Hidden Valley's meeting place was chosen to be in the south of the city. When Mu Qing brought Bai Zhi and Liu Yueshan here, he almost thought he was in the wrong place.
On the streets, convoys carrying goods and people carrying large and small bags came and went, making it crowded and noisy.
Mu Qing frowned slightly. Hidden Valley would place a place to discuss important matters such as the founding of the sect in such an environment. In fact, it has shown some bad tendencies. At least some people in Hidden Valley have not yet understood Hidden Valley's current situation. .
Based on the relationship between Murong Jing and him, the word "hidden" in Hidden Valley could have been removed long ago.
Mu Qing thought to himself, and strode towards a closed shop on the side of the street. He looked at the golden willow leaf placed in a secret place in front of the door, his eyes moved slightly, and he said, "This should be it."
After pushing the door open and walking through a narrow aisle, the scene in front of Mu Qing suddenly became clear.
There is a small pond in the spacious atrium, with fresh green moss spread out on the rockery, and green lotus leaves swaying gently on the flowing water. The patio above brings down the natural light, making the originally dark and depressing environment There is a bit more mystery that is difficult to describe in words.
There was a female figure by the pond, leaning over to poke the small lotus leaves with her fingertips. When she heard the movement behind her, she turned around with an indifferent expression. When she saw Mu Qing clearly, her eyes lit up and she couldn't hide it. Came over in surprise.
Mu Qing smiled and nodded towards the woman: "Why don't Mrs. Wang go in?"
"It's a little stuffy in there. Let me come out for some air." When Wang Yeqing spoke, his eyes never left Mu Qing's body, looking left and right. In the end, he still seemed unsure and looked at Liu Yueshan behind Mu Qing.
"His injury healed so quickly?" Wang Yeqing asked.
Mu Qing did not put Liu Yueshan in trouble, and took the initiative to roll up his sleeves and show his arms to Wang Yeqing, "I heard from Bai Zhi that I was struck black by lightning. Don't you think I'm fine now?"
Wang Yeqing really took two steps closer and couldn't help but pinch Mu Qing's arm. In the end, he looked up in surprise and said, "This is really a miracle... but it seems quite normal for your kid."
Mu Qing smiled, looked at the closed rooms behind the pond, and asked, "I heard that the head of the Lin family is here too?"
Wang Yeqing shook his head and laughed: "The head of the Lin family will indeed show up today, but for another matter."
It's right to think about it. If Lin Langtian is involved in this kind of thing, there is nothing to talk about. Mu Qing nodded and guessed: "You will come out. It seems that the talks inside are not going well?"
Wang Yeqing glanced at him and said: "Whether it's me or your aunt and the others, today can only be regarded as witnesses. If you don't come, I will represent the City Lord's Mansion. In fact, it is difficult for Murong Jing to give Mrs. Much support.”
Mu Qing frowned, thinking that Murong Jing, who had a cold personality, had to face a group of people with their own thoughts, and sighed: "It's really complicated."
Wang Yeqing nodded and said: "Yes. Even if the Ten Thousand Flowers Valley breaks away, there are still thousands of people in the Hidden Valley. Although establishing a sect is obviously a good start, there are too many interests involved and it is not easy to handle."
Mu Qing was about to speak but stopped.
Wang Yeqing asked with a smile in his eyes: "You came here just after waking up to help her?"
Mu Qing said helplessly: "I actually thought it was something else that happened to me, but now that I have met her, I naturally want to try my best to help her."
Wang Yeqing turned around and took a look and said, "Actually, the result of establishing the Suzaku Sect today will not change."
Mu Qing frowned and said: "Even if there is no influence from others, with the strength of Murong Yun and her, as well as the support of people like Qinglong Jiang Shangxiu, they can actually convince people. But since it is not over yet, it proves that she I want a more stable sect.”
Wang Yeqing's eyes showed appreciation, and Mu Qing's vision gradually became like that of a city lord.
