Li Mo had not yet spoken; he was thinking about what to say.
Qin Yuzhi's face was frosty, and she spoke with immense authority:
"Immortal, you are truly too kind, too lenient with these unworthy Juniors; they are so presumptuous in front of their ancestors!"
“???”
Unworthy... Junior?
The scolding was too harsh, even worse than my dad; it directly elevated their seniority by a lot.
Yuwen Cuojin was originally a great Devil Head, and no matter how steady he was, he wouldn't change his perverse nature. Just as he was about to erupt, his heart suddenly jolted.
The Gentleman's Sincere Bamboo stood quietly, not moving an inch.
This meant that no lie had been detected.
Even curses counted as lies, but what this woman had just said... wasn't a lie?
Cold sweat immediately broke out on Deputy Leader Yuwen's back.
Black Earth Immortal Li Heitu waved his hand and said indifferently, "Enough. We have long since transcended the Mortal World; why should we care about such trivial formalities of the Mortal World?"
"I was the one who unlocked the Yunmeng Underground Palace, but I never promised you that I would take you to retrieve the things from beneath the palace."
"Besides, you didn't leave empty-handed, did you?"
"It's just a broken stone; what use is it?!"
As soon as this was mentioned, Tan Zhuyin couldn't suppress his anger.
"This isn't a broken stone, hehe..."
Black Earth Immortal Li Heitu seemed helpless, as if looking at a mischievous Junior squandering treasures: "However, this item is indeed not something you can use, and... it's not the Huanshen Sect's greatest gain from within the underground palace."
Hmm?
Yuwen Cuojin frowned. He glanced at the Gentleman's Sincere Bamboo and found that the other party had not lied.
In other words, Tan Zhuyin had an even greater gain in the underground palace?
Then why didn't he know?
Could it be... that he secretly concealed it, wanting to keep it for himself?!
Yuwen Cuojin looked sharply at Tan Zhuyin.
"I don't know! I really only got this broken stone."
Tan Zhuyin clenched his fists, feeling like a huge scapegoat.
But fortunately, the Gentleman's Sincere Bamboo helped him out, also not growing.
Yuwen Cuojin asked in a deep voice, "He clearly only obtained this stone bead in the underground palace, so why do you say there was a greater gain?"
"I wasn't talking about him, but the Demon Summoning Sect."
Li Mo's eyes were filled with a sense of melancholy, as if recalling distant memories: "Do you know who built the Yunmeng Underground Palace?"
“......”
The Demon Summoning Sect members fell silent.
Yuwen Cuojin also had to shake his head. This period of history was too ancient, and there was no record of it in the sect, nor did he know if it had been erased by someone.
"It was a Demon Summoning Sect Leader who mastered the Dao of Great Dreams, # Nоvеlight # or more accurately, a God Summoning Sect Leader."
"Her name was Qin Yuzhi, and it was she who, with her astonishing talent, built the Yunmeng Underground Palace."
"As for the purpose... hehe, you should know why you went to the Yunmeng Underground Palace."
For the Yunmeng Ancestral God? freёwebnoѵel.com
This thought instantly surfaced in Yuwen Cuojin's mind, simultaneously stirring up a storm.
Whether it was a Legacy or a divine artifact.
In front of the Ancestral God, they were not worth mentioning!
Just as Yuwen Cuojin was filled with doubt and uncertainty.
"At that time, I called out to you, Elder Brother Immortal, why did you not respond to me?"
Luo Yexian asked at this moment.
Old Luo is good, he picked up on that so well. I'll get you another bowl of braised beef noodles later.
Li Mo said dumbfounded, "Naturally, it was for a more important matter."
Looking at the Demon Summoning Sect members who still seemed to understand little, he sighed, seemingly lamenting the ignorance of the Juniors.
"I'll be frank. That day, I went directly to the core of the underground palace and met your Dream God, also known as Yunmeng Xian.
"He revived by borrowing the body of that Huanshen Sect Leader Qin, and that Huanshen Sect Leader Qin is standing right in front of you."
“!!!”
These words were like a sudden clap of thunder, directly exploding in the ears of the Demon Summoning Sect members!
Yuwen Cuojin's scalp tingled.
