Ripples appeared in the air and in the next moment, a person fell out of the void and crashed to the ground.
Pu!
That person spat out a mouthful of blood and lay on the ground, unable to move.
"How is this possible? How did you see through my afterimage movement technique? That's impossible! "
His face was filled with shock and disbelief.
At the same time, Yu Tianpeng, who had been standing in front of Yang Xuan, slowly disappeared without a trace.
Yang Xuan looked at Yu Tianpeng, who was lying on the ground in fear, and sneered in his heart.
Daring to use an afterimage to escape in front of him was simply displaying one's slight skill in front of an expert.
Yu Tianpeng was still in shock, but Yang Xuan did not want to waste any more time with him. He was considering whether or not to send Yu Tianpeng to the Forgotten Land and slowly pry out the secret of the Heaven Opening Scripture from him.
At this moment, his heart trembled and his eyes flashed as he gave up on that idea.
The Dark Night Saint and the other four Saint Emissaries had returned.
Although he was very interested in the Heaven Opening Scripture, he could not make someone disappear in front of these people. He could only suppress this idea for now and think about it later.
The Dark Night Saint and the other four Saint Emissaries landed in the courtyard. Before the Dark Night Saint could speak, one of them stepped forward and coldly said to Yang Xuan, "You're Yang Xuan?"
Yang Xuan narrowed his eyes and paused for a moment before slowly saying, "That's right!"
The Saint Emissary snorted and a cold light flashed in his eyes, but he did not say anything else. He grabbed Yu Tianpeng and nodded to the Dark Night Saint before leaving with the other three.
Yang Xuan clenched his fists and his gaze became even colder.
After they left, the Dark Night Saint slowly took off his hood, revealing a pale and ordinary face that was probably due to not seeing the sun for a long time.
Then, he smiled and said to Yang Xuan, "Brother Bai, please don't take offense. That person just now could be considered Mu Renqing's master. Since you've killed Mu Renqing, he naturally wouldn't treat you kindly."
Yang Xuan finally understood.
Thinking about it, it made sense. After killing the other party's disciple, it would be strange if the other party still treated him nicely. It would be good enough if the other party didn't go all out against him.
Shaking his head, Yang Xuan couldn't help but laugh. He had too many enemies, and they were everywhere.
Seeing that he understood, the Dark Night Saint Emissary smiled and said, "Bai Xiong doesn't need to belittle yourself. After you officially join the Holy Mountain, he can't do anything to you."
Yang Xuan chuckled and said noncommittally, "I have yet to ask how I should address you."
Dark Night Saint Emissary smiled and said, "I have long forgotten my name. Just call me Dark Night."
There was a sense of closeness between their words.
This was not difficult to understand. He was the one who pulled Yang Xuan into the Sacred Mountain, and with such a relationship, he was naturally closer to Yang Xuan than others. For him, this was a strong ally.
Yang Xuan nodded and said nothing more.
Dark Night knew his temperament and didn't mind. He said, "Qing Jie and Luo Yi have already left with Yu Ruqing and returned to the Holy Mountain. But we still have a mission, and we can only go back after completing it."
Yang Xuan was a little surprised. Logically speaking, he hadn't officially joined the Holy Mountain, so he shouldn't participate too much in the Holy Mountain's affairs. Why did Dark Night pull him to do missions one after another?
Dark Night seemed to know what he was thinking. He smiled and explained, "Bai Xiong doesn't need to be surprised. Although you haven't officially joined the Holy Mountain, with me as your guarantor, you are already considered a member of the Holy Mountain. It's normal for you to participate in some things."
Yang Xuan finally understood. He nodded and didn't speak.
He wanted to ask about the Heaven-Opening Scripture, but he didn't.
According to the current situation, the Heaven-Opening Scripture was obviously very important. If he asked rashly, Dark Night probably wouldn't tell him. Moreover, he suspected that Dark Night didn't know the ins and outs of it.
