Chapter 92 092 It's hers!
Rong Yuejun: "I was unaware of Su Yun's actions, and she has now been executed on the spot. Since the Lingshan Sect is under the care of the Rong family, it is up to the Rong family to set things right, and they seem to not want others to interfere."
At this point, Rong Yuejun couldn't help but sneer: "Or does Sect Leader Xie doubt me and not think I can handle this impartially?"
Xie Qingyu: "Although I believe it, I fear others may not—"
Rong Yuejun said sternly, "So what if others don't believe me? I never care if others believe me."
Xie Qingyu did not make a scene because Rong Yuejun interrupted, but slowly said, "The Greedy Wolf Sword is a vicious weapon. Greedy Wolf was also bewitched by it and even fell into evil ways. Therefore, this sword needs to be supervised by the world, and the Xie and Rong families should take care of it together. I wonder if Sword Immortal Rong understands?"
He wouldn't budge an inch, the sword in his hand as red as blood, devoid of his usual gentleness, making Rong Yuejun feel somewhat unfamiliar with him.
Rong Yuejun stared blankly, then suddenly understood Xie Qingyu's apprehension.
Without Mu Wuxian, she and Xie Qingyu would be enemies.
Having come this far, Xie Qingyu would never give up.
Children, marital bonds, and romantic relationships—all these are illusions. She may have tried her best to break free, but Xie Qingyu had already severed all ties long ago.
Now that I think about it, should she have given in or not?
Or should we break ties with Xie Qingyu now?
That Greedy Wolf Sword must not fall into the Rong family's hands. If she insists on going her own way, today will be the day of their final break.
For a fleeting moment, Rong Yuejun truly wanted to disregard everything.
After a long silence, she took a deep breath and finally said, "If such a sword truly exists, the Four Realms Oversight Committee must not allow it to fall into the hands of anyone."
Xie Qingyu smiled: "That's exactly right!"
At this moment, the other cultivators present also breathed a sigh of relief.
The two immortals from Yuan Yuan Tian managed to reach an agreement, thus preventing a calamity from erupting in the four realms.
However, several disciples of the Lingshan Sect were trembling with fear.
Si Yurong's expression turned slightly cold. She gently pulled up her clothes and finally said, "I would like to ask the two immortals to go to the Lingshan Sect and find out that filth."
As for the dozens of innocent Lingshan Sect disciples who died unjustly, it seems that Su Yun's death is enough to explain it.
However, Si Yu still felt somewhat uneasy.
If it weren't for Rongyue Jun's leniency, Suyun would never have been so presumptuous.
Xie Qingyu turned around and glanced at Shen Zhiwei, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, before looking away.
He was too preoccupied with the chaos just now to notice anything else, but now he caught a glimpse of Shen Zhiwei and Yin Wujiu holding hands, with Shen Zhiwei's cheeks slightly flushed.
His heart suddenly sank.
Shen Zhiwei has been stirring things up and dealing with things the whole time—
That's all there is to it.
A hint of ruthlessness suddenly flashed in Xie Qingyu's eyes, as she considered killing the two of them.
He did the same thing back then, but Yin Wujiu was lucky to survive.
Strangely, another thought surfaced in his mind at that moment. Why did he use Shen Zhiwei to shield Rong Yuejun back then? Was it because he loved Rong Yuejun so much, or was there no other way at the time?
Honestly, none of that applies.
A voice told him that he wanted Shen Zhiwei dead.
If that woman were to die, she would belong entirely to him.
He did indeed have this vicious idea back then, but he even deceived himself.
His expression grew colder. After this matter was resolved, he took Shen Xiaochun back to the Xie family. Regardless of whether he wanted to cultivate Shen Xiaochun, he was determined to separate the child from Shen Zhiwei.
He was aggressive towards Rong Yuejun, tearing off the mask of civility, as if some seal had been broken, and some of the fierce and malevolent energy in his bones was stirring.
Shen Zhiwei seemed somewhat at a loss, but she did not let go of Yin Wujiu's hand.
Her mind, however, was racing.
