Chapter 1388 - 1321: Would I Be Afraid of Him?

Next.

The two discussed the details and then returned to the ancient castle.

At this moment, the people from the Mu Family who had gone out to search were returning one after another.

"How was it?"

The Family Head of the Mu Family asked.

A middle-aged man replied, "We searched both inside and outside the Sacred Mountain but found no suspicious person."

"What about the green snake?"

Elder Fang asked.

Someone said, "We found quite a few green snakes, but most hadn't developed spiritual wisdom, so we couldn't get much information."

"It seems it might have been some beasts without spiritual wisdom that unintentionally intruded and triggered the mechanism."

Elder Fang muttered, letting out a sigh of relief secretly.

The Family Head of the Mu Family looked at Elder Fang and smiled, "Actually, I think you're being overly cautious. After all, with the protection of our divine power barrier, who could possibly infiltrate without being noticed?"

"Better safe than sorry!"

Elder Fang smiled faintly, glanced at everyone, and waved, "Since nothing was found, back to your places!"

Everyone nodded and successively entered the stone tower.

The Family Head of the Mu Family and Elder Hai exchanged smiles and turned around to leave.

"A false alarm."

Inside the ancient castle.

Gongsun Bei chuckled.

Qin Feiyang's eyes flashed as he maneuvered the castle, swiftly flying toward the medicine field.

"Where are we going?"

Gongsun Bei asked doubtfully.

"Just wait and see!"

Qin Feiyang replied with a mysterious smile.

Buzz!

At this moment.

Gongsun Bei's Image Crystal Stone hummed.

He took out the Image Crystal Stone, and the phantom of an elderly man in black quickly materialized.

It was the former Deputy Pavilion Master of the Trading Pavilion!

Qin Feiyang observed him while maneuvering the castle.

Back then, this man was hunched over, weakly breathed, and his eyes were dim, but now, his once old body seemed quite robust.

His aura had also become very assertive,

And those eyes, like two sharp blades, gave an impression of piercing sharpness.

"Young friend, long time no see."

The Deputy Pavilion Master also looked Qin Feiyang up and down, his face filled with a smile.

Yet inside, he was truly shocked!

Unexpectedly, Qin Feiyang had already broken through to a Two-star War Emperor so quickly, and at this rate, it wouldn't take long for him to catch up with these old relics.

"It hasn't been that long, right?"

Qin Feiyang said with a smile.

"Not long to you."

"But to an old man like me, every day felt like a year before breaking through to Pseudo God."

The Deputy Pavilion Master said.

"Now you've finally reached the end of the hardship, haven't you?"

Qin Feiyang said.

The Deputy Pavilion Master chuckled, "We'll have time to catch up later, let's handle the business first."

Qin Feiyang nodded and asked, "Where are you now?"

The Deputy Pavilion Master said, "We're just outside the entrance, ready and waiting."

"Is the entrance guarded now?"

Qin Feiyang asked.

"Yes."

"And not just one."

The Deputy Pavilion Master said.

"How many?"

Qin Feiyang frowned.

"Five."

"All are Nine-Star War Emperors."

The Deputy Pavilion Master replied.

Qin Feiyang laughed, "If it's only Nine-Star War Emperors, it's not even a warm-up for you, right?"

The Deputy Pavilion Master smiled without speaking, but his face showed immense confidence.

Qin Feiyang shook his head with a smile, "Alright, just stay there stealthily and wait for our news."

The Deputy Pavilion Master nodded, and the shadow quickly dispersed.

Shortly after!

Qin Feiyang maneuvered the castle again and arrived above the medicine field.

"Wait for me."

Turning to Gongsun Bei, Qin Feiyang said and then entered the ancient tower, taking out the Image Crystal Stone.

Buzz!

The phantom of the young lady from the Dragon Phoenix Building appeared immediately.

"We can start now!"

Qin Feiyang said, his eyes gleaming.

"Got it."

"Be careful yourself too."

The young lady from the Dragon Phoenix Building advised.

"Mm."

Qin Feiyang nodded, then put away the Image Crystal Stone and returned to the ancient castle, looking at Luk Zheng with a smile, "Do you have a Taishi Chair?"

"Of course."

Luk Zheng waved his hand, and three Taishi Chairs appeared.

The two of them sat down on the chairs.

"You should sit too!"

Luk Zheng looked at Gongsun Bei and smiled, then took out two wine jugs from the Qiankun Bag and looked at Qin Feiyang, "Little cousin, want some?"

"Of course I do."

Qin Feiyang grinned and took a wine jug.

Then, the two lay back on the Taishi Chairs, leisurely drinking and watching the scene of the old man in white robes, with not a hint of tension in the air.

Witnessing this, Gongsun Bei was dumbfounded.

But the next moment, he was infuriated, shouting, "What are you doing? Don't you know what the situation is? How can you still be in the mood to drink?"

Luk Zheng laughed, "No matter what you do, you need to stay calm and proceed step by step."

Qin Feiyang nodded, "Exactly, haste makes waste."

Gongsun Bei looked furious.

But Qin Feiyang and Luk Zheng just focused on drinking and ignored him.

In the end.

Gongsun Bei had no choice but to sit beside them, with an upset face, "Is there more wine?"

"As much as you want."

Luk Zheng grinned and handed a jug to Gongsun Bei.

