Mu Jingyu has been to the top of Tianjue Peak several times. Is it just this time? As soon as I reached the halfway point of the mountain, I saw a patch of red clouds coming down from top to bottom, draped over the mountain like a colorful coat.
"Hurry up! This red cloud is the clouds and mist surrounding the protective sect formation at the top of Tianjue Peak. Its own spiritual energy is stronger than the attack of dozens of Kaitian realm masters for an hour. Because it consumes a huge amount of spiritual energy, it takes If the Dao Discussion Conference were not being held today, Master would not turn it on because he was worried about foreign enemies entering the room." After Guo Qingshan explained the origin of the red clouds, a powerful aura emanated from his body, converging into the shape of a fairy sword, pulling the two of them together. Wrap it up and insert it into the red clouds.
Before Mu Jingyu entered the red clouds, he didn't feel the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy, and thought it was just Guo Qingshan's exaggeration. When I really entered it, I suddenly realized that the light and shadow were flowing in the red clouds, and the spiritual energy was far beyond imagination, and I realized that what Guo Qingshan said was true.
From halfway up the mountain to the top of Tianjue Peak, there is still a distance of seven to eight hundred feet. At first, Guo Qingshan could rely on his cultivation at the peak of Guiyuan to resist the invasion of spiritual energy inside. But on the one hand, he had to protect Mu Jingyu, and on the other hand, he had to fly with his sword. Gradually, he became a little exhausted and his speed slowed down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Mu Jingyu said: "Uncle Guo, why is it that this cloud of mist surrounds the formation indistinguishably between the enemy and us? Even if you enter, it will take a huge amount of energy to resist."
"Of course." Guo Qingshan took a breath and said: "The top of Tianjue Peak is where the Jiuhua Sect's Ming Sect is, and the Yunxia Mist Circle is the last barrier. If foreign enemies really attack here, it means that the sect has already It’s a matter of life and death. In order to prevent spies in the door from cooperating with each other, once the formation is activated, there will be no distinction between ourselves and the enemy."
"I see." Mu Jingyu is also a disciple of the Jiuhua Sect, and he has never heard of the clouds and mist surrounding the Tianjue Peak. It can be seen from this that the Jiuhua Sect's ability to stand for thousands of years and become one of the nine sects on the righteous path is definitely not what you see in front of you. I don’t know how much power is hidden in the dark. I couldn't help but gain a lot of confidence in my next plan.
After the two of them galloped another three to four hundred feet towards the peak, Guo Qingshan was already struggling to hold on. Seeing this, Mu Jingyu no longer hesitated, stretched out his left hand and pressed it on his arm. In the next quarter of an hour, countless spiritual energy emerged from the Jiuyaoxuan Light Chain, replenishing Guo Qingshan with enough infuriating energy.
Guo Qingshan felt that these spiritual energies were powerful enough to reach the innate realm. He couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Mu Jingyu, knowing that the rumors from the outside world were indeed true. With the artifact on his wrist, Mu Jingyu indeed had the ability to fight against the masters of the innate realm.
"What a good boy, you really hide your secrets." After Guo Qingshan praised Mu Jingyu, he took the spiritual energy he sent over, accelerated his body several times, broke through the denser red clouds in front of him, and fell to the ground. On the jade Xiao stage.
In an instant, all the surrounding fog dissipated, and the sun shone straight down from the western sky. Mu Jingyu looked around and saw that the originally spacious Jade Xiao Stage was already filled with thousands of righteous disciples and casual cultivators.
On the edge of the Jade Xiao Terrace, there are more than 20 stone statues carved in a circle of the Jiuhua Sect's leaders, towering like clouds. From the human face on the top of the stone statue, streaks of red clouds continuously erupted and merged into the red clouds surrounding Tianjue Peak, continuously replenishing it with spiritual energy.
Looking further into the distance, with the arch bridge of Qingxiao Hall as the boundary, a high platform has been built on both sides. Disciples from the upper nine sects and the lower nine sects of the righteous path sat among them, with flags representing each sect flying in the wind.
In front of the arch bridge, a row of nine Azure Sunbursts lined up. Master Puru, the host of Lingjue Temple, is sitting in the middle. On both sides are the Eight Lotus Saint Xiangzi from Yukun Palace, Master Tongxuan, the leader of Wuji Ruins, Tianyang Zhenren, the leader of Jiuhua Sect, and Wu, the leader of Emei Sect. Eight people including Master Ming, Zhen Lingzi, the master of Wuzhuang Temple, Shangguan Xixi, the master of Jinxiu Palace, Ling Zhongtian, the master of Lingxiao Pavilion, and Wanli Qingtian, the master of Guiyuan Villa, were sitting on the left and right.
