Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Xu Zhangqing recalled the Devouring Spirit Mother Worm and Leijin Kui, casually flicked out a Spirit Talisman, and burned all the corpses clean, leaving only a faint charred smell.

Sun Shangxiang was shaken to the core, and softly spoke: "Master..."

She had never imagined that her master, who usually only knew farming, could fight so decisively and cleanly, even with a touch of effortless composure.

Xu Zhangqing put everything he had picked up into his Fangcun Ring, and said with a calm expression: "They were nothing but jumping clowns."

Sun Shangxiang froze for a moment, then frowned and said: "Why did these people attack us?"

Xu Zhangqing looked at the Food Spirit Worm on her shoulder, and only then explained: "They were all sent by the Wu Sheng Chong Mu, wanting to abduct you.

After returning to the sect, you must stay in Hongfeng Valley, and must not go out on your own."

Sun Shangxiang nodded heavily; by now she had long since lost any thought of experience training, then suddenly thought of something, and her face instantly changed: "Master, then what about my parents?"

Xu Zhangqing said seriously: "I'll handle everything!"

……

……

Amidst the churning sea of clouds, Xu Zhangqing's thoughts were myriad.

The Wu Sheng Chong Mu's power was far more vast than he thought; at the bottom it likely controlled a group of Spirit Insect Cultivators whose strength was not weak.

And the tricky part of this matter lay in one being in the open, one in the dark.

The open was us; the dark was the Wu Sheng Chong Mu.

It could strike at any time, and without any scruples.

Looking back at Xu Zhangqing, relying solely on his own strength was insufficient to kill the other party.

Therefore the best method: after returning, first talk with Master, see if we can seek the Immortal Sect's protection, or have the Sect High Level step in to deal with the Wu Sheng Chong Mu.

Not a word the whole way; the two safely arrived at Dongting Immortal Sect.

After returning to Hongfeng Valley, Xu Zhangqing settled Sun Shangxiang properly, had her stay put honestly, and himself went straight to Qingmu Peak.

At this time, the several Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters — those with affairs had affairs, those out on experience training were out on experience training — not many people remained.

Only Fifth Senior Sister Mu Ning and Fourth Senior Brother Gu Qiao.

The former seemed unable to leave Qingmu Peak.

The latter was different; purely did not want to go out.

Mu Ji sat upright; seeing Xu Zhangqing arrive, he slowly opened his eyes and asked: "Weren't you secretly protecting the Disciple?"

Xu Zhangqing cupped his fists in salute: "Master, I've already brought the person back."

Mu Ji let out an "oh", feeling surprise: "Why?"

Xu Zhangqing dared not hesitate, hurriedly told everything that had happened on the Eldest Disciple.

Like the encounter in Qingmang Mountain Range, the Wu Sheng Chong Mu's scheme, and the ambush by Spirit Insect Cultivators on the return journey.

Mu Ji listened, then narrowed his eyes: "The Wu Sheng Chong Mu again?"

Xu Zhangqing keenly caught that word "again", couldn't help stepping forward: "Master, could it be you know something?"

Mu Ji said slowly: "Your Eldest Senior Sister's Clan has met with trouble."

Xu Zhangqing heard this and stared wide-eyed: "What happened?"

Mu Ji said in a deep voice: "Since last time, that is, after you mentioned it, Teacher privately made a trip to Luo River, but discovered the current Bei Clan is a bit strange.

Clan Leader Bei Cangxuan, along with many Core Members, have all vanished without a trace."

The current Bei Family is long since no longer the number one clan of Luo River.

From the original Main Lineage, it has switched to a Branch Family Member handling affairs.

These words spoken, Xu Zhangqing's expression changed slightly: "What happened to the Bei Family?"

Last time he went, he already felt something was off.

First the Bei Clan's overall atmosphere was wrong, then at night he even ran into the Wu Sheng Chong Mu.

In just a few short years it has actually declined to the level of a third-rate cultivation clan — this is too inconceivable.

