Chapter 124 New Heart
Chapter 124 New Heart
At the same time, on the edge of Qingqiu City.
As the sword light fell, the power of the city defense formation also locked onto Mo Buyu. An extremely powerful aura was projected at him, making him feel as if a thorn in his back was attached.
But what made him even more frightened was the figure that appeared in the sword light.
Hedao sword cultivator!
"I am Mobuyu from the Great Desert Sword Sect. May I ask your honorable title, Senior?"
The thought of escaping was extinguished at this moment. Escape from the hands of a Hedao swordsman?
What's the difference between that and seeking death?
Come to think of it, according to the information I have obtained, when something like an ancient cultivator comes out of seclusion, isn't it usually Fanxu who comes first, and if he can't handle it, then Hedao will step in?
How come I skipped the stage of returning to the void?
"Que Xie."
Mo Buyu only felt that the sword cultivator named Quexie was looking at him, and the terrifying pressure even made his magic power and soul tremble...
Well, not really.
True Lord Quexie just looked at him calmly.
"Don't be nervous, my friend. I am the director of the Ancient Cultivator Response Department - the Righteous Alliance Branch. You are not a demonic cultivator. As long as you have not done anything evil, I will not attack you."
Evil things?
Does it count if I just searched someone’s soul?
Mo Buyu opened his mouth and was about to say something.
"Fellow Taoist, please wait."
Following the sound, I saw the person also carrying a long sword on his back, with a head full of white hair casually tied behind his head, a pair of sharp and deep eyes, a thin figure but straight as a pine tree, and every step he took seemed to be measured with a ruler.
Mo Buyu was stunned: "Uncle Master?!"
True Lord Quexie frowned slightly: "What do you mean, fellow Daoist?"
"Buyu is a junior in my sect and he is a kind person, so I came to see him." Mo Buyu's uncle walked behind Mo Buyu and said, "Don't worry, fellow Daoist, I know the rules."
"Fellow Daoist understands."
True Lord Quexie didn't think much about it, he just looked at Mo Buyu and asked, "Friend Mo, have you killed anyone since you came out of seclusion?"
Mo Bu paused for a moment, then said firmly, "No."
"Have you ever wantonly taken away people's essence, desire, lifespan, and blood?"
"Never!"
Life span and qi and blood are fine.
Desire?
What do I, a sword cultivator, need that thing for?
"Have you ever used soul-searching techniques on people in order to understand the world today?"
"..."
Hearing this, Mo Buyu felt a little nervous and turned to look at his uncle.
"be honest."
His heart trembled, and he immediately realized that he must not lie.
"……Have."
As he said this, his whole body tensed up.
However, the expected thunderous means did not appear, but a faint questioning voice sounded in his ears again.
"During the soul search, was the soul of the person being searched damaged?"
"No! And I left some spirit stones as compensation!"
Hearing this, True Lord Quexie finally nodded.
The ancient cultivator response department will not be too strict with the ancient cultivators who are released from confinement. As long as the crimes they have committed are not too serious, they can discuss it with each other.
People like Mo Buyu are considered good among the ancient cultivators who have come out of seclusion.
Afterwards, True Lord Quexie asked a few more questions and let Mo Buyu's uncle take him away first.
Of course, he would have to go to the ancient cultivator response department to register afterwards. All ancient cultivators in the Return to Void Realm who were coming out of retreat had to go through this process.
But if he is at the level of He Dao or above, then that is not necessary. It is enough to make sure that he is not the kind of demon cultivator who kills countless people and regards human life as worthless.
…………
In the evening, the city defense formation was lifted.
Citizens of Qingqiu City also gradually came out from the Immortal Sect’s headquarters, schools, and alliance shelters.
Most people only knew that the ancient cultivator who had come out of seclusion had been found and the crisis was resolved, but they had no idea what exactly had happened.
On the street, several hooligans with exaggerated looks were laughing and joking, and flying swords painted with sword energy and thunder sound rumbled past. However, because the materials used for painting were of poor quality, the thunder sound was much louder, exceeding the prescribed limit.
He was eventually caught by the traffic police and sent to the detention center.
Xu Xing, who was standing on the street, witnessed the whole process and couldn't help but smile.
“These people are really everywhere.”
At this moment, he was carrying a black and white Taoist banner with four large characters "Blessings and Misfortunes are up to me" written on it, and the banner was swaying gently in the wind.
Yuanjun was right in front of him, and had set up a small stall. The two of them looked like a group of fortune-telling charlatans.
Whenever she traveled around the Central Continent, she would set up a small stall like the one she was doing now whenever she arrived at a new place.
She would observe the cause and effect and give some pointers to the first person who stopped in front of her stall.
If you are in a good mood, you may even help turn misfortune into fortune.
Soon, two figures were seen walking down the street.
One was thin and weathered, and the other had an ordinary appearance but a hideous scar on his face.
It was Mo Buyu and his uncle.
"Uncle Master, my master, my brothers, are they all okay?"
"They are doing well."
It can even be said to be very good.
"That junior sister...?"
“…She’s very nice too.”
"That's good, that's good!"
Mo Buyu breathed a sigh of relief, even though his uncle said that the process of the Desert Sword Sect's integration into the Righteous Alliance went very smoothly.
But this kind of thing... no matter how you think about it, there must have been a turbulent period.
Fortunately, fortunately my junior sister and everyone else were fine.
In fact, long before he went into seclusion, he had secretly made up his mind that no matter whether it would succeed this time or not, he would propose to his junior sister!
The Hedao swordsman paused, glanced at Mo Buyu, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
However, Mo Buyu was still immersed in his own fantasy world at this time and did not notice the strange expression on his uncle's face.
When he suppressed his thoughts, he looked up and saw the strange stall on the roadside.
A blindfolded elegant woman, with a beautiful appearance and an ethereal aura.
Looking further back, I saw a man carrying a black and white Taoist banner with four big characters written on it: "Blessings and misfortunes are up to me."
What a loud tone!
Xu Xing: “…”
Mo Buyu's heart moved: "Uncle Master."
"Go ahead." The Hedao swordsman nodded slightly.
It's just right. I can let Buyu divert his attention first while I think about how to tell him the truth in a more tactful way.
After getting the consent from his uncle, Mo Buyu came to the stall.
"I think……"
He had just said two words when a piece of paper floated in front of him.
"I'll give you a few words."
The sound entered his ears, and then Mo Buyu felt a flash before his eyes.
When his vision became clear again, the stall, the Taoist banners and the beautiful woman had disappeared, as if they had never existed.
He was startled, but at the same time he also saw the words written on the note.
【New Heart Delight】
Ok?
What does it mean?
Just as he was about to reach out to take it, the note caught fire and was burned to ashes in an instant.
Hedao?
"Uncle Master!" A series of strange events made Mo Buyu dare not neglect it anymore. "Just now, the fortune teller gave me a note and disappeared!"
"Fortune teller? What else are you talking about?"
The Hedao swordsman who had just let him pass seemed to have completely forgotten what had just happened.
Mo Buyu became more and more frightened. Even his uncle didn't notice it. Could it be... a master above the level of Hedao?
Just as he was about to continue explaining, he noticed that his uncle was looking at him with a complicated look in his eyes.
"Don't worry, Master, I have some news to tell you."