The Greedy Wolf Sword was once kept at the Spirit Mountain Sect. Rong Yuejun used a wisp of its sword energy to protect it, as even the slightest movement would disturb Rong Yuejun of the Yuan Yuan Heaven. Rong Yuejun was a celestial being, and could arrive in an instant with a thought.
Shen Zhiwei also considered stealing the sword, but ultimately it was not a safe method.
So she used one enemy to devour another, exploiting the conflict between the Rong and Xie families to pry open the gates of the Lingshan Sect.
Rong Yuejun was also restrained by Xie Qingyu and had no free time. The Greedy Wolf Sword, which was hidden in the Lingshan Sect, was finally about to see the light of day again.
However, Shen Zhiwei was not truly happy that things would go smoothly, and she felt a deep sense of regret. She only thought that Rong Yuejun had not really had a serious fight with Xie Qingyu.
Shen Zhiwei sighed, "The two of them are out of sync!"
Xie Qingyu's true fire was drawn out, but Rong Yuejun avoided it.
Isn't Rong Jianxian usually extremely assertive? What's going on? He actually backed down at this crucial moment.
Rong Yuejun only appears strong.
However, Shen Zhiwei was not without a backup plan.
As she thought this, Shen Zhiwei was still holding Mu Wuxian's hand.
Those who witnessed this couldn't help but sigh at how chaotic the entertainment circle was, and also remarked on how daring Master Shen was.
Shen Zhiwei suddenly turned her head and said softly, "You quietly go back to Bixia Sect and take Xiao Chan with you. I'll sneak away with you."
Mu Wuxian looked at her quietly, seemingly somewhat surprised.
Shen Zhiwei said sadly, "Although I am very reluctant to give up this foundation, Xie Qingyu and Rong Yuejun can no longer tolerate me. It's only ten years, and I will have other opportunities in the future. You and Xiao Chan are the most important people to me."
Mu Wuxian paused for a moment, then said "Okay".
Shen Zhiwei let go of his hand, and Mu Wuxian suddenly reached out and hugged Shen Zhiwei tightly before letting go.
Mu Wuxian didn't say anything. He quickly released his arm and disappeared into the crowd like a drop of water.
As the master of Yunque Heavenly Palace, whether Tanlang is dead or alive, he must keep the Tanlang Sword under his care.
Shen Zhiwei will definitely be disappointed, but Mu Wuxian will still do it.
But just now, when they were so affectionate, holding hands, he seemed reluctant to break free.
The tender feelings he had longed for but could not have years ago still stirred his heart. He couldn't bear to see even a hint of disappointment on Shen Zhiwei's face, and he was even more unwilling to cruelly let her know that Yin Wujiu had been devoured.
Yin Wujiu is him, but Shen Zhiwei certainly cannot understand it.
After seeing Mu Wuxian off, Shen Zhiwei's expression calmed down, and she took a deep breath.
What follows is the most crucial and ingenious part of this scene.
Even though Shen Zhiwei was usually calm, her heart couldn't help but pound twice, as if it were extremely fast.
However, she quickly calmed down.
Although she was jumping around today, with two Yuan Yuan Tian Great Cultivators present, her legendary beauty as a concubine was no longer so eye-catching.
She raised her face, like a delicate flower.
The Lingshan Sect's mountain gate was quite grand, and considerable effort had been put into its decoration to display its majesty. However, it was unfortunate that they encountered Xie Qingyu, which brought them bad luck.
The usually gentle and refined Sect Leader Xie had a fiery temper; with a single sword strike, he cleaved the gate in two with a deafening roar.
Before the dust from the shattered mountain gate had even settled, a bone-chilling cold suddenly swept over them. Everyone felt their spiritual energy stagnate and instinctively turned to look. They saw dozens of figures in black robes standing silently outside the Ling Shan Sect's mountain gate, their auras as cold as ice, with a hint of killing intent swirling around them.
