My Disciples Are All Villains

Chapter 1557 Capture Operation (1)

The Great Void was as vast and boundless as the Unknown Land.

The ten halls were located in ten different locations that coincided with the ten Pillars of Destruction. There were many runic passages that linked the ten halls to facilitate easy movement.

The Silver Guard led Qi Sheng to one of the runic passages.

Suddenly, Qi Sheng called out, “Wait.”

The Silver Guard looked at Qi Sheng in confusion. “What are your orders, Commander?”

“I have a few questions that I need you to answer honestly,” Qi Sheng said.

“I’m just an ordinary Silver Guard. I came to the Great Void from the black lotus domain 30 years ago. I don’t know any more than you do,” the Silver Guard said with a troubled expression.

Qi Sheng asked, “Was it really the Unholy One who killed Emperor Tu Wei?”

The Silver Guard was shocked. He looked to the left and the right. When he confirmed no one was around, he said, “Everyone says it was indeed the Unholy One who killed Emperor Tu Wei. However, this is the Great Void. The Unholy One is taboo here.”

“Do you know the name of the Unholy One?” Qi Sheng asked.

The Silver Guard shook his head, indicating that he did not know.

Qi Sheng asked again, “Dao Saint Jiang has yet to return?”

“Previously, he went out with Emperor Tu Wei when Emperor Tu Wei met with a disaster. Hence, we still don’t know if Dao Saint Jiang is dead or alive,” the Silver Guard replied.

Qi Sheng sighed helplessly. “Dao Saint Jiang is so pitiful.”

“Pardon?”

“It’s nothing. Let’s go.”

The Silver Guard no longer said anything. As the new Hall Commander of Tu Wei Hall, he thought it was normal that Qi Sheng asked these questions to understand the basic situation of Tu Wei Hall.

Xihe Hall.

When the blue-clad female attendant saw Qi Sheng and the silver-armored guard flew over from afar.

“Qi Sheng of Tu Wei Hall requests to see Holy Maiden Xihe,” Qi Sheng said.

The blue-clad female attendant bowed at Qi Sheng and said, “I’ll inform the Holy Maiden. Please wait.”

It did not take long before the blue-clad female attendant returned and said, “Please come in.”

Qi Sheng and the Silver Guard walked into Xihe Hall.

Xihe Hall was majestic and tall. It was so tall that the top could not be seen. The hall was surrounded by mountains, and the sky above it was clear and bright. The Primal Qi here was rich as well. It was like paradise.

The interior of Xihe Hall was simple but elegant. It was mostly white, but it did not look sterile and cold. Instead, it looked rather warm.

Qi Sheng saw the elegant and dignified Lan Xihe standing calmly, waiting for him. He said, “Tu Wei Hall’s Qi Sheng greets the Holy Maiden.”

Lan Xihe said expressionlessly, “I heard that Tu Wei Hall has a new commander of the Silver Guards. It’s you?”

“Yes,” Qi Sheng replied.

With an air of superiority, Lan Xihe asked, “Why are you here?”

Qi Sheng replied, “Since I’m the new Hall Commander of Tu Wei Hall, it’s my duty to understand the ten halls and get to know everyone.”

Lan Xihe studied the man in front of her for a moment before she said, “Didn’t you join the Great Void about 30 years ago? After such a long time, you finally remembered to understand the ten halls and get to know everyone?”

“In the past, I didn’t have the qualifications nor the ability to do such a thing,” Qi Sheng said.

Lan Xihe scoffed. “So you think you’re qualified and capable now? I’m afraid you’ve overestimated yourself.”

Qi Sheng could clearly sense Lan Xihe’s hostility toward him. However, he was not angry. Instead, he said with a smile, “Why do you say that?”

“You’ve been in Tu Wei Hall for 30 years so you should know what happened to Emperor Tu Wei and Dao Saint Jiang, right?”

Lan Xihe did not have a good impression of Tu Wei Hall and was repulsed by it. This naturally extended to Qi Sheng even if he had just joined Tu Wei Hall not long ago.

“Of course, I know,” Qi Sheng said with a smile.

“Aren’t you afraid of making the same mistakes as them?”

Qi Sheng said, “I’m not afraid of making mistakes. However, I’m afraid of the fear of making mistakes preventing me from moving forward.”

Lan Xihe laughed. Then, she asked, “Do you know your responsibility?”

“Responsibility?”

“Every Hall Commander is a future Hall Master. They also have the highest chances of becoming supreme beings in the future. Once you become a supreme being, you’ll have countless responsibilities.”

“Such as maintaining the balance of the world and guarding the Pillars of Destruction?” Qi Sheng asked.

“Something like that,” Lan Xihe replied. A hint of uncertainty could be heard in her voice when she spoke. After so many years, she truly did not know what her purpose was either.

Seeing that Qi Sheng did not speak, Lan Xihe asked again, “Don’t you agree?”

“Dunzang’s Pillar of Destruction has already collapsed. The remaining nine pillars will collapse sooner or later. When that time comes, what are our responsibilities?” Qi Sheng asked. His words were rather shocking.

Lan Xihe frowned slightly. This topic was taboo in the Great Void. She did not expect the newcomer in front of her to be so bold. If it were in the past, she would have ordered him to leave. However, after the collapse of Dunzang’s Pillar of Destruction, she had grown curious about this matter.

“It’s only a matter of time before the others collapse?” Lan Xihe asked, feigning a confused expression.

Qi Sheng said, “In fact, you already have an answer in your heart, right? Why are you still lying to yourself? The Pillars of Destruction are crumbling from age. They’re relying on the restorative power of the earth to remain standing.”

“Even if they’re going to collapse sooner or later, we still have to do our parts until then,” Lan Xihe said.

“The Holy Maiden is right,” Qi Sheng said. After a pause, he asked, “Have you been to the Unknown Land?”

“Of course,” Lan Xihe replied.

“I’ve been there as well. His Majesty, the White Emperor, once took me to the ten Pillars of Destruction,” Qi Sheng said.

“That’s nothing to show off,” Lan Xihe said with a frown. She felt that the young man in front of her was quite superficial. Moreover, not only had she been to the Unknown Land, but she had gone there often.

Qi Sheng smiled indifferently and asked, “Don’t you think the Unknown Land is too dark?”

“Too dark?”
