Mo Juren had already informed the sect of the information in time. As he expected, the superiors did not take any active measures after learning about the situation. They just said that since he happened to be in the Nine Nations Alliance, he would stay here for a while. , wait for the development of things and report at any time. As for the others, there is no more.
It can be seen that both good and evil despised this Mulan invasion. They probably felt that it was no different from the past. With the Nine Nations Alliance standing up, the war could not spread to the rear.
There was no rush from above, and Mo Juren was happy to have his leisure time. As for the true situation of the war, he naturally selectively forgot about it.
After flying for more than ten days, we finally returned to Tiantian City again.
Looking at the still bustling and bustling scene in the city, I couldn't help but shake my head secretly. It had been so long, and the information from the Fengyuan Kingdom's front line had naturally been transmitted to the rear.
The result was good, it didn't attract much attention at all. It seems that the sharp increase in strength in recent years has also made the mentality of the Nine Nations Alliance somewhat inflated.
On the other hand, Li Huayuan and his two men, who had just experienced a life and death situation, were not so optimistic in their hearts.
"The grace of saving lives and the love of escorting this time will always be remembered by the two of us. In the future, if you need anything, please feel free to give us your orders, and we will not hesitate to go through fire and water."
As he said that, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Hong Fu beside him. The latter understood it and turned over his jade hand to reveal a white disc-shaped treasure the size of a palm.
"This is the yin and yang disk. It is a special rare treasure that I got by chance. It can communicate over long distances. This yang disk is given to fellow Taoists and can be communicated directly if there is anything important. Of course, even if there is nothing important, you can always keep it connect."
Mo Juren naturally heard the meaning of the other party's words, and obviously planned to further draw the relationship between the two parties closer. Putting aside the life-saving grace, his identity alone and his rare talent in a millennium are enough to make too many people covet him.
Naturally, he would not refuse such a mutually beneficial and win-win matter, and immediately put the things away.
The two of them were immediately overjoyed when they saw this, as long as they didn't refuse. Keeping in touch with this kind of existence with unlimited potential is definitely a matter of great benefit and no harm.
The two of them said goodbye immediately without any further delay. Before leaving, Li Huayuan specifically told him an address, which was Huang Maple Valley's contact point in Tiantian City. If anything happened during this period, you could go directly there to find him.
Looking at the two people's backs as they drifted away, Mo Juren's eyes flickered.
This time, Li Huayuan was saved by mistake. This person who was originally supposed to die in his fate was really unexpected.
Not only the other party, but his apprentice Liu Jing also changed his destiny because of him. In this way, the Li family owes him a lot.
Suddenly, he thought of the other party's identity. He was also Han Li's master, but not as pure. However, it cannot erase the fact that both sides are masters and disciples.
When Han Li returns in the future, perhaps he will feel less regretful.
Speaking of Han Li, I don't know what's going on with him now. He is probably still practicing hard in seclusion and preparing for the formation of elixirs. When things here are settled, it's time for him to go to Chaotic Star Sea again.
The number of spiritual stones he can carry this time is absolutely terrifying. With a market as huge as Tianxing City, he will strive to gather the resources needed to refine seventh-level or even eighth-level demon blood as soon as possible. By then, he will be able to lead to the Nascent Soul. The road will be smooth in the future.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little excited and looked forward to the future even more.
Putting away his chaotic thoughts, he immediately walked towards the crowd. Since the sect gave him a 'leisure' mission, he naturally couldn't leave in a short time.
It just so happens that the environment here is good, especially the business is relatively prosperous. You can take a walk while resting, and maybe you can find some needed resources.
However, after he had just taken a few steps, he was suddenly startled. He glanced somewhere in the air out of the corner of his eye, and then continued to move forward calmly.
…
At night, in a private room of a hotel somewhere.
At this time, Mo Juren was not practicing, but sitting alone in front of the window, drinking tea and admiring the night view outside.
As the headquarters of the Nine Nations Alliance and a pure 'city of monks', Tiantian City is also brightly lit at night and remains prosperous. Looking at it now, it is quite interesting.
