Divine Phoenix Island, back mountains, Vermillion Bird Palace –
The Third Elder of Divine Phoenix Island, Mu Yanzhuo, walked out of Vermillion Bird Palace, pouting.
"Third Elder!"
The pair of servants outside Vermillion Bird Palace bowed to Mu Yanzhuo.
Mu Yanzhuo only gave a light humph, not bothering to reply. As he stepped 100 feet from the entrance of the main hall, Mu Yanzhuo waved his sleeve and then flew away.
Although there was no rule stating that one could not fly in the front field of Vermilion Bird Palace, Vermillion Bird Palace was still Mu Yuhuang's palace, after all, and also where the supreme power of the Vermillion Bird Faction was located. A normal person would only fly outside the square and then walk, but Mu Yanzhuo no longer cared to pay attention to manners or rules. The conversation he had with Mu Yuhuang just a moment ago had made him extremely unhappy.
The Saintess engagement ceremony he proposed had been pushed back by Mu Yuhuang. He had found some random reason to reject it, and now it was extended indefinitely!
Hu!
A voice transmission talisman lit up in front of Mu Yanzhuo; the one who contacted him was Great Elder Mu Chihuo.
Mu Yanzhuo frowned. His relationship with the average Great Elder. There were many complicated power struggles within the complicated internal stages of Divine Phoenix Island. Mu Yanzhuo was the Third Elder, and represented a faction. As for Mu Chihuo, he also represented another faction.
Between these two large factions, there were many places where they naturally fought. This had caused the relationship between Mu Yanzhuo and Mu Chihuo to be discordant – this was inevitable.
Mu Yanzhuo hesitated and then flew to Fire Soul Palace where the Great Elder was waiting.
“Haha, Brother Yanzhuo, it has been a long time since we met each other like this. How's it going? ”Beyond Fire Soul Palace, Mu Chihuo was wearing a long red robe as he waited there with a smile on his face.
"I thank Brother Chihuo for your concern. I am fine . '' Mu Yanzhuo landed lightly and then cupped her hands together as a greeting.
"okay? How good, I'm afraid you're not good at all! ”Great Elder's words with a faint smile.
Mu Yanzhuo frowned, not denying anything.
“Brother Yanzhuo, I know you have worked very hard for Qingshu's wedding. But if I can speak frankly, Brother Yanzhuo should forget about this. It seemed that Mu Yuhuang had decided to ask Mu Qianyu to marry Lin Ming. Not only that, but seeing how close Mu Qianyu and Lin Ming were, the two of them were likely willing to agree to this marriage. It seems that Qingshu will have to make other plans in the future! "
Mu Chihuo's words were harsh. Mu Yanzhuo was very pouting. He already knew this, but he still had difficulty accepting this truth.
Mu Chihuo smiled and said, "Brother Yanzhuo is a reasonable man. Previously, there had indeed been some unpleasant problems between us, but in the end, we were both surnamed Mu. In the past 3000 years of Divine Phoenix Island, there were many disciples with different last names who had joined, but in the end they were not Elders with the same surname. I fear that in the future, Lin Ming will continue to advance and will become an Elder! Lin Ming's status became increasingly important. In the future, if he were to marry Mu Qianyu, he might even become the Divine Phoenix Island Master. ”
Mu Yanzhuo said, “In these past 3000 years, there has never been someone whose last name was not Mu who became Island Master. This was basically no different from handing over Divine Phoenix Island to another. The Council of Elders would never agree to this; who could guarantee that outsiders would not hide malicious intent? "
Divine Phoenix Island was a sect, but actually they took on a very important bloodline legacy. Most of those on the island had the surname Mu, and it was very similar to the family clan.
The family clan would never hand over the position of the head of the family to an outsider. Therefore, the Phoenix Island God Elder would also not accept someone with a different last name to be an Island Master.
“Hehe, that's not necessarily true. Mu Fengxian liked this Lin Ming very much, and Mu Yuhuang also placed a lot of trust in him. Not only that, but Lin Ming's potential was too frightening Brother Yanzhuo might not know, either, but this time Lin Ming forced his way into the Acacia Faction of the Seven Profound Valleys and fought the seven or eight Elders of the Acacia Faction alone. He even defeated the extreme Xiantian Acacia Faction Sovereign! ”
"What !?" Mu Yanzhuo's complexion immediately changed. "You said that late Houtian realm Lin Ming defeated an extreme Xiantian master !?"
"Yes! This was a level of talent that only the Emperor powerhouses in the future possessed. So, that is why I said that Lin Ming will become the Divine Island Master of Phoenix Island in the future. Even controlling all of Divine Phoenix Island was not impossible. At that time, we really won't have anywhere to go! "
Mu Yanzhuo's skin was extremely bad. He gritted his teeth, "If that's the case, then this old man has nothing to say. Lin Ming's ascension was simply unstoppable. I will try to advise Qingshu to let go of this engagement and focus on cultivating. If his talent was inferior to others, then he could do nothing but accept this fate! Although in the future I will be under the control of others and my influence will slowly decline, I can still endure. It was much better than being destroyed! I urge Brother Chihuo to also not bother with Lin Ming! Such characters would become extremely frightening once they grew up in the future! If anyone offended him, their death would be extremely miserable! "
Mu Chihuo disdainfully said, "Brother Yanzhuo, why are you trying to protect yourself? We offended him! ”
"Huh, only Brother Chihuo has offended him. Brother Chihuo is like water and fire with Island Master Yuhuang. I, Mu Yanzhuo, do not have the courage to fight for authority with others. I'm fine with bowing to others. Big brother Chihuo better not try to take me down as well! ”
"Hehe," Mu Chihuo suddenly sneered, "Brother Yanzhuo is too naive. Did Brother Yanzhuo know why Lin Ming killed his way to the Seven Profound Valley Acacia Faction? ”
Mu Yanzhuo was silent. He gave a little light and then did not answer. He did not know the circumstances between Lin Ming and Ouyang Boyan. To Divine Phoenix Island, little things like this that happened in the Sky Fortune Kingdom were no different from small ant battles. It was not enough to arouse the interest of Divine Phoenix Island, not to mention Divine Phoenix Island was already preoccupied with the chaos caused by the war they were in.
