My Disciples Are All Villains
Chapter 1116: A Super Marksman
Time seemed to stop.
Lord Li could not seem to believe his eyes. He had caught the energy arrow; how could it still be so powerful? He thought if he had not been caught off guard, it would have been difficult for the energy arrow to break through his defenses. After all, he was not like his four subordinates who were easily skewered; he was a powerful Thousand Realms Whirling expert after all. Alas, the energy arrow was too close to him so he could not react in time. Just like that, he lost a Birth Chart.
“Lord Li!”
The black lotus cultivators in the surroundings called out anxiously; some of their voices were trembling.
“Ding! Destroyed one Birth Chart. Reward: 3,000 merit points (note: after passing the Birth Trial, the reward for destroying a Birth Chart has been adjusted).”
Lu Zhou shook his head. ‘This is truly an unprecedented crisis! Not only do I have a lack of cards at this time, but even the f*cking system is stirring up trouble behind the scenes!’
In the past, Lu Zhou had been recklessly squandering his trump cards and item cards. For example, he had used extraordinary power to unleash his grand techniques and also used the Golden Buddha’s Body to block every little thing. Currently, he could not afford to do such things anymore. He had to be prudent now, considering the system’s attitude. Perhaps, this was how it was going to be in the future as well. He had to use the least amount of strength to gain the most value.
“You cunning snake!” Lord Li’s angry roar rang in the air.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, “I’m indeed cunning. Young man, have you ever heard of the saying, ‘The older, the wiser’? Don’t blame others for being intelligent just because you’re stupid…”
“You!” Lord Li placed the artifact against his lip and blew on it again.
Wu!
A strange cry echoed in all directions.
At the same time, the Birth Chart Beasts on the ground grew even more violent.
After putting the artifact down, Lord Li shouted, “Kill!”
“Kill!” The 10,000 black lotus cultivators echoed Lord Li’s words, shaking the heavens with their thunderous voices. Following that, along with the fierce beasts, they charged forward.
“Damn! So ruthless!” Zhu Honggong hastily flew up. At this moment, he felt the safest place was by his master’s side so he flew to the edge of the tower to stand near his master.
The other cultivators continued to launch energy swords and energy sabers, trying their best to stop the beasts on the ground and the flying beasts in the sky. Most of them were exhausted and had no energy to continue. However, when they saw Lu Zhou’s straight back and calmness, they gritted their teeth and persevered.
At this moment, Lu Zhou leaped into the sky with Unnamed in the form of a bow in his hand again. The arrow was already nocked; he pulled his hand back before he released the bowstring.
Swoosh!
The energy arrow split into countless arrows.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The arrows accurately landed on the vital points of the hundreds of thousands of flying beasts. Every arrow hit just right.
Everyone was dumbfounded as they watched this scene.
At this time, Lu Zhou turned to look at the black lotus cultivators. Then, he turned his hand and held the bow horizontally before he pulled the bowstring back again.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Arrows flew out in all directions again.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
In just an eye, the energy arrows pierced through dozens of black lotus cultivators.
Just like that, black lotus cultivators began to drop from the sky like flies.
“Ding! Killed one target. Reward: 1,000 merit points. Domain bonus: 500 merit points (note: target had ten leaves).”
“Ding! Killed one target. Reward: 500 merit points. Domain bonus: 500 merit points (note: target had nine leaves).”
Meanwhile, Zhao Hongfu who was standing on the tower had a clear view of Lu Zhou. She saw Lu Zhou’s expression as he carefully released his arrows in an exquisite, precise, and powerful manner. He was the embodiment of all the qualities a Godly Archer should have.
“Avatar!”
Four Thousand Realms Whirling avatars appeared in all four directions as their astrolabes flew out to face the shower of arrows.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The astrolabes blocked the energy arrows with their backs.
Lu Zhou tried to gauge the strength of these Thousand Realms Whirling cultivators; they were all Five Chart experts at least. He wondered if they were from the Dark and Light Alliance.
“Guard the city wall.”
“Understood.”
“Zhao Hongfu, support the formation. Don’t let the city wall break.”
“Understood.”
No one realized that the famous Lu Zhou, who had mostly worked alone, was ordering everyone to work together. Everyone felt it was only natural to take orders from him. His indisputable strength aside, he had greatly boosted their morale with his display of strength. Moreover, their fighting spirit was further roused when they thought about how they were fighting side to side with such a mighty figure! How could their blood not boil in excitement?
“Old Eighth, deal with the two Birth Chart Beasts below.”
“Yes, master!” Zhu Honggong punched his fists together before he leaped off the city wall. The thunderclaps from the Nine Tribulations Thunderblast rang in time with the war drums.
At this moment, it was chaotic on the outside of the city wall. Humans, land beasts, sea beasts, and flying beasts were locked in a fierce battle.
Lu Zhou turned to look at the city guard and shouted, “Leave the Thousand Realms Whirling cultivators to me. All of you, adapt to the situation and go where you’re needed.”
“Yes, sir!”
At this time, most of the flying beast had already been killed by Lu Zhou’s arrows; those that were still alive did not dare to get close. On the contrary, the ground was swarming with fierce beasts.
Humans and fierce beasts were dyed red with blood.