Dark Night continued, "In the south of the Boat City, there is a branch of the Holy Mountain. There are a hundred Holy Disciples in it. Not long ago, news came that a strange place had been discovered."
After pausing for a moment, he continued, "But just a few days ago, we lost contact with this branch. There was no news at all. I happened to be here, so the higher-ups ordered me to go and investigate. "
Looking at Yang Xuan, he smiled and said, "Thus, I recommended Brother Bai, so that we can complete this mission together."
Seeing Yang Xuan's confusion, An Ye explained, "Brother White, there's something you don't know. In the Sacred Mountain, if you want to learn higher level cultivation techniques, obtain more resources, or enter the Sacred Temple to read the various ancient texts, you'll need to have contribution points to the sect. The exact amount of contribution points required for this mission has yet to be determined. It's possible that you'll only receive a small amount, but it's also possible that you'll receive a lot of contribution points.
Only then did Yang Xuan understand, and at the same time, he had a good impression of Dark Night.
Although he knew that the Dark Night was trying to rope him in, Yang Xuan had a good impression of the Dark Night's character.
Moreover, he had just entered the Holy Mountain, so it was convenient to have a familiar person to guide him.
Thinking of this, he cupped his hands to Dark Night and said, "Many thanks, Brother Dark."
"Haha, my surname is not Dark, Dark Night is my Holy Name. You can just call me Dark Night. In the future, when you officially join, you will also be bestowed a Holy Name. At that time, I will also have to call you by your Holy Name."
Yang Xuan understood, but at the same time, he also sighed with emotion.
He originally thought that the Holy Mountain's people were all sneaky, so they might not be good people, but now it seemed that whether it was Dark Night or Dark Night, they both had their own style of doing things, which made people have a good impression of them.
Thinking about it, there was no such thing as absolute good or bad in this world. It was nothing but the entanglement of interests, power, and status.
"Two Lords, the carriage is ready!" A voice came from outside the courtyard.
The smile on Dark Night's face disappeared, and after putting the hood back on his head, he said lightly, "Come in!"
At the same time, he explained to Yang Xuan, "This is the head of the Huang family, an outer disciple of the Holy Mountain."
The door was pushed open, and an old man in luxurious clothes quickly walked in, then knelt on the ground respectfully, and didn't dare to raise his head, "Low-level Holy Disciple Huang Dashan salutes the two Lords."
"Get up!" Dark Night said lightly, "Have the corresponding things been prepared?"
Huang Dashan kowtowed again, then stood up, but still didn't dare to raise his head.
"Reporting to Lord, everything has been prepared!"
Dark Night nodded, then asked Yang Xuan, "Brother White, what do you need to prepare? You can also give the order. "
Yang Xuan shook his head and said, "No need!"
At the same time, he also felt a little strange.
With their cultivation, why would they need a carriage to travel? They could just fly all the way.
But he knew that Dark Night had his own reasons for making such arrangements, so he didn't ask.
Dark Night nodded and said to Huang Dashan, "Alright, you can leave now. We'll set off immediately."
"Yes!" Huang Dashan bowed and took a few steps back, then turned and left. From the beginning to the end, he didn't dare to look at Yang Xuan.
After Huang Dashan left, Dark Night explained, "Originally, we didn't need a carriage, but it just so happens that we have a batch of Myriad Souls Wine to send to a stronghold along the way. Recently, it hasn't been very peaceful here, and two batches of Myriad Souls Wine have already been stolen, so we disguised ourselves as ordinary disciples, and at the same time, see what kind of expert dares to steal from the Holy Mountain."
Then he smiled and said, "Originally, such a low-level mission shouldn't be completed by the two of us. This is considered stealing money from a low-level disciple, but Brother White has just entered the Holy Mountain, no matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat. Things like contribution points can't be transferred, so we accepted it for Brother White."
Yang Xuan was a little amused. It turned out that this mission was specially accepted for him, so they were quite considerate.
But then his heart moved. This was the second time he heard the name Myriad Souls Wine, so he asked, "Brother Dark Night, what is this Myriad Souls Wine?"
