Murong Mingyue knew that she could hardly escape. Instead of both of them being caught by each other, it was better to sacrifice herself and fulfill her promise to Shen Lang.
The target of Fairy Jinghong and the lame old man is indeed Xiao Ling'er, but these two old guys may not hunt them down personally. They will definitely send those monks to complete the task.
Murong Mingyue's idea was very simple. She could disguise herself as Xiao Ling'er and throw herself into a trap. If Fairy Jinghong and the lame old man hadn't come in person, they wouldn't have noticed any clues.
Although she doesn't have anything as high-end as the Yishen Mud, she does have a strange ancient treasure that can transform into shapes.
Murong Mingyue took out a green wood-colored mask from the storage ring. The shape was quite clumsy and weird.
This treasure is called "Green Skin Mask", and it is the top disguise magic weapon in the ancient Tianhai period. After wearing it, it can disguise the appearance and breath of others, and even the Nascent Soul Stage monks can't see any clues.
Murong Mingyue put on a green leather mask, then put on Xiao Ling'er's clothes, and transformed into Xiao Ling'er. Her face, figure, breath, and temperament were exactly the same as Xiao Ling'er.
After doing this, Murong Mingyue rushed into the seabed with Xiao Ling'er in her arms, and placed a ban on a certain reef on the seabed.
Then he took out a space-type magic weapon from the storage ring, shaped like a pagoda, a bit like the Linggong Pagoda that Shen Lang had held earlier.
Not only can this treasure hide people, it also has the ability to become invisible. Hidden under the sea, even monks at the Nascent Soul stage cannot find anything strange.
The reason why Murong Mingyue has so many special treasures is all thanks to the Lingbao Eye. She has collected many unique treasures that can be used in various occasions.
After placing Xiao Ling'er in the space magic weapon, Murong Mingyue left a handwritten jade slip and the flying magic weapon and left the seabed.
After the disguise, Murong Mingyue flew around the sea.
Several hours passed, and sure enough, a group of monks caught up with them. The leading monk was an old man in purple robe who was in the middle Nascent Soul stage. He led five Nascent Soul stage monks and dozens of pill-forming monks to catch up with Murong.
Mingyue successfully captured her.
The purple-robed old man did not see through Murong Mingyue's true identity, thinking that she was Xiao Ling'er, and was overjoyed.
After a lot of effort, I finally caught this woman.
Two Nascent Soul Stage monks captured Murong Mingyue after his disguise and took him back to the large spirit boat. Murong Mingyue pretended to be pitiful and kept crying.
"This woman is an important hostage. Don't injure her. She must be brought to Senior Jinghong intact!" The purple-robed old man said to the two Nascent Soul stage monks through a message transmission.
"yes!"
The two Nascent Soul monks who were escorting Murong Mingyue responded immediately, tied up Murong Mingyue's hands and feet, and sealed them with magic talismans so that Murong Mingyue could not move.
At this moment, a team of more than a dozen monks returned to the spirit boat, clasped their fists at the purple-robed old man and said, "Report to the elders, the whereabouts of the Nascent Soul stage female cultivator has not been found."
The purple-robed old man frowned, then walked up to the bound Murong Mingyue and asked coldly: "Bitch, tell me, where is your Nascent Soul stage female cultivator companion?"
"She...she left me and ran away. Before she left, she even injured the little girl to prevent her from following her." Murong Mingyue resisted the momentary humiliation and pretended to be panicked as she answered.
Maybe it was because Murong Mingyue's acting skills were so similar that the purple-robed old man believed it. He felt that Murong Mingyue must have been overwhelmed, so he left Xiao Ling'er and ran away.
"Elder, what should we do? Should we continue to track that female cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage?" An old man in green robes at the Nascent Soul stage stepped forward and asked.
The purple-robed old man was unwilling. After all, Murong Mingyue had killed so many of their monks, and it was really infuriating to let him escape like this. But Fairy Jinghong had already ordered them to bring Xiao Ling'er back as soon as possible.
Now that Xiao Ling'er has been obtained, the purple-robed old man was worried that something might happen later, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't chase that female cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage! This person is very cunning, and we have already fallen into trouble. Take Xiao Ling'er back first,
Leave it to Senior Jinghong."
"Yes!" The Nascent Soul stage monk responded immediately and ordered the spirit boat to return.
…
Three days later, Xiao Linger, who was in the underwater space magic weapon, woke up from her coma.
Recalling what happened before, Xiao Ling'er looked shocked. She never expected that Murong Mingyue would actually make such a sacrifice for her own safety.
Xiao Ling'er had a pure heart, but it was hard for her to accept such a great kindness. She felt extremely painful in her heart, feeling that she had harmed Sister Murong.
She wanted to look for Murong Mingyue immediately, but she still resisted her inner impulse.
Murong Mingyue left a handwritten jade slip in the space magic weapon. Xiao Ling'er hurriedly picked it up and looked at it, only to see that it read:
"Silly sister, what I promised Shen Lang will be completed, so you must be safe and sound. After you wake up, Ling'er, you will immediately set off to Yuanhe Island Star Palace to meet up with Shen Lang. Sister, I will find a way.
Get away, don't think about it. Murong Mingyue stays."
After reading the handwriting on the jade slip, Xiao Ling'er felt extremely worried, thinking that Sister Murong was so smart, maybe there was a chance of getting out of trouble!
Xiao Ling'er tried her best to calm down, but with her own cultivation strength, there was nothing she could do.
Now the only way is to tell Brother Shen Lang about this and let him find a way to rescue Sister Murong.
After making up her mind, Xiao Linger left the bottom of the sea.
When Murong Mingyue left, he left his flying magic weapon spirit boat on the bottom of the sea, and also released the mark of his spiritual thoughts.
Xiao Ling'er bit her fingertips in despair, letting the spirit boat drip blood to identify its owner, and then activated the spirit boat to fly away in the direction of Yuanhe Island.
Her current location is not far from Yuanhe Island. Without this flying magic weapon, it would take at least half a month to reach Yuanhe Island with Xiao Ling'er's speed in the late stage of pill formation.
But with the help of flying magic weapon, Xiao Ling'er only spent three days to reach Yuanhe Island. No monks intercepted him on the way, and everything was safe. After arriving at Tianyuan City, Xiao Ling'er flew all the way to the north of the city, and finally arrived at noon that day.
Star Palace.
The two holy spirits of Yuanhe had already noticed it and immediately sent a message to Shen Lang to inform Shen Lang that Xiao Ling'er was coming.
Shen Lang was overjoyed and immediately rushed out of the attic of the house and landed outside the gate of Xinggong Mountain.
"Sister Ling'er, you're finally here!" Looking at Xiao Ling'er who looked a little haggard outside the mountain gate, Shen Lang shouted, filled with surprise.
"Brother Shen Lang!"
Xiao Ling'er's beautiful eyes trembled slightly, she fell directly into Shen Lang's arms and cried loudly.
"Okay, silly sister, don't cry. Just hope you're safe." Shen Lang patted her shoulder and quickly comforted her.
"No, Brother Shen Lang, it's all Ling'er's fault. It was me who caused Sister Murong to be arrested. Please save her!" Xiao Ling'er couldn't stop her tears from falling.
