He Mulong fished on Longxing Island every day, even leisurely.
He originally thought that it wouldn't be long before Mu Bingxin would obediently give in and come looking for him.
But after waiting for three days, there was no movement.
He couldn't help but feel a little strange, so he called Liu Sheng over and said, "Disciple, go find out if Mu Bingxin has done anything recently."
Liu Sheng accepted the order and left, but after a moment, he returned on a ray of light. After landing, he reported, "Master, something is wrong. I heard that Elder Mu has defeated many demonic cultivators in the past few days, and after visiting a few large clans in the inner sea this morning, she returned to Pengyuan Sect."
He Mulong frowned. Mu Bingxin's resistance and evasions were all within his expectations, but she didn't care about him at all. This reaction was a little strange, as if she really had something to rely on.
Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still any longer. However, just as he stood up, he slowly sat back down. Stroking his beard, his eyes flickered, and he said, "Liu Sheng, go capture someone for me."
Liu Sheng cupped his hands, "Please tell me, Master."
He Mulong whispered a few words in his ear, and Liu Sheng nodded, bowed, and said, "Disciple will go now."
Finished speaking, he leaped into a ray of light, looked up at the sky, and fled.
He Mulong sat in the same place for another ten minutes, then Just Now shouted and flew towards the sea.
In less than two hours, he could already see a ship sailing in front of him. Summoning his transcendence energy, he leaped forward and blocked the ship's path. He then pointed downwards and sent out a stream of Gang Qi to intercept the ship's bow. He shouted, "Elder Mu, please come out and meet me.
A ray of white light flew out from the boat and stopped in front of He Mulong. Then, the light dissipated and Mu Bing Xin's lotus feet stepped on the clouds, standing in the blue sky. Her attitude was very cold as she said, "So it's Spiritual Master He. Why did you call out to me?"
Zhenren He frowned and said, "Elder Mu, did you not read the letter that the old Taoist gave you?"
Mu Bingxin said in a slightly mocking tone, "This Seat has already read the letter, but this Seat feels that Spiritual Master He's suggestion is not appropriate, so let's just forget about it."
Zhenren He observed Zhenren Mu's words and expressions. From Zhenren Mu's attitude, he could sense that there was a change in the situation. Therefore, Zhenren Mu was not afraid of the threat of Taihao School.
He pondered inwardly and felt that this was not a good time to push her too hard, so he softened his tone and said, "Junior Sister Mu, for the past thousand years, without the protection of my Taihao School, I'm afraid that Pengyuan Sect would have long been wiped out. Moreover, the disciples of our two sects, Mi Zi, have mostly married each other. Now that the Devil Tribulation has begun, we should go through the difficulties together. If Junior Sister Mu has any concerns, you can tell me. I understand.
Reverend Mu raised his willowy eyebrows and shouted, "Are you saying I've wronged the sect? What a joke! It's true that your Taihao School and my Pengyuan Sect have a good friendship, but that's a thing of the past. For the past hundred years, all the talented disciples of my sect, Mi Zi, have been begged by your Taihao School to be Taoist companions. In the past hundred years, only three of them have achieved the Dan Transformation. Do you think that I don't know what your Taihao School is planning? Don't think that everyone in the world is stupid! You're just afraid that one of my Pengyuan Sect will be able to achieve the Cave, completely refine the Startling Heavenly Palace, and master the 'Celestial Fire Six Imperial Justice Technique', surpassing your Taihao School. "
Halfway through her words, Zhenren He's expression changed drastically. He was caught off guard that Zhenren Mu would actually announce such a secret. If it was overheard by someone, or if it flowed into the ears of the six devil sects, it would be very disadvantageous to Taihao School. Therefore, he roared angrily, "Shut up!"
His roar was like a rolling thunder, stirring up the waves below and also suppressing the second half of Zhenren Mu's words.
At this time, in the cabin of the ship, Priest Xu and Zhang Yan were sitting opposite each other.
Hearing this, Priest Xu chuckled and said, "Immortal Mu, you must have said this on purpose for fellow Daoist to hear."
Zhang Yan shook his head and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Mu is worrying too much. Since I've agreed to take on this matter, I won't give up halfway. Even if I don't have this Taoist technique, I'll still help her."
Outside, He Mulong repeatedly tried to persuade Mu Bingxin and said all kinds of good words, but he still couldn't persuade Mu Bingxin to change her mind.
It was also because he had pressured her too much earlier, which caused Mu Bingxin to have a bad impression of him. In addition, with Zhang Yan as her backer, the two sides were gradually drifting apart, and there was no longer any possibility of reconciliation.
He Mulong secretly said, "If that's the case, then don't blame me for not giving him face. For now, the only thing I can do is to put more pressure on him."
His face darkened and said, "Zhenren Mu, since you don't want to turn back, then it's up to you. Let's put this matter aside for now and talk about another matter. That day, I saw you hanging out with the Devil Sect's disciple Lao Zi. How do you explain this matter?"
Mu Bingxin was baffled and said, "I'm Pengyuan's Grand Elder Lao Zi, why would I collude with the Devil Sect? He Mulong, this excuse of yours is too bad. "
He Mulong let out a deep smile and said, "When my disciple brings him here, let's see if you'll admit it or not.
Mu Bingxin said angrily, "Fine, let's see what tricks you can come up with."
The two waited for the time it took to eat a meal, and suddenly, a streak of light came from the south.
Mu Bingxin looked up and saw that the person who came was He Mulong's disciple, Liu Sheng. It was just that he was carrying a person under his armpit. Upon closer inspection, it was Tong Ao. She was startled at first, but then she sneered.
