After some pleasantries, I found out that the other two were just like him. They participated in this escort mission just by the way. The real purpose was to go to the front line for some experience.
The two sides began to talk about their current situation. Unlike Mo Juren, the two of them have spent most of their time in retreat in the cave in the past few years. With their good qualifications and sufficient resources, they have achieved good results.
Bai Xuan has excellent qualifications, and her cultivation speed is naturally not slow. According to her, she estimates that she will be able to break through to the middle stage of foundation building in another year and a half. As for Wang Ping, his spiritual roots are slightly inferior, but he is born with a special physique. What's more, he is diligent enough and can endure the loneliness of hard training, and his progress is no worse than the previous one.
Of course, there is still a clear gap between this speed and Mo Juren. You must know that the two of them advanced to the foundation building stage much earlier than him, but now they are overtaken by them. It is surprising and also a bit unspeakable envy.
"I remember that Junior Brother Mo seems to have the qualifications of a pseudo-spiritual root. How can he practice so fast? Is there any secret?" Bai Xuan seemed to have remembered something and asked suddenly. When Wang Ping heard this, he frowned and said,
"This is Junior Brother Mo's secret. Senior Sister, it's better not to pry."
"I just suddenly remembered it. Just ask, junior brother, don't take offense." Bai Xuan apologized quickly. After all, everyone has their own secrets, and it is inappropriate to forcefully inquire.
"It's okay." Mo Juren had already expected such a situation, so he didn't panic and replied directly,
"My spiritual root qualifications are indeed not high, but I have a special five-element body. Coupled with a large amount of resource support, I can achieve extremely fast cultivation speed."
"The body of the five elements is an extremely rare top-level physique." Wang Ping suddenly realized that he had a special physique just like himself.
After all, it involved a secret, so he couldn't ask any more questions, so he immediately changed the subject and said, "I would also like to thank Junior Brother Mo. Tianhua Tower has a generous supply of spiritual stones every month, which has greatly contributed to my cultivation. help."
"It's just a trivial matter, senior brother, why should you be so outrageous? What's more, you two have also done a great job, and you deserve to be rewarded."
This was true, but Wang Ping did not dare to really take credit. He did contribute, but it was nothing more than a simple effort. He had never expected to receive such a huge reward.
"Okay, you two, you are not outsiders. You are so polite when you speak, which makes me feel a little uncomfortable." Bai Xuan interrupted the two of them with a sweet smile, turned to look into the distance, and changed the topic,
"The little Golden Feather Eagle has also broken through to the second level. Junior Brother Mo must have spent a lot of resources on it over the years, right? It can be seen that the master's original choice was not wrong. Junior Brother is indeed a good and competent master."
"Well...it does cost a lot." A trace of unnaturalness flashed in Mo Juren's eyes, and it passed quickly, but a look of extreme pain appeared on his face at the right time.
Seeing this, Bai Xuan couldn't help but smile and continued:
"Junior brother, there is no need to feel too distressed. If you do this, at least the master will be extremely satisfied. You may not understand the relationship between her and the Golden Feather Eagle. It is definitely not comparable to an ordinary master and servant. The other party was just when the master entered the immortal world. He followed her when he was on the road. For nearly a hundred years, he has been with her, fought side by side, and even saved her life many times. It is no exaggeration to say that the two of them are relatives who depend on each other for life. "
After a pause, he continued,
"Don't underestimate the Golden Feathered Eagle. As a rare metallic spiritual beast, its potential is extremely powerful.
Putting aside the defense and attack aspects, its unparalleled flight speed alone is enough to dwarf most birds and spiritual beasts.
Moreover, it is not weak in defense and attack. Whether it is an indestructible golden feather armor or the ability to transform and condense a golden blade, it is an extremely powerful natural magic. "
"That's it." After listening to Bai Xuan's explanation, Mo Juren nodded slightly, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel something in his heart. Elder Gu Ying's ability to earn the title of 'Golden Feather Fairy' must also be related to the Golden Feather Eagle. Now that we know that the two have such a deep relationship, Xiao Jin's identity is even more critical, as it is an important link between the other and himself.
Time passed little by little, and dozens more rays of light appeared from mid-air, and flew close to them in the blink of an eye. When he saw the two figures in front of him, Mo Juren couldn't help but feel something in his heart.
He knew both of them, especially the latter, who was his old acquaintance 'Lu Tianmeng', and the other party was back.
You must know that in the breakout battle that day, the other party and Xuan Le were the targets of the demonic attack. It was really beyond his expectation that they could escape like this.
As for the former, it was Lu Tianmeng’s mentor, another elder named Chen in Wanling Hall.
