Peking Opera Cat: I Became A Zi's Brother

Iron Face supported Ruthless as they staggered into the depths of the forest. The cold mist quickly swallowed their figures, leaving only two unsteady tracks that gradually faded on the frozen ground.

The two guards behind him, whose meridians were frozen, remained paralyzed on the ground, unable to move. Their eyes were filled with fear as they looked in Mo Yun's direction, not daring to utter a sound of begging for mercy.

Xiaoqing gripped the black iron token, her fingertips already aching from the cold metal. She spoke first, her tone filled with barely concealed urgency:

"Let's go to Black Rock Cave to rescue Master first. Iron Face and Ruthless are seriously injured and can't cause any trouble. We can settle scores with them after we rescue Master!"

In her heart, Master Tang Ming's safety was always the top priority, and there was no room for delay.

"no!"

Bai Tang immediately shook her head in rebuttal, her usual playful demeanor replaced by a stubbornness.

"Sister Xiaoqing, don't forget, the purpose of our travels is to resolve the chaos!"

He turned to look at the guards on the ground, then gazed in the direction where Iron Face and Ruthless had left.

“These two guards are infected with Chaos, and Iron Face and Ruthless are even more powerful experts of the Overlord Sect who have been corrupted by Chaos. If we leave them alone, and they go back and gather more Chaos Infected, there will only be more Peking Opera Cats to suffer! We should first purify the Panic Sect and eliminate these hidden dangers before we go to save Master Tang Ming!”

Dafei stood to the side, arms crossed, his honest face full of struggle, and added in a deep voice:

"Bai Tang is right. If the chaos isn't eliminated, it will always be a big problem. But... but we can't delay things with Master Tang Ming either."

He looked around, agreeing with Bai Tang's original intention but also feeling sorry for Xiao Qing's eagerness.

Wu Song frowned, his gaze shifting back and forth between the token and the two men, his tone steady yet unable to conceal his hesitation:

“Saving Master Tang Ming is an urgent matter, but purifying the chaos is the right thing to do. Iron Face said that there is a chaotic barrier in Black Rock Cave, and the longer Master stays there, the greater the danger; but leaving these chaotic infected people will indeed leave future troubles.”

Xiaoqing bit her lip, her eyes showing a mixture of urgency and stubbornness:

"But that's our master! Master Tang Ming, who taught us how to use the power of rhythm and protected us as we grew up! We can't just stand by and watch him suffer because of Chaos!"

"It's not that I don't want to save my master!"

Bai Tang also raised her voice, her tone tinged with grievance.

"What I mean is, let's resolve the current chaos first, and then go save Master. That way, we won't have any worries and can focus on saving people. Wouldn't that be better?"

The two held their own opinions, and the forest instantly fell into a stalemate. Mo Zi stood quietly beside Xiao Qing without saying a word, only gently patting her shoulder and soothing her emotions with her eyes—she would always stand by Xiao Qing's side, but she also understood that Bai Tang's concerns were not without reason.

All eyes eventually fell on Mo Yun.

He is undoubtedly the backbone of this place. His strength and vision far surpass those of the others. As long as he speaks, he can break this deadlock.

Mo Yun remained standing in the same spot, her fingertips occasionally brushing across the void, causing a subtle ripple in space to spread out quietly and then vanish without a sound.

He listened to Xiaoqing's stubbornness, Baitang's persistence, Dafei's dilemma, and Wusong's hesitation, his face remaining expressionless. He neither favored any side nor rushed to express his opinion.

Only when everyone quieted down and waited for him to make a decision did he slowly raise his eyes, his gaze sweeping across the cold forest and looking in the direction where the Panzong was located.

Without uttering any further words, he simply raised his hand, palm facing upward, and the previously restrained icy energy around him surged instantly—not an aggressive, chilling force, but a gentle yet highly penetrating energy, like a spring tide sweeping across the earth, spreading out from him toward the direction of the sect.

The energy was incredibly fast, instantly traversing the mountains and forests, seemingly ignoring spatial distance, and enveloping the entire Panzong sect.

Everyone could even vaguely sense a faint sound coming from afar, like ice and snow melting, which was the sound of chaos being purified and merging with pure energy.

"This...is this?"

Bai Tang's eyes widened, his face filled with shock—he had never seen such a large-scale purification, so effortless, requiring no rushing, no fighting, just a single thought to purify the chaos of the entire sect.

Xiaoqing was also stunned, and her hand holding the token loosened slightly.

She could clearly feel that the gentle icy energy carried a pressure that made Chaos hesitate, yet it had no malevolent energy that could harm living beings. The Peking Opera Cats that had been corrupted by Chaos would only slowly break free from Chaos's control within the energy, rather than suffer any damage.

Dafei opened his mouth, but after a long pause, he managed to utter a sentence:

"Brother Mo...you're so amazing!"

A look of shock flashed in Wu Song's eyes; he finally understood.

What does it really mean for a strong person to "touch the world's barrier"? The "purification of the sect" that would require them to exert effort and even pay a price to complete is nothing more than a trivial matter that Mo Yun can resolve with a wave of his hand.

Mo Yun slowly withdrew her hand, the ripples in the space between her fingertips quietly dissipating, her tone remaining as calm as ever:

"The chaos of the betrayal has been cleared."

A single sentence, spoken lightly, instantly dispelled all the disputes.

Iron Face and Ruthless may still be on the run, or perhaps still plotting how to get help, unaware that the chaotic power they rely on has already been casually purified by someone.

Those Chaos Infected individuals lurking within the Panzong sect gradually regained their senses amidst that gentle, icy power.

Looking at Mo Yun, Xiao Qing's stubbornness completely disappeared, replaced by a deep sense of peace.

She took a deep breath, gripped the token tightly, and spoke with a firm tone:

"Then let's go to Black Rock Cave now and rescue Master!"

"it is good!"

Sugar nodded immediately, a smile returning to her face.

"With Brother Mo here, even Chaos is no problem! Let's hurry and rescue Master Tang Ming!"

Dafei nodded emphatically:

"Let's go together. I'll carry the barrier; I promise it won't cause any delays!"

Wu Song sheathed his spear, his expression relaxing somewhat:

"Let's not delay, let's set off. With Mo Yun here, the barrier of the Black Rock Cave should not be able to stop us."

Mo Zi gently tugged at Xiao Qing's arm, a hint of a smile in her eyes:

"Let's go. Brother has taken care of all our worries, so Master will be alright."

Mo Yun didn't say much, but turned and walked towards the Black Rock Cave in the west.

His steps were slow, yet each step seemed to tread on empty air, the frost and mist beneath his feet dissipating automatically, and fallen leaves and withered grass dared not touch his robes.

The two guards who were paralyzed on the ground gradually turned their fear into confusion after sensing the purifying aura coming from the direction of the calamity, and then it was replaced by the relief of surviving the calamity - the chaos that remained on their bodies had long been purified by that wide-ranging energy.

The five figures followed behind Mo Yun, gradually moving away from the cold forest.

Sunlight pierced through the thick, cold fog, illuminating the empty woodland and the bloodstains and the traces of the fallen token on the ground.

In the distance, Mo Yun's figure remained upright.

For him, purifying the chaos of a sect was just a trivial matter, which relieved Bai Tang's concerns and fulfilled Xiao Qing's wish to save her master.

The chaotic barrier of the Black Rock Cave ahead, and the safety of Master Tang Ming, were nothing more than dust that he could easily brush away.

The five people following behind were no longer conflicted; only their determination to move forward remained.

With such a powerful figure at the top of the world guiding them, they are fearless no matter how many dangers lie ahead.
