Having been away from home for so long, just seeing the gates of the Invincible Sect filled me with a myriad of emotions.
As her fingers touched the door, Sheng Ning's eyes filled with a smile. "I wonder how Master has been these past few days..."
The tightly closed door was pushed open.
When they saw the ground covered with withered yellow leaves, Sheng Ning and the others did not find it strange.
Mo Jingchun couldn't leave the courtyard; he might not have even stepped out of his room after they left for the Northern Region.
The thought of that aggrieved look on his face made Sheng Ning quicken his pace and head towards that secluded little courtyard.
Seeing that she quickened her pace, Su Daiyuan and the others immediately followed, making hand seals as they walked to clear away the fallen leaves covering the ground.
"Master, your disciple has brought you back roast goose."
Sheng Ning pushed open the gate to the courtyard, only to find it completely dark.
Seeing his junior sister standing motionless at the door, Yu Ye immediately went over and asked, "What's wrong, junior sister? Why aren't you...?"
Before he could even utter the word "go in," he peeked through the gap into the courtyard and immediately squeezed inside.
"What happened? How could this be?"
"Old man? Master? Mo Jingchun!"
Yu Ye's personality was inherently irritable and restless.
The old man, who had been eagerly anticipating returning to the sect, had now vanished without a trace.
Yu stood in front of the house, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked, his eyes dark as he stared at the dusty interior.
The room was covered in dust, and even the various rare and precious items piled up in every corner of the room were covered in dust.
It's clear that this house has been uninhabited for quite some time.
When Yu Ye and the others entered this room before, although it was also filled with things like this, it was spotless.
Someone took their master away after they left the mainland.
Su Daiyuan stood solemnly in the courtyard, looking up at the sky above. As before, the sky was gloomy, and it seemed that if his master said another word, lightning would strike his master's head.
But now that my master is gone, the dark clouds overhead remain.
There was no trace of anyone else.
The little white dumpling's words brought Sheng Ning back to her senses.
She glanced around the small courtyard, finally fixing her gaze on the rare and precious treasures inside the house. "Yes, if someone had really been there, they wouldn't have gone this way."
Mo Jingchun's room was a treasure trove, filled with treasures that others desired but could not obtain.
If some cultivators took Mo Jingchun away while they were away, they wouldn't leave so easily after seeing these treasures.
However, if the person who takes someone away is a powerful figure like Xuanming Xianying, they will inevitably leave their presence in this courtyard.
Sheng Ning stepped to the courtyard gate, and upon seeing the familiar charred mark on the threshold, she frowned. "But why did Master leave?"
What is he hiding from?
"I'm going to fucking kill those people!"
My fingers just landed on the charred threshold, blackened by lightning.
Hearing the angry voice behind her, she turned around and saw Yu Ye looking fierce, carrying a laser cannon and about to seek revenge.
Standing up at the door, Sheng Ning reached out and stopped him. "Fourth Senior Brother, calm down."
"How am I supposed to stay calm!" Yu was furious. "The old man is terrified of strangers, and he has a special constitution. He might be locked up somewhere crying right now!"
The thought of his master being bullied made him uncontrollably irritable.
Sheng Ning raised her hand and placed it on his shoulder.
Her cultivation level is now far superior to Yu Ye's.
Under the pressure, Yu was forced to stop and could not move.
"Fourth Senior Brother, calm down."
“There were no signs of intrusion in Master’s courtyard, and there were also marks from being struck by lightning at the gate. He probably left on his own.”
"He walked away by himself? Where could he have gone?" Yu Ye finally calmed down a lot, and you could tell from his bloodshot eyes that he had just recovered from his emotional outburst.
"If he left on his own, then it wouldn't be surprising."
Unlike the slightly out-of-control emotions of the Invincible Sect disciples.
Qi Wenyao, who had come with him to the courtyard, appeared extremely calm.
He walked around the courtyard and finally came to Sheng Ning and the others.
After looking up and meeting the questioning gazes of the group of six, he smiled and shrugged. "My father once told me that Mo Jingchun is an extraordinary person."
"If you count the time, he should be older than my parents. When my parents first met him, they were told that the entire cultivation world was about to be destroyed."
"Back then, there was no such thing as the ancient war. My mother thought he was crazy and kicked him out."
"Until later, the ancient war broke out..."
Even Su Daiyuan, the eldest disciple, had never heard of his master's deeds.
In his past life, he had even taken his master out of the sect with him, but his master was too timid, and each time they would return to the Invincible Sect after going only a short distance.
In this life, Master is the same as in his previous life, but he is even more afraid of seeing people than in his previous life.
These dark clouds have inexplicably appeared in this small courtyard.
"And then what happened? What became of my master?"
Qi Wenyao shook his head. "Later, the ancient war broke out, causing great suffering and death. My mother and... perished. In order to save my mother and me, my father did not go to find your master."
“However, my father said that he had appeared in the Northern Region and many people had received his guidance. Unfortunately, no one was willing to listen to his ‘crazy talk,’ and no one has seen him since.”
"Later, after hearing what Fellow Daoist Sheng told my mother, I realized that the extraordinary person my father had mentioned was your master."
The ancient war happened tens of thousands of years ago.
Mo Jingchun had already appeared before the ancient war.
After listening to what he said, a thought suddenly flashed through Sheng Ning's mind.
She wanted to grab it, but the thought flashed by too quickly, and by the time she tried to grasp it, the thought had already vanished.
Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly as she heard the little white dumpling's voice again.
'If this is what you, young friend, are saying, then indeed, you have already met that extraordinary person.'
Seeing that the little white dumpling also remembered Mo Jingchun, Sheng Ning led him aside and asked, "You also recognize my master?"
"I don't really know him. When I first signed the contract with you, he appeared acting completely crazy, telling you to leave immediately and find somewhere to hide."
'Looking back now, he must have known you would perish in that ancient war, which is why he made you find a place to hide to avoid dying in it.'
'But I'm curious, how did he know 'you' would die?'
Sheng Ning held the little white dumpling in her palm.
His already furrowed brows deepened even more after hearing what he said.
A being who existed before the ancient war, who has lived for tens of thousands of years, is afraid of a few bolts of heavenly lightning.
If you told this to outsiders, probably no one would believe you.
