Mu Lingtian's health improved much faster than expected, and his mental state was also much better. There was no problem with his movements. Although he still looked weak and kept coughing, it was no longer a serious problem.
Tang Jing and Wu Yi were practicing martial arts every day, Luoxue was looking after Mu Lingtian, and Tang Wanting could do whatever she wanted. Mu Lingtian had a very leisurely life these days.
Mu Lingtian had been wanting to talk to Su Yurong alone these days, but didn't know how to speak.
Luoxue went to prepare medicine for Mu Lingtian. There were only Mu Lingtian and Su Yurong in the room. Mu Lingtian hesitated: "Ahem...that...Yurong..."
"What's wrong?" Su Yurong looked at Mu Lingtian strangely.
Mu Lingtian looked at Su Yurong: "You...did someone force you to join Xuanmen?"
Su Yurong looked at Mu Lingtian in surprise: "Why do you ask that?"
Mu Lingtian was silent for a moment: "Is it because of me and the Sixteen Swords of Zhuxian? You have no choice but to..."
Su Yurong did not answer, but smiled faintly: "It doesn't matter, does it?"
Mu Lingtian knew that Su Yurong did not deny it, which was almost equivalent to admitting it. He was a little anxious: "I..."
Su Yurong knew what Mu Lingtian wanted to say, so she interrupted Mu Lingtian: "Lingtian, I have something to ask you! I know you like a peaceful life and don't like the fighting in the world. And you don’t care about this so-called world, so why don’t you give them the Sixteen Swords of Killing Immortals? In this way, you can live the life you want."
"ah?"
Mu Lingtian had never thought about this question, and when faced with Su Yurong's rhetorical question, he was a little confused.
"Let me tell you, the reason why you are unwilling to hand over the Sixteen Swords of Zhu Xian is just because you know that if you hand over the Sixteen Swords of Zhu Xian, then the whole world will be a bloody storm. You can imagine what the world will be like. That's what you don't want to see. That's why." Su Yurong looked at Mu Lingtian with a smile on her face: "There are some things that no matter how difficult they are, you have to do it. Just do it. And everyone is the same, they just do it differently.”
Of course Mu Lingtian understood what Su Yurong meant: "But... you don't have to..."
"You don't have to, right?"
How could the stupid Mu Lingtian be able to speak louder than Su Yurong? Faced with Su Yurong's rhetorical question, he could only remain silent!
Mu Lingtian had the bloodthirsty madness of Orchid Demon Blood in his body, so he recovered much faster than ordinary people, and rested for a few days. There were still so many things to do, so Mu Lingtian proposed setting off.
After several heated discussions, the last few people finally started to set off again.
Although Mu Lingtian's injury was much better, Su Yurong could not rest assured. After much consideration and persuasion, Su Yurong decided to escort Mu Lingtian and others to Yuquan Pavilion.
The six people slowly drove towards Youyue Island.
The night was getting dark, and the six of them rested in a small town.
A dark shadow floated past Su Yurong's window, and a strange fragrance floated into Su Yurong's room.
Su Yurong, who was sleeping lightly, instantly opened her eyes, opened the window, and through the moonlight, she saw a man in black wearing a black cloak in the distance!
Su Yurong jumped out of the window and followed the man in black.
Su Yurong followed the man in black to an open area outside the city. The man in black stopped and faced Su Yurong with his hands behind his back.
Su Yurong stopped behind the man in black. The man in black turned around, raised his hand and took out a golden token with the word 'Yin' engraved on it.
The person who came was none other than Elder Yin of Xuanmen. Su Yurong looked at the token and bowed: "So it's Elder Yin. I wonder why you called Yurong here?"
"It's nothing major. It's just that the sect master asked me to ask how the Sixteen Swords of Immortal Execution is progressing?"
"Please also ask Elder Yin to report back to the sect master on behalf of Yu Rong. Yu Rong must do his best to protect Mu Lingtian and get the Sixteen Immortal Killing Swords for the sect leader as soon as possible. Don't let the Sixteen Immortal Killing Swords fall into the hands of the sky. "
Elder Yin nodded: "Well, very good, I will tell you for you. And the sect master asked me to ask you, why do you dare to make the decision privately?"
Su Yurong knelt down on one foot: "Yu Rong doesn't dare! I wonder what Yu Rong did wrong?"
"Let me ask you, has the sect master ever reminded you? He told you not to interfere in anything in the world. You only need to do your own thing. When did the sect master ask you to go with them?"
"How dare Yu Rong disobey the sect master's order? It's just that Yu Rong has the responsibility to protect Mu Lingtian. Now that Mu Lingtian is injured, he still insists on going to Youyue Island to get Youyue Xuan Ice Water, so he has no choice but to protect Mu Lingtian." Rong had no choice but to follow him to protect his safety and prevent him from falling into their hands."
"Okay, get up. This is just a warning from the sect master to remind you not to forget who you are? For what? You know!"
"Well, Yu Rong will always keep the words of the sect master in mind!"
Elder Yin nodded: "Well, the sect leader said, if that's the case, then you can help Mu Lingtian and find out what happened to the Mu family back then."
Su Yurong was a little confused: "Why? Didn't the sect master ask me not to interfere in these things?"
"Ask what you should ask, but don't ask what you shouldn't. As a mysterious lady of our sect, don't you understand such a simple truth? Moreover, the master of the sect always has his own intentions when doing things. We just have to obey. Don’t ask why.”
"Yes, Xuannv respects your destiny and will definitely live up to the expectations of the sect master!"
Elder Yin nodded: "Well, go ahead, the master is waiting for your good news."
Su Yurong left and returned to the inn. She didn't understand why the sect master suddenly gave her such an order. Could it be that helping Mu Lingtian find out about the Mu family would be of any benefit to Xuanmen? Or is the Mu family's matter related to heaven? But if this is true, then the sect leader must know the ins and outs of what happened back then. Why not just find someone to tell Mu Lingtian? Do you have to take such a careless detour and let Mu Lingtian investigate? What's the secret in this?
Although she couldn't understand it, it was obvious that such an order was very beneficial to her. At least she didn't have to worry about anything. She could help Mu Lingtian find out what happened to the Mu family in an open and honest manner.
But now, except for the righteous people in Jianghu who regard Mu Lingtian as a thorn in their side and loyal to them, for the killers, if Mu Lingtian lives for one day, they will not be able to hold their heads up, and Mu Lingtian is their shame. Although Wuming's first assassination attempt failed, it did not mean that he gave up.
Wuming doesn't do anything he's not sure about. Although he is a killer, he never takes his own life for granted, so he must have a new plan.
