Wei Zidao's face changed because he was a late stage Immortal Emperor. In the Vine Mountain of Safety, most people would only talk and not fight because they were worried that the Vine Mountain of Safety would be destroyed. Another reason was that fighting here was simply too exhausting.
Now that Mo Wuji didn't give him any face, he was infuriated and felt that he had lost face in front of Pang Hong and Shang Hegao. Moreover, he had just been injured and was extremely fearful of Mo Wuji.
Just as Wei Zidao was contemplating whether to fight, Shang Hegao suddenly laughed, "Since Sect Head Mo doesn't want to do us the honor, then please leave. We were just about to remodel this place."
Mo Wuji was slightly disappointed because he actually wanted to provoke Wei Zidao and make him attack. If Wei Zidao attacked, then Pang Hong would also attack. He had spent a lot of effort to set up this deathtrap array and he was 70% confident that he could kill all these fellas with the help of the array.
Unfortunately, Wei Zidao hesitated at the last moment and Shang Hegao intervened to prevent the fight from happening.
"Let's go." Mo Wuji didn't continue to provoke them as he said a few words to Han Qingru and Fei Ling before leaving the place that he had just set up.
Seeing the trio leave the Vine Mountain of Safety, Pang Hong, Shang Hegao and Wei Zidao didn't choose to attack.
Now that they had found a way to obtain large amounts of water from the Sword Qi River, the most important thing for them was to recover their cultivation level. Once they recovered their cultivation level, they could take Mo Wuji's head anytime they wanted.
"Immortal Friend Zidao, luckily you didn't attack just now. This Sect Head Mo isn't simple." After Mo Wuji left, Shang Hegao said cautiously.
Wei Zidao understood Shang Hegao's meaning and nodded, "Indeed, to be able to set up a Grade 6 deathtrap array here means that there's a backup plan."
Pang Hong added, "We don't know where this person came from but he's very cunning. He provoked Brother Zidao just now because he wanted to lure us into this deathtrap array. "
If this wasn't the Sword Prison, if they still had their strength. A mere Grade 6 immortal array could be destroyed by them with just a breath. But now that they were in the Sword Prison, they didn't even have 1% of their strength.
"That's right, I've had some contact with this person. Up until now, I haven't figured out anything about him. Since he left behind a Grade 6 deathtrap array, the three of us should go in and take a look at it. "Wei Zidao agreed.
"Alright." Both Pang Hong and Shang Hegao agreed to Wei Zidao's suggestion.
Three of them entered the Trap and Kill Array, while the rest stayed outside.
Just as Wei Zidao and co. entered the deathtrap array, the early-stage Immortal Emperor behind Pang Hong turned and left.
In the Vine Mountain of Safety, even if an Immortal Emperor joined an organisation, he would still be an existence that was second only to Pang Hong, Shang Hegao and Wei Zidao.
Now that the Immortal Emperor under Pang Hong didn't wait for their boss, he turned and left. Naturally, no one dared to question him.
"Fellow Immortal Jian, where are you going? Why don't you wait for me?" Just as Pang Hong's subordinate Immortal Emperor walked out of the Vine Mountain of Safety, another voice came from behind him.
This early-stage Immortal Emperor stopped and stared coldly at the fella that chased after him, "Nie Chongan, we'll mind our own business. You're from the Righteousness Mountain, so what does it have to do with you where I go?"
He was well aware of how strong Nie Chongan was. The Righteousness Mountain had two Immortal Emperors. Other than the intermediate Immortal Emperor Shang Hegao, the other one was this early-stage Immortal Emperor Nie Chongan.
"Haha, Immortal Friend Jian, it has a lot to do with you. If I'm not wrong, you should be leaving the Devil's Hand to find that Sect Head Mo right? Do you know how Revered Lord Pang would deal with a traitor under him? "The Immortal Emperor called Nie Chongan chuckled as he wasn't afraid of this Immortal Emperor Jian at all.
Immortal Emperor Jian said faintly, "Firstly, Immortal Friend Pang Hong and I are merely working together. I'm not related to him and I didn't sell myself to him. When I want to leave the Devil's Hand is my own business. There's no such thing as a traitor. Secondly, even though you, Nie Chongan, are not bad, I, Jian Mingcheng, am not afraid of you. "
Nie Chongan didn't mind Jian Mingcheng's words as he said calmly, "Brother Jian, you're mistaken. I'm not here to do anything to you because I have the same thoughts as you. "
"Don't tell me you're also …" Jian Mingcheng looked at Nie Chongan in shock.
Nie Chongan only nodded his head and didn't say anything else.
…
After leaving the Vine Mountain of Safety, Han Qingru could barely withstand the surrounding sword qi because of her physique tempering technique. Fei Ling was much stronger than Han Qingru and he frequently went to the Sword Qi River to collect water. Even without a physique tempering technique, he was still much more relaxed than Han Qingru in the short term.
The sword qi continuously removed some blood mist from Han Qingru's body but Mo Wuji didn't choose to help. Han Qingru had a physique tempering technique so she had to endure this process. After all, he couldn't be by Han Qingru's side at all times so it was more important for Han Qingru to adapt.
