I cast eternal life with the seeds of Tao

Chapter 319: Mu Xuan's suspicion

Four days later, a hundred miles outside Yanyu City, a beam of light swooped down from the clouds in the sky and entered a dense forest.

A quarter of an hour later, a tall young man wearing a green shirt with a feather pattern embroidered on his chest walked out of the dense forest.

From the imperial capital to the northwest border, the mountains are high and the waters are far, more than ten thousand miles.

But Zhao Heng relied on his current cultivation and flew at full speed, and arrived at the border in less than five days.

He concealed his breath all the way and changed his appearance to hurry on the road. Only then did he change back to his true appearance, hiding his breath to the half-step innate realm, and walked to Yanyu City.

He used his body skills all the way, and it only took an incense stick of time for Zhao Heng to reach the east gate of Yanyu City.

Before entering the city, Zhao Heng used his spiritual sense to sense the situation in the city, and the information fed back by his spiritual sense immediately made him gasp.

"Hiss... So many warriors!"

According to his spiritual sense, there were tens of thousands of warriors in the entire Yanyu City.

Among them, there are nearly a thousand warriors in the Ascension Realm.

Moreover, there are some auras in the city, some obscure like the abyss, some scorching like the sun, some sharp and unmatched... Each of them dominates one side of the city, and Zhao Heng's consciousness dare not approach at all.

These people should all be big shots in the Return to Origin Realm. There are dozens of them that Zhao Heng can sense alone, not to mention that there are some hidden ones that he cannot detect.

Before coming to Yanyu City, Zhao Heng had already known about it through the sect chat group.

Now the warriors of the righteous and evil paths have gathered at the border.

On the righteous side, the city closest to the ruins in the northwest border is Yanyu City.

Therefore, the seven righteous sects and the major sect forces, as well as a large number of independent cultivators, are now gathered in the city.

Although it was expected, Zhao Heng was still a little shocked when he really sensed the aura in the city.

The attraction of the ruins that appeared this time is too strong.

The entire righteous cultivation world, from the seven righteous sects to the second- and third-rate sects, as well as the scattered innate warriors, flocked here.

Now this small Yanyu City has gathered more than half of the innate masters in the righteous cultivation world.

The gathering of so many high-level warriors made Zhao Heng feel like a thorn in his back, especially the aura of those powerful masters in the Return to Origin Realm, which made him uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Zhao Heng's spiritual power has greatly increased, and the Qi-Looking Technique has reached the seventh level. His ability to hide his own aura has doubled, so he is not afraid that these powerful masters in the Return to Origin Realm can see the secrets on him.

After calming down a little, Zhao Heng entered the city.

The streets in the city are as prosperous as ever, with shops and vendors lined up, and hawking shouts one after another.

The sudden appearance of a large number of warriors in Yanyu City did not have much impact on the people in the city. Instead, the large number of new people made their business booming.

Zhao Heng walked in the city, and most of the pedestrians on the street were dressed as warriors.

There are young knights wearing brocade clothes and carrying swords, walking with their heads held high, there are also graceful female knights wearing bamboo hats and hanging swords from their waists, and there are also bald and bearded men with ferocious appearances, carrying heavy hammers on their backs...

These warriors with different dresses and temperaments, with their auras either restrained or extroverted, walk on the street.

The scene seems chaotic and disorderly, but there are few quarrels in the city, and no one is making trouble.

Because the Righteous Alliance has already issued an order, anyone who is prohibited from making trouble in Yanyu City, harassing the people and fighting privately will be severely punished.

It must be said that the reputation of the Righteous Alliance, especially the Seven Righteous Sects, is still very useful.

No matter whether it is other sects and families, or casual martial artists, no one dares to challenge its majesty.

This is difficult to do in the Demonic Alliance. If the four major branches don't fight themselves and bring disaster to others, others will burn incense.

At this time, Zhao Heng also slung a black soldier sword across his waist, dressed as a warrior.

The warriors on the road, seeing the "feather" logo embroidered on his chest, showed fear or envy in their eyes, and avoided him one after another, not daring to block his way.

In this way, Zhao Heng arrived at the "Qingyu Hall" in the west of the city smoothly.

At this time, the hall was no longer guarded by the Qingyu Hall staff, but four outer disciples of the Yuhua Sect, all of whom had the first and second levels of the Lianzang Realm.

Seeing that Zhao Heng was also wearing the uniform of an outer disciple of their own sect, and sensing that he was at the peak of the Lianzang Realm, the four did not dare to neglect him, and one of the men took the initiative to clasp his fists.

