"Don't you plan to let these mortals know about your existence?" After the members of the Xiufan investigation team left, Sect Master Zhang came to Mao Rui's side and asked softly.

From beginning to end, Mao Rui did not reveal his figure to mortals, and Sect Master Zhang noticed this.

"There's no need. Mao Rui shook his head, his voice low.

The two are not familiar with each other, but after a nod of their heads, there is nothing more to say after two sentences.

After a moment of silence, Mao Rui arched his hand at the people of the Crane Spirit Sect present and turned to leave.

Looking at the back of Mao Rui leaving, Hongling was a little stunned.

Once upon a time, she Hongling was just a girl/child in the Crane Spirit Sect who did chores for others.

No identity, no background, and not much cultivation.

Hongling believes that her whole life has been spent in the service of others.

It wasn't until that day that the arrival of Nian Yue made a huge change in Hongling's life.

It was also from that day that Hongling's vision began to rise.

Because she already knew that her master, Nian Yue, was one of the four ancient cultivation forces, the heir of the Lord of the Remnant Moon Sect, and she was the only disciple of Nian Yue.

The starting point is different, the achievements are different, as the future Wanyue Sect master single disciple, Hongling's vision is naturally higher.

The so-called genius and arrogance of this kind of local small force is not worthy of comparison with her at all.

Mao Rui, who was in the limelight at the time, was not taken seriously by Hongling.

After the news that Mao Rui had become a mortal, Hongling regarded Mao Rui as an ant.

Even after hearing the news of Mao Rui's return before the auction began, Hongling did not change her mind and still regarded Mao Rui as an ant.

But the ants in her eyes are obviously similar in cultivation, but their combat power is far superior to her. As a result, Hongling was scolded and insulted by Mao Rui at the auction, but he did not dare to refute.

The next time I saw Mao Rui was after the ruins. At that time, Mao Rui was already stronger than at the auction, Hongling glanced at it from a distance, and did not provoke or curry favor.

Then, Mao Rui appeared out of thin air in the square of the Crane Spirit Sect, in this own sect, there were many disciples and elders, and Hongling suddenly felt that the opportunity to retaliate against Mao Rui for his rudeness to her at the auction had come.

came to the square in a hurry, and after seeing Mao Rui, Hongling was dazed and found that she didn't know where to take revenge on Mao Rui, so she had to pretend to shout at Mao Ruijiao a few times, and asked about the purpose of coming to the Crane Spirit Sect.

Then watching Mao Rui sacrifice the earth and protect mortals, Hongling had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

It felt strange, sympathetic, sad, and in short, it made her very uncomfortable.

"Hui Zong. ”

Sect Master Zhang's order brought Hongling back to her senses, glanced at the direction where Mao Rui had left again, and returned to the sect with everyone.

What Hongling himself didn't know was that after being accepted as a disciple by Nianyue when he was a child, Hongling's heart has undergone some kind of change today because of one person again.

This is the second change in her life, this change can be very subtle, so subtle that no one notices, including Hongling herself;

Sect Master Zhang had just returned to the sect with everyone, and three shocks appeared in the sky in the distance, chasing the stars and catching the moon, towards the Crane Spirit Sect.

In just the blink of an eye, the three shocking rays had already come to the sky above the Crane Spirit Sect, revealing the three figures inside.

An old man, a woman, and a middle-aged man.

The old man's body was rickety, he seemed to be weak, and his cloudy eyes were open and closed, but there was majesty, and this kind of momentum belonged to people who had been in high positions for a long time. Putting on a good show, he looked at the people of the Crane Spirit Sect with a smile.

The woman is in her early thirties, with a skirt outlining graceful curves, her appearance is very charming/glamorous, and her eyes are moving, which seems to be able to hook people's souls.

The middle-aged man is handsome, looking to be in his early thirties, dressed in a long gown, with his long hair coiled up at will, dressed in ancient costume. The arrogant color between the eyebrows makes people see at a glance that this person must be a person who will not be bound by the rules.

The three of them are: Nian Yue, who was worried about his disciple, Dongfang Xuyang, who came to watch the play, and Mao Yihong, who came to end Mao Rui.

Nian Yue saw Hongling below at a glance, stepped out, came directly to Hongling, grabbed Hongling's shoulder, looked up and down with worry, and asked urgently: "Xiaoling, are you okay? Did that kid from the Mao clan do anything to you? Is there any place where you are uncomfortable? Where does it hurt?"

Hongling was a little happy when she saw Shizun suddenly appear, but then, she was amazed by Nianyue's question. At the same time, I was a little touched that Shizun cared so much about her.

Hongling, who has lost her parents since she was a child, feels what family affection is.

Holding the hands that were pressed on his shoulders, he asked Nian Yue, "Master, what's wrong with you?" The disciple is very good, and the master doesn't have to worry. ”

Nian Yue had also calmed down at this time, and her divine sense carefully gave Hongling a full body examination, and found no problems, and said after breathing a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it seems that the Mao kid is quite knowledgeable, and he didn't come to hurt you." ”

"Mao boy, does Shizun mean Mao Rui?" the long eyelashes fluttered a few times, and Hongling asked with a puzzled look.

"Uh...", but now I asked Nian Yue, I have been calling Mao Rui by the Mao boy, junior, and little brother, and I don't know what the specific name is.

"Yes, it's Mao Rui. Falling down with Dongfang Xuyang, Mao Yihong spoke.

