Chapter 347: Tear Stain Boxing Gloves

Chapter 347 Tear Stain Boxing Gloves

His antics left the others dumbfounded . They had to give it to him .

Lu Zhou, on the other hand, frowned .

They waited until Zhu Honggong was at the center of the great hall .

He kowtowed again . “Greetings, master . ”

Mingshi Yin glanced at Zhu Honggong and said, “Old Eighth, what’s with all this fanfare? You’re a disciple of the Evil Sky Pavilion, for crying out loud . Aren’t you afraid you’ll shame the Evil Sky Pavilion’s name with this display?”

“I genuinely want to bow and salute my master… Ever since I returned to the Evil Sky Pavilion, I’ve never given Master a proper bowing to . It’s only natural for me to kneel three times and kowtow nine times,” Zhu Honggong replied .

He had a point .

Lu Zhou looked at Zhu Honggong again .

Name: Zhu Hongong

Identity: Human of Great Yan

Realm: Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm

vas

Although he had just recently obtained his Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar, he was considered to be in the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm . It was not something a Divine Court realm cultivator could compare to .

“Stand up and speak,” Lu Zhou said .

Zhu Honggong stood up . He grinned and said, “Thank you, master . ”

“Show me your avatar . ”

This was a crucial moment . The ability to manifest a Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar was the difference between average cultivators and grand cultivators . Countless cultivators had failed at this stage . With the Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar, the avatar’s completeness and strength would determine the future of the cultivator .

Little Yuan’er’s avatar was extremely complete . It was full of spiritual energy and vigor . They had high hopes for it in the future .

Some cultivators would have deformed Hundred Tribulations Insight avatars . These avatars would be hard-pressed to even sprout leaves .

“Yes, master . ” Zhu Honggong conjured up his Primal Qi and activated his avatar .

An avatar that was half a man’s height and resembled a fat toddler appeared .

When the others saw this, they could hardly suppress their urge to laugh .

The avatar took after its owner .

Fat .

However, the avatar’s completeness was satisfying . It was also full of Primal Qi .

Duan Xing was secretly shocked . The Evil Sky Pavilion’s eighth disciple was so talented . Just how terrifying would he be in the future?

There was no need to mention the ninth disciple . It was rumored that the ninth disciple, Ci Yuan’er, had even more terrifying talents . She entered the Divine Court realm in just five years . Nobody had ever achieved that nor would anybody achieve that in the future .

Zhu Honggong looked at his own avatar proudly . He could not help but straighten his back .

Zhao Yue was not envious, but she felt slightly ashamed . After all, she had joined the pavilion earlier than him . She was quite accomplished in her Brilliant Jade Technique, and yet, she had no breakthrough . When she saw Zhu Honggong’s avatar, she could not help but feel a slight discomfort in her heart .

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded . He waved his hand .

Swoosh!

A silver box dropped before Zhu Honggong .

When Zhu Honggong saw it, he was confused, “Master, what’s this?”

Lu Zhou waved his hand again .

The box split in half . It was oddly shaped .

“I’m giving you the Tear Stain Boxing Gloves . I hope you’ll put them to good use,” Lu Zhou said .

Ever since the box was opened, Lu Zhou had been keeping it . After much thought, he felt that it was suited for Zhu Honggong’s Nine Tribulations Thunderblast . Moreover, he needed to improve his disciples’ cultivation bases as quickly as he could .

When Zhu Honggong heard this, he was so filled with emotions that he cried and fell to his knees, thanking Lu Zhou profusely . “Thank you, master! Thank you, master!”

Duan Xing salivated at this sight .

Zhao Yue was now genuinely envious . She was the only one without a weapon now . It was only natural that she felt envious .

Perhaps, the weapon had a naturally high affinity with Zhu Honggong . He barely placed his hands on them when a click was heard . He put on the boxing gloves with much ease .

“Ding! Activated Tear Stain Box . Target owner: Zhu Honggong . Reward: 1,000 merit points . ” “Congratulations, Mister Eighth . ” Duan Xing cupped his fists .

“Congratulations, Old Eighth,” Mingshi Yin smiled as he walked up to Zhu Honggong’s side and said, “This seems sturdy . Even Eldest Senior Brother’s Jasper Saber can’t cut this . You’ve hit the jackpot!”

“Have I?” Zhu Honggong was stunned . He did not expect the item to be so amazing .

