Old Five is a Goose.
Chapter 1122 Three Loose Saints
Mi Qianqian didn't have the best reputation in the Lingxiao Divine Sect, but this didn't affect Mo Wuji in the slightest. He didn't choose his friends based on their reputation, but rather on whether they were compatible. If they were, he would befriend them; if not, even if they were paragons of virtue, they would go their separate ways.
"What happened to Sister Mi?" Mo Wuji had a pretty good impression of Mi Qianqian.
Xi Fan had completely calmed down. He took a breath and said, "Back then, Senior saved Peak Lord Mi and killed Jing Wei. After that, Peak Lord Mi also left the Small Lingxiao Sect. However, after the divine continent's laws of heaven and earth were restored, Peak Lord Mi suddenly returned and found my Small Lingxiao Sect. Peak Lord Mi spoke with my father about something, and the next day, Peak Lord Mi went to the Mi Clan Manor alone.
"But after Peak Lord Mi entered the Mi Clan Manor, she disappeared. Seven days later, my father became worried about Peak Lord Mi and took an elder from the Small Lingxiao Sect to the Mi Clan Manor to find Peak Lord Mi..."
Meng Ye suddenly asked, "Were your father and Peak Lord Mi close?"
Xi Fan shook his head and said, "No, the person my father admired the most was Senior Mo Dan. Peak Lord Mi was someone that Mo Dan had instructed my father to look after, so naturally my father couldn't stand by and watch when something happened to Peak Lord Mi."
Xi Fan wasn't lying. Even after Xi Lingru separated from Mo Wuji, he didn't expect Mo Wuji's accomplishments to reach such heights. Mo Wuji's reputation in the Nirvana Learning Academy grew larger and larger, and Xi Lingru became even more certain that Mo Wuji would be extraordinary in the future. He felt an even stronger desire to befriend Mo Wuji.
However, he had almost no chance to meet Mo Wuji later. The only way to befriend Mo Wuji was to let Mo Wuji know that he valued Mo Wuji's friends very much.
Mo Wuji knew that Xi Lingru was adept at socializing and was a very astute person. He didn't doubt Xi Fan's words and asked, "What happened after that?"
Xi Fan said respectfully, "Before my father entered the Mi Clan Manor, he told me that if he didn't come out, I should try to go to the Nirvana Learning Academy and report this matter to the Nirvana Learning Academy. But at the time, I was worried about my father. After my father disappeared, my mind suddenly became damaged when I approached the Mi Clan Manor, sometimes good and sometimes bad. I still remembered my father's words and didn't step into the Mi Clan Manor, but instinctively warned everyone who wanted to enter the Mi Clan Manor."
"What was your father's cultivation when he entered the manor?" Mo Wuji asked again.
"First layer of God Transformation Realm," Xi Fan replied.
Mo Wuji nodded. "I understand. Now, I'm going to enter the Mi Clan Manor with my friend. You should go back to the Small Lingxiao Sect."
Xi Lingru, at the first layer of the God Transformation Realm, disappeared after entering the Mi Clan Manor. It was clear that this Mi Clan Manor was not simple.
"Senior Mo, you can't go into this Mi Clan Manor. I'll go to the Nirvana Learning Academy immediately..."
Before Mo Wuji could finish speaking, Mo Wuji waved his hand and said, "The Nirvana Learning Academy is no longer the Nirvana Learning Academy it once was. Although it's still the largest sect in the divine continent, some changes have occurred. Even if you go to the Nirvana Learning Academy, you won't be able to solve the problem. Don't worry, if I see your father in the Mi Clan Manor, I will definitely help him."
"Thank you, Senior Mo," Xi Fan quickly bowed to the ground.
"Let's go, Fellow Daoist Meng," Mo Wuji said to Meng Ye and directly stepped into the Mi Clan Manor.
...
The Mi Clan Manor was the same as it was many years ago. It hadn't changed even after the laws of heaven and earth in the divine continent were restored. At least after Mo Wuji and Meng Ye entered the Mi Clan Manor, it was still a desolate and bleak place.
"Fellow Daoist Mo, where was the teleportation array from the Sea of Extinction back then?" After passing through the dilapidated walls overgrown with weeds, the two arrived at the depths of the manor. Meng Ye observed the surroundings while asking.
Mo Wuji pointed to the inner courtyard of a collapsed pavilion and said, "It's below here. Use earth escape, and you can see a stone house. There's a teleportation array in the stone house..."
Mo Wuji's voice suddenly stopped. He looked at Meng Ye in surprise. Meng Ye's face was pale, and his body was trembling.
A faint primordial spirit was slowly being pulled out of the top of Meng Ye's head. Seeing Meng Ye's panicked and anxious eyes, Mo Wuji knew that Meng Ye was in trouble.
