"Palace Master Lie Yun!" Nie Tian recognised the identity of the black-robed figure, and a cold gleam flashed across his eyes.
It was this person who had leaked the secret of Mo Ruxi's Sage Body, causing her to become the target of public criticism.
Now, he had openly disobeyed the Holy Judge's orders and appeared at Mo Ruxi's residence. He clearly harbored ill intentions.
However, Palace Master Lie Yun was very quiet at the moment, as if he was waiting for something.
Nie Tian concealed his aura and pretended to be unconcerned as he entered the small courtyard.
Mo Ruxi and Xue 'er were discussing something happily, giggling from time to time. Clearly, they had not noticed Palace Master Lie Yun's presence.
Nie Tian did not dare to act rashly. The other party was a lord-level existence, and he was no match for him at the moment.
Facing a powerhouse like Palace Master Lie Yun, Nie Tian once again felt powerless.
Even though his talent was heaven-defying, he was still helpless in the face of an absolute difference in strength.
If Palace Master Lie Yun attacked now, he would definitely not be able to withstand it.
However, the strange thing was that Palace Master Lie Yun seemed to be afraid of something and had no intention of attacking.
In fact, with his strength, controlling Nie Tian and the others was just a matter of an instant. Nie Tian was very puzzled as to why he did not attack.
"Nie Tian, you're here." Mo Ruxi and Xue 'er were overjoyed to see Nie Tian appear and shouted in unison.
Nie Tian smiled faintly and did not show any emotions.
At this moment, Palace Master Lie Yun's figure suddenly moved, approaching Nie Tian and the others bit by bit.
Nie Tian sensed through his divine sense that the other party was approaching. A hundred meters, fifty meters, thirty meters, and was about to enter the small courtyard. Sweat the size of beans seeped out of his forehead.
"Boom!" However, at this moment, the void suddenly trembled slightly, and an overbearing but imperceptible spiritual wave spread out in a flash.
Nie Tian could not help but narrow his eyes when he felt this spiritual wave. His expression was extremely shocked as he instantly understood that there was someone else lurking in the dark!
The reason why Palace Master Lie Yun did not make a move was because he feared the existence of this person in the dark.
This person did not seem to want to fight with Palace Master Lie Yun. That spiritual fluctuation just now was clearly a warning to Palace Master Lie Yun not to act rashly.
"Leave!" Lie Yu noticed something and was clearly caught off guard. He frowned and roared in his heart before his figure flashed and instantly vanished.
The spiritual wave also disappeared completely, and the surrounding void returned to normal as if nothing had happened.
"What a terrifying technique!" Nie Tian sensed everything. He was shocked, but he didn't show it on his face.
He didn't expect that there would actually be a person hiding in the dark. Furthermore, this person's concealment methods were extremely brilliant. If he hadn't taken the initiative to release a spiritual wave to warn Lie Yu, Nie Tian wouldn't have been able to detect this person's existence at all.
Actually, if it wasn't for Nie Tian's strong spiritual power and the Holographic Divine Rune, he wouldn't have been able to detect the existence of the person in the dark.
"This person is obviously protecting Ru Xi and Xue 'er. Who could it be?" Nie Tian's eyes flickered and he was bewildered.
The first person he thought of was Chi Gui, the secret guard who was hiding beside Chi Yuefeng.
However, Chi Gui's aura didn't seem to be similar to this person. Moreover, he had no reason to protect Ru Xi and Xue 'er.
More importantly, Chi Gui's concealment methods might not be that powerful. His strength was definitely below Palace Master Lie Yun and it was impossible for him to scare the latter away.
"Is it the Heartbroken Young Master?" Nie Tian thought and guessed. However, he felt that it wasn't very possible. The Heartbroken Young Master was obviously not the kind of person who would hide in the dark.
"Nie Tian, can you come out and meet me?" Just as Nie Tian was puzzled, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind. It was actually a very familiar voice. It was the inner sect elder of the Inescapable Net, Dugu Lingtian!
"It's him!" When Nie Tian heard the identity of the person who transmitted the voice, his eyes narrowed and he was stunned. He seemed to have understood something.
He immediately informed Mo Ruxi and Xue 'er and left, following Dugu Lingtian's aura.
A moment later, Nie Tian arrived at a hidden canyon in the Scarlet Crescent Mountain Range. Standing in front of him was a black-robed figure. It was Dugu Lingtian.
"Elder Dugu, it's been a while." Nie Tian let out a long breath. He subconsciously maintained his vigilance and sensed his surroundings to see if there was anyone else around.
"Nie Tian, you really didn't disappoint me. You've successfully merged with the boundary of the universe." Dugu Lingtian smiled. His hawk-like eyes swept across Nie Tian. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Elder Dugu, you didn't appear at the Scarlet Crescent Mountain Range during the Grand Competition of the Twelve Shrine. You couldn't be here to tell me this, right?" Nie Tian chuckled. His eyes were filled with determination.
It was actually very dangerous for Dugu Lingtian to appear here. It would be terrible if he was discovered by others.
"Nie Tian, there's naturally a reason why I'm here." Dugu Lingtian's eyes flickered. "The Nets and Nets Above and Earth helped you merge the boundary of the universe. Now, I want to make another deal with you."
"Speak." Nie Tian didn't beat around the bush. He spoke in a Cold tone.
"Mother Earth Origin Stone." Dugu Lingtian's lips curled into a strange smile as he uttered these four words.
Nie Tian was stunned. He frowned. He didn't expect Dugu Lingtian to know about the Mother Earth Stone.
But then again, the Nets and Nets Above and Earth knew about the Mother Earth Stone. It wasn't strange at all.
Dugu Lingtian let out a strange laugh and said, "In this Divine Palace Grand Competition, the prize for the champion of the Lowgod Realm is a piece of Mother Earth Stone. Our Nets Above Snares Below is very interested in this Mother Earth Stone and we hope to get it."
"You want to get the Mother Earth Stone from me?" Nie Tian was stunned. "What if I don't agree?"
Although he didn't know why the Nets and Nets Above and Earth wanted the Mother Earth Stone, Nie Tian didn't plan to continue the deal.
"For the safety of the girl with the Body of a Sage, you will definitely agree," Dugu Lingtian said calmly with a smile.
"Hmm?" Nie Tian's eyes flickered. He said Cold, "The Nets and Nets Above and Earth are indeed powerful. They know everything."
Previously, other than Nie Tian and the others, only the Holy Judgment and the 12 Palace Masters knew that Mo Ruxi had the Body of a Sage.
But now, the Nets and Nets Above and Earth also knew. Could there be someone from the Nets and Nets between the Holy Judgment and the 12 Palace Masters?
Thinking of this, Nie Tian's forehead was covered in sweat. The Nets and Nets Above and Earth was indeed a terrifying organization.
"Nie Tian, the Body of a Sage is something that everyone covets. Some people even want to destroy it even if they can't get it. With your current strength, you won't be able to protect that girl. Dugu Lingtian said indifferently, "You only have one choice right now, and that is to agree to this deal."
Eyebrows furrowed, Nie Tian asked coldly, "And then?"
