”Who are you?” Mo Wuji stared calmly at the monk in front of him.
Heng Ke was also a monk, causing him to suspect that this other monk could be a helper of Heng Ke. However, even if all four of them surround and attack him now, he wouldn't need to worry.
Qing Yang hurriedly came forward and said, ”Sect Head Mo, please don't misunderstand. This is Sala Buddha Immortal Domain Seven Buddha Great Temple’s Buddhist Emperor Xing Shan.”
Xing Shan? Mo Wuji inwardly thought that this name was so filled with love. [1] After seeing the greedy monks of Great Kun Buddhist Sect, Mo Wuji had always lacked favour towards the Buddhist sects in Sala Buddha Immortal Domain. However, he did have a favourable impression towards Seven Buddha Great Temple. Before he entered the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, he had met Seven Buddha Great Temple’s Monk Da Ning.
Monk Da Ning’s character was really not bad; he had always done things in the light. This was unlike Great Lin Buddhist Sect who only knew how to plot in the shadows.
”This poor monk is Xing Shan.” Xing Shan looked friendly and his tone was also amiable.
Mo Wuji clasped his fists and said, ”So it's Immortal Friend Xing Shan. Previously, I had the fortune of meeting your sect's Immortal Friend Da Ning.”
When Xing Shan heard Mo Wuji mention Da Ning, he hurriedly asked, ”Is Da Ning doing well?”
Mo Wuji replied, ”I only had a brief encounter with Immortal Friend Da Ning. We were separated midway and I didn't see him again. Thereafter, I also didn't hear any news of him, so I'm no longer clear about his exact situation.”
”Ai!” Monk Xing Shan sighed but no longer asked any further.
”Is there any special reason why the few of you have stopped me?” Mo Wuji no longer continued acting against Heng Ke.
The few of them turned to face Qing Yang, seemingly wanting Qing Yang to explain the situation.
Qing Yang took the lead and said, ”Sect Head Mo, before you came to the Immortal World, you should have been the Sect Head of Tian Ji Sect, right?”
”That's right.” Mo Wuji nodded. This sort of thing would be revealed in a simple investigation. Moreover, there was no need for him to continue hiding it. With his capabilities, he wouldn't need to worry if all of Tian Ji Sect's enemies came after him; he will face them all.
When Qing Yang heard Mo Wuji's words, she heaved a slight sigh of relief and continued, ”Someone discovered a place in the Immortal World which is emitting a violent energy of death and destruction. As long as anyone entered, then that person would undoubtedly die. Eventually, someone finally managed to escape alive but he died soon after. That person only said two words when he came out: Tian Ji.”
”Are you able to show me an illustration of that place?” When Mo Wuji heard the words 'Tian Ji’, his interest was immediately piqued.
Qing Yang was clearly prepared; she immediately retrieved a jade letter and passed it to Mo Wuji.
The moment Mo Wuji sent his spiritual will in, he could see that the surroundings shown within this jade letter were roughly the same as the map that Su Zi’An gave him. This was also the same as the faint diagrams on the Tian Ji Sect Head Token.
Mo Wuji had long wanted to take a look at this place, it was just that he had never known its exact location; so it had been delayed for so long. He didn't expect that someone else would discover it, and it even seemed to be a danger zone.
”Sect Head Mo, we've been there once before. Whether it was Buddhist Emperor Xing Shan or Heavenly Emperor Gai Ying, they both had a premonition that this place was extremely dangerous. If this danger wasn't resolved, it could cause the entire Immortal World to collapse. Thereafter, Buddhist Emperor Xing Shan and Heavenly Emperor Gai invited Heavenly Emperor Zizai and Immortal Emperor Jin Ping. They also had the premonition that this place could cause the collapse of the entire Immortal World.
Seeing that this matter is far from simple, the four of us prepared to invite an expert to take a look. We happened to learn that Sect Head Mo had returned, which was why we specially hurried over to find Sect Head Mo,” Qing Yang's way of speaking was straightforward and she also explained things clearly.
Mo Wuji also knew clearly about what their original intentions were. What 'happened to learn that Sect Head Mo had returned’? What 'specially hurried over to find Sect Head Mo’? They probably were prepared to report this incident to the Very High Heavens. It was just that they came to know that Mo Wuji had screwed the Very High Heavens and had even killed many Immortal Emperors of the Very High Heavens. This was why they decided to change their plans at the last minute to request for his help instead.
Of course, Mo Wuji saw no need in revealing that he knew of such matters.
Now that the map towards Tian Ji had appeared, he would have made a trip there even if Qing Yang and co. didn't invite him.
”Sect Head Mo, Heavenly Emperor Zizai is adroit in the Dao Studies Of Changes. His opinions are sometimes more precise than ours.” By the side, Gai Ying added.
Mo Wuji knew of Heavenly Emperor Zizai's skill with the Study of Changes. However, Mo Wuji didn't dare to respect Heavenly Emperor Zizai's skill. This fella predicted that Lei Hongji was going to be the saviour of the Immortal World; he, Mo Wuji, didn't believe that bullsh*t. Would a person like Lei Hongji sacrifice himself to save the Immortal World? This fella could probably do better trying to fool the dead.
”I wonder where Heavenly Emperor Zizai is?” Mo Wuji casually asked.
Monk Xing Shan answered with his palms placed together, ”Immortal Friend Zizai and Immortal Devil Path's Immortal Emperor Jin Ping are currently guarding over that place, along with several other Immortal Emperors.”
”Alright, I agree to go. But before this, I still have to handle some matters, so I would have to push this matter off for some time,” Mo Wuji decided on the spot.
Xing Shan placed his palms together once more, ”May I ask what matters will Sect Head Mo be attending to? And how long would it take?”
