My Disciples Are All Villains

A hint of surprise flashed in Lan Xihe's eyes. She could not believe Ye Tianxin refused her good intentions. She said, "Little sister, you have to think about this carefully. Many people in this world long for such an opportunity, but they don't have the chance..."

"Thank you for your good intentions." Ye Tianxin shook her head and said, "I already have a master. I once swore that I'd never betray the Evil Sky Pavilion again... This is an oath I will keep until I die."

"You really don't want to?" Lan Xihe's eyes shone with complex emotions.

"I'm sorry." Ye Tianxin shook her head. She dared not forget the oath she had made.

Lan Xihe sighed softly. "I think you're too hasty with your decision. Think about it again."

"There's no need for that," Ye Tianxin said without hesitation, "My master treated me with great kindness. If I turn my back on him again, won't I be worse than a beast? I know that your cultivation base is profound. I don't know what your motive is. However, even if you kill me, I won't change my mind. You can leave now..." After she finished speaking, she looked away. Her expression was one of determination.

"Then I'll fulfill your wish," Lan Xihe said as she slowly raised her hand.

Buzz!

A blazing white light appeared in her palm; it seemed to contain the light from the sun, the moon, and the stars.

Soon enough, a Thousand Realms Whirling avatar that towered past the clouds appeared. Its astrolabe spun above Ye Tianxin's head as beams of light shot out in every direction.

Ye Tianxin frowned as she looked at the astrolabe in the sky. She tried to move but discovered she had been restrained.

"Amorous Hoops!"

Whoosh!

The Amorous Hoops shot out in all directions.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Lan Xi flicked her left hand; the Amorous Hoops flew into her hands.

"Chenghuang! Run!"

Cheng Huang roared when it realized its master was in danger. Instead of fleeing, it stomped its hooves and leaped toward Lan Xihe.

Bang!

Lan Xihe's heart was as still as water as she gently waved her hand. "Your current strength isn't enough to protect your master..."

The wave-like energy swept toward Cheng Huang and sent it flying back. It could not even withstand a single strike from Lan Xihe.

"..."

Lan Xihe's power far exceeded Ye Tianxin's imagination.

The light fell like water.

Ye Tianxin closed her eyes. When the light shone on her, it felt as though she had been transported to a world of whiteness. She did not feel the pain of death at all. She looked around in a daze... After a moment, she saw her avatar. Her lotus seemed to be nourished by the white energy and soon let out a crisp noise. In less than 15 minutes, she had sprouted her tenth leaf.

"..."

There was no pain or discomfort. On the contrary, it felt gentle and natural like a spring breeze.

Swoosh!

The white energy returned to the astrolabe and flowed back like a waterfall.

The light disappeared along with the astrolabe and avatar.

Everything had returned to normal by the west lake.

Lan Xihe smiled. "Consider this a meeting gift."

"You..." Ye Tianxin was extremely surprised.

Lan Xihe pointed at the distance and said, "You're lucky. The Birth Chart Beast is here. It's a mystic bird that's good at flying. Its life heart is a good life heart for you to activate your first Birth Chart."

Following that, Lan Xihe raised her fair right hand and pushed it out.

An incandescent beam of white light shot out, accurately piercing the mystic bird in the distance.

Subsequently, a crystal-clear life heart floated out of the mystic bird's body.

With a wave of her hand, the life heart flew into Lan Xihe's hand from the distance.

The Birth Chart Beast was killed with just one move...

Lan Xihe moved to stand in front of Ye Tianxin and said with a faint smile, "Take it, and your weapon as well..."

"..." Ye Tianxin really wanted to say that she already had one life heart but held her tongue in the end.

Lan Xihe placed the life hearts and the Amorous Hoops in Ye Tianxin's hand as she said, "You must respect your master very much. This is a rare quality. It seems like I should meet your master and see what kind of person he is..."

"No!" Ye Tianxin instinctively refused. She was afraid Lan Xihe would attack her master. She had witnessed Lan Xihe's power after all; she did not want any harm to come to her master.

