"You... don't be so playful. I'm not joking with you." The other party's nonchalant expression immediately made Yiyue feel a little angry. It is simply unreasonable that I am so worried about the other party, but in exchange for such lack of attention.
"Don't you have any way to deal with it beforehand?"
"No." Mo Juren answered very cheerfully, but it made Yinyue even more 'angry' and said helplessly,
"I thought you had a solution in advance, that's why you were so unconcerned, but it turns out you didn't! Mo Juren, why are you so confused? If you had known about it earlier, you wouldn't have made a deal with Lao Shizi, wouldn't you have killed the other party directly? better?"
"The matter has come to this, no matter how much you talk, it won't help. You might as well look at it more openly. Maybe I am the son of destiny, and the law of heaven will turn a blind eye to me and will not pay attention to my spiritual roots." Mo Juren smiled and joked, which made Yin Yue even more furious. She stared at someone with a pair of beautiful round eyes and said,
"Son of Destiny, what are you dreaming about? I think you are just distracted and cannot see the seriousness of the problem. It is better to find a way to deal with it quickly. Otherwise, once it comes true, it will be too late to regret it."
"This matter is indeed not a trivial matter. You'd better take it seriously." Xiao Qi nodded solemnly. Being a member of the demon clan, she knew very well how terrifying the way of heaven was. She especially remembered the thunder tribulation she had experienced when she transformed in the past. Life is worse than death.
Although she has not experienced the oath, she cannot ignore the fact that it is also bound by the laws of heaven. If she violates it, she will inevitably encounter backlash.
"If it really comes true and I can no longer continue practicing, what will you do? And Xiaoqi, what do you think?" Mo Juren did not explain, and instead asked the two women.
"I have become your weapon spirit. I have completely fallen into the pit of fire. What can you do? Xiao Qi, I suggest you slap this bastard to death when the time comes, so as not to be implicated by him." Yin. Yue was really angry and said angrily.
"I'm not the same, how can I dare to attack him." Xiao Qi sighed helplessly. However, seeing that the other party looked calm and composed from beginning to end, a trace of doubt arose in his heart.
This guy has always been cautious and can't really be confused. The reason why he is so unscrupulous must be because he relies on something, right?
Not only Xiao Qi, but also Yin Yue gradually came to her senses at this time. She vaguely guessed that the other party had already had a way to deal with it, but she just didn't tell them and allowed them to worry and guess. It was really abominable.
"You really don't plan to explain anything." Yinyue asked again, but unfortunately, Mo Juren remained silent and had no intention of revealing anything.
He has no spiritual roots, but he is able to cultivate, and his speed is even faster than that of the Tianling Root monks. This has already involved his most fundamental secrets, and naturally it is impossible to tell anyone, even your wives and daughters. No exception.
Although Yin Yue was his weapon spirit, he couldn't hide many things from him.
However, the auxiliary device is in a special situation. No one can see it except yourself. Even the refining bloodline is operated by the conversion furnace on its own. The other party will find it strange at most, but they will know nothing about the truth.
…
More than a month later, Mo Juren returned to Qiling Mountain again. During this period, he deliberately concealed his figure. He even chose to hide after entering the territory of Tianluo Kingdom and did not attract the attention of others.
Speaking of which, it took a total of about three months from the time I left the Cave Mansion, first to Liyang Valley, then to Yuanwu Kingdom, and now to return again.
From the beginning to the end, he tried his best to hide his whereabouts. Therefore, except for a few people, no one else knew about the situation. At least in the eyes of outsiders, he had always been in seclusion.
Gu Shuangpu's disappearance cannot be concealed. There is no need to wait for the succession ceremony in a few months. Dongmen Tu will know about it soon. It’s unclear what the other party’s reaction will be, but they will definitely not let it go.
But it is a bit difficult to get a deeper understanding and learn about the other party's death, at least it is impossible to find out in a short time. After all, he is still a strong person in the Nascent Soul Stage. Unless there are special circumstances, it is not easy to die.
Of course, there are never absolutes in the world. As long as you keep checking, you can always find some clues.
Dongmen Tu is the great elder of his sect and a strong man in the middle stage of Nascent Soul. There is no doubt about his strength and influence.
Mo Juren is not afraid of the other party. Firstly, he is strong enough to protect himself. Secondly, he has full wings. Even if he is really exposed, the other party may not be able to do anything to him.
However, he was still in the elixir formation stage and didn't want to conflict with it. When he breaks through Nascent Soul, he will have the strength to crush the opponent, and it won't even matter if he has a direct showdown.
