Chapter 565: 0360 One Blade, One Monk, Two Dao, Two Six (4k)_2

Gongsun Ying, usually as gentle as a noble lady, became sharp-eyed, her eyes like those of a phoenix. Behind her, a ten-zhang wingspan white Heavenly Phoenix Qi Po solidified into form. The Great Grandmaster’s majesty swept over Ye Gao like a tsunami. Ye Gao’s face turned ashen, and his body instinctively trembled. His Master-level will, achieved through drug use, was so insignificant.

Lu Chenzhou inwardly sneered, this old man’s will was too weak, no wonder he surrendered.

Back then, he faced the Heavenly King’s domineering air and still remained unfazed... even though the Northern Guardian King used only a trace of it.

Gongsun Ying spoke coldly: "Just confess everything, at least you might save some innocent members of the Ye family, right? Think about Ye Chen."

Upon hearing about his grandson, Ye Gao’s expression changed; this was the pride of the Ye family, a talent with Low Class root bone insight, comparable to Martial Arts geniuses.

Ye Gao struggled for a moment, and finally said in a dejected manner: "I am a Minister of the Heart Happiness Sect..."

Lu Chenzhou listened quietly alongside, his eyes growing more furious, wishing he could kill the old man on the spot.

"Did you leak Li Yu’s whereabouts to the Ancient Divine Church?"

"A protector from the Ancient Divine Church knew I had connections and bought it from me."

"Who was it?"

"I don’t know, I only know they were from the Eternal Life Sect."

"The Eternal Life Sect?"

In the corner, Wang Xian, who had been silent, frowned, it seemed that the one who chose Li Yao as the Holy Daughter was the Master of the Deer.

Lu Chenzhou’s mind also recalled the eerie giant deer, [Master of the Distant Mountains], the culprit behind the fall of the Desolate God·Qi Heng.

After the inquiry, Gongsun Ying asked: "Where is the branch address of the Ancient Divine Church?"

Ye Gao shook his head: "I don’t know, as a Minister, I am just a peripheral member. It’s always them contacting me, it’s one-way communication."

Gongsun Ying ordered someone to take Ye Gao away.

Outside the door, Li Gui looked at the escorted Ye Gao, filled with silent rage, he punched him flying, the old man crashed onto the ground, breaking several ribs. "Damn you!" His eyes blood-red, like a Fierce Tiger, he lunged forward, kicking and punching Ye Gao. Lu Chenzhou did not stop him, merely watching coldly.

Ultimately, Ye Gao was left barely breathing.

He remained silent, just enduring.

At this point, he only hoped not to involve Ye Chen.

"Come, take medicine."

Li Gui fed Ye Gao a precious Rejuvenation Pill, saving him from the brink once more.

He turned around, looking dejectedly towards the head of the Inspection Department:

"Sorry, I couldn’t help it."

"No problem, as long as he doesn’t die, we’ll see if we can extract more information."

Li Gui calmed himself, then looked at Lu Chenzhou, saying:

"Thanks, Chenzhou, given my qualifications, it was very hard to enter the Lamp Master Guard."

"No problem, Teacher should go back and rest first."

...

Wudang Mountain.

Hong Tianxiang’s Candle Dragon Order lit up on his chest, projecting a scene:

In the picture, a black-armored towering figure shattered the Cloud Mist Clothes with one palm, sending Su City’s Ye Gao flying.

"A single palm shattered the Cloud Mist Clothes, still holding back."

...

Dragon and Tiger Mountain.

Zhang Lingmiao’s eyes flowed with purple Qi, replaying the Candle Dragon Order projection over and over.

"Looks like he has also Breakthrough Third."

...

On this day, Lu Xuanjian, Wu Wang, Xuan Kong, three realms talents, all serving as Lamp Masters, witnessed this shocking scene.

As the first case established by the Lamp Holders, over three hundred Lamp Holders were secretly observing the battle.

Martial Arts Department, the Northern Guardian King turned off the projection: "For those who surrender, death is not regrettable!"

...

The following day.

Lu Chenzhou’s Candle Fire Order surfaced at his chest, igniting five candle fires on its surface.

[Candle Fire: 5]

"Finally opened for business."

He put away the token, opened the door, and Zhou Ruoxue walked in, clasping her fists and saying: "Thank you, Brother Lu!"

Bai Miaomiao followed closely behind, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Lu, for taking us in!"

The requirement for a Lamp Holder is at least a Breakthrough Third Realm, and Lu Chenzhou managed to catch the last train.

The cultivation of the two women is still slightly below, so they can only serve as Lamp Master Guards, but they can also earn considerable battle merit through tasks.

The year-end assessment selects the elite, who can also receive rewards from the Martial Arts Department.