Suddenly, his eyes suddenly glanced at the door and said in a calm tone: "We are already here, why are you so hesitant? Could it be that you are afraid?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door slowly opened with a creak, revealing a slender figure. The person who came was a woman, wearing a white dress and a cloak covering her face, but she still couldn't hide the elegance she exuded from the inside out.
"Did you already know that I was coming?" The woman walked closer and took off her cloak, revealing her peerless appearance. It was Nangong Wan whom she had not seen for many years.
"It's just a guess." Mo Juren smiled. He accidentally saw the other party during the day, and the latter also noticed him, so he was prepared. Not only had the tea been brewed in advance, but two tea sets were also placed.
Holding the pot, he filled the tea bowl on the opposite side and said with a smile,
"It's up to you to taste the taste of my spiritual tea. Others don't have such a good taste."
"That's really a little girl's honor." Nangong Wan was not polite, walked to the opposite side and sat down slowly. I have to say that this spiritual tea is really not simple. Even before I got close to it, I was already attracted by the rich tea aroma.
The tea set is also very special. It is actually made by refining some kind of top-grade spiritual jade. Not only does it look great, but the bowl also exudes a faint aura of pure spirit, which mixes with the fragrance of tea. Not only It doesn't look confusing, but complements each other.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, the guy in front of her really knew how to enjoy, and everything was the best. However, thinking about the other person's immeasurable net worth, it felt normal.
He stretched out his slender hand, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, his bright eyes suddenly lit up. It was indeed a good tea. Not only was the taste refreshing, it also contained a trace of strange power, slowly nourishing one's consciousness.
"This tea doesn't seem to come from Tiannan?" Nangong Wan suddenly put down the tea bowl and asked tentatively.
"Really?" Mo Juren's eyes flickered, but he did not answer the other party, but changed the topic,
"Do you also study tea ceremony?"
"I understand somewhat." Nangong Wan nodded and asked again with bright eyes blinking.
"I basically know some of the famous spiritual teas in Tiannan, but this one is different. Could it be that it comes from outside Tiannan, from the Mulan Grassland, or from the more distant Jin Dynasty..."
"..." The other party tried again and again, and Mo Juren couldn't help but shake his head slightly, and then said,
"If you have something to say, just say it. There's no need to beat around the bush."
"I..." Nangong Wan's face suddenly turned red after her thoughts were seen through. The reason why she came here at night was naturally for a purpose. However, when he suddenly thought of the identity of the person in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little tangled in his heart.
After a pause, he finally made a decision, his pink lips parted lightly and he said,
"Is...is he okay?"
"Who is he?" Mo Juren put down the tea bowl and chuckled.
Such a joking answer made the latter feel a little ashamed and angry, but thinking of the other party's incredible achievements over the years, he couldn't get angry anymore.
What's even more helpless is that the other person has saved her life in the past, and is that person's master. No matter what aspect, she has no reason to be angry with the other person.
"Why do you ask questions knowingly?" Nangong Wan sighed helplessly.
"He's very good." Mo Juren stopped teasing the other person and replied directly.
"Then...then why didn't he show up?" Nangong Wan couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Han Li was safe and sound. However, when I think about my situation, I can't be happy at all.
"I went to a distant place. The cultivation conditions there are incomparable to those in Tiannan. I have no plans to return in the short term."
"Da Jin? Where did he really go?" After hearing this, Nangong Wan suddenly showed a look of surprise.
"Uh..." Mo Juren didn't expect that the other party would directly come up with such an answer. However, considering that he had been away from Tiannan for thirty years, many people had the same guess. It was not surprising that the other party would think of Dajin.
He did not correct the other party, but picked up the tea bowl and drank by himself. Such an expression made the latter confirm his guess.
"He...did he say when he would come back?" Nangong Wan bit her red lips and asked again.
"Not sure." Mo Juren shook his head slightly.
"In short, it's impossible in a short time, maybe decades, or hundreds of years. In short, if you don't cultivate to a certain level, you won't come back."
"Tens to hundreds of years!" Upon hearing this, Nangong Wan frowned immediately, and there was an unspeakable complex light in her bright eyes.
"That's wrong." But at this moment, Mo Juren suddenly noticed something strange, looked at the other person for a while, and asked with some confusion,
"Why has your cultivation level improved so slowly after so many years?"
