Chapter 547 The Show Begins
Xuan Mu sat helplessly on the grass. How could he not know it, but he couldn't keep wasting time like this.
No one knows who left these relics. They have been searching for half a year but have found nothing!
Even among the gods, he has never eaten this kind of turtle!
At this moment, an idea flashed in his mind, and he tentatively said, "Speaking of which, can that little girl's ability help us find the secret realm? We..."
"No!" He was interrupted by Xie Shiyuan before he could finish his words. She frowned and said, "Li Luo is just an ordinary person who can't practice cultivation. Having that kind of ability but not being able to protect herself is already a burden. How can you think like that!"
Xuan Mu also knew that this was inappropriate. He lowered his voice and said weakly, "I'm just saying it. I'm not forcing her..."
"What?!" Xie Shiyuan stood up suddenly, "You still want to force her?! She's just a little girl!"
Xuan Mu immediately raised his hand to admit his mistake, "I was wrong, I was wrong, I was just saying it, I would never do that!"
Xie Shiyuan was satisfied, "That's how it should be."
The morning light was just beginning to appear, and the mist in the camp was gradually dispelled by the rising sun. Di Chen's figure looked particularly dazzling in the golden light.
"You three are here so early today?" Di Chen walked out of the tent. Seeing the three of them, he walked over with some surprise. "Did you find anything?"
He walked over with brisk steps, and the soft armor on his body shone with a cold and soft luster in the morning light.
Di Chen's gaze swirled between the three of them, finally landing on Xuan Mu. "You just said that little girl named Mu Liluo has the ability to sense the secret realm?"
Xie Shiyuan's expression changed slightly, and his voice deepened. "Holy Son, she cannot practice cultivation. If she were to use that ability, it would only burn her lifespan. Absolutely not."
Di Chen sighed and held his chin, "Why are you so fierce? I was just asking."
Xie Shiyuan's face changed drastically. He turned to look at Wen Xingyan, as if he had heard it wrong.
Wen Xingyan nodded numbly and said, "You heard it right, because I heard it too."
Xuan Mu's expression was indescribable. Di Chen felt like he had been possessed since he arrived in Tianyuan Continent. When did the Holy Son of the Di family become so easy to talk to!
Why did what he said just now feel like he was just acting like a spoiled child?
Xie Shiyuan felt that she was sick. No, maybe it was because she hadn't slept for several days. Yes, yes, she should pay attention to rest.
Just when Xie Shiyuan was doubting his life, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from outside the camp.
Inside the camp, the air, which had been slightly stagnant due to the strange atmosphere, was suddenly torn apart by the rapid and heavy sound of horse hooves.
The sound came from far away, like thunder before a storm, foreshadowing the arrival of uninvited guests.
The expressions on the four people's faces faded instantly. They stood up and looked at each other.
Xuan Mu, with a slender figure, crossed his arms and said, "This sound must have at least several hundred people."
Xie Shiyuan narrowed his eyes, "So many people came to our camp, I'm afraid they must be some important people from Tianyu Palace."
At this time, the others also came out of the tents one after another.
Hearing the noise, he came over with a puzzled look on his face, "What's wrong?"
A handsome young man crossed his arms and said, "People from the Tianyu Palace have arrived. There are quite a few of them this time. Let's prepare to deal with them."
A trace of disgust appeared on Di Chen's face, but he nodded. "Well, I don't know what happened. Anyway, let's not cause a conflict."
The others nodded in agreement, stood up, and looked in the direction of the sound.
A moment later, an unexpected person appeared in sight.
Di Chen frowned and said in a low voice, "Ji Fusheng..."
Wen Xingyan and the other two looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes. Ji Fusheng, what was he doing here?
Xie Shiyuan pursed her lips slightly, her gaze subtly focused towards the camp. She hadn't sent Li Luo away yet, so she hoped nothing would happen...
Di Chen took two steps back and whispered, "Something might have happened."
As Di Chen whispered, the tranquility of the camp was broken by a burst of hurried footsteps. Ji Fusheng's figure gradually became clear. There was a hint of urgency in his steps, and his clothes fluttered in the wind. Hundreds of elite disciples of Tianyu Palace followed behind him, which seemed out of tune with the peaceful atmosphere in the camp.
His eyes swept across everyone's faces, with a complex emotion between his brows.
Di Chen spoke first, his voice cold, "Palace Master, how come you have time to come to Broken Soul Mountains today?"
The air around them seemed to freeze for a moment. Ji Fusheng took a deep breath, and his voice pierced through the afterglow of the morning light, carrying a force that could not be ignored. "Holy Son, I have come here today for an important matter."
He narrowed his eyes and looked around, his voice sinking slightly, "The latest clue, the fragment of the jade, is with Luo Li."
Di Chen frowned slightly. "Luo Li? Is she the young master of the Luo family who disappeared in the ancient secret realm that you mentioned earlier? Has she come out?"
A trace of suspicion flashed across Di Chen's brows, and then his sharp gaze cast into the distance, as if it could penetrate the mountains and forests. "So the reason why the Palace Master came here today is that you can't find her, right?"
Beside him, the expressions of the other descenders did not change much. After all, it didn't matter to them who had the thing. As long as they could get the thing, they would have a legitimate reason to return to the gods.
They couldn't stay in this shabby place for even a second.
At this moment, a clear sound of bells came from far away, penetrating the moment of silence.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a girl in a smoky pink dress with an ancient jade hairpin in her hair walking out of the tent with light steps.
Her face was pure and elegant, and her eyes sparkled with wisdom and tenacity. It was Mu Liluo.
Her appearance was like a clear spring in the mountains, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Xie Shiyuan gritted his teeth. This was bad. Ji Fusheng came too suddenly.
The girl yawned and stretched lazily, her posture like a willow branch waking up in spring, soft yet full of vitality.
The sunlight filtered through the sparse clouds and fell onto her smoky pink dress, which fluttered gently like peach blossoms blooming in the morning mist, hazy yet gorgeous.
The simple jade hairpin in her hair gleamed with a warm luster in the light, complementing her pure and elegant face and adding a touch of ethereal air.
The girl walked lightly towards the crowd, with a barely perceptible eagerness in her steps, as if she was looking for a familiar figure.
Her eyes moved among the crowd, finally settling on Xie Shiyuan, and a faint smile inadvertently appeared at the corner of her mouth.
However, when she saw a group of strangers, she paused, the smile on her face became stiff, and she looked at Xie Shiyuan with dependence and uneasiness in her eyes.
