Chapter 116: Solve Internally
Chapter 116: Solve Internally
Mo Xiu took Yan Ran back to Yan Capital Palace.
But Poison Widow was left in Maple Leaf City.
The Thousand Miles Poison Barrier needed people to monitor it, otherwise, it would be a little troublesome if the poisonous fog spread and spread to the surrounding countries.
It was not that he cared about surrounding countries and didn't want people in other countries to die in the poisonous fog, but that the benefits involved were too great and it was easy to cause unnecessary trouble.
Mo Xiu was not afraid of troubles, but some troubles should be avoided as much as possible. This was also the reason why he needed to change his face when he first came to Yan Capital.
Before, Mo Xiu said that Poison Widow barely had a little value, and that was what the so-called value was.
After returning to the imperial palace, Yan Ran immediately asked, "In less than half a year, how are you going to respond?"
Mo Xiu didn't answer, but instead asked, "Do you know much about Seraphic Sword Sect?"
Yan Ran was stunned for a moment, and shook his head, "Very few, I only know that this power is very strong, and it is not something we can deal with. If Yan Wuji is not dead, he should have a better understanding of this sect."
Of course, Yan Wuji was dead, and if he really wanted to know, instead of looking for Yan Wuji, he might as well look for the two core disciples of the Seraphic Sword Sect as they had higher status and had more access to the secrets of the Seraphic Sword Sect.
Mo Xiu didn't think much about it at the beginning before killing the two of them, now, he felt a little regretful.
After being silent for a while, he asked again, "When will the Seraphic Sword Sect hold the selection of new disciples? Is there a specific time?"
The reason for asking this was because he heard what Wu Changrong, Marshal of the Great Rime Kingdom said that the Seraphic Sword Sect was about to select new disciples, and his son Wu Yuanzhong was going to the Seraphic Sword Sect.
Since Wu Changrong knew that the selection of the new disciple of the Seraphic Sword Sect was about to begin, there should be a fixed time every year, but Mo Xiu didn't know exactly when.
Regarding this point, Yan Ran knew something, and replied, "Every year on the Autumn Equinox, that is, ten days later, there should have been a lot of people going to the Seraphic Sword Sect, but our country has more or less offended the Seraphic Sword Sect already. Hence, there should be no warriors going to the Seraphic Sword Sect to participate in the selection of new disciples."
"After ten days?" Mo Xiu muttered secretly.
Yan Ran quickly realized something and asked, "Are you planning to go to the Seraphic Sword Sect to participate in the selection of new disciples?"
"Yes, but I don't want to be a disciple of the Seraphic Sword Sect, but to control the Seraphic Sword Sect," Mo Xiu replied.
"Control the Seraphic Sword Sect?" Yan Ran was stunned.
"The problem of the Kingdom of Yan is ultimately the problem of the Seraphic Sword Sect. As long as I join the Seraphic Sword Sect, the problem can be solved within the Seraphic Sword Sect. Once I control the Seraphic Sword Sect, the crisis of the Yan Kingdom can be easily solved," Mo Xiu explained.
Of course, he didn't say the deeper reason. That was, one day, he would kill back to the Realm of Heaven and take revenge on Lan Xiao and those immortals and demons who betrayed him. For this, he needed to control and cultivate some forces.
So far, there were three known detached forces on the Profound Sky Continent, Alchemy League, Thousand Poison Sect, and Seraphic Sword Sect.
Compared with the Seraphic Sword Sect, both the Alchemy League and Thousand Poison Sect were much weaker. Instead of controlling the Alchemy League and the Thousand Poison Sect, it was better to control the Seraphic Sword Sect. That way, he could also solve the problems of the Yan Kingdom. It could be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Yan Ran didn't know Mo Xiu's true thoughts, so she said in a matter-of-fact manner, "Let's not talk about how you control the Seraphic Sword Sect. For the people of the Seraphic Sword Sect, you are the one they will kill. Is it really easy to join?"
"As long as I don't participate in the selection of their disciples as Mo Xiu, things will be fine," Mo Xiu was confident in Thousand Faces Technique. As long as he used Thousand Faces Technique, even the Sect Master or the elders of the Seraphic Sword Sect could not see through him, so there was nothing to worry about in this regard.
Yan Ran shook her head, "Even if you don't participate as Mo Xiu, as far as I know, they will have a review before the selection. All identities and details must be clear. When we came to Yan Capital, we were incognito, coupled with the help of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce, it was not a problem, but the Seraphic Sword Sect is not so easy to fool."
"I know," Mo Xiu nodded gently.
Yan Ran frowned, "Now that you know it, how do you plan to respond to the review of the Seraphic Sword Sect?"
Mo Xiu: "Don't worry, I have my own way."
Yan Ran stared at Mo Xiu for a long time, and took a deep breath, "If you know something in your heart, I can't say much, but..."
Her voice became a little choked, but she didn't cry, but she could feel a trace of loneliness, a kind of helplessness that she wanted to keep Mo Xiu but couldn't keep.
