Chapter 1319

The originally noisy main tent instantly became so quiet that a needle could be heard, and almost everyone's gaze was focused on Mo Hua.

These gazes were mixed with very complex emotions.

Love and hate intertwined, both angry and resentful.

Mo Hua himself felt a bit... strange.

He scanned roughly and found that there were really quite a lot of "old acquaintances" from his time in the Ganxue prefecture in the crowd.

Shi Shi Tiangang of the Jin Gang Gate, Feng Feng Zichen of the Wu Xiaoyao Gate, and other familiar geniuses from the Eight Great Gates like the Duanjin Gate and Zixia Gate.

There were also many from the Four Great Sects, such as Ao Zheng of the Long Ding Sect, Xiao Xiao Ruohan of the Heavenly Sword Sect... even Shen Shen Cangfeng of the Shen family of the Qiandao Sect was inside, but he looked gloomy and didn't say a word while others were arguing.

Besides these, there were many aristocratic family disciples from the Dao prefecture, each wearing brocade clothes and jade, looking superior, and if talking about spirit roots and cultivation techniques, they were all top-tier.

The aristocratic family disciples from the Dao prefecture looked at Mo Hua with caution and suspicion.

The gazes of the Ganxue disciples were much more "enthusiastic."

Everyone didn't speak, just looking at Mo Hua silently like this.

Mo Hua felt a bit embarrassed being looked at, and felt that in this kind of occasion, he should say something, so he said slowly:

"Uh... long time no see..."

As soon as he spoke, the tent was in an uproar again.

"It really is Mo Hua!"

"Yes, that's right, I'll never forget this voice even if I die!"

"And this expression, eyes bright, looking innocent but also annoying... only he can make it... it makes people's teeth itch with hatred, I would recognize him even if he turned into ash."

"It's Mo Hua, this kid, for sure!"

"This kid finally dared to show his head!"

Mo Hua's face was displeased.

What kind of words were these people saying?

What do you mean by looking innocent but also annoying?

What do you mean by finally daring to show his head?

After many years of "old friends" reuniting, Mo Hua originally had a little bit of emotion, but looking at it now, they had forgotten the pain after the scars healed, and these people needed to be "disciplined" again.

Seeing that the main tent, because of Mo Hua's words, was like boiling water in a pot, it fell into noise and chaos again.

After arguing for a long time, True Person Hua couldn't watch anymore, his brows slightly furrowed:

"Alright, silence!"

This word intimidated them a little, but only a little.

This was in a second-grade mountain boundary, True Person Hua could not use the pressure of the Feather Transformation realm, so a few words of intimidation were simply not enough.

The sound in the field was small for a little while, and then it became noisy again.

True Person Hua's brows furrowed even tighter.

Mo Hua couldn't watch anymore either; these people didn't even give True Person Hua face, it was simply lawless and too much.

Mo Hua's face turned cold, and he said:

"Alright, stop arguing."

His voice wasn't loud, but it was filled with dignity. As soon as he spoke, the noise in the hall stopped instantly.

These geniuses all stopped talking.

Young Master Yuwen, who came from the Dao prefecture, was a bit unhappy when he saw this, looking at Mo Hua with a sneer:

"Who do you think you are? You tell us not to argue, and we won't argue?"

But after he finished speaking, he found the air terrifyingly quiet. Looking back, he found that no one paid any attention to him.

Especially the disciples of the Four Great Sects and Eight Great Gates of the Ganxue prefecture.

Whether it was out of instinct or habit, as soon as Mo Hua spoke, these originally arrogant Ganxue geniuses all shut their mouths.

Young Master Yuwen's face changed.

True Person Hua and True Person Brother Zhuge looked at Mo Hua again.

Hua Ping also looked at Mo Hua, her brows slightly furrowed.

Mo Hua was a bit speechless, so he gave True Person Hua a look.

Meaning, why are you looking at me? If you have something to say, say it quickly.

I've already calmed the scene for you, why are you still dawdling here?

To think this is still a True Person, he can't even control a group of Foundation Establishment geniuses.

