Chapter 115

Mu You grabbed Hong Zun's hand and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Hong Zun also smiled slightly.

"What, you have some now?"

"Junior Brother just remembered incorrectly. It seems there are still a few left."

Mu You laughed sheepishly, while in his heart, he was cordially greeting Hong Zun's ancestors for eighteen generations. He had long heard that the disciples of Divine Sword Peak were despicable and their hearts were filthy.

Now it seemed that Hong Zun, as the Peak Master, was even worse.

But he was curious: how did this old thing know so many things?

Not only did he know about his refining of the Bone-Burial Pills, but he even knew about the matter with Yao Mei.

This was completely having him cornered.

Looking at Mu You's sincere eyes, Hong Zun nodded with a smile.

"Then Junior Brother, go get them. I only need two."

"Alright, alright, Brother, please wait a moment."

Saying this, Mu You hurried away. Watching his back, Hong Zun's smile became even brighter.

Junior Brother, oh Junior Brother, with these secrets, won't I have you under my thumb for a lifetime?

Soon, Mu You brought the Bone-Burial Pills. Satisfied, Hong Zun put them away and didn't linger; he left quickly.

Escorting him all the way outside the cave, Mu You said with a smile.

"Safe travels, Brother."

His face was smiling, but in his heart, he couldn't help but curse. This old thing was simply too insidious.

Returning to Divine Sword Peak, Qing Shi greeted him immediately.

"How was it?"

"With me on the job, it was a piece of cake. The Bone-Burial Pills are in hand; the rest is up to you."

"Don't worry."

Seeing that Hong Zun had successfully obtained the Bone-Burial Pills, Qing Shi also wore a smile.

They didn't leave under the cover of night, but waited until the next morning, when Hong Zun gathered the elders of Divine Sword Peak to announce his seclusion.

Recently, Second Senior Brother Shi Song had been keeping a close eye on him. If he left the sect suddenly without any reason, it would definitely attract the attention of that old thing.

Therefore, Hong Zun and Qing Shi planned to leave the sect quietly, announcing to the outside world that they were in seclusion.

Once the formation was activated, no one would notice.

To this, the elders nodded listlessly.

They had been having a hard time lately; with the boy Changqing gone, the entire Divine Sword Peak was lifeless.

Leaving the main hall, the elders sighed.

"Sigh, this year is going to be hard."

"Who's to say it isn't? Even the Peak Master and the Great Elder are planning to go into seclusion."

"Why don't we go into seclusion too? Improving our cultivation might take our minds off things."

"I think that's a good idea."

The elders thought that Hong Zun and Qing Shi were going into seclusion because Changqing wasn't there, they couldn't eat, and in their agitation, they simply chose to seclude themselves.

This was a good method, and the elders immediately decided to go into seclusion as well.

Anyway, without food, what else could they do but seclude themselves?

But they didn't realize at all that Hong Zun and Qing Shi weren't really going into seclusion, but were preparing to go to the Near-Sea Camp for a feast.

As for them, they were truly going into seclusion in misery.

Within a day, Hong Zun and Qing Shi announced their seclusion, and by noon, the elders of Divine Sword Peak also announced their seclusion.

By the afternoon, the deacons of Divine Sword Peak had also gone into seclusion.

"The Peak Master and the elders have all gone into seclusion?"

"Let's go into seclusion too."

"Seclude, seclude, seclude! Damn it, I've been craving food these past few days. Just thinking about having to endure another year makes my heart ache."

"Why can't I be a few hundred years younger? Those little brats get to go to the Near-Sea Camp to eat and drink, leaving us old men here."

"Stop talking about useless things. Let's go into seclusion."

"If the boy Changqing doesn't return to the sect, I swear I won't come out of seclusion."

"Right, if the boy Changqing doesn't return, we won't come out."

In an instant, the entire Divine Sword Peak, save for the elders and deacons, went into collective seclusion.

At the Law Enforcement Hall, Shi Song was handling official business when a deacon suddenly came to report.

"Hall Master, something has happened at Divine Sword Peak."

Hearing it was Divine Sword Peak, Shi Song frowned, saying with displeasure.

"What is it now? The disciples have all gone to the Near-Sea Camp, leaving only those old guys, and they still can't keep things quiet?"

As long as it concerned Divine Sword Peak, Shi Song felt it was never anything good.

This Divine Sword Peak was truly the lifelong nemesis of their Law Enforcement Hall.

"Everyone at Divine Sword Peak has gone into seclusion."

Everyone going into seclusion at the same time was indeed unusual, but Shi Song's requirements for Divine Sword Peak had already been lowered repeatedly, so he sighed in relief and said.

"Let them seclude themselves. As long as it doesn't involve other peaks, they can do whatever they want."

He only asked that Divine Sword Peak handle their own affairs and not involve other peaks; Shi Song's Law Enforcement Hall couldn't be bothered to care.

"Yes."

Soon, night fell. On Divine Sword Peak, two black shadows flashed by, their speed reaching the extreme.

With Hong Zun and Qing Shi's cultivation, leaving the sect quietly was not a difficult task.

Plus, since everyone thought they were in seclusion, the two of them flew out of the Dao One Sect with ease.

Heading towards the direction of the Array Sect, Hong Zun asked Qing Shi casually on the way.

"Can you handle the Array Sect?"

"I should be able to, right?"

Qing Shi replied with some lack of confidence. Hearing this, Hong Zun frowned immediately. You didn't say that before, damn it.

Back at the sect, Qing Shi had patted his chest until it was bruised, repeatedly saying it was a piece of cake.

Now that they were out of the sect, why had his tone changed?

"Don't mess with me. Can you do it or not?"

"Uh, should, perhaps, maybe it's no problem."

"Damn it, are you playing with me? What do you mean 'should'? I've already gotten the Bone-Burial Pills, and you're dropping the ball now?"

Hong Zun really didn't know anyone from the Array Sect; otherwise, he wouldn't want to waste words with such an unreliable old guy.

Seeing that Hong Zun was truly anxious, Qing Shi said sheepishly.

"It's just that I had some unpleasantness with the Array Sect in the past, but it's nothing major. Sigh, don't worry, I'll definitely get the Heaven-Annihilating Array matter sorted for you. After all, I want to eat too."

Some minor unpleasantness? Hearing this, Hong Zun looked at him suspiciously, feeling uneasy.

This old guy's words were inconsistent; who knew what his "minor matter" really was.

But there was no other way for now, so they had to go to the Array Sect and see.

Flying all the way, with their speed, they reached the Array Sect in one day.

"That's the Array Sect ahead. Do you really have any certainty?"

"Don't worry."

As they spoke, they flew toward the Array Sect. But just as they entered, the Array Sect disciples below suddenly shouted.

"Damn it, he's here again!"

"Quick, notify the Sect Master and the elders!"

In an instant, a loud bell rang out from within the Array Sect. Hearing this sound, Hong Zun's expression changed. This was the bell rung only when something major happened to the sect, right?

Turning his head to look at Qing Shi with a gloomy expression, he gritted his teeth and said.

"What's going on with this Array Sect? Why do they react so strongly as soon as we arrive?"

"It's nothing, nothing. Just some unpleasantness from the past."

Qing Shi gave a vague explanation.
