Chapter 546 - Ye Tianxin Returns

Chapter 546: Ye Tianxin Returns

The three of them engaged in battle instantly.

The air turned turbulent. It was extremely chaotic. The energy rolled out toward the barrier, but the barrier kept it at bay.

The Blue Waves Technique was without waves at first. However, when it was unleashed, it resembled the endless tide. Ice-cold surges and waves swelled alternately at random, catching the target off guard.

The white-clad Ye Tianxin was keeping the duo in check.

“It’s no wonder the Evil Sky Pavilion is able to shock the lands under the heavens… Its first disciple, Yu Zhenghai, and second disciple, Yu Shangrong, are both outstanding individuals. To think that even the sixth disciple is so powerful,” Hua Wudao exclaimed in awe.

“The Blue Waves Technique is magnificent… She’s fighting against two opponents at once. If I didn’t see this with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it.”

“The pressing matter now is to wake the pavilion master up.”

When he heard this, Leng Luo said, “No.”

“What do you mean?”

“When a person’s cultivation is at a critical point, it might be detrimental to him if we forcefully wake him,” Leng Luo said.

“So, you’re saying that we can only stand here and watch?” The others looked flustered.

“This young girl has only recently attained the Eight-leaf stage. She should be able to hold them off for some time…”

The others nodded. At this moment, they could only place their hopes in Ye Tianxin.

It was meaningless for Seven-leaf cultivators and below to interfere in a battle between Eight-leaf cultivators. Moreover, Seven-leaf cultivators aside, the person with the highest cultivation base in the Evil Sky Pavilion at the moment was the Five-leaf Mingshi Yin.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Beams of energies collided in the air.

Ye Tianxin was highly focused as she struck. However, her opponents were Liu Ge, who wielded the super heaven-grade weapon, High Void, and one of the eight great generals, Su Sheng, who was highly experienced on the battlefield. It would be as difficult as ascending to heaven to win against them.

…

An hour later.

The battle was gradually reaching its climax.

The fight was not as intense as it was when it just started.

At this moment, Su Sheng saw that the energy around Lu Zhou was nearly gone. He cried out, “Your Majesty! Old Villain Ji’s protective energy is almost gone! I’ll deal with this woman!”

“Alright.” Liu Ge had noticed it as well. The opportunity was finally here.

Su Sheng raised two fingers. He steeled his resolve and bit his finger. Fresh blood dripped onto the talisman in his left hand. The shining golden talisman seal was instantly dyed crimson from his blood. “Little girl… I’m not called one of the eight great generals for nothing!”

Red talisman seals danced in the air and formed a huge dragon. The densely packed runes weaved together before they lunged toward Ye Tianxin.

Ye Tianxin tossed her Amorous Hoop out as she struck the huge dragon with her Blue Waves Technique. The scene resembled a dragon swimming among the waves of the sea…

The battle instantly intensified several-fold.

Liu Ge’s expression remained indifferent. The red veins on High Void shone blindingly bright at this moment. He tapped the air with his feet, held High Void in his right hand, and flew toward Lu Zhou.

“No!”

“Stop him!”

“That’s a Confucian talisman seal’s golden dragon and an Eight-leaf technique! The little girl is careless!” Zuo Yushu stomped her foot in frustration.

The Evil Sky Pavilion’s four elders left the barrier at once.

Liu Ge seemed to have anticipated this. He launched several palm seals with his left hand and pushed down with all his might.

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

The four Elders were repelled!

Liu Ge kept his sword on course toward Lu Zhou’s head. His eyes were blazing as he coldly said, “It’s over, Brother Ji…”

At this moment, Ye Tianxin unleashed her grand technique and moved toward them. She struck perpendicularly at High Void with her palm.

Bam!

“Hm?” Liu Ge frowned.

This palm strike caused High Void to veer off course. The price Ye Tianxin paid was that her back was now exposed to the huge talisman seal dragon.

Bam!

The huge talisman seal dragon struck Ye Tianxin’s back.

Everything happened in just a blink of an eye.

Ye Tianxin grunted and spat out a mouthful of blood.

“Sixth Junior Sister!”

“Sixth Senior Sister!”

Ye Tianxin had just broken through recently and became an Eight-leaf cultivator. It was amazing that she lasted against two opponents as long as she did. She had done her best.

Everyone’s eyes widened as they looked at the white-clad figure. The blood was a stark contrast against her white robes.

