Chapter 2420
"Hehe... You really want to compare yourself to the sect leader, don't you? Brother, you think too highly of yourself."
"No way, don't talk nonsense!"
Everyone was quite relaxed along the way.
Wu Mingyao stood by Lin Xuan's side, and the once high and mighty Nineteenth Princess now felt like a maid, a rather strange feeling.
As time went by, the group reached the frozen lake and collected more than a hundred Moon Silver Flowers.
What followed was the same as what Lin Xuan and the others did in the Eastern Sun and Moon Valley: they threw the Moon Silver Flower into the crimson lake water, causing it to bloom and nurture Yang attribute power.
With everything prepared, Lin Xuan continued to protect Wu Mingyao and her group with his Sun and Moon Domain, leading them directly to the last barrier of fog.
"Sect Master, actually we were marked by Wu Zhao Mountain before we entered. Only four of us can plant trees and receive flowers, the rest of us cannot."
Wu Mingyao was digging a hole to plant the Sunfire Tree, while explaining to Lin Xuan.
Of course, Lin Xuan also picked up on another meaning: "You mean that Wu Mingquan can only be suppressed, not directly defeated. Although the Empress and Prince Yan said that as long as traces of rebellion are left, it will be fine, but it will have to wait until he arrives at the Sun and Moon Temple."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Wu Mingyao nodded; she could roughly guess Lin Xuanyu's purpose in traveling the Dao.
"Understood!"
Lin Xuan nodded slightly.
Wu Mingyao said no more and began planting trees, then grafting flowers onto trees, letting the fiery trees and silver flowers bloom, the path extending from the depths of the fog.
The group quickly set off and arrived at the southern square of the Sun and Moon Temple.
The area around the Temple of the Sun and Moon was still shrouded in thick fog, and Lin Xuan could not see the scene at the Eastern Square from here.
He didn't hesitate and prepared to leave after saying goodbye to Wu Mingyao.
But Wu Mingyao called out to him.
"Sect Master, I'll go with you!"
Wu Mingyao looked at Lin Xuan with a determined gaze.
"The Empress said that the Sun and Moon Divine Dynasty will not bear the consequences of this incident."
Lin Xuan stated frankly that he did not want Wu Mingyao to get involved.
However, Wu Mingyao shook her head: "I know the sect leader's thoughts, but if all these people are killed at Wuzhao Mountain, the top sects will not know about it."
Lin Xuan's gaze sharpened as he scrutinized Wu Mingyao: "You think you can kill even the people from the Sun Moon Divine Dynasty?"
In Lin Xuan's view, Wu Mingyao was not that kind of person.
As expected, Wu Mingyao shook her head directly: "Sect Master, the people of the Sun Moon Divine Dynasty will naturally not kill them, but please believe me, they will not say anything, otherwise they will all be sinners of the Divine Dynasty for all time."
A fierce glint flashed in Wu Mingyao's eyes, and Lin Xuan couldn't help but glance at her sideways.
"Just as the Empress said, you already have the qualities of an emperor."
Wu Mingyao possesses decisiveness and ruthlessness, along with an absolute confidence that most people lack.
"Sect Master is too kind!"
"Mingyao just wanted to share the sect leader's burdens and lay a solid foundation for herself."
“What Her Majesty the Empress Dowager could not do, Mingyao may be able to do. No, not perhaps, but definitely. For this, Mingyao has worked hard for countless years.”
For some reason, Lin Xuan saw a sense of 'vicissitude' in Wu Mingyao at this moment.
"You really are different!"
Lin Xuan couldn't help but sigh.
"Alright, then you can come with me. But remember, don't steal kills. Cripple them and let me finish them off."
“Mingyao understands!” Wu Mingyao immediately replied, her eyes filled with joy.
She was a smart woman, and although she had some speculations about Lin Xuan's 'bloodthirstiness,' she made no attempt to inquire.
After making arrangements for the prodigies of the various aristocratic families, Lin Xuan and Wu Mingyao traveled directly along the Dao Path, venturing deep into the dense fog.
At this moment, in the Sun and Moon Valley to the west of Wuzhao Mountain, pure sunlight shone brightly, sword intent surged, and the entire cold Sun and Moon Valley became somewhat scorching.
The Yin-attribute power here was completely suppressed and could not have any effect on Wu Mingkong and the others.
"Speed up the pace. We still need dozens of Moon Silver Flowers. Get them all moving."
A majestic voice echoed through Sun and Moon Valley, and Wu Mingkong and Kong Fang looked up at the sky.
Above, a figure disregarded the rules of the place, hovering on a sword, its body radiating an exceptionally intense pure yang light.
"Senior Brother Feng Changjian is too radical, which is inconsistent with my Confucianism and Taoism."
Kong Fang's mind was shaken as he spoke with Wu Mingkong.
After entering the western part of Wuzhao Mountain, the group had plenty of free time.
Nothing more than Feng Changjian slashed out his Pure Yang clone to follow them into the Sun and Moon Plains. He practically single-handedly swept through the plains and has now entered the Sun and Moon Valley, where he has picked most of the hundred Moon Silver Flowers.
"I've also heard about Senior Brother Feng Changjian and Young Master Lin Xuan's affair; it's no exaggeration to say it's a blood feud."
"But...we've actually gotten involved in this, it's really...difficult!"
Wu Mingkong sighed again, his gaze focusing on the longsword at Feng Changjian's feet.
No, it wasn't a complete sword, but a hilt; the blade was formed from pure Yang energy.
A terrifying aura flowed from the sword hilt, defying the rules of Wuzhao Mountain, which gave the Wind Sword the ability to fly; otherwise, this place would be absolutely forbidden from flying.
“Your Highness, it’s time to make a decision. You have been too indecisive all these years and have no chance of becoming the heir apparent. It’s time to choose a side.”
"Senior Brother Feng Changjian brought the damaged Imperial Weapon, the Pure Yang Sword, which shows how much he values and is wary of Young Master Lin Xuan."
As Kong Fang spoke, he observed Wu Mingkong's expression, noticing that his eyes flickered and his expression was quite interesting.
Kong Fang sighed inwardly, feeling helpless. This man was too cautious; he possessed extraordinary talent but lacked unparalleled ability.
In the end, Kong Fang had no choice but to continue, saying, "Your Highness, even if you choose not to take sides, please do not be hostile to either side."
Wu Mingkong remained silent for a while, then nodded gently: "I understand."
Kong Fang shook his head and said no more.
"Ok?"
Just then, Feng Changjian suddenly focused his mind, his gaze piercing through space and projecting towards the direction of the Sun and Moon Temple.
He could vaguely see two figures traveling through the surging, misty fog, one of whom was none other than Lin Xuan, whom he had been longing for.
"They actually... came..."
Feng Changjian trembled slightly, his pure Yang light surged, and he was more excited than ever before...
