"Protector Xing was severely injured, and the Green Cloud Stronghold Lord Shen Baiqi was killed..." Sang Yiping said anxiously.

"What?" Mo Wuji's expression changed. "Where is Protector Xing? Who did it? Could it be that extraterritorial cultivators have invaded again?"

Xing Huang's strength was in the True God Realm, yet he was severely injured? Not to mention Xing Huang, even Shen Baiqi's strength was definitely not low, most likely also in the True God Realm. How could he be killed?

Sang Yiping took a breath and continued anxiously, "A strong cultivator from the True Lake Continent has arrived. His name is Gu Qi, a Mortal Immortal King. He came and directly demanded that you go and see him."

Mo Wuji gasped. What he feared most was the arrival of strong cultivators from the True Lake Continent, and it had indeed happened. Unfortunately, after two years of closed-door cultivation, he had only advanced from the second level of the Essence Core to the tenth level. He was still hundreds of thousands of miles away from becoming a Human Immortal.

"Since he's looking for me, it's understandable that he injured Protector Xing, but why was Shen Baiqi killed?" Mo Wuji calmed down.

Pu Qian sighed, "Shen Baiqi was betrayed by someone from Green Cloud Stronghold. I heard he possessed a wordless Alchemy Tome. Gu Qi directly forced Stronghold Lord Shen to hand over the wordless Alchemy Tome. Stronghold Lord Shen refused and was easily killed by Gu Qi. Even his storage ring was taken."

"Who knew that Shen Baiqi had a wordless Alchemy Tome?" Mo Wuji's tone carried a hint of killing intent. No matter how much he didn't want to interact with Shen Baiqi, he was still Shen Lian's father. He couldn't let it go that Shen Lian's father was betrayed and even killed.

"I heard it was a man named Wu Jingwu. He's Shen Baiqi's adopted son. It's said that his father, Wu Wu, and Shen Baiqi were sworn brothers. After Wu Wu disappeared, Shen Baiqi adopted Wu Jingwu. This time, Wu Jingwu betrayed Shen Baiqi but was noticed by the strong cultivator from the True Lake Continent, who will probably take him to the True Lake Continent." Sang Yiping replied.

Immediately, an image of a man with a long face and narrow eyes appeared in Mo Wuji's mind. He had seen this guy once at the Longluo Immortal Ascension Assembly. If Shen Lian hadn't threatened him not to report him for injuring people in the Immortal Ascension Assembly Square, he and Yan'er wouldn't have escaped that time.

Mo Wuji immediately said, "Pu Qian, go take care of Protector Xing immediately, then stall the people from the True Lake Continent. Tell them I'll be there soon."

"Sect Leader, you must not go to Five Elements Domain City. If you go, you'll definitely not return," Sang Yiping said urgently.

Mo Wuji said calmly, "Even if I don't return, I have to go because I am the Alliance Master of the Hundred Sect Alliance."

Sang Yiping opened her mouth but didn't say anything else. If the Alliance Master of the Hundred Sect Alliance hid when something happened, he would be a useless Alliance Master.

Perhaps hiding was the best solution, but that wasn't him, Mo Wuji. Countless cultivators supported him, Mo Wuji, as the Alliance Master of the Hundred Sect Alliance, not because he was the Sect Leader of the Heaven's Secret Sect, but because he was Loose Cultivator 2705. A loose cultivator who never feared, a loose cultivator who spoke with action.

...

Five Elements Domain City.

In the main hall on the first floor of the Hundred Sect Alliance Building.

Jiang Xiushan and Feng Zhenqiu and others had pale faces. Xing Huang was covered in blood, lying under a pillar in the middle of the Hundred Sect Alliance Hall, his life unknown.

Two feet away from Xing Huang, a headless corpse lay there, the Green Cloud Stronghold Lord Shen Baiqi.

Sitting at the head of the hall was a man without eyebrows. The man's eyes were lowered, as if nothing was within his concern.

On either side of the browless man stood three or four cultivators.

"I'll give you another half an hour. If that Loose Cultivator 2705 does not appear here, I will immediately kill everyone in this place," the browless man said suddenly, his tone as if from the distant void.

"Senior, it takes at least two hours to come from the Heaven's Secret Sect. We have already notified him and believe he will arrive soon. Please be patient and wait a while," Feng Zhenqiu said, bowing.

In fact, because Mo Wuji was the Sect Leader of the Hundred Sect Alliance, there was a teleportation array from the Heaven's Secret Sect to Asking Heaven City, and also to Five Elements Domain City. It only took half an incense stick to get here from the Heaven's Secret Sect. He said two hours hoping that Mo Wuji would have some preparation.

He was filled with helplessness. Since Mo Wuji became the Alliance Master of the Hundred Sect Alliance, the Hundred Sect Alliance had developed rapidly under his established methods. The facts also proved that Mo Wuji's methods were very correct, and the strength of the cultivators in the Lost Continent generally improved.

But facing a true powerhouse, he realized that the Lost Continent was still the same Lost Continent as before.

"I'll give you two hours. If I don't see him after two hours, I will kill everyone," the browless man said coldly. He had calculated that Mo Wuji would not escape but would come here.

...

Asking Heaven Academy.