Ye Tianxin fell. As she fell, she caught a glimpse of Lu Zhou. The sight she saw seemed to be frozen in her mind. At this moment, thousands upon thousands of thoughts flashed past Ye Tianxin’s mind. She remembered when she first climbed the mountain to learn the art of cultivation, how her fellow disciples bickered, the helplessness she felt when she left the Evil Sky Pavilion, and the despair and rage she felt when her master destroyed her cultivation base. She had asked herself countless times if she had regrets. No matter the situation, her answer always remained the same. No. There was karma and a cycle for everything. She would have to pay for her own sins. A satisfied smile bloomed on her face at this instant. Everything was over now.

Ye Tianxin continued plummeting to the ground.

After his attack hit its mark, Su Sheng shouted, “You think too highly of your own strength.”

Liu Ge’s sword strike was deflected by Ye Tianxin’s palm strike. His blade missed Lu Zhou by a meter to Lu Zhou’s left.

At this moment, a blue lotus bloomed around Lu Zhou!

Boom!

A blast of energy covering a wide area rippled out.

The blue lotus opened and struck Liu Ge on the chest and side.

Bam!

Liu Ge reeled from the impact.

The force did not subside as it continued spreading. The blue lotus’ power struck the Eight-leaf Su Sheng as well.

Bam!

The two of them flew away like kites with their threads severed. They spat out blood at the same time as they were sent flying back.

With this, Su Sheng’s injuries grew worse.

At this moment, Lu Zhou who was sitting cross-legged on the blue lotus suddenly opened his eyes. The stars of the night skies seemed to fill his eyes as they twinkled and shone. The extraordinary power of the Human and Earth Scrolls was finally in harmony. Although the Human Scroll’s extraordinary power was depleted, the activated Earth Scroll’s extraordinary power instantly filled it up. His cultivation in seclusion was finally over!

Lu Zhou was puzzled by the sight that greeted his eyes as soon as he opened them. He saw a white-clad figure falling to the ground. He frowned and softly said, “Rascal.”

Then, he caught a glimpse of Liu Ge and Su Sheng who were both flying back.

“Hm? Why are both of you injured?”

Liu Ge and Su Sheng. “???”

Lu Zhou slowly rose to his feet as he surveyed his surroundings. The blue lotus under his feet faded away. He saw the Evil Sky Pavilion’s four elders and his disciples. He saw the female cultivators gathered on the plaza before the great hall.

Ye Tianxin fell on the barrier with a bang. The barrier seemed as smooth as glass, and Ye Tianxin continued sliding toward the cliff. Crimson blood stained her white clothes.

Lu Zhou frowned. Scenes played out in his mind. The series of events that happened around him earlier were being replayed in his mind like a movie. Despite his age, his temper was instantly stoked at this moment.

Lu Zhou dove. He raised a palm, and a huge Fiend Monk’s Hand Seal descended from the skies.

As she rolled down, Ye Tianxin saw the hand seal through her swimming vision… It seemed familiar to her.

During the Bluesun Mountain battle, Lu Zhou had used this exact hand seal to capture Ye Tianxin and destroy her cultivation base. Now, the same Fiend Monk’s Hans Seal was coming at her. The difference was this time the Fiend Monk’s Hand Seal was carrying her. She hovered in midair.

Lu Zhou could sense life leaking out of Ye Tianxin at this moment.

Ye Tianxin looked up with difficulty as she called out weakly, “Master?”

“You don’t regret this?” Lu Zhou finally spoke.

“Repaying kindness with my life… I… I don’t regret this,” Ye Tianxin said in a trembling voice.

Lu Zhou shook his head and asked, “Don’t you resent me for driving you out?”

“No.” Her vitality was seeping away. In just a blink of an eye, her hair turned white. She was losing consciousness. The power of the talisman seal’s golden dragon was wreaking havoc in her. She felt as though she was drying up inside.

Lu Zhou raised a hand that was palm radiating with blue energy and temporarily prevented Ye Tianxin from losing her vitality. However, signs of her life fading away were still there. He finally realized there was a possibility that Ye Tianxin might die.

“Master, don’t waste your Primal Qi… The crisis is still unresolved,” Ye Tianxin struggled to say, “I… I have many things I want to tell you… Alas, there’s no time.” Her breathing grew more and more labored.

The power of the talisman seal’s golden dragon had exceeded everyone’s expectations.

Dozens of female cultivators from the Derived Moon Palace prostrated themselves on the ground and sobbed.

The Evil Sky Pavilion’s four elders were silent.

“Rest well. You won’t die,” Lu Zhou said.

“Before I die… I… would like to ask for a favor, master,” Ye Tianxin said.

“What is it?”

“I… want to… rejoin the Evil Sky Pavilion.”