"This senior brother looks a little unfamiliar, I wonder which peak of the Nine Peaks he is from?"

Zhao Heng clasped his fists and returned the greeting: "I am Zhao Heng, my master is Mu Xuan, the elder of Qingxia Peak, and I am the head of Qingyu Hall."

"Zhao Heng!"

Hearing this name, the four people only felt that it sounded familiar, as if they had heard it in the sect before, but it had been a long time and they could no longer remember it.

However, when they heard that the other party was Elder Mu's disciple, the four people's faces changed at the same time.

There are many outer disciples in Yuhua Sect, and those who can worship under the elders are rare, with extraordinary status and talent.

Several people just symbolically checked Zhao Heng's identity badge and let him go immediately.

One of them took the initiative to lead Zhao Heng to the villa where Elder Mu Xuan was.

As the sect hall, the masters and disciples of the sect who rushed to the border this time all lived in the hall.

It is said that nine elders came to Yuhua Sect this time and brought many inner sect elites to the border.

As soon as Zhao Heng arrived outside the villa, he saw several familiar figures running out from inside.

Qi Hongyuan, Li Qiu'e, Mo Lingwu... and several other fellow brothers and sisters came out to greet him personally.

Obviously, Zhao Heng's breath had been captured by everyone before he entered the hall.

"Junior brother, you are finally back, senior brother misses you so much!"

Qi Hongyuan hurried forward and gave Zhao Heng a bear hug, like a family reunited after a long separation, no, closer than family.

The other fellow disciples were also very enthusiastic to see Zhao Heng, which made Zhao Heng quite uncomfortable.

"Brother, sister, what are you doing..."

"Brother, it's great that you can come back safely. Master has told us the letter you sent back. I didn't expect that you would have such a dangerous experience after we left.

It was all because of my carelessness that I almost killed you. Master has punished me for this matter. Brother, please don't hold a grudge."

Hearing this, Zhao Heng suddenly realized.

After the battle with the fake queen, Zhao Heng knew that the queen had passed away. This matter must not be concealed. In the end, he sent a letter to the master to tell him the whole story.

Of course, Zhao Heng's letter was carefully compiled, and it only said that Queen Mu was dead and was impersonated by someone.

The fake queen and Emperor Hao Yuan and others were in collusion and had all fallen into the devil's way.

When he was examining Emperor Hao Yuan's body, the other party suddenly attacked him and severely injured him, almost losing his life.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, the princess of the empire discovered the other party's conspiracy. The fake queen was guilty and fled after severely injuring the two people. Her identity was unknown.

In order to enhance credibility, Zhao Heng also presented some materials for refining puppets, a spiritual object of heaven and earth, and several pills looted from Murong Nishang's cave to Mu Xuan.

Although there were still some loopholes in the details of this matter, Zhao Heng was not worried.

After all, in the eyes of the master, he was just a weak acquired warrior with weak abilities.

Being able to survive was already a miracle, so it was naturally impossible to grasp too much information, and some loopholes were normal.

What Zhao Heng didn't know was that after receiving his letter, Mu Xuan learned that the descendant she sent Zhao Heng to protect was actually a demon pretending to be a demon, who almost killed his disciple.

She felt quite guilty and was also worried about Zhao Heng's injury.

However, the border situation was urgent and she could not get away to go to the imperial capital. She had no place to vent her guilt and worry.

Qi Hongyuan and others who were originally ordered to go to the imperial capital to assist Zhao Heng in exterminating the demons became the best outlet for her anger.

Mu Xuan immediately summoned her disciples, explained the incident, and was furious. She punished everyone. Qi Hongyuan, as the eldest brother, was the first to be severely reprimanded by Mu Xuan.

She also claimed that if Zhao Heng had any problems, he, the eldest brother, would be severely punished.

Although Qi Hongyuan felt wronged, he dared not challenge his master. Every day, he felt the master's gaze that wanted to "kill people". He was trembling and treading on thin ice, and he looked forward to Zhao Heng's early return more than anyone else.

Now that he finally saw Zhao Heng, who had returned safely, he and other fellow disciples finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother, come with me, Master wants to see you." Qi Hongyuan pulled Zhao Heng and headed straight for the inner courtyard.

In the hall of the courtyard, Zhao Heng saw Master Mu Xuan, who still had silver hair and a solemn image.

However, when she saw Zhao Heng, Mu Xuan finally showed a kind smile on her face.

