A few figures came to the side of the crowd. The man in the lead was wearing a navy blue inner robe and a blue feather robe. He gave off a gloomy feeling from head to toe.
Although he had a smile on his face, that smile …
Was very fake!
It was so fake that one could see through it at a glance.
However, this person seemed to be unaware of it. That smile was still on his face.
"Oh, I am Cang Beixuan, a disciple of the Azure Dragon Pavilion!"
"Azure Dragon Pavilion!"
Hearing this, Chu He was shocked.
"Brother Mu, Azure Dragon Pavilion is also a great Azure Dragon Pavilion. It is one of the three great Azure Dragon Pavilion and is only second to the True Martial Academy, Phantom Sect, and Mysterious Pavilion. It is ranked fourth among the Zhan Clan's subordinate forces!"
"Moreover, it is said that Azure Dragon Pavilion has already applied to the Zhan Clan to become one of the four great Azure Dragon Pavilion's subordinate forces!"
Chu He whispered in Mu Yun's ear.
Azure Dragon Pavilion!
This name sounded very domineering.
As a Azure Dragon Pavilion's subordinate force, it was only second to the True Martial Academy and the other three great Azure Dragon Pavilion.
It seemed that Azure Dragon Pavilion had a strong foundation.
"We don't seem to know each other?"
"That is true!"
Cang Beixuan smiled. "But I know you, and you don't know me. Don't you know me now?"
Cang Beixuan smiled as he spoke, but that smile was too fake.
Anyone who was not blind could see it.
"What's the matter?"
"We have to stay in the castle for half a year. How can we survive in the open?"
Cang Beixuan smiled. "I have been in the castle for quite some time, and there are a few empty rooms. If Brother Mu doesn't mind, you can stay at my place!"
"It is also to prevent people with ulterior motives from harming Brother Mu!"
Cang Beixuan's tone was honest, but his smile was too awkward.
"Sure!"
Mu Yun nodded. "Since Brother Cang is so sincere, I will accept your invitation!"
Mu Yun's sudden agreement made Cang Beixuan's prepared speech come to a halt.
He did not expect Mu Yun to be so frank.
Just now, he saw with his own eyes how Mu Yun treated Huan Jue. She was not only cold but also arrogant.
"Alright, Brother Mu, please follow me!"
Cang Beixuan waved his hand and led Mu Yun forward.
Seeing Mu Yun's sudden change, Chu He and the others were also stunned.
The two of them walked side by side. Cang Beixuan carefully sized up Mu Yun, but Mu Yun didn't seem to be willing to say much and didn't speak at all.
In the end, Cang Beixuan couldn't help but ask, "Brother Mu, aren't you curious why I invited you to come with me?"
"Curious!"
"Then why didn't you ask me?"
Looking at Cang Beixuan, Mu Yun said with a smile, "Didn't you say that you couldn't hold it in anymore?"
"Uh … Alright!"
Cang Beixuan said, "I don't like Tian Zhong Quan and Huan Jue. It's not just Tian Zhong Quan, I don't like any of the Divination Pavilion's seven disciples!"
"The Seven Sons of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets?"
"Yeah!"
Cang Beixuan said seriously, "Brother Mu, don't you know? There are a total of seven young masters in the Divination Pavilion, and all of them are amazing talents. Tian Zhong Quan is the youngest one! "
"It's not just the Divination Pavilion. I don't like Huan Chen from the Phantom Sect either. I dislike Huan Yu even more. Fortunately, the two of them are dead. There's also Huan Jue. I don't know what kind of fortuitous encounter he had in the Demon Fall Mountain, but he actually jumped to the Second Soul Divine Emperor Realm."
Cang Beixuan said unhappily, "The disciples of these two sects are all arrogant as if they're the rulers of the ancient clans!"
"What I hate the most is …"
"Then who do you like?" Mu Yun was speechless. "It seems like there's no one you don't hate!"
"I like you!"
Cang Beixuan looked at Mu Yun and said with a smile, "Brother Mu's strength is strange and tyrannical. You don't belong to any sect, but you're fearless and don't rely on others. I like that about you."
Hearing this, Mu Yun rolled her eyes.
This guy was very strange.
He looked serious, but his smile was fake, and his words were not conventional. It was impossible to figure out his character.
"We're here!"
Cang Beixuan said with a smile as he looked ahead.
In front of everyone was a tall tower in the ancient castle.
This tall tower was a hundred feet tall and had layers upon layers. The construction was very simple and unadorned.
Moreover, with the accumulation of history, it did not show any signs of decline.
In fact, in the entire ancient castle, except for the tall tower in the south and the tall tower in the north, this tower was relatively taller.
"The south is where Huan Jue and a group of people live. The north is where Tian Zhong and a group of people live!"
Cang Beixuan snorted.
Hearing this, Mu Yun understood why this guy disliked the two of them so much.
"Let's go, Brother Mu!"
Cang Beixuan brought Mu Yun to the top of the tall tower.
Standing at the top of the tall tower and looking around, they had a panoramic view of the entire ancient castle.
The ancient castle was not big and could accommodate more than 20,000 people. It looked a little crowded.
Mu Yun could see that some disciples had no choice but to live under some dilapidated walls to shelter themselves from the wind and rain.
"Do you see it?"