The leader was tall and imposing, with a cold and stern face. A token hung at his waist; he was Leng Yun, one of the Six Netherworld Envoys. His gaze swept over everyone present, finally settling on Xie Qingyu and Rong Yuejun. His voice was as cold as jade, devoid of any warmth: "By order of Young Master Mu, the Greedy Wolf Sword is a ferocious weapon of the Four Realms and must be taken in and guarded by the Cloud Palace. From today onwards, it belongs to the Cloud Palace."
These words caused another deathly silence to fall over the entire area. The cultivators, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly changed their expressions, never expecting that someone from Yunque Heavenly Palace would suddenly appear out of nowhere! Mu Wuxian had been in seclusion for many days and had not even shown his face when the Greedy Wolf Sword appeared, yet now he sent a secret cultivator to come at this crucial moment in the search for the Greedy Wolf Sword, which was obviously premeditated.
Xie Qingyu's grip on the sword tightened slightly, the smile on her face faded a bit, and a hint of wariness flashed in her eyes: "Envoy Leng You is joking. The appearance of the Greedy Wolf Sword in the Lingshan Sect is a matter of the Third Heaven, and it has already been agreed that the Xie and Rong families will jointly guard it. Why should the Yunque Heavenly Palace interfere?"
"Sect Leader Xie is mistaken."
Leng Yun's tone remained unchanged, carrying an undeniable force: "Young Master Mu has ordered that this ferocious weapon must not be taken lightly. Only the Cloud Palace has the ability to subdue this sword. If it is entrusted to others for safekeeping, and further trouble ensues, who can bear the responsibility?"
At the same time, Lin Lanyou appeared, holding an ice flower between her fingers, crystal clear and translucent.
It's no secret that when Young Master Mu sends out his envoys, he always bestows a divine breath upon them to exert his power.
If anything is different from the past, Lin Lanyou is now wearing a mask, concealing her face.
Si Yu and Lin Lanyou were quite familiar with each other, and they had even been to the First Heaven together before. Now, Si Yu suddenly let out a sigh of relief, as if he felt a little better.
It was hard to describe the feeling. Compared to the Rong and Xie families, Si Yu hoped that Yun Que Tian Gong would take care of the Greedy Wolf Sword, and did not want the Rong and Xie families to have their way.
Young Master Mu has a bad reputation, known for his fierceness and ruthlessness, and is also extremely harsh in managing his subordinates. Despite this, it seems that because of his arrogance, he rarely does such things.
Since Mu Wuxian gave such an order, even the heads of the Rong and Xie families would probably have no choice but to comply.
Shen Zhiwei thought the same thing.
In the past, Xie Qingyu would have given way, and Rong Yuejun would have been subdued. Above the Rong, Xie, and Ling families, there was already the Yunque Heavenly Palace.
However, in reality today, it is a different story.
Sect Master Xie had been watching Mu Wuxian closely for a long time, constantly searching for his weaknesses. Although the Mu family had produced a Great Evolution Immortal Venerable, he had been missing for a long time. Some said he had ascended to immortality, while others said he had long since turned to dust because he was not tolerated by the world. Thus, the power of an immortal had been destroyed by the Heavenly Dao and could not be allowed to affect the balance of the world. Mu family disciples would inherit his power, but in the past, those who inherited it all went mad within a few months. Only Mu Wuxian had persisted for ten years!
Xie Qingyu must be going crazy waiting for this!
Shen Zhiwei's lips curled up slightly, and she smiled unconsciously. Like a ghost, she sneaked into the Lingshan Sect, her whole body hidden under a black cloak, and the fingers that held the cloak were as white as snow.
Because Mu Wuxian has always been eccentric!
He single-handedly forced everyone in Yuan Yuan Tian to undergo blood tests upon entry and exit, including Xie Qingyu and Rong Yuejun. To find Tan Lang, Mu Wuxian was willing to offend the world, driven to such madness, yet now he speaks of it so casually!
On the day of the incident, Mu Wuxian did not appear as the puppet of the Greedy Wolf, and now that the whereabouts of the Greedy Wolf Sword have been known, he still has not appeared, but has only sent two Netherworld Envoys—
At this moment, Xie Qingyu gripped the magic sword, his palms sweating involuntarily, and he was indeed thinking: He only sent two Netherworld Envoys!