"And? Continues to?"
“Hehe, it seems like Brother Yanzhuo really does not know. Brother Yanzhuo, think for a moment. If Lin Ming's family and friends were forced to the brink of death, why didn't they ask for help from Divine Phoenix Island? After all, they knew that Lin Ming and Mu Qianyu were friends. However, the unfortunate thing was that Mu Qianyu was with your grandson Mu Qingshu. Then, for unknown reasons, your grandson decided to burn the letter sent to Mu Qianyu. In fact, he burned many letters, not giving them to Mu Qianyu. After which, this almost caused that girl who had an intimate relationship with Lin Ming to die on the battlefield. ”
As Mu Chihuo slowly spoke, Mu Yanzhuo's expression did not change at all. Mu Chihuo would not lie about something like this, and there was a very high possibility this was true. Mu Chihuo was aware of what kind of personality Mu Qingshu had, and it was likely that he would do something like this.
Mu Yanzhuo's brows rose. He glared at the Great Elder, and then coldly said, "You have someone spying on my arrangements?"
If this Great Elder had not hidden a spy within his own people, then he would have never known such a trivial matter.
“Haha, Brother Yanzhuo shouldn't speak rudely. It was best to spend this time thinking about how to deal with Lin Ming's anger. This Lin Ming is a person who will definitely take revenge for all the grudges he has; we only need to look at the miserable state of the Acacia Faction to find out. After Lin Ming returned to Divine Phoenix Island, he would definitely investigate the matter and try to trace back the clues. In the past, your grandson thought that Lin Ming had died, so he was very relaxed in his actions and was not clean in erasing his tracks. If Lin Ming investigated the matter, it would not be difficult to find out who that person was. With Lin Ming's current abilities, he wouldn't be able to harm Qingshu. But in the future, after Lin Ming reached the Revolving Core realm, would Brother Yanzhuo still be able to protect Qingshu? At that time, maybe Qingshu … "
As Mu Chihuo spoke, he began to shake his head. Mu Yanzhuo grimaced. Mu Qingshu was his most outstanding bloodline character. If there were no accidents, he would become an Elder in the future and take over his position.
The position of the Elder is very important. If a faction did not have an Elder, they would not have any strength in the upper echelons of the sect. The result is that they will slowly wither, and eventually disappear.
If this was a normal conflict, Mu Yanzhuo would apologize. But in that case, even if it was Mu Yanzhuo who had done that, Lin Ming would probably not forget it!
Mu Yanzhuo's expression changed several times. Finally, he asked with a true essence sound transmission, "Does Brother Chihuo have a plan?" even if he were to join Mu Chihuo.
“Brother Yanzhuo, no need to worry. There is always a way . Brother Yanzhuo, how about we return to my Fire Soul Palace and then slowly discuss the matter? ”
Mu Yanzhuo nodded. He has no other choice.
………………………. .
On an island 1000 miles from Divine Phoenix Island, craggy coral reefs and waves hit the shore.
A group of Divine Phoenix Island disciples were on a routine patrol. Just before noon, the Xiantian leader of this army suddenly saw a bright flame in the distant sky. Her eyesight was incredible, so she was the first to see that it was Vermillion Bird!
And also the grown-up Vermillion Bird!
Divine Phoenix Island only had a few mature Vermillion Birds. Those who could ride the Vermillion Bird to travel were most likely Elders.
The disciple immediately turned on the sound transmission talisman.
…………………. .
In the middle of the small island, in an elegant small building, Mu Qianyu was watering flowers.
These past few days, Mu Qianyu was in a very good mood. When he had time to spare, he would plant some flowers and plants.
Mu Qingshu stood in the courtyard, silently staring at the flowers that Mu Qianyu had doused.
Today, Mu Qianyu's attitude towards him was much better than before. But this sudden change in attitude did not make Mu Qingshu happy.
Because Mu Qingshu knew that Lin Ming was still alive, he had extremely poor skin. It was not that Lin Ming was still alive, but because his cultivation had reached the Houtian realm.
A 17-year-old child with a late Houtian cultivar cultivation had surpassed Mu Qianyu when she was at this age.
This caused Mu Qingshu to feel a deep crisis. If this speed continued, then perhaps in a few years, Lin Ming's strength would exceed his.
When that time comes, he will not have the slightest advantage.
The next few years were his last chance.
Mu Qingshu had already asked his grandfather to make a last resort. Although the chances were not great, he still had a glimmer of hope. It was because he had a great advantage over Lin Ming, and that was his last name was Mu.
At this moment, a flame suddenly shone in front of Mu Qingshu.
"mm? Some people came here with Vermillion Bird? "
