Lu Zhou kept his eyes on Fan Xiuwen . When he heard the news, he said calmly, “How unfortunate . ” After he finished speaking, he turned around and left .
The door closed again, plunging the room into darkness .
In the pitch-dark room, Fan Xiuwen’s eyes flickered with a faint bluish glow again . However, it only lasted a second before it disappeared .
Lu Zhou walked out of the north pavilion and saw a flustered Little Yuan’er . “Master, quick, quick, quick… Fifth Senior Sister is going mad!”
Lu Zhou shook his head . His expression remained the same as he said, “There’s no need to panic . ”
The two of them walked to the Cave of Reflection that was located behind the mountain . When they arrived at the Cave of Reflection, many Derived Moon Palace’s female cultivators were already gathered there . Even Hua Wudao was watching nearby .
Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng stood at the entrance like guardian deities .
Hua Wudao said with a sigh, “I didn’t think there’s such an evil technique in this world… To think it’s witchcraft . ”
Mingshi Yin asked, “Elder Hua, can you help her?”
Hua Wudao shook his head and said, “I’m afraid the Pavilion Master is the only person who can undo this spell . ”
As soon as Hua Wudao finished speaking, the Derived Moon Palace’s female cultivators bowed in unison . “Pavilion Master . ”
Hua Wudao hastily turned around . He put his pride away and said, “Pavilion Master . ”
“There’s no need for formalities . ” Lu Zhou waved his hand and walked into the Cave of Reflection with his hands on his back .
Zhao Yue was behaving like a madwoman at the moment . She was repeatedly running into the walls of the cave .
Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng had covered the walls with a gentle energy to prevent her from fatally hurting herself . However, before they arrived, Zhao Yue had already managed to bruise her face swollen, and her hair was a complete mess . Between her eyes, the scarlet lotus was glowing with increasing intensity .
“Master, Fifth Junior Sister is being controlled by the witchcraft spell . Hurry up and do something about it, master!”
“Junior Sister Zhao Yue’s crime isn’t worth the loss of her life . Please have mercy, master!”
Lu Zhou looked around him and said, “She brought this upon herself . ” If she had obediently stayed on Golden Court Mountain, she would not have been afflicted by this witchcraft spell .
Zhao Yue was delirious . She had a murderous look on her face as she spouted nonsensical words to everyone she saw .
“I’m going to kill you . ”
“I’ll kill you!”
“Kill! Kill!”
Zhao Yue lunged toward Lu Zhou . Although her cultivation base had been sealed, Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng, naturally, still would not let her do anything to their master .
Two vines grew out of the ground and bound Zhao Yue . Mingshi Yin bowed and said, “Fifth Junior Sister is delirious and spouting words that are not her own . She must be under the influence of the peculiar witchcraft spell . I’ve asked Pan Zhong, and he told me the spellcaster is the only one who can break the spell . ” He sighed before he said, “Otherwise… In any case, I don’t believe it . Master, please do something!”
“Where’s Pan Zhong?”
“He’s in the south pavilion, looking up something in the books,” a female cultivator answered from outside the cave .
Hua Wudao said, “Pan Zhong’s not wrong . This spell is extremely evil . It muddles the heart and is capable of turning her into a puppet . Fortunately, Zhao Yue has an amazing fortitude and a stable cultivation base . It must not be easy for her to hold on until now . ”
Lu Zhou frowned slightly . He looked at Zhao Yue who was in a frenzy . Her eyes were blank . He barked, “The audacity!” He struck Zhao Yue’s shoulder with his palm . With his Brahman Sea Eight Meridians cultivation base, the others did not suspect anything when his Primal Qi surged . Instead, their attention focused on Zhao Yue . They looked nervous, clearly worried about her .
Lu Zhou had already injected some of his Primal Qi into Zhao Yue’s meridians . Her eight extraordinary meridians were under the witchcraft power’s complete control . Unlike Mingshi Yin, Zhao Yue’s entire body was filled with witchcraft power! It launched itself at Lu Zhou’s Primal Qi at the first moment .
