After Gao Lin finished speaking, a smile appeared on Elder Huoyun’s face. Even a person of his status knew the fierce reputation of the Four Evils of Fog Mountain. Xu Yang didn't meddle in other people’s business, which he thought was handled very well.

"Junior Brother Xu handled it very well, and according to the sect’s rules, no problems can be picked out. But Elder Liu and the Song family won't care about this. They must hate Junior Brother Xu to the bone.

Master, let’s call Junior Brother Xu back. If Elder Liu and the Song family secretly use poison, Junior Brother Xu will be in trouble," Gao Lin said worriedly.

"Call him back for what? This matter just gives this kid some pressure. The road to ascending the dragon is full of thorns. If he can't even carry this matter, he will die sooner or later," Elder Huoyun said.

He sent Xu Yang to Moon Lake to temper him well. If there was a little danger and he called him back, wouldn't that violate his original intention?

"Master, this is Elder Liu and the Song family," Gao Lin reminded.

Two Heaven Origin experts, one was the ancestor of the ten great families of Qingyang City, and one was a Purple Sun Sect elder. You call this thorns? This is simply a mountain of knives and a sea of fire.

"Xu Yang’s approach is impeccable. Liu Xunjiang deserved to die. I will keep an eye on Liu Qingyuan myself, and Song Yushao there won't dare to act rashly. He has a whole family of the Song family. If he dares to move my disciple, I will kill his descendants."

Elder Huoyun waved his hand and didn't continue to explain: "Go and tell the Task Hall the whole process of the matter, and let them send someone else over."

He only needed to ensure that Song Yushao and Liu Qingyuan, these two Heaven Origin experts, didn't take action. He wouldn't care about anything else. If the Song family and Liu Qingyuan secretly sent people to take action, it would just happen to temper Xu Yang.

"By the way, it happens to be the three-month period again. You send the Dragon-Tiger Great Golden Pill to him." Elder Huoyun added.

To temper Xu Yang, resources naturally had to be given in time.

Gao Lin didn't insist anymore after hearing this and soon took Zhou Jiang to the Task Hall, reporting the matter that happened at the Moon Lake mine exactly as it was.

Two deacons died in two months, plus Xu Yang’s fame, the matter soon spread in the Purple Sun Sect.

Heaven Authority Peak!

Liu Qingyuan was full of anger: "What did you say, Xunjiang is dead?"

He had only been sent to Moon Lake for more than a month, and his nephew died?

"Speak, how did he die? Was it done by that little beast Xu Yang?" Killing intent flickered in Liu Qingyuan’s eyes.

Xu Yang was guarding Moon Lake, and he had targeted Xu Yang. Besides Xu Yang, who would kill his nephew, and who could kill his nephew?

And if something happened to the mine, the first to die should be the strongest Xu Yang, not his nephew Liu Xunjiang, who was just a manager.

Xu Yang didn't die, so why did his nephew die?

Disciple He Song said: "According to the news they reported, Senior Brother Liu was killed by the Four Evils of Fog Mountain."

Four Evils of Fog Mountain?

Liu Qingyuan snorted coldly: "The Four Evils of Fog Mountain went to the mine, would they only kill Xunjiang and not Xu Yang? Do you take me for a fool?"

The Four Evils of Fog Mountain were not soft-hearted people. It was impossible that they only killed his nephew and not Xu Yang. There must be a hidden story in this.

"The Four Evils of Fog Mountain didn't go to loot the mine, but to kill Song Wenxuan. They snatched the Four Evils of Fog Mountain’s spirit herb, and Senior Brother Liu let them enter the mine for refuge... The Four Evils of Fog Mountain killed their way in, Xu Yang sat on the sidelines and watched, letting the Four Evils of Fog Mountain kill Senior Brother Liu and Song Wenxuan and the others before leaving."

He Song didn't hide the process he had inquired about and told Liu Qingyuan everything.

"He even harmed Wenxuan to death!" After listening, Liu Qingyuan’s anger grew even more.

Although it wasn't Xu Yang who took action personally, this was no different from Xu Yang taking action personally. If Xu Yang had helped, how could Liu Xunjiang have died at the hands of the Four Evils of Fog Mountain?

"This little beast is clearly holding a grudge because I helped Li Chuyang before, so he stood by and watched Xunjiang be killed by the Four Evils of Fog Mountain. He deserves to die." Liu Qingyuan was filled with grief and indignation.

He didn't care at all that Xu Yang had advised Liu Xunjiang, nor did he care if Xu Yang would have been killed by the Four Evils of Fog Mountain if he had taken action.

He only knew that Xu Yang, as the mine’s guarding expert, watched his nephew be killed by the Four Evils of Fog Mountain.

"Master, should the disciple go to the Law Enforcement Hall to file a complaint, let the people of the Law Enforcement Hall catch him back, and punish him for disregarding sect friendship and dereliction of duty?" He Song asked.

Liu Qingyuan shook his head: "This little beast is extremely shrewd; he did things without any flaws. It’s useless."

Although he was angry, his head was still very clear.

For an ordinary disciple, with his status, even if things were done without any flaws, he could still pursue it.

But with Xu Yang’s talent, Elder Huoyun would definitely not sit by and watch the Law Enforcement Hall mess around. Bringing Xu Yang back would at most be a bit of a squabble, and even if he were punished, it would be some painless punishment.

Fifth on the Top Ten Geniuses list, a genius with hopes of ascending the dragon a second time. Without committing a mistake, even if he harmed his nephew to death, he, an elder, couldn't do anything. The Law Enforcement Hall could only handle it impartially.

