The tightly-shut hall was finally opened.
The members of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect who were waiting outside did not dare to turn around and look, but from the corner of their eyes, they could easily see the relief on the faces of the three elders.
Even though they were in disbelief, they could not help but let out a sigh of relief.
Elder Ba would not come to the South-Heaven Gate's base just because of Chu Mo's attack.
Everyone felt relieved, as if they had barely escaped with their lives.
Only the expressions of the three elders seemed as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders, and they were slightly absent-minded. Everyone was unable to understand this, and it caused them to guess exactly what sort of price the three elders had paid to make Chu Mo promise not to tell their Master about this matter.
The price had to be paid.
Even if Chu Mo did not say anything, or even if Chu Mo did not agree to the three elders' request, the fact that he was attacked at the South-Heaven Gate alone was enough to make the Hunyuan Immortal Sect's base pay a great price.
Therefore, when the three elders obtained what they wanted ….
Whether it was the standard of Chu Mo's bodyguards or the South-Heaven Gate's Dao Scriptures, the three elders did not hesitate to raise it to the limit.
As for the ten million contribution points given to Chu Mo, it was just a small gift.
All in all, Chu Mo had gained a lot.
However, what made the three elders absent-minded was not the pain brought by the price, but...
"Do you believe it?"
"The Old Man can't explain it clearly..."
"I don't think it's possible. This kind of thing... Compared to Xun Song, if he made such great progress in the Ancient Stairway Tower, would he not tell Old Mu?"
"That makes sense. After all, it's the Ancient Stairway Tower. This is an extraordinary achievement..."
"But Chu Mo... Didn't you notice that his personality is very different from Xun Song's, perhaps..."
"Again, can you find the reason why he didn't tell Elder Ba?"
"This... sigh, the Old Man is strange. Even if Junior Nephew Chu Mo is calm, it's impossible for him to be so calm that we would stand up in shock..."
"Sigh, when he smiled without saying a word, the Old Man even thought that he was the junior and he was the calm senior, heh..."
"Yeah, the Old Man even guessed..."
"Guess what?"
"The Old Man even guessed that Chu Mo thought that challenging the Ancient Sky Stairway was a trivial matter, so he …"
Hiss!
…
The three elders could not figure out why Chu Mo did not tell Elder Ba about his performance in the Ancient Sky Stairway Tower.
This made no sense to them.
Not to mention the fact that a disciple had to inform his master of his actions, this was the basic quality of a disciple …
Wasn't it shameful to challenge the ancient stairway?
Even if he failed, it would not be shameful!
Once he succeeded, he would bring honor to his ancestors!
And Chu Mo's triumphant progress was giving his Master face, a great deal of face!
Chu Mo didn't even report this. Did he not regard Elder Ba as his master in his heart, or did he think that this matter was really insignificant?
There were too many insignificant things.
For example, even inside the encampment, there were hundreds of Heaven's Equal stage experts following behind him.
For example, the additional ten million military merits that could tempt any almighty being in the Human-Demon Battlefield.
For example, the jade talisman in his hand that could allow the Hidden Path Treasury to lift the restrictions on him.
Chu Mo did not care about any of this.
But he also had things that he cared about.
For example, who wanted to kill him.
For example, challenging the Ancient Sky Stairway Tower.
Even though he challenged the Ancient Sky Stairway Tower, it was not entirely for the Ancient Sky Stairway Trials. More importantly, it was because only with the qualifications to challenge the Ancient Sky Stairway Tower could he have the chance to learn from the big boss.
Even he did not expect that he would have such a shocking performance when challenging the Ancient Sky Stairway Tower.
Therefore, it was not that he did not have the intention to tell Elder Ba about this to please his Master. Instead, he had the urge to tell his Master hundreds of times.
But these urges were ultimately just urges, and did not turn into actual actions.
Because in the many years of challenging the Ancient Sky Stairway Tower, he finally understood one thing.
"It's not my aptitude, not my talent, not Master's teachings that have allowed me to advance so triumphantly. It's …"
A lowly figure appeared in Chu Mo's mind as he walked.
Other than being lowly, this figure's most obvious characteristic was his calmness and indifference.
He was so calm that when the Burial Tablet Cliff collapsed, the three Heaven's Equal elders looked as if their fathers had died, but he was still as calm as ever.
"Compared to you, my insignificant achievements are nothing …"
Because of this mentality …
Every time he succeeded, the joy he felt gave him the urge to tell his Master. But every time this urge was calmed down by the calmness given by this lowly figure.
And every time this calming down, not only did it not make him depressed, but it made him feel even more proud and happy than when he told his Master.
This kind of happiness made him addicted.
And while he was addicted, his personality was gradually changing.
However, there was a limit to any change.
Rivers and mountains changed …
It was hard to change a person's nature.
Especially when a person was facing a life and death situation, when faced with the most important decision in life …
They would often abandon everything and directly unleash their nature and instincts that were engraved in their Divine Soul.
And this time's attack was exactly such a situation.
Although he looked calm, his heart was actually raging like a raging sea.
You dare to kill me?
Do you really think I'm easy to deal with?
Do you really think my Master is useless?
Do you really think I have a good temper?
If I wasn't smart, I would have been long dead!
If I don't take revenge, am I still a man!
…
The three elders did not know what Chu Mo was thinking. So when they pulled Chu Mo into the hall, Chu Mo's heart was filled with a sneer.
I almost lost my life, and you're still trying to stop me from telling my Master?
If I don't break the sky of the Southern Heavenly Gate, my surname is not Chu!
But this kind of willful, arrogant, and unruly emotion did not last for long.
Because of the habit that he had developed over the years …
The figure appeared again.
Every time it appeared, his heart would calm down a little.
Every time it calmed down, the resentment and anger in his heart would sink a little.
When the three elders' endless chatter ended, Chu Mo found that there was no less anger in his heart than before, and the calmness in the deepest part of his heart.
And when the emotions in his heart evolved to this state …
"The big boss definitely won't bother to seek revenge from the adults …"
Take revenge on your own.
When Chu Mo made this decision …
The joy that grew in his heart almost made him faint from excitement.
He did not even plan to seek revenge from his Master …
Not to mention showing off the Ancient Stairway Tower to his Master, which was of no importance?
With this kind of mentality …
Chu Mo walked to the door of his cave abode, turned around and thanked the mighty figures who protected him, then turned around and walked into the cave abode. At the same time, he silently said to himself,
"Chu Mo, this time, you're awesome!"
