Mu Liang was very angry. Being used by Xie Tian was secondary. More importantly, he realized that every time he came into contact with Xie Tian, he could not gain any advantage. k.
The reason why he agreed to let Little Nine and the others join the Hegemon Sword Sect was because he knew their backgrounds and experiences.
To be accepted as disciples of the Soul Blade Sect, there was no need to talk about their martial talent. To not implicate the sect, the six of them would never return. That was why Mu Liang made this decision.
But he did not have any face for Xie Tian. Even though Xie Tian thanked him sincerely, he still kept a straight face and said coldly, "Speak."
"When I was in the River West Corridor, I met someone who could track me with his nose." Xie Tian thought of Li Yuanyang and smiled. "Later, I realized that he was tracking me through the smell of blood, so …"
Mu Liang frowned and asked, "So what?"
"So from then on, whenever I realized that I was being followed, I would think about the smell."
"Hmph, that's impossible. The Thousand Mile Incense is odorless. You're wrong!" Mu Liang's expression changed and he asked suspiciously, "You knew that I was following you and then discovered the Thousand Mile Incense?"
Xie Tian smiled. "Yes, after discovering that you were following me, I suspected that there was something on me. Later, I soaked my old clothes with water and found that there were three specks of green light on the back. After I dug them out and dried them, they turned into white powder. I've never touched this powder before."
"I see." Mu Liang heaved a sigh of relief. The Thousand Mile Incense was reliable. But he was also interested in how Xie Tian had discovered that he was being followed. He was just about to ask when he saw Xie Tian's' why don't you ask me? 'look. He immediately felt very annoyed.
"I still have things to do. Goodbye!"
Suppressing his doubts, Mu Liang turned and left. Xie Tian smiled and said slowly, "That round stone …"
"What else do you want to ask me? Just say it!" Mu Liang took a deep breath, turned around, and said coldly, "Tell me about the round stone! And how did you know I was following you?"
"Sure," Xie Tian agreed readily. He stretched out his index finger and asked, "First, about your family and Black Water."
Mu Liang sighed and said after a while, "Black Water is the legend of the Song Kingdom. Do you know that?"
"Yes."
"His legend is built upon the extraordinary shame and humiliation our Mu family has suffered in the past forty years!"
It turned out that forty years ago, a great war broke out between the Song and the Chu Kingdoms. The Chu Kingdom's commander-in-chief was Mu Liang's grandfather, Mu Wu. At that time, he was the commander-in-chief of the Chu Kingdom's army. Under his command, the Chu Kingdom won many victories, defeating the Song Kingdom.
At this time, the three major sects of the Jianghu of the Kingdom of Song sent three hundred elite warriors to attack the commander's camp at night. Mu Wu's plan was flawless, and the team was surrounded. After a fierce battle, there were only five people left.
These five people were able to fight until now. Not to mention their cultivation, their temperament was also excellent. Mu Wu was moved and personally tried to persuade them to surrender. In the end, only Black Water was willing to surrender.
"After Black Water agreed to surrender, he killed the four warriors of Song Kingdom who cursed at him before my grandfather said anything." Mu Liang's face was full of resentment. "Then he knelt down in front of my grandfather and took him hostage."
Xie Tian nodded. "All is fair in war."
"You …" Mu Liang frowned. Seeing that Xie Tian didn't mean to ridicule him, his anger subsided. He said fiercely, "My grandfather broke through the encirclement and returned to the Song Kingdom's camp. Half a month later, the Chu Kingdom and the Song Kingdom reached an agreement. The Chu Kingdom's army withdrew from the north of Huijiang and paid a lot of gold and silver to get back the Great Marshal."
"Then?"
Mu Liang's eyes flashed. "Seven days after my grandfather returned, he vomited blood and died. After an autopsy, he was found to have been poisoned. My father investigated for many years and finally confirmed that Black Water was the one who poisoned him."
"That's a big grudge." Xie Tian finally understood that what made the Mu Family angry was not Black Water's fake surrender, but the shameless method of poisoning.
"For forty years, the Mu Family has always wanted to kill Black Water." Mu Liang sighed. "But I didn't expect that he would die in your hands."
Xie Tian nodded and said, "He died miserably."
"Hmph, don't think that I will thank you."
"I didn't mean that."
Mu Liang was slightly relieved and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Xie Tian thought for a while and asked, "Do you know about the Sword Tomb?"
Mu Liang's pupils shrank and he said in surprise, "So this is why you came to Hegemon Sword City. How did you know that the Sword Tomb would make an exception to recruit disciples this year?"
Xie Tian was happy. "Making an exception to recruit disciples!"
"It seems that you don't know anything." Mu Liang was speechless for a long time before he explained, "I don't know the details, but the Sword Tomb is indeed recruiting disciples."
"So you also came?"
Mu Liang nodded and sighed. "Since the shame forty years ago, despite His Majesty's repeated persuasion, the Mu Family has no face to be an official in the court. Going to the Sword Tomb to cultivate is my only goal."
Xie Tian said happily, "Let's go together."
"Why should I take you there?" Mu Liang looked at Xie Tian with pity. "You don't even have Natal Inner Qi. You can't pass the first test. It's better to live in Chu until you die of old age."
"I don't have it now, but I might have it when the time comes."
Mu Liang heard this and laughed. "Are you kidding me? Alright, I've said what I need to say. Now tell me what I want to know!"
Xie Tian slowly stretched out the third finger and said with a smile, "Take me to the Sword Tomb."
Mu Liang struggled angrily for a long time and shouted fiercely, "Okay, hurry up and tell me, or I will …"
"That round stone can lead to a deep cave under the Yin Shen Peak, and there is a cultivation method in the cave."
"What cultivation method?" Mu Liang's face was red, and his body was trembling with excitement.
"Qi Scripture."
"Qi, Qi Scripture!" Mu Liang's eyes bulged.
Xie Tian nodded, then slightly mobilized his Inner Qi and said, "I'm practicing that cultivation method."
Feeling the strong Qi Scripture aura on Xie Tian, Mu Liang was so disappointed that he wanted to cry. "I didn't expect that years of effort was wasted on this garbage cultivation method. God is making fun of people!"
"Actually, this cultivation method is not bad." Xie Tian comforted him.
As soon as these words came out, Mu Liang reacted. The young man beside him had only practiced Qi Scripture, but he had grown to such a monstrous level. If he practiced a high-grade Inner Qi cultivation method, wouldn't he be on the verge of ascension?
"Hmph!" For a moment, Mu Liang's heart was full of envy, jealousy, and hatred. He wanted to turn around and leave, but he remembered that there was still a question that had been tormenting him. He asked in a muffled voice, "How did you know that I was following you?"
"The boss of the Precious Treasure Pavilion said that the Black Bone Fan is not worth much." Xie Tian's eyes were full of smiles as he joked, "So the person who bought the fan with a lot of money must have an ulterior motive."
"You're ruthless!" Mu Liang's face darkened, and he turned around to leave. "Wait for me at the inn when the sun sets. I'll say this first: I'm only responsible for bringing you to the Sword Tomb. Whether you can become a disciple of the Sword Tomb will depend on your ability!"
Seeing Mu Liang leave angrily, Xie Tian's eyes were full of smiles. The first time he met Mu Liang, he earned a lot of money. The second time he met Mu Liang, he got out of the encirclement. The third time, not only did he let Little Nine and the others enter the Hegemon Sword Sect, he could also smoothly go to the Sword Tomb.
This is the lucky star in my life, Xie Tian thought.
What Xie Tian did not know was that Mu Liang seemed to be leaving angrily, but when he turned around, his face was filled with a complacent smile.