Handling it impartially meant Xu Yang was not at fault. The mine was not a sanctuary; it was Liu Xunjiang who brought the disaster upon himself.

What he wanted was for Xu Yang to die and be buried with his nephew!

Keeping Xu Yang at Moon Lake gave him a chance to kill Xu Yang. Bringing Xu Yang back was instead giving Xu Yang protection.

"You go down the mountain immediately and tell the Song family!" Liu Qingyuan said.

One Xu Yang naturally wasn't worth him taking action personally, and Elder Huoyun was probably watching him now, so even if he wanted to take action, there was no chance.

"Yes!"

He Song cupped his hands, turned, and retreated.

The Song family was one of the ten great families of Qingyang City, with a deep foundation and a family heritage of over a hundred years. At its most glorious time, the family once had two or three Heaven Origin experts at the same time.

"Wenxuan!"

Song family head Song Shirong’s voice was desolate, his eyes splitting.

His son Song Wenxuan went to the Yunling Mountain Range to train and actually died.

Although Song Wenxuan wasn't his son with the best talent, he was the one he loved the most and was very much like him when he was young.

"Family Head Song, please restrain your grief!" He Song said in a low voice.

"The Four Evils of Fog Mountain actually dared to kill Third Brother; they simply deserve to die."

Song Shirong’s eldest son, Song Wenshan, had killing intent on his face: "Father, please allow the child to take people into the Yunling Mountain Range and kill the Four Evils of Fog Mountain to avenge Wenxuan and the others."

The Four Evils of Fog Mountain killed Song family young masters and Song family experts. If this feud wasn't avenged, how could the Song family stand in the future?

As the future patriarch of the Song family, he had to personally take people to kill the Four Evils of Fog Mountain.

"The Four Evils of Fog Mountain deserve to die, and this Xu Yang also deserves to die!"

Song Shirong’s eyes were cold: "Wenxuan and the others begged to the mine, yet he didn't take them in, and later stood by and watched the Four Evils of Fog Mountain commit crimes. If he had taken action, how could Wenxuan have died? He is no different from the Four Evils of Fog Mountain who killed Wenxuan."

"He also deserves to die, viewing my Song family as nothing. But Father, he is fifth on the Top Ten Geniuses list. If we kill him, it won't be easy to explain to the Purple Sun Sect," Song Wenshan reminded.

Xu Yang was not an ordinary disciple, but a genius fifth on the Top Ten Geniuses list, deeply loved by Elder Huoyun.

For his sake, Elder Huoyun directly forced the Sect Master and Li Songhe to change the Top Ten Geniuses list in advance.

Even if the Song family was one of the ten great families, they couldn't afford to provoke the Purple Sun Sect.

Song Shirong sneered: "Who said my Song family wants to kill the Purple Sun Sect’s genius? Wenxuan was killed by the Four Evils of Fog Mountain; what does it have to do with Xu Yang?

However, bandits are rampant in the Yunling Mountain Range. If bandits break into the mine to loot ore and kill people, it also has nothing to do with my Song family."

He Song smiled: "Family Head Song is right. The Purple Sun Sect’s genius cannot be killed. However, in a place like the Yunling Mountain Range, there are many accidents, and it is very normal for a genius or two to die."

"I understand!" Song Wenshan cupped his hands.

They couldn't come openly, they could only come secretly. As long as they didn't leave any evidence, with Elder Liu Qingyuan maneuvering in the Purple Sun Sect, there would be no problem.

"You gather the manpower, go find the Four Evils of Fog Mountain first, don't move Xu Yang for now," Song Shirong said.

Although he wanted to kill Xu Yang now, he knew he couldn't be too impatient. If things were done too obviously, Elder Huoyun wasn't a fool either.

They didn't know at all that as long as Heaven Origin experts didn't take action, Elder Huoyun wouldn't care about this matter at all.

Moon Lake!

Living in seclusion for many days, Xu Yang finally consolidated his perfected marrow-cleansing cultivation, the whole body blood-changing ended, and the body entered a normal state.

The heart blood, like mercury, was pushed by the heart to nourish his whole body at all times.

He found that after the cultivation broke through, the cultivation of the Immovable Bright King Body became simpler, and the body-forging speed far exceeded the past.

However, this was not the biggest change in marrow-cleansing. The biggest change in marrow-cleansing was another one—spirituality.

Yes, spirituality!

The rebirth ended, the old blood was replaced by new blood, and he found that his body seemed to have produced spirituality.

This kind of spirituality was very similar to the fluctuations radiated by spirit iron and spirit herbs, but it might be because he had just entered this realm, and this kind of spirituality was difficult to capture.

If it weren't for his powerful mind and cultivated blade intent, he might not have discovered this change.

There was another change—enlightenment.

These few days, besides cultivation, he basically used his time to perceive the nature of heaven and earth.

Although he didn't perceive anything powerful, he found that this kind of perception could increase his mind and restore his mind.

Especially after cultivating the Blood Prison Heart Blade Scripture, this feeling was more obvious. Even if he didn't sleep, the consumed mind could be restored using this method.

"Senior Brother Xu, Senior Brother Zhou is back." Suddenly a disciple reported from outside the gate.

Xu Yang finished his cultivation and walked out of the courtyard, seeing Zhou Jiang following a middle-aged man, walking into the mine.

This middle-aged man was none other than Zhao Qing, who had some relationship with Xu Yang.
