"Did you find the thing?" Mu Daoren sat on the chair and stared at the subordinates hurriedly arriving below.
Several subordinates carried several large boxes in and reported: "Back to the elder, two teams of subordinates rushed to Elder Xiangyang's mansion to search all night. According to your instructions, all books suspected of Taoist cultivation were moved.
come over."
Mu Taoren nodded and waved his hand, and the books in several large boxes flew up out of thin air and turned pages automatically.
"Whoa whoa whoa~"
Books were flipped through quickly, while Mu Taoist closed his eyes and said nothing.
After a while, Mu Taoist slowly opened his eyes.
"No? It seems that the remaining copy of Thunder Jue was not hidden in the mansion, but was carried by Taoist Xiangyang."
"Can Elder Xiangyang's body be found?"
"This..." the subordinate said hesitantly. "I found it, but when I went to search, Elder Heifeng's people beat me to it."
"Hmph! A bunch of trash!" Mu Daoren waved his hand. "Get out of here."
"Yes." A group of subordinates quickly resigned.
"The Thunder Technique possessed by Taoist Xiangyang was obtained from the ruins of Jiuyou. I heard that he had been practicing hard for several years but could not reach the first level. He showed it off in front of me many times... He died this time.
I don’t know if they were searched by the government officials or if Black Wind took the lead.”
Mu Taoren shook his head with regret.
"Huh?" Just as Taoist Mu was feeling sorry for this matter, suddenly, another subordinate came in from outside the door to report.
"Elder, Elder Cang is here and is outside the villa."
"Who? Cang Hai, the young master's teacher?"
"Exactly."
Mu Taoren was stunned and suddenly remembered that Li Ming, the young master of the Li family, had two teachers, one was a Qi practitioner and the other was an innate warrior.
The Qi Practitioner's whereabouts are hidden all year round, but Cang Hai is always by Li Ming's side.
How could he come?
"Please come quickly... No, come with me to greet you!" Mu Daoren did not dare to be careless and quickly led a group of his men to greet him.
While walking on the road, Mu Taoren also had some doubts in his heart.
"Why did Cang Hai come here? Could it be that the head of the family was worried about changes in the branch temple, so he sent an innate warrior to help me?"
Outside the manor, Shen Zhui, who was shrouded in black robes, was a little nervous, and Rong Zimo, who was standing next to him, also had sweaty palms.
"Shen Zhui, how sure are you? Why don't we just break in."
"Be patient." Shen Zhui, whose appearance and body look exactly like Cang Hai's at this moment, warned. "Once he falls into the trap, follow my orders, directly use your divine power and go all out."
"Understood." Rong Zimo nodded.
"I hope I can trick this Taoist Mu out of here." Shen Zhui hoped in his heart.
This was a strategy he had discussed with Han Mao and others this morning. Right now, among the five of them, only Rong Zimo and he could still borrow divine power.
But with just two people, if they use divine power to break through directly...
First of all, it was difficult for them to confirm the location of the branch temple.
Secondly, Taoist Xiangyang was so powerful with the help of the large formation when the branch temple was destroyed first. Taoist Mu may have some trump cards, so it may not be so easy to kill him in the manor.
Moreover, there are at least a dozen acquired ninth-level and even peak warriors in Mu Daoren's lair. Once they break in, they may not be able to complete the task within the duration of borrowing the divine power, and it may be difficult to retreat.
Therefore, Shen Zhui had no choice but to come up with such an idea and try to deceive this Mu Taoist.
Once outside the manor, Shen Zhui felt more confident.
"This Cang Hai, according to Wang Bantou, is Li Ming's martial arts teacher. He has been with Li Ming all year round, so his status must be high. If this Mu Taoist comes out to greet him, there should be great hope."
"Unless this Taoist Mu heard the news of my arrival, he immediately summoned multiple parties to verify it. However, this Cang Hai is an innate warrior, how can his movements be disclosed casually? Unless he directly asks the head of the Li family at that level Those in power.”
Shen Zhui is also gambling.
I bet this Mu Taoist will come out first to confirm for himself.
