Yumu Palace.
The day of Muchen’s funeral.
Countless disciples, dressed in mourning clothes, all observed silence. The disciples from Xiantian below observed an hour of silence every day for three days. Except for those who guard important places and hold important positions, all disciples from Xiantian and above attended the funeral.
As for Jiang Yun and the others, they returned to their palaces to rest after simply going through the process.
Anyway, the mourning hall is not far from here. The two hills are right next to each other. If anything happens, it can be over in the blink of an eye.
"Junhao."
When the ceremony in the mourning hall was about to proceed, an elder came over and said, "There is a disciple at the door reporting that an old friend of your grandfather wants to see you."
"Old friend?"
Mu Junhao raised his head in confusion. Shouldn't he have met all his grandfather's old friends once? Why would any old friend come over now?
"I don't know. It's right at our door. Go and have a look."
The elder seemed to be passing on a message and left after speaking. Mu Junhao glanced at his grandfather's tomb, thought for a while and decided to go out and have a look, because his grandfather said before his death that some old friends might not be able to come over, and if they arrived, he would still have to greet them.
Thinking of this, he stood up and flew away.
When he came to the mountain gate, he looked around and saw no one.
"Who told you to look for me just now?" he asked a golden elixir disciple who was approaching.
The Jindan monk reported, "Report to the elders, that man just said that he was an old friend of the Supreme Elder, and was chased away by a group of people. Before leaving, he asked me to give this to you. The people who were chasing him saw it. I didn’t even intend to force my way into my Yumu Palace even once.”
"Pursuit?" Mu Junhao wondered, if he was being hunted, he would still come to find him?
He found that the object handed over by the other party was a jade slip, and there was no doubt that his Mu Junhao soul had penetrated it.
Buzz!
The next moment, a strong light burst out from the jade slip. Seeing this, Mu Junhao quickly threw it away and shouted, "Be careful!"
The roar and huge fluctuations directly formed a small mushroom cloud here.
Under the fluctuations of the explosion, Mu Junhaoshang still had a trace of sanity. He quickly realized that this might be a scam, but the fluctuations of the explosion were too sudden. Before he had time to protect himself, the aura shield was directly blown away. Broken, now he is still a little hard to get up from the explosion.
When he thought that someone might be targeting him, he struggled to get up and wanted to fly towards the sect.
At this time, the elder who had sent him a message happened to appear again. Mu Junhao saw him as soon as he rushed out of the smoke, and he was so happy that he said, "Elder Qu, please tell the sect that there is an enemy..."
Before he finished speaking, Elder Qu rushed over with a livid face, and a water dragon shot towards him.
"you...!"
Mu Junhao was shocked, but after all, he was the grandson of Yingling, with first-class combat power and talent. He immediately started to struggle with the opponent, but he was injured after all, so he could only fight and retreat.
At this moment, a figure suddenly jumped out, and the opponent stabbed Mu Junhao's left arm with a sword attack, causing him to cry out in pain. Then several figures suddenly emerged from the smoke, directly hugging Mu Junhao and leaving.
On the other hand, the seventh elder pretended that nothing happened and shouted, "Come on, someone, Jun Hao has been captured!"
Almost as soon as he spoke, three figures appeared beside him.
"Qingfang, you catch him and wait for Gao Ange to come and deal with it. Li Liu and I will catch up and rescue him."
The person who spoke was none other than Jiang Yun. The three of them were discussing matters with the leader Gao Ange when they suddenly noticed an explosion at the entrance of the sect. They got up and rushed over without hesitation.
From afar, I discovered that the old guy was colluding with the people in the smoke to target Mu Junhao.
However, the distance was too far, and there were infant spirit stage experts in the explosion smoke. He sensed their approach, so he quickly took those people away.
"good."
Qingfang knew that the two men's fighting power was not low, and that going there by herself might be a hindrance, and that the Yumu Palace needed an infant spirit to take charge, so the boundless sword energy and sword intent enveloped and bound Elder Qu.
Jiang Yun and Li Liu cast spells to disperse the smoke, then dodged and rushed out again.