When Liu Sheng arrived in front of the two, he bowed to He Mulong and said, "Master, the person has been caught."
He Mulong nodded and said in a deep voice, "Did you ask about this person's background?"
Liu Sheng said loudly, "Master, disciple has asked. This person's cultivation technique was originally passed down by the six divine sects. Disciple was afraid of wrongly accusing a good person, so I asked some other people. They all said that this person's whereabouts are suspicious and he is familiar with the secrets of various sects. He is extremely suspicious."
He Mulong's eyes focused on Tong Ao and said, "Do you have anything to say?"
Tong Ao couldn't help but shiver. He thought to himself, If I don't admit it, I'm afraid that this person will immediately kill me … He showed a bitter smile to Mu Bingxin and nodded, saying, "What Priest Liu said is true.
He Mulong looked at Mu Bingxin and snorted, "That day, my disciple already saw that this person is from the demonic sect. It's laughable that you, Elder Mu, still came forward to stop him. I don't know the reason."
Mu Bingxin coldly said, "He Mulong, this person's name is Tong Ao. He has indeed practiced some Devil Sect's secret techniques, but he has never harmed anyone's life. If you think I'm related to the Devil Sect, then so be it. Let's see if you have the ability."
He Mulong raised his voice and said, "Enlightened Master Mu, I also don't believe that you, Elder Mu, would do such a thing. However, with the demonic tribulation approaching, we can't be careless. This matter must be clarified. Elder Mu, please follow me back to Taihao School. If Elder Mu and Elder Mi are really innocent, I will personally go to Pengyuan Faction to ask for forgiveness."
Mu Bingxin laughed angrily, "He Mulong, if you want to make a move, why do you need to find so many excuses? You speak righteously as if the reason is all on your side. No wonder people say that you are thick-skinned and black-hearted. You are truly shameless! Make your move, I, Mu Bingxin, am not afraid of you at all! "
He Mulong, however, turned a deaf ear to her. He really just wanted an excuse to make a move.
He had already asked around and found out that Dan Huizhen was also on this big ship. Once he dealt with this Elder Pengyuan Faction and brought Mi Zi back to the sect, his disciple and Dan Huizhen would be together. At that time, even if the sect master of Pengyuan Faction disobeyed, it would be impossible.
Mu Bingxin said that he was black-hearted, and it was not false at all. When he did things, he only sought to achieve his goal. Those ordinary principles and rules could not restrain him.
He Mulong let out a shout and shook his body. A stream of green mist that looked like a water cloud rose from the top of his head. Light appeared in the mist and smoke appeared in the light. Soon after, three lumps of Strong Clouds surged in the sky. Streaks of smoke hung down like willow branches, enshrouding and faintly discernible.
Mu Bingxin's expression froze. She took a step back and cried out in surprise, "Second layer of Yuanying?"
She immediately understood why He Mulong was confident in taking her down. It turned out that he had already reached the second layer of Yuanying.
When cultivators of similar cultivation levels fought, apart from a battle of life and death, it was very difficult to determine the victor, let alone capture the other party.
Naturally, those with treasures were not an exception. However, even if He Mulong had any treasures on him, Mu Bingxin, as the sect's Grand Elder, Elder Mi, also had two treasures that she could take out, so she was not afraid at all.
But now that she saw He Mulong's cultivation level, she did not dare to be careless.
She formed a hand seal and a six-colored cloud floated above her head. Within the cloud, a fierce aura of weapons appeared. Although she was a woman, her cultivation technique was fierce and overbearing.
He Mulong smiled proudly and said, "Elder Mi, take a look at what this is."
The three clouds shuddered before a round seed suddenly emerged from the cloud at the center. The seed was plump and resembled a green jade pearl, but there was a hint of purple aura swirling within it. Light was flashing from within the seed, and the sound of thunderclaps could be heard indistinctly.
Mu Bingxin took a few glances at it. Even though she was standing in the same place, she felt her whole body go numb as if a lightning python was coiling around her.
She seemed to have thought of something and suddenly, a look of fear appeared on her face. She blurted out, "This, could this be the 'Purple Jade Sun Seed'? You, you even managed to refine this? "
He Mulong laughed loudly and said, "Since my grandmaster, it has come to Daoren's generation. Just Now, I have managed to refine this seed. I was planning to send it to the Sword Competition of the Sixteen Sects with my Martial Nephew, but if Elder Mi isn't willing to come with me, I'll have to use it on you first."
Mu Bingxin's heart sank. Others might not know how powerful this seed was, but she did.
This' Purple Jade Sun Seed 'was a precious seed produced by the divine tree that guarded the Taihao School. It was said that if one could refine eighty-one seeds and then refine them with nine Daoist Paradises, they would be able to form a formation that could shock the heavens and the earth and make the gods weep.
However, this tree only bore one fruit every thousand years, and one fruit only bore three seeds. In the four thousand years since the establishment of the Taihao School, they had only obtained twelve seeds. Not to mention those that were lost or stolen, it was unknown how long it would take to gather all of them.
But even so, with just one seed here, it wasn't something that she could defend against.
Although this treasure couldn't be considered a True Artifact, it could easily kill a Yuanying cultivator with one strike.
Mu Bingxin originally thought that if she could settle the matter with the Pengyuan Sect herself, there would be no need to ask Zhang Yan for help. Otherwise, she would owe him a favor for nothing. But now, it seemed that she had no choice but to ask for help, so she said, "Is Fellow Daoist Zhang here? This isn't something that I can deal with. "