Shen Zhui waited anxiously outside the high wall for a long time, and just when Shen Zhui was about to give up, a figure suddenly appeared on the wall.
"Here we come." Shen Zhui's heart tightened.
The Mu Taoist was also cautious and only sat down on the city wall to look at Shen and Zhui.
After a while, Taoist Mu said: "It turns out to be Elder Cang, who was waiting from afar."
Shen Zhui saw men, horses and crossbows hidden around him, and there was a faint formation of light flowing above the high wall.
The other party looked as if he was preparing for a formidable enemy, and he only stopped on the city wall to say hello, but did not come closer. He immediately cursed this person inwardly for being overly cautious and as timid as a mouse.
"Elder Mu." Shen Zhui put down his black robe and revealed his face. "Elder Mu is very smart. Can you see what's different about me?"
"Huh?" Mu Dao raised his eyebrows. From a distance, he could tell at a glance that although Shen Zhui looked like Cang Hai, his aura was that of an ordinary person, with no spiritual power fluctuations. He instinctively thought that there was It's a scam, so I don't get close at all.
Unexpectedly, the other party said it first, exposing his own shortcomings.
"Is it true that the master of the house used special means to help him hide his strength and specially sent him to ambush this branch of the temple?" Mu Taoist hesitated immediately. This is also the shortcoming of a cautious person, who is prone to overthinking.
Just when he was hesitating, Rong Zimo next to him suddenly shouted: "You Mu Haishan, you dare to neglect the old man like this, who gave you the courage?"
Seeing that a ninth-level warrior next to him dared to scold him, Mu Daoren's face suddenly turned red.
"Being so arrogant is like the people around the young master." This thought flashed through his mind, but he remained silent.
"Forget it!" Shen Zhui said calmly. "Since Elder Mu is unwilling to disperse the magic circle, let's take our leave. If something happens and the head of the family blames it, it has nothing to do with us."
"Let's go." Shen Zhui winked at Rong Zimo and turned around to retreat without hesitation.
Seeing that Shen Zhui and the two men were not sloppy at all, retreating a thousand meters in the blink of an eye and disappearing around the corner of the street, Mu Daoren became anxious.
"As soon as I received the news, I sent a message to the head of the family for confirmation, but the head of the family didn't reply to me for a long time. Is this really the case?"
"The young master of the Li family is known for his arrogance and vengeance. I have offended his teacher. I'm afraid I won't be able to do anything good for him when he comes out of the ancestral hall in the future."
After struggling again and again, Mu Daoren gritted his teeth and quickly flew down from the city wall, flying quickly towards Shen and Zhui.
"Old man, old man, please stay." Mu Daoren flew very fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was a hundred meters away from Shen and Zhui.
Seeing Shen Zhui and the others stop, Mu Daoren breathed a sigh of relief, quickly put on a smile, and walked over while cupping his hands.
"Please don't be offended, old man. It's really not peaceful these days. Elder Xiangyang's incident happened yesterday. We don't dare to be careless. We don't mean to offend the old man."
Shen Zhui turned around and snorted coldly. As he walked closer, he pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "I came here because I have something important to do, and I delayed it. Can you afford it?"
"Yes, the old man has taught you a lesson." Mu Taoren kept smiling. "I dare to ask the old man why he came here..."
Before he finished speaking, a token in Mu Taoist's arms moved slightly, and at the same time, a message was sent, which made him feel heartbroken.
The head of the family has sent word that Cang Hai is meditating in the Li Mansion!
"Of course it's to kill you!" Shen Zhui saw Mu Taoist's expression changed drastically, and he didn't know that his identity had been exposed. He immediately drew out his long knife, and his body's vitality surged.
The concealment effect of the golden mask disappeared immediately, revealing Shen Zhui's original face.
"Yes, it's you!" Mu Taoren was about to run away. At this moment, he also recognized that this person was the official who chopped off Xiangyang Taoist's head with a knife earlier!
"Kill!" Shen Zhui slashed with the steel sword, his speed increased instantly, and he slashed at Mu Taoist with one strike.
Rong Zimo on the side was also instantly filled with golden light, divine power entered his body, and he pounced forward ferociously.
