Mu Lingfeng lay on the ground, his whole body in pain, his voice hoarse, "Maybe..."
"Then..." Mu Tianxue's tone was a little anxious, "Will they have doubts that they shouldn't have?"
"Not sure." Mu Lingfeng shook his head, "I haven't come into contact with anyone from the Xuanxian Sect yet."
"Then big brother, please help keep an eye on it. I don't want my second brother and you to be implicated in this matter. This is my problem in the first place. If it weren't for my poor health, my second brother wouldn't have..." Mu Tianxue felt more and more uncomfortable as he spoke, and his voice choked.
Mu Lingfeng lay on the ground, wanting to comfort Mu Tianxue, but his throat tasted fishy and blood was stuck in it.
Mu Tianxue was a little surprised when she found that Mu Lingfeng didn't say anything. Usually, Mu Lingfeng would comfort her at this time, so what happened today?
"Brother, if you don't want to help, go back. I'll let others handle this matter."
Mu Lingfeng frowned uncomfortably, and could only make a painful "hmm" sound from his throat.
Mu Tianxue's tone was full of disappointment. "Then I'll go take care of things first."
Mu Lingfeng could no longer hear Mu Tianxue's voice. He propped himself up, sat up and put a pill in his mouth.
The cultivation level of the leader of Xuanxian Sect was too high, causing him to suffer serious internal damage. During the whole process, Mu Tianxue did not care about him at all, and did not ask him whether he had encountered any accidents and therefore let those people go.
He was a little dazed and felt that Mu Tianxue now seemed different from before.
He forced himself to sit up despite the pain and practiced the Heart Sutra. At this time, several subordinates found Mu Lingfeng.
"Lord Lingfeng! I'm so glad you're okay! Let's go."
Mu Lingfeng's face was a little pale, and he glanced at his subordinates sideways.
"Don't worry, we'll just keep an eye on it and see if the Xuanxian Sect members make any other moves."
He still didn't want to let Mu Tianxue face the danger alone. If the people from Xuanxian Sect found out that this matter was related to Mu Tianxue, it might be disadvantageous to Mu Tianxue. He had to stop it.
"But... this place is not safe, and it's not conducive for you to recover." The subordinate was quite anxious. "If the Xuanxian Sect sends people out, it will be difficult for us to escape."
"I'll find a quiet cave to recuperate first." Mu Lingtian said.
Although the subordinates did not agree with this proposal, they nodded in agreement reluctantly.
In Xuanxian Sect, Yujiao and Fengyuexian have told the Sect Leader what they saw in Wuzhou.
"We knew before in Jixue City that those cultivators with water spiritual roots were captured in Yuzhou. Yuzhou is the territory of the Bai family, and Mu Tianxue's fiancé is a member of the Bai family. This time we found Mu Lingtian, who is Mu Tianxue's second brother. Both of them have a close relationship with Mu Tianxue. I guess this may not be their personal behavior, but Mu Tianxue's intention." Feng Yuexian analyzed very carefully.
I have to say that Feng Yuexian is still very smart when she is clear-headed.
Everyone present was also thoughtful.
"If it's a personal act, it's easy to clean up. But if it involves the empress, it will be a serious matter. If we continue investigating, I'm afraid it will be involved in these worldly disputes." The head of the sect looked bored, and seemed unwilling to continue the investigation.
The rules of their Xuanxian Sect are not to participate in worldly disputes, but to focus on cultivation and compete for the position of god.
The birth of a true god is the Xuanxian Sect's goal. Unlike worldly power and status, becoming a god is about seeing a wider world, gaining greater freedom, and a longer life.
Those who become emperors will last for ten thousand years, and those who become gods will be immortal.
The top sect in Jiuzhou naturally pursues that unattainable goal.
Yujiao and Feng Yuexian were both disciples of the Xuanxian Sect, so they naturally knew the sect's rules. They both fell silent.
Mu Lingjiu then asked, "What if they use this to embarrass my Xuanxian Sect disciples? Will the Sect Master still do nothing? We were chased all the way back to the sect by them, and they should pay the price for this."
The Xuanxian Sect Master's eyes were fixed, and the shadow was silent for a moment, and then he said:
"I will let the elders of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall handle this matter. You don't need to worry about it."
At this point, everyone knew that the leader had no intention of getting involved in the matter further and was ready to end it.
They and their fellow brothers and sisters came out of the hall in silence and flew towards Zhaixian Peak.
After they walked away, Feng Yuexian asked, "Are we just going to put up with this?"
Yu Jiao frowned, her brows furrowed with anger. "The Xuanxian Sect has always been like this. They won't delve into anything that could potentially spark a war. The Sect Leader clearly knew that this might have been done by Mu Tianxue, so he won't delve into it any further."
Lan Zhi closed his eyes and sighed helplessly, "Mu Tianxue is the Empress after all, controlling the Zhongzhou region. She also has several brothers who risked their lives for her, and a fiancé who loves her deeply. If a war breaks out, many cultivators in our sect will die."
"In order not to sacrifice more people, let's just drop the ball like this?" Feng Yuexian frowned, full of disapproval.
Lan Zhi didn't reply, but said, "I'll go see the eldest brother first and see what he says."
"Okay." Yujiao and Feng Yuexian nodded at the same time.
Mu Lingjiu immediately said, "I'll go find Luo Luo."
Luo Luo was picked up by someone before, and she had to go and see.
Feng Yuexian frowned and said, "My jade gourd is broken. I'll go ask the weapon refiner in the weapon refinery room to help me repair it."
"Why don't you ask me to repair it?" Yu Jiao looked expectant with starry eyes.
"Second Senior Sister, please just forget it..." Feng Yuexian looked embarrassed and ran away holding the jade gourd.
Feng Yuexian snorted, "Then I'll go and refine a protective magic weapon for my junior sister."
Several people went their separate ways.
Mu Lingjiu followed Luo Luo's breath and quickly found the immortal palace of the eldest brother, where he met Lan Zhi.
The two looked at each other.
"Fifth Senior Brother, are you looking for the eldest senior brother?"
Lan Zhi nodded, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Mu Lingjiu with clear blue eyes.
"Junior Sister is also looking for Senior Brother?"
Mu Lingjiu nodded. She guessed that it was Lu Zhibai who saved Luo Luo. After all, he was the only one in the Immortal Palace who had this ability.
"Then let's go in together?" Mu Lingjiu walked naturally to Lan Zhi's side.
This was not the first time that Mu Lingjiu came to see the eldest senior brother, but she never came in. Lu Zhibai seemed to not want to see her. She didn't know how she had offended him.
Lan Zhi didn't need to report when entering Lu Zhibai's palace, he could go in directly.
Mu Lingjiu naturally did not receive such treatment. After all, these doormen did not know Mu Lingjiu. In their minds, she was just a new junior sister who was not very familiar to them.
Lan Zhi hummed, feeling a little excited inside: "Ah! Junior sister took the initiative to come with me! I envy Senior Brother so much!"
Appearing calm, he took Mu Lingjiu into the Immortal Palace.
The doormen did not stop him. After all, Lan Zhi had always been treated as a half-master in their place, so it was okay for him to bring someone in.
Lu Zhibai had known they were coming in, and was leaning lazily on his chair, waiting for them to come forward.
Mu Lingjiu raised his eyes and looked at the man in the main seat. Even though he already knew that Lu Zhibai was the eldest senior brother, he was still a little surprised when he saw him. Lu Zhibai, with his spiritual energy fully unconcealed, was cold and unparalleled. He looked more domineering than what Chu had seen. The chief of Xuanxian Sect was indeed worthy of his reputation.
