My Disciples Are All Villains Chapter 396 – I’m An Idol Too?

Chapter 396: I’m An Idol Too?

Judging by the man’s mannerism, he seemed to have experienced many things. Lu Zhou stroked his beard and looked at the man.

The man added, “Many elites of the Nether Sect have appeared in Liang Province city… I’ve never been afraid of them. Why would I be afraid of you? Little girl, your master should proceed with the test.” He passed her the gemstone.

Little Yuan’er looked at the gemstone. She found it interesting and said, “I want to get tested, too. I have a profound cultivation base!”

This gemstone was quite precious. A mid-grade gemstone’s energy would be depleted once it was used eight to ten times. Also, cultivators could rarely fake the results of the tests done by these gemstones.

The man said, “The old mister first.”

Lu Zhou waved his arm. The gemstone flew into his hand. The gemstone buzzed and shone.

A look of shock flashed past the man’s eyes as he said, “Oh, it’s the Divine Court realm. Forgive me for being blind to this.” He was polite enough in all appearances, but his expression remained neutral. It could be mistaken as him being sarcastic. ‘Ooh, what a profound cultivation base. I’m truly scared.’

In any case, a Divine Court realm cultivator was still not someone whom others could easily cross.

He retrieved the gemstone, looked at Little Yuan’er at the side, and said, “This way, please.”

Little Yuan’er was puzzled by this as she asked, “What about me? I’m not tested yet.”

However, the man ignored her. He turned around and left. When he turned around the corner, there was a grin on the man’s lips. ‘If your master is in the Divine Court realm, how profound can your cultivation base be, little girl? You unruly and headstrong girl, you want me to test you, but I won’t give in to your request. Tonight, I’ll show the two of you just how evil men can be. Moreover, there’s no need to waste the gemstone’s energy.’

Little Yuan’er stomped her foot angrily and said, “Master, they’re looking down on us.”

Lu Zhou said, “It makes no difference whether we’re tested or not…”

“Oh.”

Shen Luangshou was at the top of the whitelist. He did every good deed imaginable. However, Lu Zhou was still surprised to see him boldly remaining in Liang Province. It seemed like Shen Luangshou was not even afraid of the Nether Sect.

…

At dusk.

Little Yuan’er supported her chin with her hands and leaned on the table. She stared at a mosquito flying before her eyes. She raised a hand and shot a needle-like energy blade to kill it.

Whoosh!

The mosquito was sliced in half.

She giggled. “Master, master… I killed a mosquito with my energy blade!”

Lu Zhou opened his eyes to glance at her. Then, he shook his head helplessly. However, he did not reprimand her. After all, this was one of her daily methods of cultivation.

That was how strange people were at times. Some would do all they could to work hard and learn but would never be good at it. Some people would only need to take a single glance and would learn everything. Little Yuan’er probably belonged to the latter group.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Someone knocked on the door.

“I’ll get it.” Little Yuan’er ran up to the door and answered it.

A middle-aged man in long gray robes entered the room. He swept his gaze across the room. He glanced at Little Yuan’er. He did not greet them at all and only muttered to himself as he nodded, “Not bad.”

There was another man behind him. He was the one who wanted to test their cultivation bases earlier. The man said, “If you think they’re good, Mister Zhou, then, they’re good.”

“Who are you?” Little Yuan’er asked.

“This is Steward Zhou. He oversees the operations of the villa. I’ll be taking my leave now. Have a nice chat.” The man turned around and left.

Steward Zhou cupped his fists at Lu Zhou. “Old mister.”

Lu Zhou looked at Steward Zhou and asked, “Where’s Shen Liangshou?”

Steward Zhou frowned. He mused inwardly, ‘Master Shen is at the top of the whitelist. It’s normal for outsiders to know about him, given his reputation.’ However, he did find the old man slightly rude for addressing his master by his name. He did not show any of his annoyance as he calmly asked, “Old mister, should we be direct?”

Lu Zhou stroked his beard with a nod and said, “What’s this about?”

