Return to Liuguangzong

Under Mu Changchun's gaze, Liu Nian no longer hid, and walked out of space with Ling Yueer.

He just looked at the Sun and Moon Golden Wheel with some fervor.

This made Mu Changchun secretly vigilant.

As a Three Tribulation Emperor, he had absolute confidence in his strength.

However, this old man and a girl had been hiding in the dark for an unknown amount of time; if the other party hadn't voluntarily revealed a wisp of Qi, he wouldn't have even noticed them.

Now, with the other party appearing, he couldn't see through any of his cultivation; the other party gave him a feeling like an abyss.

Judging from these two points alone, the other party's strength was extremely extraordinary, possibly even above his own.

This tightened his heart.

He immediately grasped the Sun and Moon Golden Wheel, and looked at them with vigilance, asking:

"Who are you two?"

"What brings you here?"

"Hoo..."

Liu Nian took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.

If it were an ordinary Three Tribulation Emperor holding an Immortal Artifact, for the sake of saving his only son, he would have just taken it!

But this person was clearly not ordinary.

He had said earlier that this Immortal Artifact was given to him by his Revered Master.

To be able to give an Immortal Artifact to a Disciple, it was hard to imagine what level of expert the other party's Revered Master was?

This also made him give up the idea of forcibly taking it.

To save his only son, he could only use gentle methods, never force.

Otherwise, not only would he fail to save the person, but he might even bring great disaster to the Nine Clouds Sect.

With this thought, Liu Nian smiled kindly: "Fellow Daoist, there is no need to be nervous. This old man has absolutely no ill intentions on this trip."

"I have an only son who suffered a Divine Soul injury. I have tried every method possible, but have been unable to heal him."

"Now that I see Fellow Daoist's divine weapon possesses such extraordinary power, capable of bringing the dead back to life, my heart was momentarily overwhelmed with emotion, disturbing Fellow Daoist. I hope Fellow Daoist will not mind!"

Normally, an Emperor Realm expert would not have the qualifications to speak with him as an equal.

But he was now asking for help, so he adopted a very humble posture.

Of course, even so, Mu Changchun did not relax his vigilance in the slightest.

Liu Nian said earnestly: "Fellow Daoist, I truly have no ill intentions!"

"With this old man's cultivation as a Four-Turn Pseudo-Immortal, if I truly wished to harm Fellow Daoist, even if Fellow Daoist had an Immortal Artifact, I fear you would not be my match."

As he spoke, he released his aura, unique to a Four-Turn Pseudo-Immortal's cultivation.

Feeling that terrifying aura, Mu Changchun's expression was startled.

He had thought the newcomer was very strong, but he hadn't expected him to be this strong.

The other party was right.

While an Immortal Artifact could bring him a powerful boost in combat power, with his current control over the Immortal Artifact, it was impossible to bridge the chasm from a Three Tribulation Emperor to a Four-Turn Pseudo-Immortal.

"What do you want?"

Only then did Mu Changchun hide his hostility and ask aloud.

Seeing this, Liu Nian cupped his hands and bowed, saying: "This old man wishes to humbly forge a good relationship with Fellow Daoist on this trip."

"I hope to borrow the Immortal Artifact in Fellow Daoist's hand for a while."

"If Fellow Daoist agrees, in the future, if Fellow Daoist has any needs, this old man will certainly respond within my capabilities!"

"Of course, if Fellow Daoist is not at ease, this old man can swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao, to return it immediately after use. If I violate this oath, may heaven and man punish me, and may my Divine Soul be utterly annihilated."

At this, Mu Changchun hesitated.

By this time, he also saw that the other party indeed had no malicious intent.

He was still very tempted by the other party's proposal.

The favor of a Four-Turn Pseudo-Immortal was very appealing to him.

And the cost was merely borrowing an Immortal Artifact.

However, this Immortal Artifact was given by his Revered Master for self-defense.

If he lent out the Immortal Artifact just like that, it was hard to guarantee that his Revered Master would not be displeased.

He could still distinguish between the favor of a Four-Turn Pseudo-Immortal and his Revered Master's favor, which was more important.

Thinking of this, Mu Changchun said loudly: "This Immortal Artifact was bestowed by my Revered Master, and I dare not easily lend it out."

"Only by reporting to my Revered Master can I give you a reply."

"It should be, it should be!"

Liu Nian nodded repeatedly.

As long as the other party didn't flat-out refuse, it meant there was a chance to borrow this Immortal Artifact.

"Please wait a moment, Fellow Daoist. After I take in this Disciple, I will take you to see my Revered Master."

After Mu Changchun finished speaking to Liu Nian, his gaze went straight to Luo Guan.

"How about it? Are you willing to acknowledge me as your Revered Master now!"

At this moment, Luo Guan felt a chill in his heart.

He was tempted to renege on the previous bet.

But from their conversation, he also knew that the divine weapon in Mu Changchun's hand was actually an Immortal Artifact.

What virtue or ability did he possess to receive a blow from an Immortal Artifact in this life?

At this point, did he still have a choice?

Not to mention that he was no match for Mu Changchun holding an Immortal Artifact, there was also the old man beside him.

If he dared to say no, he would probably be beaten to death on the spot!

"Disciple pays respects to Revered Master!"

After a struggle, he chose to follow his heart.

Thus, the entire Heavenly Evil Sect, including Luo Guan, all became Mu Changchun's Disciples.

After taking in the Disciples, Mu Changchun did not delay.

He immediately led everyone towards the Liuguang Sect.

Along the way, Liu Nian's mood was undoubtedly excited.

For his only son's matter, he had traveled north and south, searching for countless treasures over the years, but had been unable to heal his only son's injury.

Yet, he never expected that while cultivating flowers with intent, they wouldn't bloom, but willow trees would grow without intent.

He had unexpectedly encountered an opportunity to save his only son by chance.

"Liu Yun, no matter what the cost, your father will surely heal you!"

He murmured to himself, his gaze looking into the distance, filled with both warmth and a hint of apprehension.

Someone who could casually give an Immortal Artifact to a Disciple, without even thinking, one would know that his strength must be unfathomable.

He didn't even know what he could use to impress the other party?

On the other side!

Ling Yueer also sensed Liu Nian's mood.

She gently comforted him: "Uncle Liu, don't worry!"

"As long as that Senior expert agrees, no matter what harsh conditions he sets, I will certainly persuade the Sect to help you."

"I believe that with the Nine Clouds Sect's power, we should be able to meet that Senior's needs!"

"Thank you, Saintess!"

Liu Nian looked gratefully at the Saintess.

Ling Yueer shook her head: "If anyone should be thanking, it's Yue'er who should be thanking Uncle Liu!"

"These past years, if not for Uncle Liu's protection, repeatedly saving Yue'er from distress, Yue'er would probably have already met with misfortune."

The group traveled for a day and finally arrived within the Liuguang Sect's territory.

"Sirs, that's my Sect ahead!"

Mu Changchun pointed to a group of large halls in the distance.

This made Liu Nian and Ling Yueer look at each other.

In their opinion, someone who could casually give out an Immortal Artifact was very likely a top-tier existence among Pseudo-Immortals, or even someone who had truly touched the threshold of Immortals!

Such a person's residence should be a rare blessed land in the world.

They hadn't expected it to be a third-rate Sect.

Could it be that this was the true Daoist expert who lived in seclusion in the world?

Liu Nian and Ling Yueer became deeply curious about the Revered Master Mu Changchun spoke of.