Meanwhile, Everyone’s body was stained with blood.
Meanwhile, the four Thousand Realms Whirling cultivators holding their astrolabes drew closer and closer.
Lu Zhou said loudly as he raised his bow again, “I was waiting for you to bring your astrolabes closer.”
Lu Zhou released the bowstring as four beams of light shot out in four different directions toward the astrolabes. These arrows were clearly different from the shower of arrows earlier. These four blue energy arrows seemed to contain incomprehensible strength.
Bang!
The first energy arrow landed on the astrolabe in the center. The energy arrow that contained the supreme mystic power easily pierced the astrolabe like a hot knife through butter.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The other three energy arrows landed at almost the same time. Similar to the first one, they cut through their respective astrolabes like a hot knife through butter.
A wave of ink-like energy rippled out immediately.
The four Thousand Realms Whirling cultivators were severely injured, They were sent flying back, spitting out mouthfuls of blood.
“Unfortunately… The arrows aren’t fatal.” Lu Zhou shook his head. The defenses and endurance of a Thousand Realms Whirling cultivator were higher after all; the arrows only pierced their astrolabes and did not hit their vital points. Nevertheless, he was almost certain his opponents did not have more than eight Birth Charts; even if he did not use the supreme mystic power, he still could defeat them.
While various thoughts were still running through Lu Zhou’s mind, a mocking laughter suddenly rang in his ears.
“They’re just a cover for me to do this!” Lord Li’s figure seemed to appear out of thin air. With a feint, he moved horizontally as he stabbed out with his dagger that was aimed at Lu Zhou’s heart.
“Get lost!” Since Lord Li was too fast and had appeared too suddenly, Lu Zhou did not have time to think or mobilize his Primal Qi. Instead, he threw out a Thunderblast Card.
Lightning began to flash in the sky immediately.
Boom!
Lord Li was instantly sent flying by this thunderous force. His eyes widened in shock as he exclaimed in disbelief, “Impossible! How could he react so quickly?!”
Following that, Lord Li spat out another mouthful of blood.
When Lu Zhou saw Lord Li did not trigger the sure-kill chance, he said, “You’re lucky…”
Since Lord Li did not trigger the death chance, Lu Zhou decided to continue attacking. He stepped on his flaming golden lotus and flew out of the tower.
“Old Devil Lu! It’s Old Devil Lu! Hold him back! Hold him back!”
Experts from all directions reacted and surrounded Lu Zhou and pounced on him like kamikaze soldiers.
Lu Zhou glanced at the black lotus cultivators and said indifferently, “Your courage is commendable.”
To maintain and manifest Samadhi. Like light and shadow, permeating everywhere while staying still in Samadhi.
The golden lotus suddenly turned blue and shot out.
With this, all the cultivators were sent flying and fell like rain; most were seriously injured and a few died.
Lu Zhou controlled his use of the supreme mystic power precisely, and he did not use his life-saving ultimate skill. It was best to keep this kind of skill for when he really needed it.
After looking around, Lu Zhou said in a deep voice, “Since you dare to oppose me, you must be tired of living…”
The soundwave rolled out; hurting everyone’s eardrums.
The cultivators were intoxicated with joy. With a big shot who possessed at least 12 Birth Charts, they were as steady as Mount Tai.
Lord Li shouted, “Don’t be afraid! Stall him! We will definitely destroy the red lotus domain! We’re not afraid of death! We have numbers on our side; we’ll exhaust you to death! Do you think you’re invincible? Let’s see how long you can remain invincible!”
Lu Zhou flipped his right hand!
Buzz!
Unnamed in the form of a bow appeared in a horizontal position.
“Dodge! Don’t face the attack directly!”
“It’s useless! You can’t kill all of us!”
Lu Zhou swiveled around and suddenly released a golden energy arrow that turned blue in Lord Li’s direction.
Lord Li turned pale with fright; his figure flashed away immediately. His Dao Invisibility technique was at the peak of perfection and far surpassed Leng Luo’s.
“You can’t avoid it!”
Bang!
The arrow suddenly changed direction and pierced the air. Soon after, a figure appeared with an arrow stuck in its chest.
“You… You… How did you find me?”
The power of smell allowed Lu Zhou to forever remember his target’s scent, and in turn, also allowed him to easily locate his target.
“Ding! Destroyed one Birth Chart. Reward: 3,000 merit points.”
At this moment, white lotuses began to fall from the sky as a bone-chilling wind swept across the sky and the heart. In just a heartbeat, the battlefield turned into a land of snow.
White-clad cultivators descended one after another from the sky.
“The White Tower Council?”
A voice rang in the sky at this moment, “The White Tower Council’s Judge Bi Shuo is here. Please forgive me for being tardy, Pavilion Master Lu!”
Lu Zhou looked at the sky indifferently. He stroked his beard and said, “Kill them.”
“As you wish.”
The white-clad cultivators led by Bi Shuo descended on the black-clad cultivators.
Lu Zhou shifted his gaze back to Lord Li, who had lost two Birth Charts. “Come here.”
The Fiend Monk’s Hand Seal flew out and grabbed Lord Li before dangling Lord Li in front of Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou asked in a deep voice, “Tell me the truth, where are they now?”
