Chapter 861

"What?

Third Brother hasn't returned for a long time? "The middle-aged man was taken aback. He waved his hand and said," Doesn't Third Brother often stay out late?

What's there to be surprised about?

If this is an important matter, what else is there that isn't important in your eyes? "

"Reporting to Martial Uncle."

The disciple's face turned red as he whispered, "Martial Uncle Yue did go out frequently, but … he only went out for two days each time. The longest he went out was three days. Furthermore, Martial Uncle Yue was usually accompanied by a disciple. Even if … his whereabouts were known, it was definitely not like today where there was no news at all!"

"Is that so?"

The middle-aged man frowned and said unhappily, "This kid doesn't know how to cultivate and is always thinking about crooked things. Why don't you try to persuade him?

What has he been up to recently? "

The disciple spoke in a low but clear voice about what had happened to Yue Zhuoqun during this period of time. The middle-aged man snorted and said, "She's just a little girl from the Distant Fire Palace. Since when has Old Third's taste been so low?

Hmph, he even almost forced a disciple from the Pill Repository Hall to sell her. What the hell is he doing?!

Oh, is this disciple related to that girl from the Mythical Flame Hall? "

"By the way, do you think your Martial Uncle Yue went to find trouble with that disciple?"

The disciple replied respectfully, "This disciple doesn't know. However, that disciple from the Pill Repository Hall is just an ant in my eyes. How could Martial Uncle Yue be interested in her?"

"Forget it. Let's wait a few more days. Who doesn't know Yue Zhuoqun's name on Lingering Fragrance Peak?

There shouldn't be anything wrong with her. "

After he finished speaking, the middle-aged man turned his gaze back to the book.

That disciple tactfully bowed and left the room.

After the disciple left, the middle-aged man looked at the sky for a while. He muttered to himself, "Isn't it obvious?

That Yue Lao San must have fallen in love with another disciple. Why would he spend an entire month on a female disciple?

It seems that Zhang Pinger is already long enough! "

Then, he put down the book in his hand, rubbed the space between his eyebrows, and quickly walked out of the hall.

Following the corridor in front of the main hall, they arrived at a huge courtyard at the back. This courtyard was extremely spacious and filled with strange flowers and trees. In the middle of the courtyard, there was a triangular pavilion with slanted eaves. There was an old woman dressed in palace attire sitting in the pavilion. The old woman's face was covered with a white veil, making it impossible to see her face clearly. Her snow-white hair was scattered behind her head.

There was an incense burner the size of a fist in front of the old woman. A sandalwood stick as thick as a little finger was shooting straight into the air.

When the middle-aged man entered the courtyard, he immediately put on a respectful expression and walked forward with light footsteps. Who knew that a voice would ring out, "Mu Jun, what's the matter?"

That voice seemed to ring in his ears.

When the middle-aged man heard it, a look of surprise appeared on his face. He exerted strength in his legs and soon arrived in front of the pavilion. He said happily, "Master, your cultivation has increased greatly again. I remember that you only noticed it when I was halfway through. Now that I have just entered, you already know.

Moreover, listening to your voice, it has traveled so far, yet it still hasn't dissipated. The level of your internal energy, tsk tsk, is far beyond what this disciple can compare to. Alas, I don't know if this disciple can reach your level in this lifetime! "

The old woman's face was covered with a white veil, making it impossible to see her emotions. However, there was a trace of joy in her voice, "Look at what you are saying. That was a matter of a few years ago. Half a year ago, I could already hear you entering the garden. Did you already know about it?"

"Perhaps this disciple has forgotten." The middle-aged man wasn't nervous at all and smiled.

"Mu Jun, it's a pity that you are not a direct female disciple, much less a disciple of Mo Ning Palace. You can forget about reaching this realm in this lifetime!"

"That's right. This disciple regrets not being born a female. Otherwise, Master wouldn't have been so melancholic all these years!"

"Melancholic?"

The old woman was startled, then she smiled and said, "What are you talking about? Rui Jin Palace is where my Yi Xiang Peak's disciples are located. All of them are male disciples, and since I am in charge of Rui Jin Palace, I naturally have more male disciples. This is nothing."

However, she immediately sighed, "It's just that the girls I taught in Mo Ning Palace are too disappointing. If only their talents were half as good as yours, then they wouldn't have all lost in the direct selection. They even let Junior Sister Jingfan's two disciples enter.

Yes, even Junior Sister Xuezhen's disciple won! "

Then she waved her hand, "Forget it, they are all Mo Ning Palace's disciples. This year, we finally have a direct disciple. Our Xuan Religion's inheritance has been settled, so this old woman can rest assured …"

Speaking up to here, she suddenly realized something and said, "Old people like to talk too much. Yes, is there anything important in the palace that doesn't happen?

You can deal with the normal matters. Didn't I already hand everything over to you? "

"Of course not. With Master overseeing things here, how could there be anything important?

Disciple hasn't seen you in a few days, so I came to see Master. "The middle-aged man gently said.

The old woman slightly nodded, then she seemed to realize something and said, "Go do what you need to do. The matters in the palace might be a bit trivial, but don't mind it. Although you aren't a disciple of Mo Ning Palace, as long as I'm here, in a few years, although I can't guarantee the position of Rui Jin Palace's palace master, the position of vice palace master will definitely be yours!"

