Ning Wanqing was shocked and instinctively raised his head. Unfortunately, his eyes could not see. He really wanted to have a look at the person in front of him who could kill Wu Guangping, a judge of the Black Tower Council.


The White Tower Council and the Black Tower Council had fought for many years so they were familiar with each other’s strength. Ning Wanqing, naturally, knew how strong Wu Guangping was. He asked skeptically, “Wu Guangping is dead?”


Shen Xi replied, “Since you can tell I was from the Black Tower Council, you should know there’s no reason for me to lie. Moreover, you can verify this matter if you don’t believe me. I just want to remind both of you that Senior Lu doesn’t like people who waste his time. It’s best not to be too arrogant. Otherwise, you won’t even know how you die…”


“…”


The white-clad young man was a testament to the veracity of Shen Xi’s words.


Ning Wanqing bowed and said, “As it turns out, you’re an expert. I hope you can forgive me for my transgression. Both of us were ordered to come here by the White Tower Council. First, we’re here to block the Black Tower Council’s runic passage. Second…” He hesitated for a moment before he continued to say, “Second, I’m here to investigate the deaths of the members of the White Tower Council who died here previously. There are rumors that the Black Tower Council is behind their deaths, but I don’t think so…”


Lu Zhou nodded before he said, “Let me tell you two things.”


“Please speak, old sir.”


“First, I need to use this runic passage. Second, don’t involve the golden lotus domain in your conflict with the Black Tower Council. Your people were killed because they were fighting with the Black Tower Council for benefits. They have no one to blame for their deaths…”


Ning Wanqing asked, puzzled, “Old sir, why do you need to use the runic passage?”


“Do I have to explain my actions to you?” Lu Zhou asked.


“…”


Ning Wanqing smiled awkwardly and said, “Old sir, I can’t report to the council if I don’t get an explanation from you…”


“That’s your problem, not mine.”


“…”


Ning Wanqing pointed at the runic passage in the forest and said, “This runic passage goes to the Black Tower Council and the red lotus domain. This is a matter of great importance, hence, I can’t ignore this and not report this to the council.”


Lu Zhou frowned slightly. “Since you don’t know what’s good for you…”


Lu Zhou raised his hand and a blue palm seal shot out like before. The only difference was its speed was much faster.


Ning Wanqing’s ears twitched. With a flick of his sleeve, the astrolabe with eight Birth Charts appeared in front of him.


Shen Xi felt rather envious when he saw the astrolabe. The distinct patterns of the eight Birth Charts were dazzling like the stars in the sky that were connected to each other.


Boom!


The palm seal landed on the astrolabe with eight Birth Charts.


Ning Wanqing, who took the blow directly, grunted. His blood qi churned a little in his body. Fortunately, his astrolabe was undamaged.


“I didn’t expect there’s such a strong person in the golden lotus domain,” Ning Wanqing said, “Old sir, I’ve never been very bright in my life. I devoted my life to cultivating and managed to make some achievements. I’d like to learn from you, and I hope you’ll be lenient with me…”


Lu Zhou stroked his beard as he looked at the blind middle-aged man. It seemed like not everyone in the White Tower Council was hateful. The person in front of him seemed honest. He said, “Your courage is commendable. There’s no need for us to spar…”


“Hmm?”


Lu Zhou continued to say, “If you can withstand three of my palm strikes, I won’t make things difficult for you…”


Ning Wanqing mulled over Lu Zhou’s words briefly before he nodded. “Alright.”


Ning Wanqing, an Eight Chart expert, was the strongest person Lu Zhou had ever faced, excluding Wu Guangping. Moreover, he did not have the chance to test his strength with Wu Guangping and had used the Deadly Strike Card to kill Wu Guangping back then.


After Ning Wanqing agreed, Lu Zhou slowly raised his hand.


“The first palm strike: the Great Vajra Wheel Hand Sign.”


This palm strike contained one-fourth of Lu Zhou’s supreme mystic power.


The blue palm seal was not very big; it was the size of a human.



Ning Wanqing’s ears twitched. He could sense and hear the fluctuation in the Primal Qi caused by the palm seal. He hurriedly manifested his astrolabe with its back facing outward. The back of the astrolabe looked like a huge luminous pearl.


Boom!


When the palm seal landed on the astrolabe, denting it.


“How is this possible!?” Ning Wanqing was shocked. He could feel the palm seal was stronger than before. Moreover, the fluctuation of the Primal Qi was not that strong; why did the palm seal contain so much power?


