My disciples are all villains.

Chapter 1170: Unable to Hold Onto It?

Cao Zechun was the only one who could still hover in the air.

The others sat on the ground and looked at the three mountains that were riddle with holes, which were a testament to Lu Wu's in shock and disbelief. It was a thoroughly dominating and crushing move that destroyed its opponents' Birth Charts. They panted heavily, trying to suppress their nervousness. The monster hunting squad that lived their lives on the edge of the blade all year round was defeated with this crushing move.

Cao Zechun felt suffocated as he surveyed his surroundings. At this point, no matter how big the harvest, the loss was too big and painful. The price was 40 Birth Charts! Even if they won, it was a Pyrrhic victory.

Fear lingered in Ye Wusheng and Ye Cheng's hearts as they surveyed their surroundings.

They did not know how much time had passed as they sat in a daze; it felt as though a century had passed. The cold wind finally pulled them back to their senses, to the reality of the tragic battle.

Nevertheless, even if they knew they had miscalculated, at this point, they had no choice but to continue moving forward according to the plan. Hence, they pulled themselves together and flew up into the air again.

This was also a terrifying trait of the monster hunting squad. No matter the situation, no matter how hard they fell, they would always stand up again. Over the long years, they had seen their companions die before their eyes, experienced the pain of being mauled by fierce beasts and all kinds of dangerous situations, but they would always stand up again, never giving up.

Cao Zechun waved his hand. "Gather."

Everyone quickly gathered.

Cao Zechun silently chanted a mantra, and the staff in his hand burst forth with light. At the same time, dark green light circles appeared under his feet.

This was the Buddhist' Bright Mirror.

It used to be the healing technique of a Fifteen Chart expert; now, it was the healing technique of a Fourteen Chart Thousand Realms Whirling cultivator.

The energy shrouded everyone. Their injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eyes and the pain receded. In the end, apart from the one Birth Chart each of them lost, it looked like they had never been injured in the first place.

"Go." Cao Zechun led everyone and flew up to the sky. He looked down at Lu Wu, inhaling and exhaling heat onto Duanmu Sheng to keep him warm.

The flowers, plants, and trees had long been turned into ice sculptures, devoid of life.

Everyone watched Lu Wu breathing slowly with its eyes closed.

Cao Zechun said, "Lu Wu, the winner takes all. You took 40 of Birth Charts, we'll all of yours!" Then, with unconcealed hatred and anger, he shouted, "Do it. Kill!"

"I'll do it!" Fu Ruandong stepped forward. The smile on her face had completely vanished, replaced by a solemn expression. Her bow glowed green as she pulled the bowstring back. With a loud twang, she released her fingers.

A huge energy arrow flew out like a shooting star toward Lu Wu's head.

Suddenly, Duanmu Sheng's eyes snapped open. Like a zombie, he sat up and raised his right hand.

Swoosh!

The Overlord Spear flew out and blocked the energy arrow.

Bang!

When Duanmu Sheng raised his head, his eyes glowed purple. The purple dragons swam restlessly in his arms.

Fu Ruandong frowned slightly. "A futile struggle."

She released dozens of energy arrows toward Duanmu Sheng.

Duanmu Sheng swung the Overlord Spear, blocking the energy arrows. He kept blocking and retreating.

"I don't believe this…" Fu Ruandong was filled with disbelief. She rose higher into the sky. The bow in her hand grew several times bigger. Then, the speed at which she released the energy arrows grew several times faster as well.

Duanmu Sheng kept retreating and deflecting the energy arrows with the Overlord Spear. However, in the end, he was forced to descend. He stabbed the Overlord Spear into the ground; his arms had grown numb. The difference between their cultivation was too huge, after all.

Fu Ruandong's eyes shone with killing intent as she said, "There are many who have died by my hands in this world. I hope you won't feel any pain from the next arrow."

She released her hold on the bow. When the bow hovered in front of her, she turned her body 90 degrees and nocked herself like an arrow. With that, an unprecedented powerful arrow was created! She knew she could no longer waste time.

Upon seeing this, the others were in awe.

"Fourth Sister is using the human arrow technique! That kid is doomed!"

