I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 1807 Conspiracy
As time passed quietly, every minute and every second slipped away silently like a drop of water wearing away a stone. Two hours seemed to pass in a flash, and at this moment, several people from Danzong had completed the absorption of spiritual energy. Their mental state and physical strength had recovered to the peak, and some people's strength even showed a subtle increase.

Several people were deeply shocked by the effect of the elixir. This kind of elixir was extremely rare even in a place like Danzong, and its value was also very high. However, the other party gave it to them so generously, which was enough to show his deep strength and rich background.

"I have decided that this big guy will become my idol in the future." One of the Danzong's disciples had an admiration for Liu Jun that was as surging as the Yellow River. His eyes were filled with passion and admiration when he looked at Liu Jun.

At this time, Liu Jun, who was leisurely crossing his legs, suddenly felt a fanatical gaze burning at him like a torch. This feeling made him shudder. He seemed to have seen this gaze somewhere before. The slightly familiar feeling made him feel a little cold in his heart, as if he had seen it on Xu Kai. It was really scary.

Fortunately, this guy still had some sense and didn't stare at Liu Jun too recklessly, which made Liu Jun feel a little relieved. If the other party really did that, Liu Jun would probably really not be able to help but walk over and teach this overly enthusiastic admirer a lesson.

In the deep night of the Howling Forest, everything is silent, but this silence does not come from the harmony of nature, but because of the atmosphere of fear and uneasiness that shrouds the forest. The night is as dark as ink, the moon is hidden behind the dark clouds, and the trees are like twisted ghosts, swaying in the darkness.

The sounds in the forest merged into one, like a symphony from hell, with shrill howls rising and falling, echoing in every corner. These sounds were the nightmare of the forest, the cries of wild beasts, and unknown threats.

In this terrifying environment, Liu Jun and his group were able to live in peace because of the pressure from the little phoenix.

Under this powerful pressure, the fierce beasts in the Howling Forest chose to avoid it and did not dare to approach. Therefore, despite the shrill and terrifying sounds around them, they were able to rest in peace and recover their strength.

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight penetrated the treetops and shone on everyone's faces, everyone had packed up and set out again on the journey to Dan City.

. . . .

In the prosperous Dan City, there is an eye-catching mansion. It is not only a symbol of wealth and power, but also the private territory of Mu Shaohua, the young master of the Mu family. The mansion is luxuriously and elegantly decorated, and every detail shows the owner's taste and status.

At this moment, in a private lounge in the mansion, Mu Shaohua was lying on a comfortable soft couch, his eyes slightly narrowed, obviously enjoying some kind of pleasure. A beautiful servant gently massaged his shoulders, her technique was skillful and gentle, which gradually relaxed Mu Shaohua's facial muscles and revealed a satisfied smile.

"Master, I'm sorry to disturb your rest, but there is one thing you need to know." The person who interrupted the tranquility was Mu Lin, the elder of the Mu family, with a calm tone full of respect.

Although Mu Lin's hair has turned gray, he is vigorous and his eyes are full of wisdom. Mu Lin has always been known for his wisdom and steadiness in the family. His strength has reached the middle stage of the main god level and he is the backbone of the Mu family.

"What's the matter? Tell me." Mu Shaohua opened his eyes instantly after hearing that, and a hint of displeasure was revealed in his bright eyes.

There was a hint of impatience in his voice, and he was obviously unhappy about being interrupted. However, when he heard Mullin's report, the dissatisfaction was instantly replaced by another emotion - shock and anger.

"What did you say? Failed? Didn't they claim to be invincible in the Howling Forest? They can't even deal with a few Danzong disciples?" Mu Shaohua's voice rose several decibels, his brows were furrowed, and his expression was full of confusion and displeasure.

The financial backer behind the Jackal Mercenaries was none other than Mu Shaohua. Over the years, he had used the Jackal Mercenaries to achieve some not-so-glorious goals, and he had always been successful. But now, he had been defeated by a few Danzong disciples. How could he accept this?

Mu Lin sighed. He knew that this news would shock Mu Shaohua, but this was a fact that could not be changed.

"Originally, there was no problem. The only five Danzong disciples who were killed were Danxia and others. But they were lucky and met several main god-level strongmen who were willing to help them, so the Jackal Mercenary Group suffered a great loss." There was a hint of helplessness in Mu Lin's words, and it was obvious that he felt sorry for the failure.

Mu Shaohua's face darkened. He had not expected things to turn out like this. The defeat of the Jackal Mercenaries was not just a failure in a battle, it would also affect his subsequent plans and bring him a lot of trouble.

What he needs to think about is not only how to deal with this matter, but also how to prevent Danzong from tracing him. Although Danzong may not be able to find him, once they do, their Mu family will face a devastating disaster.

"Go, kill those people. Don't let them have anything to do with us." This sentence was like an order. Mu Lin, who was standing behind Mu Shaohua, as an elder, did not say anything, but his eyes revealed a hint of determination. He just nodded slightly, then turned and left the house, his back firm and resolute.

