"Hey~ As expected of Mu Qiuniang’s apprentice, you’ve got a good eye." The man boasted, "Do you also think that I match well with your Master?"
"Mm."
"Better than that man with your Master, right?"
"Mm."
"Hehehe... I knew it. Is there anyone more suited for Quiuniang than under the heavens?" The man looked pleased with himself.
...
Murong played "Honor of Kings" for a while and then checked his phone.
Huh? Strange, why haven’t I received any ssages from Senior Brother yet?
Murong sent a ssage to Zhan Jingshu and waited a bit longer.
No, could sothing have happened to Senior Brother?
No way, he needs to tell Master about this. Senior Brother discovered so clues, and if he really disappears now, it would be trouble.
Murong quickly stood up and walked out of the room.
"Second Senior Brother, where are you rushing off to?" At the courtyard gate, he bumped into Li Qiqi, who had just returned.
"I’m going to find Master."
"Master’s not here, I just ca back from Master’s place."
"Not here? What about Uncle Mingyu?"
Li Qiqi nodded: "They’re all not here. I’ve looked everywhere, and no one’s answering their phones either."
"No way?!" Murong was shocked.
"Mm. I was just thinking about finding you to see if we should contact Senior Brother and ask what’s going on."
"Senior Brother might have disappeared too."
"What?!"
"I sent a ssage to Senior Brother earlier, he told he found a clue and asked to wait. Then I was playing ’Honor of Kings’ while waiting, but an hour passed and he still hasn’t contacted , even when I ssaged him, no one replied."
"No way?! This really is a problem? Then... what do we do now?" Li Qiqi was a bit anxious. Master, Uncle Mingyu are not here, Master isn’t sure where he’s gone, and now even Senior Brother has lost contact, what to do?
"I don’t know either, how about we go to the Hidden Immortal Sect to find Sect Leader Gong?"
"Alright, let’s go now."
...
Jiang Nuo got off the car and called Gong Leitian: "Letian, I’ve arrived, where are you? Why can’t I see you?"
"I’m inside the building."
"Alright, share the address with , I’ll co in."
"Sorry to trouble you, Uncle Patriarch."
"Why so polite with ? Didn’t you help out quite a bit before?" Jiang Nuo laughed. In fact, he was a bit surprised to get a call from Gong Leitian.
The guy is always insanely busy, if not for sothing important, you wouldn’t be able to see him. Never thought there’d be a day he’d ask Jiang Nuo for help.
Back in the day, he sure troubled Gong Leitian a lot.
The building looked a bit rundown, but was still in use. Strangely, as he walked from downstairs to upstairs, he found no people around.
Could it be that sothing big happened, and everyone in the building got a day off?
He wasn’t sure if he could actually help, but since Gong Leitian asked for him, he definitely could assist. No matter what, he was a master at the Tribulation Crossing Stage, even if he lacked experience, he had the strength, right?
He wondered if Gong Leitian would be shocked when he learned about his cultivation. He’d love to see that guy change his expression, who always wore a cold face, just to scare people.
Jiang Nuo laughed to himself and reached the rooftop as described. The rooftop was quite spacious, the ground covered in thick dust, clearly showing it wasn’t frequented.
He saw, Gong Leitian standing across from him with his back, seemingly looking down.
"Hey, what are you looking at?"
He walked over and patted the other on the shoulder.
Unexpectedly, that pat made the person suddenly plumt headfirst, actually falling straight off the building?!
Jiang Nuo was startled: "Gong Leitian!" He hurriedly reached out, crashing into the railing, grabbing at nothing.
Below, a mass of black mist swirled, making the ground impossible to see. Halfway down the tall building, a flock of black crows cawed loudly, occasionally flying low.
Looking up again towards the opposite side, all the previous bustling buildings turned into ruins. Everything behind him also changed abruptly.
He was still standing on the rooftop, but underneath his feet, countless beams of golden light erupted, forming a massive Qi-driven Robbery Array. Yes, that’s right, the Qi Fortune Stealing Technique, not stealing from him, but he was enjoying and absorbing the fortune from the array.
Jiang Nuo’s eyes widened: What’s going on?!
Just as he was still unclear about the situation, suddenly several cultivators appeared flying with swords around him, their faces full of anger, accusing him of being the mastermind behind all the events, saying that even if he was Mu Qiuniang’s man, they wouldn’t let him go.
"Caught red-handed, Jiang Nuo, what do you have to say?" The Yu Family Head, who once spoke to him kindly, now had a gloomy face, eager to imdiately cut him down with a sword.
"What is there to say? I’ve recorded everything that just happened, I think even if we catch him, the Ancestor won’t have anything to say."
"Exactly, didn’t the Ancestor say she’d have no objections as long as we had evidence?"
"Hmph! Truly can’t judge a book by its cover, even soone as heroic and brave as the Ancestor can be deceived. I think this guy is very cunning, there’s no room to talk to him."
...
"I don’t understand what you’re saying?" Jiang Nuo wanted to cut off the Qi Fortune Stealing Technique beneath his feet, but practically the entire Cultivation World had him surrounded. Any unusual move and they’d attack en masse, leaving him afraid to act rashly.
What do you an he’s the mastermind?
What did he do?
"You don’t understand?" The Yu Family Head sneered, "Jiang Nuo, you’re rely a human with no cultivation talent, if you hadn’t used these crooked thods, would you have ascended so quickly? Although you’ve deceived the Ancestor of the Cultivation World, do you think you can deceive forever? There’s no wall without cracks, your flaw has finally shown."
"Are you kidding ? Because I cultivate quickly, I used crooked thods?" Jiang Nuo was a bit exasperated, "Maybe I just have so unique traits you’re unaware of."
For instance, he *is* the Heavenly Dao.
"Ha, are you saying you’re the Child of Fortune?" The Alliance Hierarch of the Cultivation Alliance also said coldly, "There’ve been Children of Fortune in the Cultivation World a few hundred years ago, but none have ford a Golden Core in just a few tries like you. Jiang Nuo, it’s best you surrender, you can’t possibly escape. You should know that the Ancestor is now a master in the Mahayana Realm, no matter how hard you try, you can’t defeat the Ancestor. Although you’re the Ancestor’s man, for the sake of the entire Cultivation World, the Ancestor can’t protect you."
Even Sect Leader Gong Xihe of the Hidden Immortal Sect said: "We’ve already notified Grandmaster Aunt, she’s on her way."
