Restoring Dignity
Mu Yun understood that Lei Dou was dead. This matter had blown up!
Lei Dou might have just wanted to avenge his son, Lei Huayun. It was just a small fight.
But now, Lei Dou was dead. This was a huge loss for the Blood Fiend Divine Sect. They had lost all their dignity.
There were only two possibilities now.
The first was that the 33 Heavenly Sword Sects and the Blood Fiend Divine Sect would go to war immediately. Moreover, it would involve the Sword Domain and Blood Domain, and even the entire Immortal Realm.
The second was that the Blood Fiend Divine Sect would endure.
They would endure not to go to war. After careful planning, they would have a bloody battle with the 33 Heavenly Sword Sects in the future.
But then again, no matter what kind of battle it was, there would definitely be a fight between the two.
This was not something he could control now.
However, he had not expected that killing Lei Huayun would cause such a storm.
After returning to the sect, Mu Yun immediately went to the 34 Peaks and knocked on the door of Lin Wenxuan's seclusion.
"Come in!"
Lin Wenxuan's slightly hoarse voice sounded.
Mu Yun stepped into the secret chamber and was stunned to see Lin Wenxuan in front of her.
It had only been a dozen years, but Lin Wenxuan's skin and sunken eyes were still very scary.
However, it was obvious that his skin was falling off and new skin was growing.
Moreover, the power in his body seemed to be gradually coming alive.
His long hair was no longer like withered grass, but like weeds that had just withered not long ago. It was faintly yellow.
Mu Yun knew that Lin Wenxuan had not become worse, but was recovering quickly.
"Master!"
Mu Yun cupped her hands and said, "Congratulations, Master. Your recovery is getting better!"
"Kid, don't play dumb here. I already said that unless the sect is destroyed, or the 34 Peaks are in big trouble, or someone is bullying you, don't call me. What's the matter?"
Mu Yun cupped her hands again and said, "Master, something big happened!"
"I've received news that the Blood Fiend Divine Sect from the Blood Domain and the Levitation Heavenly Palace from the Hua Tian Domain are going to join forces to deal with the 33 Heavenly Sword Sect!"
Upon hearing these words, a trace of surprise finally appeared on Lin Wenxuan's calm face.
"Are you sure?"
"Disciple guarantees it with his life!"
Mu Yun said resolutely.
Since Xie Qing knew about this, those people from the Feather Transformation Heavenly Palace were sure that he couldn't escape. That was why they talked about this in front of Xie Qing.
This matter could be said to be set in stone.
However, he had no idea when the two domains would make their moves!
"Good, very good!"
Xie Qing suddenly burst out laughing.
Okay? Very good?
Mu Yun was a little confused.
He knew that Lin Wenxuan deeply hated some people from the Thirty-three Heavens Sword Gate. However, it was only some people.
Could it be that this fellow wanted to destroy the 33 Heavenly Sword Sects?
Then his identity as Tian Jianzi would be gone!
"Do you know when we're going to make a move?" Lin Wenxuan seemed a little impatient.
"I don't know!"
"That's a pity!" Lin Wenxuan said again, "The Xue Domain and the Transformation Heavenly Domain have always been ambitious. When the 33 Heavenly Sword Sects wanted to destroy the Exterminating Sword Sect, these two domains already showed signs of it!"
"Now, the fox's tail is finally showing."
"Master …"
"What? Don't you understand? "
Lin Wenxuan said again, "Can the two domains join forces and destroy the 33 Heavenly Sword Sect?"
"Should … should be …"
"The difference is too big!"
Lin Wenxuan sneered, "It's impossible for the Blood Fiend Sect and the Feather Transformation Heavenly Palace to destroy the 33 Heavenly Sword Sect!"
"I can tell you with certainty that the final result will be a lose-lose situation. Neither side will gain any advantage!"
"During this process, the 33 Heavenly Sword Sect needs experts to appear. Now that my strength is recovering, if a war breaks out, Yun Lang and the Third Tian Jianzi won't be able to surpass me. What I need now is to re-establish my authority in the 33 Heavenly Sword Sect and tell those old fogeys that I'm the Tian Jianzi of the 33 Heavenly Sword Sect and the one with the most hope to become the Sect Master."
Lin Wenxuan became more and more excited as he spoke.
"Now, if a war breaks out, I can re-establish my authority. This reason alone is enough!"
At this moment, Mu Yun also understood what was going on.
Now, the 33 Heavenly Sword Sect was like a dynasty in the mortal world.
Under the dynasty, there were three princes vying for the throne.
Now that two powerful countries were invading, the three princes would get extra points if they performed better.
Lin Wenxuan's thoughts were very thorough. In the early years of the 33 Heavenly Sword Sect, he had already established his authority. Now, he was just re-establishing his authority.
Therefore, this war had come at the right time. It had come at the right time!
Lin Wenxuan couldn't wait to come earlier.
"Alright, from today onwards, I will go into seclusion. Unless a war breaks out, don't disturb me for anything else. I will definitely participate in this war!"
Lin Wenxuan couldn't wait to chase Mu Yun out.
Walking outside the main hall, Mu Yun began to think.
After all, he and Lin Wenxuan were enemies, but also friends.
In the face of the annihilation of the Indestructible Sword Sect ten thousand years ago, he had to kill Lin Wenxuan.
