For a whole month, the four groups arranged by Master Taier achieved nothing.
Ling Zhongtian, together with half of the disciples of Lingxiao Pavilion, and the Sharman tribe who cooperated secretly, searched almost a thousand miles of sea, but could not find Mu Jingyu at all. It can almost be concluded that the three of them were either taken into the void space by the Xu Zi Lingzhu and do not know whether they will live or die, or they were kidnapped by some strong person.
However, Master Taier and Jin Buhuan activated Tianji Pavilion and Wangxian Tower at the same time, secretly searching the entire Jiuzhou, but found nothing.
What's puzzling is that no matter what the situation is, it won't be more than a month before he shows up. This makes everyone puzzled.
Of course they didn't expect that Hua Mancheng, who seemed to have a mediocre cultivation level, could actually suppress the Xu Zi Spirit Pearl, and also brought Mu Jingyu, Bi Yun, and Yun Mo to Yukun Palace to help him subdue the Xu Zi Spirit Pearl. . They also asked everyone in Jade Kun Palace to keep the secret secret and not let anyone know about it.
As for the situation of the other two roads, they are different.
Let’s talk about Master Tongxuan first. Since he obtained the Jiuyao Xuanguang Chain, he asked the other three sects to return to their sects, while he led his disciples back to Wujixu.
Since then, he has stayed behind closed doors, and even the disciples of the four sects have stayed safely in their respective sects. From the outside, there doesn't seem to be anything unusual.
However, people like Master Taier and Shangguan Xixi learned about his acquisition of the Jiuyao Xuanguang Chain from Fairy Chimei. Otherwise, no one else would notice it at all.
As for Lingjue Temple, the situation is much more complicated. After Elder Liao Wu brought Qingniu Jing and Longtian Clover back to the temple, he first imprisoned the two in the Forest of Steles, and then slowly interrogated them. Although Shangguan Xixi wanted to find a reason to see the two of them, they were all turned away by Elder Wu.
Just when Shangguan Xixi was thinking of another way, he didn't know that he had been missing. Following two old men in black clothes with ghost faces and animal faces, four men in black clothes, obviously under one of them, suddenly attacked Lingjue at night. Temple!
They should have explored the place where Qing Niu Jing and Long Tian Xiao were imprisoned. He successfully entered the Forest of Steles as soon as he took action, without giving Elder Wu a chance to react. Not only did they successfully rescue the two people, but they also injured many people in the temple, including the elder Wu, who was also seriously injured.
Through this incident, it was confirmed that Qingniu Jing and Longtian Clover were actually the old man in black!
Because in the previous fights, the two men in black had high levels of cultivation and could also perform magic techniques. Elder Liaowu and Bei Pluto were no match for them together. Why were the Qingniu Jing and Longtian Clover in Zhongming Mountain, and later in the Beihai Mermaid Tribe, insufficient in their cultivation?
At the beginning, almost everyone who had no idea thought they were wrongly accused. Until this time, four men in black raided Lingjue Temple. When Shangguan Xixi was also in the temple, Qingniu Jing and Longtian Clover forcibly injured Elder Wu in front of everyone. If it wasn't for the old relationship with Shangguan Xixi, he would have been injured in the hands of the two of them!
Shangguan Xixi was so surprised that he didn't have time to think carefully about what Qing Niu Jing and Long Tian Shu said when they left Lingjue Temple. They wanted to go out to find the whereabouts of Mu Jingyu and Bi Yun, so he called the remaining people overnight to discuss this matter. misfortune.
Because they knew clearly that Qingniu Jing and Long Tianxiao were not men in black, but deliberately found people pretending to be men in black for their plan. Now, not only did they reveal their true cultivation, but they also escaped from Lingjue Temple with four other men in black, which made them question their previous judgment.
Could it be said that Qingniu Jing and Longtian Clover are really the hidden old men in black? When they found the two of them and asked for help, they deceived Mu Jingyu, Elder Wu, Master Tongxuan and others, first they deliberately agreed, and then they wanted to take advantage of the Sharman tribe to gather forces from all sides and try to conquer the four sects of Wujixu. Catch them all in one fell swoop, forcing Elder Wu to take the opportunity to hide behind his back and suddenly take action!