With the arrival of Mu Jingyu and Guo Qingshan, the disciples of the Zhengdao sect who first discovered the two, as well as the scattered cultivators among them, all closed their mouths and stared at the two men. The disciples of various sects further away naturally discovered the situation here, and all turned their gazes over.
In the blink of an eye, Yuxiaotai, which had been bustling with people just now, immediately became quiet.
Master Puru, who had been waiting for a long time, saw the two of them from a distance and said loudly: "Amitabha, Master Nephew Guo, and Shaoxia Mu, you are finally here. Come to the center quickly."
"Qingshan obeys your order." After Guo Qingshan finished speaking, he held Mu Jingyu's right hand tightly and walked slowly to the middle of Yuxiaotai from a path separated by the disciples of each sect.
After passing through the crowd, eight arenas were formed into a Bagua pattern and were scattered in the center of the Jade Xiao Platform. They must have been used by disciples from various sects to compete and compete. In the center of the eight arenas, there is a slightly smaller high platform standing among them.
Guo Qingshan pulled Mu Jingyu up, asked him to stand in the center, and whispered: "Jingyu, stand here obediently and wait for the seniors to ask questions. But remember, say whatever you ask. , don’t talk nonsense.”
Mu Jingyu said: "Uncle Guo, don't worry. Didn't you already warn me when you were reflecting on the cliff just now? Jingyu knows what to do, and I promise not to do anything wrong again."
Guo Qingshan nodded, then took a few steps back and stood at the edge of the high platform.
Mu Jingyu turned his head and looked at the nine sect leaders who were sitting upright. After seeing them all slightly nodding their heads, he knew that they were fully prepared and were waiting to act as planned.
Master Puru turned his head slightly and looked around, and said to Master Tianyang and Master Wuming: "You two, Mu Jingyu has been brought here. If you have anything to ask, shall we start now?"
Master Wuming snorted coldly, indicating that he understood. Immortal Tianyang then stood up, first put his arms around himself, bowed slightly to the more than a thousand disciples, and then said: "Fellow fellow practitioners and fellow cultivators, I believe you all know that my Jiuhua sect disciples Mu Jingyu and Qin Yunchuan, A month ago, in order to help Princess Bi Yun of Demon Hades Palace heal her wounds and detoxify, she sneaked into Mount Emei to steal Tianxiang wood. It also caused the men in black robes and the North Pluto to gather outside Mount Emei, which almost made a big mistake."
As soon as Master Tianyang finished speaking, he heard whispers below, and there was obviously a lot of discussion.
Seeing this situation, Master Tianyang pressed his hands slightly, and at the same time secretly channeled his spiritual energy, raised his voice a few minutes, and then continued: "Regarding this matter, Tianyang and more than a thousand disciples of Jiuhua Sect, first of all, I want to accompany the leader of Wuming. Not any more."
After Master Tianyang finished speaking, he turned around and bowed deeply to Master Wuming. Then he continued: "When I got the news, I was even more furious and surprised than you all! Although Mu Jingyu has been entangled with the man in black robes for more than half a year, and there are rumors that he is their young master, It’s just that everyone in Jiuhua Mountain agrees that he was wrongly accused.”
"But when I heard that Mu Jingyu broke into Mount Emei secretly, stole the Tianxiang wood, and attracted the men in black robes and Bei Pluto to help the mountain, I couldn't sit still anymore. I immediately entrusted Senior Brother Yunyang to rush to Mount Emei in person and bring him to Mount Emei. Bring Mu Jingyu back to investigate what happened."
In the crowd, a voice came out of nowhere and shouted: "Headmaster Tianyang, we all know what you said, there is no need to repeat it. What we want to know now is, has Jiuhua Mountain found out the situation? Mu Jingyu Whether you are the young master of the black-robed man or not, what explanation should you give to Emeishan!"
This voice came suddenly, and besides, it came from the crowd below. No one paid attention to who shouted it. And after his voice fell, it also caused others to echo.
Seeing the noise getting louder and louder, Master Tianyang said: "Comrades, you are right to ask. After this period of investigation, our Jiuhua Sect has indeed found out that Mu Jingyu was only framed by the man in black robe, not one of them." Man."
