My Disciples Are All Villains-Chapter 1781 - Li Lun’s Outcome (2)
Ying Long changed into its human form and appeared in front of Sikong Beichen and Nie Qingyun.
Sikong Beichen was stunned. Faced with the legendary dragon, he could not help but feel wary. Nonetheless, he said, “Thank you, dragon…”
Sikong Beichen trailed off, unsure of how to address the other party. In order to show respect, he did not dare to stare at Ying Long for too long.
Ying Long did not mind. Instead, he said rather proudly, “It’s just a small matter. I was entrusted by someone to protect your safety.”
“Thank you,” Sikong Beichen said.
Ying Long looked at the cultivators on the city wall who were drenched in blood and sighed. “To think that the weak humans are able to withstand such a crazy attack. It’s not for no reason that humans are able to survive for so long.”
Sikong Beichen straightened his back before he looked at Ying Long and said, “Humans and dragons are all living things. All living things are equal. Some are weak while some are strong.”
If it were in the past, Ying Long would not have listened to these words. Dragons were proud to their bones; how could they be equal to humans? However, he was different now. Moreover, with the Unholy One by his side, he had to tamp down his temper as well. Hence, he nodded in response and looked into the distance.
In the dark forest, a dark light that was shrouded in dark fog appeared. Whenever the dark fog swept past, the fierce beasts would bare their fangs and brandish their claws, looking as though they had been overcome by bloodlust. Then, they all began to attack the humans again.
“Again?” Sikong Beichen’s expression was grim.
Nie Qingyun said, “These fierce beasts look like they’ve lost their minds. They’re not afraid of death at all. Didn’t they say fierce beasts are intelligent? There are so many of them, but not even one looks smart…”
Ying Long coughed lightly.
With that, Sikong Beichen and Nie Qingyun did not continue the conversation anymore.
In fact, Ying Long did not take the duo’s words to heart. In his opinion, dragons were neither human nor fierce beasts. They were an independent species. At this time, he said, “Indeed, it’s the Locust Ghost, Li Lun. It’s very good at hiding, and it has a special ability. It’s very cunning as well. It brings chaos with it wherever it goes…”
“Locust Ghost, Li Lun?”
Sikong Beichen and Nie Qingyun were clueless. They did not know about the fierce beast Ying Long mentioned.
After a moment, Sikong Beichen cupped his fists together and said, “Lord Ying Long, please help us kill that beast to protect the people!”
Ying Long turned to look at the sincere Sikong Beichen. He nodded in satisfaction and said, “Of course. Since I’m here, I won’t stand aside and do nothing.”
The duo thanked Ying Long again.
Ying Long’s eyes glowed as he scanned the forest that stretched for miles, trying to find Li Lun. Alas, he could not find Li Lun. Although the remnant ancient Saint slayer’s combat strength was not particularly strong, its cunningness was rather extraordinary.
If they could not find Li Lun and kill it, the fierce beasts would continue to attack the humans.
Finally, Ying Long used a little Primal Qi and called out, “Unholy One!”
‘Unholy One?’
Sikong Beichen and Nie Qingyun frowned in confusion.
While the duo was still trying to figure it out, Lu Zhou flew over on Whitzards’s back.
Ever since Lu Zhou left, Sikong Beichen and Nie Qingyun did not forget Lu Zhou or his appearance. They missed the days in the past when they discussed cultivation with him. They also remembered Whitzard.
“Brother Lu?” Sikong Beichen was pleasantly surprised.
“So, it’s Senior Lu!” Nie Qingyun said happily.
The duo had a good relationship with Lu Zhou in the past so they continued to address him the way they did before.
On the other hand, Ying Long was slightly surprised that they knew each other.
Lu Zhou hovered in the air. He looked at the duo and said tonelessly, “Sikong Beichen, Nie Qingyun?As it turns out, you’re here…”
Sikong Beichen laughed and said, “Time flies. We haven’t seen each other for hundredsof years. Brother Lu, you’re the same as before, but your bearing is even more magnificent! If you have time, do you want to come to the Ninth Temple for a chat?”
Lu Zhou nodded. “Very well. However, right now, I still have a lot of important matters to attend to. If we don’t deal with the fierce beasts, the world won’t be at peace.”
Nie Qingyun said, “Senior, you’re truly benevolent…”
Lu Zhou said, “I’m not benevolent. My granddisciple, Li Yunzheng, is the emperor of Great Tang, after all. If something happens to Little Yunzheng, how can I stand aside and watch?”
The duo sighed emotionally.
It was a pity Li Yunzheng was not around to hear these words. One could not imagine how he would feel if he had heard these words.
At this time, Sikong Beichen asked, “It’s been a long time since we last met. I wonder what Brother Lu’s cultivation is like now?”
Lu Zhou only smiled and did not say anything.
On the contrary, Ying Long could no longer hold back. Seeing that Sikong Beichen addressed the Unholy One as ‘Brother’, he could not help but ask Sikong Beichen in a hushed voice, “Who are you?”
Sikong Beichen replied humbly, “I’m just a junior who’s not worth remembering. I’m the Temple Master of the Ninth Temple.”
Compared to the lifespans of dragons, human lives were truly short. Hence, it was accurate for Sikong Beichen to refer to himself as a junior.
Ying Long continued to ask curiously in a low voice, “Based on your words, your relationship with the Unholy One doesn’t seem to be shallow. There’s no need to hide. Tell me what kind of high position you have…”
“No, no, no… It’s not like that at all” Sikong Beichen said hurriedly and humbly.
Upon seeing this, Ying Long also hurriedly said, “No, no, no. I’m not good at communicating with humans. Please forgive me if I’ve been rude.”
The duo bowed at each other, looking as though they were competing to see who could bow lower.
Lu Zhou was puzzled. ‘What’s wrong with them?’
Lu Zhou finally cleared his throat and asked, “Ying Long, did you see Li Lun earlier?”
Ying Long stopped bowing at Sikong Beichen and pointed at the forest about 3,000 feet to the left and said, “Over there.”
“I’ll leave the other fierce beasts to you. Leave Li Lun to me,” Lu Zhou said lightly.
Upon hearing this, Sikong Beichen said, “Brother Lu, be careful. That fierce beast isn’t simple.”
Lu Zhou did not respond. He tapped his toes lightly on Whitzard’s back and flashed away. In just a blink of an eye, he arrived high up in the sky. Then, he brought the Golden Taixu Mirror out and shone it down.
Buzz!
The mirror shone like the sun in the sky, illuminating the land.
Then, the electric blue arcs from the divine Dao power swept out in all directions.
Upon seeing this, Ying Long said, filled with praise, “As expected of the Unholy One. He has all sorts of treasures…”
