Mu Xiaoling was sleeping soundly. When she opened her eyes, the sky was already dark and the pavilion was lit with a candlestick. The faint yellow light from the candle barely illuminated the pavilion.
"You woke up from your sleep?" Feng Jiuyang did not stop what he was doing. His voice was as gentle as before, and it carried a bit of a polite smile, causing people to feel at ease listening to him.
Mu Xiaoling, on the other hand, knew that this kind of person was the hardest to approach. Although this kind of person seemed courteous and courteous to everyone, he actually drew a circle around himself. He was the only one inside and everyone else was outside.
However, so what? Tang Ling was just waiting for her husband and wife to make their arrangements before she left. She was merely a friend that she met by chance, so she would naturally greet them when they met in the future.
"Maybe it's because I'm too tired from the day. Sorry."
Feng Jiuyang turned his head to look at her, "No worries, I will occasionally play the zither in this pavilion."
Mu Xiaoling asked, "Young Noble Feng must not be someone from the Immortal Yang City, right?"
Feng Jiuyang slightly smiled: "Since Miss Mu knows of my elder brother's existence, could it be that you still don't know where I came from?"
This was an open test.
Mu Xiaoling looked at him. "Middle Realm?"
He stopped playing the zither and lowered his head to lightly stroke the zither strings, "My big brother went down to the world because the Lie family's actions were abnormal, but mine came down to the world because a few days ago, a divine artifact was born that disturbed the three realms. My father specifically sent me down to investigate."
"A divine artifact?" Mu Xiaoling was stunned for a moment before she thought back to what Xiao Yu had said. Her Spiritual Abyss seemed to be a divine tool, but at the moment, she couldn't fully display its might. Thus, she didn't know how useful her divine tool was.
After all, there is a large amount of missing information on martial arts in the lower realms, so it would be normal for him not to know about it. "Currently, there are only three known divine artifacts in the Three Realms, namely the Divine Doctor's Southern Palace's Divine Nong Cauldron, the Gui Yuan Sect's Sect Guardian Treasure Circular Seal, and the Demon Sovereign's Sword that was sealed five hundred years ago."
Mu Xiaoling was surprised as well. "There are only three divine artifacts in this vast Three Realms?"
"That's right." Feng Jiuyang stood up, walked to the side of the table, and sat down in front of Mu Xiaoling. "The requirements for the birth of a Divine Artifact is extremely harsh, and it's hard to produce even one in a thousand years. Furthermore, due to the materials, there are different levels of abilities between Divine Weapons.
Mu Xiaoling was silent. She'd heard Xiao Yu speak so casually and had always thought that divine artifacts weren't too rare. But now, it seemed that she was wrong.
Feng Jiuyang continued, "However, when the Demon Sovereign's Divine Sword was released, it was not very peaceful, and that was one of the reasons why the various sects wanted to seal the Demon Lord. Since ancient times, there has always been such a treasure, so who wouldn't want it?"
Mu Xiaoling thought about Xiao Yu in the Beast Repellent Space and asked, "Who did the sword end up in?"
Feng Jiuyang said, "That sword was imprisoned in the Gui Yuan Sect's forbidden area. The God Ruling Sword was already alive, and no one could subdue it. Later on, someone came up with an idea: first imprison the sword and torture it for eighteen hundred years. Once its temper has calmed down, we can go and reclaim its ownership."
Mu Xiaoling laughed coldly. This group of animals was truly not as good as the others. She said, "You know quite a lot about them."
Feng Jiuyang pulled up the hair by his ear: "From the books, my Feng Clan's Book Collection Vault hides all matters under the heavens. As long as you want to know, you will definitely find the answer."
Mu Xiaoling nodded. She got up and flew back to the shore. There was already a servant waiting there to lure her to the guest room and sleep peacefully.
The next morning, when she had just gotten up and was ready, she heard a knock on the door. When she opened it, she saw Tang Ling and Qi Tai standing there with dark expressions on their faces.
Mu Xiaoling let the two enter the room and closed the door. She curiously asked, "What happened?"
Qi Tai pursed his lips and looked at Tang Ling. Tang Ling sighed, "We, husband and wife, know a caravan leader in Immortal Yang City. We originally wanted to stay in the caravan to go to Ling State, but before we got there, we heard that something happened."
Mu Xiaoling asked, "What's the matter?"
Tang Ling said, "Someone died miserably. The corpse was surrounded by demonic energy. It was obvious that they were killed by the demons."
Mu Xiaoling was surprised. "There are demons inside the city?"
Tang Ling took a deep breath, "Probably. The key point is that the City Lord's Mansion's people are afraid that the criminals will escape, so they sealed off the city gate."
As soon as Tang Ling finished her sentence, a knock came from the door.
The three of them looked at each other. Mu Xiaoling got up and opened the door. It was Feng Jiuyang.
Feng Jiuyang helplessly said, "It has already sealed the city. I'm afraid Lady Mu will be staying in the city for a while."
Mu Xiaoling asked, "Does Young Noble Feng know the reason why the city is sealed?"
Feng Jiuyang indeed knew things that others didn't know: "Not only are there demons in the city, but the City Lord's Mansion was robbed last night, resulting in the loss of the main seal."
Mu Xiaoling was quite surprised as the seal was a necessary seal for the mayor to issue an order. Now that the seal was lost, the city would no longer be peaceful.
However, before the City Lord Seal officially passed on, it could only be carried by the City Lord. Now that the City Lord Seal has been thrown away, not only is it a problem of a letter, but there is also the problem of the old and the new. In order to prevent accidents, the Eldest Young Master decided to seal the city. "
Mu Xiaoling was silent for a moment. "Thank you for telling me."
Feng Jiuyang sighed, shook his head, and left.
Mu Xiaoling closed the door and sat back down.
Tang Ling and Qi Tai listened on from inside the house, but they were very anxious. If they did not open the gate for a long time, they would not be able to make it to the Ling Country's secret realm.
Tang Ling voiced out her worries. However, Mu Xiaoling shook her head and said, "The secret realm is still not the best. I'm more worried that the other party is after us. Everything is so coincidental. It's more like they are afraid of us leaving Immortal Yang City."
Tang Ling was at a loss, "But why is that? How could we possibly have treasures that are worthy of them making such a big fuss over?"
Mu Xiaoling was also silent.
Of course there was. Her Spiritual Abyss was one, Xiao Yu was another. It was just that these were all in her sea of consciousness and couldn't be discovered.
But apart from that …
Mu Xiaoling was at a loss. However, a sense of unease arose from the bottom of her heart. She had a feeling that this matter wasn't simple, but it wasn't in her style to sit and wait for death. "Let's go out and take a look. There might be some clues."
Tang Ling immediately nodded. "I also think we should go and take a look."
Since Tang Ling agreed, Qi Tai naturally would not object.
