Chapter 125 The Unreachable Thirteenth Floor (Please Subscribe, Fourth Update)
"I don't agree. Mu Yan has a life-and-death feud with us. How can we let our enemy be the leader?" Taoist Master Qingfeng said.
Among them, he was the one who had been beaten the worst. Not only was his clothes ragged, but his body was scorched black, as if he had walked out of a refugee slum.
Others nodded in agreement.
At this time, Li Changyun suddenly asked: "What grudge does Mu Yan have against us?"
"The hatred of life and death." Everyone didn't know why Patriarch Changyun asked this, so they answered subconsciously.
"Who died?" Li Changyun asked again.
Everyone, you look at me and I look at you, my mind is full of questions.
Yeah, who died? It seemed like no one died.
"Since no one died, what's the point of revenge?" Li Changyun said.
Everyone was speechless, feeling like they were being led astray by Patriarch Changyun.
Mu Yan went from being a life-and-death enemy to someone who had no grudge against Shushan.
Suddenly, a young man walked out of the crowd and asked doubtfully: "Ancestor, elder... what are you watching here?"
This man is tall, has narrow eyes, and a beard on his lips. He looks bohemian. He is Gu Xiu who has just returned from the world of martial arts!
It turned out that Gu Xiu had just teleported back. When he saw that no one was around, he went out to find out.
Unexpectedly, the direction of the Demon Town Tower was bustling with people, and it was a lively scene, just like a vegetable market, so I rushed over.
When the Great Elder Qingchen told the whole story, Gu Xiu's expression changed: "Mu Yan is my friend. Aren't you guys flooding the Dragon King Temple and attacking your own family?"
Wang Luchun said angrily: "Gu Xiu, you old bastard, you can throw something as important as the Demon Suppression Order to outsiders. This matter is all your fault!"
Gu Xiu said lazily: "Don't I want to attract a genius to our sect? The sixteen-year-old Qingming layman... No, Master Dongxu, this guy is really not a human being."
Li Changyun said: "Stop arguing, Gu Xiu, what do you think of Mu Yan?"
Gu Xiu pondered for a moment, and said while thinking: "Incomparably treacherous, ruthless, and loves money as much as his life..."
These words popped up one after another, and everyone started to jump with fear.
Li Changyun even coughed hastily.
Only then did Gu Xiu stop and smiled awkwardly: "However, he is a very loyal person and he is true to his word. He is a friend worth making deep friends with. I almost died at the beginning, but I was saved by Mu Yan, so I put Zhen Yao Leave the order to him..."
"Okay, okay!" Li Changyun hurriedly interrupted, fearing that Gu Xiu would say something earth-shattering again: "It's enough to talk about loyalty. For us martial artists, righteousness is our top priority. I think this Mu Yan is fully qualified to be the leader of Shushan."
As soon as these words came out, Patriarch Changyun basically recognized Mu Yan.
The rest of the people looked at each other, Taoist Master Qingchen took a step forward, cupped his hands and said: "Now that our ancestors have left seclusion, we will ask our ancestors to take charge of all matters in Shushan from now on."
Li Changyun waved his hand: "Put him down. I finally retired and don't have enough energy to take care of this business."
Qingwei and Qingfeng also said: "Please ask the ancestor to take charge of the sect."
"Let me tell you, a nursing home at the foot of the mountain is very well built. If you keep forcing me, I will live in a nursing home. I heard that the old lady there loves to dance. If I'm lucky, I can still find a wife." Li Changyun said this Those words made everyone stunned.
…
Mu Yan walked up the dark stone steps, which was extremely long. He didn't know how long he walked until he finally saw a bright light in front of him.
"We finally reached the last floor." Mu Yan continued to move forward.
This is the same hall as before.
However, the next moment, Mu Yan had doubts in his eyes.
Isn’t this hall too identical?
In the center of the hall, there is a deep pit blasted by the liger orcs, which is very eye-catching.
"What's going on?" Mu Yan rubbed his eyes and walked forward.
He stopped in front of the pit and looked carefully.
Isn't this remaining energy aura left behind after the battle with the liger orcs? ,
At that moment, Mu Yan was very sure that he had not reached the thirteenth floor at all, but had returned to the twelfth floor!
What happened? Why did you come around again?
Mu Yan looked at the stone steps deep in the hall with a solemn expression.
"Did something suddenly change while walking on the stone steps that caused me to return to the twelfth floor?"
Mu Yan thought about it, but couldn't figure it out.
He is a man of action and immediately decided to do it again!
…
Outside the Demon Suppression Tower.
The runes outside the thirteenth floor suddenly went out.
Many people are puzzled.
"Did Mu Yan fail to break through?" Wang Luchun was very excited.
Li Changyun said in a serious tone: "If he does not get the inheritance, then he will not be the leader. We must abide by the rules set by our ancestors."
After a while, the runes outside the thirteenth floor lit up again.
Gu Xiu laughed loudly: "Haha, it seems that Mu Yan has hope of success."
After a while, the rune disappeared again.
Gu Xiu's face darkened and he was speechless.
It was Wang Luchun's turn to burst into laughter: "I knew he would fail..."
Then, the runes lit up again.
Wang Luchun's smile immediately froze on his face.
Gu Xiu asked: "It lights up and goes out sometimes. Is the light bulb going to deflate?"
The elders were very embarrassed: "Maybe it's in disrepair."
…
Mu Yan was exhausted, lying at the door of the hall on the twelfth floor, saying she didn't want to leave.
Physical strength is secondary, the main thing is mental fatigue.
The road is clearly in front of us, but no matter how we go, we will always end up back where we were.
Another person would have collapsed.
With a move of his right hand, a beam of light fell to the ground.
After the light dissipated, a cute little girl appeared on the spot, with long antennae, small thin wings, and a bee belly trailing behind her. It was the bee queen Xiaoli.
It seemed that she hadn't come out to breathe fresh air for a long time. Xiaoli stared at Mu Yan with watery eyes and looked at Mu Yan with great resentment.
Mu Yan smiled coquettishly: "My strength has improved too quickly recently, and it's getting more and more difficult to play double queue with you."
Xiaoli's big eyes immediately filled with mist.
Mu Yan was speechless: "I will improve your food someday and make you stronger."
Xiaoli nodded with satisfaction.
This time, Mu Yan took a break and asked Xiao Li to walk along the stone steps.
Xiaoli seemed to want to express herself in front of her master, so she exerted all her energy, flapped her wings desperately, and flew up with a whoosh.
Mu Yan sighed. Although he knew the outcome, he still had some small expectations.
He sat at the entrance of the twelfth floor, recuperating and recuperating.
Suddenly, I felt someone tap me on my shoulder.
Mu Yan turned around and saw Xiaoli appearing behind her, and was immediately startled.
This is too fast.
Although he knew he would return to the same place, Mu Yan was still shocked to see Xiaoli appear from the stone steps at the entrance.
There was still excitement on Xiaoli's face, as if she was saying: "Master, I have found you again."
Mu Yan was speechless.
He finally understood why no one had received the inheritance for thousands of years.
If you can't even get up, do you rely on your thoughts to get the inheritance?
