The Disciples I Raised Are All Villains – Chapter 604

With the addition of the female cultivators, the speed at which a large number of disciples from the Star-Shifting Pavilion were brought back to the underground palace was something Qin Gou and the others couldn’t have matched even with a horse race.
Soon, not only Qin Yuan and Ao Banwei, but also the group of female cultivators who followed Shangguan Ju, whom Qin Gou was quite familiar with, appeared in the returning main force.
Among them, a triumphant young girl with the loudest voice and a striking presence, hands on her hips, chattered incessantly, “Look, you all wrongly accused and slandered the executive elder before, and now you have to obediently rely on the executive elder for protection? Ha, what a bunch of big idiots, big fools!”
Shangguan Ju wanted to cry but had no tears, saying, “Little fool, shut up.”
“Oh…” Hu Rong’er instantly quieted down, but she still felt she wasn’t foolish at all, because without even thinking, she could easily guess that Elder Shangguan was definitely scolding her.
Shangguan Ju then came to Qin Gou’s side, full of admiration, “Fellow Daoist Qingyue, thanks to you this time, you were able to find such a good place to take shelter.”
“It was just a coincidence,” Qin Gou waved his hand indifferently, “Does Shangguan know the real reason for the change in the Hidden Immortal Map?”
To be frank, Qin Gou naturally wouldn’t tell Shangguan Ju the same nonsensical story about spirit puppets and the Saint Spirit’s summon.
“I also cannot communicate with the outside world,” Shangguan Ju shook her head with shame.
“No harm done. It is still quite safe here for the time being.” As he spoke, Qin Gou looked up at the sky where meteorites were continuously falling like rain.
At this moment, apart from him who had to stay here to manage and reinforce the protective formation, the spirit puppets such as the spirit cat and the white deer had all gone to cooperate with the female cultivators. It was expected that it wouldn’t be long before all the disciples of the Star-Shifting Pavilion within the Hidden Immortal Map would be gathered.
“No wonder the behavior of the creatures in the Hidden Immortal Map suddenly became so strange. So that’s how it is.”
Suddenly, a tall female cultivator with indifferent eyes entered Qin Gou’s sight.
“Dharma Aspect Realm?” Sensing the powerful aura that the other party didn’t bother to conceal, Qin Gou squinted his eyes, “Who are you?”
Even at this time, the elders of the Hidden Immortal Tower could clearly ignore the rules to avoid suspicion and enter the Hidden Immortal Map during the Saintess selection. Looking at the other party’s attire and expression, she didn’t seem like a good person.
“Qingyue! She is the former Mistress of Ten Thousand Flowers… Yu Rong!” Shangguan Ju immediately exclaimed.
“Then it’s likely that this upheaval within the Hidden Immortal Map is more or less related to you, right?” Qin Gou stared intently at Yu Rong.
As he spoke, Qin Yuan, Li Yuanzhen, and Ao Banwei slowly moved closer.
“Clever,” Yu Rong said with a smile, looking at him with interest, “And through the Hidden Immortal Map, I can also easily tell that you are clearly not a spirit puppet. Then who exactly…”
“Your Excellency, you don’t need to care about my origin. I just want to know, regardless of any conflict you have with the Hidden Immortal Tower, why must you attack these innocent disciples of the Star-Shifting Pavilion? Is it related to the strange stone in your hand?” Qin Gou’s gaze shifted to a black stone in Yu Rong’s right hand that was quietly emitting a sinister aura.
“An interesting junior, well done. This treasure needs to consume a lot of soul power to be restored… Why don’t I start with you, fellow who has wasted a lot of my valuable time for no reason?!”
Yu Rong’s tone was filled with the playful mockery of a cat playing with a mouse. Just as she was about to say something else, her expression suddenly changed, and she retreated rapidly.
“Boom!”
In her original position, a deep沟壑 was carved by a giant blood blade.
The Corpse Splitting Soul Shattering killing formation that Qin Gou had ‘unintentionally’ and ‘too conveniently’ set up at this moment locked onto Yu Rong alone.
