all the way to fairy

Chapter 994 Doubt

Mu Yan recalled how Shao Haoyue often complained to her that he could not fit in with his brothers and sisters in the Phoenix Clan and felt like an outsider.

She thought for a moment and consoled him, "Maybe you are overthinking it. The relationship between people is not only based on blood relationship, but also on how they get along. You have been with them for a shorter time, so they are naturally closer to other brothers and sisters."

"No, for every sentence I say, they have ten more waiting for me. I don't believe that if things are so simple, they won't understand what is the right thing to do. They are just deliberately perfunctory to me!"

Shao Haoyue was so angry, "I don't want to get involved in these trivial matters. If I don't care, Master will say that I don't care about the affairs of the clan. If I care, they won't cooperate, as if these are all insignificant matters!"

"Are we talking about the same thing? Don't you want your whereabouts to be leaked?" Wei Lin was puzzled. How could this be possible?

"Of course I want to check this. I don't want to care about the matter of the Blood Nether Art." At this point, Shao Haoyue suddenly thought of Duoduo. She used her spiritual sense to find no trace of Duoduo. She looked at Mu Yan in surprise, "Where's Duoduo? Didn't she come to see you?"

"Duoduo?!" Mu Yan was startled, then surprised, "You saw Duoduo! How is she now? Is everything alright?"

Hearing this, Shao Haoyue felt a little guilty. He was almost killed by a long fish, so how could he say that nothing happened?

She thought for a moment and told the whole story: "It's fine now, but I was almost killed by the long fish before..."

After hearing her description, Wei Lin immediately said, "There's something wrong with your sister and brother. The Blood Nether Art is a matter of principle for your Phoenix Clan. As long as there's even the slightest possibility, you can't let it go. How can they be so careless?"

I remember that in Jiuliyuan, Shaohao Luo immediately turned his back on everyone when he saw the Blood Nether Art. Even after being provoked by Wen Xueluo, he did not forget to destroy the Blood Nether Art before looking for someone to help him.

How come when he arrived at the Nine-Layered Star Palace, he, who was also a direct descendant of the Phoenix Clan, knew that some people from the Demon Clan were practicing the Blood Nether Art, but not only did he not kill them, he recruited them as spies instead.

This is not right!

Shao Haoyue seemed to have found a soulmate, "Right, I think so too, but they both treat me like a fool."

Past experiences made Mu Yan not easily interrupt the Phoenix Clan's affairs, but asked directly: "So what are you going to do next?"

"I think they are wary of me. I can't do anything about it openly, so let Lian Xiao investigate privately." Shao Haoyue had thought of all this before she came back, but as she spoke, she suddenly remembered that Jiutian Kunpeng and the Phoenix Clan are relatives. In the entire Feather Clan, the power of the Jiutian Kunpeng Clan is second only to the Phoenix Clan.

Moreover, the relationship between the two clans is complicated. As for their direct descendants, many of them have people from the Jiutian Kunpeng clan among their personal guards. The leader of her personal guards appointed by the clan at the beginning was Lian Xiao, a leader from the Jiutian Kunpeng clan.

Letting Lian Xiao investigate this matter would allow for quicker and easier results, but precisely because the relationship is too close, there would be a risk of favoritism.

Mu Yan obviously thought of this, and said tactfully: "Lian Xiao is of noble status, and many people are watching his every move, so why not let Lian Jiang go with him."

"Lian Jiang," Shao Haoyue's tone suddenly dropped a little, "He's dead."

Mu Yan was stunned. "How could it be? Lian Jiang has the cultivation level of a Daluo Jinxian!"

Shao Haoyue pursed her lips. She had not yet understood this matter. When she first heard about it, she naturally thought that it was because of her absence that powerful enemies surrounded her. When the critical moment came, Lian Jiang had to risk his life.

But now, I suddenly have some doubts, why Lianjiang?

He was from the Xuanwu clan, and he also had the blood of the Phoenix, but it was not pure enough. Another thing was that the Xuanwu clan and the Jiutian Kunpeng clan had always been at odds. Was his death related to these? Shao Haoyue's mind was in a mess, and after a while he said, "Lianxue, you go and do this."

"Yes." Lian Xue's voice was heard in the empty yard, followed by a hidden spatial fluctuation.

Perhaps someone was listening and understanding, Shao Haoyue felt that the depression in his heart had dissipated a lot, so he said: "I'm fine, let's go watch the competition."

Wei Lin and Mu Yan nodded, saying that this matter could not be rushed.

As soon as the three of them turned around, they found that a fairy boat had arrived outside. Then, accompanied by an excited voice of "Sister! Sister", a figure rushed towards Mu Yan.

"Sister! I finally get to see you!" Duoduo's tone changed from excitement to grievance, "It's so scary to leave you! Money is so hard to earn!"

When she was with her sisters in the past, she had never felt that it was hard to make money, nor had she ever been short of money. But when she arrived at the Nine-Layered Star Palace alone, she realized that she couldn't even earn enough money for a ticket!

After a long while, she finally expressed her thoughts to Mu Yan and greeted Wei Lin. Then, she saw Shao Haoyue beside Wei Lin and was shocked: "Yun, Sister Yue! Didn't you go to Suzaku City to do some work? Why are you here?"

Shao Haoyue was silent for a moment: "Well, it's done."

"It's really fast." After sighing, Duoduo put aside the matter and took out a bracelet to give to Mu Yan, "Sister, this is a gift I bought for you. The seller said it can withstand the attack of Taiyi Jinxian."

It turned out that he came here just now to buy a gift for Ayan. Shao Haoyue suddenly realized, and then he was puzzled again: "Don't you have no money for this defensive magic weapon?"

Duoduo felt guilty and scratched her forehead. "I don't have enough money to buy a teleportation ticket. Didn't you say that any inter-domain teleportation array I use in the future can be charged to your account?"

"Oh~ So you used the money you saved to buy a present for your sister."

Duoduo felt that what she did was a little bit unfair, and she quietly defended herself: "I only have enough money to buy one."

Shao Haoyue curled her lips and said, "Let's go, let's go."

As she spoke, she stepped out first and saw the Moonlight Swallowtail Butterfly boy standing at the door very nervously. There were two immortal soldiers from Yuecheng beside him. They were obviously the people arranged by Lian Qi to escort Duoduo.

Seeing her, the two immortal soldiers hurriedly saluted: "Your Highness."

Thinking about Lian Xue's departure, Shao Haoyue thought for a moment and said, "Next, the two of you will be responsible for following Mu Yan and protecting her safety."

This time, she did not conceal her appearance and walked to the competition site in Liyuan City. Along the way, everyone who saw her greeted her and made way for her.

They quickly reached Shao Hao Luo's location. When he saw her, Shao Hao Luo was also shocked: "Why are you here? And so ostentatious?"

Shao Haoyue smiled slightly. What she wanted was to show off in public.

"How's the competition going here?" she asked.

"It's just a fight between noobs. There's nothing interesting to watch. It's very boring."
