3581 What Happened?
Xuanyuan Mo Ze’s lips curved up. “You know our whereabouts quite well.”
“I already know what you’re going to do,” Mo Chen said as he stood up and brushed off his robe. His calm gaze met theirs, “Skylink Monarch’s strength may be comparable to yours, but he has been a Monarch-level Strong Exponent for years. Dealing with him won’t be easy.”
He paused and walked slowly towards them with one hand behind his back. “What’s more, it’s not Skylink Monarch who is the most troublesome, it’s the master of the Black Lotus. His Black Lotus has the power to destroy the world. Have you forgotten that you could barely handle even a trace of the black lotus energy inside your body? I think you’ve been too careless getting here so quickly.” He shook his head and sighed.
“Mo Chen, you’re overthinking it,” Feng Jiu chuckled. “We actually don’t plan to act; we just want to probe their strength. We’re aware of the risks you mentioned. If we were to take action, we wouldn’t be so careless.”
She took Xuanyuan Mo Ze to a big rock to sit down and then took out a few spirit fruits from her space. She handed two to Xuanyuan Mo Ze and two more to Mo Chen, “Try these spirit fruits; I got them recently.”
The bright red of the fruits stood out against her fair and delicate hands. His gaze couldn’t help but flicker for a moment. He lowered his eyes and reached out to take it. “Thank you.”
Feng Jiu took a bite of the fruit and said, “We originally planned to investigate tonight.
We didn’t expect you to be here. Do you want to come with us?”
As she spoke, she sighed inwardly. She didn’t intend to let Mo Chen know that they came to this place. She tried to keep him out of it so he wouldn’t be implicated, but he had followed them anyway. It seemed she couldn’t stop him no matter what.
The three sat by the waterfall, chatting and discussing how to deal with the master of the black lotus and Skylink Monarch. Time passed quickly.
As night fell, they looked at each other. Finally, Mo Chen said, “I heard they’ve also enlisted the Demon Lord to deal with you. I have no idea if they were able to recruit him. Let’s test how strong they really are tonight. If a fight does start, it’s best to end it quickly.”
“Don’t worry! We’re aware. After all, prolonged fighting here would be disadvantageous for us,” Feng Jiu nodded, turning to look at Xuanyuan Mo Ze.
Xuanyuan Mo Ze looked back at her and concealed his aura. Then he glanced at Mo Chen, “Are you planning to go in that white robe?”
A white robe would stand out in the darkness. Was he planning to walk in openly?
Mo Chen paused, looked down at his robe, and smiled. “This is easily solved.” As he spoke, he took a black cloak from his space and draped it over himself, covering his white robe.
“This should do,” he smiled gently at Feng Jiu.
Feng Jiu nodded. “This is fine.” As soon as she finished speaking, Xuanyuan Mo Ze grabbed her hand and they soared upwards. She turned back to look at him, perplexed. She saw his face was serious, his lips tightly pressed together, definitely unhappy.
“What’s wrong?” She asked, coming closer to him in confusion.
“It’s nothing.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze replied. Although he said so, his facial expression remained visibly displeased.
