Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 529: We don’t owe each other anything
Chen Mu nodded slightly and fell into deep thought.

According to her, Penglai Palace is a place of opportunity of very high "grade"...

Meng Yuewei once again presented the "Meng Clan Secret Key" and said softly, "It will be more than thirty years before the next Immortal Palace is born. By then, I will be at most at the Golden Core stage. How can I be involved in it?

But Master is at a very high level, and may even be able to compete with the leaders of the top forces in the East China Sea. I hope Master will not refuse and accept this Immortal Palace token."

Chen Mu pondered for a moment, and without pretending to be polite, he immediately waved his sleeves to accept the Immortal Palace token and nodded.

"In that case, I will temporarily borrow this token from you. After the matter at the Immortal Palace is settled, I will return it to you, Meng."

Meng Yuewei's heart trembled when she heard this, and her expression suddenly became extremely serious. She said yes respectfully and retreated.

After he left, Chen Mu took out the token and looked at it carefully.

As time passed, the blood aura remaining on it slowly dissipated, gradually revealing the true appearance of this token.

The entire token was white jade in color and felt cool to the touch. If his soul had not sensed it, he would not have been able to tell that this token was not a real object.

"Penglai Fairy Palace..."

He murmured something, and a decision was quietly made in his heart.

Now that he has reached the late stage of the Golden Core, he needs to start considering the matter of forming a baby.

Anyway, it will take more than thirty years for this fairy palace to appear in the world. If I encounter a bottleneck during this period and cannot break through, I might really have to break into the Penglai Fairy Palace.

Being able to attract so many Nascent Soul cultivators, there must be many rare fourth-order spiritual materials. If you can find a few of them, will you still worry about forming Nascent Soul spiritual objects?
Thinking of this, he put away the token with a smile, then stopped thinking about it, swallowed a few pills, closed his eyes and began to cultivate...

……

The clouds and mist rolled, and ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, a beam of light suddenly appeared in the calm sea and sky. The light was five-colored and moved at an incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, it passed over the deserted island below and went straight into the depths of the sea.

But before he had gone far, he suddenly stopped, looked back, and laughed: "So it's here..."

The escaping light returned and landed on the deserted island in a moment, revealing a tall figure with handsome short hair. It was a pity that there were spots on his face, which ruined his handsome appearance.

Hua Meimei looked around and then swaggered into the mist, calling out loudly, "Brother Chen, Brother Chen..."

In a corner of the fog, inside the cave, Chen Mu opened his eyes and probed with his consciousness. His brows suddenly furrowed, "Why is it him?"

When he escaped earlier, Hua Meimei was still bound by the people of Xuanyuan League. Why did she suddenly come here now?

He became suspicious and his spiritual sense suddenly extended ten thousand feet, but he did not find any trace of others.

"Brother Chen, I know you're recuperating here. Don't worry, I, Hua Ye, have no ill intentions. I just want to make friends with you!"

Hua Meimei was still shouting loudly, walking back and forth in the fog without any hurry.

Seeing this, Chen Mu's frown relaxed and he felt much calmer.

Fighting with others one after another made him become too cautious without realizing it.

Being cautious is a good thing, but being too cautious will also make you lose many opportunities.

Chen Mu stood up and walked closer into the mist. Hua Meimei looked around and when she looked up, she suddenly saw a figure in a black robe. She couldn't help but smack her lips in delight. She saluted from afar and said, "
"After more than 20 years of not seeing you, Brother Chen is still as charming and elegant as ever, with such extraordinary bearing!"

He still remembered that more than 20 years ago, Chen Mu was only in the early stage of Golden Core.

But now it seems that he has already reached the late Golden Core stage, and his combat power is even more astonishing. Although he relies on external objects to compete with Yuanying cultivators, it also shows his foundation.

Such talent also changed his view of it...

Chen Mu remained calm and replied, "Fellow Daoist Hua has changed quite a bit...

I have heard that for the past twenty years or so, Fellow Daoist Hua has transformed himself into my appearance and walked the mortal world. I wonder if this rumor is true?"

Hua Meimei's expression froze when these words came out, but she didn't feel embarrassed at all. She quickly smiled and said, "So Brother Chen heard about it... It was indeed my fault for doing this. I hope you won't hold a grudge against me for this. I won't do this again in the future."

Chen Mu wanted to be cautious, so he said, "Friend Hua has been transforming for over twenty years, creating so much karma for me for no reason. Can a simple apology resolve that?"

This is quite true. Take Ye Wei from Qingchen Temple for example. If Hua Meimei had not transformed into his appearance and fallen in love with him, how could she know of his existence and entrust the matter of "finding her husband" to him.

It can be seen that everything that happens is cause and effect.

Hua Meimei was stunned when she heard this. Why was Chen Mu's reaction different from what she expected...

He pondered for a moment, then suddenly his expression changed. He stopped trying to please with a smile and rolled up his sleeves, placed his hands on his hips, and shouted, "You Taoist, why are you so aggressive? Have you forgotten that if Master Hua hadn't stopped Jin Yuantong for you, you would have been captured by him long ago?"

Perhaps his anger had given him a quick wit, as his eyes lit up and he continued, "Also, I'm afraid it was you who destroyed the Xuanyuan Alliance branch. Didn't that mean Hua Ye had to take the blame for you? That's why he got a good beating from that Nascent Soul cultivator!"

Hearing this, Chen Mu smiled slightly, nodded, and said, "Indeed, Fellow Daoist Hua once did me a favor. That's all. Since Fellow Daoist Hua said so, then let's cancel out our grievances and not owe each other anything from now on, okay?"

Hua Meimei was stunned again, wondering why Chen Mu was so easy to talk to again?

He couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it. He clapped his hands and said happily, "That's right, that's right. You and I owe each other nothing."

Chen Mu smiled inwardly, thinking that the debt of Hua Meimei's help back then had been resolved, so he changed his tone and asked, "Fellow Daoist Hua, what brings you here this time?"

Hua Meimei waved her hand upon hearing this and said with a smile, "It's nothing serious. It's just that after this battle, I felt that Brother Chen was no ordinary person. So after shaking off the Xuanyuan Alliance cultivators, I specifically chased him down to make friends."

"You're too polite, Fellow Daoist Hua." Chen Mu bowed slightly.

Seeing his indifferent reaction, Hua Meimei frowned and continued, "Also, the leader of the Xuanyuan Alliance somehow found out that you are a cultivator from Beiyuan, so he set up checkpoints in various dangerous places in the surrounding seas leading to Beiyuan, waiting for you to break in."

"Oh?" Chen Mu's heart moved, and he asked, "Wasn't the leader of the Xuanyuan Alliance seriously injured? How did he recover so quickly?"

Hua Meimei nodded and said, "Nascent Soul's methods are always a bit unreasonable. I don't know the specific recovery process, but he is furious and vows to kill you here."

Chen Mu was stunned when he heard this. Regardless of why he recovered so quickly, based on his soul's ability to conceal himself, he was not afraid of the checkpoints set up by the Xuanyuan Alliance.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Hua, for coming to tell me. I will be careful."

Perhaps seeing that he didn't take it seriously, Hua Meimei sighed and said in a deep voice, "Brother Chen, don't be careless. From what I observed when I came here, it seems that the leader of the Xuanyuan Alliance has asked the Canghai Sect to join the checkpoint as well.

Canghai Sect has two Nascent Soul cultivators. If Brother Chen wants to bring that beauty back to Beiyuan, it won’t be that easy…”
