Chapter 987

For Zhou Zhiruo, the Eastern Depot experts and countless agents had been lying in the forest of Mount Shaoshi for who knows how long.

During this time, they had really fed all the mosquitoes on Mount Shaoshi and had been waiting extremely impatiently.

Now that the main person had appeared, not only Iron Claw Flying Eagle, but the other Eastern Depot experts also couldn't wait to make a move immediately.

"Wait!"

Cao Zhengchun was also extremely excited inside.

Since Zhou Zhiruo disappeared last time, there was never a moment he didn't want to find her.

Now that Zhou Zhiruo had suddenly appeared, he was also excited.

But after observing from afar for a while, he couldn't help but feel a bit strange in his heart.

Not far away, Zhou Zhiruo, who was chatting and laughing with Master Yeyu and walking up the mountain together, looked strange no matter how he looked at her.

Hearing Iron Claw Flying Eagle's words, Cao Zhengchun reacted.

This Zhou Zhiruo was a great expert who could fight him and even defeat him with that precious sword.

But Zhou Zhiruo at this moment, her steps were far from as light as before, but rather heavy.

Not to mention compared to him, even compared to Master Yeyu, there was a not-so-small gap.

What was going on?

Could it be that this Zhou Zhiruo was fake?

"Superintendent, what are you waiting for?"

Iron Claw Flying Eagle didn't understand and could only ask.

"Flying Eagle, can't you see that this Zhou Zhiruo is a bit strange?"

The one who answered Iron Claw Flying Eagle was not Cao Zhengchun, but Luo Jusheng.

Among the eight great experts of the Eastern Depot, Luo Jusheng had the sharpest eyes and was best at guessing Cao Zhengchun's thoughts.

He originally wanted to make a move immediately, but seeing Cao Zhengchun's expression was wrong, after a little thought, he saw the key to the problem.

"Zhou Zhiruo is a great expert who can defeat Master Yeyu, as well as you and me."

"Why is it that when she performs light-body techniques on this mountain path, she is not even as good as Master Yeyu?"

Luo Jusheng pointed out the problem directly.

"Ah? That's true!"

Iron Claw Flying Eagle had truly been defeated by Zhou Zhiruo, and now, with Luo Jusheng's hint, he reacted immediately.

"Could it be that this is really a fake?"

"Is this Zhou Zhiruo so powerful that she even knew we were lying in ambush waiting for her?"

Iron Claw Flying Eagle said quite puzzled.

Cao Zhengchun frowned, watching Master Yeyu and the other person pass by the Sword-Unsheathing Hall not far from him and head straight for Mount Shaoshi.

"Superintendent! Perhaps it was caused by Zhou Zhiruo being injured in the battle with you, old man?"

At this moment, an Eastern Depot expert suddenly said.

"Makes sense! The Superintendent's divine skill is world-shaking and invincible."

"In the last battle, that mountain was razed to the ground."

"Zhou Zhiruo is a delicate woman, how could she not be injured?"

Iron Claw Flying Eagle heard this, his eyes lit up, and he immediately began to flatter Cao Zhengchun energetically.

"Maybe!"

Cao Zhengchun didn't believe this, saying,

"Forget it! Since Zhou Zhiruo has appeared, there is no need to wait any longer."

"Master Liaofan, go hold the Slaughter Blade Conference!"

"Luo Jusheng, Flying Eagle, you two take the eight great experts and must keep a close eye on this Zhou Zhiruo for me."

"Once it is confirmed that she is Zhou Zhiruo, make a move immediately."

"As you command!"

Liaofan, Luo Jusheng, Iron Claw Flying Eagle, and others immediately took the order.

"Others, continue to lurk and observe, and do not let any suspicious people go."

Cao Zhengchun ordered the other Eastern Depot agents.

"Yes! Superintendent."

The Eastern Depot agents immediately listened respectfully.

After the arrangements were made, Liaofan immediately walked out from behind the tree shadows with joy.

He walked quickly toward the Shaolin Temple on the mountain.

He could finally hold the Slaughter Blade Conference; as long as he killed this Guihai Yidao, he would have completed his mission.

By then, even if his cultivation couldn't compare to the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis or Cao Zhengchun,

in terms of Jianghu prestige, I fear it wouldn't be below theirs.

Shaolin was about to rise under his hands!

His name would also spread forever in Shaolin.

Thinking of the proud moment, Liaofan felt as if he were walking on air.

In two or three steps, he entered the gate of Shaolin Temple.

As the Shaolin leader, he appeared, and naturally, countless sect leaders and elders came up to talk.

Thinking of the glory about to be added to him, Liaofan also smiled and chatted with everyone who came.

Turning around, he saw Master Yeyu standing in a corner with Zhou Zhiruo, chatting, and ignoring his arrival.

Liaofan felt angry in his heart.

The Emei Sect was not as good as Shaolin, and Master Yeyu had always followed his lead.

What magic did this Zhou Zhiruo have, not only provoking Cao Zhengchun's Eastern Depot to make such a big move and delaying his Slaughter Blade Conference,

but also making Master Yeyu ignore him in public.

It was truly hateful!

Thinking of this, Liaofan came to Master Yeyu, chanted a Buddha's name, and said,

"Master Yeyu, I haven't seen you for a few days, why do I feel that your cultivation has improved?"

This sentence was both a polite remark and the truth.

Walking closer, Liaofan discovered that Master Yeyu, for some reason, had her divine light contained, and her breath was even and long.

No matter how he looked at it, he felt that her cultivation had improved.

But how long had it been since the battle in the wild valley last time? How could this Master Yeyu suddenly make progress?

"Master Liaofan has good eyes."

Master Yeyu was full of spring breeze, her face filled with joy, and she pointed to Zhou Zhiruo and said to Liaofan,

"I think you have already recognized this Miss Zhou."

"It was Miss Zhou who taught me a set of Emei sword techniques, which made my cultivation improve."

"Miss Zhou's kindness is truly something I am endlessly grateful for!"

Saying this, Master Yeyu even cupped her hands to thank Zhou Zhiruo.

As soon as these words came out, the nearby Wu Lin people were all in an uproar.

Master Yeyu, are you okay?

As the Emei Sect Leader, you were actually taught sword techniques by this delicate little girl, leading to a great improvement in your cultivation?

What is the origin of this beauty?

"Oh? Miss Zhou has such deep attainments in Emei sword techniques?"

Liaofan heard this, and his eyebrows jumped repeatedly.

He never thought that Zhou Zhiruo could be so high that she could guide Master Yeyu?

And Master Yeyu was also outrageous, admitting in public that she owed Zhou Zhiruo a favor.

I fear that after today, the name of this Miss Zhou Zhiruo will resound throughout the entire Wu Lin, and no one will be able to block it anymore.

Zhou Zhiruo smiled confidently, ignoring the discussions of others, and said to Liaofan,

"Emei sword techniques, I only understand a little." ===== CHAPTER 988 =====
