Mu Yun and his sister fought their way out of the Tai Xuan Holy Land, but one problem after another arose.

They encountered nearly ten waves of pursuers in succession.

They fought and fled, leaving themselves battered and bruised!

In the end, the two abandoned their sword-flying adventure and landed on the ground on foot, finally finding a forest to hide in.

Both of them were injured at the moment, and if they were to encounter a powerful enemy again, they would probably face a nine-out-of-ten chance of death.

"The four holy lands are all hunting us down... The Nine Provinces are so vast, is there really no place for us to hide!"

Unable to contain his anger, Mu Yun suddenly plunged his sword into the tree trunk.

He never imagined that he would one day end up like this... a street rat that everyone hates.

"I'm sorry, brother, I've dragged you into this..."

"They're the ones who are being unfair!"

Mu Yun sneered: "You have never done anything immoral or heinous, and you are always kind to others. What crime have you committed?"

"Brother, let's go to Luoyang...maybe there's someone there willing to take us in."

"You mean, Boyi?"

Mu Yun immediately pictured the refined scholar, the chess fanatic who spent his days studying chess.

"Alright, then let's go to Luoyang!"

.......

The news has already reached the Heavenly Demon Palace.

"Report to the Demon Lord!"

"Just as you predicted, Mu Qiufeng's daughter was indeed targeted and hunted down by the four holy lands, and has now escaped from the Tai Xuan Holy Land."

Jun Moxie raised an eyebrow: "She actually managed to escape unscathed?"

"It seems... that Chen Nian blocked the Tai Xuan Saint Master, giving her a chance to escape."

"That kid can already hold off the Holy Lord?"

Jun Moxie had a bad feeling.

This person will cause endless trouble and must be killed as soon as possible.

In a short time.

The story of Chen Nian's solo defense of the Tai Xuan Hall, his fierce battle with the Holy Lord, and his safe escape spread throughout all the major sects.

The four holy lands were utterly shocked upon receiving the news.

"I admire this kid; he's a real man!"

"Giving up a promising future just to protect the daughter of a sinner? That's foolish!"

"To be able to hold off a single enemy at the pass and fight a holy lord alone—what an enchanting scene that would be!"

"The four holy lands have issued arrest warrants, ordering the capture of those three people throughout the entire Nine Provinces..."

Tianchi Sacred Land.

The Holy Lord of Tianchi asked Lin Xian'er, "I noticed you had a good relationship with Chen Nian before, but now he's wanted throughout the entire Nine Provinces. What do you think about that?"

"I think he is a person who values ​​loyalty and righteousness."

"Is it that simple? To put it kindly, it's about loyalty; to put it bluntly, it's about short-sightedness and a lack of understanding of the bigger picture. Such people are prone to premature death."

Lin Xian'er thought for a moment, her beautiful eyes flickered, and she whispered, "Master, now that the Tai Xuan Holy Land and Chen Nian have a conflict, why can't our Tianchi Holy Land take this opportunity to protect him?"

"Do you think the value of something so ancient is worth turning against the other three holy sites?"

"That's right."

"Xian'er, I've never seen you treat any man this well before? You wouldn't happen to be...."

"I have no master! He saved Xian'er's life that day and killed a seventh-realm elder of the Heavenly Demon Palace right in front of me."

"Is that so?!"

The Holy Lord of Tianchi was greatly alarmed, and after a moment of contemplation, he nodded.

"Although the Heavenly Pool Holy Land cannot openly protect him, if it really comes down to life and death, I will say a good word for him."

"Well, given the circumstances, what we've done is enough. Thank you, Master!"

........

Luoyang City, night.

Suburbs, a thatched cottage.

Bo Yi was studying chess scores by the light of an oil lamp when he suddenly heard a rapid knocking at the door.

He opened the door and saw the injured Mu Yun and his sister.

"Come in quickly!"

Not too surprised, he quickly led the two into the house, then peeked out to make sure no one was watching before locking the door.

"Senior brother, did you know we were coming?"

"The whole world is after you now. I figure you have nowhere to go, so you might come here."

Mu Yun cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

"Oh, what are you saying! The four of us will always be fellow disciples, so what trouble is there? It's just that you are in trouble now, and I am too incompetent to help you much."

Of the four, Mu Yun and Mu Qingxuan have the best talent.

Although Jin Shu's cultivation level was mediocre, she was still an inner disciple of the Tai Xuan Holy Land.

As for Boyi, in other people's words, he was an unambitious good-for-nothing.

"How are your injuries?"

"It's nothing serious, but he needs to rest and recuperate for a while."

"Alright, I'll go to the pharmacy tomorrow to get some medicine. There are fewer people in the suburbs, so you don't need to worry too much."

"Brother... I wonder how Chen Nian is doing..."

The thought of this made Mu Qingxuan feel uneasy and unable to put her mind at ease.

"Chen Nian, is he the one who was wanted along with you?"

Bo Yi laughed and said, "There's been news in the city these past two days that he also escaped. That brother is quite capable; I'd like to meet him if I have the chance."

Upon hearing the news that Chen Nian was alright, Mu Qingxuan's expression immediately improved.

"Jinshu combed her hair..."

Mu Qingxuan said, "Although Senior Sister Jinshu spoke up for us in the main hall, she didn't go too far. Master should help look after her, so Senior Brother doesn't need to worry."

"That's good." Bo Yi nodded. "By the way, did she like the chess pieces I gave her last time?"

"Ugh... she just slapped it away."

Bo Yi shook his head with a wry smile, "So be it, so be it, the sentiment is enough."

........

Tai Xuan Sacred Land.

As soon as Jinshu returned to her room, her whole body tensed up, and she instinctively drew her sword.

"who!"

Someone was in her room.

"it's me."

Chen Nian narrowly managed to catch the sword blade with his two fingers.

"You...you're still here? Aren't you afraid of dying?!"

After a brief moment of shock, Jinshu immediately closed the door.

"I can come and go as I please in a place like the Tai Xuan Holy Land."

Chen Nian said in a deep voice, "I saw you speak up for Qingxuan that day, so you two must have a good relationship. Do you know where they're going?"

"So that's what you wanted to ask... If I tell you, wouldn't I become a traitor to the Tai Xuan Holy Land?"

"That depends on just how good your relationship with Qingxuan really is."

After a brief silence, Jinshu whispered, "They... should have gone to Luoyang to find Senior Brother."

"Senior brother?"

"His name is Boyi. If you want to find them, I can tell you."

"Looks like I'm quite trustworthy." Chen Nian smiled.

"It's just that your actions are trustworthy."

Having obtained the information he wanted, Chen Nian did not linger and prepared to leave.

As he walked to the door, he suddenly said.

"By the way, I saw a chess piece in the soil of that flower bed. Is it yours?"

"Mind your own business!"

Jinshu closed the door and ignored her.

Chen Nian left the Tai Xuan Holy Land under the cover of night and headed towards Luoyang City.

The most urgent task is to meet up with Mu Yun and the other person to discuss the next steps.
