My Disciples Are All Villains
chapter-975

Tian Ming's status in the White Tower Council was not high. Among those in Great Yuan, he could not be considered a genius. He only managed to become a cultivation expert through his own hard work. After that, he was selected by the White Tower Council, he became a whiteguard. Alas, the higher his strength rose, the more realized hard work could not make up for innate talent. Although hard work would not betray him, the process was long and arduous compared to those who were highly talented. Therefore, there was nothing he wanted more than to change his fate and become like those geniuses who were highly respected, standing high and giving orders.

Tian Ming had heard stories about the Unknown Land from his seniors in the White Tower Council. He had heard those in the Unknown Land were all masters because they possessed the Great Void Seed that changed their physique and talent. There were also rumors that those who participated in the Great Void Expedition described the Great Void energy as powerful, pure, and calm.

Who could remain unmoved when faced with such treasures?

"The Great Void energy…" The greed in Tian Ming's eyes grew more and more apparent as he looked at Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai. After a moment, he shifted his gaze to the scroll in the duo's possession. The light from the scroll had revealed the duo's Great Void energies. Since it was about to reveal the Great Void energy, there was no doubt the scroll was a treasure as well.

Meanwhile, Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai, who were unaware that their Great Void energies had been exposed, looked at the glowing scroll and clicked their tongue in wonder.

"It was hidden quite deeply…"

It's hidden quite deeply."

After the light from the scroll dimmed and faded away, Yu Shangrong reached out and put it away.

Yu Zhenghai asked, "Second Junior Brother, don't you feel that master has a lot of secrets?"

"Yes." Yu Shangrong said.

"When we fought him together in the past, he was just a mere Eight-leaf cultivator, right? Moreover, how does he know about this treasure in the red lotus domain?" Yu Zhenghai asked.

"You said he was just a mere Eight-leaf cultivator?"

"That's not the point."

"Just a mere Eight-leaf cultivator?" Yu Shangrong persisted.

"..."

Whoosh!

At this moment, an energy sword that was about 100 feet long and looked like an ice crystal sailed in the air toward the duo.

The duo sensed the incoming danger and jumped back in unison.

Bang!

The huge energy sword stabbed into the place where the duo had been standing just a moment ago.

The duo turned around simultaneously and looked at the whiteguard standing in the distance.

Tian Ming said, "Please leave that thing you found behind..."

Yu Zhenghai shook his head. "So you finally exposed your true intention?"

Tian Ming replied, "The White Tower Council came here first. According to the rules of the cultivation world, the first to arrive has the right to the place."

"But we were the ones who found this item. Moreover, even if we follow the rules, my master was here first before the White Tower Council. Why should we leave the item behind?" Yu Zhenghai asked. He laughed as though he could believe how preposterous Tian Ming's words were.

"If your master were here first, show me the evidence…" Tian Ming said. He had already thought of an excuse after all. He decided to take the risk to obtain the chance to raise his talent.

Yu Shangrong smiled indifferently. "The fact that we found this thing is evidence itself…."

Tian Ming. He could not refute Yu Shangrong's words. "..." After a beat, he said, "You're wrong. The White Tower Council was here a long time ago. Even the Black Tower Council doesn't challenge this fact. My words remain the same; leave the item behind."

Yu Zhenghai shook his head and said, "Second Junior Brother, do you want to go first or should I go first?"

Upon hearing these words, Tian Ming scoffed disdainfully. "Both of you are going to die!"

Following that, Tian Ming extended his hand and placed it on the pole of the white flag.

In just an instant, the Dao inscriptions on the pole that was like a dragon flared with light immediately. They came alive and snaked up gracefully toward the fluttering white flag.

A crackling noise rang in the air as the white flag shot out thousands upon thousands of white energy swords.

"Second Junior Brother, step back." Yu Zhenghai's expression darkened as he warned Yu Shangrong. After all, Yu Shangrong was only at the Ten-leaf stage; how could Yu Shangrong stand up against a Thousand Realms Whirling expert.

Nevertheless, Yu Shangrong had never been a coward. Instead of retreating, he brandished his Longevity Sword and advanced. As the thousands and thousands of white energy swords were like raindrops, he slashed them with his sword. His speed was faster than usual. It was so fast that he seemed to form a barrier that repelled the white energy swords.

Yu Zhenghai was taken aback by Yu Shangrong's speed. Although he knew Yu Shangrong had gotten stronger, he did not expect Yu Shangrong to be so strong. When he recovered his senses, he leaped forward with the Jasper Saber in his hand and broke through the onslaught of white energy swords.