"Hmph, I'll see what you're scheming!"

Gongsun Bei snorted through his nose and took a gulp from the jug.

...

Meanwhile!

Endless Sea.

"Mother, Qin Feiyang sent a message, we can take action now."

On the mountain peak.

The young lady of the Phoenix Tower looked at the mysterious lady and said.

The mysterious lady opened her eyes, two beams of icy light shooting out as she rose and looked at the young lady, saying, "You don't need to worry about this, just focus on your closed-door cultivation."

"The teacher is trapped at Sword Edge, how can I possibly concentrate on cultivating!"

The young lady sighed deeply.

The mysterious lady said helplessly, "Child, you're filled with virtues, but you're just too sentimental. You know that's not good, right?"

"I know, but all these years, it was my teacher who always accompanied me, took care of me, even raised me to adulthood."

"And you?"

"Though you gave birth to me, have you ever cared for me?"

"No."

"So, in terms of feelings, my affection for my teacher is deeper than for you. The teacher is my true family, and I can't let go."

The young lady said, her voice laden with sorrow.

The mysterious lady fell silent, looking at the young lady with a complicated expression.

After a long while.

She patted the young lady on the shoulder and said with regret, "Child, it's all mother's fault. I'm sorry."

The young lady said, "I don't want your apology, just that you save my teacher."

"Alright, alright."

"I'll go and rescue your teacher right away."

The mysterious lady smiled.

"Really?"

The young lady asked.

"When have I ever lied to you?"

The mysterious lady shook her head with a smile and asked, "Do you know why I agreed to collaborate with Qin Feiyang this time?"

"Why?"

The young lady was curious.

"It's precisely to save your teacher."

"This time, the Pseudo God of the General Tower has gone to the Mu Family, so the strongest person left at the General Tower are those elders like Wang Su."

"With their strength, can they possibly stop me?"

The mysterious lady smiled.

"I see."

The young lady suddenly realized.

"In fact, this time, our alliance with the General Tower and Qin Feiyang against the Mu Family, we're all having our own hidden agendas."

"The only difference lies in who will be the ultimate winner this time?"

The mysterious lady said.

"Then who does mother think will be the ultimate winner?"

The young lady asked.

"Of course, it's us."

"First, we can take the opportunity to rescue your teacher."

"Second, we disrupt the Mu Family's forces."

"Third, the Mu Family's medicine fields."

The mysterious lady smiled.

The young lady chuckled, "So mother has already calculated everything."

"Just joking, can't you see who our partner is this time?"

"Collaborating with that kid Qin Feiyang, if you don't use your brain, you'll certainly end up under his thumb."

The mysterious lady snorted coldly.

"Didn't expect mother to have someone she fears as well."

The young lady covered her mouth with a smile.

"Am I afraid of him?"

"What big waves can a little brat like him stir up?"

The mysterious lady's face was filled with disdain.

"Really?"

The young lady looked at her with a smile.

"Nonsense."

The mysterious lady said angrily, but her gaze on the young lady gradually grew secretly uneasy.

"That's it."

"You concentrate on your closed-door cultivation, I promise to bring your teacher back to you unharmed."

After hurriedly leaving this sentence, the mysterious lady flew into the air, swiftly heading to the sky above a canyon.

She looked down at the canyon and said, "Old partner, come on out."

Whoosh!

Before long.

A middle-aged man swept out from the canyon, landing in front of the mysterious lady.

This person was none other than that Pseudo God who had helped the mysterious lady many times before.

Furthermore.

His strength had also reached the peak of the Pseudo God realm!

He was a super terrifying Ultimate being.

"What's going on?"

The middle-aged man asked.

"Qin Feiyang is looking to cooperate with me..."

The mysterious lady quickly and briefly explained the situation.

The middle-aged man frowned and said, "So what's your plan?"

"You handle Elder Yi, I'll go to the General Tower to rescue people."

The mysterious lady said.

The middle-aged man said, "I really don't want to get involved in your disputes anymore, but considering our past relationship, I agree to help you, but in the future, you'll owe me a favor."

"No problem."

The mysterious lady nodded.

"Then let's act!"

The middle-aged man said.

The two of them opened a portal at the same time and stepped through it without looking back.

...

And just at the same time.

A hundred miles away, there was a small island.

On the island, rocks stood chaotically, shrubs grew wildly, and you could even see some sea beasts wandering around.

At the center of the island, there was a mountain, about a hundred feet high, where two elders stood side by side at the edge of a cliff on the mountain peak.

One of them, dressed in a white robe, stood with a straight posture.

His white hair fluttered in the wind, appearing to have an ethereal and Daoist bearing, but if you observed closely, you could find a heavy hostility in his expression.

That's right!

This person was the First Patriarch Mu!

The other, dressed in a green robe, wore a mask on his face, hiding his true appearance, only a pair of slightly sinister eyes visible.

He was undoubtedly Elder Yi!

First Patriarch Mu frowned and asked in a low voice, "Elder Yi, does it make sense for us to keep waiting here? Why not just take action."

"Just take action?"

"Easier said than done. Do you know how terrifying that middle-aged man's strength is?"

"I can responsibly tell you, taking direct action would result in mutual destruction, ultimately benefiting the General Tower."

Elder Yi said.
