As for the speculation that the Scorching Sun Valley's ending was caused by the Sword Monarch's intervention …
Mu Zun was quite certain.
The only flaw in his speculation, which was based on his experience, knowledge, and wisdom, was why his disciple, Feng Po, didn't stay with the twenty-nine people, and instead disappeared without a trace.
After learning from the twenty-nine people that Feng Po left with the remaining soldiers of the Scorching Sun Valley, Mu Zun's heart was clouded by a dark cloud.
No one could see through this dark cloud. When he received the news from the Southern Heavenly Gate that Feng Po had returned, he disappeared.
At least, that was what it seemed like on the surface.
After all, from then on, Mu Zun's face was brimming with a joyful smile.
In the eyes of the people who came to congratulate him, this kind of smile could only be the joy of knowing that his beloved disciple was alive.
As the Southern Heavenly Gate had an increase of hundreds of thousands of people, the speed of the allied forces of the four Heavenly Gates' triumphant return soared.
In just over a month, the allied forces of the allied forces returned to their respective Heavenly Gates. Under the lead of Mu Zun, the higher-ups arrived at the Southern Heavenly Gate, which was the weakest of the five Heavenly Gates.
"It's time to fix this door."
"Heh, what has it got to do with the gate? After all, the Southern Heavenly Gate is the furthest Heavenly Gate from the battlefield. It's normal. "
"That's right, but … after this incident, Elder Mu Zun will probably go to the Eastern Heavenly Gate …"
"Hehe, maybe even the Central Heavenly Gate …"
…
The appearance of the remaining soldiers made the higher-ups of the allied forces chase away the dark clouds above their heads. Instead, it was replaced by sunshine that brought them infinite joy and warmth.
In their eyes, Feng Po, who had escaped from the Sword Monarch's hands, was also using this method to affirm Elder Mu Zun's contribution in the Scorching Sun Valley's incident.
So …
Mu Zun, who had been silent for only two to three months, was once again valued by the higher-ups of the allied forces.
Everyone had to carry the sedan chair, not to mention this was Elder Supreme Wood's territory.
The words of respect from the upper echelons caused the hearts of the upper echelons of the factions in the South-Heaven Gate to sink. Their gazes toward Mu Zun were filled with a hint of respect.
"Haha, you're flattering me …" Mu Zun smiled faintly. "The Old Man is satisfied to know that my disciple Feng Po is fine. As for the other matters … they have nothing to do with the Old Man. On the other hand, Fellow Daoist Tan Tang will have to suffer."
Tan Tang, who had followed him, was flattered. He hurriedly bowed and said, "Daoist Brother, your words make me feel ashamed."
"Oh, I almost forgot about that matter. Tan Tang, you can be considered to have quite a good fortune …"
"However, this is a separate matter. No one can take away what belongs to you, Tan Tang. However, there are some things that you also understand. It's better that you don't have any extravagant hopes for things that even we can't control!"
…
Of course, Tan Tang understood the deeper meaning behind it.
"Fellow Daoist Mu Zun's disciple was taken away by the Sword Emperor. It can only be because of Mu Zun …"
If the Sword Emperor really wanted to express his appreciation for Mu Zun through this action …
The Sword Emperor would definitely not follow the deal between him and Mu Zun and give the benefits that belonged to Mu Zun to Tan Tang.
"Lords, of course I understand. To be honest …" Tan Tang smiled bitterly and looked at Mu Zun. "I really don't want to make a deal with Fellow Daoist Mu Zun, but I don't know …"
"Tan Daoyou, don't let your imagination run wild." Mu Zun laughed and walked forward. "The Old Man only wants to see Martial Disciple Feng Po now. Haha! Lords, this way please! "
While introducing the higher-ups of the Southern Heaven Gate, the higher-ups of the Alliance Army followed Mu Zun to the Hunyuan Immortal Sect's base.
Meanwhile, a few members of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect had already run back to the base to report the news.
"Oh my god, oh my god, this is incredible!"
"Elder Mu, he, he's incredible!"
"The higher-ups of the Alliance Army praised Elder Mu to the heavens. It seems like the rumors are true!"
"That's right, and Feng Po … Senior Brother Feng Po! Elder Mu keeps calling him Senior Brother Feng Po! "
…
Deacon Shi stared at this scene with his mouth agape.
After a long while, he gritted his teeth and ran away.
"Elder Mu!"
"Feng Po!"
"I have nothing to fear even if I empty the base, let alone millions of military merits! Hahahaha!"
…
Xie Tian, who was planning to go to the Dao Treasury of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect to study the Equal Heaven Killing Art, was dragged away by Deacon Shi as soon as he walked out of the cave abode.
"Deacon Shi, this is …"
"Good news!" Deacon Shi suppressed his excitement and solemnly changed the status of the mission token that belonged to Xie Tian to complete. "Alright, check your scavenger token and see if your military merits have arrived!"
Xie Tian took out the scavenger token and probed it with his consciousness. He immediately said joyfully, "Four million six hundred and twenty thousand …"
"Haha, how could it be that much? Even if you include that Quasi-emperor, it's only slightly more than four million and five hundred thousand …" Deacon Shi thought he had made a mistake and glanced at the mission roulette before saying solemnly, "Although we have a good relationship, we still have to do business. When you mention this to others, don't let them mistakenly think that I'm taking care of you."
"I was foolish," Xie Tian said with a smile. "I already have the extra military merits. Thank you, Deacon Shi. I'll take my leave now."
"Wait, wait, wait!" How could Deacon Shi let Xie Tian leave just like that? He smiled and said, "Speaking of which, I should have informed Senior Brother Feng Po first, but he's busy now, so … Brother Xie Tian, can you spare some time to inform Senior Brother Feng Po?"
Xie Tian did not understand Deacon Shi's meaning, but he still said respectfully, "I will inform Senior Brother Feng Po."
"Haha, alright, alright, you can go now."
After watching Xie Tian leave the cave residence, Deacon Shi clapped his hands excitedly. "Hey, I can finally ride on someone's coattails!"
After a while, his expression suddenly froze.
"You already have it? Oh my god, a mere scavenger has more than a hundred thousand military merits? Tsk … "
Thinking of what Xie Tian had just said, Deacon Shi could not help but be speechless.
"If other soldiers knew about this, they would die of envy. Even a scavenger would be exceptionally different if he had a coattail …"
At this time …
The coattail he mentioned, Feng Po, had also heard about what happened at the Southern Heavenly Gate.
After a long silence, he laughed, then stood up and bowed toward Elder Mu's cave residence.
"Congratulations Master, congratulations Master!"
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves, turned around, and walked out of the cave residence.
Along the way, he ignored all the flattering and respectful words and deeds from his fellow disciples.
Because he felt that he was not qualified to share such glory with his master.
He even seemed to be afraid that his existence would tarnish this glory …
He left very quickly.
But no matter how fast he was …
He was not as fast as Mu Zun's sight.
However, when this elder, who cared about his beloved disciple, saw that his beloved disciple had chosen to leave in the opposite direction just as he was about to return …
He did not shout out loud.
Instead, he tried his best to play the role of the host and warmly invited the alliance's higher-ups into the camp.