"Hey, it's you, senior! Hongling thanks your seniors for saving each other in the ruins last time. Hongling recognized Mao Yihong and hurriedly gave a salute.

The Wanyue Gate learned the news of the key from the Crane Spirit Sect, and Nian Yue naturally knew that when he first explored the ruins, Hongling was saved by Mao Yihong.

At this moment, when I heard Hongling mention it, she also nodded to Mao Yihong in a friendly way.

"It doesn't matter. Mao Yihong stopped and said to Hongling: "Little girl, let me ask you, Mao Rui, didn't you come here?"

Let's not talk about whether the key is on Mao Rui, just because the Xiufan investigation team wants him, Mao Yihong is not at ease to let Mao Rui leave him too far.

Originally, it was Nian Yue who was anxious, but Mao Yihong was just ready to deal with it, and after Nian Yue's disciple was killed by Mao Rui, he was prepared for a series of troubles.

At this moment, seeing that Nianyue's disciple was fine, and Mao Rui was not here, he became anxious.

Hongling: "Here it is." ”

Mao Yihong: "What about people?"

Hongling: "Let's go!"

"Where did you go?" Mao Yihong became more and more anxious the more he asked, and somehow, talking to this girl made him feel the urge to kill someone.

"Hmm... I don't know. Hongling thought carefully for a while and said.

"Poof~" Nian Yue couldn't hold back and laughed, which made many disciples of the Crane Spirit Sect show their obsession.

Mao Yihong glared at Nianyue, held back his anger, and said to Hongling: "Little girl, are you playing the old man?"

"How dare Hongling play with his predecessors, it's just that Hongling really doesn't know where Mao Rui is. Hongling hurriedly lowered her head and admitted her mistake, looking well-behaved, so that people couldn't find any fault.

After Hongling admitted Mao Yihong's mistake, he turned to Sect Master Zhang and asked, "Sect Master, do you know where Mao Rui went?"

"I... I... I..."

Nian Yue this person, Sect Master Zhang naturally knows, in terms of speed, there are not many people who can not lag behind Nian Yue, in this earth cultivation realm, although Sect Master Zhang does not recognize it, but he also knows that any one of them is an existence that he cannot afford to provoke.

Seeing that Hongling threw the topic to himself, Sect Master Zhang had already trembled and couldn't speak.

'Hongling, Hongling, I usually treat you well, why do you have to hurt me so much?' Sect Master Zhang felt this bitterness in his heart.

Anyone with a little vision can see that Nianyue's attitude towards Mao Rui is not good, and this middle-aged man obviously has a good relationship with Mao Rui. Regarding the question of Mao Rui's whereabouts, he answered that it was easy to offend Nian Yue, and if he didn't answer, he would offend a middle-aged man.

Hongling directly threw this question to Sect Master Zhang, didn't this hurt Sect Master Zhang?

What's even more unfortunate is that Sect Master Zhang doesn't know where Mao Rui is, how can he answer?

"Hahaha"

Sect Master Zhang was still nervous about the organizational wording, and Dongfang Xuyang laughed directly.

He came along, because he wanted to see Nianyue's jokes, but he didn't see Nianyue's jokes, but instead watched Mao Yihong's jokes, how could he not make him laugh out loud.

"Sect Master Zhang, just say, where is the little guy named Mao Rui. Nian Yue saw that Mao Yihong's face was ugly, and she was afraid that he would be mad in the Crane Spirit Sect, so she hurriedly came out

Played a round.

The juniors don't know where Mao Rui went, but before they separated, Mao Rui went north. With Nianyue's permission, Sect Master Zhang hurriedly said.

"The Mao tribe is in the west of this place, what is he going to do in the north?" Mao Yihong muttered to himself.

"The North... North..."Hongling was also muttering somewhere, suddenly as if he had thought of something, he turned his head to Sect Master Zhang and asked, "Sect Master, two days ago, was there a large number of cultivators from the Cultivation Investigation Team gathered on the mountain range fifty miles north of this place?"

"What? The Xiufan investigation team, gathering a large number of people, what are they doing in that place?" Without waiting for Sect Master Zhang to speak, Mao Yihong was shocked.

"It is said that one of them rebelled and fled to the mountain, and the others pursued him. "This matter has nothing to do with the Crane Spirit Sect, and Sect Master Zhang directly said what he knew.

"Do you know how many monks the Xiufan investigation team has dispatched?" Mao Yihong continued to ask.

Dongfang Xuyang and Nian Yue glanced at each other, both feeling strange about Mao Yihong's urgency.

"There are about two Jindan monks, hundreds of foundation building monks, and the number of consecutive monks is relatively large, and it has not been fully counted. ”

The Mao people have been relocated for a while, and they have guessed that Mao Yihong is a strong man of the Mao people. Knowing the cause and effect between Mao Rui and Xiufan's investigation team, he told everything he knew.

"Damn. Mao Yihong roared angrily, harnessed the light, and hurried away in the north direction.

"Strange, why is Mao Yihong so anxious?" Nian Yue said puzzled.

"Yes, the members of the Xiufan investigation team are also organized and disciplined, and they are not cruel and murderous. Even if his clansmen stepped into the scope of the Xiufan investigation team's activities, at most, they would be unceremoniously asked to leave, and they would not hurt their lives. "The Oriental Sunrise is also a miracle.

"To others, it's not dangerous, but Mauri is different. Sect Master Zhang said in a quiet tone.
