Chapter 262 The So-called Trust
He Jingyue saw him come out and immediately walked forward and asked, "Chen Mu, are you okay?"
Mu Chen said with a look of relief: "Master Jiang Feng, please show some mercy. Nothing happened."
"Do you really have any solution for Mr. Jiang's physical condition?" He Jingyue asked.
"I overestimated my own abilities. Even Tower Master Jiang couldn't do anything about Young Master Jiang's health, let alone me." Mu Chen said with an embarrassed smile.
He Jingyue looked at Mu Chen and couldn't help feeling a little strange.
"Chen Mu, why did Young Master Jiang suddenly attack you?" He Jingyue asked in confusion.
Mu Chen smiled helplessly and said, "He probably just doesn't like me."
"But he said you were playing tricks." He Jingyue frowned.
Mu Chen's heart trembled, and a look of resentment appeared on his face. Mu Chen smiled helplessly, and his smile was filled with an indescribable desolation and loneliness. "Maybe it's because I look like a ghost, so he said that."
He Jingyue looked at Mu Chen's expression and couldn't help but feel a little apologetic, "Sorry."
Mu Chen quickly waved his hands and said, "Miss He, you are embarrassing me by saying this."
He Jingyue gritted her teeth, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Ms. He, if there is nothing else, I will leave first." Mu Chen said.
He Jingyue nodded and said "Okay."
He Jingyue looked at Mu Chen's back, and an indescribable strange feeling surged in her heart.
"Ms. He." Shi Jingtian stood behind He Jingyue with a smile on his face.
He Jingyue looked at Shi Jingtian and asked, "Master Shi, what's the matter?"
Shi Jingtian waved his fan and said with a smile, "Nothing serious. I'm just surprised that the Formation Tower has lost Bai Shao and gained a talent like Chen Mu, who not only understands formations but also medical skills."
He Jingyue smiled awkwardly and said, "Chen Mu, how can you compare with Bai Shao!"
Shi Jingtian looked at Chen Mu's back disapprovingly, put away his folding fan, and said, "I think Chen Mu's strength is not inferior to Bai Shao's."
"Mr. Shi, you're joking. Mr. Bai's strength is obvious to all. Even Wu Zong is not his match. How can Chen Mu compare with Mr. Bai!" He Jingyue said with disapproval.
Two days ago, Bai family.
"Father, have you found out anything?" Ye Shi looked at Bai Chenxing eagerly.
Bai Chenxing said with a gloomy expression: "We found out a lot."
"What is it?" Ye Shi asked eagerly.
"There are three places similar to Lingta Continent, including Lingta Continent. The five Lingta in the place you came from have been conquered by Muchen. The Lingta in the other two places have also been conquered."
Even though there is little contact between Zhongzhou and the outside world, the news of the Spirit Tower being conquered should have been passed on long ago. However, someone interfered and interrupted the transmission of the news.
Ye Shi frowned and asked, "Who conquered the spirit towers in those two places?"
"One of the spiritual pagodas was conquered over two hundred years ago. Because it was so long ago, it's hard to trace," Bai Chenxing said. The five spiritual pagodas were likely also conquered by the Fate Clan. The Fate Clan's plot to seize the spiritual pagodas was not something they had done overnight.
Ye Shi opened his eyes and asked in confusion, "It's been over two hundred years? Yet, the Five Towers of Zhongzhou are still in good condition."
Bai Chenxing nodded and said, "Those people should have tried to conquer the Five Towers of Central Continent, but failed."
According to Muchen, he has to practice the five arts to the late eighth level before he turns thirty, so that he can inherit the five spirit towers. The Fate Clan has five different people who will inherit them, and most likely these five people will also need to practice the five arts to the late eighth level before they turn thirty. It is not easy to practice the five arts to the late eighth level.
Ye Shi bit his lip and asked, "What about the five spirit towers in the third place?"
Bai Chenxing took out a jade pendant and released a video.
"Zhuang Yu? Ah! It doesn't look like Zhuang Yu. She looks very similar to Zhuang Yu, but it seems not." Ye Shi muttered.
Bai Chenxing nodded and said, "This is a video I had someone get from the Outlands. The person in the video is called Zhuang Jin, and he's surrounded by five men. Each of these five men has their own strengths. They're very high-profile in the Outlands, but very low-key in Central Continent, and they've all concealed their strength. One of them is the Shi Jingtian that Mu Chen mentioned."
Zhuang Yu: “…”
Bai Chenxing narrowed his eyes and said, "Zhuang Yu and Zhuang Jin seem to be twins. Zhuang Yu was sent to the outer realm probably to inherit the Five Spirits Pagoda."
Ye Shi's eyes flickered as he said, "Ah! Mu Chen guessed it right! Mu Chen is so smart!"
Bai Chenxing twitched the corner of his mouth, nodded, and said, "Yes, Mu Chen is the smartest." Zhuang Yu should have succeeded, but Xin Yang changed his fate against the will of heaven, disrupting the deployment of the Fate Clan.
"I have to find Mu Chen as soon as possible." Ye Shi said hesitantly.
"Shi Jingtian is here. You'd better not get too close to Mu Chen for the time being, so as not to arouse other people's suspicion." Bai Chenxing said coldly.
Zhuang Yu sighed lightly and said unwillingly, "Then I'll send him a message and ask him to be careful."
Bai Chenxing nodded and said, "Okay."
Formation Tower.
Mu Chen looked at the letter in his hand for the twentieth time, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Thinking of Shi Jingtian, Mu Chen bit his bit unwillingly. Zhuang Yu was wilting, and another Zhuang Ya jumped out. It was really a mess. This world was really not peaceful.
Noticing the footsteps outside, Mu Chen quickly put away the communication jade pendant in his hand.