Mo Hua muttered in his heart.

True Person Hua's gaze flickered, but he didn't say much, only saying slowly:

"Bai Bai Zisheng of the White family in the Gan prefecture has some unclear relations with the Great Wilderness demon girl. If left unchecked, it will hinder the Daoist Court's great cause of suppressing the rebellion."

"The purpose of this trip is to capture Bai Bai Zisheng."

"All of you are talents, aristocratic family disciples, with extraordinary aptitude, representing the faces of your families and sects. You should work together to suppress the rebels and serve the Daoist Court. You must not fight privately, damaging the overall situation and bringing shame to your families and sects."

These words were spoken grandly and reasonably.

What's more, Mo Hua was still standing behind True Person Hua.

The group of geniuses present, knowing the stakes, all cupped their hands in salute:

"Yes, True Person."

True Person Hua said faintly: "Disperse, everyone go rest."

But not many people moved.

The gazes of the Ganxue geniuses were still fixed on Mo Hua.

Mo Hua was speechless, waved his hand, and said:

"Disperse first, disperse."

The group of Ganxue geniuses then left full of thoughts, whispering to each other. Once they left, the Dao prefecture geniuses had no one to argue with, so naturally, they dispersed too.

True Person Hua's face was as cold as ice.

Fortunately, he was a True Person, and he still had his composure and cultivation; it was impossible for him to really care about Mo Hua and this group of "geniuses."

Afterward, everyone had to find their own places to rest and recuperate.

Mo Hua also had his own tent.

Just as he walked into his tent, Hua Ping followed him and walked into the tent.

True Person Hua grabbed Hua Ping and asked: "Where are you going?"

Hua Ping pointed at Mo Hua's tent.

True Person Hua took a deep breath and said slowly with patience: "Eldest young lady, this is a military camp, there are many people and ears. Men and women should not touch."

Hua Ping said: "I just want to ask him something, it will be quick..."

True Person Hua's face was already a bit ugly.

Hua Ping knew that her uncle was probably really angry, so she smiled and said to Mo Hua: "I'll come find you when I have time."

Mo Hua said: "I don't have time, don't come."

Hua Ping didn't pay attention to him at all, and followed True Person Hua toward another tent.

Seeing True Person Hua leave, True Person Brother Zhuge looked at Mo Hua with a meaningful gaze, the more he looked, the more he felt Mo Hua didn't look like a normal person, full of indescribable strangeness.

However, there were many people and ears, so True Person Brother Zhuge didn't say much, just glanced at the Hua family's eldest young lady, then looked at Mo Hua, and advised:

"Be careful yourself."

After that, True Person Brother Zhuge left.

Mo Hua walked into the tent and found that it was a single military tent; although the furnishings were simple, it was very clean, and the surroundings had been sealed with formations, quiet and tranquil.

Mo Hua didn't like sleeping in other people's formations.

He dismantled some of the old formations, added a few formations of his own, and then lay down with peace of mind, calculating the changes in the situation ahead.

Since leaving the wilderness, Mo Hua felt that he was meeting more and more acquaintances.

Now, he had seen all these old acquaintances from the Ganxue prefecture, so his Junior Senior Brother was probably not far away...

Perhaps in a few days, he would be able to meet his Junior Senior Brother.

In the military camp, the commotion caused by Mo Hua on the surface gradually subsided.

The disciples of various sects returned to their residences and didn't talk about Mo Hua anymore, and the atmosphere became quiet, but behind the scenes, the torrents surged instantly.

The Slaughter Mo Order.

A message appeared in this token that had been silent for a long time:

"Mo Hua... has appeared!"

It was like a stone causing a thousand layers of waves.

In the alliance order that was originally dead, it was like hot oil dripping into cold water, instantly exploding thousands of messages.

"What?!"

"Mo Hua??!"

"He didn't die?!"

"Ten years, not a single message, didn't enter the Grand Void inner sect, didn't teach in the outer sect, didn't hold a position in Ganxue, and there wasn't a single bit of news about this kid in the major aristocratic families and sects... I thought he was already dead..."