Mo Juren didn't know much about this person. He only knew that he was a casual cultivator, and later he grew up and broke through to the realm of alchemy. Because of his profound achievements in cultivating spiritual beasts, he was appointed as one of the elders of Wanling Hall. Moreover, it is rumored that this person is particularly good at driving spiritual beasts, and his strength should not be underestimated.
The appearance of the other party means that all personnel have been assembled. However, this mission actually required two monks in the Dan Formation stage to be jointly responsible for escorting it, which shows how much the sect attaches great importance to it.
"Could there be any dangers on the way?" Mo Juren couldn't help but guess.
All personnel had arrived. At this time, Elder Gu Ying no longer remained silent. She opened her lips slightly and sent a message to the front.
Suddenly the big golden feathered eagle began to move, and the whole body was filled with golden light. The body that was originally only more than ten feet tall began to expand rapidly, and increased several times in the blink of an eye.
This ability to change body size at will surprised countless Foundation Establishment Stage monks present.
Mo Juren was no exception. He glanced at Xiao Jin subconsciously and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, he didn't know when the other person would be able to awaken such a talent.
Business was important, so he also whispered to the front. Xiao Jin understood and glanced at his mother reluctantly. Then he flew back quickly and obediently entered the spirit beast bag.
In the area ahead, the old man surnamed Lu had already started to move and said something to the surroundings. The burly monks he saw grabbed the corner of the cart one after another. It seemed that the weight was not light, and veins suddenly appeared on the back of their hands.
The next moment, ten large vehicles floated into the sky at the same time, flying slowly toward the back as wide as the Golden Feather Eagle Square. As for the remaining ten vehicles, they flew down to them with a wave of Elder Gu's slender hand.
At the same time, the monks at the bottom of the valley also took up the escape light one after another, and also gathered towards the back of the golden eagle.
After all preparations were completed, Elder Gu, who was standing at the front, sent out another message. Suddenly, a colorless and transparent spiritual light shield emerged, protecting the entire back area. The golden feathered eagle followed closely behind, its huge wings that covered the sky and the sun spread out at a high speed, and then suddenly flapped, turning into a golden light and rising into the sky in the gusts of wind, and disappeared at the end of the sky in the blink of an eye.
…
"Junior Brother Mo, long time no see!"
Halfway through the flight, a familiar figure suddenly walked over, it was Lu Tianmeng.
At this time, the other party seemed to have met an old friend again after a long absence, with undisguised joy on his face.
"It turns out to be Senior Brother Lu!" Mo Juren was slightly surprised, and a hint of emotion appeared on his face at the right time.
"I'm ashamed to say that the situation was urgent that day, so I just ran away in embarrassment and didn't care about anything else. Now that my senior brother has returned safely, Mo is finally relieved."
"Thanks to Junior Brother Mo for remembering me, Lu is very grateful." Lu Tianmeng seemed to be really moved, and continued, "It was a fluke that I was able to escape in the end. Fortunately, I was lucky and finally saved a bad life."
"Surviving a catastrophe will be blessed later. Senior Brother Lu has experienced this catastrophe and his mentality has been tempered. It will definitely be of great benefit to his future practice."
"What a blessing, I'd rather be dead than alive now." After hearing this, Lu Tianmeng cursed in his heart, but there was a trace of gratitude on his face.
"Thanks to my junior brother's words, you and I have experienced life and death together. We are true brothers in adversity. We will have to move around more in the future."
"Of course you can." Mo Juren replied with a smile. However, seeing the other party's enthusiastic attitude, I felt a throbbing in my heart for no reason.
There is something wrong with this guy. He was so cold when they first met, but now his attitude has changed drastically. He is now approaching to strike up a conversation and is actively seeking friendship. This is obviously not normal.
As for what the other party said about experiencing life and death together, it was just a matter of running away when a disaster struck. Where does the saying of brothers in need come from? Such a far-fetched excuse was too bad for the other party to say.
Moreover, there is still an entanglement between the two parties over the murder of Lu Cheng. Even if the other party doesn't care, there is no need to suddenly change to such an extent, right?
As the saying goes, when you treat others with courtesy, you must ask for something, but I don't know what the purpose of this person in front of him is to put his dignity and pride aside in this way?
Lu Tianmeng naturally didn't expect that in just one breath, countless thoughts were already racing through the other person's mind, and he was even more wary of him.
If he had known this, he would not have chosen such a direct method. Perhaps he could have been more tactful, so that he could achieve his goal without arousing suspicion from the other party.
As for his purpose, it is actually simple, just to please a certain 'master'. Although that person didn't admit it, he could tell from his own knowledge that he must be obsessed with Mo's thief, and he might issue a task related to it at some point.
In this case, of course, he must make preparations in advance. It is best to deepen his relationship with the person named Mo. Even if he cannot be a life-and-death friend, he should at least be a good friend.
In this case, it will be extremely easy to betray the other party's information or stab him in the back in the future.