A young cultivator blocked Mo Wuji's path, "Entering Asking Heaven Academy without permission is punishable by death."

Mo Wuji didn't barge in, taking out a jade token and saying, "I am the Alliance Master of the Hundred Sect Alliance. I have urgent matters to seek Linglong of the Pill Tower."

"Alliance Master Mo..." Although this cultivator had not been to Five Elements Domain City, he had heard of Mo Wuji's great name long ago. He was once a disciple of the outer peak of Asking Heaven Academy, who rose to the top of the Hundred Sect Alliance contribution point list as a Loose Cultivator 2705. Not only that, two years ago, he surpassed the sect leaders of the major quasi-heavenly sects and became the Alliance Master of the Hundred Sect Alliance as the Sect Leader of the Heaven's Secret Sect.

Knowing it was Mo Wuji, the Asking Heaven Academy cultivator immediately put away his killing intent and quickly bowed, "Alliance Master Mo, I would very much like to let you enter Asking Heaven Academy, but you are not a member of Asking Heaven Academy now, which makes it difficult for this disciple..."

"Let him in. I'll be responsible for anything," an abrupt voice interrupted the disciple.

"Uncle-Master Jinwen?" The disciple recognized the person and quickly bowed.

The person was Shi Jinwen. He nodded to the disciple and said to Mo Wuji, "Thank you for saving me once. If you are looking for my master, then you may have made a wasted trip. My master has not returned since the extraterritorial war."

Linglong Granny had not returned yet. Mo Wuji frowned. He saved Linglong Granny, so he naturally knew that Linglong Granny was fine. With Linglong's True God Realm cultivation, even if she hadn't returned, she shouldn't have any major problems. Thinking of this, Mo Wuji didn't continue to think about Linglong Granny's affairs.

"Pill Master Jinwen, I have some matters to attend to at Asking Heaven Academy, and I don't necessarily need to see Linglong Granny," Mo Wuji said, cupping his fists.

He didn't come here for Linglong Granny, but when that cultivator blocked his way, he had to find an excuse to enter.

"Go ahead. Dean Feng said that Asking Heaven Academy is your home, no matter what," Shi Jinwen replied.

Mo Wuji was the Alliance Master of the Hundred Sect Alliance, whose status was much higher than hers as a Pill Tower pill master.

"Thank you," Mo Wuji said, and his figure flashed into Asking Heaven Academy. He was still grateful to Feng Zhenqiu. If Feng Zhenqiu hadn't publicly said that, he might not have been able to enter today.

In less than half an incense stick, Mo Wuji arrived at the edge of the deep ravine where the Pill Tower was located.

When Mo Wuji saw the white-bearded old man still sitting by the deep ravine, fishing, he breathed a sigh of relief and quickly bowed, "Mo Wuji greets senior."

The white-bearded old man chuckled, pulling his fishing hook, and another colorless, transparent small fish appeared. A trace of excitement appeared in the old man's eyes, and he quickly put the small fish into the wooden bucket next to him.

After doing all this, he turned to look at Mo Wuji and said, "Not bad, not bad. Your luck is very good. Every time you come here, you bring me a harvest. Tell me, what are you looking for me for?"

Mo Wuji bowed again, "Junior wants to ask Senior to help me once. Please, for the sake of us both being from the same sect..."

"Stop," the white-bearded old man directly stopped Mo Wuji, stood up, and looked Mo Wuji up and down, "These guys are so stupid, they only came after two years. Idiots, idiots..."

Mo Wuji looked at the white-bearded old man with some doubt. He didn't understand what the old man meant.

The white-bearded old man snorted, "Is it that strong cultivators from the True Lake Continent have come? They want to settle the score with you, and then you came to me for help, right?"

Mo Wuji quickly said, "That's right, how did Senior know?"

"Hehe!" The white-bearded old man chuckled, "I've been waiting for this day for a long time. These guys are so stupid, they clearly knew that the monkey's ass died in your hands, yet they only came after two years."

Mo Wuji already understood what the white-bearded old man meant. This guy thought the people from the True Lake Continent had come late, so he immediately said, "Senior, that's not fair. That monkey's ass clearly died in your hands. I don't have the strength to kill him..."

Before he could finish speaking, Mo Wuji couldn't continue. He remembered that Zeng Houyi was really killed by him. This white-bearded old man only severely injured and crippled Zeng Houyi, then ran away after snatching the things. In the end, he killed Zeng Houyi and even found a place to dispose of the body.

The white-bearded old man looked at Mo Wuji triumphantly, "Why aren't you talking? Did he die in my hands or in yours?"

Mo Wuji looked at the old guy speechlessly. This guy seemed to not care about anything, but he was as cunning as a monkey. It was estimated that he deliberately let the people from the True Lake Continent know that he killed Zeng Houyi and then destroyed the scene. No wonder he asked this guy why he didn't stop the strong cultivators from the True Lake Continent from investigating, and the old man said, "It's none of my business." It turned out that this old man was already waiting for this day.

"Since everything is within Senior's calculations, then please tell me why you want to scheme against me? What do I need to do to get Senior to help me this time?" After knowing that the old man had schemed against him, Mo Wuji decided to negotiate a deal.