She looked clean and said with a smile: "The craftsmen who are participating in the reconstruction on Qingyun Street all know the importance of the foundation, let alone a sect? She is right to do this. The problem now is that some old guys also know I understood her thoughts, so I became a little bit more confident.”
Mu Qing's voice was slightly cold: "Murong Yin?"
"You guessed wrong." Wang Yeqing shook his head and said, "Murong Yin has always remained silent. It is Jiang Xingyuan who is blatantly opposing."
Jiang Xingyuan...
Mu Qing thought of the old man he had only met a few times, and his thoughts were a little complicated. Speaking of which, both he and Wang Yeqing in front of him once belonged to the Assassin lineage and were subordinates of this man.
"It seems that the Suzaku Sect no longer intends to retain the assassin lineage in the future. No one will watch helplessly as the place where they have been sitting for decades is smashed, and..."
Wang Yeqing paused and looked up at Mu Qing: "In the entire Assassin lineage, only Jiang Xingyuan has all the information about the Assassins. If I hadn't gotten to know you, I might have had to obey this man's orders if I encountered something like this today."
Mu Qing saw a trace of fatigue on Wang Yeqing's face and said with a smile: "Mrs. Wang, have you forgotten? I am also an assassin. If I hadn't met you, I would have to listen to this person."
Wang Yeqing smiled and said, "As long as you are prepared, let's all go in."
Under the leadership of Wang Yeqing, everyone stopped in front of the door of the room at the end of the corridor. People in the room heard footsteps outside the door, and their voices fell silent. After a moment, the door was opened from the inside, "Mrs. Wang, come in quickly. "
When Mu Qing saw that Chen Zhuo opened the door and only looked at Wang Yeqing, he felt amused and chuckled, causing this guy to look over impatiently.
"You...huh? City Lord! City Lord, you healed from your injury so quickly, why are you here?"
As soon as Chen Zhuo's voice came out, many people suddenly appeared at the door.
Mu Qing saw Murong Jing and Liu Weirui in the crowd at a glance, nodded to them, and then said: "I heard about the establishment of the Suzaku Sect, so I came to ask you, the head of the Suzaku Sect, if I can help you." Wherever it helps.”
Chen Zhuo raised his eyebrows, clapped his palms, and said with a smile: "The city lord came at the right time. If the Suzaku Sect wants to develop into a first-class sect in the future, it will definitely be inseparable from the support of the Suzaku City."
Murong Jing frowned slightly and glanced at Chen Zhuo. Chen Zhuo felt a chill behind him and immediately stepped aside in silence.
"How are you feeling?"
Liu Weirui approached Mu Qing and asked worriedly.
Mu Qing held her hand and said, "It's almost better now. I have to thank Senior Lin for his help, otherwise I might not have been able to withstand that catastrophe."
Mu Qing and Liu Weirui clearly said only some facts, but hearing it in the ears of others in Hidden Valley made those people's expressions suddenly become much more complicated.
Here, whether it was "Senior Lin" in Mu Qing's mouth or "withstanding the catastrophe", these were things that they did not dare to ignore.
In fact, although Liu Weirui said nothing, the people in Hidden Valley today are much more restrained than in the past.
Everyone returned to their seats knowingly, leaving the door open to Mu Qing.
At this time, Mu Qing looked at Murong Jing who was standing aside and not coming over. He took Liu Weirui's hand and walked over on his own initiative, asking, "What's wrong? Are you not happy to see me coming?"
Murong Jing's slender eyebrows moved slightly, she turned her back to the people in Hidden Valley, pouted, and said, "You shouldn't be here."
Liu Weirui said helplessly at this time: "Sister Murong doesn't want these things to trouble you. She said that you represent the city lord's palace in Suzaku City."
Mu Qing felt a little moved in his heart. When everything in Suzaku City was on the right track, being involved in Hidden Valley would indeed attract criticism, but did he care?