"Your words seem to have deep resentment..."

"Nonsense, I dream of his appearance."

"Where is he now? Where?"

"Great Wilderness..."

"Actually in the Great Wilderness! Good! I happen to be training in the Great Wilderness, give me a location, I'll go find him..."

"What do you want to do?"

"What else can I do? Naturally, go over and kill him. Don't forget, what is our slogan? Slay demons and remove Mo, swear to kill Mo Hua."

"If we don't kill Mo Hua, what is the Slaughter Mo Alliance called?"

Someone said helplessly, "Are you stupid? What year is it now? Ten years have passed, you have already graduated. This is not the sword debate assembly. If you dare to kill Mo Hua, do you believe the Grand Void Gate will kill you?"

"Then what to do? Not kill Mo Hua anymore?"

"If we don't kill Mo Hua, what is the Slaughter Mo Alliance left for? Might as well disband early?"

"It's not that we don't kill, it's slow killing, killing with a plan..."

"Come come come... tell me, how to kill slowly, how to kill with a plan?"

"This kid Mo Hua is as cunning as a ghost. To kill him, we must catch him off guard and strike hard. If we are even a little slow and let him react, all of us added together might not be able to handle his tricks..."

"How unreasonable, you dare to grow the ambition of the Mo thief and destroy our own prestige..."

"Speaking so tough, haven't you been played by Mo Hua?"

"I... I..." This person couldn't speak.

Someone else said: "Speaking of which, what does Mo Hua look like now? Haven't seen him for a long time, I'm quite curious..."

"What else could he look like? Just the same, eyes like stars, eyebrows like a painting, red lips and white teeth... quite annoying..."

"Cultivation realm?"

"Foundation Establishment peak."

"What magic treasure did he cultivate?"

"Who knows, no one has fought him..."

"Looking at it, it's quite ordinary, his aura is much more restrained, he looks like an ordinary boy..."

"Ordinary boy? Don't be fooled by him, don't forget how terrifying this kid was at the sword debate assembly ten years ago."

"He is used to pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, usually not showing his skills, hiding his abilities very deep. If you really underestimate him, you'll die without knowing how..."

Everyone's heart tightened.

Some disagreed, "As the saying goes, early bloomers don't necessarily grow well."

"This kid, when he was in the sect, relied on some crooked means to lead the way, but this is ultimately a small path. Once he passed that age and graduated from the sect, seeking a greater Dao, he couldn't use his schemes anymore, and he revealed his true colors."

"So now, he is 'merged into the crowd'?"

"Only saw him once, who knows?"

"Speaking of which... I don't know what he has experienced in these ten years..."

"Maybe he tried hard to form a core, but failed?"

"It's not impossible..."

"Then he came to the Great Wilderness... I guess like us, he is plotting... that?"

"Otherwise? With this kid's cunning, how could he not know what we all know?"

"You can underestimate his spirit roots, underestimate his cultivation, underestimate his height, but don't underestimate his tricky mind..."

"What about Bai Bai Zisheng? Does he also want to capture Bai Bai Zisheng?"

"What does he want to capture Bai Bai Zisheng for?"

"Does he have a grudge against Bai Bai Zisheng?"

"I guess he's also thinking about suppressing us, or capturing Bai Bai Zisheng to make a contribution and curry favor with the Hua family?"

"Curry favor with the Hua family?"

"That's right, did you see that Hua family woman during the day? The one in gold-threaded clothes, very beautiful, said to be the eldest young lady of the Hua family's direct line."

"Mo Hua standing beside her, I guess he wants to capture Bai Bai Zisheng, show off, and curry favor with the Hua family's eldest young lady, so he can marry into the family later."

"So that's it..."

"So that's it... fart, is this something Mo Hua would do?"

"Are you underestimating him too much?"

"Hard to say, young and frivolous, always feeling the world is vast... but after failing to form a core and hitting a wall, he realized that fate is cruel and ultimately not under his own control."

"His little talent is really not worth mentioning in front of the millions of years of accumulation of a real aristocratic family."