Qingfang looked at the two people walking away and frowned at Elder Qu. Elder Qu's eyes were also moving wildly, not knowing what he was thinking. His eyes suddenly lit up until he saw Gao Ange coming from a distance.
"Sect Master, save me quickly! Sect Master!"
Gao Ange watched in surprise as Qingfang held the sword against Elder Qu's neck. He was slower because of his strength.
"Senior, this is..." At this time, he looked at this scene with confusion, wondering about the movements of Jiang Yun and Li Liu.
"This guy.."
Before Qingfang could speak, she was interrupted by Elder Qu, "Sect Master, a mysterious person just broke into the Sect Master and kidnapped Junior Brother Mu Junhao. They are with the three seniors!"
"What? Jun Hao has been kidnapped?" Gao Ange's expression changed. Mu Junhao is now the most promising among them to be promoted to the Infant Spirit, and there are some sect secrets that only Jun Hao knows. Nothing can happen to him!
In a hurry, he subconsciously wanted to ask Qingfang.
But when he met Qingfang's cold eyes, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth and said, "Senior..."
"Be the first to speak and then bite back, he is such a sharp-tongued guy." Qingfang sneered at Elder Qu, and then wanted to teach this guy a lesson with a sword, but she and Gao Ange looked at each other and still did not rush to act. "Sect Master Gao, we have been discussing things together just now. You don't really doubt us, do you?"
"Of course it won't be the seniors." Gao Ange realized at this time that Yu Mu Palace still needs to rely on these infant spirit stage people to take charge, and the incident just happened suddenly, and the three of them were indeed with him.
What is going on?
"When we rushed over, we saw this guy and a group of people in the smoke attacking Mu Junhao from a distance. There was an Infant Spirit Stage monk in the smoke. He spotted us and rushed over and took them away, leaving this guy alone. " Qingfang said, "Now it seems that this guy was left here just to confuse the public. If the three of us hadn't arrived so quickly, we would have been fooled by him."
"Elder Qu? Is that true?" Gao Ange is definitely not like it. If the three infant spirit stages really want to kidnap Mu Junhao, they can do it directly. Why join forces with others?
"Sect Master, you can't believe what they say!"
Elder Qu had a loyal look on his face and said sincerely, "I just fought with Jun Hao against those men in black at the Nascent Soul stage who suddenly attacked. As a result, the three of them attacked me without saying a word. Jun Hao ran out in a hurry. I was caught by her to protect Junhao."
"Sect Master, they are looking at the death of the Supreme Elder, and they plan to attack Junhao to get our sect's treasures. Maybe the next target to attack is you, Sect Master! You must not believe them! We have the treasure left by the Supreme Elder. Your trump cards are enough to protect yourself, and you don’t need their false protection!”
Gao Ange's face froze.
You are so good at talking. There is an infant spirit here, and you say that they cannot be trusted, and then you ask me, the sect leader, to punish them. Elder Qu, you are really not afraid that they will kill us two!
"If I read it right..." Qingfang suddenly said in deep thought, attracting Gao Ange's attention, "The swordsmanship used by the man in the smoke is somewhat similar to that of the Qingwu Sword Sect. Elder Qu, you said you were loyal, Do you dare to swear that what happened today has nothing to do with you? If you tell a lie, you will be destroyed physically and mentally?"
Elder Qu's expression changed slightly, which immediately made Gao Ange feel certain.
"Do you dare to swear?" Elder Qu shouted, "Then you also swear that you have no knowledge of what happened today!"
"It's a joke." Qingfang chuckled, "I am in the infant spirit stage, and I need to swear an oath to prove my innocence in order to give you a Nascent Soul. If it spreads, wouldn't it disgrace the infant spirit monks, and everyone can laugh at me?"
Of course, she couldn't swear to prove Gao Ange's innocence. To put it bluntly, she could kill Elder Qu without getting angry because she gave Gao Ange enough face. If a strong infant spirit wanted to kill someone, Gao Ange really couldn't stop her.
After looking at Gao Ange who was silent, Qingfang threw Elder Qu directly.
Gao Ange half supported and half held Elder Qu, but did not heal his injuries.
