Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 789 Let’s go, let’s go

Bai Jin rarely spoke up for him. Looking at Hua Meimei, who looked unconvinced, he said in a deep voice, "If you really want to save Chen Mu, then practice hard. It's better than showing off here!"

Hearing this, Hua Meimei knew exactly what the ancestor meant. She couldn't help but panic, "Brother Chen's life or death is uncertain. Is this the end of the matter?"

Bai Jin sighed deeply: "We have done everything we can. Whether Chen lives or dies depends on his own luck..."

Hua Meimei was stunned for a moment, as if she couldn't understand what was going on.

Bai Jin did not press him. After a brief pause, he turned around and bowed to Xu Yun and the others. "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave now."

The Dragon Mother politely tried to persuade him to stay, saying, "Why are you so anxious, old senior? We are from different continents, and it's not easy for us to get together. Why don't you come to my palace and have a chat?"

Bai Jin's white beard swayed in the wind, and he shook his head and said, "I'm so discouraged, I won't go anymore. Goodbye..."

After saying that, he turned around and lifted up the absent-minded Hua Meimei, who turned into smoke and soared into the sky, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

"Amitabha, I am leaving now."

Shenxiu sighed softly, his expression was serious, the corners of his eyes seemed to be half-closed, and with the Buddhist gesture of his hands, he really looked like the golden Buddha statue in the temple.

The Dragon Mother and the others did not lose their composure and said, "Master, take care."

Shenxiu nodded slightly, then walked away. Auspicious clouds appeared under his feet, carrying his body up to the Western Heaven.

At the same time, an ethereal voice spread throughout the sky: "A little spiritual light follows the setting sun, all worldly affairs are left to the clouds, and the world is in turmoil..."

The Dragon Mother nodded secretly and said frankly: "This Master Shenxiu is truly extraordinary."

She had no good feelings towards Buddhists, but she felt that Shenxiu was very different from ordinary monks.

"So what if he's not ordinary? After all, he's not of the same mind as us."

The Jiang ancestor snorted coldly, unable to conceal his joy. Looking at the increasingly grim expressions of Pingyang and the other man, he felt a sense of relief. He shook his head and sighed, "They came with high hopes, but left disappointed. Such a young talent has passed away. How sad and lamentable..."

"My three fellow Taoists, I will go ahead."

Xuyun and the other two ignored it, but the Dragon Mother nodded slightly.

The ancestor of the Jiang family laughed heartily, then stood up and flew away.

After a moment, Pingyang whispered to Xiang Xuyun, "Fellow Daoist, do you think the Jiang family was behind Chen Mu's misfortune?"

Because Jiang had opposed Chen Mu several times, Pingyang couldn't help but be suspicious of her.

Xuyun pondered for a long time, then shook his head: "Last time, Jiang Qianrui was already the most outstanding hidden pawn of the Jiang family. If that Taoist Jiumo is related to him, he will definitely not escape my sight, but..."

"But what?"

"I always feel that it's a bit strange that Jiang Laodao came here. He didn't do anything to stop us from rescuing Chen Mu."

"And to say he came just to personally witness the news of Chen Mu's death is a bit too much of a stretch. After all, after hundreds of years of living together, I know he's not that kind of person..."

Pingyang frowned and said, "Fellow Daoist, do you think he has other intentions for coming here?"

Xuyun nodded: "It's very likely. I think he should know something about the identity of Taoist Jiumo..."

Pingyang was shocked: "Why didn't you test it just now?"

"I'm just guessing. If we rashly ask, he'll definitely deny everything. Then we'll have no evidence, so what can we use to force him to question us?"

Xu Yun's expression remained calm as he slowly spoke, "If we are truly so reckless, then we've lost the last glimmer of hope..."

Pingyang took a deep breath and nodded, "Your approach is correct, I was mistaken."

Xu Yun waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, fellow Daoist. I will investigate Taoist Jiu Mo's identity after I return. If I find anything amiss with Taoist Jiang, I will definitely let you know."

Pingyang sighed deeply, "This is the only way."

Mother Long said at the right moment, "You two Daoists don't treat me as an outsider. Aren't you afraid that I'll inform Daoist Jiang in advance?"

Xuyun remained unmoved, and asked, "Is Fellow Daoist Jin so close to the Jiang family?"

The Dragon Mother immediately covered her mouth with a smile, and without answering, she said directly: "I know that you two don't have the leisure to come to my palace for a chat, so I won't invite you."

"It's a pity what happened to Chen Mu, but it was ultimately his own calamity on the Dao path. I hope you two fellow Daoists won't create a rift over this and jeopardize the friendship between Zhongzhou and Beiyuan."

Xuyun was a little surprised: "Fellow Daoist Jin is actually trying to enlighten us?"

In fact, she didn't need to explain. The two of them didn't quarrel as fiercely as the rumors said, simply because they were both reasonable people.

The Dragon Mother smiled slightly and said nothing more. Then she bowed deeply, turned around and floated down from the sky, then stepped lightly onto the jade chariot with lotus steps.

Then the armored warriors and the scallop-holding women stood up one after another, surrounded the jade chariot and floated away.

Most of the dragon sons and daughters followed, leaving only Ao Yi, Ao Chun, Ao Yin and Ao Yun.

The latter two did not stay for long. They either sighed or lamented Chen Mu's ending, then jumped up to chase him.

As for Ao Yi and Ao Chun, they watched intently for a long time without moving...

Four of the six True Lords have already left. Compared to how hurriedly they arrived, they seemed even more hasty when they left.

Except for the ancestor of the Jiang family, the rest of the people did not want to rescue Chen Mu, but they did not know the right place and the reason. What could they do?
Xuyun was silent for a long time, and finally said, "Fellow Daoist Pingyang, I will go first."

