Chapter 876

Hearing Peacock's question, Chen Chen and Yu Yan did not dare to delay.

"That's right, if not for you guiding the energy into your body and letting me know what the energy of heaven and earth is, I'm afraid I would have to wait a long time?" Chen Chen smiled.

Yu Yan nodded, "I have to thank you too, you've helped me twice, you've given me a new lease of life."

Peacock waved her hand and smiled, "Sister Yu Yan's fate has arrived, even without my guidance, she would have succeeded. I just happened to be there at the right time."

After that, Peacock looked at the darkened vitality stone in the Inheritance Chamber and sighed in her heart, "No wonder Grand Leader has doubts. Although this vitality stone is under the protection of the Sect-Protecting Grand Formation, it has been used for tens of thousands of years. It is a miracle that it has lasted until now. I wonder how the next Grand Leader will inherit this treasure?

Could it be that the Immortal Dao of my Incense Cult can't be passed down? "

Seeing that Peacock did not look happy, Yu Yan did not say much but Chen Chen jumped to Peacock's side and smiled, "Sister Yu Yan has inherited our Xiangism, why aren't you happy?

In the future, should I call you Sister Leader? "

Peacock looked at Chen Chen and smiled, "How about it, if you want the leader to lock you in the Discipline Cave, you can call me that!"

Chen Chen pursed his lips and shook his head. "That Commandment Cave is just a small Youlan Prairie. There's not even the shadow of a beast, let alone a person. It's very lonely inside, so don't mention it!"

Yu Yan looked at the two of them and smiled, "Sisters, we … this is considered a success, I wonder if the leader will smile when he knows that the three of us have inherited it?"

"Hahaha," Chen Chen laughed.

Yu Yan was curious, "Sister Chen, what … what are you laughing at?"

Chen Chen covered his mouth and tried to stop laughing, "I … I was thinking if the leader laughed, what … what would he look like, who … who would he lock in the Discipline Cave!"

Peacock smiled sweetly, "Let's go, let the leader be happy and inform the other masters, I'm sure both of them are anxious!"

Chen Chen and Swift were already at Peacock's beck and call, so they nodded in agreement.

When the three of them left the Inheritance Palace, they didn't see Nun Jing Yi, so they could only go to Mo Xuan Palace. After hearing the report from the disciple on duty, they learned of Nun Jing Yi's whereabouts. Only then did they send a disciple to inform Nun Jing Fan and Nun Xuezhen that the three of them had come out of seclusion. The three of them then headed towards Zi Xia's location!

Zi Xia and Xi Mujun were stunned when they heard the scolding. Xi Mujun reacted quickly and his expression changed. However, there was a hint of joy in his eyes. He immediately stood up and walked quickly to the door. He bowed and said, "Welcome, Sect Leader!"

Zi Xia was shocked as well. She had heard Xi Mujun mention the Grand Hierarch but she never thought that the Grand Hierarch would arrive so quickly. As her face turned pale, a look of determination flashed across her eyes. Most of her gaze was fixed fiercely on Xi Mujun's back!

When Zi Xia stood up and walked to the door, Nun Jing Yi and Nun Jing Gang walked to the door. Nun Jing Yi glanced coldly at Zi Xia, then walked slowly into the room. She picked up a chair and sat down. Nun Jing Gang was expressionless. She glanced at Xi Mujun and sat down with Nun Jing Yi's subordinate.

Xi Mujun looked at Zi Xia, then stole a glance at Nun Jing Gang. He was about to speak, but Nun Jing Gang stopped him with a look. Zi Xia sighed softly and walked to Nun Jing Yi. She stood carefully with her head lowered and didn't say a word.

"You … do you know your crime?" Nun Jing Yi looked coldly at Zi Xia and asked directly.

Zi Xia bit her lips and said stubbornly, "Sect Leader, I … don't know my crime!"

"Hmph! You still don't know your crime?

Talking behind our leader's back and making up stories about our leader is a great crime in the Incense Spreading Cult! "

"I'm sure the Sect Leader heard what I said to Senior Brother Xi. Perhaps it involved you, but … what I said was the truth. I didn't lie at all, so … I don't think I've done anything wrong!"

Xi Mujun looked at Nun Jing Gang and probed, "Sect Leader, I'm untalented but I'm here to accompany Junior Sister Zi Xia. Although Junior Sister Zi Xia's words were a little rude, but … I ask the Sect Leader to consider her eagerness to avenge her master. That's why she overthought things. Besides … Junior Sister Zi Xia has only been in Mo Xuan Palace for a short time. There are many things she might not know.

Please forgive me! "Xi Mujun's words had some meaning. If Zhang Xiaohua defended herself, she would have agreed with Zi Xia. She would have said that Zi Xia was just stating facts and had no intention of slandering the Sect Leader. However, Xi Mujun was implying that Zi Xia was young and insensible …

Nun Jing Yi glanced at Xi Mujun and asked again, "Zi Xia, when you came to Lingxiang Peak again, did the Incense Spreading Cult ever neglect you?"

Zi Xia shook her head.

