Chapter 76 Chapter 76 Li Xuan was in the flower forest,...
Li Xuan was in the flower forest, half squatting down, and gently picked up the ashes on the ground with his slender fingers.
The remaining spiritual energy in the ashes evaporated upwards.
Li Xuan frowned slightly. He picked up the ashes mixed with soil with one hand, stood up and looked around.
There are no clues left, who is it?
······
After Li Yian finished trimming the branches with a pair of large scissors with a gloomy face, he was about to go to the well to fetch water when he heard hurried footsteps outside the gate.
"Li Yian, something's up!" Ah Quan and the others strode in, their faces filled with joy. "We found a mechanical tunnel in the cave outside the city. The old man wasn't lying."
After hearing this, Li Yian quickly stood up and his mood improved a little.
"We need to report this matter to the High Priest first before taking any action. Let's go together." As soon as A Quan finished speaking, Li Yian hurriedly dropped the bucket and followed him.
In the study, An Si frowned slightly, "Fish Fairy? I've never heard of it." He stood up and walked to the bookshelf behind him, picked up a thick ancient book and began to read it.
The joy on Ah Quan's face faded slightly. "Even the knowledgeable priest doesn't know. Could it be some kind of demon or monster?"
Li Yian lowered his head and thought: The novel does not explicitly state that the water elf was originally a fish.
An Si checked several lists of scattered immortals, but found no record of the Fish Immortal. He put the book down and said, "Whatever it is, check it out. If it's a scattered immortal, that's great. If it's a demon, it must be exterminated as soon as possible."
"yes!"
An Si thought for a moment, then looked at Li Yian and asked, "Have you been back to the Mu Mansion to see Mu Yin these days?"
Li Yian was stunned and said, "No." She had been living in the theological society these days, doing odd jobs during the day and reading scriptures at night.
An Si frowned. He had just made a fortune telling and it showed that the Theological Society would undergo earth-shaking changes. As to whether the changes were good or bad, it was still unknown.
Thinking of the huge fluctuation of spiritual power just now, he felt a little uneasy.
Mu Yang is currently seriously injured and has lost all his strength. That spiritual power cannot have come from Mu Yang.
Mu Yang once said that there was a strange aura in Mu Yin's body. He later checked and found that it was not a human aura, not an evil aura, but the aura of God, and there was more than one god.
In other words, in addition to the dead Youtian, there is another sleeping god in Mu Yin's body. And that sleeping god protects Mu Yin's body, allowing Mu Yin's fragile human body to resist the evil and Youtian's destruction.
If that huge spiritual power was emitted by Mu Yin, it meant that the god had awakened.
"Yian, go back and see Mu Yin. If you find anything unusual, come back and report immediately." An Si said in a deep voice.
Li Yian noticed An Si's serious tone and recalled that Mu Yin had followed her not long ago. She felt a little uneasy and quickly bowed her head before turning away.
When I walked to the door, I saw Li Xuan. Li Xuan would never leave Mu Yang and come here on his own initiative unless An Si summoned him.
Li Yian was slightly surprised to see Li Xuan. Without giving it much thought, she nodded slightly and quickly left.
She hoped nothing bad would happen to Mu Yin. He had previously lived in the Theological Society, helping the High Priest with chores, and the High Priest had considered admitting him to the Academy of Literature. But he had inexplicably left the Theological Society without a word, which was truly unsettling.
She rushed to the Mu Mansion almost non-stop. After arriving at the Mu Mansion, she went to the backyard and walked towards the remote courtyard.
She seldom came here. The yard was desolate and the flowers and plants had not been tended, which meant that few people came here either.
Li Yian frowned slightly, walked through the messy grass, walked to the door and knocked.
But no one responded.
Just as Li Yian was about to push open the door, he heard a cold voice coming from behind him.
"It's rare for my sister to come to see me."
Li Yi paused, then turned around and looked at Mu Yin who was standing in the middle of the yard.
After only two weeks of not seeing each other, Mu Yin seemed to have grown several years older. He no longer looked like the frail boy she remembered. He had grown taller and his face had become more mature.
He was dressed in black brocade, his long, inky hair casually tied in a low ponytail at the back of his head, his hair hanging down just to his waist, and a red teardrop mole near the corner of his eye on his profile. His face was handsome and strange.
If he was 50% similar to Mu Yang before, now that he has grown up, he looks nothing like Mu Yang, but his beauty is not inferior to Mu Yang.
If Mu Yin hadn't called her sister, Li Yian really wouldn't have recognized him.
Mu Yin raised his pale lips, "An Si asked you to come, right? If he hadn't asked you to come, why would you come?"
These words and this tone could never have been spoken by the aloof and cautious Mu Yin in her memory.
"You, are you really Mu Yin?"
Mu Yin laughed out loud, his voice slightly hoarse. He stroked his face gently, "Sister, can't you recognize me? Can this skin compare to Mu Yang's?"
Li Yian's face was tense, not knowing what had possessed Mu Yin.
Although he had changed a lot, she had taken care of him for a period of time, and her sixth sense told her that the person in front of her was indeed the real Mu Yin.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Mu Yin's smile gradually turned cold and his eyes became gloomy.
"Sister, what do you want me to do?" He walked slowly towards Li Yian, bent down slightly and looked at her directly.
As the distance between the two of them shortened, Mu Yin's enchantingly handsome face came into view.
