Mu Qing has never let down his guard against these people in Hidden Valley.
So when Murong Yin asked about Jiang Shangxiu, Mu Qing did not hide anything, "I received a second mission from Quan Mansion, and there seemed to be arrangements for me in it. He should know about this."
"Oh?" Murong Yin's eyes flashed and he looked at Bai Hu beside him. If Jiang Shangxiu discovered Mu Qing's difference very early, then Bai Hu should be the one who knew about it.
Bai Hu secretly sighed at how wary Murong Yin was about him. After pondering for a moment, he raised his eyes and looked directly at Mu Qing, saying: "I knew about it but didn't know about his existence. I'm afraid Jiang Shangxiu didn't expect you to have such strength. But if Quanfu was involved before, it should be related to Murong Xing and the others."
That night in the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers, Jiang Shangxiu revealed something to Mu Qing. The second mission he took was related to the City Lord's Mansion. Bai Hu's guess was not far from the truth.
Mu Qing thought of the scholar-swordsman he met in the depths of Mudleg Alley, and didn't want to talk about it anymore. He frowned and asked, "How many days of free time do I have in the next few days?"
"Just wait until I notify you." Bai Hu glanced at the cold jade box held by Huai Cao Shi and muttered: "Ten days at most."
Murong Yin added seemingly casually: "After the fourth elder wakes up, you can go back to Suzaku City first."
Mu Qing raised his eyebrows and looked at Murong Yin.
Murong Yin's eyes were deep, and the faint fine lines at the corners of his eyes hid experience and wisdom. "Your mission is not over yet. It seems that there are only two months left."
After Mu Qing appeared in the fog of Ten Thousand Flowers Valley that night to turn the tide, information about Mu Qing flew to Murong Yin's desk from all directions. Hidden Vision in Zhang Lu's lineage is no less impressive than Quan Mansion in terms of intelligence gathering.
I took the initiative to talk about Jiang Shangxiu because he knew more than Mu Qing thought. I don’t know when things started to overlap in an interesting way.
Murong Yin said: "You have been an assassin in Hidden Valley since you finished training, so naturally you should do what you should do."
Mu Qing said in a deep voice: "Both sides of the Quan Mansion are passing on information. My previous mission has been declared over. This is something that I and the shopkeeper Chen Zuochen have agreed upon."
Murong Yin didn't expect that Mu Qing would consider looking for Chen Zhuo before returning to the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers. Instead, he gave him a high look. Looking at Mu Qing's stern face, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes and he said, "You want to go by yourself?" investigation?"
"That Zhang Anping was just a coachman, but he was the other person that day, a deeply hidden first-grade sword cultivator."
As Murong Yin spoke, his eyes fell on Mu Qing's face and never moved away. Mu Qing sneered and said, "There was a lot of commotion that day. Do you know everything that can be known about this matter?"
Murong Yin shook his head, smiled meaningfully, and asked, "Did you recognize him or did he recognize you?"
"What do you mean?!" Mu Qing's face remained calm, but his heart skipped a beat.
The incident in Wanhua Valley was urgent. After he came back, except in front of Zhang Shaoyao, he had been avoiding the matter. Especially after knowing his life experience, the things in Mudleg Alley were like gauze floating in front of the window. Amidst the rustling sound, he was told to reach out and open it.
As a result, before he was ready, he was told by someone he was wary of. This feeling of having no secrets was really overwhelming.
Mu Qing's sudden nervousness made Murong Yin more and more sure of the vague guess in his heart. The sharp look in his eyes flashed away. He had no intention of forcing Mu Qing to come down now and asked another question, "With your strength, Why didn't you keep him?"
Mu Qing calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Hidden Valley has long said that completing the mission is the first priority. He is a big variable at best, but the mission target is not him."
Murong Yin nodded, quite satisfied with Mu Qing's answer, "That's it. After you return to Suzaku City, if you want to obtain information, you can come to our stronghold."
Hidden Valley does everything possible in intelligence collection. The strongholds Murong Yin mentioned should be the ones Wang Yeqing mentioned before. Mu Qing nodded and did not refuse. He had already made up his mind to take the initiative to contact these people when he returned to Suzaku City to find out the time and area of their investigation.
Only when we start looking for Zhang Anping and those people can we force these people's attention away.
Murong Yin saw Mu Qing thinking deeply and thought he knew that he wanted to seek cooperation with Hidden Valley. He smiled meaningfully and said: "Chen Qing has been placed under house arrest for appearing in Wanhua Valley. I like his brother Chen Zhuo very much. , after you arrive at Suzaku City, you don’t have to worry about being surrounded by enemies on all sides, and you don’t have to avoid him like a snake or a scorpion. Only by working together can you accomplish what you want."
In Murong Yin's eyes, Mu Qing was like cannon fodder. At this moment, he felt that he could still control it in the future. He smiled at everyone in Wanhua Valley and said, "At this time, chaos is approaching, but your lineage of pharmacists is a little thinner." , if necessary, I can give you all these black robes in the Yellow Pine Valley."
"More good intentions from Zhang Lu." Ning Chu shook his head and refused. It is a good thing for them that things have not gotten worse. She has now focused all her thoughts on rescuing her master and rebuilding the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers.
