Rumours

“Didn’t True God seal those freaks in Moyun Mountains?”

“He’s strong enough to keep them there.”

“I heard he deliberately released them. His disciple, Mu Yu, is close to the fiend race. I heard from a fiend that he just released Ocean Fiend King not long ago. Third Heaven Palace is displeased with him and wants to have a word with True God. Maybe True God released them to spite Third Heaven Palace. I also heard Mu Yu possesses the ability of wood demons. There are claims that he’s one of the five in the prophecy.”

“He can control wood?”

“Apparently, True God’s four other disciples, Lie Shang, Cheng Yan, Xiang Nan and Qiao Xue can control one elent each. If he trained them despite them possessing those elental abilities, they might be aiming to usurp Third Heaven Palace’s rule.”

“What the hell? And we’ve respected him all this ti.”

“I figured there was more than what we’re told about True God when the elental demons popped up. We can only depend on Third HeavenPalace now.”

“We should destroy his damn statues, then!”

“Mu Yu, let go. Doesn’t this piss you off? I won’t allow them to spread libel about Old White Beard!” Xiaoshuai fud, trying to wrestle free of Mu Yu’s hold.

Mu Yu picked up Xiaoshuai and went into a teahouse. “You still haven’t realised where these rumours co from?”

“I couldn’t care even if he pulled it out of his rear. This is slander of the highest degree. If it wasn’t for Old White Beard, they wouldn’t even be alive. What the hell?!”

“We have Third Heaven Palace to thank. Nobody else would know those details so clearly. I suppose they spread this misinformation to find us and turn everyone against us so that we can’t run anywhere. At the sa ti, they can curry favour with the cultivators. I’ve seen this sort of stuff so frequently by this point that I know what to do.”

“I’ll kill all those who backstab their benefactor,” Lie Shang declared.

“Why does Third Heaven Palace want to ruin Old White Beard? What do they stand to gain?” Xiaoshuai raged.

“Though they’ve captured Shifu, our presence introduces an unpredictable factor. If I’m not wrong, they’ve realised that we’re dangerous to them. Since we’re not their pawns, we’re their enemies,” answered Mu Yu, sitting down at the table by the window.

“They aren’t just ungrateful; they’re basically dishonourable traitors at this point!”

“Humans are uglier than you can imagine. All it takes is so carrot from Third Heaven Palace to turn them against Shifu. They’re not worth helping,” expressed Lie Shang.

“That said, we’re soon going to have to do this solo,” Mu Yu pointed out.

“Xiang Nan was ahead of the curve.”

“How are we going to locate him?”

“Xiang Nan last appeared at Mist City, the city closest to Moyun Mountains. Though we didn’t find him or elental demons in the area, I reckon there’s sothing near there that brings him there.”

“Mu Yu, are we still going to search for the immortal?” Xiaoshuai asked.

“I almost forgot about that.”

“What’s this about an immortal?” Lie Shang queried.

After tuning in to Mu Yu’s summary, Lie Shang questioned, “What powers do immortals possess?”

“Fiend King Qinglong said we’d be able to sense the energy once we reach Ascension Realm. If the nine immortals can unite, they can overthrow Third Heaven Palace.”

“I take it Third Heaven Palace is also searching for the ninth individual?”

“Yes.”

“… You ntioned Dragon Searching Formation. Perhaps we can use it to search for Xiang Nan.”

“We need sothing from him, then. You have any of his clothes?”

“He took all of his property when he left Twenty-Five Kilotres South Garden. I guess he knew about Dragon Searching Formation, therefore ensured there were no traces left behind.”

“Welp, there goes that,” grumbled Xiaoshuai.

“Wait,” blurted Mu Yu. “I know how to find him using Dragon Searching Formation!”
