Chapter 999 Asking for pills?
Mu Wuzhi echoed, "Of course not! Cousin A'li is amazing! If it weren't for A'li in this Ninth Level Trial, I don't know what would have happened."
Luo Li waved her hand and said, "Second cousin, you're too kind. We're just looking out for each other."
The three of them ate snacks and talked at the same time.
Luo Li learned from them more about the past of Qingfeng Valley and the legendary stories of the ancestors of the Mu family.
"By the way, cousin A'li, the ancestral worship ceremony in a few days is a big event for our Mu family." Mu Siyan said seriously, "There will be many rituals. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me and Wu Zhi."
Luo Li nodded in thanks, and became more and more curious about this ancestral worship ceremony.
Before I knew it, the night had deepened and the fog in the valley grew thicker.
"It's getting late. We should go back and rest. We still have a lot to do tomorrow." Mu Wuzhi stood up and put the things on the stone table away.
Luo Li also stood up, greeted Mu Siyan, and the two of them walked back along the way they came.
Along the way, Luo Li's mind was full of thoughts. She thought about her mother, the upcoming ancestral worship ceremony, and the road ahead.
After returning to her residence, Luo Li lay on the bed, looking at the moonlight pouring in through the window, and closed her eyes.
The next morning, before the first ray of sunlight fully penetrated the valley, Luo Li got up early.
She walked out of the room and took a deep breath of the fresh morning air, which was filled with the fragrance of spiritual plants and the faint scent of morning dew.
"Cousin A'li, good morning!" Mu Wuzhi's voice came from not far away. Luo Li turned around and saw Mu Wuzhi jumping towards her.
"Good morning, second cousin." Luo Li responded with a smile.
"Grandpa said he would take you to the library today. Can I go with you?" Mu Wuzhi looked at Luo Li expectantly.
"Of course." Luo Li agreed happily.
The two of them went to the valley master's residence together, and after meeting Mu Zhengnian and Mu Qingxuan, they walked towards the library.
The library is located deep in Qingfeng Valley, surrounded by dense bamboo forests, making it particularly quiet and peaceful.
Mu Zhengnian stepped forward and gently pushed open the door of the pavilion, and an old and ancient atmosphere hit him in the face.
"Here are collected the notes, secret manuals of martial arts and various ancient books of our Qingfeng Valley ancestors." Mu Zhengnian said as he led everyone into the library.
Luo Li glanced at the bookshelf, her heart filled with shock.
The richness of the book collection here far exceeded her imagination.
Mu Qingxuan brought Luo Li to the top floor and found the notes left by Mu Wanqing in a corner.
Luo Li carefully opened the notebook, and the beautiful handwriting came into view. Her hands trembled slightly, and an indescribable emotion surged in her heart.
"Mother..." Luo Li murmured softly, as if through these notes, she could have a conversation with her mother across time and space.
She flipped through the pages one by one. The notes recorded Mu Wanqing's experience in cultivation, daily life, and her yearning for the outside world.
As she watched, a sincere smile appeared in Luo Li's eyes.
She never thought that she could learn about her mother's past in this way.
Mu Wuzhi, Mu Zhengnian and others stood aside, looking at Luo Li quietly without disturbing her.
After a long time, Luo Li closed her notes, raised her head, and a determined light flashed in her eyes.
"Grandpa, second uncle, second cousin, I want to take these notes back and keep them well, is that okay?" Luo Li looked at Mu Zhengnian.
Mu Zhengnian nodded and said lovingly, "Of course, this is what your mother left for you, so you should keep it well."
After leaving the library, Luo Li couldn't calm down for a long time. She returned to her residence, placed her notes on the table, and began to read them carefully again.
Before I knew it, the sun was setting and the sky was getting darker.
Suddenly, a rapid bell rang, breaking the silence of the valley.
Luo Li looked up suddenly and saw several figures rapidly flying across the sky in the twilight outside the window.
The bell rang quickly and heavily, which was the warning signal when Qingfeng Valley encountered an emergency.
"Something happened?" She quickly put away her notes, pushed the door open and walked out, just in time to run into Mu Wuzhi who was rushing over.
"Cousin A'li!" Mu Wuzhi said calmly, "The Mu family has brought people here again, and the valley protection formation has been triggered!"
"The Mu family?" Luo Li's eyes flashed, "Let's go and take a look!"
Judging from Mu Wuzhi's condition, this kind of situation should happen from time to time.
Although Qingfeng Valley had already split from the Mu family, my grandfather was still a brother of the head of the Mu family. I wonder what the Mu family is planning this time.
When the two arrived at the valley entrance, Mu Zhengnian and others were already ready.
Through the translucent barrier, one can see a dense crowd of people outside, roughly estimated to be at least a hundred people.
The leader was a middle-aged man in a dark green robe with a sinister face and a powerful aura of oppression.
Behind him stood dozens of elite members of the Mu family, each of them exuding a fierce aura.
Mu Zhengnian stood inside the barrier and said in a deep voice, "Mu Chenfeng, what is your intention in bringing so many people to trespass into Qingfeng Valley?"
The man named Mu Chenfeng sneered, "Third Uncle, it's been a few years since we last met, and you've become more distant. We are family. I came here today simply on the orders of the Patriarch to ask Third Uncle for some medicinal pills."
Mu Chenfeng said as a matter of course: "Qingfeng Valley is a force famous for alchemy. Third Uncle shouldn't refuse to give it to me, right?"
Mu Chenzhou's brows twisted into the shape of a "川" character, his eyes flashing with anger. "Mu Chenfeng, you say that so easily! Every elixir in this Qingfeng Valley is made with a vast amount of natural treasures and painstaking effort. How can you just give it to me whenever you want it? Your Mu family has become increasingly brazen in recent years. And today you brought so many people here to force us. Do you think my Qingfeng Valley is deserted?"
"Okay, okay," Mu Chenfeng said lazily, "Just ask for the pill, okay? Quickly bring out the pill, I need to go back quickly."
Mu Zhengnian's face instantly darkened, and his voice grew colder. "Mu Chenfeng, Qingfeng Valley's elixirs are never given away casually. Besides, you're mobilizing so many people. How can you possibly be asking for medicine?"
Mu Chenfeng still had that sneer on his face, not caring about Mu Zhengnian's anger at all. With a wave of his hand, the Mu family members behind him took a step forward, showing a tense attitude.
"Uncle San, you can't say that. The Mu family is in trouble now and urgently needs the Qingfeng Valley's Huitian Pill. I hope Uncle San will consider our relationship as a fellow clan member and not be stingy."
Luo Li stood at the back of the team, looking at the aggressive group of people outside, thinking secretly in her heart.
She whispered to Mu Wuzhi beside her, "What is the Huitian Pill? Is it precious? Why are they going to such great lengths to get one?"
She had never seen this Huitian Pill in ancient books, but judging by the large number of troops mobilized by the Mu family, it should be no less than the level of a great lord.
