Chapter 108: He’s Here!
Boom!
With the dragon puppet’s strong and powerful claws stomping on the ground, the entire hall seemed to shake.
The shaking ground made these Qi Condensation stage cultivators a little difficult to stabilize their figures. In the crowd, Huang Manting in a black dress and charming posture looked up at the dragon puppet that was waving its four claws, looking ridiculously funny, but its strength was extremely terrifying.
“Everyone, if we continue to hold back, I’m afraid no one will be able to pass Senior Spirit Dragon’s trial today!” She raised her head to look around at everyone, her charming and pleasant voice resounding in this hall.
Those who could enter the Two Polarities Sect might have some disciples with not very good brains, but most people were very smart.
Naturally, they were also clear that if they consumed too much spiritual energy here now, the subsequent trials might have nothing to do with them.
If they lost the opportunity to obtain the destiny inheritance because of such a thing… they would probably regret it for the rest of their lives.
“We can only go all out and repel these two dragon puppets first!”
A sect disciple in the crowd said loudly.
“That’s easy to say, but if someone holds back their strength, no one will know, right?”
As soon as these words came out, while everyone was struggling to resist the spiritual pressure released by the dragon puppets, their eyes flickered, and their thoughts varied.
The sect disciples who could enter the Spirit Dragon’s grotto heaven abode were all geniuses from various places. In terms of strength and talent, they were not weak.
But the problem was that they were only strong among their peers, but in the face of these dragon puppets that seemed to be at the Spirit Refinement stage, especially when everyone was holding back and their hearts were not united, it was naturally difficult to deal with.
Ye Yu dodged the dragon puppet chasing him closely with extremely agile speed, and then suddenly raised his head and said angrily, “In the end, isn’t it still Mu Zhian’s fault? If it weren’t for him, maybe we wouldn’t have such a difficult trial at all!”
In the crowd, Gongsun Cheng turned his head to look at Ye Yu and said, “Young Master Ye, what do you mean by that?”
“Didn’t you see it at that time? The silver-haired woman beside Mu Zhian at that time was Senior Spirit Dragon, right? Maybe our current trial is so difficult because he proposed the idea to Senior Spirit Dragon.”
Ye Yu sneered, “Just now, you also saw that when the Third Prince denounced this trial as unfair and even slandered Mu Zhian, he was immediately kicked out of the hall by Senior Spirit Dragon… Maybe he pleased Senior Spirit Dragon through some method.”
As soon as these words came out, no one in the hall spoke.
Gongsun Cheng’s words indeed made some sense, but they were not foolish enough to be bewitched by a few words.
Gongsun Cheng followed, “Maybe we are just working in vain, and the destiny inheritance has already been taken away by Mu Zhian. It’s not impossible!”
“Young Master Gongsun, this is a bit far-fetched. Senior Spirit Dragon wouldn’t lower herself to play tricks on us juniors and not even leave a single portion of destiny inheritance, right?” Someone in the crowd couldn’t stand it anymore and couldn’t help but chuckle and say.
“Senior Spirit Dragon won’t do this, but it can’t be guaranteed that Mu Zhian hasn’t already found the location where the destiny inheritance is hidden in advance, and then obtained the destiny and left here early.” Some people also agreed with Gongsun Cheng’s words.
“I say everyone, you haven’t even passed the trial yet and you’re thinking about such things. Isn’t it a bit unreasonable?”
At this time, a charming voice suddenly came from the crowd, and many disciples turned their heads to look. It was the young lady of the Morning Glory Chamber of Commerce who had passed the sect assessment with outstanding results, Huang Manting.
“You are not fools. If you give up because of a few casual words, you might as well quit the trial now.”
As Huang Manting spoke, she raised her white hand, and the spiritual energy in her body silently gathered in her palm, blocking in front of her, resisting the spiritual pressure erupted by the dragon puppet.
“Miss Huang is right. What we need to do now is focus on dealing with these two dragon puppets, not start infighting before passing the trial.”
Beside her, a female cultivator’s crisp and sweet voice immediately came. She gazed at Huang Manting’s exquisite side profile, her eyes full of infatuation.
“That’s right. It’s too early to think about such things before even passing the trial.” Then, another cultivator agreed with Huang Manting’s words, and his eyes also involuntarily turned to her.
In just two or three days, Huang Manting already had four or five “followers” beside her, three of whom were female cultivators with quite good looks.
If Mu Zhian were present, he might even applaud and sigh in admiration.
This enchantress’s means of capturing hearts were truly amazing.
At this time, Ye Yu suddenly said, “If we pass the trial and find that the destiny inheritance has already been taken away by Mu Zhian, what should we do then? Wouldn’t we have accompanied Mu Zhian on this trip for nothing?”
“Even if we really pass the trial, if there is only one portion of destiny inheritance at that time, how should it be divided?”
“In the end, isn’t it still because that Mu Zhian took away one portion of the destiny inheritance!” Gongsun Cheng tried to fan the flames in the crowd.
