Duanmu Sheng would not leave because the Overlord Spear was here. He did not expect his master to give such a precious weapon to Duanmu Sheng! His heart felt heavy as he thought about how unfair it was! Compared to a heaven-grade weapon, a peak earth-grade weapon was truly similar to trash.

“Master, your majestic power knows no bounds. This garbage can’t even take one hit from you. It’s clearly a crude weapon!” Mingshi Yin finally said before he kicked the broken knife away. After kicking the knife away, he smiled ingratiatingly before he asked, “Master, when will I be able to possess a weapon suitable for me?”

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, “Carry out your duties well.”

Mingshi Yin was greatly delighted by these words. They were equivalent to a promise that he would be given a heaven-grade weapon. Although his master did not specify when he would be given the weapon, his master was a man of his word. He did not hesitate as he fell to his knees and kowtow sincerely. “Thank you, master! I’ll continue to work hard, and I won’t let you down!”

Loyalty +2%.

Lu Zhou nodded lightly. This was much better compared to when he had just transmigrated here. Mingshi Yin’s loyalty was much more stable compared to before. As expected, it was difficult to just rely on intimidation and brute strength to obtain someone’s loyalty.

At this moment, two female cultivators from Derived Moon Palace cried out in unison.

“Palace Master!”

“Palace Master, are you alright?”

Two female cultivators from the Derived Moon Palace helped Ye Tianxin, who had fainted, up.

Little Yuan’er quickly ran over and briefly examined Ye Tianxin. She said, “She’s fine. You’ll scare my master by making a fuss like this!”

“…” Mingshi Yin was speechless. ‘Little Junior Sister mentions master at every opportunity. I certainly can’t compare to her.’

Lu Zhou waved his arm and said, “Lock her in the south pavilion so she can continue reflecting on her actions.”

“Yes, master!” Little Yuan’er brought Ye Tianxin and the two female cultivators from Derived Moon Palace out of the Evil Sky Pvilion’s great hall.

At the same time, Lu Zhou discovered that Ye Tianxin’s hatred was decreasing rapidly. It seemed like her hatred that stemmed from the incident in Fish Dragon Village was disappearing. Initially, he only wanted Fan Xiuwen to explain the reason behind the incident. However, Fang Xiuwen’s stubborn manner of concealing the incident only piqued his interest. Moreover, this matter was also highly likely to be related to his missing memories. After mulling over it for a moment, he said indifferently, “Seal his cultivation base and lock him up.”

“Yes, master!” Duanmu Sheng grabbed Fan Xiuwen’s shoulder.

Fan Xiuwen was like a chick after being bound by the Binding Cage Technique. He was carried out of the great hall by Duanmu Sheng with a single arm.

Since Lu Zhou was not certain the Binding Cage card would last, he quickly ordered his disciple to seal Fan Xiuwen’s cultivation base. He had time on his hands so he’ll use the various tricks in his arsenal to make Fan Xiuwen talk.

Lu Zhou was still lost in his thoughts when a female cultivator walked into the great hall. “P-pavilion Master, the Black Knights at the foot of the mountain are making a ruckus, refusing to leave.”

It was only natural that the Black Knights refused to leave since Fan Xiuwen, their leader, had been captured. When Lu Zhou considered the palace’s connection to them, he said nonchalantly, “Fan Xiuwen is staying in the Evil Sky Pavilion. Tell those who have no business here to leave.” He had used the word, ‘staying’, to tell those people that Fan Xiuwen was still alive.

The female cultivator looked at Lu Zhou timidly as she asked, “B-but what if they still refuse to leave?”

Only

“Leave it to Mingshi Yin.”

“Understood. I’ll inform Mister Fourth about this.”

…

At the foot of Golden Court Mountain, several hundred meters beyond the barrier.

Dozens of black knights were looking up at the Evil Sky Pavilion. Due to the barrier, they could only stomp their feet helplessly in frustration.

Meanwhile, hidden nearby in the forest, an elegant man dressed in green robes was silently observing this.

A person dressed in all black stood behind the green-clad man. The black-clad man asked respectfully, “Senior, are we going to attack these people?”
