Reliable Tao Yaoye
"Hey, that's a good idea!" Meng Jingzhou laughed, relaxing.
Anyway, Tao Yaoye is currently controlling the three of their bodies, so there's nothing for them to do.
"I only came up with this idea on the spur of the moment. You have to admit, Junior Sister Tao is incredibly intelligent. I just gave her a look, and she understood what I meant." Lu Yang was quite proud of himself for coming up with this idea.
At first, Man Gu didn't understand what was happening and wanted to resist the illusion, but Lu Yang persuaded him to stop.
"This is an illusion created by Junior Sister Tao; it keeps the three of us from getting dizzy."
In reality, Lu Yang and his two companions fought with a sweeping, powerful style, reminiscent of ancient generals who swept through armies.
Tao Yaoye became increasingly adept at controlling the three, defeating them decisively.
The Five Eagles of Eagle Mountain exchanged glances, seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
As expected of a disciple of the Ask Dao Sect, their fighting style is different from that of ordinary cultivators.
"What kind of battle tactic is this?!" The people in the mud pit were shocked.
Throughout history, when three people attack simultaneously, they have always failed to unleash their full power because they lacked unity or coordination.
For example, seven of them attacked Lu Yang, but in reality, their strength was only equivalent to that of three or four people.
In contrast, Lu Yang and his two companions tripled their combat power after Body Integration, their teamwork was seamless, and they unleashed their full strength.
"Is this the Buddhist fighting method?!"
It's no wonder people make such guesses. Buddhists rarely take action. Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou are clearly Buddhist disciples, and the Man Gu on his face. It's estimated that the Buddhist sect is grooming him to be a protector.
"The fighting style of Buddhist monks is rarely seen; today I have finally witnessed it."
That's something to brag about, at least to some extent.
Hair can grow back after being shaved, but the fighting style of Buddhist monks is not so easy to witness.
On the lakeside, Tao Yaoye was panting heavily. She needed to maintain the illusion while thinking about how to get the three of them to move and break through the blockade.
Lu Yang must have attracted too much hatred, because the crowd was determined not to let Lu Yang leave.
"Since the goal of this trip is the twin lotus blossoms, then we can just take the lotus blossoms, right?" Tao Yaoye used an illusion to eliminate her own presence, secretly jumped into the mud pit, and took the twin lotus blossoms.
"The lotus is gone..." Someone turned around unintentionally and found that the lotus was gone.
Just as he was about to shout, Tao Yaoye stretched out her index finger and gently touched the person's forehead, plunging him into a deep illusion.
Tao Yaoye had the lotus in her hand, she took off running, leaving behind a graceful silhouette.
"The lotus flowers are gone!" Finally, someone discovered that the most important purpose of this trip—the twin lotus flowers with one stem on each stem—had been stolen.
"She's the one who took it!" someone pointed to the departing Tao Yaoye.
"Chase!"
With more than half of the people chasing after Tao Yaoye, Lu Yang and his two companions finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The remaining twenty or thirty Foundation Establishment Late Stage are hardly a threat.
The three of them weren't worried about Tao Yaoye. Tao Yaoye was skilled in illusions and could easily escape being tracked. Even Meng Jingzhou wasn't confident that he could see through Tao Yaoye's illusions completely.
During the Foundation Establishment Realm, Tao Yaoye's illusion can be considered the strongest.
In other words, Lu Yang's Cultivation Method is special, and he is not afraid of illusions.
"Young Master Lu, Young Master Meng, Miss Tao just said you should wait for her at Yuanming Inn later." The hook-nosed leader rushed over to deliver the message after seeing Lu Yang defeat the remaining men in no time.
"Okay, I understand. Thank you for your trouble, Boss Eagle."
The hook-nosed leader quickly waved his hand. "You wouldn't dare say that, we weren't able to help at all this time."
Man Gu added, "Yuanming Inn is where Senior Sister Tao and I stayed at Zhenyao Pass."
Among the top five in the same year, Tao Yaoye ranked third and Man Gu ranked fourth.
Lu Yang laughed and said, "What a coincidence, Yuanming Inn is also where Meng Jingzhou and I stayed."
"Let's go back. Maybe Junior Sister Tao will get back before us."
The group returned to the inn, where Tao Yaoye was already waiting for them. She leaned against the wall, yawned with utter boredom, and carried a wooden box in her right hand.
"What kind of look is this on you three?" Tao Yaoye looked at Lu Yang and the other two with a strange expression.
Lu Yang and his two companions wore black hoods and covered their faces, as if they had done something shameful.
This style is quite common in Zhenyao Pass, but it's not so common on Lu Yang.
Lu Yang sighed, "It's because we ran into the cultivator whose head I shaved on the way back. The three of us were worried about being recognized, so we disguised ourselves."
"This time, we've really offended all the Foundation Establishment Late Stage Demon Suppression Pass."
Tao Yaoye rolled her eyes. "Isn't this all your own fault? Why did you have to use the Arhat Fist? And why does the Arhat Fist cause hair loss? Is the effect to turn a person into an Arhat?"
"This is called persuading people to do good, and it's a sign of mastering Luohanquan. Besides, who knew Luohanquan was so effective at reducing hair loss?" Lu Yang tried to explain.
Tao Yaoye pretended not to hear Lu Yang's explanation and raised the wooden box she had been carrying. "The twin lotus flowers are here, come upstairs."
This is a fine sandalwood box, capable of blocking Divine Sense detection and ensuring that the aura of the twin lotus blossoms does not leak out.
"Then we'll take our leave, young heroes." The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain clasped their hands in farewell to Lu Yang.
"Let's go, Meng Jingzhou and I are also staying at this hotel."
"What a coincidence?" Tao Yaoye was taken aback, then remembered Meng Jingzhou's identity. "Is it because this inn is the most expensive inn in Zhenyao Pass?"
"You're right," Meng Jingzhou laughed. He always used the most expensive options, and hotels were no exception.
The four of them went to Meng Jingzhou's room.
"Why are you two here at Zhenyao Pass?" Lu Yang asked curiously.
Did you two also risk your lives to ask about Senior Sister's age, only to be banished here?
"I gained some insights into my cultivation a few days ago and wanted to find someone to discuss them with, so I came to Heaven Gate Peak to look for you. My senior sister told me that you weren't there; you had already gone to Meng Jingzhou for ten days of training."
"My senior sister said she's been keeping an eye on the two of you, and seeing that you've had good results training at Demon Suppression Pass, she suggested that Man Gu and I also come to Demon Suppression Pass."
"I originally wanted to invite Li Haoran, but for some reason, Senior Sister said it wasn't safe for Li Haoran to leave the Ask Dao Sect right now, so she didn't let him come."
"And so, the two of us came."
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this. Their senior sister was indeed incredibly perceptive, able to detect things. Fortunately, they had been careful with their words and actions these past few days and hadn't said anything bad about their senior sister.
Meng Jingzhou, in particular, felt a wave of fear wash over him.
He still remembered when he first arrived in the dense forest, he said that his senior sister had exiled them to the frontier. Fortunately, Lu Yang reminded him, so he changed his words in time and escaped a disaster.
As Tao Yaoye spoke, she opened the sandalwood box.
Inside the wooden box, twin lotus blossoms lay quietly.
"We finally managed to snatch these twin lotus blossoms, how should we divide them?"
"Lu Yang, I want lotus seeds! Lotus seeds are delicious!" The Immortal Fairy shouted in the spiritual space, patting the ground to remind Lu Yang.
Lu Yang pretended not to hear the noise in the mental space.