Nangong Wan is not an ordinary monk. Her qualifications are definitely among the top. Decades later, she is still in the early stage of forming pills, which is obviously abnormal.
Suddenly, an idea suddenly flashed in my mind, and I vaguely guessed something. Looking at the tangled look on the other person's face, my heart suddenly became enlightened.
"After the separation, it took me several years to recover. However, I encountered trouble in my subsequent cultivation..." Nangong Wan thought for a while and decided to tell the other party everything about the situation. After all, he is his savior, and he is Han Li's elder, so there is nothing wrong with revealing it to the other party.
"So, it was because of Li'er that you had inner demons, which made it difficult to practice these years?" The other party's answer confirmed his guess, and he paused and asked again,
"What are you going to do?"
"I have tried to forget, but I still can't." Nangong Wan sighed softly and said,
"There are only two ways to resolve the inner demons, either kill him or marry him. I...I..."
"Kill him, are you sure you can do it?" Mo Juren looked at him calmly, but he had already guessed the answer in his heart. Although this woman looks cold, she is no different from Gu Ying. They are just deliberate disguises. For people who really care, it's completely different.
"I..." Sure enough, Nangong Wan's expression became more and more hesitant, and she was speechless for a long time.
"Since you can't do it, do you plan to marry him?" Mo Juren's eyes flashed slightly and he asked again.
"If I marry him, will you agree?" Nangong Wan did not answer immediately, but asked instead. Hearing this, Mo Juren was startled and his expression became subtle.
"It seems that you have not been idle these years. You must have done a detailed investigation. You must know everything about him and Caihuan."
"Yes, I know everything." Nangong Wan sighed, but the expression on his face became more complicated. His eyes glanced at each other subconsciously, and he secretly thought in his heart that like a master, there must be a disciple, and both the master and the disciple were both playboys.
What's even more helpless is that she and Mo Caihuan are brothers and sisters, not to mention childhood sweethearts, at least they are childhood sweethearts. And she, not to mention her age, is actually a latecomer.
Does this count as destroying other people's feelings? Even if she didn't do it on purpose, there was always a feeling that she had snatched away someone's sweetheart. At least facing Mo Caihuan, she couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
Unfortunately, all of this was due to a combination of circumstances and was not her original intention. However, things have already happened, and it is useless to say more. As for making her forget Han Li, she tried more than once, but unfortunately she couldn't do it, and she even gave birth to inner demons.
In fact, when Mo Juren returned again more than ten years ago, she thought about finding him and asking for information about Han Li. However, he has been hesitating, mainly because of the other party's identity.
It's so awkward. Every time such an idea arises, it is instantly snuffed out and dragged around until now. If she hadn't happened to see Mo Juren today, she would probably have to drag it on.
Mo Juren was even more depressed than she was. It was obviously the emotional debt caused by that boy Han Li, so what kind of thing was it for his prospective father-in-law to worry about it?
Seeing the other person's expression of confusion and even a hint of pain, he couldn't help but sigh. As an elder, he really doesn't want to get involved in emotional issues, so they can solve it themselves.
However, he just had a way to deal with the other party's inner demons. He paused and asked again:
"I have a temporary solution. I wonder if you would like to try it?"
"Is there really a way?" After hearing this, Nangong Wan suddenly looked happy and replied quickly,
"If there is really a solution, I hope fellow Taoists will give you some advice. If a certain price has to be paid, as long as it is within my ability, I will not refuse."
"Do you know about Jiqing Sect?" Mo Juren nodded and asked again.
"I naturally know the famous Ji Qing Sect." Nangong Wan was slightly startled, wondering why the other party suddenly mentioned this sect.
"The Extreme Emotion Sect has a secret method called 'Forgetting Love'. As long as you successfully practice this method, you can quickly eliminate all distracting thoughts and emotions in a short period of time and enter an absolutely rational state.
However, this method is an auxiliary secret technique and cannot eliminate inner demons. Moreover, its timeliness is also limited. Even if you practice to great success, once you stop exercising, you will return to normal within a few days.
And you need to practice for a long time, and it is not yet known whether it will work in the end. "