Dongmen Tu is not an emotional idiot. He can naturally distinguish what is more important. Even if he and Gu Shuangpu are 'deeply affectionate', they cannot be more important than the interests of the sect, the interests of the family, and their own interests. For the sake of a It would be unwise to break up with him as a spy.
Just as Mo Juren guessed, only about half a month later, Dongmen Tu noticed something.
The succession ceremony is so important. As the closest junior disciple, Gu Shuangpu has been silent. Even if the other party does not need to be responsible for the arrangements for the ceremony, they won't be silent, right?
This is obviously illogical and not the character of the other person. At least in Dongmen Tu's eyes, Junior Brother Gu would never remain indifferent to such an important moment.
I had heard that the other party was practicing a secret technique before. Could it be that he has not yet succeeded in practicing it and has been in retreat?
He didn't want to disturb the other party, lest it affect the latter's cultivation, so he just sent someone to inquire about it in a symbolic way. The answer he got immediately made him a little stunned. Gu Shuangpu left a few months ago and has not returned yet.
This was somewhat beyond his expectation, so he immediately took out a summons token and planned to ask a question, but as you can imagine, there was no response at all.
At this moment, Dongmen Tu was completely stunned. Even if there was something important, he would at least say something. What if he lost contact?
At this time, he didn't think about what the other party would do. He only thought that it might be a moment of negligence or other reasons that prevented him from responding, so he didn't take it seriously.
However, as the date of the main hall got closer and closer, Dongmen Tu finally felt something was wrong after contacting him several times but still without success.
Once could be an oversight, twice could be a coincidence, but if there is no response after several calls, it can only mean that something is very likely to happen to the other party.
In Gushuangpu Cave Mansion, Dongmen Tu came in person at this time, summoned all the servants in the manor, and then asked about the recent situation.
Unfortunately, Gu Shuangpu and his son wanted to act secretly. They were wary of anyone except themselves, so it was naturally impossible for them to disclose the information to others.
He only found out one thing, which was that Gu Yushan suddenly returned a few months ago. After that, for unknown reasons, the father and son left in a hurry and have not returned yet.
"Gu Yushan..." Dongmen Tu frowned, feeling that this matter must have something to do with this kid. Unfortunately, the clues stopped here, and no one knew what happened to Gu Yushan. He even called the other party's frequent friends within the sect one by one to inquire, but unfortunately he found nothing.
At this time, there were only a few days left before the succession ceremony, and Dongmen Tu had no time to spare, so he could only give up temporarily. It would not be too late to investigate after the ceremony.
What he didn't know was that after he asked Gu Yushan's many friends, one of them immediately took out a token and delivered a message after returning to his cave, and then calmly put away the token and returned to normal. .
Qingyan Peak, a cave somewhere.
At this time, Mo Juren was drinking tea and chatting with Han Yunzhi. He suddenly sensed something and took out a token. As a piece of information came into his mind, the corners of his mouth suddenly raised slightly.
"But what's the good news?" Han Yunzhi asked curiously.
"Dongmen Tu has begun to become suspicious, and is currently investigating. He has even asked all Gu Yushan's friends who have been with him for questioning." Mo Juren did not hide anything and replied with a smile.
"So fast?" Han Yunzhi asked with a slightly surprised and worried expression.
"I remember that Chen Yue was once a disciple from Spirit Beast Mountain. Could he..."
"Theoretically, it's impossible. Unless Dongmen Tu suspects that it was me, then the disciples of the Spirit Beast Mountain line will be paid attention to. And by then, even if some information is known, because of my arrangements, there is a high probability that it will happen. Directing his attention to the Hehuan Sect, such a result will inevitably make it difficult to continue the investigation, especially now that the sect's strength has been greatly reduced, he will most likely swallow his anger."
"Although there is an irresolvable hatred between us and Gu Shuangpu, we only know it in our hearts. At least we have never shown it on the surface. He doesn't doubt that we will take action, right?" Han Yunzhi asked again.
"Theoretically, it is indeed not possible, but there are no absolutes in the world. It is not impossible that such thoughts will arise one day. By then, the disciples from the Spirit Beast Mountain line will inevitably not become the object of suspicion."
"I just hope he won't be too suspicious." Han Yunzhi sighed, and then said, "If Chen Yue is really exposed in the future, how should we deal with it?"
"Of course the soldiers will come to cover up the water and the soil, just adapt to the situation." Mo Juren smiled slightly and continued,
"Don't worry, even if there are doubts about Dongmen Tu's status, facing the disciples of our sect in the Dan Formation stage, who are closely related to us and the Spirit Beast Mountain family, we will never mess around. .