After Mu Lin left, the screen behind Mu Shaohua moved slightly, and a young man holding a folding fan walked out. There was a gleam of wisdom in his eyes, and he waved the folding fan gently, as if he was thinking about something.

"Give up on Danxia. This time the noise is too loud. I'll help you find other sacrifices." The young man with the folding fan looked at Mu Shaohua and said softly. After hearing this, Mu Shaohua tightened his grip on the armrest. His eyes became extremely firm, staring at the young man with the folding fan: "Other sacrifices? It took decades to find this Danxia. Do I have to wait for decades more?

"There is no way. This time the commotion is too big. Danzong will definitely investigate the matter thoroughly. It is not a smart thing to bring trouble upon oneself, although you are not very smart." The words of the young man with the folding fan were full of calmness and rationality, as if he had expected everything, and he did not forget to make a sarcastic remark while explaining.

Mu Shaohua's emotions were like a turbulent sea. He clenched his fists and stared at Gong Qing in front of him with a sullen face. His eyes flashed with a fierce light like a beast, as if he was going to tear the prey in front of him into pieces in the next second.

"Gong Qing, half a month, I can only give you half a month at most. I don't need any excuses, and I won't accept any reasons for failure. I want to join Danzong as the number one genius, and become the sect master's personal disciple! Do you understand?" Mu Shaohua almost shouted these words, his bloodshot eyes staring at Gong Qing, as if he wanted to see a hint of determination and assurance on his face.

The young man who always held the folding fan elegantly was named Gong Qing. On the surface, he was Mu Shaohua's think tank, but in fact, the two were partners. Moreover, Gong Qing often made Mu Shaohua so angry that he wanted to kill him.

There was a calmness in Gong Qing's eyes that was completely different from that of Mu Shaohua. He was seen gently shaking the folding fan in his hand, as if the storm before him had nothing to do with him. There was a barely perceptible sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

"You can shout louder so that everyone can hear you. Mu Shaohua, your attitude will only lead to the destruction of the Mu family." Gong Qing's voice was calm and deep, and his words were like a sharp sword, piercing Mu Shaohua's heart.

Gong Qing's words instantly made Mu Shaohua's anger reach its peak. He waved his fists as if he wanted to smash everything in front of him. But Gong Qing remained calm and even gently tapped the neck of the maid who was massaging Mu Shaohua with the folding fan in his hand.

The maid's eyes widened instantly, her body stiffened for a moment, and then she fell to the ground. After a moment, she turned into a pool of pus, and even her clothes were corroded.

This scene made Mu Shaohua's eyes instantly filled with horror. He looked at Gong Qing as if he saw a devil, a devil even more evil than himself.

. . .

After many hardships, the group led by Liu Jun finally walked out of the dreaded Howling Forest.

Along the way, they did not encounter any danger, no attacks from ferocious beasts, no robberies from evil forces, but there were still many potential dangers, such as man-eating swamps and harmful plants. If Wu Bing had not led the way, it would not have been so easy to get out.

After leaving the Howling Forest, the group came to the post station at the edge of the forest. In order to reach the destination as quickly as possible, they found a few luxurious carriages and rushed all the way to Dan City. Although Liu Jun had a powerful intelligent brain No. 2 that could teleport over short distances, considering the people traveling with him, he chose a conservative approach to avoid exposing his trump card.

After the carriage had been running wildly on the road for several hours, the group finally arrived at the prosperous Dan City. Here, they successfully met the disciples of the Dan Sect who came to pick them up.

After leaving the Howling Forest, Danxia contacted Danzong immediately, so Danzong sent people out to look for them.

Among the disciples who came to meet him, the leader was wearing a long robe, which could not hide his burly figure. The first impression he gave was that he was full of strength and had an explosive force value. This was the third senior brother of Danxia Sect. He was well-known in the sect. He was not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also had rich combat experience and often risked his life. His nickname was Desperate Sanlang. Although he was the third senior brother, his strength was stronger than the eldest senior brother of their generation.

When the female disciple next to Danxia saw the third senior brother, she rushed forward, hugged him tightly, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Alright, alright, it's okay. The elders and the people from the Martial Arts Hall have already entered the Howling Forest. I believe they will be able to find that group of people soon and avenge our dead brothers," the third brother said hurriedly to comfort them.

When Danxia contacted Danzong, he had already told the elders of Danzong about their experience and how many people had died, so the third senior brother also knew what had happened.

After a long time of comforting, she finally calmed down. Liu Jun came to Danxia and said with a smile: "Well, now that we are here, let's settle the bill?"

Danxia did not hesitate and handed Liu Jun a bag full of divine coins, which could be exchanged at Jinliufu Cash Box at any time. Liu Jun took the bag, checked the amount inside, and found that there were exactly 15 million divine coins, and he smiled happily.

"Thank you. See you later." Liu Jun said happily, then turned and left.

"Wait, do you still have that Huiling Pill? I want to buy some as a backup." Danxia called Liu Jun.