"Sect Head Mo, please hold on …" Just as Mo Wuji and Fei Ling walked for a few miles, a voice called out to them from behind.
Mo Wuji stopped as there were two people. One of them had a medium build and was slightly plump with bright eyes. Mo Wuji recognised this person as he was the early stage Immortal Emperor who was with Shang Hegao. Even though he didn't make a move, Mo Wuji had been observing him. Wei Zidao also told him that this person was called Nie Chongan and he was very strong.
The other person had a smaller build and a head full of black hair. The most attractive thing about him was that he only had nine fingers which seemed to be natural. This person was also an early stage Immortal Emperor but Mo Wuji didn't know his name as he only knew that he was with Pang Hong.
There were two early stage Immortal Emperors following Pang Hong and one of them was almost killed by him but was saved by Shang Hegao. This fella was the other early stage Immortal Emperor.
Mo Wuji frowned as he knew that these two were early stage Immortal Emperors and he wouldn't be afraid if they were to fight within the deathtrap array that he had set up previously. But now, without the deathtrap array and Wei Zidao's help, it would be difficult for him and Fei Ling to deal with these two Immortal Emperors.
"These two are Devil Hand's Jian Mingcheng and Righteousness Mountain's Nie Chongan. They are both very strong." Fei Ling even took out his magic treasure as he stood beside Mo Wuji cautiously.
He was now a member of Ping Fan so even if he knew that he would die, he still had to fight with all his might.
Mo Wuji then realised that the nine fingered black haired Immortal Emperor was called Jian Mingcheng and he didn't take out his Half Moon Weighted Halberd. This was outside the Vine Mountain of Safety so even if he couldn't beat them, it wouldn't be easy for them to kill him.
"Why did the two of you leave the Vine Mountain of Safety to look for me?" Mo Wuji clasped his fists as he spoke in a tone that was neither overbearing nor servile. He had fought Grand Emperors before so why would he be afraid of two early stage Immortal Emperors whose cultivation levels had dropped drastically in the Sword Prison?
"Jian Mingcheng greets Sect Head Mo."
"Nie Chongan greets Sect Head Mo."
The two of them clasped their fists at the same time as they greeted Mo Wuji respectfully. Mo Wuji was an experienced man so he knew that the way they addressed him was a little weird. Whether it was Jian Mingcheng or Nie Chongan, they didn't mention Devil Hand or Righteousness Mountain.
Mo Wuji didn't say anything as he waited for the two of them to continue explaining.
Jian Mingcheng didn't speak much as he looked at Nie Chongan. Nie Chongan said directly, "The two of us are planning to leave the Vine Mountain of Safety and follow Sect Head Mo."
Fei Ling stared at the two of them blankly. Leave the Vine Mountain of Safety? Leaving such a good place but following the sect head to seek death? No matter how he thought about it, it didn't seem right.
Mo Wuji was also confused as he asked, "The two of you want to follow me? What's the reason? You must know that we have nowhere to go after leaving the Vine Mountain of Safety. "
Nie Chongan explained, "Sect Head Mo should be heading to the desert behind the sword qi whirlpool. The sword qi there is slightly weaker and even though it's not as good as the Vine Mountain of Safety, it's a safer place to stay."
Mo Wuji said faintly, "If I can stay in the Vine Mountain of Safety, I won't leave."
In other words, he didn't trust Nie Chongan and Jian Mingcheng.
Jian Mingcheng was a man of few words but when he heard Mo Wuji's suspicion, he quickly stood up and said, "If I'm not wrong, Sect Head Mo had already planned to leave the Vine Mountain of Safety. If we came a little later, Sect Head Mo might have already left the Vine Mountain of Safety. "
Mo Wuji didn't express his opinion as Wei Zidao and co. probably knew that he was planning to leave the Vine Mountain of Safety. After all, after Wei Zidao and co. took back their territory, he didn't even return and left immediately.
Seeing that Mo Wuji was still unmoved, Nie Chongan gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "Sect Head Mo, Jian Mingcheng and I suspect that there's something strange about the Vine Mountain of Safety. We shouldn't stay here for long."
Mo Wuji, who was initially suspicious, said immediately after hearing Nie Chongan's words, "Since that's the case, let's leave together. We'll talk when we reach the desert. "
"Yes, Sect Head Mo." Hearing Mo Wuji's words, Nie Chongan and Jian Mingcheng were overjoyed as they knew that Mo Wuji's words meant that he had temporarily accepted the two of them.
The five of them walked for another few miles and saw a huge whirlpool rising from afar. The moment the spiritual will got close to the whirlpool, it would be torn apart by the boundless sword qi. Moreover, when the spiritual will landed at the edge of the whirlpool, it felt as though it was going to be sucked in unknowingly.
"This is the sword qi whirlpool and we need to leave a little. Otherwise, we might get sucked in by the sword qi whirlpool. "Nie Chongan pointed at the whirlpool and said fearfully.
Even without Nie Chongan's reminder, Mo Wuji had already avoided it. The whirlpool was unfathomably deep and both his spirit storage channel's spiritual will and sea of consciousness's spiritual will disappeared. If it wasn't for the fact that Mo Wuji didn't want to expose his spiritual eye, he would have used it to see what was inside the sword qi whirlpool.
