It had been a while since Cang Ye's last visit. It should have been close to two months since Huang Ran arrived.
Cang Ye had come on the second day of the mission, so it should have been more than two months before the Hundred Saints Temple received the news and sent someone over.
After stepping out of the teleportation array, Huang Ran immediately released his domain. Sage Realm experts shared many domains, so it was a good idea to use it as a map.
Compared to Mo Tiankong's domain, Huang Ran's domain was much bigger. When fully released, it should be able to cover an area of about a thousand miles.
It was about the same size as the Blue Sea Empire's domain. It could easily destroy a city.
The fluctuations of the domain instantly covered the entire Miracle City. After spending some time investigating, he found the general store.
It didn't matter if he didn't recognize it, as long as he knew the name. The store's signboard was hanging there, so he just needed to spend some time searching for it in his domain.
A somewhat illusory figure appeared above the general store.
There were many cultivators lining up in the Miracle City Square below, waiting to enter the store.
"Is this store's business so good?"
Huang Ran didn't move. The domain couldn't cover this area, so there must be an expert here.
However, he didn't hide his aura fluctuations at all, so the owner of this place should be able to sense it.
Huang Ran didn't speak, just standing there quietly. However, one minute passed, two minutes passed, and there were only a few cultivators going in and out of the store.
There were many cultivators whispering about him, but the owner of this place still didn't come out. What was going on?
Huang Ran didn't know that the store had the power of the System to isolate auras. Naturally, there was no Sage Realm aura in the store.
If he made a sound, Mo Tiankong would be able to sense it. Otherwise, with his aura isolated, who would know?
Inside the store, Mo Tiankong was still working as a cashier, completely unaware that someone had come looking for trouble.
As for whether or not this person was looking for trouble, it didn't need to be said. For the Hundred Saints Temple to send a Sage Realm expert here, it should be because of Cang Ye's death.
The question was, did this person look like he was here to chat? Was he here to hold him accountable?
"Store Manager Mo, there's someone outside standing above the store. He's not saying anything, so I don't know what's going on."
A warrior who had just entered said to Mo Tiankong.
"Oh, okay."
Mo Tiankong took a moment to reply.
However, with this warrior's reminder, Mo Tiankong also wanted to see who was so bored.
Yes, Mo Tiankong didn't even think about Cang Ye. This was because his knowledge was limited, and Mo Tiankong didn't even know about the existence of the Hundred Saints Hall.
Of course, with someone's reminder, Mo Tiankong still sent out his spiritual power to take a look.
It would've been better if he hadn't seen it. However, he knew that there was a problem once he saw it. This was the spiritual projection of a sage expert.
"Sir, why don't you come out and meet me?"
Ever since Mo Tiankong released the power of his soul, Huang Ran had already sensed it. After all, his cultivation base was higher than Mo Tiankong's.
Mo Tiankong understood that the other party had already discovered him. This person's cultivation base was higher than his.
After collecting the spirit stones from the warrior in front of him, Mo Tiankong walked out of the cashier counter and headed out of the store.
Above the store, Huang Ran's spiritual projection had already dissipated. However, it was replaced by his real body.
After chatting with Mo Tiankong, Huang Ran didn't act arrogantly and directly tore through space to come over.
Although Huang Ran's current spiritual power was strong enough to fight an ordinary expert like Wu Sheng, the Wu Sheng who could kill Cang Ye wasn't so simple.
Of course, there wasn't much of a difference between the real body and the projection. When the domain was opened, the real body would arrive in an instant.
However, if Mo Tiankong had some kind of weapon that could injure the soul, then there was no need for his soul to be injured.
If a Sage Stage expert launched a sneak attack on his soul, then his soul would also be injured in that instant.
Mo Tiankong had a weapon that could injure the soul, but Mo Tiankong didn't have the habit of attacking indiscriminately. Therefore, he didn't launch a sneak attack.
He didn't know the other party's intentions, but the other party was an expert. Under such circumstances, he might as well chat first.
"Sir, are you Mo Tiankong, the store manager of this store?"
Huang Ran asked when he saw Mo Tiankong come out.
"That's right. Aren't you going to introduce yourself?"
Mo Tiankong admitted it without hesitation and then asked.
Although he had already identified the other party and knew the other party's identity, it didn't seem right to know without asking.
"Introduce myself? Do you want to introduce yourself? I am Hundred Saints Hall's Fufeng Wu Sheng, Huang Ran."
"Store Manager Mo, why isn't there any record of you entering the Sage Stage in the Hundred Saints Hall?"
Although Huang Ran had come to question Mo Tiankong, he couldn't just listen to one side of the story. His words didn't contain any killing intent.
A Saint wasn't someone who could be punished or killed at will.
Each Saint Stage elite warrior was the backbone of the human race. It was apparent from the small number of Saint Stage warriors in the enormous Tian Xuan Land.
It was a fact that Cang Ye had been killed, but if there was a reasonable explanation, it would at most be a small punishment.
A Sage Stage expert could be said to be at the top of the pyramid in the Profound Sky Continent. Every one of them was incomparably precious.