Tian Ming was surprised. "Their defenses are so good?"

"What do you think?" Yu Zhenghai said when he heard Tian Ming's words.

Without any warning, the Great Dark Heaven Memorial's Dark Heavenly Starlight fell immediately. A sky full of energy sabers pressed down in just an instant.

Tian Ming frowned. The formation flag was still slightly weak. "You're courting death…"

Following that, Tian Ming removed his hand from the pole of the white flag before he manifested an astrolabe in his hand. He turned the astrolabe around and pushed it out. Soon enough, a beam of white light shot out from the back of the astrolabe, breaking through the Dark Heavenly Starlight and shooting toward Yu Zhenghai's chest.

Clang!

Yu Zhenghai hurriedly raised the Jasper Saber to block the attack. When the attack landed, a loud explosion rang in the air as he was pushed backward.

At this moment, Yu Shangrong flew toward Tian Ming at lightning speed with agile movements. As soon as he arrived in front of Tian Ming, he brandished his sword and launched energy swords toward Tian Ming.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The energy swords rained down like a violent storm on Tian Ming.

Meanwhile, Yu Shangrong moved to the left, the right, up, and down as he continued to attack.

Tian Ming frowned. 'Is he really a Ten-leaf cultivator?'

After a moment, Tian Ming attributed Yu Shangrong's strength to the flood-grade Longevity Sword. He knew he could not afford to hold back now. Otherwise, he would be at a disadvantage. He roared, "Get lost!"

Boom!

The power of the Birth Chart sent Yu Shangrong flying. He felt his arm go numb as he flipped in the air to stabilize his footing.

Yu Zhenghai asked, "Are you alright?"

"Do I look like I'm alright?"

"..."

Tian Ming's Birth Chart power clearly showed the difference of the Thousand Realms Whirling from the other realms. Before he made a move again, he said scornfully, "Ten leaves are just ten leaves in the end. No matter what secret techniques or tricks you have, you can't make up for the difference between our strengths…"

Buzz!

A 400-foot Thousand Realms Whirling avatar appeared in front of Yu Shangrong immediately. The appearance of the avatar caused the pressure bearing down on him to multiply. When he saw a palm seal falling down, he hurriedly raised his hand to block it.

Bang!

Yu Shangrong was sent flying back again.

A crackling sound rang in the air again as the white formation flag suddenly increased in height. It rose another 500 feet, reaching 1,000 feet.

Yu Zhenghai shot up into the sky and brought the Jasper Saber down with two hands at the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar as he said, "Your opponent is me!"

Tian Ming did not pay any attention to Yu Zhenghai and rushed toward Yu Shangrong instead.

Bang!

An energy saber landed on the astrolabe hanging at the back of the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar. However, apart from some ripples, the white avatar remained undamaged.

At this moment, the avatar released the Birth Chart power again. It rolled out like a huge wave toward Yu Zhenghai. At the same time, the formation flag began shooting out even more energy swords.

"Retreat." Yu Shangrong suddenly flashed and arrived at Yu Zhenghai's side at top speed.

As though the duo had a tacit understanding, they sped out of the area in the range of the white flag formation.

Tian Ming frowned. He thought the duo's speed was strange. More and more, he could tell the duo was special. One of them was just a mere Ten-leaf cultivator, but his strength was far beyond that of a Ten-leaf cultivator.

In the end, Tian Ming shook his head and dismissed his thoughts. He was determined to obtain the duo's Great Void energies. He quickly slammed his right hand on the ground. In just an instant, the ground burst with light before another two white flags shot out of the ground.

In just a blink of an eye, the three white flags connected, forming a triangle formation that trapped Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai.

Tian Ming flew up with his avatar above the triangle formation and looked down at the duo as he said, "I'm sorry. You can only blame your Great Void energies for this…"

Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong looked at each other, finally realizing they had been exposed.

"So, that's what you're after…"

Tian Ming said, "I believe no one in this world will be able to resist this temptation…"

"You think you can take us down alone?"

"I'm more than enough. Moreover, I'm not willing to share these treasures with others…" Tian Ming replied truthfully.

Yu Zhenghai nodded. "I admire your courage. At least you're honest about your intentions, unlike those hypocrites."

Tian Ming shook his head. "There's no use putting on airs. I won't give you any chance to escape at all." Following that, he struck in three different directions.
