Two pairs of dark eyes looked at each other from a distance.

Mu Lingjiu looked at Lu Zhibai, and Lu Zhibai also looked at Mu Lingjiu.

The emotions expressed in the eyes of the two men engaged in a battle, and in the end, Lu Zhibai restrained his expression and was defeated.

"When did you know it was mine?"

"Avatar." Mu Lingjiu said, "Big Brother's avatar has a familiar aura."

"Then why didn't you expose it or question me? You act like you never noticed anything unusual."

"It doesn't seem to make much sense." Mu Lingjiu smiled slightly, "Even if I expose Senior Brother, it seems meaningless. You probably don't want me to expose you after doing that."

Lu Zhibai smiled slightly, "Maybe, I want to meet you in my true self."

Mu Lingjiu pursed her lips, and her dark eyes reflected Lu Zhibai's appearance.

She looked at it for a while, lowered her head and took a sip of tea without saying anything more.

Lu Zhibai could only hear his own heartbeat and his increasingly panicked heart.

Mu Lingjiu said nothing. She was like a high and mighty ruler, looking down at her subjects.

Those extremely beautiful eyes, with slightly drooping eyelashes, looked at the shimmering light in the tea.

It was only a moment, but Lu Zhibai felt as if a long time had passed. He heard Mu Lingjiu say:

"in this way."

She had actually thought about Yin Mo's true appearance before, but she never expected that he was the Alchemy Saint Lu Zhibai.

After all, Yin Mo did not show any interest in alchemy.

She held her chin with one hand, looked at Lu Zhibai, and recalled every detail of the past.

She had met Yin Mo when she was only thirteen, just the age to become a young general. The first news she bought was about the Battle of Fengshui in Lingzhou.

Lu Zhibai at that time was still the same as he is now, and his organization had existed for many years.

Mu Lingjiu heard that it was very expensive to buy information from Yin, and they were in a difficult situation at the time. She bargained with Yin Mo for a long time before she got the location of the Lingzhou Spirit Stone Base for two hundred spirit stones.

She later won a lot of money in the casino in Lingzhou.

She is her guide on this path, and is also regarded as a friend and master by Mu Lingjiu.

However, Mu Lingjiu had never seen Yin Mo's true appearance.

Yin Mo said that if he wanted to show it to you, he would show it to you naturally.

If you don’t show it to me, it means you don’t want to show it to me for the time being.

Therefore, Mu Lingjiu never asked Yin Mo about this matter again.

But today, when she saw Lu Zhibai sitting in front of her, she looked very calm, but in fact she felt a little awkward inside.

Uncomfortable? Or some other emotion?

An emotion that Mu Lingjiu rarely experiences, the tug-of-war between reason and emotion.

Reason told her not to pursue the matter, and indeed there seemed no need to pursue it, but her emotions made her feel strangely uncomfortable.

She didn't know where this discomfort came from.

She tried hard to digest her emotions, and when she looked up at Lu Zhibai again, she was already very calm.

"Thank you, Senior Brother, for your help during this period. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to enter the Xuanxian Sect so smoothly."

Yin Mo gently poked his brow with his finger, "Should I give you a little more time to digest this? Tell you later?"

"No." Mu Lingjiu shook his head and then said, "It's already very late."

Lu Zhibai was stunned for a moment, then reacted.

Mu Lingjiu must be unhappy because he concealed the truth.

"Actually, I wanted to tell you earlier, but... the little ginseng spirit said that we should maintain a sense of mystery."

Mu Lingjiu, “…”

The little ginseng spirit ran out of Lu Zhibai's arms trembling, "I didn't, I wasn't..."

Lu Zhibai pushed it back.

"go back."

Lu Zhibai glanced sideways and changed the subject, "Why did you suddenly come to Lingzhou? I thought you would attack Zhongzhou first."

"I'm being hunted down." Mu Lingjiu said helplessly, "I don't know what kind of deal Mu Lingyun made with Long Zu, and now Dong Yuheng is hunting me down."

Mu Lingjiu was obviously much more casual when speaking in front of Yin Mo, and was much more relaxed than when she was with Lu Zhibai.

"So..." Lu Zhibai was also a little surprised. "Mu Lingyun actually managed to invite Dragon Ancestor. That's a bit unexpected."

Mu Lingjiu raised her eyebrows. She was also quite surprised, otherwise she would have made some preparations earlier.

Fortunately, her Ten Divine Techniques are very powerful.

"Don't worry, there is a Qiankun Formation here, it will take some time for him to find you." Lu Zhibai said.

Mu Lingjiu nodded, "I plan to go to the underground city."

"Dungeon?" Lu Zhibai shook his head. "It's dangerous. You're only at the Spiritual Venerable level now. There are many ghosts, monsters, and beasts in the dungeon."

"There's something I need in the dungeon." Mu Lingjiu looked expectant. "I want to go look for it."

"You want to improve your cultivation at this time?" Lu Zhibai disagreed, "You know Master..."

Lu Zhibai did not help Mu Lingjiu improve his cultivation because he knew that Mu Lingjiu would become his master's enemy after becoming the Spirit Emperor.

The master is likely to choose the most suitable Mu Lingjiu when choosing a body.

But she didn't know that she was the most suitable one.

Mu Lingjiu nodded, "I want to improve my cultivation quickly. Next, I still want to enter the Void Realm and find out what's going on."

"You know Master needs..."

"I know that Master needs a strong person with the cultivation level of Spiritual Emperor. Don't worry, I don't plan to break through to Spiritual Emperor this time. I will suppress my cultivation level to the ninth level of Spiritual Saint. I am still a long way from the ninth level of Spiritual Saint."

Mu Lingjiu turned his head, his eyes full of determination.

"Don't worry, I know what to do."
