Chapter 137: Offering Amnesty is a Great Mishap

Lu Zhou sat down calmly . He ignored them and seemed to be thinking about another matter .

Mingshi Yin would never let an opportunity to showcase himself go to waste . Since his master left the matter in his hands, this meant his master valued him .

“Wu Sheng and Wu Guan?” Mingshi Yin’s gaze fell on the duo . “Are you the descendants of the Ten Shamans?”

Wu Sheng, the one on the left, bowed and said, “We brothers are indeed descendants of the Ten Shamans . ”

Mingshi Yin said, “You’re the ones who sealed my junior sister’s cultivation base, right?”

Wu Sheng said, “That’s a misunderstanding . The reason we’re here is to resolve that misunderstanding . ”

“I’m listening,” Mingshi Yin said with a smile as he sat down .

Wu Sheng said slowly, “Although we’re descendants of the Ten Shamans, we’re loyal to Great Yan’s Imperial court . Recently, there have been some minor conflicts and misunderstandings with the Evil Sky Pavilion . My lady has ordered me to visit the Evil Sky Pavilion and apologize to the Pavilion Master . ”

“That’s all?” Mingshi Yin asked skeptically .

“When my lady visited the Clarity Sect a while ago, the Clarity Sect’s elites had coincidentally captured Miss Fifth, Zhao Yue . Hence, my lord sealed Miss Fifth’s cultivation base . For this transgression, my lady is willing to offer up five mystic-grade weapons and 20,000 gold as compensation . ”

As he spoke, two of the soldiers behind him opened the box they had been carrying . There were five weapons and gold that shone brilliantly .

When Mingshi Yin heard this, he smiled and said, “Mystic-grade weapons? I’m impressed! Let’s see… What’s this?” The Separation Hook and Scabbard hovered above his right palm . It was shrouded in a thin layer of energy that clearly displayed his weapon’s grade .

Duanmu Sheng chimed in, “There’s also my Overlord Spear . ” He raised his right hand and the Overlord Spear spun in circles . His energy formed lights that traveled from the spear’s tip to the end of its shaft . This made the carving of the dragon on the shaft look even more majestic .

The two disciples’ heaven-grade weapons were on full display .

Wu Sheng and Wu Guan exchanged a glance . A hint of shock appeared in their eyes before it quickly disappeared .

“We have a whole new level of respect for the Evil Sky Pavilion . Heaven-grade weapons seem so ordinary here,” Wu Sheng said flatteringly .

“Now that you know this… How can you have the confidence to carry a pile of rejects up our mountain?”

“We’ve been rude,” Wu Sheng said as he cupped his fists .

Mingshi Yin asked, “Who’s your lady?”

In truth, it was easy to find out about this . After several incidents, they were certain this elite was the favorite person by the Second Prince’s side .

“My lady’s name is Mo Li . She’s the most powerful witchcraft cultivator in Great Yan!” Wu Yan said, a hint of pride could be clearly heard in his tone .

Upon hearing this, Little Yuan’er said provokingly, “The most powerful witchcraft cultivator? You can brag all you want, but I won’t believe it . ”

Wu Sheng and Wu Guan glanced at Little Yuan’er .

“That’s not important . What’s important is… Lord Pavilion Master’s thoughts . ” Wu Sheng cupped his fists together again .

Mingshi Yin shook his head and said, “If she had personally come, there might be a chance . Both of you aren’t qualified to speak to my master . ”

“Uh…” Wu Sheng could not help but feel taken aback . An ominous feeling rose in his heart . He hastily explained, “Lady Mo Li has many matters to attend to each day . To tell you the truth, Lord Chen Zhu passed away some days ago . Lady Mo Li is too saddened by this, and she can’t leave the Divine Capital . ”

Wu Guan chimed in, “Lady Mo Li has been searching for the murderer, working herself to the bones night and day . Lady Mo Li will surely tear the murderer to pieces when she finds him . When this matter is dealt with, Lady Mo Li will surely visit the Evil Sky Pavilion . ” He paused to take a breath before he continued, “Also, I received information from the palace that someone was impersonating the Evil Sky Pavilion in the Measure Heaven River . Those people are too audacious . Lady Mo Li will also deal with the impostors in order to resolve the conflict with the Evil Sky Pavilion . ”

Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng were slightly stunned by these words . There was the Grand Witchcraft Formation near Measure Heaven River . Chen Zhu, one of the Three Godly Archers, was killed by the Evil Sky Pavilion . At that time, the Witchcraft Formation was fully activated, obscuring everyone’s vision . Ding Fanqiu’s impersonation of the Evil Sky Pavilion had averted the palace’s attention . In other words, the palace did not know it was the Evil Sky Pavilion who killed Chen Zhu .

