"Mistress." Xuanwu, Mystic One, and Mystic Two all knelt respectfully, half kneeling on the ground. Xuanyuan Chen stood with his hands behind his back and had an extremely indifferent expression on his face, but the gentleness in his eyes was exceptionally obvious.
"Yes." Xie Qingrong replied indifferently.
Xuanyuan Chen grasped onto Xie Qingrong's fingertips, his indifferent eyes stared at the three people kneeling in front of him, and coldly said: "Did you get the thing?"
Black Turtle nodded and handed the treasure map and Chief Order over to Xuanyuan Chen.
Although Xie Qingrong was his current master, when it came to her former master, Xuanyuan Chen, he subconsciously followed her master's instructions.
With that, Xuanyuan Chen threw the treasure map and the Chief Order into Xie Qingrong's arms. His casual attitude made it seem as if these two things were ordinary things.
But when his gaze landed on Xie Qingrong's beautiful face, he instantly turned gentle.
"Mistress, they have already begun attacking Flowering Moon Church." Black Turtle respectfully reported the information that was about to happen.
Xie Qingrong hadn't even looked at the object in her embrace when she heard this. Her eyebrows raised slightly, and there was a taunting yet not a smile in her eyes. However, the smile on her lips was extremely beautiful, "Chen, how about we go and take a look?"
The group of martial artists who claimed to care for justice finally couldn't hold it in and wanted to take action. They couldn't help but feel the ugly greed and jealousy in their hearts and started attacking the innocent.
"Alright." Xuanyuan Chen rubbed Xie Qingrong's little head and spat out a single word in an extremely indifferent manner, but his eyes were still so gentle, as if his eyes were enough to drown everything in them, and could even melt ice and snow that wouldn't melt for a thousand years.
Cen Huayue and Xu Huiqing were in front and Mu Duqiu was carrying him on her back, walking towards the direction of the Flowering Moon Church. As they got closer, Cen Huayue and the others could already hear the punitive words of those so-called righteous people.
Cen Huayue had a total of four disciples beside him. The eldest disciple Xu Huiqing, the second disciple Zhou Zhi Zhi Zhi, the third disciple Mo Yu, and the youngest disciple Ding Min.
Today, the eldest disciple, Xu Huiqing, had disappeared, and the Sect Leader was not in the sect either.
As the Sect Leader's disciple, Zhou Zhizhi, Mo Yu, and Ding Min decisively stood at the entrance of the Flowering Moon Church, using their weak bodies to block the approaching martial artists.
Ding Min's beautiful face was completely red, but she was not shy.
"You self-proclaimed righteous martial artists, all of you are very dignified. When have our Flowering Moon Church ever done such heinous acts, you kept slandering us, and in this disgusting name, you entangled martial artists to suppress our Flowering Moon Church. If a tiger does not show off his might, you can just treat me like a sick cat. "
Zhou Zhizhi and Mo Yu's faces were filled with surprise, their gazes at Ding Min became extremely complicated. This Junior Martial Sister had always been a headache for him. Relying on the Sect Leader's favor, she had always been willful and spoiled, causing trouble without reason.
However, none of them expected that she would say such words.
Zhou Zhizhi pursed her lips. She seemed to want to say something, but in the end, she didn't.
Mo Yu expressionlessly looked at the group of "decent people" eyeing her, her fingers tightly gripping her sword. She knew that her Junior Martial Sister's words would definitely enrage these people.
She was already prepared to sacrifice her life for the Flowering Moon Church.
Cen Huayue looked at the three little girls who had been by her side since childhood, and were personally raised by her.
She sighed in her heart. She hadn't made a mistake back then.
With heavy emotions, he patted Xu Huiqing's shoulders and instructed him in a low voice: "Hui Qing, you are the most calm of the four disciples. Over the years, I have seen your abilities for myself."
As she spoke, her voice became softer, and her slender fingers caressed the unconscious Ouyang Qiuyue's face. It seemed as though she was unwilling and sad, but in the end, she relaxed and relieved.
He placed one of Ouyang Qiuyue's hands on top of Xu Huiqing's hand and continued to entrust her with the task: "I'm handing my biological daughter to you, take good care of her."
It was the first time he did not care about the matter of being first or second, and could not care about the crimes that were committed below, as he pulled on Cen Huayue's sleeve.
Trembling, she asked, "Why didn't Master take care of Master's daughter personally?"
Cen Huayue stayed silent for a while, brushed Xu Huiqing's hand off her sleeve, and turned to walk in the direction of Ding Min and the other two.
There was a sigh in the air, and a few very light words.
"I want to as well, if I still have a chance."
Xu Huiqing's left hand clenched into a fist as she gave it away. A bitter smile appeared on the corners of her mouth, but she still brought Ouyang Qiuyue to an extremely secluded place, carefully observing the movements of the Flowering Moon Church.
Mu Duqiu turned around and followed Cen Huayue.
"A Month, I'll go with you." Mu Duqiu walked beside Cen Huayue and carefully suggested.
Cen Huayue turned her head, and stared at Mu Duqiu with an extremely complicated gaze. Mu Duqiu, however, saw the love, frustration, and remorse in Cen Huayue's eyes, but very quickly, Cen Huayue's gaze shifted away.
Seeing Cen Huayue and Mu Duqiu standing at the same time, everyone could not help but be excited. There were many among them who would never be able to see an Imperial Advisor like this in their entire lives.
Twisting his nails. She was frowning uneasily, but when Ding Min and the other two from Flowering Moon Church saw that their Sect Leader had returned, they felt that their leader had returned.
The unease and anxiety in his heart had all been covered up by these people who were tasked with the quest. It was impossible for these people who finally found out to tell the truth about him to the public.
On top of the tree, where Xuanyuan Chen and the rest were waiting impatiently for him, Xuanyuan Chen imitated Xuanyuan Chen's action, and leaned on the big tree.
Xie Qingrong weakly leaned into Xuanyuan Chen's embrace, and whispered a few words into Xuanyuan Chen's ear. Xuanyuan Chen's complexion instantly faded into nothing, and his originally calm eyes condensed into a violent storm, bringing about a frightening chill.
"Is that true?" Xuanyuan Chen's face darkened, he pinched Xie Qingrong's wrist and asked.
The veins on Xuanyuan Chen's hand bulged, to an outsider it looked like Xuanyuan Chen was bullying Xie Qingrong, but the two of them knew very well, that Xuanyuan Chen did not actually use any strength.
He was unwilling to let Xie Qingrong receive even the slightest amount of injuries, and he was even more unwilling to let Xie Qingrong encounter any sort of evil deeds because of him.
Cen Huayue and Mu Duqiu stood beside Ding Min and patted their shoulders to show their encouragement. Not only did the three girls not retreat in fear, they stood even more firmly beside Cen Huayue and Mu Duqiu.
When the so-called chivalrous warriors saw that Mu Duqiu was actually sitting in front of the spirit demon woman that they were fighting against, they were angered to the point that their faces turned green.