"After Junior Sister Jing Xuan left, the Incense Spreading Cult took into account your filial piety to Master and was very obedient to you. If you wanted to go to Secluded Orchid Evening, the Incense Spreading Cult let Chen Chen bring you there. If you wanted to live alone, the Incense Spreading Cult gave in to you. I even changed your name to Zi Xia in hopes that you'll have a brand new tomorrow … This is the Incense Spreading Cult's painstaking care for you. Can't … you feel it?"

Zi Xia still shook her head.

"Then … why do you still have complaints about the Incense Spreading Cult?"

Zixia looked at Nun Jing Yi. She didn't seem to have any intention of compromising. She raised her head and said, "Disciple's background is unknown. My childhood memories are unclear. I am grateful to Fragrant Cult for taking me in. Moreover, after Master left, Hierarch His Excellency put me in Mo Xuan Palace. Disciple has no complaints.

I don't deserve any mistreatment. "

"It's just that …" Zi Xia gritted her teeth and said, "It's just that, as a disciple, I have to avenge Master. The Sect Leader didn't catch the murderer of my Master and instead gave me so many benefits. This … this isn't something that I shouldn't think about!"

"Mm, so you think that the Incense Spreading Cult has selfish motives. Even … Do you think that Junior Sister Jing Xuan's death was caused by the Incense Spreading Cult?"

Zi Xia was stunned. Her face turned pale and her long eyelashes trembled slightly. "This … This disciple has never dared to think about it. I've never said it!"

Xi Mujun spoke anxiously but was stopped by Nun Jing Gang!

The Sect Leader said coldly, "So … You want to find a powerful backer and a helper to work with you to find the murderer of your Master?"

Zixia puffed out her chest. Her eyes didn't even look away as she stared straight at Nun Jing Yi. She calmly said, "As long as we can find Master's murderer, this disciple is willing to die a horrible death. This sacrifice … is nothing!"

"But … You're doing this for the greater good, for your Master's revenge. But … Don't you think that you're very selfish?"

"Selfish?" Zi Xia was stunned and asked curiously.

"Yes. First of all, the person you've let down is the 'him' that you mentioned. The Incense Spreading Cult doesn't know who this' him 'is. From what you've said, he's an outsider. Perhaps he's waiting for you to meet him but you've thrown away his feelings so easily. You … Do you think you've let him down?

If this isn't your selfishness, then whose is it? "

When Zi Xia heard this, tears streamed down her face. She said, "When he found out about this, he thought that my heart had changed. It doesn't matter if he bears a grudge or curses me, I'll accept it. I have no regrets!

Perhaps one day, he'll know the truth. Perhaps he'll forgive me. Perhaps he'll sympathize with me. Perhaps he'll agree with my way of doing things. But by then … everything will have changed. I can no longer hold him back. Let my feelings for him be buried in the vicissitudes of the world! "

"Sigh …" Nun Jing Yi sighed. "The second person you've let down is probably your Master. Junior Sister Jing Xuan passed away peacefully. Looking at her, although she knew something and could have left some clues, she didn't leave anything behind. Perhaps she didn't want the Incense Spreading Cult to fall into chaos. Perhaps she didn't want you to avenge her!"

Zi Xia was still sad.

"The third person you've let down is our Cult. Junior Sister Jing Xuan is our Cult's Junior Sister and we grew up together. Our Cult's feelings for her far exceed yours. If you can think of avenging her, how can our Cult not think of it?

Ever since Junior Sister Jing Xuan passed away, our Cult has put in countless efforts and searched for countless clues. You don't know any of this. Just based on your wishful thinking, you've turned our Cult's many years of hard work into ashes. You … Don't you think that you're very selfish? "

"Lord Cult Leader …" When Zi Xia heard this, she immediately prostrated herself on the ground and burst into tears. It was as if she wanted to pour out all the grief that had accumulated in her heart for many years.

Xi Mujun stood at the side with a mixed expression on his face. He was worried because the Lord Cult Leader's words seemed to disapprove of Zi Xia being together with him. He was happy because Zi Xia's position in the Lord Cult Leader's heart far exceeded his expectations. If he could become Zi Xia's spouse, the benefits he would receive would be far beyond what he could imagine today!

After crying for a long time, she gradually stopped crying. Nun Jing Yi then said somewhat lovingly, "Alright, our Cult has said everything that needs to be said. Nun Jing Gang called our Cult Leader here to be a matchmaker. Now, we've become an unwelcome guest.

However, to be honest, with your current status, the person you met outside the Cult is not worthy of you. I'm also familiar with Mu Jun. He's steady and has a good personality. He can take on great responsibilities and is a rare talent in our Incense Spreading Cult. He's suitable for you. I believe he's much better than the person you met before! "

"Furthermore, you have no one to rely on in the Incense Spreading Cult. Mu Jun is the one who can take care of you. What you said earlier might come true. Your thoughts might not be completely wrong!"

"Sigh, in any case, you have to walk your own path. Our Cult Leader only hopes that once you've made your choice, you won't have any regrets. You just have to continue walking down this path!"

After she finished speaking, Nun Jing Yi shut her mouth and watched quietly. Xi Mujun's face was filled with joy. He looked as if he was about to jump up and down. He stared straight at Zi Xia, hoping that Zi Xia would immediately pick up the Purple Phoenix Hairpin at this moment …