"Since that's the case, might as well marry into the family and eat soft rice."

"You're thinking too much... that's the Hua family, even if Mo Hua wants to marry in, others might not look down on him."

"And that Miss Hua has a noble temperament and is indeed very beautiful. If he could marry in, it would really be an enviable beautiful thing..."

"No wonder Mo Hua was standing behind True Person Hua today, it turns out he wanted to hug the Hua family's thigh..."

"Sigh, the reality of the cultivation world is so cruel. Mo Hua, this little demon king who was once so lawless, now also knows how to bow his head to aristocratic families and curry favor with the Hua family."

"Growth is always accompanied by worldliness..."

Someone said unhappily: "You guys only dare to gossip about Mo Hua behind his back. When facing him, why don't you dare to say a word?"

"Fart, who said I don't dare? One day, when facing Mo Hua, I'll scold him for you to see."

"Good, leave your name, let everyone witness it."

"I don't change my name, I don't change my surname, genius of the Daluo Sect, Ye Ye Zhiyuan..."

Before he finished speaking, another person in the Slaughter Mo Order said angrily:

"You fart, I am Ye Ye Zhiyuan! You don't think I'm not in the Slaughter Mo Alliance, right?"

"You use my name to provoke Mo Hua, what is your intention? Do you want to kill me?"

They were arguing over there, while others couldn't hold back:

"I said, report the location, report the location quickly!"

"Tell me quickly, where is Mo Hua, where in the Great Wilderness, I'll resign from my post tonight and rush over overnight!"

"Quick! Don't make me anxious!"

"Yes, report the location quickly, I'm going too..."

Someone reported a location: "Great Wilderness Royal Court territory, two thousand miles southwest, second-grade Qianrong mountain boundary, Daoist army 'Lie' character camp..."

"For real?"

"For real."

"Good, I'm going over right now..." This person stopped talking, seemingly going to pack his bags.

Others seeing this, their expressions were shocked: "This works too? Good, I'm also going to 'resign' now, I won't be this commander anymore..."

"No... if you guys keep going like this, I'm going to resign too."

"Not doing it anymore, going to kill Mo Hua."

"Good, let's all resign together..."

"A little military contribution, compared to the merit of slaughtering Mo, what is it worth mentioning?"

"Well said!"

"Going to kill Mo Hua!"

So in the dark night, resignation letters rose, and many genius disciples didn't care, jumped on warhorses, and rushed toward Mo Hua overnight.

In the military camp.

Mo Hua, who was drawing formations, couldn't help but sneeze, muttering in his heart: "Who is thinking of me?"

He thought for a moment, had no clue, and simply buried his head to continue studying formations.

The next day, it was calm.

The Ganxue geniuses didn't greet Mo Hua either, and they were at peace with each other. Mo Hua was busy and had to compile the straw dog, so he didn't meet them.

But two days later, in the middle of the night, someone knocked on his tent door again, looking sneaky.

Mo Hua was a bit vigilant.

The person outside the door said: "Mo Hua, it's me."

It was a man's voice.

Mo Hua then felt relieved.

In the middle of the night, if a woman knocks on the door, she mostly wants to harm you.

If a man knocks on the door, it's mostly for real business.

Mo Hua removed the formation, lifted the tent door, saw the person, and his expression was stunned. "Song Situ Jian?"

Ten years later, Song Situ Jian was taller, and his temperament was more stable; he seemed to have more of the appearance of a "Senior Brother" of the Duanjin Gate.

Song Situ Jian saw Mo Hua, his eyes also lit up, feeling both relieved and emotional. "Long time no see..."

Mo Hua nodded, let Song Situ Jian into the room, and asked:

"Why are you here?"

He didn't seem to have seen Song Situ Jian in the crowd in the main tent earlier.

Song Situ Jian said: "I just arrived."

Mo Hua was surprised. "Just arrived?"

Song Situ Jian said: "Not just me, I reckon there are many others who got the news and all rushed toward you."

Mo Hua was stunned. "Rushed toward me? Why?"