At this moment, Lu Zhou, who had remained silent all this while, suddenly said, “I’ll bury the hatchet regarding Zhao Yue . ”

Lu Zhou’s disciples exchanged a look . They were slightly taken aback . Who knew their master would be so magnanimous? Compared to the past, he was now as different as heaven and earth .

“Thank you, Pavilion Master!” Wu Sheng and Wu Guan bowed in unison .

After Wu Sheng straightened his body, he said, “There’s another reason for our visit to the Evil Sky Pavilion . ”

“Speak . ”

“The Evil Sky Pavilion is on the Fiend Path . The ten great sects are eyeing it like prey . Lady Mo Li is sincerely impressed by the Evil Sky Pavilion’s strength . Currently, Great Yan’s Imperial family is in dire need of support . Would the Evil Sky Pavilion consider serving the Imperial court and bring joy to the general populace?” Wu Shen asked slowly .

“Are you trying to offer amnesty by recruiting us into your ranks?”

“This isn’t recruitment . Lady Mo Li genuinely admires the Evil Sky Pavilion . This is an offer of friendship . Moreover, with this, the Evil Sky Pavilion will be taking the first step on the Noble Path and will surely be respected by all!”

Duanmu Sheng raised his Overlord Spear and struck the floor .

Clang!

“Anyone else can say those words, but not both of you . How many people do you think have been hurt by witchcraft? I’m sure you know that clearly . And yet, you have the temerity to preach about being on the Noble Path?!”

Wu Sheng and Wu Guan were rendered speechless .

Mingshi Yin chimed in, “If you really want to bring happiness to the people… Can you explain the massacre of innocent people in Measure Heaven River?”

Wu Sheng frowned . The ominous feeling in his heart grew even stronger . He felt everyone’s eyes were trained on him and Wu Guan . Finally, he asked, “The Evil Sky Pavilion knows about Measure Heaven River’s incident as well?”

Mingshi Yin replied, “Chen Zhu was too presumptuous so my master sent him to the afterlife . ”

“…” Wu Sheng and Wu Guan took a step backward in unison . They looked at Mingshi Yin with expressions of disbelief .

Wu Sheng forced himself to calm down before he asked, “The Evil Sky Pavilion killed Lord Chen Zhu?”

“Are you deaf?” Mingshi Yin asked with a smile .

Wu Sheng quickly offered his own analysis of the incident and said, “Speaking about this, I’m sure there’s a misunderstanding . Lord Chen Zhu was told the people near Measure Heaven River were only impostors . Lord Chen Zhu must have mistaken the Pavilion Master for the impostor . Although Lord Chen Zhu was a Godly Archer, he had always been impetuous with his actions . If he had offended Lord Pavilion Master, then he could only blame himself for his death . ”

“It’s true that you people are shameless and have thick skin . Didn’t you just say your lady wants to tear Chen Zhu’s murderer into pieces? Look, my master is here . Are you brave enough to make a move?” Mingshi Yin said mockingly . However, he froze for a moment, realizing he had said something wrong . He lowered his head and slapped his face as he said, “That was a slip of tongue . Please forgive me, master . ”

Lu Zhou was not bothered by this . His expression appeared calm .

Wu Sheng said awkwardly, “It’s all a misunderstanding . I didn’t know that Lord Chen Zhu died in the Pavilion Master’s hands . I hope the magnanimous Pavilion Master won’t hold this against me . ”

“You’re wrong . ” Mingshi Yin shook his head .

“…”

“A mere Chen Zhu could never satisfy the Evil Sky Pavilion . ” Mingshi Yin waved his arm . Two female cultivators beside him bowed slightly .

Shortly after, the two female cultivators carried an unconscious Ye Tianxin over on a wooden chair .

Everyone’s eyes were on Ye Tianxin .

Wu Sheng was confused . “This is…”

“This is my master’s sixth disciple, Ye Tianxin… She’s from Measure Heaven River’s Fish Dragon River,” Zhao Yue said .

Wu Sheng frowned slightly . He suddenly realized why the Evil Sky Pavilion had such an attitude .

“I see . ”

Wu Sheng’s confidence was dwindling as he cupped his hands together and said, “To tell you the truth, General Wei Zhuoyan of Changning is the one who annihilated the Fish Dragon Village . It has nothing to do with Lady Mo Li . ”

Duanmu Sheng sneered . “So we should just take your word for it?”

Wu Sheng and Wu Guan’s expressions changed slightly . They fell to one knee at the same time and said, “We have no knowledge of this . If our lady is really involved in this, we’re willing to atone for it . Please forgive us, Pavilion Master!”
