Old Five is a Goose.

Chapter 597 The Guest in the Seat of Honor

Mo Wuji knew this was a show of force, but he didn't care. He was here today not only to inquire about the location of the Immortal World but also for another matter: to find out who brought Shuaiguo to the Sea Ferocity Continent. Once he found this person, he might be able to return to True Star to take a look.

"Fellow Daoist Mo, please enter my Mirage Mountain's Guest Hall and take the seat of honor," Tang Anxuan said, slightly bowing and gesturing with his hand.

He was watching to see if Mo Wuji dared to enter the Mirage Mountain's sect. If Mo Wuji didn't dare, they would attack immediately. If Mo Wuji dared to enter, they would observe him further to see if Mo Wuji was truly that powerful or simply fearless due to ignorance.

After all, Mo Wuji looked too young. Tang Anxuan himself didn't believe that such a young cultivator could withstand an assault from Mirage Mountain's experts.

Mo Wuji, as if unaware of Tang Anxuan's intentions, walked in without any hesitation.

Seeing Mo Wuji actually dare to enter, even the two Loose Immortals exchanged glances, astonishment evident in their eyes.

Was Mo Wuji fearless due to ignorance, or did he truly possess such great strength?

A guy who had ruined the Mirage Mountain's direct descendant's genius dared to enter the Mirage Mountain's sect so brazenly?

No matter how strong he was, once he entered Mirage Mountain, he would be weakened by the various restrictions and trapped formations.

Of course, no one tried to dissuade Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji was looking for trouble with Mirage Mountain, and Mirage Mountain also wanted to interrogate Mo Wuji about certain things. In fact, Mirage Mountain had been searching for Mo Wuji, and today, Mo Wuji's arrival was practically walking into a trap.

One was the Azure Heart revealed in Shuaiguo's words. Mo Wuji possessed Heavenly Fire, and how could Mirage Mountain not covet such Heavenly Fire? Second was Shuaiguo's origin. Because Shuaiguo itself didn't know its origin, Mo Wuji's arrival naturally meant he would reveal where Shuaiguo came from.

The Mirage Mountain's Guest Hall was also built extremely luxuriously. As soon as Mo Wuji entered, he saw that the Guest Hall was surrounded by at least several top-tier hidden trapping and killing formations.

These trapping and killing formations posed no threat to Mo Wuji whatsoever. Mo Wuji felt even more contempt. A sect that set up hidden trapping and killing formations around its Guest Hall was clearly not a good one.

"Fellow Daoist Mo, please have a seat," Tang Anxuan said, still appearing extremely enthusiastic and courteous as he led Mo Wuji into the Guest Hall.

He gestured towards a seat on the side for Mo Wuji, but Mo Wuji acted as if he didn't see it and directly walked to the seat of honor and sat down.

Tang Anxuan was slightly taken aback. Mo Wuji being able to enter the Mirage Mountain's Guest Hall was already outrageous, but now this guy dared to sit in the seat of honor. The seat of honor in the sect's Guest Hall was usually reserved for the host. Was this guy truly not afraid of death or what?

The short Han Qi was about to explode, but this time, the Fifth Revolution Loose Immortal Ling Lian stopped Han Qi from acting and gave Mo Wuji a cold glance while signaling to Tang Anxuan.

Tang Anxuan nodded, and more than a dozen Mirage Mountain Elders took their seats one after another.

Among these dozen or so people, besides five Earth Immortals and two Loose Immortals, the rest were at least in the late stage of Human Immortal Realm.

Once everyone was seated, Tang Anxuan chuckled and was about to speak when a young female cultivator walked to the entrance of the Guest Hall and bowed, saying, "Sect Master, Elders, Lou Fuchi and Qu Lin have come to visit."

"Oh, who did they bring this time as a witness?" Tang Anxuan asked with a smile, appearing amiable to everyone.

The young female cultivator replied, "No one. It's just the two of them, husband and wife."

"Then please invite them in as well," Tang Anxuan nodded, his tone becoming indifferent.

Mo Wuji didn't speak. He didn't want to cause a bloodbath, as Shuaiguo was still alive. Destroying Mirage Mountain for the sake of Shuaiguo seemed too violent. He also knew that Mirage Mountain had been enduring until now, surely there was a reason, and it wasn't just about revenge.

He wanted to know what Mirage Mountain wanted from him besides revenge. However, he also had his limits of patience. If Mirage Mountain didn't know what was good for them, he wouldn't mind making this sect disappear from the Sea Ferocity Continent.

Not long after, the female cultivator led a man and a woman in.

The man's face was like a chiseled knife. Although he wasn't handsome and his cultivation wasn't high, only a Human Immortal Fourth Level, he possessed a certain aura. The woman's cultivation was even lower, only a True God Realm Fifth Level. At first glance, she seemed like an ordinary woman, wearing a light green dress, her long hair tied into a cultivator's bun, with a long sword on her back. But this woman was clearly pleasing to the eye, becoming more beautiful the more you looked at her.

The two were somewhat stunned as soon as they stepped into the Guest Hall. First, because they had never seen the young man sitting in the seat of honor. Second, because the people sitting in the Guest Hall this time were too terrifying. Among those they recognized, there were five Earth Immortals and two Loose Immortals.

Such a large lineup, was it to deal with them, husband and wife? Keep in mind that last time they invited Zhu Huang, who was highly respected in the Sea Ferocity Continent, Mirage Mountain only sent one Earth Immortal Elder plus the Sect Master.