“And maybe the portion of destiny inheritance he took away is the only one in this grotto heaven.”
Huang Manting looked at Ye Yu, and her eyes inadvertently swept over Gongsun Cheng, her beautiful eyebrows slightly frowning.
These two people really wanted Mu Zhian to become the target of public criticism…
However, these sect disciples were not fools. They would only listen to such words.
The sect disciples present were all smart people, and they would not be influenced by a few words to be hostile to Mu Zhian.
Of course, while not being hostile, they also wouldn’t speak up for Mu Zhian.
After all, Mu Zhian had no close relationship with them.
Not offending others, but also not speaking up for others… This was the way of dealing with people for most people.
Huang Manting’s eyes flashed slightly, looking at this scene, and did not continue to speak up for Mu Zhian.
That guy Mu Zhian was indeed beside the Spirit Dragon just now… Maybe he really obtained the destiny inheritance.
Not only existences like Senior Sister Lan, but even the Spirit Dragon was hooked up by him…
Mu Zhian might be much more powerful than I imagined… Huang Manting looked up at the two dragon puppets flapping their wings in midair, but couldn’t help thinking about such things in her heart.
If it were her, she really didn’t have the confidence to treat the Spirit Dragon with a normal heart when seeing her.
After all, that was the Spirit Dragon, an existence that represented the word “destiny” in legends. Who wouldn’t have some bad thoughts and generate the idea of wanting to obtain her overwhelming destiny when seeing her?
And the Spirit Dragon happened to be able to keenly detect the malice of others… In other words, most people would only be directly kicked out of the grotto heaven by her when they saw the Spirit Dragon.
Who knew how Mu Zhian managed to approach her…
This enchantress obviously didn’t know that there was a kind of creature in this world called “LSP”.
Compared to destiny, they cared more about beauties.
Boom!
A sound exploded beside their ears, and everyone suddenly raised their heads to look. They saw the two dragon puppets suddenly let out a shocking roar. They twisted their bodies, emitting incomparable spiritual energy.
Judging from this spiritual energy, their true strength was probably far more than just Spirit Refinement!
At least not early Spirit Refinement!
However, these two dragon puppets did not launch an attack, but instead twisted their bodies and slowly returned to their original guarding positions, as if they were secretly ordered not to move.
The crowd quieted down, and the sect disciples all looked at this scene, their eyes carrying a few traces of surprise.
“What’s going on…?”
“These two dragon puppets… stopped attacking on their own?”
Just as the sect disciples were still looking at this scene in surprise, at the end of this spacious hall, a gentle voice suddenly came floating:
“I only went out for a while, how did it become so lively?”
“It seems I heard someone discussing me just now?”
The crowd turned their heads to look, and saw a young man walking slowly from the depths of that corridor.
He was dressed in a luxurious long robe, with a gentle smile on his face. He swept his gaze over the sect disciples and finally came to them, smiling,
“Sorry for keeping everyone waiting.”
“…Mu Zhian.”
Ye Yu stared at Mu Zhian’s figure and said in a deep voice, “What are you doing here?”
“When I entered the grotto heaven just now, I happened to meet Senior Spirit Dragon. I spent a lot of effort and finally obtained the locations of the two destiny inheritances hidden in this hall from her mouth.” Mu Zhian smiled.
“I’m here to take everyone to the inheritance locations.”
Ye Yu questioned, “Since you know the locations of the destiny inheritances, why don’t you go there yourself?”
“The destiny inheritance is not something that the person who finds it first can possess. It depends on whether one’s personal destiny resonates with it.” Mu Zhian said indifferently.
“If it doesn’t resonate, even Senior Spirit Dragon can’t forcibly bestow the destiny upon you.”
“These words are just your one-sided statement, right?” Gongsun Cheng questioned.
Mu Zhian smiled faintly, “If you don’t believe it, you can go ask the elders in the sect later.”
“However, I have a request for taking everyone there.”
Mu Zhian looked around at everyone and said loudly, “This is the information I obtained from Senior Spirit Dragon’s mouth with great effort, so if we really find the location of the destiny inheritance, I hope to be the first to test and see if I am qualified to possess this destiny.”
Hearing this, everyone nodded one after another.
“Young Master Mu worked so hard for this matter, this is only natural.”
“Even if you obtain a portion of the destiny inheritance, it’s only logical…”
Those people who were more or less jealous of Mu Zhian in their hearts just now, at this time, looking at him, their eyes became much friendlier.
At this moment, Gongsun Cheng suddenly said, “Young Master Mu, how can you prove that the location you take us to is correct?”
Mu Zhian smiled, “If you don’t believe it, get lost.”
If you question it, go find the location where the destiny inheritance is hidden by yourself, okay?
Do I still have to accommodate you?
Seeing Gongsun Cheng’s face that instantly darkened, Mu Zhian ignored it and only cupped his hands towards everyone, smiling, “Everyone, there are a lot of trials set up in this hall, and the trials in many passages are extremely difficult. Even if you pass, there won’t be any destiny inheritance inside.”
