Chapter Seventy-Five: Prosperity Must Fall
"Xiao Luo, eat quickly, it won't taste good if it's cold for a while!" Mu Tianqing urged, and put another piece of butter cake into his bowl.
Han Yuluo took a bite gently, and the soft and sweet taste instantly penetrated his heart, and it was a hundred times more delicious than the delicacies of the mountains and seas he ate in the Red Fang all day and night! His eyes suddenly moistened.
On the way back, the three of them chatted enthusiastically, Han Yuluo himself was surprised, he didn't expect him to talk to the father and daughter so speculatively, and walked to the door of the red fang, Mu Zixin stretched out his hand, saying that he wanted to reconcile with Han Yuluo, Han Yuluo also happily held her hand, and the two of them invariably showed eight small teeth.
"Sister Yuqian, is she okay now, I forgot to call her out!" Mu Zixin suddenly remembered Xia Yuqian, and said with some regret.
"She went home with her parents...... Han Yuluo said, remembering the scene when she met Xia Yuqian in the backyard that night.
"Ah......" Mu Zixin said disappointedly after hearing this, "I haven't even had time to say goodbye to her yet......"
"Don't worry, she'll be here again when she has time. Han Yuluo comforted.
"Hmm!"
After dinner, Mu Zixin found a secluded open space to practice, she took out the inexplicable golden jade knife, and ran the internal strength to fuse with it, but after a long time, she found that the knife had not changed. Mu Zixin was very strange, his internal force transformation had obviously been perfected, why was he still incompatible with this golden knife?
She looked at the beautiful but useless golden jade knife at a loss, and thought to herself, "Is it only good when cutting vegetables?"
Twilight, Ziyun Mountain.
The old sect leader walked out of the main hall, and the evening breeze blew the slightly vicissitudes of wrinkles on his face.
"Haven't you found it yet?" he asked Ling Mu.
"It's all the incompetence of his subordinates, and he hasn't been able to find out the whereabouts of the young master yet!" Ling Mu lowered his head and half-knelt behind him.
"That's it!" The old man closed his eyes as he spoke.
"Sect Master, my subordinates believe that when this happens, the most important thing that should be thoroughly investigated is the Holy Heavenly Maiden, as the Great Elder of Ziyun Mountain, she has been staying in Yiguo all the year round, and her relationship with the Silver Bun Sect is too close, which makes others can't figure out whether she is an Elder of Ziyun Mountain or an Elder of the Silver Bun Sect!"
"Ling Mu, do you think there is really so-called justice in this Xuan Realm?"
Ling Mu was stunned by the old sect leader's question, and hurriedly replied: "Of course there is, sect leader, isn't our Ziyun Mountain adhering to the way of 'the world is for the public', resisting the monopoly of one party, and safeguarding the livelihood of the people?"
The old man smiled and asked, "Do you think which side of Ziyun Mountain or the Silver Bun Sect is more powerful?"
Ling Mu was speechless for a moment after hearing this, the masters of the Silver Bun Sect were like clouds, and the top one-third of the martial arts list were people in his sect, except for the old sect master Shenshu who had already been ranked into the dark list, the Mansion Master Shenyin of the Divine Mansion ranked third, the Holy Heavenly Maiden ranked fourth, Qingfeng ranked tenth, and even the ranking of the Young Sect Master Shenshu was also seventeenth. And in addition to the sect leader of Ziyun Mountain ranking above the dark list, only the young master Chen Kefan is ranked second in the top ten, but after all, he is also inextricably linked to the Silver Bun Sect, and now he is gone......
"Sect Master, although it is true that Ziyun Mountain alone cannot compete with it, we can still gather the strength of the Six Kingdoms to fight against it!"
"Do you mean the six countries of Yu, Jing, Heng, Ji, Yue, and Wu?" the old man asked with a smile.
Ling Mu nodded inexplicably, thinking to himself if there were other countries in the Xuan Realm besides these six countries?
"At present, many places in Yuguo are perennially poor, the national government is mediocre, the taxes are strict, and the people are miserable, and the Han government relies on the financial support of the Red Fang to survive among the four major families, and Han Xiaotian alone can be called surprising; although Yasukuni has strong national strength, rich people, and close to the spiritual world, and has close contacts with the spirit race, its folk customs are not right, and the people have more people who are attached to the fire; the army of Hengguo is excellent at war, and the water and soil are rich. The food is sufficient, but the royal family is in decline, and the military power is in the hands of Xuanwuling Hongyi, this person is willing to fight against the Yinji Sect, but its real purpose is also to expand its own power, from this point of view, its essence is no different from the Yinji Sect; After saying that, the old man turned to look at Ling Mu again, and asked, "In this way, if we want to gather the strength of these six countries to fight against the Silver Hair Sect, what do you think are the odds of victory?"
Ling Mu didn't know how to answer, the current situation was indeed as the sect leader said, but even if they could find a way to suppress the Silver God Clan, the Xuanwu Ling Mansion would definitely take the opportunity to expand its power and become the second Silver Hair Sect......
"Is it just to let the Silver Bun Sect do evil?" Ling Mu asked unwillingly.
"The Silver Bun Sect looks indestructible, but in fact, it is internally scattered and the people's hearts are uneven, and it has been a feud with the Xuanwu Tomb Mansion for several generations, and now the matter of no trace has become the fuse of the war between the two factions. ”
"Do you mean, let the Xuanwu Tomb Mansion go and fight the Silver Bun Sect? When the two sides have made enough trouble, we will join forces with other forces to completely destroy the two?" Ling Mu suddenly realized.
"It's just that Hongyi may not be so easily fooled," the old sect leader shook his head with a helpless smile and said, "Xuanwuling Hongyi has always been cautious, with his style, I am afraid that he will first annex the Hanche Sect, and then find other ways to confront the Silver God Clan." ”
With that, he turned to look at Lenki again.
"Now looking at the matter of the Holy Heavenly Maiden, instead of us thoroughly investigating her to offend the Silver Hair Sect, it is better for everyone to know each other and stay one step," the old man said and returned to the original question, "Everything in the world is extremely prosperous and must decline, even the so-called immortal Enma clan was finally defeated, let alone the Silver Hair Sect. But I'm afraid that in the long run, it will be the people who will suffer in the end......"
Ling Mu also turned his back to the sky after hearing this, and sighed helplessly.
"By the way, what happened to the little girl you sent someone to watch?"
"Do you mean that child named Mu Zixin? She is indeed a very talented martial arts wizard, and she has practiced internal force transformation at the age of ten, but the disciple in charge of monitoring her said that she didn't use that golden jade knife much," After speaking, he asked with some curiosity, "Sect Master, why do you care so much about that golden jade knife?"
The old man did not answer, he recalled the scene when he saw Wuxian for the last time, when she hurried to Ziyun Mountain, and talked about what she had seen and heard in the tomb of the Heavenly King, including mentioning the golden jade knife and the fact that it had been snatched by the Divine Mansion. Without a trace handed him the moss stele that hid the golden jade sword, the stele was engraved with the monuments of the Enma era a thousand years ago, and he asked an elder in the Elders' Pavilion who was proficient in ancient languages to translate the words on the stele, the last sentence of which was: Whoever obtains the golden sword destroys the ghosts and obtains the Seven Kingdoms.