As for the Mirage Mountain's Sect Master, Tang Anxuan, personally receiving them, it wasn't because he thought highly of them, but because Tang Anxuan was a smiling tiger, treating everyone with the same courtesy. But behind their backs, he would kill anyone.

"Greetings Sect Master Tang, Elders, two Loose Immortal seniors," the two stood at the entrance and bowed.

Just like they had treated Mo Wuji, except for Tang Anxuan nodding and smiling and saying, 'Please have a seat,' the rest didn't even glance at them.

Lou Fuchi and Qu Lin were clearly not the first to be treated this coldly. They didn't care, but bowed slightly to Mo Wuji and said, "My wife and I are short-sighted and cannot recognize you, fellow Daoist. Please forgive us."

Neither of them recognized Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji's position made them not dare to be disrespectful.

Mo Wuji had a better impression of these two, at least they wouldn't tell blatant lies like Tang Anxuan, pretending to have admired him for a long time.

"I'm here to visit Mirage Mountain, just like you. I'm also a guest. Please have a seat, don't mind me," Mo Wuji nodded and said.

"Hmph!" Hearing Mo Wuji's words, Han Qi was the first to snort in displeasure.

Lou Fuchi and Qu Lin were taken aback. Judging from Han Qi's snort, Mo Wuji was obviously not welcome by Mirage Mountain either. Since he wasn't welcome by Mirage Mountain, why could he sit in the seat of honor?

The two also knew that this wasn't something they should care about. After being surprised, they immediately sat in the lowest seats.

The atmosphere seemed a bit strange. Lou Fuchi knew that the longer they stayed in this atmosphere, the more disadvantageous it would be for them, husband and wife. He quickly stood up again and bowed to the many Elders of Mirage Mountain and Tang Anxuan, saying, "My son was blind and offended a disciple of Mirage Mountain. Unfortunately, my wife and I only have this one son. Please, Sect Master Tang, can you be lenient? We, husband and wife, will have no complaints about any conditions."

Hearing this, Mo Wuji finally understood why Mirage Mountain didn't welcome this couple and why they still came here. It turned out their son had been detained by Mirage Mountain. As for Lou Fuchi saying they would have no complaints about any conditions, Mo Wuji naturally understood. A Human Immortal mid-stage and a True God before, what complaints would they dare to have coming to Mirage Mountain?

Tang Anxuan said with a fading tone, "Regarding other matters, I would be lenient considering Fellow Daoist Lou's face. But your son, Lou Yang, insulted a female disciple of my Mirage Mountain. His crime is unforgivable. Please go back, the two of you. Otherwise, don't blame my Mirage Mountain for bullying the weak."

As soon as Tang Anxuan finished speaking, Han Qi snorted and interjected, "This is the last time. If you two come to my Mirage Mountain and make trouble again, there will be no way back."

Qu Lin suddenly stood up, her tone excited, and said, "I believe my Lou Yang would not do such a thing. Sect Master Tang, can you let Lou Yang come out? We just want to say a few words to him."

Tang Anxuan's smiling face suddenly turned grim. "What? Does Fellow Daoist Qu think that my Mirage Mountain wants to frame your son? My Mirage Mountain is, after all, the number one sect in the Sea Ferocity Continent. Do we need to frame a small True Lake cultivator?"

From their conversation, Mo Wuji understood another thing. That was that this couple's son, Lou Yang, was being held in Mirage Mountain because he had insulted a female disciple of Mirage Mountain. Detaining someone for this reason was originally unquestionable, but the key was that Mirage Mountain wouldn't let Lou Yang come out and meet his parents.

Even a fool would know there was something wrong in this.

"Hehe, since he's being detained for a crime, of course, it must be made clear in front of everyone. Today, I'll be a witness. Bring that Lou Yang out and let everyone ask him face to face," Mo Wuji patted the table next to him, chuckled, and said.

If he didn't speak, this couple would definitely return the way they came, and if they angered Mirage Mountain, they would likely be imprisoned as well.

Hearing Mo Wuji help them speak, Lou Fuchi and Qu Lin were taken aback again, then bowed deeply and thanked Mo Wuji with great joy.

"Hahaha..." Han Qi, who had been holding back for a long time, couldn't bear it anymore. He jumped up from his seat, laughed loudly, then pointed at Mo Wuji and shouted, "What do you think you are? You ruined the future and cultivation of my Mirage Mountain's number one direct disciple, even half of his life was ruined by you, and you still dare to speak nonsense here. Today, this Immortal will see how much skill you really have..."

After saying this, Han Qi directly leaped up, about to pounce on Mo Wuji.

This time, even Tang Anxuan didn't stop him. Everyone looked at Han Qi, and everyone wanted to know how capable Mo Wuji really was. It was best to make a move in this place.

Soon, Han Qi was stunned. After flying into the air, he was actually restricted by the space and couldn't move at all.

Keep in mind that he was an Earth Immortal, and a Seventh Level Earth Immortal at that. Even a real Heavenly Immortal couldn't restrict him in the space here.

In that instant, he seemed to realize something. The one who could restrict him and dare to come to Mirage Mountain and sit in the seat of honor after ruining the direct descendant genius of Mirage Mountain, the young man in front of him was definitely not as simple as an Earth Immortal. Could this be a real Immortal?

An icy coldness rose from the depths of Han Qi's heart. It seemed that he had never felt so cold since he could remember.