Murong Yin turned to look at Huai Cao Shi, who suddenly stopped talking, his eyes moved slightly, and he said with a smile: "Wanhua Valley is still a lineage of pharmacists in Hidden Valley. Since you have returned to Wanhua Valley, you are naturally a member of us in Hidden Valley. According to Hidden Valley’s past rules, each elder is in charge of a lineage, and each lineage will have several deacons. Why don’t you be the deacon in charge of the outer disciples of Wanhua Valley?”
Huai Caoshi's eyes fell on Murong Yin's face, with a hint of realization in his heart and a hint of disgust on his eyebrows. Even when she returned to the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers, she never admitted that she was from the Hidden Valley. For people like Murong Yin, some seemingly good arrangements were all calculated.
Huai Caoshi just shook his head and didn't even bother to say anything.
Murong Yin ignored Huai Cao Shi's obvious refusal and said calmly: "This deacon will be fully responsible for the affairs of the outer disciples. In addition, it is also responsible for coordinating the affairs of Wanhua Valley and Hidden Valley." After saying this, he seemed to be confident. It is expected that Huai Cao Shi will agree.
Huai Cao Shi looked at Huangsong Valley, with a hint of understanding flashing in his eyes. His brows became increasingly tired, and he nodded and said, "That's it."
Murong Yin secretly sighed in his heart that the older ones knew how to assess the situation better. His eyes swept over Mu Qing, and he understated the recent events: "The lineage of pharmacists has been attacked by foreign enemies, and some of us have some misunderstandings, but these are all affected by This is not allowed to happen again due to provocation by people with ulterior motives outside."
"yes!"
Qinglong and others responded in unison, and the sudden and uniform movements of lowering their heads further proved the strength of what Murong Yin said.
Murong Yin's eyes moved slightly and he looked at Suzaku who was motionless.
Zhuque sighed inwardly and patted Mu Qing's shoulder, "Don't die." He walked to Murong Yin's side.
Mu Qingxu looked at Suzaku's back and quickly glanced at the masks of Qinglong and the others, feeling a little heavy in his heart.
He had met four of Hidden Valley's top combatants in a group of five in less than ten days.
The white tiger's fighting will is like the bright Snow King's sword, the cold killing aura is still fresh in Mu Qing's memory, and the Suzaku's close attack is like the fire rolling down from the sky. To be fair, even if he can attack Meng Zhang borrowed his strength and gained something from Suzaku's breakthrough, but he still couldn't say that he could definitely win against any of them.
What's more, there is the Valley Master who has been in seclusion, the "Murong" who is so rare that even Suzaku doesn't know his specific strength...
Murong Yin was a little surprised to find that the momentum of the boy in front of him had calmed down a lot. He glanced at Suzaku who came back to him and looked up at the sky. He felt a little wary that there was something hidden between the two of them.
Before leaving, Murong Yin looked at Mu Qing without any hope and asked: "What is the reason why you can rise to a great level?"
The air suddenly fell silent, and even Huai Cao, Shining Chu and the others looked at Mu Qing's back.
In fact, they are also extremely curious.
Mu Qing secretly thought that it was finally here. He shifted his gaze and looked at Murong Yin with clear eyes. He smiled and said in a decisive tone: "It's an opportunity I got when I went out, a magic weapon."
Hearing the word "magic weapon", even Suzaku looked at Mu Qing in surprise. As a result, Mu Qing's words became more and more irrelevant: "It should be a holy weapon, otherwise how could I be promoted to a higher level?" Big realm?”
"Hmph!" Everyone in Hidden Valley looked suffocated, and Murong Xiuming even snorted in depression.
Murong Yin shook his head, looked at Mu Qing and said: "I don't care whether you are deliberately pretending not to be arrogant or it's just your nature, I hope you can do a good job for Hidden Valley. Of course, as long as you do it, something like last night will... I can guarantee there won’t be a second time.”
"gone."
Murong Yin grabbed Murong Xiu Ming, straightened up and flew towards the distance. Bai Hu and Xuanwu immediately followed. Qinglong, who was almost speechless the whole time, slowed down a few steps. He glanced at Suzaku and smiled at Mu Qing: "I I guess you have an innate Muyuan body, otherwise your true energy would not be able to suppress her fire."
Before Suzaku could cast his piercing gaze, Qinglong stretched out his fingers and pulled on the mask, "Don't worry, I won't bring trouble on myself. You didn't want to practice dual cultivation with me before, and you definitely won't do it in the future."
Hearing Qinglong's words, the girls behind Mu Qing felt a wave of excitement in their hearts, and their eyes fell on Suzaku almost at the same time.
Suzaku met everyone's gaze, raised his chin, and said softly: "I'm afraid it will take me more than a month to digest and comprehend after I go back. Just say goodbye before I come to see you next time."
She hesitated and said again: "I didn't realize it before. I just realized how powerful the guardian is when I stood with you... Well, this is a predictable result. I hope you can cherish it and leave."
The morning wind suddenly brought a bit of clarity, blowing away some of the haze in his heart. Mu Qing turned his head and looked at the two figures retreating quickly in the direction of the valley entrance, shook his head, "Let's go."
"Um?"
"What's going on with dual cultivation?"
"Did you agree?"