Even if you know something about the situation, it is difficult to find out anything. The best possibility is to simply clarify it. If you have any questions, just ask me and other core personnel directly. As for Chen Yue, it doesn't matter. "
Speaking of Chen Yue, the two of them thought of their past experiences when they were still in the foundation building period. At that time, they went to Yuanwu Kingdom to perform a mission, but they never thought that something unexpected would happen. In the end, they could only avoid powerful enemies in Jiqing Sect, and later brought them with them. Many fellow sect members in the foundation building stage from the Spirit Beast Mountain arrived at the main sect of the Yuling Sect together.
These fellow sects in the foundation building period are considered the first batch of disciples to return to the main sect, and they are also the first to take root in Qiling Mountain.
Because at that time, Mo Juren used the foundation-building stage cultivation to counterattack the monks in the alchemy stage, coupled with the grace of saving lives, he completely conquered the hearts of these disciples. Later, under the deliberate management of him and Han Yunzhi, These people became more and more convinced of him.
As time goes by, Mo Juren's fame becomes more and more famous, his achievements become more and more incredible, and he gradually becomes the core of the Spirit Beast Mountain family. These fellow disciples who have experienced adversity together in the past also believe in him from the beginning. Gradually it turns into worship.
For these people, Mo Juren has never been a subordinate. If there is any difficulty, Han Yunzhi, who has always been at home, will always provide help to the best of his ability, making everyone closer and closer.
Chen Yue, in particular, is the most trustworthy among these people and can be regarded as Mo Juren's die-hard loyalist.
This person has a cheerful personality and is good at communication. Not only is he very popular among the disciples of the Spirit Beast Mountain lineage, he also has a wide network of connections among the main sect's fellow disciples.
Gu Yushan is one of them. He has always had a good relationship with Chen Yue, especially since the latter also successfully formed elixirs, and their relationship has become closer.
Of course, the reason for such a result is inseparable from Mo Juren. He had intentionally hinted to the other party to let him and Gu Yushan move around more.
The reason was not mentioned, but Chen Yue remembered it in his heart and never slacked off for more than a hundred years. He even formed a "deep" friendship with Gu Yushan.
Not long ago, Mo Juren found the other party and gave some instructions. The latter nodded immediately and agreed without any hesitation. In order to show his loyalty, he immediately swore an oath that he would never reveal any information even if he was exposed in the future.
Swearing is of course of no use. If it is really exposed, facing a Nascent Soul stage powerhouse like Dongmen Tu, there is no way to hide the secret as long as you are serious.
What Mo Juren admired was the other party's attitude, which made him very satisfied. Of course, the benefits should not be omitted, so as not to chill the other party's heart.
In this regard, Chen Yue did not pretend to be polite. After all, he had received help from Han Yunzhi not once or twice in so many years. If you have a lot of debt, you don't have to worry about it, as long as you have the opportunity to repay.
Putting away his thoughts, Mo Juren continued:
"You don't have to worry. Dongmen Tu won't be able to suspect me in a short period of time. And it doesn't matter even if the luck is extremely bad, the other party can't do anything to me."
"I believe Brother Mo." Looking at her husband's calm and unchanging expression when facing a strong man in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, Han Yunzhi couldn't help but be a little dazed. When he came to his senses, he changed the subject and said,
"The succession ceremony will be held in a few days. What gifts should we prepare?"
"What's there to worry about? Just find something from the warehouse. Dongmen Tu's wealth is not what he cares about. Face is the most important thing." Mo Juren analyzed with a smile.
"How about giving me an ancient treasure? There are plenty of them in the warehouse anyway?"
"Forget it about ancient treasures. No matter how low-quality they are, they are rare. Their single power is even more powerful than magic weapons. It's better to keep it for Ying'er and the others."
"Then give me an elixir? It's just that if the age is too low, it's not good. If it's too high, it's a bit arrogant." Han Yunzhi suggested again that there are also a lot of elixirs stored in the warehouse, and many of them are thousands of years old.
Although there were so many thousand-year elixirs auctioned at the previous big trade fairs, that was just a special situation. The reality is that even thousand-year-old elixirs are extremely difficult to encounter in the world of immortality. Any one of them will attract countless strong people to compete for it.
"This is a good idea." Mo Juren nodded in agreement. With Han Li here, the elixir is not considered precious, so it is appropriate to give it as a gift.
