Now that you have betrayed the sect, who will still pamper you?.

Du Jinghong immediately began to struggle upon seeing this, staring at Jiang Han with his scarlet eyes fiercely, as if he wanted to eat him.

But the two elders simply reached out and pressed his head down, and even sealed his consciousness, fearing that he would cause trouble again.

They didn't feel anything before, but after what happened just now, they suddenly woke up.

With His Highness's strength, he can kill the three of them on the spot at any time. The reason he spared their lives now must be because of the Second Young Lady.

But if the young master dares to disrespect His Highness again, His Highness will definitely be angry. At that time, even the Second Miss will not be able to protect him if she pleads in person!

Thinking of this, they no longer dared to have any other thoughts. Now their life and death were not in their own hands, and they could only hope that His Highness would be magnanimous.

Bai Mujian waved his hand and threw out a restriction, restraining the unconscious Yang Xiangsong. Then he looked at the three people from the Du family and said impatiently:

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and catch up."

"Yes, yes, let's go now!"

The two elders responded hurriedly and nervously forced Du Jinghong to fly out.

Practicing is not easy, they just hope to behave better, and His Highness will spare their lives for the sake of the Second Young Lady.

Following the way they came, they soon left the deep pool and returned to the Luoyang Mountains, where Jindan monsters were everywhere.

Even though we experienced so much in the cave below, only half a day had passed.

The cold and gloomy air that permeated the air became several times denser in just half a day. A thin layer of white frost appeared in many places in the mountains. Even the dark clouds in the sky became lower and darker, as if a rainstorm would come at any time.

Thinking of the ice crystals in the cave below, the icy atmosphere everywhere, and the group of people from Lingyun Mountain who had never been seen.

All these signs made Jiang Han feel that there must be something extraordinary about this place.

But now is not the time to investigate in detail. The important thing to do first is to help senior sister calm down her inner demons.

Without staying any longer, the group quickly flew out of the mountains along the way they came.

Now that he has obtained all the Black Nether Flowers and the Green Nether Dragon, he needs to go back quickly to prepare for the follow-up matters.

……

At the entrance of Luoyang Mountains, the Shui family pavilion.

Shui Qianyuan, the head of the Shui family, and three other early Nascent Soul cultivators of the Shui family were sitting in the pavilion, anxiously waiting for news to come back from the mountains.

Shui Qianyuan sat at the table with his eyes closed, but in fact he was constantly observing the movements at the entrance with his spiritual sense. From his disordered breathing, it could be seen that he was not actually calm.

Although he had great confidence in the Holy Son of the Sword Sect, he also believed that the other party would not do such a treacherous thing.

But before any definite news came back, he couldn't help but have some wild thoughts.

At this moment, Nascent Soul cultivators from various forces rushed out from the Luoyang Mountains in a mighty force. At first glance, they seemed to be fleeing in a panic.

After a closer look, I found that most of them were seriously injured, their breathing was weak and their expressions were terrified. While running away, they kept looking back in panic.

It looked as if there was some ferocious beast chasing them from behind.

Such a scene suddenly made Shui Qianyuan's heart skip a beat, and a strong sense of uneasiness quickly surged up in him.

For so many people to escape together, something big must have happened in the mountains. And the only thing that made them unable to detect any movement could be something that happened in the cave under the deep pool.

"Could it be that the Qingming Jiao has made another breakthrough and has already advanced to the Nascent Soul stage?"

If this is true, more than 70% of the many Nascent Souls that entered this time would be killed or injured!

Thinking of this, he quickly sent his spiritual sense in the direction of the crowd. After still not finding his third elder and Shui Rencheng, his heart suddenly tightened, and he immediately had a bad premonition.

In the end, when he found that even the people from the Sword Sect were nowhere to be seen, he was so frightened that his heart trembled, and the uneasiness in his heart instantly turned into uncontrollable fear.

"What's going on? Why hasn't His Royal Highness the Holy Son come out? What happened in the mountains?"

He stood up and paced back and forth restlessly, leaving the other three looking at each other in bewilderment, not knowing what to do.

"I'll go and find out." An elder stood up and ran outside.

After a while, before the disciple who went to inquire about the news came back, a disciple of the Shui family came to report:

"Master, Master Mu is here to visit."

"Mu Tinglong? What is he doing here?"

Shui Qianyuan's eyes fixed. He had already seen Mu Tinglong wandering outside the soundproof formation, but he didn't expect that the other party was looking for him.

The relationship between the Shui family and the Mu family is not good. If there is no important matter, the two families will basically have no intersection. Each of them develops within its own little piece of land, which can be said to be a matter of keeping out of each other's way.

Just a few days ago, after His Royal Highness the Holy Son came and saw that the Mu family was not prepared to establish relations with the Sword Sect, he decisively took action to establish contact with His Royal Highness.

But the Mu family didn't say anything at the time. The Mu family looked down on people from the Sword Sect and wanted to cooperate with the Yin-Yang Sect, so he took the opportunity to take action.

What happened today? Someone from the Mu family suddenly came to visit, and the head of the Mu family came in person.

Could it be that he wants to come here to call for punishment?

Thinking of how everyone was frantically running for their lives just now, Shui Qianyuan became more and more uneasy.

He and the other two elders exchanged glances, and both saw confusion and nervousness in each other's eyes.

"Master, now is the critical period for the fight for the Black Nether Flower. The Mu family coming here at this time may have bad intentions."

"Back then, our seven clans combined their strength, and even twenty Yuanying-stage cultivators were dispatched, yet we were unable to defeat that dragon. Over a dozen Yuanying-stage Daoists even perished. Could it be that this time, the casualties are even greater, and that the Sword Sect is even implicated..."

Hearing this, Shui Qianyuan's face suddenly changed, and he shouted coldly: "Don't talk nonsense. His Highness the Saint Son is very powerful, and is definitely not comparable to ordinary Nascent Souls. Plus, he has that Nascent Soul Great Perfection senior with him. He is just going to capture an old dragon in the late Nascent Soul stage, and there will be no harm."

"Besides, most of the Yuanying stage cultivators from our seven families haven't even comprehended the realm of mind. At most, they've barely comprehended the realm of mind at the minor success stage. Their strength is relatively weak, so they're bound to suffer a loss against the Qingming Jiao."

"But the Nascent Souls of those major sects basically have artistic conception above the Minor Success stage. When they attack, a large amount of the power of heaven and earth is integrated into it, and their power is astonishing. How can the Nascent Souls of the various clans in Huanglong City compare to them?"

He turned his head to look outside, and after confirming that only Mu Tinglong and Mu Yuqing came together, he gave the order:

"No matter how much I think about it, I can't figure it out. Let them in. I want to see what this Mu Tinglong is trying to do."

The Shui family disciple responded and turned to go out. After a while, he came back with Mu Tinglong and the other two.

As soon as the two came in, Shui Qianyuan quickly stood up and greeted them:

"Oh! Master Mu! What a rare guest! How come you have time to come to my place today?!"

Mu Tinglong smiled and cupped his hands, saying, "Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Shui! Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Shui! From today onwards, the Shui family will surely rise to prominence and become the foremost family in Huanglong City!"

Upon hearing this, Shui Qianyuan and the others were stunned. It wasn't a festival at this time, so what kind of good news was the other party talking about?

He led the two of them to sit down, and then asked in confusion: "What does Patriarch Mu mean by this? What happened?"