“If you trust me, I will take everyone to the location where the destiny inheritance is hidden.”
He paused and smiled, “If you don’t believe it, you can also explore this hall by yourselves, but if you trigger some mechanisms… don’t blame me for not reminding you then.”
These words were quite sincere and made everyone nod one after another, acknowledging Mu Zhian.
Mu Zhian looked at this scene, nodded with a smile and said, “Everyone has just consumed a lot in the battle with those two dragon puppets. Take a moment to rest and then set off.”
After saying that, Mu Zhian found an empty spot and sat down.
“Why do you still have to specially go on stage to lead them to the location of the destiny inheritance?”
At this time, Wei Mengrou’s voice suddenly came from the shadows.
With her Spirit Refinement realm cultivation, she couldn’t enter this hall, but she ignored this rule because of the Spirit Dragon.
Mu Zhian smiled and appreciated these cultivators, secretly comparing which female cultivator had a better figure while sweeping his gaze over them.
At the same time, he transmitted his voice, “This way, it’s more real.”
After all, things obtained through hard work will make people believe.
Moreover, in the world of immortal cultivation, one also needs to pay attention to worldly wisdom.
The disciples who go out from the Two Polarities Sect basically all have good achievements.
Mu Zhian had no interest in making a bunch of enemies for himself.
Others play the lone hero, but he plays the “brotherhood” immortal hero.
Actually, the sect disciples present all knew that Gongsun Cheng and Ye Yu’s words just now were fanning the flames, but they didn’t speak up to defend Mu Zhian.
Because Mu Zhian had no close relationship with them.
But after today, no matter whether these sect disciples obtain the destiny inheritance or not, they will more or less remember this favor.
Suppose someone slanders Mu Zhian in the future, these sect disciples, even if they don’t help to explain, will at least not stand on the opposing side.
This is worldly wisdom.
There is another benefit to taking these sect disciples to “adventure” together…
For example, from the beginning, there were quite a few female cultivators with good looks whose eyes kept glancing at Mu Zhian.
After all, Mu Zhian’s appearance was indeed quite handsome.
Plus, now these sect disciples all had requests for him, which would make many people subconsciously generate the idea of “pleasing”.
Of course, there were many people and eyes now, so no female cultivator specially came up to chat.
But not daring to come up and chat now doesn’t mean that they won’t chat on the way later or in the future in the sect.
Of course, Mu Zhian was a devoted person. Even if some female cultivators pursued him in the future, he wouldn’t rashly agree.
He was not such a casual person.
Mu Zhian sat in front of the empty space, appreciating the high-value appearances of these sect female disciples, and at the same time enjoying the contemptuous gaze from the maidservant beside him, as if looking at an insect.
This maidservant obviously guessed Mu Zhian’s other purpose, so she showed such a “disdainful” expression.
However, Mu Zhian didn’t care about Wei Mengrou’s gaze… After all, she knew him inside out and knew what kind of person her young master was.
If he were facing other girls, Mu Zhian might still pretend and show a gentle posture of a “boy next door”, but when facing Wei Mengrou… there was no need for that.
That would only seem hypocritical. Since Wei Mengrou knew everything anyway, what was the point of pretending?
If he really won her over in the future, he must find an opportunity to say something like “Sister Mengrou, please step on me”… He should be able to enjoy an even more awesome contemptuous gaze.
Mu Zhian felt Wei Mengrou’s gaze and couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.
“If Ye Lingxuan really obtains some inheritance from Senior Lin Ling and her strength greatly improves, aren’t you afraid that you won’t be able to suppress her in the future?” Wei Mengrou suddenly transmitted her voice.
Mu Zhian came back to his senses from his previous thoughts, turned his head to look at Wei Mengrou who was almost hidden in the shadows beside him, and transmitted his voice with a smile, “If everyone’s strength becomes stronger, it will only benefit me and not harm me, right?”
“Not only Lingxuan but also Ruoxi and Qian’er. The stronger they are, the more secure it is for me.”
As for Senior Sister Lan, there’s no need to mention her. She was already very strong… That’s why she was not easy to conquer.
Mu Zhian paused and continued, “It just so happens to take this opportunity to see if Senior Spirit Dragon’s destiny inheritance can lower Sister Mengrou’s bad luck a little.”
Wei Mengrou’s mouth curled up slightly, and she said indifferently, “Forget it, giving it to someone like me will only be a waste.”
“My bad luck probably can’t be offset by just one portion of destiny.”
“If one portion is not enough, then three portions.” Mu Zhian smiled, “No matter how much cost is paid, as long as there is a little effect, it’s worth it to spend the destiny on Sister Mengrou.”
Wei Mengrou looked deeply at Mu Zhian and no longer spoke.
Unknowingly, an incense stick of time had passed.
Mu Zhian no longer chatted with the maidservant, got up and looked around at everyone, smiling, “Everyone, we can almost set off.”