"Don't worry. I won't kill anyone... Besides, your master isn't weak. Farewell." Lan Xihe turned around and flashed away, disappearing in just a blink of an eye.

...

At noon.

In a small town in the black lotus domain.

Lu Zhou looked at the sun outside the window when he received a system notification.

"Ding! Mingshi Yin has met the requirements to complete his apprenticeship. Would you like him to complete his apprenticeship?"

"Hmm? What was Old Fourth doing before this?"

Lu Zhou was really surprised by the notification. Previously, when he checked in on Mingshi Yin, Mingshi Yin was sleeping soundly. How did Mingshi Yin suddenly form a Thousand Realms Whirling avatar?

Lu Zhou immediately recited the mantra for the Heavenly Writing Power.

Similar to before, lush greeneries obscured his vision.

Zzz! Zzz! Zzz!

Again, the thunderous sound of Mingshi Yin snoring rang in Lu Zhou's ears.

"..."

If Yu Zhenghai saw this, he would be incredibly vexed.

When did his fourth disciple sprout the tenth leaf? When did he kill a Birth Chart Beast?

Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!

Qiong Qi's barking jolted Mingshi Yin from his sleep.

He sat up in a daze. "Who is it? Who dares to disturb my sleep?"

All of a sudden, the lush greeneries and the blue wood disappeared.

Lu Zhou finally had a good look at the surroundings.

As it turned out, Mingshi Yin was in a jungle.

Qiong Qi was lying at the side; Mingshi Yin's miniature avatar was in front of it. It kept barking at the avatar, and its spittle landed on the avatar.

"Hey, Hey, Hey... Damn dog, why are you so close?"

Woof! Woof! Woof!

"Didn't I tell you to keep watch... Wait! Is this the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar?"

Woof!

"The Thousand Realms Whirling avatar... is so ugly... Why isn't it as cool as master's?" Ming Shiyin looked at his newly formed Thousand Realms Whirling avatar with an expression of dissatisfaction. "Doggy, keep watching. I want to activate my second Birth Chart."

Lu Zhou. "???"

Sure enough, Ming Shiyin really took out a life heart from the pocket near his chest.

Where did his fourth disciple get so many life hearts? Moreover, that life heart was close to an intermediate life heart. Previously, he only had nine leaves. How difficult was it for a Nine-leaf cultivator to obtain a life heart, let alone one that was almost at the intermediate grade? It was more difficult than ascending to the heavens.

At this time, Ming Shiyin placed the second life heart in his Birth Place. Following that, he yawned before he said, "I'm going to continue to sleep. Alert me if there's anything..."

Woof! Woof! Woof!

Ming Shiyin stroked Qiong Qi's head and said, "Okay, okay, I'll feed you ten delicious beasts later. Damn it, don't come so close! You're so dirty!"

Soon after, Mingshi Yin was sound asleep.

Green vines and trees grew crazily in the surroundings at a speed visible to the naked eye, obscuring Lu Zhou's vision again.

Lu Zhou withdrew the Heavenly Writing Power.

He stroked his beard and muttered to himself, "I've underestimated you... The Bluewood Heart Technique is so miraculous?"

Under normal circumstances, it was not advisable to activate Birth Charts too close to one another unless one was very confident.

Mingshi Yin had sprouted the tenth leaf, activated his Birth Chart, formed his Thousand Realms Whirling avatar, and was activating his second Birth Chart. Most importantly, he seemed to be having a good time and was not in pain at all. This was a rarity.

'Ah, it's really vexing to make comparisons...'

"Complete the apprenticeship."

"Ding! Your disciple, Mingshi Yin, has successfully completed his apprenticeship."

"Ding! You're rewarded with a random card. When you use this card, a rare item will be randomly awarded to you."

"Ding! After Mingshi Yin completed his apprenticeship, he can now establish a sect and accept disciples. Maximum number of disciples: 3."

"Ding! You will no longer receive points for teaching Mingshi Yin."

"Ding! You must confirm this with Mingshi Yin in person. Currently, this only takes effect in the system."