“You little brat, how dare you!”
Yu Rong’s eyes were filled with extreme, frenzied ferocity.
“Is this person truly the former Mistress of Ten Thousand Flowers, Senior Yu Rong? She wanted to sacrifice all of us? How could her temperament become so cold and cruel?” Shangguan Ju’s expression was full of disbelief.
“The so-called benevolence and sacredness are not about knowing less, but about persevering more,” Qin Gou shook his head and shouted, “All those below the Dao Comprehension Realm, immediately retreat to the underground palace!”
“How can you, a little beast, point fingers at me!” Yu Rong’s beautiful face was as dark as water, and she flicked out a finger.
Three feet above Qin Gou’s head, a fragrant Thousand Sacred Flower spirit tool instantly condensed, like a butcher’s knife hanging high, containing astonishing destructive power.
“Heavenly Demon Unity!”
Qin Gou remained impassive, gently clasped his right palm in front of his chest, and conjured a black and white feather fan from nowhere, summoning violent winds and resounding thunderclaps, with lightning strikes so dazzling they hurt the eyes.
There was also a Kunpeng formed of lightning, which let out a sharp cry and swallowed the Thousand Sacred Flower in one gulp, rapidly attacking towards Yu Rong.
Although halfway, the Kunpeng was annihilated along with the Thousand Sacred Flower in a deafening explosion, a strong gust of wind still struck Yu Rong’s astonished face, making her long hair dance wildly.
“This spirit tool is…”
Yu Rong was not the only one in shock; Shangguan Ju, who had been standing by Qin Gou’s side the entire time, was also astonished.
The aura of a genuine Heavenly-grade spirit tool, its black and white feather fan form, and the terrifying ability to freely command the Heavenly Tribulation Kunpeng…
Heavenly-grade spirit tools were already extremely rare in this world! To possess all these characteristics at once, there was only that renowned and universally known Kunpeng Fan!
And in this world, who was qualified to wield the Kunpeng Fan…
“This is the Kunpeng Fan, so your real name should be ‘Qin Gou’, not Qingyue.” Shangguan Ju’s voice trembled as she gazed at Qin Gou with complex eyes.
“This is bad.”
At the same moment, A’Yuan’s expression changed drastically.
Qin Gou nodded slightly, “I had thought of explaining clearly to Shangguan before, but due to a series of mishaps, it was delayed again and again. After all, my name is too easily misunderstood.”
“Is that so?” Shangguan Ju suddenly smiled and, as fast as lightning, raised her right palm towards Qin Gou.
“Father!”
A’Yuan’s eyes flickered, and the soul-fixing thread in her palm instantly locked onto Shangguan Ju.
“Slap!”
“That’s great! I will definitely protect Fellow Daoist from any harm, no matter the cost!” Shangguan Ju placed a palm on Qin Gou’s shoulder, laughing heartily with determination.
“?”
A’Yuan stood dumbfounded.
“Shangguan, what do you mean?” Qin Gou was equally confused.
Shangguan Ju smiled and shook her head, not rushing to explain. Instead, she said with a determined expression, “Although I don’t know why you deliberately hid it from Qisi, that you are her birth father, please rest assured, I will not interfere!
Brother Qin, I will always be on the same side as you!”
For from this moment on, Shangguan Ju joyfully discovered that besides being close friends, they also shared a common enemy.
She had always been impressed by Fellow Daoist Qingyue’s chivalrous spirit and benevolence. This noble and gentlemanly demeanor could never be faked! Seeing the Kunpeng Fan, which was exactly the same as the Demon Master of Arc-Moon Mountain, she finally realized that he was indeed the sage master listed on the Saint Immortal Ranking!
This man, who was once an external incarnation for someone, endured humiliation and bore heavy responsibilities, and after years of dedication, finally became a generation’s ‘Chu Zhou Celestial Master,’ must be the same as her! He must dream of personally eliminating evil for the people and competing with that peerless Demon Saint who dominated the ranking!
