My disciples are all villains.

Chapter 1616: Teacher is the Mastermind Behind the Scenes (3)

After saying that, Ling Weiyang turned around and flew away.

Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong stood rooted to the ground, not knowing whether they should follow Ling Weiyang or not. They hesitated.

Finally, Lu Zhou said, “Since the Azure Emperor has done you a favor, go.”

The duo did not speak. They did not even call him master. Regardless of what had been said, they had to carry on with the plan. Everything had to be done step by step. Finally, the duo cupped their fists together at Lu Zhou before they flew into the air and disappeared.

Xuanyi flashed to Lu Zhou’s side immediately. Then, to make sure no one could hear him, he said through voice transmission, “When did teacher accept disciples?”

“It’s been many years,” Lu Zhou said.

“Even your disciples are so outstanding,” Xuanyi said, “Their cultivations are incredibly profound, and their future is boundless. They’ll definitely become divine emperors. No wonder Ling Weiyang took fancy to them. They’re much stronger than those two at Southern Split Mountain. These two have the bearing of someone in a high position. Those two at Southern Split Mountain… If they didn’t possess the Great Void Seeds, they’d probably become… street thugs.”

Lu Zhou said in a low voice, “Those two are my disciples as well…”

“…”

Xuanyi was momentarily stunned. A string of mocking words was stuck in his throat, and he had to forcefully swallowed them. Then, he said with a straight face, “To be able to act like their street thugs when they’re actually not… it’s very clear that they’re talented! Talented people are all very interesting…”

Then, Xuanyi glanced at Lu Zhou from the corners of his eyes. He sighed in relief inwardly when he saw that Lu Zhou did not seem angry. Then, he said loudly, “How talented! No wonder they’re able to defeat Zhang He! I welcome them to be the Commander of Xuanyi Palace!”

Zhang He: “???”

Then, Xuanyi said regretfully, “Unfortunately, Ling Weiyang could guess something is wrong. I’m afraid he won’t easily let them return to Xuanyi Palace.”

Lu Zhou did not care about this. He was too lazy to think about it. Since he confirmed the duo was fine and their cultivations had improved, everything was fine. Next, he would have to check on his other disciples. Hence, he asked Xuanyi, “Why don’t you accompany me to Shang Zhang Hall?”

Xuanyi nodded. “We can go any time.”

“Alright.”

At this moment, an idea appeared in Xuanyi’s mind. Then, he asked, “Pavilion… Pavilion Master Lu, perhaps… Could it be that those two girls… also…”

Lu Zhou nodded and did not say anything else. Then, he turned and walked away with his hands on his back.

Xuanyi looked at Lu Zhou’s back as his heart skipped a beat. He said again, “Then, the others…”

Lu Zhou did not say anything and left the square.

Silence meant tacit agreement.

“…”

Realization suddenly dawned on Xuanyi. ‘The Great Void Seeds that everyone had been searching for for so many years were snatched away by teacher! Teacher is the mastermind behind the scenes!’

Zhang He looked at Xuanyi, who was in a daze. After a while, he could no longer hold back so he said, “Your Majesty, why don’t I just give Pavilion Master Lu my position? I understand that you’re worried this might leave a mark on me, but I’ve really thought it through. Nothing is important as long as Xuanyi Palace can grow stronger! I’m willing to step down, and I don’t have any complaints.”

Xuanyi glanced at Zhang He. After a long moment, he scoffed and said, “You think too highly of yourself.”

After saying that, Xuanyi placed his hands on his back and returned to the hall, looking as though he could not be bothered with Zhang He.

“Your Majesty? I really don’t mind.”