“Of course . Why would I lie to you? Besides, do you think a weapon given by master would be shabby?” However, inwardly, Mingshi Yin thought to himself, ‘The weapon is, indeed, sturdy, but it’s too hideous . I’ll have to compliment it some more . ’

Zhu Honggong was overjoyed . “I won’t let you down, master . ”

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded . He noticed that Zhu Honggong’s loyalty had skyrocketed . It was now stable . This was also within his expectations .

Zhu Honggong retreated to the side and toyed with his boxing gloves .

Lu Zhou no longer bothered with Zhu Honggong . Instead, he shifted his gaze to Zhao Yue . “Zhao Yue…”

“Yes, master . ” “Your cultivation base has deteriorated while you were in the palace,” Lu Zhou said .

Zhao Yue’s face reddened, she felt ashamed . “I’ll work hard and not let you down, master . ”

Duan Xing smiled and said, “I’m impressed that you’re putting so much effort into your disciples, old senior…”

“Duan Xing, you’ve done well in Cloud Shine Forest . Naturally, I won’t mistreat you… How about this, you can make a request, and I’ll do my best to fulfill it,” Lu Zhou said .

Duan Xing was delighted to hear this . He hastily bowed and said, “I dare not! All the efforts I expended was sincere . I don’t dare to take credit . ”

“Very well . ” Lu Zhou nodded .

IL11

Hold up . This isn’t right . Aren’t we supposed to exchange more pleasantries? What about my request? This… Will I have to bring it to my grave?’ Duan Xing was stunned .

Lu Zhou looked at Duan Xing and said, “If the Nether Sect is tactful, they won’t raise a hand against the Fiend Temple after this . ” “Thank you, old senior . ” With this, at least the Fiend Temple’s safety was guaranteed . As for his other requests, well, he did not dare to push his luck .

“Send our guest away . ”

After Duan Xing left the Evil Sky Pavilion, Lu Zhou waved his arm and said, “If there’s nothing else, that’ll be all for today . ”

“I’ll take my leave, master . ”

“Safe journey, old senior . ”

Lu Zhou stood up and returned to the eastern pavilion .

Shouning Palace, Imperial city of the Divine Capital .

“Imperial grandmother, Zhao Yue belongs to the Evil Sky Pavilion . You must be wary of her words . ” The prince who stood in the bed-chamber was the heir apparent, Liu Zhi .

The Empress Dowager closed her eyes and did not look at Liu Zhi . With a stern tone, she said, “Do you wish to see me die as well?”

Liu Zhi’s face fell . He kneeled at once and said, “I dare not . I’m only worried that something bad might happen to you!”

“If something were to happen to me, it would’ve happened in Obedient Villa! Is there a need to wait until now?” the Empress Dowager slowly asked . Ever since the incident in Obedient Villa, she had a newfound dislike for all the princes .

Liu Zhi continued to kneel as he said, “Imperial grandmother, I will surely give you a satisfactory explanation regarding second brother . Please don’t let this bother you . ”

At this moment, Li Yunzhao, who had been standing at the side for a long time without saying anything, finally spoke up, “Your Highness, I have something in my mind, but I wonder if it’s appropriate to say it . ” “Speak . ”

Li Yunzhao was a famous person by the Empress Dowager’s side, after all . Liu Zhi had to take him seriously .

“The Empress Dowager’s sickness can’t be allowed to fester… Moreover, His Majesty has given his agreement . If you wish to fulfill your filial duty, Your Highness, you should be considerate of the Empress Dowager . Also…” Li Yunzhao glanced around him before saying in a hushed tone, “The Empress Dowager is still pained by the death of His Second Highness . Please don’t bring this topic up . ” “You have a point, Eunuch Li . ” Liu Zhi stood up . He bowed and said, “Imperial grandmother, I have a close guard with a profound cultivation base . Since you’re going, I’ll leave him with you . ”

“That’ll be all . ” The Empress Dowager’s eyes were still closed as she waved her hand .

“Goodbye, grandmother . ” Liu Zhi retreated out of Shouning Palace . He barely took a step outside the palace when his guard came up to him .

With his hands on his back, Liu Zhi walked, and said, “Tell Jiang Liang to escort my grandmother to the Evil Sky Pavilion . I will take care of his family . If he brings back Jiang Aijian’s head, he’ll be handsomely rewarded . ”

“Understood!”