Mu Ji said seriously: "This matter is full of doubtful points; what lies behind is certainly not simple.

Teacher did not tell Qing Tang; one, afraid of affecting her cultivation; two, this matter is too strange, fearing hidden crisis.

Before the truth is ascertained, letting her know would instead be harmful and not beneficial."

Xu Zhangqing nodded forcefully: "You're right."

Mu Ji's gaze was deep and condensed: "As for your Disciple's matter, it indeed should be properly handled."

Xu Zhangqing's eyes brightened: "Does Master have a way?"

Mu Ji said slowly: "One, have her parents move to reside near the Immortal Sect; no matter how bold the Wu Sheng Chong Mu, it wouldn't dare openly act under the Immortal Sect's eyelids.

Two, have them flee far away, find a place the Wu Sheng Chong Mu cannot reach."

Xu Zhangqing pondered a moment: "This Disciple leans more toward the first; it allows looking after them at any time, and also lets Xiang'er cultivate with peace of mind."

Mu Ji nodded: "Up to you."

Xu Zhangqing probed: "Master, can you request the Sect High Level to act?"

Mu Ji smiled and asked: "You want to request the Sect High Level to deal with the Wu Sheng Chong Mu?"

Xu Zhangqing nodded: "Correct."

Mu Ji waved his hand: "A bit difficult."

Xu Changqing's eyes revealed an unwilling look: "How difficult?"

"Sigh~"

Mu Ji sighed lightly: "The Wu Sheng Chong Mu is no ordinary Evil Cultivator; she has lived for who knows how many years, her foundation is deep not to mention, and she excels at hiding and escaping, moreover she can control a vast Insect Swarm."

Once war breaks out, it will implicate the Entire Tianyuan Realm."

Unless she actively provokes the immortal sects, otherwise we will not easily tear face."

At that kind of realm, one move affects the whole body, there are many considerations."

Xu Changqing agreed: "Indeed."

The higher the realm, the less easily they make a move."

Every move of such an existence indirectly affects the Entire Tianyuan Realm."

As long as the Wu Sheng Chong Mu exists for a day, he will always feel like thorns in his back; this feeling is not good."

After all they are his own disciple and grand-disciple, Mu Ji will not ignore it: "Rest assured, Teacher will report to the High Level, explaining the severity of this matter."

Even if the High Level does not easily make a move, they will find an opportunity to give a warning."

Xu Changqing bowed: "Thank you, Teacher!"

When it comes down to it, it is still that his own strength is not enough."

If his realm were higher, holding Influence, why would he need to rely on others?"

Only pity, although he Awakened the Thunder Spirit Root, his cultivation is stuck at Golden Core Late Stage."

Wanting to Breakthrough, who knows how long he must wait."

Next, the two chatted for A While, then Xu Changqing turned and left, returning to Hongfeng Valley."

Just as he landed, he saw Second Disciple Lin Feng pulling Eldest Disciple Sun Shangxiang chatting."

Lin Feng asked Curiously: "Elder Sister, you came back this fast?"

Sun Shangxiang's cheeks slightly red, vaguely said: "Outside there is no meaning."

Lin Feng although felt strange, but did not ask more, instead in his heart Thoughtful: "Outside... really no meaning?"

Xu Changqing Sees In Eyes, in his heart understood clearly."

Eldest Disciple's heart, currently counts as withdrawn back, short time inside will not Go Out."

But Second Disciple's heart, estimates will drift Outside, just see when he cannot hold back."

At this time, Ruo Qunshuang came forward to ask: "What happened?"

Xu Changqing Yao Yao Tou: "Nothing."

Ruo Qunshuang smilingly said: "Cang Men lived together for decades, whether you have matters in your heart, I can see at a glance."

Xu Changqing Helplessly said: "Nothing, just Xiang'er's family had a bit of trouble."

Ruo Qunshuang did not pursue asking, only said: "If need help, you just Open mouth."

If really cannot, Cang Men just move out everything from the Jiuqu Zong Bao Ku!"