Now, the two of them had infinite hatred for the 33 Heavenly Sword Sect and could be considered friends.
As for the relationship between master and disciple …
Lin Wenxuan and Master Xu Lin were also master and disciple. However, the two of them were respectful and modest on the surface, but in private, they each had their own needs.
Lin Wenxuan needed Xu Lin to be his backer now.
As for Xu Lin, Mu Yun didn't know what this old fogey wanted from Lin Wenxuan.
However, this kind of relationship between master and disciple was completely for the sake of benefits.
Wasn't it the same for Lin Wenxuan when he saw him?
Helping each other and using each other!
These words were more suitable for his relationship with Lin Wenxuan now.
However, this wasn't important.
At least in the eyes of outsiders, he and Lin Wenxuan were closely related master and disciple. No one dared to deal with him in the 33 Heavenly Sword Sect.
Mu Yun staggered and walked around the top of the mountain.
A figure stood in front of him, blocking his way.
"Miss Bi!"
Seeing Bao Qingyu, Mu Yun cupped his hands.
Bao Qingyu gave him a … strange feeling.
He couldn't tell whether the Biluo Huangquan School was an enemy or a friend now.
Mu Yun realized that at this point, except for his wives, his disciples, and those people he subdued with the Life and Death Seal, he couldn't trust anyone else.
"Young Master Mu!"
Bao Qingyu looked at Mu Yun and nodded.
"Waiting for me?"
"Yes!"
Bao Qingyu nodded and said, "It's good that you came back safely. I have something to tell you!"
"What is it?"
"The matter of the 33 Heavenly Sword Sect needs to be planned slowly. Don't be anxious. I may have some matters to attend to recently. The time … is not fixed!"
"You're leaving the 33 Heavenly Sword Sect?"
Mu Yun was puzzled.
"It's just a possibility. I'm not sure yet!"
Bao Qingyu nodded and said, "Moreover, my father will also leave. Biluo Huangquan School, the Sect Master and the Great Hell King are not around. If you have any matters, look for Jian Yiming. He will help you pass the message. If I really leave and anything happens, you can look for Jian Yiming and tell him that the Second and Third Hell Kings are fully in charge of the sect!"
Mu Yun was a little confused.
Bao Qingyu was leaving. If he wasn't going back to Biluo Huangquan School, where was he going?
"I don't know who the Second and Third Hell Kings of Biluo Huangquan School are. Moreover, why would they help me?"
"They will definitely help you!" Bao Qingyu suddenly said unquestionably.
"Uh …"
Seeing Bao Qingyu's serious expression, Mu Yun did not say anything else.
"Of course, I said that I might leave. Things might not have reached that stage. However, if I really leave, you must know to protect yourself. Do you understand?"
"This … I … know!"
Looking at Bao Qingyu's strange expression, Mu Yun was even more puzzled.
Bao Qingyu was really strange today.
Seeing that Mu Yun seemed to be frightened by him, Bao Qingyu said calmly again, "You're only in the Golden Immortal Realm now. If you want to survive in the Immortal World, you have to navigate the various major forces with ease. Being a Golden Immortal is far from enough. The most important thing now is to advance to the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal Realm. It's better to take it one step at a time!"
"Okay!"
"Also, if I leave, you must …"
"Must what?"
"Nothing!"
Bao Qingyu looked at Mu Yun but did not say anything in the end.
Since Bao Qingyu did not say anything, Mu Yun did not ask any further.
The two of them bade farewell. Bao Qingyu looked at Mu Yun's back and said slowly, "You must … protect yourself well. Nothing must happen to you because you're not only carrying the hope of this place, but also …"
In the end, Bao Qingyu did not say it out loud.
Mu Yun only felt very confused now.
Her mind was in a mess.
Everything was very complicated.
Back in the room, Mu Yun saw Wang Xinya playing the zither. She sat down quietly and listened to her lover's zither music. Gradually, she calmed down.
"Brother Yun, what's wrong?"
Wang Xinya saw that Mu Yun's expression was not right. She stood in front of Mu Yun and asked with concern.
"Xin 'er …"
Mu Yun hugged Wang Xinya's waist and buried his head in her chest.
Perhaps only at this moment would he be able to relax all the distraught thoughts in his heart.
"I'm fine. I just suddenly felt very sad … a sadness that came from the depths of my soul …"
Mu Yun said in a low voice, "I've been having a dream, a terrifying dream. In the dream, I was being hunted down until I was the only one left. However, I couldn't find a way out. These dreams have been lingering in my mind ever since I reached the Perfected Immortal Realm and condensed my True Soul!"
"It's okay!"
Wang Xinya comforted her. "You're just too tired!"
"Yes, I'm too tired. I want to rest!"
"Rest. I'll play a song for you!"
Wang Xinya smiled slightly. She cupped Mu Yun's cheek and kissed her forehead lightly. Then, she turned around and sat in front of the zither, playing it with both hands.
The faint sound of the zither sounded. Mu Yun's lips curled into a smile. However, that smile gradually disappeared, and her eyes slowly closed.
Once again, Mu Yun was plunged into the boundless darkness.
"Mu Yun, you deserve to die. You have to die!"
"Mu Yun, you can't escape. Everyone wants you dead!"
"Die. You're no longer the so-called genius you used to be!"