"Mr. Jiang, is there anything wrong?" Mu Chen asked the person who came in.
Jiang Feng threw a space ring towards Mu Chen and said, "Do you think these are enough?"
Mu Chen's eyes swept lightly over the space ring. Jiang Feng's money should not be too well-off. There was everything in the space ring, and it was barely enough to make up six million medium-grade Yuanshi.
A slight blush flashed across Jiang Feng's face. If it were five years ago, six million medium-grade Yuanshi would not be a big deal for him. However, his strength has declined over the years, and he has gradually become a laughing stock in the Inscription Tower. His status in front of Jiang Chengjin has also been greatly reduced. These six million medium-grade Yuanshi are already his entire fortune, and he even shamelessly borrowed a lot from several friends.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Almost done. This is a level seven Ju Yuan inscription. I've already disassembled it. Give it to your grandfather and he should be able to upgrade it for you. Of course, if you trust me, I can also upgrade it for you."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Chen." Jiang Feng said readily.
Mu Chen was stunned for a moment. He just said it casually, but he didn't expect Jiang Feng to agree to it.
"Mr. Jiang, you really trust me!" Mu Chen said in surprise.
"Don't bother two people with the same matter. I believe in Mr. Chen's character." Jiang Feng said righteously.
Jiang Feng actually had no idea. His grandfather had been in seclusion two years ago. With his current status, he might not be able to ask his grandfather to come out. What's more... he couldn't wait any longer.
"Your grandfather is an eighth-level inscription master. It will be more reliable with him. Aren't you worried that I will fail?" Mu Chen asked.
Jiang Feng clenched his fists and said, "Mr. Chen can make a teleportation jade pendant. I believe in your inscription skills."
Mu Chen nodded, smiled sideways, and said, "It's hard to believe that Young Master Jiang trusts me so much. Come find me in the quiet room of the Formation Tower in seven days. I will prepare the materials needed for the inscription."
Jiang Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. What he paid to Chen Mu was all his family assets. A set of seventh-level inscription materials was not cheap.
If it were someone else, Mu Chen might not be so kind, but Jiang Feng was the grandson of the master of the Formation Tower and was in a competitor with Shi Jingtian. Mu Chen suspected that Shi Jingtian was responsible for Jiang Feng's health problems, so since Jiang Feng asked him to help, Mu Chen would do Jiang Feng a favor.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
He Jingyue saw Jiang Feng coming out of Muchen's room and couldn't help asking, "Why did Jiang Feng come to see you?"
Mu Chen smiled faintly and said, "Master Jiang said that Master Bai was not happy about this mission to break the formation and asked me if I had any solution. Master Bai and I are not very familiar with each other, so what can I do?"
He Jingyue sighed softly and said, "I see. I thought you had a solution for Jiang Feng's chronic illness. Speaking of which, it's really strange. Bai Yanxing loves money the most. The reward for this mission is not low, I don't know why he turned it down."
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes, thinking: Shi Jingtian's appearance has caused his father-in-law to sense a serious crisis. He feels that Zhuang Yu's strength is not enough and is doing everything he can to improve her. With Shi Jingtian's strength, it is likely that the other four people in Zhuang Jin's group are also strong. It is no wonder that his father-in-law is worried.
Mu Chen clenched his fists. Although his strength has improved rapidly recently, he still cannot be careless!
"You're here." Mu Chen raised his head while sitting in the quiet room.
Jiang Feng looked at Mu Chen with a strange expression.
"What's wrong?" Mu Chen asked. Compared to before, Mu Chen felt that Jiang Feng looked at him with a little more caution.
"Don't you know yet?" Jiang Feng looked at Mu Chen and said.
Mu Chen raised his eyebrows. In the past few days, in addition to asking Ye Shi to help collect the things needed for Jiang Feng's inscription, he has been refining his Yuanli. Although the level remains the same, his Yuanli is one third stronger than before. He is not very clear about the news outside.
Mu Chen shook his head, "I don't know."
"When we went out for fun yesterday, we were attacked by Wu Zong," Jiang Feng said.
Mu Chen raised his head and said with interest: "You can't help but find someone to do it."
Jiang Feng shook his head and said, "It wasn't me. I thought it was the person behind you who did it." In his current situation, he couldn't mobilize Wu Zong. Chen Mu reminded him not to provoke Shi Jingtian. Although he was holding it back, he was always eager to try. Fortunately, he didn't do it.
Mu Chen rolled his eyes and asked, "Shi Jingtian's strength has been exposed?"
Jiang Feng nodded, clenched his fists, and said, "Yes, that Wu Zong was no match for him. He scared him away. If there weren't so many people who came to watch the fun later, I might have been silenced by him."
When Jiang Feng thought of Shi Jingtian, he felt a chill all over his body. Such a powerful man had been pretending to be powerful and staying by his side in a humble manner. Shi Jingtian must have looked down on him behind his back.
Mu Chen: "...Since it's not Jiang Feng, then it's most likely my father-in-law. In this area, the Bai family is the local boss. If it's someone else, there's no need to provoke Shi Jingtian."
"He only has the strength of a six-star Martial Emperor, but he was able to repel the Martial Sect. He must have used some special means." Mu Chen asked.
Jiang Feng nodded and said, "Yes, he sacrificed a spirit tower, which seems to be an eighth-level magic weapon. It's strange to say, he only has the strength of a Martial Emperor, so he shouldn't be able to use an eighth-level magic weapon."
Mu Chen lowered his eyebrows and said, "Who knows? Maybe there is some special method."
Jiang Feng nodded and said, "Maybe." (To be continued, Liancheng Reading has more exciting content, reading to pursue dreams, writing to create the future!)