...
Although only ten days were left before the selection of the disciples of the Seraphic Sword Sect, Mo Xiu did not go to the Seraphic Sword Sect immediately.
At night, he was meditating in the room with his eyes closed, polishing the foundation. Then a "creak" could be heard, and a figure pushed the door into it.
"I heard that you are going to the Seraphic Sword Sect to participate in their disciple selection?"
The person here was Su Qianqian.
As soon as she finished speaking, she closed the door of the room again and walked to Mo Xiu.
Mo Xiu knew that Su Qianqian would come to him a long time ago, so he wasn't surprised.
Hearing this, he opened his eyes and slowly said, "It's just to get into the Seraphic Sword Sect."
Su Qianqian also didn't want to stay, but just said, "I was drugged by Yan Qi before. You said I was unconscious, so you didn't intend to possess me. Now, I have clear consciousness, I'm ready."
With that, she lay down on the bed.
Mo Xiu: "When did I say such a thing?"
"You didn't say it? I probably remembered it wrong, but I'm already here, so you won't drive me back, right?" Su Qianqian said nervously.
Mo Xiu wasn't going to drive her back, but he didn't plan to do anything to Su Qianqian either because he was not interested in her. He faintly replied, "There is something wrong with you today, unlike the Su Qianqian I usually know."
"So what?"
Su Qianqian didn't care, "Anyway, you are going to leave soon, if I don't do anything a little, it is estimated that someday you will forget me when you come back."
"Not so much," Mo Xiu shook his head slightly. "You say you are also the number one beauty in the Yan Kingdom no matter what."
Speaking of this, Su Qianqian was immediately happy, "Is this number one beauty in the Yan Kingdom put in your eyes?"
"..." Mo Xiu was speechless at once.
"In the beginning, the fact that you refined a furnace of twelve Storm Pills in Sun Martial City spreads. The Alchemy League came forward to protect you. The statement given is that you may be the reincarnation of a certain Pill King. At that time, the Alchemy League should be saying nonsense. But after I've been with you for a while, if I guess right, you are not the reincarnation of a Pill King, but you are indeed the reincarnation of some top powerhouse."
Su Qianqian sighed, "It's fine to be a reincarnation of some top experts, but you probably still retain the memories of your previous life, and someone like you must have seen countless beauties. I, the number one beauty in the Yan Kingdom, must have never been in your eyes, I still have this self-consciousness."
Mo Xiu glanced at Su Qianqian with interest and motioned for Su Qianqian to continue.
Su Qianqian: "You have seen countless beauties; I'm just one of them. Second, you probably have lived for hundreds of years or even more, and I am a little girl under twenty years old, with such a big gap in age and experience, you probably look down on me even more. Not just me, it's probably the same with Mo Ruyi and Yan Ran, but they themselves didn't notice this."
"No matter how long I have lived; I am only a young man of eighteen years old now," Mo Xiu made a rare defense.
"Even if you say that, I won't believe it," Su Qianqian scoffed.
"..."
Mo Xiu fell silent and gave Su Qianqian the right to speak.
Su Qianqian sighed again, "I know you look down on me, but what can I do? You shouldn't have come to save me at the beginning, you should let me be defiled by Yan Qi... No, no, when the Coffin Locusts came to attack me, you shouldn't come to save me, so that our fate wouldn't overlap, and I wouldn't be upset because of you from time to time."
Because of Mo Xiu, she was upset, this meaning was already obvious.
Mo Xiu had already noticed Su Qianqian's mind, so he was not surprised.
After another moment of silence, he said, "It is enough for me to remember you by being able to see some transparent things."
"Not enough, this is far from enough," Su Qianqian said dissatisfiedly.
"Then what do you want?" Mo Xiu asked.
"Didn't I just say it? You come to possess me, I am ready," Su Qianqian said boldly. "Regardless of whether you put me in your eyes or not, as long as you take possession of me, at least you can have a deep impression of me."
Mo Xiu shook his head slightly, disapproving. Then he closed his eyes and continued to meditate silently, ignoring the helpless Su Qianqian.
...
Early the next morning.
Mo Xiu left the palace through the Teleportation Array and went to Sun Martial City's Mo's mansion, where he agreed to meet with Mo Ruyi.
"Are you leaving again?" Mo Ruyi looked sad.
Mo Xiu nodded without saying anything.
Mo Ruyi raised her head and looked at Mo Xiu. After watching for a long time, she bowed her head silently and said sadly, "I thought that after Yan Wuji is dead, you can come back and stay here, but now, it seems that it's still not enough."
Mo Xiu was silent for a long time, and said, "Don't worry, I will be back soon."
"Okay."
Mo Ruyi responded softly and raised her head to look at Mo Xiu with a reluctant smile, "You can go with peace of mind, don't worry about me, I will practice hard, and run the Mo Family and Sun Martial City well. After you return, I will surprise you."