They were the reason why the demonic beasts in the mountain ranges of the continent were deterred. To be able to suppress so many demonic beasts in the mountain ranges, there was no lack of Sage Stage existences.
It was obviously impossible to just rely on words. Only by maintaining absolute suppression in terms of strength would one be able to restrain these violent demonic beasts as if they were being kept in captivity.
"I'm a cultivator from the Eastern Xuan Region. I've never left the Eastern Xuan Region, so I don't know about this matter."
Saying that he hadn't left the Eastern Xuan Region wasn't a lie. Although his reputation in the Southern Xuan Region was almost full, Mo Tiankong really hadn't gone there.
Furthermore, Mo Tiankong's cultivation was completely dependent on cheating. The speed of his cultivation couldn't be explained by common sense. Even if he knew about a place like the Hundred Saints Hall, he wouldn't have recorded it.
Furthermore, no one had told him that he had to register at the Hundred Saints Hall after entering the Sage Stage.
In fact, the outside world wasn't clear about Mo Tiankong's strength. Why was that? Although Mo Tiankong had killed seven Great Emperors and Sages, Mo Tiankong himself hadn't said anything about his strength, so no one knew.
Even if someone told you, what was the point of telling you if they didn't know your strength?
Furthermore, there really weren't many people who knew about this matter. Ordinary powers wouldn't be able to come in contact with it. Only the imperial family and some ancient powers would know.
Furthermore, the Hundred Saints Hall hadn't registered all Wu Sheng's experts. Some people had never stepped into the Central Xuan Region, and no one knew their cultivation base. Who knew?
Could it be that those Sages didn't do anything but search the Xuan Region one by one? That wasn't realistic.
Of course, there weren't many people who didn't go to the Central Xuan Region to seek a higher path. At the very least, the Hundred Saints Hall really did have a record of ninety-nine percent of Wu Sheng's experts.
Their accomplishments in the outer regions were limited. Since they had cultivated to such a level, they clearly wanted to see the end of the martial path. Why didn't they go to the Central Xuan Region?
It wasn't like they could proclaim themselves as kings. If they did, the Central Xuan Region would get the news, and it wouldn't be long before Sages came looking for them.
The Hundred Saints Hall's purpose was to leave one's name for people to revere, and it was also to restrain Wu Sheng's experts.
Wu Sheng's experts could easily destroy countries. If they really went all out, they could easily destroy countries. So there really was a need to restrain them.
Everyone was supervising each other. There would always be people who weren't on the same side as you, especially Sages. One person might not be able to subdue you, but what about a group of Sages in the same realm?
Dealing with you wouldn't be a problem.
What was Huang Ran's intention? Could it be that he just wanted to register with him?
Mo Kongkong also knew why Huang Ran came here from the appraisal skill. His identity was easy to say, so the appraisal skill would also show some other things.
For example, Huang Ran came here for Cang Ye's matter, but he didn't mention Cang Ye's matter at all. This made Mo Kongkong puzzled.
"Since that's the case, when this matter is over, why don't you come with me to the Hundred Saints Hall to register? If you have something to do and can't go, I can do it for you."
Hearing this, Huang Ran said.
Mo Tiankong was dumbfounded. What kind of operation was this?
In truth, when he thought about it, Huang Ran had personally come not only to hold Cang Ye accountable, but also to register.
Someone who could kill Cang Ye was naturally a Sage, and a Sage that the Hundred Saints Hall didn't know about. So he definitely had to register with the Hundred Saints Hall.
The majority of Sages would personally go to the Central Xuan Region to register. Of course, if they weren't willing or had something to do, Huang Ran, one of the managers of the Hundred Saints Hall, could do it for them.
"Cough cough, Fufeng Wu Sheng, I don't know why you've come. If it's just this matter, then I'll have to trouble you. There are too many things to do in the store."
Mo Tiankong felt a bit helpless. They hadn't even finished the main matter, so it wasn't appropriate to start the registration.
In truth, Mo Tiankong didn't know how to answer Huang Ran. If they were to fight, would he still be able to register with the Hundred Saints Hall?
So Mo Tiankong was reminding Huang Ran that there was a mistake in the order of priority.
"… You were the one who killed Cang Ye."
Huang Ran also came back to his senses and said.
Actually, this was very normal. When a Sage died, someone had to be held accountable. Even if it was just for show, it still had to be done.
But after seeing Mo Tiankong, this newly ascended Sage, Huang Ran directly wanted to go through the process.
After all, a dead person had no value, but it didn't mean that they could casually attack a Sage Realm expert, especially if it was an internal conflict.
"Yes."
Finally, they entered the main topic. Mo Tiankong finally pulled Huang Ran back to the right path.
"Store Manager Mo, every Sage Realm expert is a pillar of the continent. It has been more than three hundred years since a Sage died, and it wasn't at the hands of a fellow Sage."
"This matter can be big or small. Store Manager Mo, I need a reasonable explanation."
Huang Ran solemnly looked at Mo Tiankong and said.
Mo Tiankong fell silent. Huang Ran was a Rank Seven Wu Sheng. He was a Rank Seven Wu Sheng.
