"Your name is Mu Shan? Who is Mu Xunlin to you? "Ning Cheng looked at the male cultivator in front of him and asked.
Mu Shan obviously couldn't see through Ning Cheng's cultivation. Now that Ning Cheng asked about Mu Xunlin, he quickly bowed and replied, "Replying to senior, Mu Xunlin is my grandfather."
"Then Mu Nan should be your father, right?" Ning Cheng could tell that Mu Shan looked like Mu Xunlin and could guess a few things.
"Yes, senior, why are you here?" Mu Shan showed some caution in his eyes. A person he had never seen before came to ask about his grandfather and father, which made him feel uneasy.
"Your grandfather gave me this token before he died and asked me to give it to Mu Nan. I haven't had time to come over because I've been busy. But this time, I happened to see your sect. Your father, Mu Nan, isn't here, so it's the same for you. "Ning Cheng finished and stuffed the sect master token into Mu Shan's hand.
Mu Shan heard Ning Cheng's words and took the token with trembling hands. His eyes immediately turned red. His father had told him that his grandfather would come back before he died. He had stayed here not only to guard the broken Formless Sect, but also to wait for his grandfather to return. But now, his grandfather hadn't returned, and only a sect master token came back.
Mu Shan grabbed the token with both hands and bowed to Ning Cheng. "Many thanks, senior, for bringing back my Formless Sect's token. Please tell me your name, benefactor. This junior will always remember senior's kindness."
For Mu Shan, he knew very well that he had no chance to repay Ning Cheng's kindness. This kindness could only be engraved in his heart.
Ning Cheng nodded, "It's just a small matter. You don't have to worry about it. I've only met your grandfather a few times. Your grandfather's wish is to strengthen the Formless Sect in the future. I hope you can work hard to cultivate and fulfill your grandfather's last wish. Now that I've delivered the token, I'm leaving. "
Ning Cheng came here purely to help. He had helped Mu Xunlin in the past. Now that he had brought Mu Xunlin's sect master token, it was just a matter of lifting a finger.
Seeing Ning Cheng about to leave, Mu Shan quickly said, "Senior, please wait. This junior has a few words to say to senior."
After that, Mu Shan turned to Cao Yun and said softly, "Little Yun, you go out first. I have a few words to say to this senior alone."
"En." Cao Yun answered obediently and turned to leave.
Ning Cheng, on the other hand, was a bit puzzled, although when Cao Yun came out of the door, he could see that this Cao Yun was a bit strange. However, according to Mu Shan's attitude towards Cao Yun, he shouldn't have asked her to go out.
"Senior, before junior's father left, junior's father had said that if one day grandfather really didn't return, and instead sent someone to bring back the Sect Head's Token, then I was to give away the Formless Sect's stone tablet, and then leave the Formless Sect. In addition to guarding the Formless Sect, I am also guarding the stele. "After Cao Yun left, Mu Shan spoke with a respectful tone.
Stone tablet? Ning Cheng felt a little puzzled.
"It's the stone tablet with the three words' Formless School 'carved on it. It's the one that's covered in moss outside the school. The three words' Formless Sect 'were added later. "Mu Shan quickly explained on seeing Ning Cheng's doubts.
Ning Cheng's Spiritual Consciousness immediately fell on the unremarkable stone tablet lying on the ground outside, this time he paid attention to it, and really found that the three words' Formless Academy 'were different. The two words' Formless' had a lot of momentum, and it even had a hint of a vague aura. However, the word 'Sect' was flat and didn't have even the slightest bit of momentum.
What shocked Ning Cheng even more was that after his Spiritual Consciousness penetrated into the stone tablet, he found a small area that he couldn't sweep through. Not only that, but he also felt a familiar aura.
This stone tablet definitely wasn't ordinary.
Ning Cheng didn't immediately take the stone tablet. He had already decided to help Mu Shan. Regardless of whether the stone tablet was ordinary or not, Mu Shan could follow his father's instructions and guard the Formless Sect's stone tablet. Ning Cheng also valued this kind of person.
"Mu Shan, I think you and that Cao Yun seem to have a good relationship. Why did you call Cao Yun out when you talked to me?" Ning Cheng asked in doubt.
Mu Shan quickly responded, "Senior, my father told me that the stone tablet cannot be leaked. It can only be given to the person who brings back the Formless Sect's Sect Head's Token. Moreover, when you give the stone tablet away, no third party should be around. Otherwise, it would only harm others and yourself. "
There was one more sentence that Mu Shan didn't say. His father once said that the cultivator who could return an unremarkable four-star sect's Sect Head's Token to the Formless Sect was qualified to own the stone tablet.
"Do you know the origin of the stone tablet?" Ning Cheng asked again.
Mu Shan nodded, "My great-grandfather obtained the stone tablet because the stone tablet had the two words' Formless' on it. My great-grandfather felt that the stone tablet was unusual, so he added the word 'Sect' behind the two words' Formless' and established the Formless Sect. After this stone tablet is sent away, the Formless Sect can be considered to have disappeared. "
So that was the case. Ning Cheng felt even more favourable towards Mu Shan. He also understood what Mu Nan meant. The Mu Clan hadn't been able to solve the mystery of the stone tablet for several generations. Mu Shan's aptitude was average and shouldn't have been able to solve it. Since this stone tablet was different, if it was placed in Mu Shan's hands, not only would it waste Mu Shan's time, it might even cause trouble for him. Therefore, Mu Nan simply asked his son Mu Shan to give the stone tablet away.
