Old Ma, who had a good night's sleep last night, was in good spirits today, and even his mood was better. Although his situation was not particularly good during this period of time, there were still some annoying things. For example, the way to leave the Immortal City, which was a troublesome place, was inexplicably taken away by Chen He.
But now that he thought about it, things were actually not too bad. Although the sea of blood in the sky above looked very scary, the legendary or imagined doomsday had not yet appeared. No one knew what the future would be like. Maybe it would be fine? And Chen He, who was proud of his success a few days ago, had his family destroyed overnight. This also made Old Ma secretly feel a little lucky. Perhaps this matter was not necessarily related to leaving the Immortal City, but who could say for sure whether it was a blessing or a misfortune?
It was better to be content with what he had and do what he had to do now. Besides, Lu Chen's position in Supreme Tianlan's faction was obviously rising day by day. It seemed that his future was not too bad.
With this self-comfort, Old Ma felt that life had suddenly become better, and his mood was also cheerful. Many years ago, when he and Lu Chen were still living in seclusion in the remote mountain village of Qingshuitang Village, he was already very familiar with this set of spiritual victory method.
Thus, when he walked briskly up Celestial Dragon Mountain and found Lu Chen outside the main hall of the Floating Clouds Department, Lu Chen stared at his cheerful and spirited appearance for a long time. Then, he asked suspiciously, "Why are you so happy? Could it be that you have encountered some great news?"
Old Ma chuckled and said, "What are you talking about? I'm in a good mood today, so can't I be happy?"
Lu Chen raised his head to look at the gloomy and oppressive sky, and then turned to look at the austere and solemn Floating Clouds Bureau, as well as those people who always had solemn and grave expressions on their faces. He then said to Old Ma honestly, "Everyone on this mountain has a bitter expression on their faces. As long as you are the only one who is relaxed and happy, then everyone will find you an eyesore."
"Hmm?" Old Ma was taken aback. He quickly looked around and found that it was just as Lu Chen had said. After a moment of shock, he hurriedly pulled him aside and asked in a low voice, "Did something happen again?"
"Actually, it's nothing big." Lu Chen said, "It's just that the damn baldy was in a bad mood today. He ran out and quarreled with someone, which caused quite a commotion. He just came back."
Old Ma's eyes widened. After a moment, he gasped.
What was Perfected Lord Tian Lan's status? Even among Zhenxianmeng, who was almost invincible in the world of cultivation, he was now the number one in name and in reality. The number one person in Zhenxianmeng was, of course, the number one person in the entire Cultivation World. Such a big shot went out to quarrel with someone today? And it caused quite a commotion?
Old Ma was not stupid. Although Lu Chen's words did not make it clear, he could figure out that there were only a few people on Mount Tianlong who were qualified to quarrel with Perfected Lord Tian Lan …
As for other people, even if they were Yuanying Zhenren, in front of an angry Perfected Lord of Huashen Realm, they were more likely to be sent flying with a slap, rather than quarreling with words without violence.
Old Ma's original joy suddenly dissipated, but he was not too depressed. After all, it seemed that a fight between immortals would not involve a small figure like him. Instead, he was a little more curious. He pulled Lu Chen and asked, "Which Perfected Lord is it?" He paused, thought for a moment, and said, "I guess it's most likely Perfected Lord Tiehu?"
Perfected Lord Tiehu was old-fashioned and upright. In Zhenxianmeng, Perfected Lord Tian Lan was not very pleasing to the eye. Everyone knew that there were conflicts between Tianhun Hall and Fuyunji from time to time. Therefore, Old Ma's first reaction was that these two old enemies were quarreling again for some reason, but he did not expect the reaction to be so big this time.
Unexpectedly, Lu Chen shook his head and said, "It's not Perfected Lord Tiehu."
Old Ma was stunned and said in surprise, "What, it's not that person? It shouldn't be … Could it be Perfected Lord Guangbo from Dazaiyuan? Is he jealous of Fuyunji's recent profits? It's unlikely for the others. Perfected Lord Golden Dragon? He seems … "
Lu Chen interrupted him and said, "Stop guessing. It's Perfected Lord Gu Yue from Starry Hall."
"Perfected Lord Gu Yue?" Old Ma was really shocked this time. There was even a look of disbelief on his face. He said, "It shouldn't be. Isn't Starry Hall on good terms with us recently? Not to mention the other things, Starry Hall handled and guarded the Devil Cult's catacombs at the foot of the mountain together with us. Why are the two of them quarreling? "
Lu Chen shrugged and said, "Who knows? I heard that Perfected Lord Gu Yue punished a few of his trusted disciples. One of them was accused of being too close to Fuyunji. When the news came out, the damn baldy flew into a rage. He ran to Perfected Lord Gu Yue and quarreled. He even said that your Starry Hall is not clean either. You're always stuffing nails and shadows into Fuyunji. Don't think that we don't know. "
"Uh …" Old Ma was speechless for a moment. Although what Lu Chen said sounded unbelievable, he really didn't dare to deny it. Because he knew in his heart that these words were very likely to be true.
However, there seemed to be something strange about this matter …
…
"Do you feel that there's something wrong with this matter?" Lu Chen pulled Old Ma and walked around the Floating Clouds Department's main hall towards the Kunlun Palace at the back. At the same time, he asked Old Ma in a low voice.
Old Ma nodded very honestly. After a moment of silence, he said hesitantly, "Logically speaking, the two of them are of such high status. How could they … uh, I mean, they shouldn't quarrel so easily."
Lu Chen said faintly, "Because I just talked to the damn baldy last night. He said that our Fuyunji may have been stuffed with many spies. Maybe there are people who betrayed us and took the initiative to collude with those outsiders. So, the damn baldy seemed to be very angry early in the morning. When he heard the news from Starry Hall, he angrily went over and quarreled with them. "
Old Ma was a little stunned and said, "That's it?"
Lu Chen nodded and said, "That's it." But then he smiled and said thoughtfully, "But I always feel that he seemed to be doing it for someone to see. What do you think?"
Old Ma was silent. These words, including some deeper speculations, could be said by Lu Chen at will, but he had some taboos. He looked at Lu Chen from the corner of his eyes. He saw that Lu Chen's face was solemn. He seemed to be thinking about something, but his eyes gradually brightened.
"Probably, he is finally going to start …"
