My Disciples Are All Villains

Chapter 65: Enlightened Senior Monk?

Lu Zhou thought to himself that the monk, Kong Xuan, was no pushover. As Kong Xuan retreated, he launched countless palm strikes that hit Lu Zhou’s massive Golden Body before they disappeared. He was not harmed nor was he affected. This was all the doing of the Impeccable Card! However, why did it manifest with a Buddhist Sect’s technique?

The monk, Kong Xuan, was in disbelief over what was happening. The small palm strike seemed to possess eyes as it pursued him. He had no choice but to move backward and retreat. His instincts told him that this small palm strike was dangerous.

The holy altar was wide; it spanned dozens of miles. Just when Kong Xuan thought he had succeeded in evading the palm strike, the palm strike suddenly grew in size in just a blink of an eye. As he retreated further, he could not shake off the feeling that something was amiss. As time went on, he noticed the palm strike grew bigger and bigger. At this time, the size of the palm was taller than a man. A hint of desperation grew in his heart as he continued to retreat, his survival instinct kicking in.

When the palm strike was just a hairbreadth away from Kong Xuan’s face, it enlarged by several times again. Due to this, he had difficulty dodging the attack. The palm strike closed in on him as though it knew he was going to unleash some technique.

Currently, the size of the palm strike was extremely huge. Its size was indescribable. It was like an extra-large version of the Great Vajra Wheel Hand Sign!

Meanwhile, back at the holy altar’s portico, Zhao Yue finally managed to open her eyes now that the Brahman Lullaby had somewhat died down. When she saw the shocking scene before her eyes, she mumbled before fainting again, “Ma...master?”

Boom!

The extra-large Great Vajra Wheel Hand Sign landed on Kong Xuan as though he was a fly that was being swatted. Soon after, the hand seal vanished, and Kong Xuan had been reduced to dust!

As soon as the monk, Kong Xuan, disappeared, the chanting of the Brahman Lullaby ended abruptly, and the monks around the holy altar fell. At the same time, the Temple of Great Emptiness’ flying chariot that was hovering in the air tottered perilously. The monks strained themselves to support it and slow its descent.

Silence descended on the holy altar.

Lu Zhou’s Buddha Golden Body that was 100 feet tall disappeared at this moment.

Everything happened in ten seconds. It was neither too long nor too short. However, for the cultivators of the Noble and Fiend Paths, every single second seemed as long as a year.

Currently, every cultivator’s attention was focused on Lu Zhou. This old man managed to defeat Kong Xuan with just a single strike. The old man stroked his beard in a leisurely manner as though it was a lovely day to be taking a walk. A question appeared in everyone’s minds at this moment. ‘Who’s this cultivator who unleashed such a powerful Great Vajra Wheel Hand Sign? Is he another enlightened senior monk from some Buddhist Sect?!’

Meanwhile, Lu Zhou was lost in thought, calculating the results. He decided to pursue the matter of merit points and rewards later. After that, he surveyed his surroundings. Most of the cultivators were currently unable to fight.

The plans of the heavens superseded that of man. Nobody expected Kong Xuan would use the Brahman Lullaby on everyone.

However, this was inconsequential to Lu Zhou now. The Deadly Strike Card and Impeccable Card he had used had a powerful intimidating effect. At this moment, nobody would risk attacking him. He did not expect this as well. He continued to survey his surroundings as he stroked his beard. His eyes took in the expressions of shock and reverence on everyone’s faces. In the end, he settled his gaze on the Fiend Temple’s Third Seat, Duan Xing. He paid more attention to Duan Xing since if there were anyone who was still capable of fighting, it would be Duan Xing. He wondered if Duan Xing would take the risk and attack him?

A hint of reverence and respect for the strong could be seen in Duan Xing’s eyes at this moment. After a long silence, he slowly rose to his feet before cupping his hands together at Lu Zhou. “This junior from Fiend Temple, Duan Xing, thanks the master for his aid!”

The expression on Lu Zhou’s old face was calm. He had expected this reaction. The two techniques he had unleashed were a Buddhist Sect’s techniques. Individuals who did not cultivate in the Zen Sect would find it difficult to attain such a cultivation base. Even the elite cultivators, Zuo Xinchan, cultivated the Fiend Zen for a long time and endured countless hardships before attaining the Four-leaf avatar. Zuo Xinchan was also the only person to have achieved that in a century. Even he did not expect that he would be able to unleash that zen mark.

The cultivators from the Righteous Sect cupped their fists together and said in unison, “Thank you, master!”