Moreover, all Lamp Master Guards are potential Lamp Holders, and once a position becomes available in the future, they can advance, but it requires competition with many others. In fact, Lamp Holders at their Martial Arts University had also extended an olive branch. But upon receiving an invitation from Lu Chenzhou, they chose to "venture out," joining Brother Lu.

The Lamp Holders at their school were older, not quite of the same generation, and didn’t play together, so it’s more comfortable being with Brother Lu.

Lu Chenzhou smiled and said: "You two can temporarily reside in Su City; the school has arranged villas for you."

Next, he plans to invite Teacher Chen Jiu, Ye Zhiqiu, Zhao Yunzong, Yang Tian, and others who he gets along with.

He aims to build the strongest team of Lamp Holders in Da Xia.

After the two women left, Wang Xian arrived, carrying a box in his palm.

"Junior Brother, this is an additional reward from the headquarters for you."

Lu Chenzhou opened it and saw it was filled with golden fruits.

"Spirit Fruits?"

"Yes, these were seized from Ye Gao. The old chap cared deeply for Ye Chen, constantly thinking of gifting them to his grandson."

"How is Ye Chen? Is he aware of this matter?"

"He knows, in fact, the tip-off we received was actually provided by Ye Chen... He knew about it for some time, but faced with family ties, he didn’t know how to decide, likely guided by some wise advice, he ultimately chose to report it truthfully, in exchange for the Lamp Master Department’s trust and a lighter punishment."

"Ye Chen had no involvement in Ye Gao’s affairs, did he?"

"No, he is solely focused on martial arts, with a very resolute will. The Lamp Master Department did not deal with Ye Chen, but instead rewarded him with a Xuan Grade Treasure to aid his Breakthrough Second Realm."

"That’s good... Ye Brother is indeed worthy, my judgment in choosing friends is not wrong."

Lu Chenzhou breathed a sigh of relief.

Certainly, from another perspective, Ye Chen’s decisive act of valuing righteousness over family is also commendable, and he is bound to achieve greatness in the future.

After all, Ye Gao’s care for Ye Chen was genuine.

After the senior brother left, Lu Chenzhou refined the Spirit Fruit.

A wisp of blazing Innate Spirit Treasure Qi merged into the Golden Core in the lower Dantian and was absorbed by the Golden Crow Treasure Qi.

[Five Elements Mixed Qi Technique: Second Layer (20%) → Second Layer (30%)]

"Xuan Grade Treasure Qi can enhance by 10%. Next, I need to freeload some other attributes of Five Elements Treasure Qi to advance to Quasi Earth-grade."

Currently, his fire qi is quite strong and cannot be enhanced further; he needs water qi to balance and ensure the balance of the Five Elements.

Having completed the tedious tasks, Lu Chenzhou took stock of the gains from killing the Little Demon King.

The Little Demon King’s corpse was handed over to the military, exchanged for 10,000 battle merits.

Besides that, there were seven items of decent quality demon weapons and armor found on the Little Demon King — one piece of armor and six weapons.

Demon weapons are similar to war soldiers, generally decent quality but good material.

Lu Chenzhou turned them all in, also exchanged for 10,000 battle merits.

"The head of this Little Demon King is truly valuable, far exceeding my tiring tower climbing efforts."

His current battle merit balance already amounts to more than 200,000.

After Breakthrough Third, the cultivation medicine needs updating as well.

Firstly, the Earth Spirit Breaking Body Pills, one costs 2,000 Great Merit, requiring 60 pills a year; fortunately, he has accumulated achievements from school, no need to worry.

Secondly, the Dragon Marrow Pills, one costs 500 battle merits, needing approximately 120 pills a year, requiring 60,000 battle merits.

The Dragon Marrow Pill is expensive but can speed up the transformation of True Qi into True Gang, allowing him to pass through this transition period early.

Lu Chenzhou isn’t lacking in money, consuming pills daily. The cultivation progress in "Lu Wu Demonic Cleansing Scripture" is also advancing at an astonishing pace.

A week later, he’s progressed to the Second Layer.

The time moved into March.

[Lu Wu Demonic Cleansing Scripture: Third Layer (1%)]

Lu Chenzhou felt the slight improvement in Qi-Blood within, and smiled.

"The breakthrough speed far exceeds expectations... The Divine Seed of Tiger Demon Tai Sui is indeed effective."

In the Qi Sea, the flame-like True Qi, originally like a nebula, was compressed along with the operation of Inner Strength, condensed into droplets of golden dew, forming streams from gathered water — this golden stream is True Gang. Once the True Qi fully transforms into liquid energy, he will officially become a True Gang Martial Arts Master, then proceed with weaving techniques [Cloud Mist Clothes].
