Mo Yunzheng smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Master Peacock's name is Master Ling, and he lives in the Jinxiu Manor of Chui Ping Mountain not far to the west. Because he is a peacock who cultivated, he is also called Master Peacock. There are four great demon kings in the world, the East Sea Mermaid Tear, the West Shu Jinping, the Southern Divine Tree, and the North Lands Mad Dragon. Master Peacock is the West Shu Jinping, and his cultivation base is unparalleled. There are only a few people in the world who can be on par with him. As for me, I am just a rogue cultivator who only knows a few mediocre spells.
How can I be compared to Master Peacock? "Ying Feiyang may have only known Mo Yunzheng for half a day, but they have been through life and death together, and were saved by him many times. His unfathomable cultivation base and carefree style had already made Ying Feiyang admire him like a god. Now that he saw Mo Yunzheng belittling himself, he could not help but feel indignant for him," Senior Mo, don't belittle yourself too much. In my heart, Senior Mo's magnanimity is many times better than that Master Ling who kidnapped someone else's daughter. "
Mo Yunzheng laughed and said, "I am indebted to Young Friend Ying's appreciation. If Master Peacock comes, I will protect you even at the cost of my life." He then said seriously, "However, the danger of this trip is not only because of Master Peacock. I am afraid that someone is using Master Ling's name to plot against you. If you are not careful, your life will be in danger. Since you want to save people, we have to set the rules. From now on, all of you have to listen to my orders and do not act on your own. What do you think?"
The four of them looked at each other and did not have any objections. They said in unison, "We are willing to listen to Senior's arrangements!"
Mo Yunzong stroked his beard and smiled, feeling very pleased with himself. Suddenly, his expression changed for no reason, and he vomited a mouthful of blood. It seemed like the poison had not been cleared.
The four of them were greatly shocked. Xie Lingyan even took out an antidote pill and tried to feed it to him. However, Mo Yunzhui stopped her with a hand and said, "It's useless. This is an old ailment. It's probably triggered by the poison."
"Then I'll bring you to seek treatment. Senior's health is more important, and we can't delay it," Fu Qingming said anxiously.
Mo Yunzheng waved his hand and said, "Alright, don't worry about me. Didn't I say to listen to my orders? That's settled then. My young friend Ying, you're the most familiar with Chengdu City. I have a junior in the city who specializes in treating my old ailment. I'll write down an address and write a letter. You can take the letter and ask him for medicine. As for the three of you, don't just stand there and do nothing.

"The person that Senior Mo mentioned is here." Ying Feiyang held the address written by Mo Yunzheng and muttered to himself. The house in front of him was only a stone's throw away from the Yang Family. It was broad daylight, but the door was closed and there was no one around. Ying Feiyang knocked on the door for a while before a young man opened the door. However, he did not say a word and just stared at him. Ying Feiyang did not care. He handed the letter in his hand and said, "Sorry to disturb you. I'm Ying Feiyang. I'm here to deliver a letter on behalf of Senior Mo Yunzheng. Senior Mo Yunzheng has been poisoned and his old illness has relapsed. He specially asked me to find medicine for him …"
The man took the letter and looked away from Ying Feiyang. He opened the letter and read it, but his expression did not change. After reading it, he stuffed the letter into his pocket and turned his body to signal Ying Feiyang to enter. When he closed the door again, there was a faint flash in his eyes.

When they returned to the Taoist temple, the ground had been cleaned, but Fu Qingming and Zhang Yizhi did not look good. Xie Lingyan's face was even paler. Ying Feiyang laughed in his heart. Helping Mo Yunzheng to get medicine had saved him a hard job. Mo Yunzheng was sitting cross-legged in the bedroom at the moment. When he saw Ying Feiyang coming, he smiled slightly and motioned for him to enter. Ying Feiyang handed over a black medicine box and took out a letter and handed it over. "That brother has given you the medicine you need and also sent a letter. Please have a look, Senior Mo."
Mo Yunzheng nodded and said, "Okay, put it on the table. When I finish one more cycle, I'll come back to take the medicine. You can leave first. Don't disturb me. "
Ying Feiyang did as he was told and closed the door. He looked at the three disciples of Ling Xiao Sword Principle who looked unhappy and joked, "What's the matter? Why do you look so sad? You're disciples of Ling Xiao Sword Principle. Aren't you afraid of killing demons? Are you afraid of collecting corpses?"
Fu Qingming smiled bitterly. "Junior Brother Ying, don't tease me. Junior Brother Zhang and I are still fine. Junior Sister Xie has secretly vomited three times in her first time killing demons."