Xie Qingyu already had some doubts when the annual exam was held the day before yesterday, and now those doubts are growing wildly like weeds.
He hesitated, wondering, "Young Master Mu, is there something you need?"
Because of other matters, he did not show up even when faced with such a major event.
He was lost in thought, hesitant and uncertain, his face cold, which even surprised Rong Yuejun.
Xie Qingyu, Rong Yuejun really doesn't recognize Xie Qingyu anymore.
Xie Qingyu is usually very cautious.
Xie Qingyu channeled her profound energy into the sword, making it gleam like blood. Suddenly, she shouted sharply, "Why hasn't Young Master Mu arrived today? Are you deliberately concealing this? Is Young Master Mu perhaps unwell?!"
Leng Yu said sternly, "Stop talking nonsense!"
Within the forbidden area of the Lingshan Sect, Shen Zhiwei sighed, a sound that resembled a laugh.
She knew what Xie Qingyu suspected, but Xie Qingyu had completely misunderstood.
Thinking you're so clever.
Mu Wuxian did not show himself because this young master Mu was by his side at the time and witnessed the victory firsthand. He knew that the so-called Tanlang was nothing more than a puppet.
Now, he wants to take the Greedy Wolf Sword because he is deeply concerned about Yin Wujiu. Therefore, he is reluctant to expose this "lie" all at once and wants to hold on to a few more years.
For example, there was Lin Lanyou, who was present in person and wore a mask.
As she thought this, Shen Zhiwei landed lightly in front of the Greedy Wolf Sword, as if it were a feather.
The atmosphere was already tense, and with just a little something extra, Sect Leader Xie could easily turn the tables and show off his heroism, testing Young Master Mu's strength and skill. That would be much more interesting than Xie Qingyu's lifelong subservience and pretentious posturing.
A familiar aura rushed towards him, and the surging sword intent made Shen Zhiwei feel comfortable throughout his body.
The sword's breath aroused Shen Zhiwei's emotions, and even though it was stained with some blood, they were still incredibly affectionate.
There is another magic array before the Greedy Wolf Sword, which traps it and plants a wisp of Rong Yuejun's sword intent. If any mortal comes into contact with it, Rong Yuejun will surely become aware of it.
However, Shen Zhiwei did not hesitate and immediately formed a hand seal to break the formation.
Her fingers flew, forming hand seals with lightning speed, each one a blur of motion. Profound runes flowed from her fingertips, landing precisely on the nodes of the magic array.
Although Rong Yuejun's magic array contained the intent of an immortal sword, she had already figured out its flaws. With a soft crack, the array's light dimmed abruptly, and the layers of restrictions dissipated like shattered jade. She stepped forward, her fingertips lightly touching the hilt of the Greedy Wolf Sword. The familiar sword aura instantly swept over her, causing a fervent glint to flash in her eyes. The entire process took only a few breaths, so smooth that it seemed the array had been designed specifically for her.
From the direction of Yuan Yuan Tian, Rong Yuejun's expression suddenly changed drastically, and the wisp of sword intent connected to the Ling Shan Sect's formation at her fingertips abruptly broke. Someone had broken through her true power!
Her heart sank, and she instantly concluded that it was the work of Mu Wuxian's underlings, You Shi. Rong Yuejun's heart sank as she flashed, transforming into a red shadow, carrying a sharp sword aura, and sped towards the forbidden area of the Ling Shan Sect, breaking spirit trees along the way, her momentum overwhelming.
This move broke the tense standoff. Subconsciously, Xie Qingyu's sword intent, which had been gathering momentum, surged forth and slashed fiercely at Lin Lanyou, who was wearing a mask!
Lin Lanyou seemed unmoved, even diverting a wisp of her spiritual energy to remotely lock Rong Yuejun, guiding Rong Yuejun and Xie Qingyu to attack her together.
At the same time, Shen Zhiwei also reached out and tightly gripped the hilt of the Greedy Wolf Sword.
Like a person who has traveled a long way and finally sees the end of the road, the two auras mixed together and merged into one, which brought the dormant magic sword back to life.
It's hers!