The people of the Clarity Sect followed suit. “Thank you, master!”

In their eyes, Lu Sheng was an enlightened senior monk who had withdrawn from the secular world and did not interfere with worldly affairs.

Lu Zhou decided to play along with everyone’s misunderstanding of his identity. He raised his hand and said loudly, “The Buddhist Sects value mercy above all else. I’m greatly distressed to have killed one of my own kin today, but I had no choice.”

Upon hearing this, the cultivators from the Noble Path gave him a thumbs-up. In their opinion, Lu Zhou’s behavior was befitting of a senior monk.

“There’s no need to concern yourself about this, master. Kong Xuan was despicable and shameless. He intended to kill all of us with the Brahman Lullaby and take the Holy Daughter away! This outcome is to everyone’s satisfaction!”

“A person like Kong Xuan doesn’t deserve to be a disciple of a Buddhist Sect. Master, you’re doing all Buddhist Sects justice by killing that man. You’re truly an enlightened senior monk! Compared to those sanctimonious bald... Well, you’re 10,000 times better than them!” A Righteous Sect’s cultivator who had spoken up suddenly made a sharp turn halfway through his speech. It did not seem appropriate to refer to monks as bald donkeys in front of this master. His heart raced in his chest when he thought about his transgression.

However, Lu Zhou remained indifferent. It seemed he did not mind the others referring to monks as bald monkeys.

At this moment, a Clarity Sect’s cultivator cupped his hands together and said, “If it weren’t for you, master, all of us would’ve died! Master, you have such a profound cultivation base, I wonder what brings you to the holy altar today?”

Lu Zhou gave that person a glance and replied, “I was just passing by.”

“I see. I heard that senior monks who cultivated with their hair like to travel the world and regard the four corners of the world as their home. I’m truly blessed for three lifetimes to have met you today, master!”

Each cultivator was better at flattery than the last one.

Many of the cultivators slowly got on their feet with labored movements.

On the other hand, the monks had been under immense pressure before this. The sudden disruption of the incantation did not do them any good as well. They were panting heavily as they sat on the ground. With a Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm’s cultivator such as Duan Xing here, there was no need to fear the remaining monks. These monks did not even dare to take a single step toward him.

Lu Zhou knew that he could not stay any longer. He cast a glance in Little Yuan’er’s direction. It seemed like Little Yuan’er was... sound asleep? ‘This little girl! How carefree is she? How can she fall asleep with all the commotion around her? This won’t do, I’ll have to re-educate her!’

However, this was not the time to be disciplining Little Yuan’er so he had no choice but to let it slide for now. He called out softly, “Yuan’er!”

Little Yuan’er’s body trembled for a moment before she finally woke up. She rose to her feet immediately. “Ma...master?”

“Impudent!” Lu Zhou glared at her.

Little Yuan’er quickly moved to Lu Zhou’s side. An aggrieved expression appeared on her face after she was reproached.

Upon seeing this, someone asked, “Master, I see you have a female disciple... Is your Buddhist Sect so liberal that it’s even accepting female disciples now?”

“...” Lu Zhou was worried more and more questions he had no answers to would come if he stayed any longer. Who knew if he had to use another item card at that time? It would be a great loss to him if that were to happen. The others were still in a daze as he looked at the unconscious Zhao Yue. He said clearly, “Go get her.”

“Mhm.” Little Yuan’er leaped toward Zhao Yue immediately.

Upon seeing this, a shocked expression appeared on the cultivators’ faces.

“Master... what’re you doing?”

“Master, you can’t take her away!”

‘Are they trying to stop me?’ Lu Zhou’s eyes swept across the cultivators, and they fell silent immediately.

“Did you think Kong Xuan was acting alone when he boldly attacked this venue?”

Everyone was stunned when they heard Lu Zhou’s words. That was right. Although the monk, Kong Xuan, had a profound cultivation base, he would not have acted this way on his own. The Temple of Great Emptiness’s abbot, Kong Yuan, must have approved of Kong Xuan’s actions.

“Such scum is an embarrassment to Buddhist Sects!”

“Abbot Kong Yuan has cultivated for a century, and yet, he has ventured down the wrong path!” A cultivator said. After a while, he added, “If Kong Yuan comes, we ask you to defend us, master.”

Everyone quickly bowed at Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou shook his head and stroked his beard, remaining silent. His expression was indifferent as well. However, he thought to himself, ‘What does it have to do with me if Kong Yuan comes looking for trouble with all of you? What a joke! If I weren’t here today, all of you would’ve died!’
