“I just thought of this method on the spot. It shows how clever Junior Sister Peach is; I gave her a look, and she understood my intention immediately,” Lu Yang said, feeling quite pleased with himself for coming up with the idea.

At first, Barbarian Bone didn’t understand what was happening and tried to resist the illusion, but Lu Yang persuaded him otherwise.

“This is an illusion set up by Junior Sister Peach, allowing the three of us not to feel dizzy.”

In reality, the three of them fought with broad and bold moves, exuding the aura of ancient generals sweeping through armies.

Peach Blossom Leaf grew increasingly adept at controlling the trio, driving their opponents into disarray.

The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain exchanged glances, seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.

They should have expected nothing less from disciples of the Dao Seeking Sect; even their combat methods were different from ordinary cultivators.

“What kind of battle technique is this!?” The people in the mud pit were astonished.

Historically, three-person attacks were always hampered by lack of coordination or insufficient teamwork, preventing them from utilizing their full power.

Take them, for example. Seven people besieged Lu Yang, but their combined strength was equivalent to only three or four individuals.

In contrast, Lu Yang’s trio saw their combat power triple after merging, their coordination seamless, their strength fully unleashed.

“Is this a Buddhist combat technique?”

It wasn’t surprising that people guessed this way. Buddhists rarely fought, and Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou were clearly Buddhist disciples. Barbarian Bone, with his fierce demeanor, seemed likely trained by the Buddhists as a guardian.

“It’s rare to see a Buddhist combat technique; today we’ve finally witnessed one.”

This could somewhat be considered a bragging point.

Hair can grow back, but witnessing a Buddhist combat technique was much rarer.

On the lakeside, Peach Blossom Leaf was panting heavily, struggling to maintain the illusion while planning the trio’s actions to break through the blockade.

Perhaps Lu Yang had drawn too much aggro; the crowd was determined not to let him escape.

“If the goal of this trip is the Twin Stem Lotus, then taking the lotus should suffice, right?” Peach Blossom Leaf used the illusion to erase her presence, sneaking into the mud pit to take the Twin Stem Lotus.

“The lotus is gone…” Someone, glancing back unintentionally, noticed the missing lotus.

About to shout, they saw Peach Blossom Leaf extend her index finger and lightly touch their forehead, plunging them into a deep illusion.

Seeing the lotus in her hand, Peach Blossom Leaf ran off, leaving only a fleeting shadow.

“The lotus is gone!” Finally, someone noticed that the most important objective of the trip—the Twin Stem Lotus—had been stolen.

“She took it!” Someone pointed at the distant Peach Blossom Leaf.

“Chase her!”

More than half the people chased after Peach Blossom Leaf, allowing Lu Yang and the others to finally breathe a sigh of relief.

With only twenty to thirty late Foundation Building stage cultivators remaining, they were no longer a threat.

The three weren’t worried about Peach Blossom Leaf; she excelled in illusions, making escape easy. Even Meng Jingzhou wasn’t confident he could completely see through her illusions.

Among Foundation Building stage cultivators, Peach Blossom Leaf’s illusions were arguably the strongest.

Only Lu Yang, with his special technique, was unafraid of illusions.

“Young Hero Lu, Young Hero Meng, Miss Peach said for you to go to Yuanming Inn to wait for her later,” the hook-nosed leader said, rushing over as Lu Yang quickly defeated the remaining people.

“Alright, I got it. Thank you, Leader Ying,” Lu Yang replied.

Leader Ying quickly waved his hand, “Oh, don’t say that. We couldn’t help at all this time.”

Barbarian Bone added, “Yuanming Inn is where Senior Sister Peach and I are staying at the Demon Subjugation Pass.”

Among their peers, Peach Blossom Leaf ranked third, and Barbarian Bone ranked fourth.

Lu Yang laughed, “What a coincidence, Yuanming Inn is also where Meng Jingzhou and I are staying.”

“Let’s head back. Maybe Junior Sister Peach will get there before us.”

……

The group returned to the inn, and sure enough, Peach Blossom Leaf was already there waiting for them. Leaning against the wall, she yawned out of boredom, holding a wooden box in her right hand.

“What’s with your getup?” Peach Blossom Leaf asked, looking at Lu Yang and the other two with a strange expression.

The three of them were wearing black hoods, covering their faces as if they were up to something shady.

This kind of attire was common in Demon Subjugation Pass, but unusual for Lu Yang.

Lu Yang sighed. “On our way back, we ran into some of the cultivators I had shaved bald. We were worried about being recognized, so we disguised ourselves.”

“I guess we’ve managed to offend every late Foundation Building stage cultivator in Demon Subjugation Pass.”

Peach Blossom Leaf rolled her eyes. “You brought this on yourself by insisting on using Arhat Fist. And why does Arhat Fist make people’s hair fall out? Is it supposed to turn them into Arhats?”

“It’s called guiding people to virtue. It’s a sign of mastering Arhat Fist. And who knew it would be so effective at making people lose their hair?” Lu Yang tried to defend himself.

Ignoring his explanation, Peach Blossom Leaf raised the wooden box she had been carrying. “The Twin Lotuses are in here. Let’s go upstairs.”

The box was made of high-quality sandalwood, capable of blocking divine sense and preventing the Twin Lotuses’ aura from leaking out.

“We’ll take our leave then, young heroes,” the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain said, cupping their fists in farewell to Lu Yang.

“Let’s go. Meng Jingzhou and I are staying at this inn too.”

“Really?” Peach Blossom Leaf was surprised, then remembered Meng Jingzhou’s habits. “Is it because this is the most expensive inn in Demon Subjugation Pass?”

“Exactly,” Meng Jingzhou replied with a smile. He always chose the most expensive option, and lodgings were no exception.

The four of them went to Meng Jingzhou’s room.

“Why did you two come to Demon Subjugation Pass?” Lu Yang asked curiously.

Did you two also ask Eldest Senior Sister’s age and get sent here as punishment?

“A few days ago, I made some progress in my cultivation and wanted to discuss it with someone. I went to Heaven’s Gate Peak to find you. Eldest Senior Sister told me you weren’t there and that you and Meng Jingzhou had gone to Demon Subjugation Pass for ten days of training.”

“Eldest Senior Sister said she has been keeping an eye on you two and noticed you were making good progress. She suggested that Barbarian Bone and I also come to Demon Subjugation Pass.”

“We originally wanted to bring Li Haoran too, but for some reason, Eldest Senior Sister said it wasn’t safe for him to leave Dao Seeking Sect right now, so he stayed behind.”

“And that’s how the two of us ended up here.”

After listening, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou broke out in a cold sweat. Eldest Senior Sister’s reach was indeed vast. They were glad they had been careful with their words and behavior these past few days and hadn’t spoken ill of her.

Meng Jingzhou, in particular, felt a chill. He remembered that when they first arrived in the dense forest, he had complained that Eldest Senior Sister had exiled them. Fortunately, Lu Yang had warned him, and he had corrected himself just in time.

As Peach Blossom Leaf spoke, she opened the wooden box.

Inside, the Twin Stem Lotus lay quietly.

“Now that we’ve gone through all the trouble to get the Twin Lotuses, how should we divide them?”

“Lu Yang, I want the lotus seeds! They taste good!” the Everlasting Fairy shouted in the mental space, reminding Lu Yang by hitting the ground.

Lu Yang pretended not to hear the commotion in the mental space.
