144: What? Great joy?

“Let’s just discuss our own terms.” Mo Yun Ghost Emperor waved his hand grandly, appearing quite generous.

Lin Yan was pleasantly surprised: “Since the East Sea Secret Realm has already been opened, there’s no point in us staying here. Let’s go to your Family Mo and get married now. I can’t wait.”

Huh?! The East Sea Secret Realm opened?

Mo Yun Ghost Emperor immediately caught the key phrase in his words and looked at Lin Yan in disbelief, then at the Yan Clan members.

“Did they help you?”

“But, that’s not right! With their strength, they probably aren’t enough to sweep through the East Sea Secret Realm, after all, there are other ancient Families here.”

It wasn’t that Mo Yun Ghost Emperor looked down on these Yan Clan Disciples; it was just that their strength wasn’t considered top-tier among the ancient Families he had encountered before.

To open the East Sea Secret Realm was simply a pipe dream.

“Mo Lao, don’t dwell on this anymore. The East Sea Secret Realm has already been opened. The most important thing now is the marriage between our two Families.”

Lin Yan waved his hand, signaling Mo Yun Ghost Emperor not to ask too many questions, only to introduce his beautiful sister to him.

It seems this kid still has trump cards I don't know about.

Mo Yun Ghost Emperor paused slightly in his heart. After a long while, he spoke: “My Family Mo and the Ghost Hall must have been destroyed. To find Yun’er, I’m afraid… Eh, what’s that expression?”

“It’s nothing.”

Lin Yan turned and left without looking back.

From afar, Mo Yun Ghost Emperor heard Lin Yan muttering: “There’s not even a trace of her whereabouts. What a waste of my feelings.”

Mo Yun Ghost Emperor: “……”

This kid, why does he not feel like a good person?

......

......

This time, when Chu Mo went to another world to avoid the limelight, he not only helped the group members but also gained a powerful assistant.

“Calculating the time, the Soul Pill left for Lin Yan should be taking effect. As long as Mo Yun Ghost Emperor awakens, he will have the power to protect himself…”

Truth be told, the ghost possession skill is very useful. If it weren't for Lin Yan's body not being strong enough and Mo Yun Ghost Emperor's soul body being too weak...

In the East Sea Secret Realm, he wouldn't even need Chu Mo to lead him to level up; he could solve it himself.

Putting aside the gains from the East Sea Secret Realm, the first thing Chu Mo did upon returning was to inquire about the Shen Jian Sect.

Ultimately.

There was news.

But, it was explosive.

Sect Master Sect Leader Liang of the Shen Jian Sect and Sect Master Cold Chong Yan of the Hehuan Sect became Dao Companions, and the Shen Jian Sect and Hehuan Sect merged.

“This… What kind of development is this? It couldn’t be a rumor, could it?” Chu Mo held serious doubts about the authenticity of this news.

To say that the Shen Jian Sect Sect Master couldn't control himself that day, and coincidentally met the Hehuan Sect Sect Master, and had a night of passion with her.

This, Chu Mo believed.

But to become Dao Companions and merge the two Sects.

Who would believe that?!

“This kind of news is less real than Senior Brother Shen dragging that Huo Tianyi guy back to the Sect, and then his own father disowning him…”

“Hmm! That’s true!”

A familiar voice sounded behind him. Chu Mo almost didn't stop, nearly throwing a punch.

The person behind him was none other than Shen Qingqiu.

“Senior Brother, is your surname Cao? Why do you suddenly appear every time I mention you?!”

Chu Mo was truly exasperated.

Every time he mentioned Shen Qingqiu, this guy would appear beside him in various ways.

Shen Qingqiu smiled: “I don’t know why either. Anyway, every time I need to find you, I just go out, and I can meet you, Junior Brother.”

Chu Mo: “……”

He strongly suspected he was being set up, but he had no evidence.

However, it was truly absurd how this Senior Brother could always find him as accurately as a GPS.

At this moment, he heard Shen Qingqiu say again: “Today is the joyous day for the Shen Jian Sect Sect Master and the Hehuan Sect Sect Master. Hurry to the Shen Jian Sect, don’t make them wait too long.”

