Another elder interjected, "The sect leader's temperament has become a little different since then."
"If this matter is so important to the sect leader, why did he not take it seriously later?" An Pingren was puzzled.
At some point, An Tong quietly appeared behind them.
However, how could the elders not be on guard when they were having such an important conversation? So as soon as An Tong appeared, he was discovered and immediately grabbed by an elder with a wave of his hand.
"Dad! It's me!" An Tong shouted quickly.
The elder then let go.
"Why are you here?" An Pingren looked at his daughter.
"Dad, what are you talking about in such a mysterious way?" An Tong asked, "I'm just curious, so I want to listen!"
"Little kid, don't ask questions for no reason." An Pingren said to her.
However, due to An Tong's arrival, the conversation obviously couldn't continue. Fortunately, they had already found out what they needed to know, so everyone dispersed.
An Pingren took An Tong back to his residence.
"Dad, what are you talking about? Can't I know?" Now that it was safe here, An Tong started asking again.
An Pingren thought about it. He had been worried that his daughter would lose her patience and not be able to keep the secret. But now that the truth was clear, it was fine to let An Tong know.
"When I met Lu Muyun before, I thought he looked like someone, but I didn't think about it at the time. It wasn't until I met the Sect Master recently that I realized that Lu Muyun's eyebrows and eyes are so similar to the Sect Master's!"
An Tong was startled and couldn't speak for a long time.
"Um, Dad, what do you mean? Are you saying that Lu Muyun is the son of the sect leader?"
An Tong then shook her head, "This is impossible! Lu Muyun has a father, a mother, and a sister, how...how did he become the son of the sect leader? Is this a mistake?"
“I was worried that I had made a mistake, so I didn’t tell you directly, but instead specifically inquired within the sect to find out.
“The Sect Master did have a son back then, but no, he wasn’t the Sect Master at that time and still had to work hard for the Sect.
"Once, he took his son on a mission. At that time, his child was still very young, still in swaddling clothes. No one knows what happened on the way, but when he came back, he was alone, and the child was nowhere to be found."
An Tong's expression gradually changed from shock to surprise.
"If he really is...that would be wonderful!"
If they belong to the same sect, there will be no obstacles from the righteous and evil paths!
"So, Dad, what are we going to do next? Go find him? And tell him about this?"
Without waiting for An Pingren to answer, An Tong continued, "So, Dad, can you also use this incident to gain some merit and regain the position of elder?"
An Pingren was helpless.
Well, bringing that kid into the sect is a big deal, and restoring her father's position is just a by-product?
"But don't be too happy too soon!" An Pingren sighed.
"Why is that?" An Tong put away his smile and asked hurriedly.
"I've asked the elders in the sect before. After the sect leader's son went missing, he didn't care and didn't even send anyone to look for him," said An Pingren.
An Tong couldn't laugh anymore and said hesitantly, "In other words, what you're doing might be unnecessary? Maybe the Sect Master isn't happy?"
An Pingren nodded.
"So you have to think carefully. If we want to do this, we can only rely on ourselves and will not get any support. After all, we can't confirm whether Lu Muyun is the son of the sect leader just by looking at his face, and we don't know if the sect leader will be happy if we find him back."
An Tong was silent for a while before saying, "Of course we have to do it! This is not something we can solve by just thinking about it here.
"We can capture him first, and then quietly verify it. If he's not, we've already captured him anyway, so we can let him join our Demon Sect! If he's really the Sect Master's son, we can then quietly ask the Sect Master what he means.
"If the Sect Master wants a son, we'll tell him. If he doesn't want a son, we won't tell either side and let Lu Muyun stay in our Demon Sect! Dad, what do you say?"
Love really gave my daughter an extremely powerful motivation to act!
"Okay, it's decided then!"
Because his position was reduced, the sect leader will not take the initiative to give him tasks now, so he can only seize every opportunity by himself!
"But Dad, we don't even know where he is right now, how can we catch him? Besides, Lu Muyun is hard to deal with alone, what if he has that troublesome sister with him? Or if his parents are there too, we'll have even more people to deal with!"
"Don't worry about finding him. Last time I fought him in the sea, I got a strand of his hair. With this hair, I can use the tracing talisman to find his location.
"But it's true that he's difficult to catch, so we can't be short of manpower this time..."
An Tong felt a little sorry for her father.
The previous underwater layout had already consumed a lot of my father's manpower. Now this time, they were doing it secretly without the Sect Master's knowledge, so naturally they had no support and were consuming their own manpower.
If my father cannot return to the position of elder, he will have fewer and fewer people to work with in the future.
Qiu Ji Chen came to the bamboo hut, ready to help Lu Xianyun set up the formation.
For a genius like this, it all depends on whether they put their heart into it. As long as they put in the effort, mastering a formation is easy. In fact, it can be done in a day or two.
However, Qiu Ji Chen wanted to make this formation better and more solid and sturdy, so he spent a few more days researching it.
But he couldn't delay too long, after all, the owner only gave him a few days.
So today he came to help the store owner set up the formation.
After making sure that there was no need to take out anything else, Qiu Jichen quickly set up the formation.
Lu Xianyun took out some spirit stones to set up the formation.
Originally, Qiu Jichen had prepared some things, but he didn't expect the owner to be so particular and not take advantage of others at all.
The formation requires spiritual power to support it, so spirit stones are necessary to arrange the formation.
However, Lu Xianyun was worried about one problem. If the spiritual power of these spirit stones was exhausted, wouldn't the formation be disbanded?
"Don't worry, shop owner. I have set up two formations here. In addition to a protective defense formation, I also set up a spirit gathering formation. This spirit gathering formation can provide subsequent support for this formation.
"It's just that the spiritual energy in Liuxian Mountain is not very abundant, so the speed at which this spiritual gathering array absorbs spiritual energy is not very fast."