"Xiao Heng, you are back. How are your injuries? Come, Master has prepared some healing pills for you."

Mu Xuan waved her hand, and several jade bottles flew in front of Zhao Heng.

There were all top-quality healing pills inside, and even a few elixir-level pills.

This scene made Qi Hongyuan and others feel sad.

Master, you were not so generous last time we came back injured?

Zhao Heng hurriedly thanked the master, indicating that his injuries had healed and he did not accept the pills.

After the master and disciple met and exchanged greetings, Zhao Heng told the story of what happened in the imperial capital in detail.

There was no conflict with the content of the letter, except that the Empress led the army to suppress the rebellion, and the Imperial Master Hu Feinan helped.

After listening to Zhao Heng's story, Mu Xuan's deep eyes narrowed slightly.

"Hu Feinan... This is his code name. His real name is Hu Yong. He was originally an inner disciple of Qingxia Peak. He was sent out decades ago to lurk in the secular world.

However, the real Hu Yong died more than half a year ago, before your senior brother and others went to the palace. Who is this person?"

Zhao Heng's pupils shrank and his hair stood on end when he heard this.

His subconscious reaction was naturally captured by Mu Xuan, and his eyes glanced at Zhao Heng.

Fortunately, Zhao Heng reacted very quickly and immediately showed a look of surprise.

"Master, you... You are not kidding, Senior Brother Hu is dead?" He had a horrified expression.

Qi Hongyuan and others were also surprised. When they rushed to the palace, they had fought side by side with Hu Yong.

After the battle, Hu Yong disappeared, and they thought he had died.

Mu Xuan shook her head and said, "Hu Yong is from Qingxia Peak. His soul card is in my hands. I know better than anyone when he died."

"Soul card!"

Zhao Heng felt a chill on his back. He was careless. He was really careless this time.

He actually forgot that all the innate masters of the sect were connected to the soul card. When Hu Feinan died, the soul card would naturally go out.

When Zhao Heng was in doubt, he heard Mu Xuan say, "Not long after Hu Yong died, you sent a message for help.

I was going to go there in person, but the situation on the border was serious and I couldn't get away, so I asked your senior brother and sister to come.

Then, your senior brother reported that Hu Yong appeared again and then disappeared. I was also very confused and planned to send someone to investigate later.

Unexpectedly, he appeared again this time and participated in the battle against the rebellion. This man pretended to be Hu Yong repeatedly, but he had no idea what his purpose was.

But looking at what he did, he didn't have any ill intentions towards our Yuhua Sect, and instead helped us in every possible way.

It's a pity that I can't come in person, otherwise I will definitely be able to figure out this person's identity. If you have any more news about this person, please inform me immediately. "

Hearing this, Zhao Heng nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Yes, yes, Master."

In his heart, he shouted that he was lucky. Fortunately, the border ruins locked his master and the masters of the sect firmly.

Otherwise, if a powerful figure from the Guiyuan Realm of the sect comes to the imperial capital in person and encounters Hu Feinan in his disguise, there is a 90% chance that he will become a gangster.

As the saying goes, if you often walk by the river, your shoes will never get wet. This time, it was just my luck.

Zhao Heng secretly wiped the cold sweat and said to himself, I will never play tricks with these Guiyuan Realm bosses again, I feel so tired!

At this time, Muxuan fluttered her sleeves and smiled again.

"Okay, let's not mention this for now, Xiao Heng, you came back just in time.

Today, the Righteous Alliance held a gathering outside the city and invited the Righteous Sect warriors in the city to attend, with the intention of strengthening the unity of the Righteous warriors before entering the ruins.

Although you are not a warrior in the Ascending Heaven Realm and cannot enter the ruins, you can still follow your master to see the world. What do you think? "

Hearing this, Zhao Heng subconsciously wanted to refuse.

Zhao Heng was used to keeping a low profile when he was not wearing a vest. This party must be filled with strong people, and there were probably many Guiyuan realm bosses. Zhao Heng really didn't want to deal with them.

However, before Zhao Heng could answer, someone outside the door announced.

"Elder Qi Mu, the eldest elder of the Yun family is coming with his clan members to join us."

Muxuan nodded and said, "We have agreed with the Yun family to go to the party together, and Qingxue is among them this time. Xiao Heng, do you want to go?"

Hearing this, Zhao Heng, who was still thinking about how to refuse just a second ago, bowed and saluted: "Thank you Master for your kindness. I happen to be on the path of alchemy. I still have some problems, so I can ask Senior Sister Yun for help."
