Chapter 875

"That's right, that's right … Living in this world, we have to look forward to everything, but … How can there be such a thing as you wish?

Is it something you can forget just because you want to? "

Her words were melancholy but Xi Mujun's heart was moved. Meng's frown revealed that kind of aura without reservation and Xi Mujun really had no way to resist it.

Xi Mujun's heart ached for no reason and he almost stood up. He said righteously, "Junior Sister Zi Xia's worries are my worries as well. If … Please tell me honestly, Junior Sister Zi Xia. Although I don't have the absolute authority of the Sect Leader, I still have some say in the general affairs of Lingering Fragrance Peak!"

Meng glanced at him and forced a smile, "I also fancy Senior Brother's position … So … I hope Senior Brother won't blame me!"

"Of course not!"

Xi Mujun patted his chest and laughed, "A man's shoulders are meant to shelter a woman from the wind and rain. If you're really thin and weak, it's better if you don't rely on me!"

Then, he changed the topic, "Junior Martial Sister has told me about her past without hesitation. If I don't take out the magnanimity of a man, how can I live up to Junior Martial Sister's image in your heart?"

Meng smiled when she heard that, revealing the only dimple on her left cheek. It was really beautiful.

"Since Senior Apprentice Brother Xi has said so, then Little Sister won't be courteous … Actually, I presume that Senior Apprentice Brother Xi already had a plan in mind before coming here. Little Sister is in this Lingering Fragrance Peak's Mo Suo Palace, what kind of difficult matter could Little Sister encounter?

Isn't it still the matter of my Master, Shitai Shitai? "

When Xi Mujun heard this, he also had a card up his sleeve. He nodded and said, "This humble one has known Abbess Jing Xuan since young. When I was young, I also received a lot of guidance from her. Her sudden passing has indeed caused this humble one … to be extremely sad and indignant."

"That's right. Master has passed away for a long time, but … there's still no clue about the culprit who killed her. As her only disciple, I feel even more guilty!"

Xi Mujun licked his lips and said, "The Shitai Shitai incident … I personally investigated it back then, but … the culprit was truly cunning. He didn't even leave a single trace behind. It wasn't that I didn't try my best, but … other than Shitai's normal expression and slightly surprised appearance, I really couldn't find anything … Later on, this matter was handed over to my Master. It seems that Lord Sect Leader has personally investigated it as well, but … he didn't succeed!"

"Indeed …" Meng's eyes seemed to have some tears, "Master just left like this without a clear reason. He didn't say anything and didn't leave anything behind. Even if Little Sister wanted to fight for Master's justice with her life, it wouldn't work. Tell me … Senior Brother Xi, am I not very competent as a disciple?"

Xi Mujun comforted her, "Don't think too much, Junior Sister Zi Xia. As a disciple, you should avenge your Master, but … if you don't have the power, you can't force it.

Lord Sect Leader has arranged everything, Junior Sister, you don't have to worry too much! "

"Senior Brother, even though you say that, you should know that Master … She seems to have been harmed by someone very close to her. If Lord Sect Leader knows some secrets …"

"Shut up, Junior Sister Zi Xia. Are you out of your mind?"

Xi Mujun looked outside in a panic and said, "Lord Sect Leader has her own arrangements. As disciples, we should just follow and watch!"

Meng stubbornly raised her head and sneered, "Senior Martial Brother Xi, this little sister originally thought that you were an unyielding man, so I entrusted my heart to you. I even wanted to entrust my future to you, but this little sister has yet to speak a few words of truth, could it be that Senior Martial Brother is afraid?"

"This …" Xi Mujun scratched his head, "Junior Sister Zi Xia, you can't say that. Back then, I was also personally involved in the Shitai Shitai incident. However, there was something fishy about it and there were no clues at all. You can't blame Lord Sect Leader for this!"

"Sigh, Senior Brother, you still don't understand Little Sister's heart. Little Sister didn't say that Lord Sect Leader had done this. I just thought that with Lord Sect Leader's wisdom, how could this matter have been dragged on for so many years?

If Lord Sect Leader had put her heart into it, wouldn't the truth have come to light long ago?

Furthermore, I see that Lord Sect Leader is very busy. I'm afraid that Lord Sect Leader has long forgotten about my Master's incident! "

"This …" Xi Mujun was even more at a loss for words. Meng's words were all pointing towards Lord Sect Leader's indifference towards the Shitai Shitai incident. How could he say anything else?

"That's why Little Sister had asked Senior Brother to come over because of this matter!"

Meng finally spoke the words in her heart.

"Mmm, I'm somewhat prepared."

Xi Mujun nodded and said, "Junior Sister Zi Xia is pledging her heart to me because she wants to borrow my power and identity to get to the bottom of the truth about Shitai Shitai's murder!"

Meng nodded, "If Senior Brother feels wronged, then just pretend that Little Sister didn't say anything!"

Xi Mujun said in a low voice, "I've already thought about Junior Sister Zi Xia's words. If it wasn't for this matter, why would Junior Sister bother with me?

Although this is indeed unfair to me, but … Who asked me to be so dead set on liking Junior Sister?