He remembered something: just now, when this woman cursed them as unworthy descendants, it did not trigger a reaction from the Gentleman's Sincere Bamboo, which meant it was all from the bottom of her heart.
This one, then, is that Huanshen Sect Leader Qin...
To be precise, it's... the Yunmeng Ancestral God?!
"How could the Ancestral God only be in the Controlling Mystery Realm?" Yuwen Cuojin muttered to himself.
"Time erodes the bones of heroes; isn't it normal after such a long period?" Li Mo said expressionlessly.
"Indeed... indeed..."
The clever Deputy Leader Yuwen started to think.
Is there a possibility that collecting the power of sentient beings is for the Ancestral God to recover her strength?
Cold sweat trickled down Yuwen Cuojin's face, no longer displaying his previous arrogance.
He quickly ordered the sect members:
"Put away the bamboo, put away the bamboo!"
Then he respectfully led the way in bowing, proclaiming that they had witnessed the Ancestral God's descent and manifestation.
Qin Yuzhi: "......"
They seemed to have misunderstood something.
And Li Mo hadn't said a single false word.
However, she still cooperated with a cold snort, and dream butterflies flew back from all directions; that was the method she used to send dreams to the people of the Southern Border.
Dream Dao!
This was a Dao that had long been lost in the Demon Summoning Sect, along with the dormancy of the Yunmeng Ancestral God, and now it had reappeared!
At this moment, Yuwen Cuojin's last trace of doubt vanished, and he said excitedly:
"You have descended; why did you not inform us so we could welcome you back to the sect?"
"I am currently working under Black Earth Immortal."
Qin Yuzhi said coldly.
“!!!!”
Luo Yexian looked at Li Mo, his eyes filled with terror and reverence.
Even the Ancestral God works under this Black Earth Immortal?
The Ancestral God is a True Immortal from the Nine Heavens who descended!
Then how terrifyingly colossal must this person and the Myriad Aspects Immortal Sect behind him be?!
Recalling his previous arrogance, and how he even dared to release his Aura towards such an existence, he felt a sense of surviving a disaster, and he was grateful that the Immortal did not hold it against him.
"You, please drink tea."
Yuwen Cuojin quickly offered tea to the big shot.
"You don't mind if I take some of the power of sentient beings?"
Li Mo smiled, but not quite.
"Hehe, what are you saying? We're all family; there's no talk of two families. Besides, all that power of sentient beings has been put to good use."
Yuwen Cuojin felt that the power of sentient beings was for the Yunmeng Ancestral God to recover her strength.
Black Earth Immortal truly put in a lot of effort; he actually set up such a grand scheme.
He really did, I'm so moved I could cry.
As for his own birth, he felt a little ashamed.
"However, what method do you rely on for collecting and spreading your teachings?"
"What era is this? You're still doing traditional proselytizing."
Li Mo smiled faintly, "heavenly venerable brand instant noodles, you deserve to have them!"
.........
Dusk was falling.
A group of Demon Summoning Sect members, who arrived aggressively, left full of gratitude, constantly thanking the Immortal.
Even Tan Zhuyin offered that stone bead; after all, it was useless to him.
And Li Mo, on the other hand, only gave away a recipe for an instant noodle seasoning packet.
Qin Yuzhi watched their retreating figures: "You just gave it to them? Aren't you afraid they'll compete with us for the power of sentient beings then?"
Li Mo tidied up the cooking utensils and said softly, "If the item can truly reach more people, who cares who made it."
"If they remain obstinate, how can a single packet of instant noodles change them? At that time... the eyes of the masses will be sharp."
“......”
Qin Yuzhi was stunned, and suddenly felt that she couldn't quite understand this young man anymore.
Even in today's Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the academies teach about Heaven, Earth, Ruler, Parents, and Teacher, with an orderly hierarchy.
Where did Li Mo learn these strange-sounding but increasingly sensible principles?
Just as she was feeling a bit moved, she heard Li Mo's voice again:
"Sister Qin, let's go to the next stop. I'm rushing back to Autumn Water Pavilion to bathe and enjoy the moon!"
"It's all because these Demon Summoning Sect people interrupted; I'm almost late, damn it!"
“......”
Are you really just enjoying the moon in a proper way?