However, due to changes in circumstances, he had to show weakness and was taken away by Elder Wu. Now four men in black brought news that Mu Jingyu, He Biyun, and his whereabouts were unknown, so they revealed their true identity and broke out of Lingjue Temple!
This judgment made everyone unable to believe it, but they also did not dare not believe it!
In the next half month, several people decided to join forces to find the whereabouts of Qingniu Jing and Longtian Clover. Not only did he want to confirm whether the two men were men in black, but he also wanted to persuade them to stop. Because during this period, three small sects had been massacred by the two of them.
Jianning City, located in Dongji Shengzhou, has been extremely lively these days. Not only all the righteous sects, big and small, gathered here, but also many unconventional small sects and numerous casual cultivators gathered here.
There is no other reason, because after Qingniu Jing and Long Tianxiao escaped from Lingjue Temple half a month ago, they told the world a few days later that they should hand over Mu Jingyu and Bi Yun. They also set a date, limited to every five days. As long as there is no whereabouts of Mu Jingyu and Bi Yun, they will get rid of a small sect.
At the beginning, no one believed it. It wasn't until a small sect was massacred that everyone believed that Qing Niu Jing and Long Tian Xiao were not threatening, but serious.
Within the next ten days, Qing Niu Jing will announce in advance the next sect to be eliminated. At the beginning, the Shangxiajiumen would send people to protect them and try to capture the two of them. However, after two sieges, they not only failed to save these small sects, but also lost many men.
After another five days passed, the Qingniu Jing announced that he would destroy the Shangguan family, which was ranked eighth among the lower nine sects in Jianning City, and then attracted various forces to gather here.
The lobby on the first floor of Luoxiaju, the largest restaurant in Jianning City, was already overcrowded. Three middle-aged men and women dressed in simple clothes and not showing any signs of family stepped into the restaurant.
The man walking at the front was around forty years old, with steady steps and sharp eyes. However, a silver mask covered his eyes, adding a bit of ruthlessness. At a glance, you can tell that his cultivation level is not weak, at least at the Guiyuan realm. Although at his age, he has reached the realm of Guiyuan and cannot be compared with the disciples of the Shangjiu Sect. But considering that he has no sect and is just a casual cultivator, it is commendable.
"Xiao Er, Xiao Er!" The man narrowed his eyes a few times and shouted.
"Sir, what are your orders?" Upon hearing the call, a waiter hurriedly jotted down the food and drinks ordered by the guest at the table in front of him, and hurriedly ran to him.
"I see there is no room on the first floor. Is there still room in the private room on the second floor?" The man in the silver mask raised his eyes and looked around, then looked at the stairs leading to the second floor.
"Is this..." The waiter hunched his waist and said with a smile, "Sir, I'm really sorry. The second floor has been booked by the heads of the four major sects in this city, and no one else is allowed to go up. Otherwise, I'll give it to you. How many of you will add another table?"
"Hmph, what kind of big sects are there in Jianning City?" The man in the silver mask snorted disdainfully: "It's just Lianci'an, Daqimen, Qiankun Villa, and Qingyimen. I almost forgot, there is still another tomorrow. The non-existent Shangguan family. If they dare to claim to be a famous sect, wouldn’t they ignore all the upper and lower sects?”
The silver masked man's voice was not loud, but it was still heard by some people nearby. They all looked back, but did not say anything to refute.
Because so many people have poured into Jianning City in recent days, who knows who’s background. Besides, they all came to see how Qingniu Jing and Longtian Clover destroyed the Shangguan family, and whether the righteous factions could catch them, so they naturally didn't want to meddle in their own business.
"Keep your voice down." There was a man standing behind the silver mask. He looked about the same age as him, but there was a hint of weakness in every move he made. Even his voice was deliberately fake. He was obviously a woman.
"Anyway, we are here to get information. Can't we sit anywhere? Besides, there are more people on the first floor, so we can know more. Why do you have to go to the second floor?"