“Your granddaughter is of good quality. My master is willing to buy her at a great price.” When Steward Zhou said this, there were men outside the room who could be faintly seen passing on messages.

Creak! Creak! Creak!

There were movements on the roof as well.

Clearly, they were being watched.

When Little Yuan’er heard this, she was just about to leap into rage when Lu Zhou raised his hand and signaled for her to stand down.

Little Yuan’er had no choice but to step back resentfully.

“Shen Liangshou is at the top of the whitelist… He has gotten to where he is today by doing good deeds. He has quite a reputation in the cultivation world as well. Why would he have a hand in these shady dealings?” Lu Zhou asked.

Steward Zhou laughed and said, “Old mister, I’m sure that you’re an experienced man as well. There’s no need to play dumb. Nothing is simple in the world. Do you think that we’d let you stay here for free?”

He had a point. If charity was all they did, even a mountain of gold and silver would not be enough.

“You’re right.”

“The lives of men are like straw, old mister… You’re only in the Divine Court realm. You’ll die by the hands of the Other Tribesmen sooner or later in Liang Province. Why don’t you allow this disciple of yours to go to someone better? You’ll be able to enjoy a comfortable retirement as well. Doesn’t that sound nice?” Steward Zhou asked persuasively.

Lu Zhou sighed and shook his head. “The utmost white is the same as the utmost black. I was surprised, that’s all.”

Steward Zhou chuckled and said, “Compared to the Evil Sky Pavilion, Master Shen merely chose a different path. Beasts live for food while men would die for wealth. They’re fundamentally the same.”

Lu Zhou sneered. “You mentioned Shen Liangshou in the same breath as the Evil Sky Pavilion? Do you think he’s worthy of that?”

“Of course not! Master Shen has always viewed the Evil Sky Pavilion’s Patriarch as his life’s goal… He won’t dare to claim equality with him,” Steward Zhou replied.

Lu Zhou felt slightly speechless now. ‘I’m an idol, too? To think that I have such a fan.’

Steward Zhou continued to say, “I’m telling you all this because you’re in the Divine Court realm. Liang Province is now going through an upheaval. The Nether Sect and the people from Lou Lan and Rouli are lying in wait all over the place. With your cultivation base, the most you can do is to preserve your own life.”

Lu Zhou nodded. “What if I refuse?”

As soon as Lu Zhou spoke…

Bam!

The doors were pushed open. Several cultivators came in. Two cultivators carried a corpse and flew in the other direction.

Lu Zhou glanced at them. He discovered they were not weak. Each of them was, at least, in the Brahman Sea realm.

Steward Zhou, who was standing before him, was in the Divine Court realm. His aura was also complete. Lu Zhou reckoned he was in the peak Divine Court realm.

Aside from these people, there must be Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm elites as well since this vast villa remained standing amidst the chaos.

Steward Zhou looked at them with a smile. “If you refuse, old mister, I’m afraid that I’ll have to take her by force.”

Lu Zhou shook his head. He waved his hand helplessly at Little Yuan’er…

“I commend you for your bravery.”

“Hm?”

Steward Zhou was a peak Divine Court realm expert, after all. He suddenly sensed an aura from the old man before him. It was a majestic aura that not even his master possessed. He moved backward at once and circulated his Primal Qi. He was just about to make a move when Little Yuan’er was already upon him.

She was smiling. It seemed like she did not even use her energy.

“We’re wrong! She’s a Nascent Divinity Tribulation elite!” Steward Zhou exclaimed in surprise.

With this, the cultivators outside rushed toward them.

Bam!

Before Steward Zhou could get a good look, Little Yuan’er landed a kick on his chest. Her leg shot up. Like a cannonball, Steward Zhou was launched into the air, crashed through the ceiling, and rammed into the two cultivators on the roof. A hole appeared on the ceiling, and he fell back down through the hole.

Bam!

He fell before Little Yuan’er. He was sprawled on the floor and could not move at all.

Little Yuan’er was bored. She muttered, “So weak.”
