Huang Chen was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Mu Lingjiu meant.

He looked at Mu Lingjiu suspiciously, "You...what do you want to do? Do you really want to go with me to see the Empress?"

Mu Lingjiu shook her head, "I have a way for you to find Mu Lingxiong."

"This..." Huang Chen hesitated. Mu Lingxiong was born cruel and always ruthless to others. If he really brought people to find Mu Lingxiong, he would probably not escape death.

"I think we should forget about this. If you are willing to go with me to meet the Empress, it would be a good idea."

Mu Lingjiu tutted, "Do you think Mu Tianxue is so easy to fool?"

Huang Chen frowned, his mind racing with Mu Tianxue's gentle and kind image. He didn't know what others thought, but in his heart, Mu Tianxue was soft and tender, incredibly pitiable, someone even an ant wouldn't want to kill. Even if he'd caught the wrong Mu Lingjiu, Mu Tianxue wouldn't punish him.

"I believe in Empress Tianxue..."

"It's up to you." Mu Lingjiu didn't intend to waste too much time talking to him. In her previous life, she also tried to persuade her father and brother, but ended up in a tragic way. In this life, she would not persuade anyone.

Huang Chen began to feel a little regretful when he saw Mu Lingjiu stopped talking.

"Why don't you tell me first, what method is there to find Lord Ling Xiong? Perhaps I will follow your method."

"No need, your chance has run out." Mu Lingjiu's brows were cold, and he didn't waste any more words with Huang Chen.

Huang Chen called Mu Lingjiu twice again, which annoyed Li Chengfeng next to him. He came up and gave Huang Chen two big slaps. Huang Chen didn't dare to say anything.

The other disciples of Xuanxian Sect sat together. Although they were meditating, they were uneasy and didn't know if they could get out safely.

"Master doesn't know about our situation yet. Should we report it to him?" a disciple asked.

Li Chengfeng shook his head. "My master is very busy lately, so it's better not to disturb him for now."

"But we are in a very dangerous situation now. Are you sure you don't want to tell me, Brother Li?"

Li Chengfeng looked confident. "Once they heard we were disciples of the Xuanxian Sect, they wouldn't dare to hurt us. What's there to be afraid of? You're just too timid. If you were to gain more experience like me, you wouldn't be so easily nervous."

The other disciples did not agree with Li Chengfeng as they did before, but instead looked at Feng Yuexian and Mu Lingjiu.

Through their time together, they found that Li Chengfeng was arrogant and not very down-to-earth, so they still wanted to hear the opinions of Mu Lingjiu and Feng Yuexian.

Feng Yuexian looked at Mu Lingjiu hesitantly, "Junior Sister, what do you think?"

"This trip will not be very safe, so it is better to pass the news back to the sect." Mu Lingjiu said.

Li Chengfeng chuckled upon hearing this, "You are simply too timid. If a cultivator doesn't even have the courage to face danger alone, what's the point of cultivation? No wonder you are only inner disciples, and I am the direct disciple."

Li Chengfeng's words made everyone unhappy, but no one objected to his words. After all, the other party was indeed a direct disciple and was one level higher than them.

Although he did not dare to oppose Li Chengfeng, he still secretly tried to contact his master and spread the news of their distress.

Soon, a disciple connected to the communication talisman of his own senior sister.

"Sister, we have encountered some problems."

"What's the problem? I heard that the Black Water Pool is a bit dangerous." The woman's voice was gentle.

"We were captured in the Imperial Capital before we even reached the Black Water Pool. Now we're not sure if we can get out. Senior Sister, could you please come and help?" She was afraid that Senior Sister would refuse, so she quickly added, "Don't worry, Senior Sister. If you can rescue us, I will definitely reward you handsomely. How about a thousand spirit stones?"

The woman's voice was filled with a smile. "Junior sister, there's no need to be so polite. I'll be right there."

After the words fell, the disciple was overjoyed, "That's great, our Senior Sister Shuya is a Spiritual Venerable. If she comes, she will definitely be able to take us away."

The other disciples all showed envious expressions. Most of them could not find their own master directly, so they could only find their senior sisters and brothers for help, and many of them refused.

In the end, only two disciples asked their senior sisters and brothers for help.

Li Chengfeng chuckled at this, "Your behavior is truly disgraceful. If I were your senior brother, I would definitely not come. It's just a few setbacks in your training, there's nothing to be afraid of."

The other disciples all felt embarrassed and kept their heads down, saying nothing. Even among practitioners, there were close relationships; asking someone for help didn't necessarily mean they would come.

Feng Yuexian also tried to use the communication talisman to find Lu Zhibai, but unfortunately there was no response from Lu Zhibai.

Second Senior Sister and Fifth Senior Brother are both in the Red Sea, so it is even more impossible for them to get here in a short time.

The third senior brother has been missing for many years and it is impossible to find him.

She sighed, "Forget it, let's just stay here for now. It feels safe so far."

The others also nodded in agreement.

Mu Lingjiu suggested, "Let's go to the formation shop and buy some teleportation talismans. They might be useful later."

"Teleportation Talisman?" someone exclaimed. "That's worth a fortune. All the spirit stones I have on me aren't enough."

"I can't afford it. I can't afford it."

"I didn't get any spirit stones from this mission, and I even had to pay for it."

"I don't think it's that dangerous, so why not buy the teleportation talisman?"

…

Mu Lingjiu could empathize with everyone's financial difficulties. She was in the same situation in her previous life. She would not spend money if she could, and used all her spirit stones for cultivation.

The situation doesn't seem dangerous enough now, so it's understandable that everyone doesn't want to spend money to buy such an expensive teleportation talisman.
