Chapter 322: Battle of Return (3)
Jing Chen frowned, took a deep breath, recovered in mid-air, and continued to fly forward on Yu Ruyi: "Let's go, we don't have much spiritual power left."
"Okay!" The two nodded and followed.
The journey was neither short nor long. In the sky, they encountered several Qilins who were on patrol. The claws of those orcs were extremely powerful, and a slap from them seemed to shake the heaven and earth. However, this time they took the initiative and were caught by Jingchen first, who whipped them and sent them back to their nest.
After many twists and turns, they finally saw the hilltop of the Wenxin Gate when their spiritual power was almost exhausted.
The three of them landed quickly, looking exhausted, and did not dare to delay and went straight to find Tang Huanyun.
Along the way, a disciple from the mountain sect saw Mu Hanxing and was surprised. He hurriedly called out to her, "Elder Yaoguang!"
Mu Hanxing looked back and saw that these people were ordinary people at the mountain gate, but they were quite well-behaved, so she could trust them. She hurriedly asked them, "What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"When you were not in the mountain, a group of people from the human world came to the mountain to pick a fight. Fortunately, the second sect leader was there and pushed them away with one palm. The group of people suffered internal injuries and most likely would not be able to get up for a while." The disciples hurried to report.
As expected of the second in command…he ended the fight with just one palm.
"Isn't this a good thing? The Second Sect Leader will not leave for a moment. You can rest assured with him around." Mu Hanxing said.
“But, but, there are reports from the outside world that you are planning to embezzle the Nine Provinces Cauldron and make enemies with the world. Many people are saying that they will come to Wenxin Gate to arrest you for offering sacrifice to heaven and earth…”
Mu Hanxing: “…”
Unexpectedly, Jing Chen, who was always as calm as a chrysanthemum, got angry first: "This is ridiculous, you also believe such words?"
The disciples hurriedly shook their heads. “Both sect leaders did not believe those rumors. They suspected that it was the enemy’s tactic to deliberately make Elder Yaoguang the target of public criticism and then steal the tripod. So the sect leaders immediately asked many disciples to go to the Three Realms to explain that Elder Yaoguang bravely entered the ghost world and restored the Jiuzhou Tripod to its place for the safety of the world.”
"Young Master is really smart and capable." Qi Baige breathed a sigh of relief. "As for the Second Sect Leader, I haven't met him in person yet, otherwise it would be too rude. Also, we have successfully retrieved the Jiuzhou Ding from the ghost world, so let the two Sect Leaders follow us to return the Ding to its place."
When several disciples heard that the Jiuzhou Ding had been retrieved, they were shocked and said, "Elder Yaoguang, you, you really retrieved it!?"
"Ah? That's the holy weapon that has been missing for a long time!"
"I can't believe it!"
The disciples looked at each other in surprise and joy.
Mu Hanxing said quickly: "Okay, without further ado, let's go find the two elders first. You can also call all the disciples over and go to the back mountain together to witness the return of the artifact."
"it is good!"
She didn't want anyone to throw dirty water on her anymore and wanted everyone to see clearly whether she had embezzled the money or not!
On the way to find the headmaster, a disciple remembered an important matter and hurriedly reported to Mu Hanxing: "Oh, elder! There is another important thing. Your two friends left the mountain after getting the news."
She paused, her heart was empty, and she looked anxious: "What's going on? But they are from Fuyue City?"
"Yes, actually, since the Nine Provinces Cauldron was stolen, evil spirits have been causing trouble in most places in the human world, but the situation is still within the controllable range. My sect and other sects in the cultivation world are able to deal with it. But over time, those evil spirits have increased in number, and many evil spirits linger and refuse to go to the ghost world. I heard that they even injured many soul-collectors, and then stayed in the afterlife to hurt innocent people."
"Now, are we short of manpower?" Jing Chen frowned. If the situation had not gotten worse, disciples of these levels would not have known the news.
"Yes, a few days ago, the two heads were responsible for going to the human world to get rid of the evil spirits. But when the female doctor heard that there was an evil spirit in Xier Village, she left the mountain without saying a word. The fortune teller was afraid that something might happen to her, so he had to accompany her. He said that if anything happened to her, you would definitely hold him accountable."
It’s Qionghua and Gongyu!
"How many days have they been gone?" Jingchen asked hurriedly.
"It's been about three days. We also sent a few disciples to follow them. We don't know what the situation is now."
"Senior Sister, go back to your place first. Once the tripod is back in place, these evil spirits might all disappear." Qi Baige said anxiously.
She was extremely anxious after hearing this, but Qi Baige was right. The most important thing now was to return to her position.
"Walk."
She quickened her pace and reached the top of the mountain first. The group of disciples went to call the two masters and others.
In less than a moment, a group of people gathered at the back mountain, waiting to return to their positions.
Chuntao stayed at the Wenxin Gate waiting for her master to return. As soon as she saw him, she immediately rushed over and asked him all kinds of questions, fearing that her master had been eaten by ghosts.
"Lord City Lord, you're back alive! I was so worried about you!" Chuntao almost burst into tears.
"It's okay, don't worry." Mu Hanxing hurriedly comforted him.
Tang Huanyun also hurried his pace, almost falling down in a hurry. He could not wait to run over and first chased after Mu Hanxing and asked, "Xing'er! Xing'er! Are you hurt? And Ge'er!? Are you all right?"
The two sisters hurriedly comforted the frightened little master: "It's okay, we are fine, it's just that our physical and spiritual energy are almost exhausted. After the Jiuzhou Ding returns to its place, we need to rest for a while."
Tang Huanyun was relieved to see that the two of them had returned from the ghost world without losing even a hair. She almost cried, "That's good. That's good."
"Your safety is more important than anything else. I heard from my disciples that is the Lord of the Ghost World really willing to return the things to their original owners?" Wu Nian also slowly walked over and asked the three of them.
"We've been through a lot and it took some effort, but the result is good." Mu Hanxing said quickly, "Second Sect Leader, let's put the tripod back to its place."
Jing Chen used his spiritual power to take out the Jiuzhou Ding from his treasure bag. The holy object overflowing with spiritual energy was displayed in front of everyone, leaving the group of disciples stunned. The golden light was dazzling and untouchable. The holy object that could conquer the world was right in front of them.
Even the two sect leaders were amazed for a long time. After they calmed down, they actually had a lot on their mind. The evil spirits in the human world have been particularly serious these days. Now that the tripod has been returned to its place, they don't know if the human world can temporarily hold back. How many innocent lives have been lost during this period.
They didn't dare tell Xing'er about this. She already had too heavy a burden on her shoulders and they really didn't want to add to her worries.
Wu Nian used his spiritual power to control the Jiuzhou Ding floating in the air with his bare hands. He frowned and carried the Ding all the way to the altar on the back mountain.
With a loud "boom" and the sound of grinding stones, the heavy tripod finally returned to its place, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief...
But before they could completely relax, there was another loud "boom" coming from the entrance of the mountain, and everyone looked back in shock.
