Chapter 1055: Tian Du Men, Wu Mie Zhenren
Tian Du Men.
Bai Hang met her master again; her master was the Second Elder of Tian Du Men, named Wu Mie Zhenren, one of Tian Du Men's top experts and one of its leaders, holding certain authority in Tian Du Men, an indispensable person of Tian Du Men.
Wu Mie Zhenren was a stern and meticulous woman; her eyes fixed on the disciple before her, revealing no joy, anger, sorrow, or pleasure, she slowly said: "Disciple, is there nothing you wish to tell your master?"
"You have been in the Mangshan Mountain Range for a year; the disciples I sent out could not sense your presence, nor determine whether you were alive or dead. If it weren't for your soul tablet kept in the sect, confirming you still live, I might have gone to the Mangshan Demon Palace with my sword."
"There is also no news of you from the Mangshan Demon Palace; where exactly did you go?"
Previously, Wu Mie Zhenren would not ask this question; here only the two of us, master and disciple, exist, so we must clarify what needs to be clarified.
Bai Hang's expression stiffened; her body obviously froze for a moment, she lifted her head and met her master's gaze. After just a few breaths, Bai Hang yielded, knowing it would be this way—before her master she had no secrets to speak, yet she could not speak.
The restrictions within her body, she discovered after returning; she tried to remove them herself, but found they could not be undone nor touched—if forcibly touched, those restrictions would explode outright, leaving her dead without a whole corpse.
"Master, I don't know where to begin; look at my body and you will naturally understand."
Wu Mie Zhenren reached out and pressed her hand on Bai Hang's shoulder; upon seeing this, her brows furrowed tightly.
Her gaze gradually grew stern; eventually her whole face tightened, and she drew a sharp breath.
"Hiss."
These restrictions are overly complex; likely a formation master from the sect acted, yet they cannot be resolved. Disciple, what exactly have you encountered? Yi Yi Shi, speak it out, and I will see who dares to imprison my disciple, Wu Mie Zhenren.
As for the Mu Long Family, Wu Mie Zhenren personally went to demand recompense, naturally receiving compensation.
The disciples of the Mu Long Family within the sect were all slaughtered, none left.
This is Tian Du Men's warning, letting those restless forces know to behave and not provoke Tian Du Men.
At this time, without ruthlessness, one cannot establish a foothold in Cangzhou.
"Master, can you not undo these restrictions either?" Bai Hang's last hope was her master; if even the master could not undo them, then what?
Realizing this, Bai Hang broke out in cold sweat, afraid to speak.
Wu Mie Zhenren nodded helplessly: "Yes, disciple, I am not skilled in the way of formations; these formations are high-level and complex, unlike ordinary formations, and are not easy to undo."
"Still, tell me what exactly happened to you, and who did you encounter?"
Bai Hang gazed at her master with a complex expression; in the end, she still told her master.
Her master treated her like a own daughter; when facing difficulties, one naturally turns to the master.
Yi Yi Shi explained clearly, including that she had encountered Qinglong Daoren, paid a huge price, among which the Seven-grade Spirit Fruit Earth Dragon Fruit was also handed over, causing Wu Mie Zhenren to be unable to stay seated.
"What?" Wu Mie Zhenren exclaimed angrily: "Seven-grade Spirit Fruit Earth Dragon Fruit? Disciple, are you certain?"
"Master, I am absolutely certain; otherwise why would Mu Long Hua of the Mu Long Family pursue me relentlessly, even offending our Tian Du Men, just to intercept me?"
"For the Mu Long Family's plan, that is merely his slogan; his true aim is to obtain the Earth Dragon Fruit, then capture the disciple, using this to threaten both Tian Du Men and the Mu Long Family."
"The result was his failure."
Wu Mie Zhenren had no mind to bother with the Mu Long Family; she fixed her gaze on the disciple before her, combining all she had encountered, Wu Mie Zhenren could not gauge Qinglong Daoren's strength, nor that formation—it is not simple.
Being able to let even one's own disciple fail to comprehend it shows that formation is truly very complex.
Mu Long Chen and Mu Long Hua entered the Mangshan Mountain Range, likely heading for those two individuals.
"Master, are you saying that Mu Long Hua and his group have entered the Mangshan Mountain Range?"
"Indeed, not long ago they entered the Mangshan Mountain Range; likely they feared punishment from the Mu Long Family and chose a risky path—going by your words, it seems they face more misfortune than fortune."
Wu Mie Zhenren declared firmly: "That person fortunately only sought wealth; if he had sought anything else, you might not have returned."
Bai Hang bowed and said: "Disciple understands; therefore whatever he wants, I will give, and I dare not delay."
"It is merely an Earth Dragon Fruit, insufficient compared to her life."
"Any treasure is insignificant before one's life."
Wu Mie Zhenren nodded: "This time you did right—preserving the green mountains ensures no lack of firewood; it is merely an Earth Dragon Fruit, give it if given; with your talent, having or lacking the fruit makes no difference, only I have wronged you, disciple."
"Master, I am not wronged," Bai Hang said through clenched teeth.
"Can one not feel wronged in one's heart? How she spent this year, no one knows."
"That place is truly deadly."
"Yet she cannot complain before her master; she knows her master's nature well—she does not like the weak."
"As your master, I know your grievance; you need not deny it. This time, you have worked hard; for the coming years, remain within the sect to cultivate, steady your mind—those restrictions within your body also need not be tended to, since that person does not wish to kill you, leaving those restrictions undisturbed poses no danger."
"Later, I will have someone try; if that truly fails, you can only go ask that person for help."
Bai Hang bowed: "Disciple obeys."
Wu Mie Zhenren waved her hand, letting Bai Hang depart.
After Bai Hang left, Wu Mie Zhenren muttered: "That person is not weak, hiding in the Mangshan Mountain Range; he surely has some scheme—we must uncover his purpose and also learn exactly who he is."
"This person cannot be left unattended; otherwise, future troubles will be endless."
"However."
Wu Mie Zhenren narrowed her eyes, murmuring: "Those who most want him dead now are the Mu Long Family's people, not me, nor Tian Du Men; on the contrary, this person has done me a favor in Tian Du Men, so we cannot treat him as an enemy."
"Make contact slowly, then gradually communicate; if possible, perhaps we can draw this person into the Tian Du Men alliance."
"Perhaps Bai Hang's side can act; that person bears Bai Hang no ill will and did not kill her, indicating he does not wish to provoke Tian Du Men."
"Whoosh, in the future we must find a time to make contact with this person."
The existence of Qinglong Daoren makes her uneasy.
"At the same time, we must also confirm later whether this person poses no danger to Tian Du Men."
"Moreover, her disciple; the restrictions within his body are highly dangerous—if they erupt, the disciple cannot survive, and the entire Tian Du Men will suffer as well, which is not what Wu Mie Zhenren wishes to see."
