Another Visit to Celestial Star Sect

Mu Yu certainly had the ans to infiltrate Celestial Star Sect since he learnt their formation’s design. The issue was that he would have alerted the Ascension Realm cultivators if he took that route. Besides, storming in against an entire sect with just him, Zhuge Xiaosheng and Tian Ran was not folly but suicide.

The disciples treated Tian Jiancheng as an elder, genuflecting to welco him back, while Mu Yu, who they presud to be Tian Jiancheng’s guest, followed behind in his disguise.

Celestial Star Sect’s Seven Divine Peaks were nad Dubhe, rak, Phecda, grez, Alioth, Mizar and Alkaid, with grez as the central control hub for the sect’s barrier. Hence, it was the most heavily guarded location, and a sign-in system was implented for all visitors. If Tian Jiancheng took Mu Yu straight there upon returning, it’d look suspicious.

“Tian Yuehen is now an Ascension Realm Fifth Layer adept, and he guards grez Peak with the Ascension Realm Seventh Layer elder who goes by the na Tian Xingzhou. I can help you cover, but we cannot be too conspicuous for the two of them may catch on.”

Tian Jiancheng took Mu Yu to the sixth divine peak over five kilotres high, which was located rather far away from the other mountains. Tian Jiancheng resided at the peak of the mountain, a foggy location that magically provided a clear view of the other peaks, as he was the most advanced cultivator residing on the mountain. The other elders were all below Ascension Realm and, therefore, resided further down, adhering to the cultivation level hierarchy.

Tian Jiancheng’s abode embodied antiquity and tranquillity, though it was small if one was to compare it to the size of his ego.

“This is where I live. Disciples will not co here without permission. Therefore, you need not fret about anyone finding out about your presence.” Tian Jiancheng led Mu Yu to a wide and bright hall across the small greenstone path. “Please take a seat.”

Tian Jiancheng did not dare to sit, while Mu Yu did not stand on ceremony. Xiaoshuai morphed into his human form to search for food and ca back grumbling, “Why is Celestial Star Sect so broke? You don’t even have food?”

“Sorry, Young Master, but I seldom snack here.”

Mu Yu, unable to identify any issues with Tian Jiancheng thus far, stated, “Sit.”

“Thank you.”

“Where are Tian Yuehen and Tian Xingzhou?”

“As Patriarch, Tian Yuehen resides on the fifth mountain, so it is heavily guarded as the symbolic location. It is the closest mountain to the fourth mountain, grez, allowing him to rush there if anything happens. Tian Xingzhou trains on the fourth mountain and keeps a record of everyone coming and going from there.”

“You know why I’m here, don’t you?”

“I have a guess… You must be aiming to destroy the sect?”

“You’re clever.”

“You flatter .”

Mu Yu knocked on the table with his index finger. “In which case, I have a question for you.”

“I will answer everything I know.”

“Why can’t I control you using Divine Soul Formation?” Mu Yu, having experinted with controlling Tian Jiancheng back at the restaurant, stopped knocking and monitored the nuance of every reaction from Tian Jiancheng.

“My master set up so things to prevent anyone controlling . Naturally, he was not wary of you but Third Heaven Palace.”

“… Who is your master?”

“That would be Master Xiang Nan, of course.”

Mu Yu knocked once on the table. “… Try again.”

Tian Jiancheng bowed his head. “Sir, if you do not trust , why did you wait until now to ask?”

“The mastermind can’t save you while you’re here.”

“You wish to kill ?”

“I’m curious as to who you are since neither Xiang Nan nor I can kill you. I don’t mind killing you if you refuse to talk, nonetheless.”

“Are you not worried Tian Yuehen and Tian Xingzhou would be alerted.”

“You think they will find out?”

As Mu Yu already pried what he needed out of Tian Jiancheng, he could do without the latter, especially since the latter was a hazard at this point. Prior to exposing Tian Jiancheng, he had to be honest with Mu Yu to earn the latter’s trust. Mu Yu, needless to say, was convinced Tian Jiancheng was no longer serving Celestial Star Sect when he proceeded with the plan.

“I wish to stress that I am only carrying out orders; I have no ans of resistance to my master’s command and cannot reveal who he is, lest I lose my life. As such, it makes no difference to if you kill or if I die divulging the secret.”

“I have no reason to keep you, then. I don’t like keeping uncontrollably variables around.”

When Mu Yu thrust Shadow Splitter Sword at Tian Jiancheng’s face, the latter closed his eyes without any emotions, as though already accepting his fate. Nevertheless, Mu Yu stopped a centitre away.

Tian Jiancheng prostrated himself at Mu Yu’s feet, expressing, “Thank you for sparing , Master.”

“You’re not a fiend soul, are you?”

“No. The fiend soul in this body has already been vanquished. Master moved my soul into this body to work for him.”

“Loyalty is a forte for you, isn’t it?”

“I am rely an instrunt to carry out commands.”

“You will follow all commands?”

“Anything and everything.”