Song Situ Jian's expression was subtle, thinking to himself, why, don't you know yourself?

What you have done to others, don't you have a count in your heart?

Mo Hua had actually forgotten a bit.

The things in Ganxue were already a bit distant, and plus his divinity had shattered once, and his humanity had faded, so some things were indeed a bit blurry.

Mo Hua thought carefully and suddenly didn't dare to believe it:

"Is my popularity really that good?"

Song Situ Jian was a bit speechless, but time was tight and there was no time for a detailed chat, so he said: "Do you have any grievances with that... Bai Bai Zisheng of the White family?"

Mo Hua shook his head. "No."

That was his Junior Senior Brother, what grievances could he have?

Afterward, Mo Hua asked strangely: "Why ask this?"

Song Situ Jian asked according to his inertial thinking.

After all, if the entire batch of Ganxue disciples didn't have some grievances and hatred with Mo Hua, they wouldn't be worthy of being called geniuses, and they wouldn't be able to mix into a "circle."

The biggest common language in their "circle" was discussing how to kill Mo Hua.

However, Song Situ Jian couldn't say this kind of thing in too much detail.

This wasn't the point either.

"It's good that there are no grievances..." Song Situ Jian pondered for a moment, then asked with a serious expression, "Then, Senior Brother Mo, are you also planning to go to the Great Wilderness Royal Court?"

Mo Hua didn't quite understand why Song Situ Jian suddenly asked this.

But since he asked, Mo Hua thought for a moment and nodded. "If there is a chance, I will definitely go there."

Song Situ Jian nodded. "I understand. I came to remind you that I reckon many people will come for you."

"I can't say much about other things, anyway, be careful yourself."

"And..."

Song Situ Jian's gaze darkened, and he sighed lightly, "I am now in the Duanjin Gate, and my status is quite high, maybe some things, I can't..."

Song Situ Jian looked at Mo Hua, containing some apologies.

"It's fine," Mo Hua expressed deep understanding. "You do what you should do. But if you encounter problems that you can't solve, you can come find me. Essentially, we help each other and share information; you are not my follower, so you don't have to act according to my wishes if there is no real benefit."

"After all, you are a Senior Brother of the Duanjin Gate, you have to think about your own future first..."

"If one day, you really want to kill me, just tell me in advance..."

Mo Hua said indifferently.

He said this as if he were saying, if it really rains tomorrow, just tell me in advance.

Song Situ Jian didn't know why, but his mood was complex, mixed with admiration and inexplicable emotion.

He nodded and said solemnly: "Good, take care."

Mo Hua also nodded. "Mm."

The two finished chatting simply, and Song Situ Jian left, his figure disappearing into the dark night.

There was no one else around.

Mo Hua could guess that True Person Hua and True Person Brother Zhuge should know that Song Situ Jian had been here, but they didn't know the inside story of Ganxue, so they probably just thought Song Situ Jian came to "visit" and catch up.

As for what exactly was said, True Persons have their own dignity and wouldn't eavesdrop casually.

Of course, if they really eavesdropped, Mo Hua could actually detect it.

After Song Situ Jian left, in the following days, there were indeed "newcomers" coming one after another.

The first thing these people did when they came was to look at Mo Hua.

Those who knew could see they were locking onto their "enemy."

Those who didn't know thought they were little Junior Brothers from some sect coming to pay their respects to their "Senior Brother."

And the matter of investigating Bai Bai Zisheng was still continuing.

Just like this, three more days passed.

Suddenly, there were definite traces of Bai Bai Zisheng.

During these days, Bai Bai Zisheng had been besieged and intercepted repeatedly, and was finally trapped in a remote valley in another second-grade mountain boundary a few hundred miles away.

The situation was urgent, and the opportunity was fleeting. True Person Hua didn't delay, immediately mobilized manpower, and began to launch a siege on Bai Bai Zisheng.

Most of the geniuses went, and Mo Hua also mixed into the crowd.

Without anyone knowing the inside story, Mo Hua began to participate in the "arrest" of his Junior Senior Brother with full expectation.
