Chapter 504 Nonsense
Elder Mo Lan also walked over quickly and looked at the two people with a serious expression. He frowned slightly and said in a firm tone: "They can't die now. They should know something."
After all, judging from the timeline, such a large-scale explosion occurred in the back mountain not long after they came out of the forbidden area.
This kind of coincidence makes it hard not to be suspicious.
Elder Mo Lan had a vague intuition that all this must be related to the things in the forbidden area.
After Gu Li and Mu Yunxi were fed the pill, their eyelids trembled slowly and they opened their eyes with difficulty. Their eyes were full of fatigue and weakness, as if they had been seriously injured and had not yet recovered.
Gu Li's body seemed to be pressed down by a heavy stone. Every movement was unbearable. She took a lot of effort to sit up with difficulty, and then she burst into coughing violently: "Cough, cough, what happened?" The voice was hoarse and weak, as if it would disappear at any time.
Elder Mo Lan stared at Gu Li with a look of doubt in his eyes: "You don't know?"
Gu Li tried to stay alert, shook his head slightly, and said with an unsteady breath: "Disciple doesn't know."
Elder Mu Cang also stepped forward and asked with some curiosity: "What happened to you in the forbidden area?"
Gu Li paused, his thoughts returned to the thrilling scene in the forbidden area, and he slowly said: "The sealed Qilin."
At this moment, Qilin's powerful voice suddenly rang in her mind: "Didn't you say you wouldn't let me be exposed?"
Gu Li responded silently in his heart, but remained calm on the surface: "It didn't reveal your position."
Hearing this, everyone present widened their eyes in shock, with disbelief written all over their faces.
Elder Xuanfeng was so shocked that he took a step forward and raised his voice unconsciously: "Are you talking about the ancient auspicious beast Qilin?"
Gu Li nodded gently and said affirmatively: "Yes."
Elder Mo Lan glanced at the disciples who were busy rescuing people, his expression solemn, and said in a deep voice: "Take them back first."
So, Gu Li and Mu Yunxi were like two lambs to be slaughtered. They were carried by the other two elders and staggered all the way to a yard.
As soon as they arrived, they were thrown to the ground mercilessly, with dust flying everywhere.
Gu Li felt as if all the bones in her body were about to fall apart, and the pain in her body came like a surging tide. She gritted her teeth, endured the pain, sat up, and cursed all the elders in her heart.
Elder Xuanfeng frowned and said with displeasure: "Stand and talk."
Mu Yunxi looked aggrieved: "Several great elders, we can't stand up."
Elder Mo Lan waved his hand, looking a little impatient: "No need to talk about so many rules, just sit on the chair."
The most urgent task now is to figure out what happened in the back mountain. These two men are injured, so just sit there.
When Gu Li and the other man heard this, they seemed to have received a special pardon. Without caring about anything else, they limped and sat down on a stone bench nearby.
Elder Mu Cang couldn't wait to ask, "What is this Qilin you mentioned?"
Gu Li took a deep breath and began to narrate: "We entered the forbidden area by mistake. The forbidden area was like a huge maze. We walked for a long time but couldn't get out. As a result, we accidentally saw the sealed Qilin breaking the seal.
When it broke through the seal, the powerful force surged like a tidal wave, and we were both knocked unconscious. When we woke up, the Qilin was gone."
Elder Xuanfeng was still a little skeptical and asked, "Are you telling the truth?"
Mu Yunxi nodded quickly, with a sincere look on her face: "What the disciple said is true. If the elders don't believe it, you can go over there and take a look. Not long after a while, there must still be the aura of Qilin there."
The three elders looked at each other and saw the surprise that was hard to conceal in each other's eyes.
The Qilin is an ancient auspicious beast. If we can make a contract with it, then when we fight against the Divine Spirit Sect, our sect will have another powerful warrior at the peak of the super spiritual realm.
Elder Mu Cang suddenly remembered something and asked, "What about the explosion in the back mountain?"
Gu Li's heart tightened, but he pretended to be calm: "Do the elders suspect that we did it?"
Elder Xuanfeng snorted coldly: "What a coincidence."
Gu Li said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "The elders should be able to see our cultivation level. With our cultivation level, we are not able to do it."
Elder Mo Lan waved his hand, as if he had made a decision: "Okay, go back and have a good rest. From now on, the two of you are the disciples of the three of us."
Gu Li and Mu Yunxi's eyes instantly flashed with surprise. They stood up, but did not kneel down. Instead, they stood and saluted: "Disciple greets the three masters."
Elder Mo Lan was so focused on checking the situation in the forbidden area at the back of the mountain that he didn't notice these details. He waved his hand and said, "Back off!"
Gu Li and Mu Yunxi said in unison: "Disciples, take your leave." Then the two of them supported each other and limped away.
After returning to the dormitory, as soon as the door was closed, Gu Li and Mu Yunxi seemed to be released from some kind of confinement and instantly became lively again.
Mu Yunxi quickly took out an exquisite little jade bottle from her storage bag, poured out the faintly fluorescent pills inside, and put them into her mouth one by one, while she spoke vaguely: "We directly worshipped three masters, there is something wrong with this."
Gu Li sat on the bedside, picked up a fruit and took a bite, the juice splashed out, she shrugged nonchalantly: "Indeed, but it doesn't matter, take it one step at a time, the worst that can happen is to run."
Although Jiuying has fallen into a deep sleep, it is not difficult for him to escape with the strong support of Qilin.
The two of them did not intend to dwell too much on this issue. After all, there was something more important at the moment - healing.
After a quick tidying up, they entered the Chaos Ring together to meditate.
The two men sat cross-legged, surrounded by spiritual energy, and devoted themselves to repairing their injuries.
On the other side, after they left, the three supreme elders, Mo Lan, Mu Cang and Xuan Feng, rushed to the forbidden area in the back mountain without stopping.
As soon as Elder Xuanfeng stepped into the forbidden area, he raised his hand and grabbed in the air. His expression was solemn and he said in a deep voice: "There is indeed a very powerful aura here, but I am not sure if it is a Qilin."
After all, the Qilin is an ancient auspicious beast, and none of them have ever seen it in person, so it is difficult to determine its identity based on its aura alone.
Elder Mu Cang nodded slightly and added: "Those two disciples probably don't have the guts to lie. I just checked their meridians and found that there is indeed a residual aura from here."
Elder Mo Lan frowned and thought for a moment, then condensed a spiritual power transmission note from his fingertips and quickly sent a message to the Spirit Pavilion Master: "The three of us have some things to do. If we haven't returned by then, arrange for Gu Li and Mu Yunxi to enter the small world."