Cang Beixuan said enthusiastically.
"See what?"
"The two towers in the north and south and the tower in the middle that I live in!"
Cang Beixuan said excitedly, "Do you see the tripartite balance of power? From this, it can be seen that my Azure Dragon Pavilion's foundation and strength are not inferior to the Divination Pavilion and Phantom Sect at all. However, my Azure Dragon Pavilion's foundation is a little shallow. We only have ten thousand years of history, unlike the Divination Pavilion and Phantom Sect's deep foundation! "
"But here, you see, I, Cang Beixuan, can occupy a tower for myself. Although the towers that they live in are better than mine, this also shows that the Blue Dragon Pavilion is the most powerful Heavenly Origin Force other than the Sky Secret Pavilion and the Phantom Sect!"
Listening to Cang Beixuan's chatter, Mu Yun smiled bitterly in her heart.
This guy is really strange.
"Brother Mu, look again!"
Cang Beixuan said again, "The entrances of the two towers, including the top, are all guarded by One Soul Divine Emperor Realm martial artists!"
Following Cang Beixuan's words, Mu Yun looked at the towers and found that it was true.
Above and below the two towers, there were faint waves of Divine Emperor Realm aura.
"Tian Zhongshu and Huan Jue have occupied the two towers and are thinking of ways to activate the arrays in the towers!"
Cang Beixuan said enviously, "It is said that when the array is activated, it leads to the underground. Deep underground, there is a secret treasure. It is said that there is something sealed under the ancient castle, but we don't know what it is!"
"But it is said that an expert of the Zhan Clan found it by chance and sealed it here. As for what it is, I don't know either."
"And it is said that the True Martial Token is the key to sealing that thing."
"Oh?"
Mu Yun did not understand.
Since the True Martial Token was the key to sealing that thing, why was the True Martial Academy using the True Martial Token as the reward for this assessment?
"Mu Yun, are you wondering why the True Martial Academy used the True Martial Token as the reward for this assessment?"
Cang Beixuan said with a smile, "That is because … It is said that the Zhan Clan sent people to strengthen the seal. That thing suddenly became very lively these few years, so the True Martial Token is useless. It is used as the reward for this assessment!"
"Moreover, the True Martial Token is still a distance away from that thing. How powerful is the Zhan Clan? They are not worried that we will activate the seal. After all, we are all Divine Kings and low-level Divine Emperors! "
Hearing Cang Beixuan's explanation, Mu Yun gradually understood.
Then, here came the question!
Mu Yun looked at Cang Beixuan carefully.
Even the higher-ups of the three major Divine Origin forces would not be able to know about this.
How did Cang Beixuan know about this?
Seeing Mu Yun's suspicious look, Cang Beixuan coughed.
"My father told me about this. My father also heard about it from some people in the Zhan Clan …"
"Oh …"
Mu Yun looked at Cang Beixuan with a mysterious gaze.
This guy looked very complicated and spoke as if he did not use his brain. However, thinking about it carefully, this person did not seem to be that simple.
In the next few days, Mu Yun and the others stayed in the tower and did not come out.
On this day, Chu He returned from outside.
"Brother Mu!"
"How is it?"
"I found out about it!"
Chu He said respectfully, "This Cang Beixuan is the young master of the Azure Dragon Pavilion, and he is the only young master. People call him … the Smiling Tiger. This person smiles no matter who he sees. It's fake."
"This guy is very strange. Although people call him the Smiling Tiger, I have never heard of him causing trouble in the Demon Slaughter Mountain."
"Oh, by the way, the two towers in the north and south are indeed connected to the underground. There seems to be something underground. Tian Zhong and Huan Jue, one in the north and one in the south, are both trying to break the array as soon as possible!"
"The True Martial Token might really be inside, but the two of them have not found a way."
"Now, in the entire ancient castle, Tian Zhong, Huan Jue, and Cang Beixuan are on one side."
"The other side is an alliance formed by a few rogue cultivators."
"The forces formed by the four sides are all on one side, and they don't deal with each other."
Mu Yun nodded when she heard this.
It seemed that there would be some division of forces in places with people.
To be precise, there would be a situation where there were benefits.
"Did the Heavenly Central Command and Huan Jue open the secret chamber that leads underground?"
"No!"
Chu He shook his head and said, "This time, the four sides are very careful and sent people to investigate. Tian Zhong and Huan Jue seem to have not found a way, and they are searching hard!"
It made sense. If the two sides found a way, the other two sides would not be able to sit still.
"In that case, let's wait and watch the show!"
Mu Yun looked out of the window at the bustling crowd. Perhaps many people were waiting.
This wait lasted for a full three months.
During these three months, Mu Yun had been cultivating in her room.
She swallowed a few Tri-Suns Clear Pill and Bodhi Seed Origin Pill. However, Mu Yun only nourished her two souls slowly and was anxious to continue opening her Life Soul.
During this period, Cang Beixuan came to chat with Mu Yun every two days and told her about his cultivation experience, which made Mu Yun feel strange.
On this day, Mu Yun sat in her room and cultivated as usual.
After exhaling slowly, Mu Yun slowly opened her eyes.
"I have finally eliminated the hidden dangers of the Earth and Heaven Souls. Now, I can try opening the third soul — the Life Soul!"