However, Xie Lingyan shouted, "Fu Qingming, what nonsense are you talking about? Which eye of yours saw me vomit? I've killed countless demons. How can I be as useless as you? Ying Feiyang, don't be too proud. You're lazy and don't work, but let me clean your yard. How dare you tease me? "
"Didn't Fairy Xie slay countless demons? I think these demons were all killed by you. Since it was Fairy Xie who killed them, it's natural for her to clean them up. It's only right and proper. "
"Pfft, how dare you make sarcastic remarks. You're courting death!" The four of them teased each other for a while. Mo Yunzheng opened the door and walked out. He was in high spirits and did not look dispirited at all.
Zhang Yizhi asked, "Senior, have you recovered from your injuries?" Mo Yunzheng stretched his body and said, "I've recovered. Thank you for the trouble. It won't be a problem for me to deal with some demons tonight."
"That's good. Everyone must be hungry. I brought some food from the city. Let's eat first." Ying Feiyang suggested.
"Eat, eat, eat. You only know how to eat. You just ate until you were poisoned, and now you're hungry again? Are you a pig? "Xie Lingyan rolled her eyes at Ying Feiyang, but a growl came from her stomach. Xie Lingyan ate the least in the morning. After fighting with the demons for half a day, her body was exhausted. She vomited three times when she was cleaning up the corpses, and her stomach was empty. It was already past noon, so how could she not be hungry?
Seeing the smile in Ying Feiyang's eyes, Xie Lingyan blushed. She tried to cover it up, but it only made it more obvious. "What are you looking at? It's not me, it's Senior Brother Zhang's stomach that's growling." The silent and honest Zhang Yizhi chuckled and took the blame for her. Xie Lingyan stomped her foot and said, "Hurry up and eat. Can't you see that Senior Brother Zhang is hungry?"
The original table was kicked to pieces. Ying Feiyang moved a small table from the guest room and placed the food on it. Xie Lingyan first pretended to check for poison. After confirming that there was no poison, she waved her hand and said, "It's fine. Let's eat." Everyone was so hungry that they swept away the food like a whirlwind.
After the meal, Mo Yunzheng ordered, "You're all full. Go back to your rooms and rest. The battle in the morning has consumed a lot of energy, but tonight's battle will be more risky. Go and adjust your breathing and build up your strength. When the sun sets, we'll sneak into Phoenix Perching Valley under the cover of night."
Everyone obeyed and went back to their rooms. Ying Feiyang thought for a moment, then carried the food and wine left for Taoist Qing Ku into Qing Ku's room. “
"Master, you're awake, right? It's already noon. You should eat something first." Qing Ku had already woken up. He was sitting on the bed, leaning against the pillow, flipping through a Taoist book in boredom. He ignored Ying Feiyang.
Ying Feiyang put the food on the table, picked up the wine jar, and uncorked it. He said, "Master, you've finished your wine, right? This is the Green Bamboo Leaf from the Guest House. It's not any worse than Old Man Gu's. Do you want a change of taste? "
"Don't even think about it. I won't throw my life away with your Phoenix Perching Valley. You'd better forget about it." Qing Ku saw through Ying Feiyang's intentions. He threw the book away with a frown and flatly refused.
"Master, you're so powerful. They'll only be able to block a few of your swords. Let's save them together. In the future, they'll worship you like a deity. They'll serve you with good wine and meat every day."
"I'm used to living a simple life. I'll be satisfied if I can drink some local wine in the morning and evening. I can't get used to eating good meat."
Tempting him with benefits didn't work, so Ying Feiyang tried to move him with emotion. "Master, I'm your only disciple. What if I fail to save them tonight and get myself killed instead? It's a small matter if something happens to me, but it'll be a disgrace to the name of He Guqiong that deserves to be killed."
Hearing the name He Guqiong, Qing Ku's words were tinged with anger. "What does He Guqiong's name have to do with me? I'm not He Guqiong. If you think you're not capable enough, then stay put. Don't even think about going anywhere tonight! Don't throw your life away for nothing! "
Ying Feiyang slammed the wine jar on the table and said angrily, "Master, how can you be so heartless? Those are human lives. You're just going to watch them die at the hands of the demons and do nothing. If I can't use my sword to defend the Dao, then what's the point of practicing the sword?
Qing Ku also lifted his blanket and said coldly, "Heartless? It's not that I'm heartless, it's that you're useless! You want to save them, you want to be a hero, fine! Go save them yourself. Why drag me into risking my life with you? You're useless and can't save them. Even if there are innocent casualties today, it's because of your incompetence. What does it have to do with me? "
"Yes, I'm useless. Who asked me to be so unlucky? Master is so famous, but you're not willing to teach me anything. But I still have my life. Today, I'll throw my life away. Hurry up and eat. After this meal, no one will serve you tea or food anymore!" With that, Ying Feiyang frowned and slammed the door.
Looking at the closed door, Qing Ku sighed helplessly and gulped down the wine. Suddenly, he threw the empty wine bottle at the door. The moment the bottle exploded, a low cry came from outside the door. "It's no use pretending to be angry. You're staying outside and not leaving. Do you think I'll open the door to find you?"