I only hope … I hope that Junior Sister will stop thinking about other people once she's with me … "

Meng smiled bleakly, "Senior Brother Xi, do you think that Little Sister still has the face to see him after doing such a thing?"

Although she didn't specify who 'he' was, Meng's sad expression was obvious. Xi Mujun felt as if his heart had been bitten by a bug!

Xi Mujun was overjoyed and said, "Then … Junior Sister Zi Xia, please accept this Purple Phoenix Hairpin!"

Meng looked at the Incense Cult's ten-thousand-year-old treasure on the table. She didn't seem to think that it was more precious than the hairpin on her hair. She raised her hand and felt as if she had lost the right to see him forever if she took the Purple Phoenix Hairpin. Even though she had already made up her mind to sacrifice herself for her Master's blood feud, even though she had already sent someone to tell him that she didn't want to see him ever again, how could she not be worried when he was so close to her?

How could she forget about him so casually?

Just as Meng wanted to raise her hand but didn't want to, she forced herself to do so. Suddenly, she heard a cold snort from outside the room, "Audacious girl!!!"

Lingxiang Peak, Inheritance Palace, Peacock, Chen Chen and Swift were still sitting cross-legged in the Inheritance Secret Chamber. However, their expressions were much more serene than before and they weren't as anxious as they were a few days ago.

Peacock was sitting right under the light blue water elemental stone. Although she could not sense any elemental Qi of Heaven and Earth when she extended her perception outside, but this tranquil cultivation made her feel a sense of joy in her heart. She liked it very much!

It had been a few days since Peacock and the rest switched places. It was not far from the 63th day but Peacock had a feeling in her heart, a feeling that things were going to succeed. It was a feeling that was hard to fathom.

Peacock's perception was wandering aimlessly outside. Suddenly, Peacock had a feeling that her soul was blessed. She thought of something that the Cult Leader once said, "Everyone else was honing their state of mind in the Refining Heart Cave. You guys are lucky to have mastered the Mortal Heart Technique in the Refining Heart Cave. With such luck, the probability of inheriting the Immortal Heart Technique has increased by fifty percent!"

"It's because the Mortal Heart Technique has been mastered that the probability of inheriting the Immortal Heart Technique is increased. Does this mean that the Mortal Heart Technique is related to the Path of Immortality?

Once I entered the Inheritance Secret Chamber, I threw the Mortal Heart Technique to the back of my mind. What a waste! "

But what does the Mortal Heart Technique have to do with the Ice Developing Incantation?

As she pondered, Peacock thought of Zhang Xiaohua and the Heavenly Dao that Zhang Xiaohua manifested in the Refining Heart Cave. She also thought of the Heavenly Dao that the Heavenly Dao manifested. Suddenly, Peacock thought of the Inheritance Secret Chamber and the colorful elemental stones!

Immediately, Peacock's perception formed the childish trajectory of the Heavenly Dao. She tried to connect the stars in the Refining Heart Cave with the stars in the Inheritance Secret Chamber. Peacock's thought was not a big deal. It was a sign of the formless nature of the Great Dao. She turned herself into a formless being without the elemental energy of heaven and earth. In an instant, the elemental energy in the Inheritance Secret Chamber, the water elemental energy was the most prominent. They all flowed into Peacock's formless body.

At this time, Peacock had already sensed the Heavenly Dao. She slowly simulated the Heavenly Dao in her mind. She did not feel much about the elemental energy entering her body. It was as if this was a matter of course!

Because of this, this unintentional absorption of elemental energy was similar to the absorption of elemental energy in Zhang Xiaohua's body when she was unconscious. From wisps to wisps, and then to waves, the elemental energy was guided by Peacock's perception. They were all absorbed into the pores of Peacock's body!

Peacock's absorption of elemental energy had triggered a change in the elemental energy in the Inheritance Secret Chamber. All kinds of elemental energy changed their original trajectory and drifted toward Peacock. Chen Chen and Swift originally did not have any perception of the elemental energy of heaven and earth. They were unable to absorb the elemental energy out of thin air. Peacock's breakthrough allowed them to sense the elemental energy of heaven and earth. Both of them had cultivated the traditional Immortal Path. Since they could sense the elemental energy of heaven and earth, it was not difficult for them to absorb elemental energy into their bodies.

Therefore, when Peacock absorbed most of the elemental energy in the Inheritance Secret Chamber into her body, Chen Chen and Swift happily split the remaining elemental energy into two!

After an unknown amount of time, the elemental energy in the Inheritance Secret Chamber began to thin and could no longer withstand the absorption of the three of them. All the primeval stones on the ceiling of the Inheritance Secret Chamber were dull without exception. They were no longer as bright as they were when the three of them entered!

Suddenly, the peacock opened its eyes. Its gaze was not much different from before, but upon closer inspection, there was a trace of pride and joy in its eyes.

At the same time, Chen Chen and Swift also opened their eyes. They looked at each other and immediately stood up. They bowed and said, "Thank you Senior Sister for your help!"

Peacock looked at the two of them and smiled. "You two have succeeded as well?"