Mu Qing took the initiative to grab Murong Jing's hand hanging by his side and squeezed it gently, "What's mine is yours, and your business is my business. Do you still have such a clear distinction when we are an old married couple?"
"What old couple?"
Murong Jing's beautiful eyes widened and she saw a smirk on Mu Qing's lips. She suddenly understood that this guy was talking to the group of people behind her. She blushed so much that she just wanted to break free from Mu Qing's hand.
Mu Qing never let go. In full view of everyone, he took the hands of Murong Jing and Liu Weirui and came to the table.
Murong Yun was sitting at the top, and beside him were Murong Jing and Liu Weirui, but now there happened to be one more.
Mu Qing glanced at Chen Zhuo and nodded to Chen Zhuo who was standing aside. He calmly accepted the other party's kindness, and then he pulled the two women to sit down carelessly. His head tilted to one side.
"How come the city lord is interested in coming to witness the establishment of the Vermillion Bird Sect?" Murong Yun asked Mu Qing with a helpless smile in order to prevent the atmosphere from becoming cold.
Mu Qing was sitting between the two women. At this moment, he let go of their hands, nodded towards Murong Yun, and said in an unusually direct manner: "It's not a testimony, I just want to help the Suzaku Sect as much as possible."
Mu Qing glanced at the old man sitting next to Jiang Shangxiu, nodded to him, and then continued: "Everyone should know about my relationship with her, and I myself also spent some time in Hidden Valley. It was an unforgettable experience. Although I have left Hidden Valley now, I still have some affection for Hidden Valley, so naturally I will help if I can."
Murong Yun was actually very satisfied with Mu Qing's statement, but when his eyes glanced at Liu Weirui beside Mu Qing, he hesitated a little bit. He didn't know what he thought of, and he fell into deep thought for a while.
"When did you learn to speak in such a hypocritical way?"
A hoarse voice attracted everyone's attention. Murong Yun woke up from his meditation, quickly turned to look at the old man beside him, frowned and said: "Brother..."
Murong Yin ignored the reminder in Murong Yun's eyes and looked at Mu Qing indifferently. Mu Qing happened to be looking at him as well. As their eyes met, the atmosphere became cold uncontrollably.
Murong Yin glanced at Murong Jing and said to Mu Qing: "Although Xuanwu is dead, you must know that I am the mastermind behind many things. Can you still have feelings for Yin Gu?"
Murong Yun wanted to speak, but Mu Qing waved his hand to stop him.
Murong Yin's words could no longer be regarded as a test, but as a blatant provocation, but in Mu Qing's eyes they were a bit more hysterical.
Mu Qing smiled flatly: "Of course I don't have a good impression of you. Even if you continue to act like before, I won't feel any burden if I do something. But the question is, can you represent Hidden Valley?"
"The Valley Master has helped me a lot before, as well as Chen Zhuo and Jiang Shangxiu. They have done a lot of things within their ability. I am grateful to Hidden Valley, naturally because they are in Hidden Valley."
"You are deliberately provoking a split in Hidden Valley!" Jiang Xingyuan, who had been silent, slammed the table.
Mu Qing raised his brows, looked at Jiang Xingyuan, who had a serious look on his face, was silent for a moment, and said, "What if it is?"
"Everyone, please calm down." Murong Yun glanced at the people in Hidden Valley and said in a deep voice: "The newly established sect is called Suzaku Sect. From now on, Suzaku City and Suzaku City should be allies who help each other. I think we should give each other enough resources. Sincerity, to be honest, the current City Lord’s Mansion is far more powerful than our Hidden Valley.”
No one refuted, and now Liu Weirui was sitting quietly next to Mu Qing, which already represented too much meaning.
Murong Yun breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, struck while the iron was hot and said, "Actually, everyone should understand one thing. The Suzaku City of today is no longer the Suzaku City of the past, and we in Hidden Valley should also make the determination to change."
He looked at Murong Jing and said, "It's up to you to continue talking about some arrangements after the sect is established."