Chu Mo: “?????”

A string of question marks appeared above Chu Mo's head. He wasn't the main guest, so why did they have to wait for him?

But Shen Qingqiu gave him no chance, pulling him and flying towards the Shen Jian Sect.

They sped along, and Chu Mo didn't even have a chance to interject before he was brought to the Shen Jian Sect.

Today, the Shen Jian Sect was adorned with lanterns and streamers, bustling with excitement, and countless Sects came to offer congratulations.

Only Chu Mo felt a little uneasy.

“Senior Brother, why don’t we not go!”

“I’m scared!”

Shen Qingqiu heard this and smiled faintly: “Is Junior Brother still worried about the last incident?”

Chu Mo first nodded, then shook his head.

Although he was a little flustered about the last incident, with Senior Brother Shen, such a great master, here, he wasn't very flustered.

No matter how strong the Shen Jian Sect Sect Master was, could he still solo kill him from Shen Qingqiu’s hands?

Therefore.

In this matter, Chu Mo was not flustered.

However, he still grabbed Shen Qingqiu and whispered: “Senior Brother Shen, do you think the Hehuan Sect is a proper Sect?”

Shen Qingqiu shook his head.

The Hehuan Sect belonged to the Demonic Path, but its actions were quite orderly and systematic, yet its existence was tacitly allowed by everyone, and no encirclement and suppression had been carried out.

And now, if the Shen Jian Sect were to merge with the Hehuan Sect, it would certainly be accepted by the Righteous Path and become a regular Sect.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingqiu patted Chu Mo’s shoulder and said earnestly: “Junior Brother, you overthink too much. Actually, those female Disciples of the Hehuan Sect are all very enthusiastic and kind. Do not look at them with worldly eyes; they are truly very different.”

“……” Chu Mo was speechless.

The female Disciples of the Hehuan Sect are very enthusiastic and kind.

What do you know?!

Are they enthusiastic? They are after your body!

However, it makes sense for the Hehuan Sect to be after Shen Qingqiu’s body, after all, he is someone pursued by many terrifying women.

Hoo~

Chu Mo took a deep breath, looking at the ancient plaque of the Shen Jian Sect. The three large characters on it were carved with Sword Intent, sharp and irresistible.

These three characters, which should have been full of masculine vigor and unyielding forward momentum, now had a subtle, inexplicable change.

Chu Mo couldn't quite articulate it; he just felt that something was off.

Shen Qingqiu saw Chu Mo staring at the three characters on the plaque, smiled faintly, and explained: “Those were carved by the Hehuan Sect Sect Master Cold Chong Yan with her own Intent. At that time, all the Elders of the Shen Jian Sect strongly opposed it, but Sect Master Sect Leader Liang overruled all objections, and only then did this plaque come to be.”

“This peerless Sword Intent has been ruined.”

Chu Mo sighed. Last time they entered, they directly took a magic boat and landed in front of the main hall.

This time, however, they walked up the mountain gate.

After observing for a while at close range, he could confirm that Xie Xuan's Sword Intent was comprehended from here.

This meant that this was very likely a plaque left by the Ancestral Master of the Shen Jian Sect, infused with his supreme Sword Intent, yet not revealing too much so that others could not observe it.

Clearly, he wanted to pass on his Sword Intent to those with affinity, regardless of whether they were Shen Jian Sect Disciples.

“What a pity, what a pity. A treasure left by a true seeker of the Dao for future generations, ruined like this, alas~”

Chu Mo felt immense regret in his heart. If he had known earlier, he would have taken this plaque away long ago and observed it himself.

To be honest, he was still very envious of Xie Xuan’s Myriad Swords Return to the Origin.

After all, ‘cool’ was the only word needed.

And this Myriad Swords Return to the Origin of the Shen Jian Sect was not only cool but also extremely powerful.

It was just a bit strenuous when facing unorthodox operations.

However, with some demonic modifications by evil cultivators, it would become a super weapon.