Li Yian took a half step back, "Just wanted to make sure you were okay."
"I'm fine, I couldn't be better."
Mu Yin suddenly swung his wide sleeves backwards, and a hurricane picked up the fallen leaves on the ground and rushed backwards.
Li Xuan, who was hiding in the woods in the distance, quickly raised his sword and slashed back. The hurricane encountered Li Xuan's sword energy and erupted with a huge roar, causing a shock wave that made Li Yian, who was far away, take several steps back.
"Sister, you also brought Mu Yang's people here."
Mu Yin's expression grew colder. He blocked Li Yian behind him and looked gloomily at Li Xuan who was walking out of the woods in the distance.
Li Xuan was dressed in purple, his hair cascading down like a waterfall, his face icy cold. A fallen leaf had cut a bloody scar on his jade-like face. He gently wiped the blood from his face with his slender fingers, "You're the first person to injure my face."
"How dare you?" His eyes were cold, and he suddenly pulled out a handful of demon-subduing arrows out of thin air, pulled up the longbow, and countless light arrows flew towards him like lightning with the sound of breaking wind.
Mu Yin flipped his palm, and a dazzling shield of light flew out, expanding instantly to protect him and Li Yian. The light arrow collided with the shield with a deafening explosion, and the houses behind them collapsed with a loud bang, sending up clouds of dust.
Li Yian was stunned. When Mu Yin raised his hand to attack Li Xuan, she quickly grabbed Mu Yin's wrist and said, "Stop!"
Li Xuan still had an angry look on his face, with five arrows on the bow, ready to shoot.
"stop!"
Li Yian hurriedly stood in front of Mu Yin.
She never expected that Mu Yin could easily block Li Xuan's arrow. After all, this arrow had killed countless demons in an instant.
She also didn't expect that Li Xuan, who was always aloof, would be so easily angered by Mu Yin just because of a slight scratch on his face.
In order to prevent the fight from escalating, she had to rush out to mediate.
She came to visit Mu Yin, not to watch them fight, nor to watch them demolish the houses in the Mu Mansion.
Mu Yin behind him looked down at Li Yian and removed the light shield.
Seeing this, Li Xuan snorted coldly and put down his longbow.
Li Yian glanced back at the collapsed house, holding his forehead with a headache. The huge commotion attracted the servants of the Mu Mansion, as well as the Mu family's father and mother.
Unfortunately, Li Yian and the other three people present were not talkative people. Faced with this situation, they did not come out to explain for a while.
The Mu family's head father looked at Li Yian, Li Xuan, and Mu Yin, and finally fixed his gaze on Mu Yin - this unfamiliar handsome and charming young man. He said coldly, "Who are you? Did you do all this?"
Mu Yin lowered his head and said nothing.
Finally, Li Yian came out to explain, "Master, he is Mu Yin."
"Mu Yin?" The Lord Father was skeptical.
Mu Yin's tone was somewhat sarcastic, "You've never come to see me, so naturally you don't recognize me."
He looked back at the collapsed house. Wasn't even his last place to stand gone?
He glanced again at his parents, who looked wary of him, and at the servants, whose faces varied and who were whispering about whether he had been possessed by the evil spirit again. His expression gradually grew colder, and with a wave of his sleeves, his body disappeared into the air.
Li Yian tried to grab his hand, but missed.
The longbow in Li Xuan's hand turned into a spot of light and disappeared. He then pulled out the long sword that was stuck in the ground, wiped it carefully, and inserted it into the scabbard.
"It was me who collapsed the house. I will ask my father to transfer the compensation back to you." After saying this in a calm voice, Li Xuan turned and left.
"I dare not." The Mu family's head father hurriedly and respectfully watched Li Xuan leave, then turned back to look at Li Yian, "Yian, what's going on? Has Mu Yin been possessed by evil spirits again?"
"I don't know." Li Yian didn't know why Mu Yin suddenly seemed like a different person. She just recalled Mu Yin's expression when he left, which made her see what Mu Yin used to be like. He was obviously in need of love, but he had to put on a cold face and speak sarcastically to maintain his dignity.
She suddenly felt a surge of resentment at the Mu family's harsh treatment of Mu Yin. Mu Yin had been near death for over a month before the ceremony, and the Mu family's head father and mistress hadn't visited him. She could have made an excuse for them, saying they'd stayed home for safety amidst the widespread evil before the ceremony. But after the ceremony, Mu Yin had been back at the Mu residence for over half a month. Even at such close quarters, hadn't the Mu family's head father and mistress ever visited him?
The weed-covered yard didn't look like the residence of a young master of a royal family. Even the yard of Li Yian, an outsider, was better than Mu Yin's.
But what right did she have to blame the Mu family's head father and head mother? After all, she rarely interacted with Mu Yin.
Mu Yang's brilliance was too dazzling, easily stealing everyone's attention. Meanwhile, Mu Yin's personality was inherently solitary, gloomy, and unpleasant.
Although Li Yian felt pity for him, she focused more on herself. She had tried her best to survive and had no time to pay attention to others.
Her thoughts were all over the place, and her mood was getting worse. She said to the Mu family's head father, "I have something to report to the high priest. I'll go back to the theological institute first."
As she was leaving, she heard the Mu family's head father behind her say to her, "Yian, go home with Mu Yang for dinner someday." After a pause, he added, "And find Mu Yin back.