Energy seal appeared under Ning Wanqing’s feet as he slid backward for hundreds of meters, leaving the forest before he finally stabilized himself.


“My lord!” the white-clad young man cried out, alarmed.


This was just the first palm strike, but Ning Wanqing was already pushed back. Even his astrolabe with eight Birth Charts was dented!


Shen Xi felt a surge of emotions in his heart as he watched this. ‘Indeed, the Pavilion Master is stronger than an Eight Chart expert. I really hugged the right thigh this time!’


Meanwhile, Ning Wanqing who finally came to a halt felt his arms go numb. Even the veins on his arms were popping out. He was suddenly at a loss. Just the first palm seal was so formidable; how was he going to withstand the other two palm strikes? The qi in his Extraordinary Eight Meridians were chaotic, and his Dantian’s sea of Qi felt as though it had been turned upside down. He felt incredibly uncomfortable.


At this moment, Ning Wanqing regretted his decision slightly. However, since things had already come to this point, he could only brace himself and soldier on. He raised his head and looked ahead despite not being able to see anything and said, “Continue.”


“Alright. I used 20% of my strength with that palm strike. I hope you’ll be able to withstand the second palm strike as well…”


“…”


‘Only 20%? Steady. Don’t panic. It’s just words to mess with me psychologically…’


Ning Wanqing learned from his mistakes. This time, a Yin-and-Yang Taiji circle appeared under his feet. It spun before it the circle of light rose and protected his body. Following that, he manifested his astrolabe again. This time, two of the eight Birth Charts shone brighter than the others.


At this moment, Lu Zhou’s voice rang in the air. “The second palm strike: the Nine Cuts Hand Seal.”


‘Huh?’ Ning Wanqing’s eyelids twitched. He felt as though he had been tricked. The first palm seal was from the Buddhist school. How did the second palm seal turn into a palm seal from the Taoist school? He had intentionally used the Taoist’s Taiji circle since it was incredibly effective in defending against Buddhist techniques. What was he supposed to do now that it had changed to a Taoist palm seal?!


Lu Zhou pushed his palm out.


Nine palm seals flew out successively in a straight line toward Ning Wanqing.


This palm seal contained one-third of the supreme mystic power. It was enough to destroy a Birth Chart of those with four or fewer Birth Charts like Shen Xi.


Shen Xi’s heart trembled when he felt the force of the palm seal. He felt uncomfortable just looking at it; how frightening would it be if he had to face it? He did not want to imagine how Ning Wanqing must have felt at this moment.


Despite his confusion, Ning Wanqing gave his all to defend against this palm seal. He no longer judged the palm seal based on his hearing and senses. He pushed his astrolabe out in front of him again.


Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!


Nine palm seals landed on the astrolabe consecutively.


The astrolabe was so heavily dented that it seemed as though if a little more force was applied, it would pierce the astrolabe.


Ning Wanqing’s heart was in turmoil as he felt the force pushing against him from the front. The Taiji circle beneath his feet seemed like it could not withstand the pressure and began to ripple violently.


Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!


As Ning Wanqing was pushed back, he crashed against the trees and boulders behind him. At this moment, his eyes suddenly widened. The force from the palm seal had not completely dissipated! If this continued, his astrolabe would be destroyed and he would lose his life! He decisively withdrew his astrolabe at the crucial moment and allowed the force from the palm seal to land on the protective energy from the Taoist’s Taiji circle.


Bang!


The remnant force from the palm seal shattered the protective energy and landed squarely on Ning Wanqing’s chest, causing him to spit out blood.


“My lord!” The white-clad young man flew toward Ning Wanqing at lightning speed.


At this moment, Ning Wanqing kneeled on one knee as bright red blood that he could not see trickled out from the corners of his mouth, dripping on the back of his hand and the trenches that formed when he slid back. He gasped for breath, shocked. Without the protective energy, he felt the cool wind in the forest blowing against him, causing his body to tremble slightly. He hurriedly mobilized his energy to protect his meridians.


At this time, Lu Zhou’s voice drifted over. “I used 40% of my strength in this palm strike.”


‘40%?! This… ‘ Ning Wanqing felt stifled.


Lu Zhou, who was standing a few hundred meters away, said indifferently. “Are you ready? The third palm strike…”


At this moment, Ning Wanqing suddenly raised his hand decisively and interjected, “I give up!”