"As for the Emei Sect, I will naturally have an explanation." Master Tianyang turned to Master Wuming and said: "The Tianxiang tree is an ancient treasure, and one of it was broken because of Mu Jingyu. Since he is my disciple of Jiuhua Mountain , the losses caused to the Emei Sect will be borne by our Jiuhua Sect. This leader specially selected dozens of treasures to compensate the Emei Sect, hoping to obtain the forgiveness of the leader Wuming."
Master Wu Ming snorted coldly and said: "Humph, head of Tianyang, don't blame me for not giving you this face. That fragrant tree is a sacred thing passed down from ancient times, and if you use one in Kyushu today, you will lose one! Can you make up for it with just a few treasures?"
"That's right!" Master Tongxuan, the leader of Wuji Ruins, followed up and said: "Furthermore, you said that Mu Jingyu was wronged, did you really mean that he was wronged? During this period of time, his relationship with the man in black robe is unknown. It’s not for nothing, but it’s something everyone knows. If you can’t come up with some real evidence, how can you convince us?”
Xi Yangzi came forward to smooth things over and said: "Hey, what the Master of Tongxuan Ruins said is wrong! I remember that a few months ago, our nine sects had discussed this matter in Lingjue Temple, and they either decided that Mu Jingyu was Are you being wronged? Why now...the market owner is asking for this matter again."
Wan Li Qingtian shouted: "Xi Yangzi, when we were at Lingjue Temple, you were the ones who kept covering Mu Jingyu, saying that he was framed. I, Guiyuan Villa, Wuji Ruins, and Wuzhuang Temple do not agree with this. ! Besides, if he was not with the men in black robes, how could he mobilize them to help the North Pluto to appear behind Mount Emei in time and steal the Tianxiang wood!"
Shangguan Xixi, who was sitting on the other side, said coldly: "Wanli Qingtian, today Tianyang Zhenren and Wuming's head are dealing with Mu Jingyu's private invasion of Mount Emei to steal Tianxiang wood. You don't need to catch him for illicit affairs." Don’t let go of the robe’s matter! If you really want to say something, it’s better to wait until the matter is understood and find another time to discuss it.”
Although they had discussed it a few days ago, they used this matter to argue at the Taoism Conference, which made Han Wenyuan think that there was a disagreement between them. But when they really got into an argument, they immediately responded tit for tat, and it didn't look like they were cheating at all.
"Amitabha!" Seeing signs of anger on both sides, Master Puru quickly stood up and said: "Everyone, everyone, what the Lord Shangguan Palace said is right. This matter is between the Jiuhua Sect and the Emei Sect. Let's sit down today. Here, I am just a witness, hoping that the two factions can put aside their prejudices and shake hands to make peace, so as not to hurt the harmony between the righteous people."
"Hurt the harmony? Hum... hum..." Head Wu Ming sneered and said: "If Head Tianyang was really afraid of hurting the harmony, he would not protect a traitor who had left the Jiuhua Sect long ago. !”
Mu Jingyu didn't expect that Master Wuming would hold on to him just for a formality. He quickly considered in his mind whether she was really angry because of the Tianxiangmu incident and first pretended to have the intention of the previous plan, and then took the opportunity to insist on dealing with her, or was it because of Di Nanxun and Suci?
Thinking of this, he raised his eyes and looked forward, and saw Master Wuming looking at him coldly. From the latter's eyes, he immediately understood Master Wuming's true purpose.
Immediately he said loudly: "Master Wuming, Jingyu knew that he sneaked into Mount Emei and stole Tianxiang wood, which was a taboo of the Emei sect! It's just that there was a reason for it. In order to help Bi Yun heal his wounds, detoxify and refine the antidote, he had no choice but to do it . And... I, Mu Jingyu, promise that apart from that, I have nothing to do to the Emei Sect and the head of Wu Ming, and I will not dare to do such things in the future. I hope that the head of Wu Ming can look at Mu Jingyu. For the sake of sincere remorse, Jingyu will let this junior go."
The first half of Mu Jingyu's sentence seemed to be acknowledging his mistake and begging for forgiveness from the head of Wuming. But the second half of the sentence was what he really wanted to say, which was to tell Master Wuming clearly that he would strictly guard the affairs of Di Nanxun and Suci and decided not to tell them, so she could rest assured.