"I just saw that you seem to have two female confidantes …." Ning Cheng didn't ask about the stone tablet anymore but asked about the two women.
After Mu Shan heard Ning Cheng's words, his face suddenly turned red, and he spoke up with some embarrassment, "This junior's family matters have made senior laugh."
Ning Cheng showed a slight smile, "I'm not laughing. I just want to ask what you plan to do."
Mu Shan didn't know why this senior wanted to ask about these things, but since Ning Cheng asked, he had to say it. "Hong Yi and Little Yun are both people I like. It's just that Hong Yi isn't used to sharing joys and sorrows with me. I plan to take Little Yun away from here and become a rogue cultivator. "
"I heard Hong Yi say that the Rainbowfall Sword Sect is recruiting disciples. She's right. Why don't you go to the Rainbowfall Sword Sect?" Ning Cheng asked in doubt.
Mu Shan shook his head, "The Rainbowfall Sword Sect is very far from here, and we don't have the spirit stones to go to that place. Besides, even if we go there, the Rainbowfall Sword Sect wouldn't take a liking to us. I have this self-awareness. "
Ning Cheng, however, spoke up, "Mu Shan, if I were you, I would choose between these two women. I would choose Wei Lengyu, not that Cao Yun who shares joys and sorrows with you."
"Ah …." Mu Shan looked at Ning Cheng in disbelief. Not with the woman who shares joys and sorrows with him, but with that selfish woman? How could there be such a choice?
Ning Cheng replied with a calm voice, "That Cao Yun doesn't really want to be with you. Not only does she have a lot of cultivation resources, but she also sealed her cultivation. Her real cultivation is at the Profound Core 2nd Level, not the True Condensation 3rd Level."
Previously, when he casually glanced at her, Ning Cheng really thought that Cao Yun was at the True Condensation 3rd Level. For an ordinary female cultivator, he naturally wouldn't care about it, let alone use his spiritual consciousness to spy on her. Later, when Cao Yun walked past him, his gaze fell on Cao Yun for the second time. Only then did he notice a restriction on Cao Yun's body.
Because Cao Yun sealed this restriction herself, it didn't give off any fluctuations. Moreover, he didn't care about it, which was why he ignored it at first glance. But now that he cared about Mu Shan, he naturally cared about it.
Cao Yun not only sealed her cultivation with her own restriction, but she also had a storage bracelet. It's just that her storage bracelet was hanging on her chest, which Ning Cheng didn't pay attention to. Moreover, Cao Yun's storage bracelet contained a lot of high-rank spirit stones.
In contrast, the number of spirit stones in Mu Shan's ring was pitiful. Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness even caught up with Wei Lengyu and forcibly opened Wei Lengyu's ring. The spirit stones inside were also pitiful, no more than Mu Shan's. From this, it could be seen that Cao Yun's pitiful and considerate appearance was just an act.
Mu Shan's mouth opened wide. He couldn't believe Ning Cheng's words at all. He knew Cao Yun too well. How could she put a restriction on herself and seal her cultivation? He didn't have anything to deceive him with. Besides, if Cao Yun really wanted his things, wouldn't it be simpler to ask him directly or kill him directly?
"Does Wei Lengyu often beat up Cao Yun?" Ning Cheng ignored Mu Shan's surprise and asked another question.
Mu Shan apparently hadn't recovered from Ning Cheng's previous words. It took him a while to reply, "No, it's the first time Hong Yi beat up Little Yun."
Ning Cheng sneered, "If I didn't guess wrong, as long as Wei Lengyu didn't come back, Cao Yun would kill her."
"Why?" Mu Shan still didn't want to accept Ning Cheng's inference.
Ning Cheng didn't answer. Instead, he released his domain and raised his hand to grab something. After a few breaths, a crystal ball appeared in Ning Cheng's hand. He threw the crystal ball to Mu Shan and said, "See for yourself."
This crystal ball was the memory crystal ball Ning Cheng had obtained from Cao Yun. Cao Yun had stayed in Formless Sect to find something. She only knew that this thing was extraordinary, and Mu Xunlin's father had obtained it. As for what it was, she didn't know.
It's just that when she came here, Mu Xunlin's father had already fallen, and Mu Xunlin had also disappeared for a long time. Mu Xunlin's son, Mu Nan, had also fallen, leaving only Mu Nan's son, Mu Shan. With Cao Yun's strength, she couldn't search the soul of Mu Shan, who had an Essence Building Cultivation. She could only stay by Mu Shan's side and keep knocking on his door. In order to stay here alone with Mu Shan, she swallowed her anger and pretended to be meek.
It's just that Mu Shan remembered his father's teachings and never revealed the secret of Formless Sect's stone stele.
After a long time, Cao Yun started to like Mu Shan. She wanted to find a chance to kill Wei Lengyu, but Wei Lengyu never left Mu Shan's side. This time, Wei Lengyu left in anger, which was exactly what she wanted. She didn't expect that Ning Cheng would come here with the Sect Master Token, which immediately made her heart beat faster. Unfortunately, she hid outside and listened for a long time but didn't hear anything.