"But it doesn't matter, whose spy you are, everything will be revealed when Li Liu and the others rescue him." After Qingfang said that, she flew directly into the clouds, "Sect Master Gao, I will personally take charge At the entrance of the sect, if you are suspicious, you can stay and monitor me. If you are not suspicious, you can continue to do what you should do. I don’t believe they have developed Elder Qu as a spy. Be careful if someone comes to you at this time. !”
She glanced at Elder Qu and gave a meaningful smile with disdain. She obviously meant to let Gao Ange appease the sect's emotions, interrogate the sect's traitors, and avoid riots.
As the leader of the sect, how could Gao Ange not think about the city? He already had some decisions in his mind.
He immediately cupped his fists and said, "Then we'll be in trouble here, senior. I'll take him back for interrogation right away."
"Sect Master, beware of them! Never trust this woman..." Before Elder Qu could finish speaking, Gao Ange sealed his mouth with spiritual energy and strangled his neck.
Gao Ange said coldly, "Elder Qu, are you staying here to provoke a break between the sect and the Yinglings?"
"Woo..." Elder Qu shook his head in disbelief, saying that he didn't mean it at all. His innocent and kind eyes fell on Gao Ange, which actually made the sect leader smile softly, "You look loyal , His words were all thought out for the sake of the sect, but in reality these words were not meant for me to hear, but for the seniors."
Qingfang raised her eyebrows and looked at Gao Ange's analysis calmly.
"You know that even if you say these words to me, I don't dare to fall out with several Infant Spirit Stages openly. Therefore, the real target of your words is the Infant Spirit Stage seniors. As long as they feel that I, Yu Mu Palace, have nothing to do with them. If there is any dissatisfaction, they will either leave directly, give up rescuing Junhao, or directly attack our Yumu Palace."
"There are only three endings in the end."
"Why do you want Senior Yinglingqi to leave our Yumu Palace?" Gao Ange looked at him coldly, "You said the two seniors hijacked Jun Hao? Haha, there are some things you don't know, but I do. , it is impossible for the two seniors to attack Jun Hao, especially senior Li Liu, who is Jun Hao’s master. Once he kills his apprentice, he will be contaminated by the cause and effect. The deeper the cause and effect, the harder it will be to practice."
"What you just said seems to be reasonable, but in fact it is full of loopholes."
"Qu Yu, why do you want to judge the sect!" He suddenly shouted loudly, which resounded throughout the sky. The disciples who came from a distance were also shocked by this sound.
"Elder Qu is judging the sect?"
"What's going on? Elder Qu was held in the hands of the sect leader? Are you talking about judging the sect?"
Elder Qu kept shaking his head. He wanted to speak but couldn't.
Qingfang took out the transmission talisman and contacted the White Lantern Club. The current situation requires certain support from the White Lantern Club. Regardless of whether Jiang Yun and the two left, if it was the other party's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain, or if Yu Mu Palace wanted to turn against him, he must be prepared to deal with it first.
Looking at Gao Ange's back, he sighed with emotion that he was indeed the master of a sect. At this time, it didn't matter whether Elder Qu was truly loyal or not. He had to bear the crime or even die in order to give an explanation to his three infant spirit stages. Otherwise, once there is a real quarrel with the three infant spirits, Yu Mu Palace may have to face a big crisis.
Gao Ange obviously knew this in his heart, so he directly slapped the hat on him, but he didn't intend to kill him now.
He wanted to wait and see, and he actually felt that Elder Qu had a greater chance of assisting foreign thieves, but this matter still needed to be determined by Jun Hao himself. Let's first see if Senior Li Liu and the others can bring Jun Hao back. If they can't bring Jun Hao back, this matter will be a bit troublesome.
Because Elder Qu cannot be alone, there must be accomplices. Those accomplices only need to spread this matter to incite, and someone in the sect will be successfully instigated, forcing the sect and the three Yinglings to stand against each other. .
"Come here, take Elder Qu to the water prison!"
"At the same time, all disciples must not wander around when they return to their own mountain peaks. The elders will immediately go back to supervise them. Later I will patrol each mountain one by one. Anyone who wanders around will be sent to the water prison to be executed!"