"Bi..." As soon as the man on the right came out of his mouth, he knew that his voice had not changed and was the original female voice. He quickly said in a hoarse voice: "Mr. Bi, since Brother Mu wants to go to the private room on the second floor, he must be there. Logically speaking, we should just listen to his arrangements."
"Sister Mo'er." The person on the left was so anxious that he didn't care to change his voice: "Now everyone in the world is looking for us. Jingyu doesn't want to hide his whereabouts. He actually deliberately seeks trouble in case there is a conflict with someone. , Aren’t you worried that you can’t hide your identity?”
Obviously, these three middle-aged men who deliberately changed their appearance were Mu Jingyu, Bi Yun and Yun Mo who had not been seen for a long time.
A month ago, Huamancheng brought Mu Jingyu to the Dragon Veins of Kunlun Mountain, and after taking away everyone including the Qinglian Headmaster, it took him a full twenty days to surrender the Xu Zi Spirit Pearl. No longer in trouble, Mu Jingyu.
Although when the two of them returned to Jade Kun Palace, Bi Yun and Yun Mo, as well as Qinglian Headmaster and Xi Yangzi asked Huamancheng how he did it. But Hua Mancheng and Mu Jingyu kept silent, and no one revealed anything.
Seeing that Mu Jingyu was fine, Huamancheng took people back to Hidden Wind Valley on the excuse that he had lost too much spiritual energy due to dealing with the Xu Zi Lingzhu.
Mu Jingyu, who stayed behind, after learning what happened in Jiuzhou, ignored Qinglian's request to stay and insisted on leaving Jade Kun Palace to find Qingniu Jing and Long Tianxiao. He insisted on finding out. Is he the man in black?
Although Qing Niu Jing would announce the news in advance every time he wanted to massacre a sect, the Far North was thousands of miles away, and Mu Jingyu failed to catch up twice.
This time, I heard that Qingniu Jing and Longtian Clover were going to lead four men in black to destroy the Shangguan family in Jianning City, so they worked non-stop one day in advance and finally arrived in Jianning City.
"Yun'er, Mo'er, these people are all disciples of some small sects in Jiuzhou, or casual cultivators with low level of cultivation. What can we know from their mouths? Instead, they are the four masters sitting in the private room on the second floor. Sect, what you know must be better than what they know. If I don’t listen to what the four sect leaders say, what news can I get by staying on the first floor?"
After Mu Jingyu finished speaking, without waiting for Bi Yun to object, he reached out and took out a piece of silver and put it into the waiter's hand: "Haha, the three of us like to be quiet and don't like to move. As you can see, the first floor is too noisy and affects us. Let’s eat and drink. Please ask the waiter to be accommodating and just find a secluded private room to ensure that the four masters are not disturbed.”
The waiter weighed the coins in his hand and thought to himself, anyway, the second floor is a big place, with more than 20 private rooms, and the four heads only occupied one in the south corner. As long as these three people are arranged in a private room on the north side that is a little further away, wouldn't it be no problem? I can still get a piece of silver for free, so why not do it.
Putting the money into his arms without leaving any trace, the waiter whispered: "Three guests, the younger one can take you up. But don't speak loudly, so as not to cause the displeasure of the four heads. Because you should have heard Oh, the Shangguan Family... Hehe, the four of them must be in a bad mood."
"This is natural." Mu Jingyu promised: "The three of us have no sects, how can we be the opponents of the four leaders? We just want to join in the fun, but we don't dare to get into trouble."
"As long as you understand, sir, that's fine." The waiter first took the three of them to the side, and then led Mu Jingyu upstairs while serving the dishes in the private room on the second floor.
"Three guests, please come this way." When they got upstairs, the waiter motioned to the three of them to step softly and pushed open a private room in the north to let them in. Before leaving, he did not forget to say: "Four chefs The door is in the private room opposite you, so you three must not speak loudly. Otherwise, the younger one will inevitably be punished."
Mu Jingyu said: "Don't worry, we promise not to implicate you."