“Hm?” Lu Zhou’s Brahman Sea Eight Meridians cultivation base seemed extremely weak at this juncture . The Primal Qi he had just released was completely devoured by the witchcraft power . The witchcraft power flowed along her meridians and pushed its way toward Lu Zhou’s palm .
Zhao Yue suddenly opened her eyes . She wore a peculiar smile on her face and said, “I finally found you, you old thing!”
“Break!” Lu Zhou barked and pushed . He was not sure if it was a product of his will or if it was due to the danger, he found himself in the state of comprehension when he was studying the Heavenly Writing . His mind was clear, and his heart was calm . The Heavenly Writing’s extraordinary power seemed to have activated as it swiftly converged in his palm . He felt as though he was holding a block of ice .
Bang!
Zhao Yue flew backward from the impact .
Mingshi Yin’s energy cushioned her crash on the stone wall .
Zhao Yue spat out a mouthful of fresh blood . At the same time, the lotus on her forehead disappeared . She fell to her knees and supported her weight with her hands . She struggled for a moment to lift her head before revealing a strange smile on her face . She said to Lu Zhou, “You win this time, old thing . ”
Thud!
Zhao Yue slumped to the ground immediately .
The Cave of Reflection was silent .
Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng wondered if they should help Zhao Yue up . After all, she seemed to be cursing their master just a second ago . They were worried the old man would be angered by this .
Lu Zhou said indifferently, “Bring her to the south pavilion . ”
“Understood!” Mingshi Yin hastily carried Zhao Yue away .
The lotus on Zhao Yue’s forehead had indeed faded away . At the same time, her Primal Qi was circulating of its own accord .
Mingshi Yin was overjoyed . He said, “Master, I think the spell on Junior Sister is broken!”
Outside the Cave of Reflection, the people cheered loudly .
The female cultivators’ wore an expression of awe on their faces .
Hua Wudao said with a shocked expression, “To think that the Pavilion Master is capable of breaking such an evil spell! My horizons have truly widened!”
At this moment, Pan Zhong came running with a stack of books in his hands . He cried out, “I found it! I found it! Everything that has anything to do with the spell is right here!”
Pan Zhong came to a halt and looked around him . “Uh… is she alright now?”
Everyone else rolled their eyes .
‘The sun would have set a long time ago if we waited for you . ’
Zhao Yue was brought to the south pavilion by two female cultivators .
Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng walked up to Lu Zhou .
“Master, was Junior Sister Zhao Yue being controlled earlier?” Mingshi Yin asked with a lingering fear in his voice .
“Her heart was controlled by witchcraft . ”
Hua Wudao walked up to them slowly . He cupped his fists slightly at Lu Zhou .
Lu Zhou asked calmly, “Do you have something to say, Elder Hua?”
“The spell on Zhao Yue has been lifted . I think that person won’t be making any moves in the near future . When the spell is broken, if the spellcaster attempts to control the target again, but they’ll be hit by the recoil . ”
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, “Elder Hua, do you know anything about this person?”
Hua Wudao heaved a long sigh and said, “I’ve only heard stories about this person . ”
“I’m genuinely curious . You would rather stay here than rat out the Second Prince . Are you really doing this to keep the peace in Great Yan?” Lu Zhou asked as he stared at Hua Wudao intently .
“Uh…” Hua Wudao’s expression froze for a moment before he shook his head and said, “I’m afraid only the sect master and the Second Prince knows about this . ”
Lu Zhou glanced at him and said, “So, the Yun Sect really has a dirty deal with the Imperial Family . ”
“…” Hua Wudao’s wizened flushed red from embarrassment .
Lu Zhou said to Little Yuan’er, “Send word to Jiang Aijian . Tell him that the nice sword I’m giving him is worth the trouble of him coming here to retrieve it . ”
‘Jiang Aijian?’ Hua Wudao found the name familiar . Jiang Aijian was a skilled swordsman, but even then, he was only a third-rate character in the cultivation world . Why would the Evil Sky Pavilion value him?
