Return to Mount Crouching Dragon
Mu Yu dropped by Waterstream Village before departing. Village Chief Bu was holding story time for the children again. To Mu Yu’s chagrin, he was the star of the story.
“I never knew you were so diligent, hihi,” Tian Ran teased.
“There’s a lot you don’t know. I’ve always been diligent,” Mu Yu said as he straightened up his torso.
Xiaoshuai: “I’d cook a rooster if it woke me up in the morning.”
Mu Yu: “Hahaha.”
As they headed toward Moyun Mountains’ exit, Tian Ran reminded, “Stick close to me. I have a magical item that will conceal our presence. The fiend beasts won’t spot us as long as they don’t have sharp eyes.”
Getting out of Moyun Mountains was a real challenge. Evidence? Tian Ran took an entire month to enter.
Mu Yu could’ve fled via trees. For educational purposes, nevertheless, he questioned, “What happens if they have good vision?”
“That doesn’t necessarily mean they will notice us. The most troublesome type are those with keen smell because they’ll be able to smell us even if we conceal ourselves.”
Mount Crouching Dragon’s contours were soon visible on the horizon. The vast mountain range they had to cross lied beyond Mount Crouching Dragon.
Mu Yu hit his head: “Man, why didn’t I think of that?”
“What?”
“Let’s go to Mount Crouching Dragon. I’ll explain on the way,” Mu Yu answered, swerving into another direction.
Although the world of cultivation at Moyun Mountains had been united, Feng Haochen forbade Daoist Qing Song from going after elemental demons because it was courting death. Daoist Qing Song didn’t have the entire picture, but he wasn’t the type to flirt with death.
Mu Yu chucked the elemental demons into the back of his head after Feng Haochen went missing and forgot to pass on what the tree elder shared with him.
Mu Yu recounted his meeting with the tree elder and elaborated, “If the elemental demons really did find a way to abscond Celestial Prison already, what would Shifu stay to sustain the formation for? If he doesn’t have to maintain the formation multiple problems would be solved in a flash.”
“Really? Lead the way now. I can get there in a tick.”
Tian Ran willingly expended a huge chunk of spiritual energy at once to utilise Red Lotus Technique. Travelling kilometres in an instance was awfully uncomfortable for Mu Yu. Within fifteen minutes, they arrived where the fig tree was… supposed to be.
Weeds were the only thing left where the wood elemental demons were supposed to be. They did several laps, but there wasn’t a single wood demon in sight.
“They’re seriously gone!” Mu Yu enthused. “You might not like what I’m about to say because you’re from Third Heaven Continent. Elemental demons should be every human’s responsibility. It’s unfair to put it all on Shifu, and sacrificing the lives here is unacceptable. Third Heaven Palace are enjoying the honour and playing monarch. Meanwhile, Shifu is going through all sorts of dilemmas. If I’m being honest, I’d be delighted if Moyun Mountains’ humans could escape their ill fate.”
“I may be from Third Heaven Continent, but I’m also Sword Shadow Dust Gale’s daughter. I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiment. In my opinion, he has already done too much; forcing him to sacrifice his life, as well, is unfair. I’m going to help out.”
All of a sudden, Mu Yu’s wood spirit shot out from Shadow Splitter Sword and circled in the sky. Though he wasn’t aware what the sword was up to, he surmised it sensed something since Tree Elder gave it to him. When it settled on a direction and flew off, they gave chase.