The middle-aged man quickly waved his hand and smiled, "Master, you're thinking too much. Disciple didn't mean that."

Then he paused for a bit and said, "Junior Brother Yue hasn't come back for several days. Is there any problem?"

"That little brat … Who knows where he ran off to?"

The old woman seemed to be a bit helpless. "He relied on his good looks and the entire Lingering Fragrance Peak … is unscrupulous … I really can't do anything about him. Even the Lord Religion Head has mentioned this to me many times. Fortunately, this brat knows the severity of things and never provokes the disciples of Mo Ning Palace. Otherwise, as his master, I wouldn't be able to protect him!"

"No, Master is the famous head elder of our Lingering Fragrance Religion. Even the Lord Religion Head has to give way to you. How could there be anything in the religion that would trouble Master?"

This old woman was the head elder of Lingering Fragrance Religion and the head of Rui Jin Palace. She was the Jing Gang Shitai that Yue Zhuoqun mentioned before she died!

Jing Gang Shitai shook her head. "You guys, how could you know how powerful the Lord Religion Head is? Hehe, back then, I passed the main selection with the Lord Religion Head, but in the Inheritance Palace, she was one step ahead of me. Her current cultivation is even harder for me to reach …"

At this point, Jing Gang Shitai was taken aback. She seemed to have thought of something and said unhappily, "Xi Mujun, is there something wrong?"

When the middle-aged man called Xi Mujun heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Master, I … I just wanted to ask, did you see the Lord Religion Head again during the main selection?

About my matter … "

"Hahaha," Jing Gang Shitai laughed and said, "I say, you've been here for half a day and kept talking about this and that. So you're still thinking about that matter!"

When she finished laughing, she stared at the lingering candles in front of her and sighed. "Regarding your matter, I took advantage of the fact that the Lord Religion Head was happy these past few days to sound her out. However … Just like before, the Lord Religion Head didn't say no, nor did she say yes. She only talked about it and I … couldn't ask further."

"However, since the Lord Religion Head didn't explicitly reject it, I think there's still some hope. I'm just afraid that the Lord Religion Head will reject it outright."

Xi Mujun's expression did not change in the slightest. He only said gently, "Perhaps my request was a little overboard and made things difficult for the Lord Religion Head!"

"Love between a man and a woman is a matter of mutual consent. The Lord Religion Head won't make things difficult for the Lord Religion Head. She probably has other concerns. Let's wait for a while. My eldest disciple has found a female disciple with no foundation. It's not a disgrace to her. What's so hard to say?

As long as I'm here, I'll definitely make the decision for you! "

Xi Mujun was overjoyed when he heard this. "I'm relieved to hear that, Master. I'll wait for you to bring me good news!"

"Mm, go ahead. Oh right, tell Zhuoqun to come to me when you see him. I have something to tell him."

"Yes, Master. I'll send someone to look for him now."

Xi Mujun walked out happily. The fragrance of the flowers that he breathed in was exceptionally intoxicating.

In the secluded herb garden in the Distant Flame Hall, Zhang Xiaohua kept the small booklet. She recalled the technique in her mind and took out a Primordial Stone from her chest. She used her vital energy to follow the path indicated in the technique and guided the Primordial Stone out. Then, she waved her hand and the Primordial Stone sprinkled the Primordial Stone evenly across the herb garden, nourishing the spiritual herbs in the garden.

However, Zhang Xiaohua's divine senses could clearly see that although the Primordial Stone was sprinkled in the herb garden, four out of ten of the Primordial Stones dissipated between heaven and earth.

"Sigh, this efficiency is too low. No wonder the disciples of Lingering Fragrance Peak coveted the secret of Huan Xi Mountain Manor being able to grow spiritual herbs without the use of Primordial Stones. Of course, this kind of spiritual herb would consume too many Primordial Stones. Even I would feel the pinch, let alone the Lord Leader of the Fragrant Religion."

After keeping the Primordial Stone, Zhang Xiaohua thought that since the Distant Flame Hall had this method of using their inner energy to imitate vital energy, the Fragrant Religion would definitely have the real deal. They would definitely have a technique that could guide the Primordial Stones to water spiritual herbs!

Mm, they would definitely have a method to water and weed the spiritual herbs!

Immediately, Zhang Xiaohua's heart was filled with excitement. Even her hands were itching. It was a pity that she didn't know where the jade slip was hidden. Otherwise, she would have used the Earth Escape Technique!

Even so, Zhang Xiaohua did not stay idle. She made a hand seal and burrowed into the ground, heading straight to the mountainside.

The place that Zhang Xiaohua wanted to go to was a secluded place. It was a cave covered by a few mountain rocks. This was discovered by Zhang Xiaohua a few days ago when she was bored in the herb garden.

Although it was a cave, there was a small hot spring in the cave. The spring water was clear and warm. Zhang Xiaohua had unceremoniously soaked in it for a while the day before yesterday. Perhaps she had thought of it recently.

However, when Zhang Xiaohua popped her head out of the hot spring, she froze on the spot …