A chilling coldness swept over, and Mo Wuji subconsciously shivered.
Mo Wuji quickly reacted. His spiritual will couldn't scan anything, but when his Storage Divine Lattice scanned out, he immediately saw a faint handprint extracting Meng Ye's primordial spirit.
Meng Ye, a quasi-sage in the early stages, was completely powerless to resist. He couldn't even utter a word for help.
Mo Wuji unhesitatingly fired a spiritual will arrow. His spiritual will in the sea of consciousness was restricted, but he still had his Storage Divine Lattice spiritual will.
After the spiritual will arrow, Mo Wuji's crescent halberd transformed into a white light and fell from the void.
"Chirp!" A shrill sound tore through the silence of the Mi Clan Manor. Then, a red glow exploded, and the surroundings returned to the same silence as before.
Meng Ye, who had recovered, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said to Mo Wuji, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Mo. If you hadn't helped, my primordial spirit would have been taken away by this bastard... Huh..."
Meng Ye seemed to have remembered something at this point and looked at Mo Wuji in surprise. "Why wasn't your primordial spirit attacked, and you can still use magical treasures and divine abilities..."
Here, Meng Ye could still use divine abilities because he had his own secret techniques. But why could Mo Wuji use divine abilities, and his primordial spirit was so stable?
After Mo Wuji entered the God Transformation Realm, if he didn't deliberately reveal his Dao aura, not to mention Meng Ye, even Huan Ti wouldn't be able to tell that his Dao was a mortal one.
Mo Wuji ignored Meng Ye. He didn't have a primordial spirit, so who could take it away? As for his Storage Divine Lattice, he wouldn't tell anyone about it.
"Fellow Daoist Meng, I think there are some things you need to tell me. Otherwise, it will be very detrimental to us." Mo Wuji's tone was very serious this time. It was only because the Extreme Ice Sky Bamboo was too important to Ji Li that he didn't really want to join forces with Meng Ye, who was always trying to hide something.
Meng Ye took a breath and used his domain to protect his surroundings. He raised his hand and cast several soundproof restrictions before saying, "Fellow Daoist Mo, now things are beyond my expectations. Even if you didn't say it, I would tell you. You know about the Godhood matter, and you know that I am one of the Three Loose Saints. Naturally, you also know that the Three Loose Saints are three people. One of them is called Dui Zhaoren. The Extreme Ice Sky Bamboo I'm talking about belongs to this person."
"You're saying Dui Zhaoren is here?" Mo Wuji asked doubtfully.
Meng Ye shook his head. "I'm not sure now. During the calamity back then, the three of us Loose Saints joined forces. Midway, I personally saw Yuan Mao fall and his soul completely destroyed. Dui Zhaoren and I worked together to escape to a void forest. Then, we separately hid our treasures in this void forest. I'm sure Dui Zhaoren would hide his Extreme Ice Sky Bamboo there. Because Dui Zhaoren was seriously injured at the time, his world was unstable. He definitely wouldn't dare to keep something like the Extreme Ice Sky Bamboo, which could restore his future great path, by his side. Later, my guess was correct. Not long after, I personally saw Dui Zhaoren's world shatter."
"What about later?" Mo Wuji no longer had his previous expectations. So many years had passed. Even if Dui Zhaoren had hidden the Extreme Ice Sky Bamboo in that void forest, maybe that guy had already gone back to retrieve it.
"Later, Dui Zhaoren and I joined forces to set up a void teleportation array from that void forest. As a result, we teleported to this Mi Clan Manor you mentioned. We recorded the location of the teleportation array, and after inscribing some teleportation array patterns here, we agreed to leave," Meng Ye continued.
Mo Wuji frowned and asked, "How can you be sure that Dui Zhaoren hasn't returned? Maybe he's already come back, and after setting up the teleportation array, he went to that void forest and took the things away."
Meng Ye shook his head. "Because setting up the teleportation array to come here initially relied on me. Dui Zhaoren's array skills are far inferior to mine. Even if he comes here, he can't complete the task of setting up the teleportation array alone... But now, I have some doubts..."
"Doubts about what?" Mo Wuji's heart skipped a beat. He was worried that Dui Zhaoren had taken the Extreme Ice Sky Bamboo away.
Meng Ye replied, "I suspect that Dui Zhaoren has completely recovered now. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the ability to extract my primordial spirit."
There was another sentence that Meng Ye didn't say. It was very likely that Dui Zhaoren was extracting his primordial spirit to force him to complete the void teleportation array. If Dui Zhaoren's strength far exceeded him and Mo Wuji, then how he, Meng Ye, would choose was another matter.
"Where are the teleportation array patterns you inscribed back then? Take me there," Mo Wuji said in a deep voice, staring at Meng Ye.