"She should've just used this move earlier!"

Fu Ruandong exhaled softly before saying, "Farewell…"

Bang!

A thunderous explosion reverberated through the mountains as the ground began to quake violently.

However, everyone was shocked when they saw Duanmu Sheng standing unharmed.

"Huh?"

"Fourth Sister!"

When they regained their senses, they looked up and saw a shocking scene.

Fu Ruandong's chest had been pierced by a thin and long golden arrow with a blue tip. Her eyes widened in disbelief as blood trickled out the corners of her lips. She did not even have the chance to shoot her shot.

Cao Zechun turned pale in fright and hastily cast a healing spell.

Swoosh!

At this moment, the arrow dislodged itself. The painful sound of flesh tearing rang in the air immediately. Following that, the arrow dissipated in the air.

"Who is it?"

"Golden lotus cultivator?!"

Fu Ruandong's Thousand Realms Whirling avatar appeared before it shrank and vanished before she dropped from the sky. Just like that, she lost another Birth Chart.

Although Cao Zechun's healing technique was exceptional, it was impossible for him to recover the Birth Chart.

A voice rang in the air at this moment.

"I'll kill whoever dares to move."

At this time, Cheng Huang swooped down from the clouds over what remained of the three mountains.

The monster hunting squad collectively retreated dozens of meters.

Boom!

Cheng Huang landed.

Lu Zhou stood tall and straight on Cheng Huang's head as he swept his gaze past everyone. With just a glance at Lu Wu and Duanmu Sheng's current situation, he had a basic understanding of the situation.

Cao Zechun felt the person in front of him was not simple. He said, "Sir, everyone should follow the rules of first come, first serve. Don't you think it's rude for you to intrude?"

"You're talking about rules with me?" Lu Zhou asked.

"That's right. Rules! The rules of survival in the Unknown Land," Cao Zechun said.

"You dare to talk about rules when you tried to kill my disciple?" Lu Zhou asked.

Cao Zechun. "???"

"You dare to talk about 'first come, first serve' when you tried to kill the beast emperor that my disciple tamed?"

Cao Zechun was rendered speechless by these two questions.

Xu Zhongxia stepped forward and said, "Since he's your disciple, please take him away. We're going to take Lu Wu away today."

Everyone nodded.

Based on Lu Zhou's arrow, Cao Zechun and the others knew he was somewhat dangerous. However, the hatred of losing 40 Birth Charts was too great.

Cheng Huang lowered its head to look at Lu Wu that was lying on the ground.

At this time, Cao Zechun finally discovered the presence of the beast king, Cheng Huang.

"M-master…" Duanmu Sheng called out weakly before he fell backward.

Everyone looked over.

Duanmu Sheng's body was drenched in blood. Purplish-blue energy shrouded him; it was the only thing keeping him alive at this moment.

Conch flew over immediately. "Senior brother!"

At this time, Xu Zhongxia hurriedly moved next to Cao Zechun's side. He said in a low voice, "Brother, it's the Great Void Seed!"

Cao Zechun, who was about to lose his temper, calmed down immediately. Following that, he said decisively, "Get ready!"

The members of the monster hunting squad got into positions and manifested their astrolabes.

Cao Zechun manifested his astrolabe that flashed with 14 Birth Charts as well.

There were two astrolabes with ten Birth Charts; one with nine Birth Charts; the others all had four to six Birth Charts.

Although their numbers were not a lot, their strength was far superior to the Black Tower Council. Cao Zechun with his 14 Birth Charts contributed greatly to the overall strength of the group. Moreover, this was after Lu Wu's collective destruction of their Birth Charts!

As the saying went, 'People die for money and birds die for food'.

At this moment, all reasoning had flown away with the discovery of the Great Void Seed and Lu Wu's life hearts.

Cao Zechun said, "Lu Wu took a Birth Chart from each of us! If we don't take revenge, how's the monster hunting squad going to survive in the future?"

Lu Zhou shook his head. Was it destined that he could not save his Supreme Mystic Card?

At this moment, Lu Wu opened its eyes and said haltingly, "Return me… my… life… heart…"