Just as Bai Jin said, whether Chen Mu left the Immortal Palace early and disappeared into nothingness, or was trapped in some secret place, his life or death depended on his own luck.

The last thing they could do was to investigate the identity of Taoist Jiumo in order to find a new breakthrough point...

Pingyang didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.

After Xuyun and Zhongzhou's group left, Beiyuan and others gathered around.

Taoist Tian Xing asked in a trembling voice, "Senior Pingyang, kid Chen... Chen Mu, are you really just going to leave him alone?"

His life was numbered, and the proudest thing in his life was that he had a disciple named Chen Mu in his later years. He had intended to take this matter to the underworld to show off to his senior teachers, but who would have thought that before he died, Chen Mu would be the first to cry out for help...

Pingyang was stunned by the question for a moment, frowning and remaining silent.

Gao Xiaoqing, Yu and Meng also wanted to speak out for help, but were stopped by Zhuang Yan, who was still calm.

It has been decided at this point, how can it be changed just by their request?
Moreover, Master Pingyang did not fail to help. On the contrary, he contributed greatly and was willing to take extraordinary risks to escape into nothingness.

Instead of begging and making him unhappy, it is better to understand the situation better, so that he will pay more attention to the follow-up matters.

As mentioned before, if we can find out the identity of Taoist Jiumo, there might be a chance for a turnaround...

Not long after, Taoist Tian Xing also came to his senses and quickly bowed and said, "I am sorry for my words, please don't blame me, Senior."

Pingyang sighed secretly, his mind moved slightly, and his whole body turned into a stream of light and flew away.

At one moment, all the True Lords in the field left.

The sky grew darker, with endless black clouds looming and flashes of lightning appearing from time to time, making the place extremely depressing.

"The storm is coming, let's go back..."

Someone said something, and people started to stand up and go back.

First came the monks from the East China Sea who came to join in the fun, and then came some outsiders who came specifically for Chen Mu.

Huang Linzun stared at the distant sky for a long time without saying a word, until a loud thunder roared. He then sighed deeply and sailed away in his boat with a lonely look on his face.

"Tick, tick..."

A cold wind suddenly blew and rain began to fall.

Taoist Sun raised his eyes to look at the sky and whispered, "If you are willing to stay for a while, I will go back first..."

Before he could finish his words, he saw the old Taoist Tian Xing's eyes flash and said in a deep voice: "Let's go back together."

Perhaps knowing that Old Taoist Sun would be a little surprised, he continued, "Rather than wasting the rest of my life here, I will personally investigate the identity of that Taoist Jiumo!"

At this moment, he still didn't know Jiumo Daoist's other identity, Yunsu Sanren...

Taoist Sun laughed loudly: "That's right. My life span is also short. I would like to join you and see who killed my Beiyuan Immortal Talent!"

The group of people left through the clouds in a mighty and energetic manner. Those who remained were all Chen Mu's close friends.

Whether it was the feeling of discipleship, the feeling of affection, or even the feeling of brotherhood, it went without saying that all of them made them reluctant to leave for a long time.

But even if we send you thousands of miles away, there will always be a farewell, let alone now?
I don't know how long it took, but the rain got heavier and heavier, and the sky and the earth merged into one. My vision was blurred, and I couldn't tell whether it was rain or tears...

"Brother Chen, I'm waiting for you to come and drink with me again!"

Xu Jingyang suddenly shouted loudly, then laughed three times and strode away.

Gao Xiaoqing also looked towards Yuantian and smiled softly, "Brother, do you still remember the last time I sent you a letter about our happy event? In your reply, you blamed me for hiding it from you."

"But if I hadn't said that, you wouldn't even bother to reply to my letter..."

"Since we meet today, Junior Sister will tell you that the happy event is actually because I have tailored a third-level treasured robe."

"You once said that you would report my progress to you, but in the end, you completely forgot..."

She murmured repeatedly, her nose wrinkled slightly, and then she turned around suddenly as if angry, and said to Yu and Meng, "Let's go!"

Yu and Meng nodded, bowed deeply to Yuan Tian, ​​and then flew away together...

She Yingtan was standing the farthest away. Her usually bright face looked terribly sad. The hem of her dark green skirt was hidden in the rain curtain, making her even less noticeable.

She didn't say much, and as she slowly turned around, she just kept repeating a poem that she couldn't say.

This is what it means: "Looking at each other from afar on the wall and on horseback, I know you are my heartbroken when I see you."

"Senior Sister Han, your realm is not yet stable, so you should leave first."

Niu Dali did not use his magic power to block the rain, so his hairpin was soaked and the rain fell on his face.

But even so, he still looked at the frail figure with worry, because when Chen Mu left, he had asked him as his younger brother to take good care of that person...

Han Jing regained her composure, reached out to tuck the hair that had been blown by the wind and rain around her ears, and then forced a faint smile, saying softly: "Junior Brother Niu, go back first, I'll wait for him..."

Just a few words, but the meaning was unchangeable. Niu Dali suddenly lost his mind. After a long time, he sighed secretly and turned away.

Ao Chun observed the situation. As a woman, she knew Han Jing's identity through her intuition. She couldn't help but feel annoyed again: "I thought he was a love-struck man and rejected me, so why did she pop up now?"

She was indignant and couldn't help but secretly compare herself with Han Jing. She even said to Ao Yi, "Sister, if she doesn't leave, we won't leave either!"

Ao Yi had no such thoughts. After looking at Han Jing deeply, he made a gesture and summoned the demon king of this sea area.

"What is the eldest princess' order?"

"Don't let others disturb the peace here, and don't disturb that female cultivator..."

"Yes!"

The wind and rain are blowing, and the clouds are billowing.

"let's go……"

Ao Yi said the last words and looked at the two of them.
