Who knew that this person was actually Guan Yue? Guan Yue quietly said to Mu Wei, "Brother, I have a secret to tell you before I leave."
Mu Wei was also curious and immediately leaned closer, stretching his neck to hear what Guan Yue had to say. To maintain his dignity, he pretended to be nonchalant and said, "What secret could you possibly have? Maybe I already know."
"You know that our Mu Family has a place even more secretive than this? The Holy Alliance—" As soon as Guan Yue mentioned the Holy Alliance, Mu Wei's brows furrowed, as if he was about to shout something.
Guan Yue had already been closely observing Mu Wei's expression. When he noticed Mu Wei's brows tighten, Guan Yue struck with lightning speed, unleashing all his power and simultaneously using Ultimate Light to knock Mu Wei down with a single palm strike. He then quickly flipped over and struck him again, thoroughly incapacitating him before tossing him into the nearby bushes.
Then he urged the young man to hurry home.
Guan Yue knew that Mu Wei wouldn't regain consciousness anytime soon. So he disguised himself to look like Mu Wei and directly walked into the courtyard.
Once inside the courtyard, guided by the Azure Dragon Yin-Yang Sword Spirit, Guan Yue headed straight for the highest ancestral hall of the Mu Family.
However, suddenly, an intense alarm rang out above the entire Mu Family Courtyard. The alarm sounded a long tone followed by three short ones, very rhythmic.
Many disciples were startled; this alarm indicated that there was danger in the Mu Family's A1 courtyard—an external enemy was attacking!
It turned out that Mu Wei had been carrying a Heart Protection Mirror, which could protect his heart from fatal injuries. When Guan Yue attacked him earlier, he targeted his heart, so he did not achieve his intended goal.
Shortly after Guan Yue entered the small courtyard, Mu Wei regained consciousness. However, his limbs had already been broken by Guan Yue's attack, so he could only endure the pain and forcefully trigger the emergency alarm signal.
Upon hearing Mu Wei's alarm signal, the higher-ups of the Mu Family immediately sprang into action. They treated it as a grave threat and went on high alert.
The A1 courtyard of the Mu Family had never been attacked by outsiders before; this was the first time. With Wood Old Ghost absent, the higher-ups of the Mu Family naturally felt even more anxious.
As soon as Guan Yue heard the loud alarm, he realized that he had mishandled things and allowed Mu Wei to wake up. Had he known earlier, he would have ended Mu Wei's life. But it was too late for regrets now.
Guan Yue quickly found a secluded spot to change his appearance again. He knew that his situation was extremely dangerous. He needed to capture another disciple to transform into their likeness for greater safety.
He moved specifically in the shadows, searching for individuals walking alone.
At this moment, experts from the Mu Family arrived in droves at the A1 courtyard, beginning a large-scale search. Guan Yue quickly ran to a pond, submerged himself underwater, and then activated the Concealment Technique that Baldin had passed on to him. This was a technique that Guan Yue had never tried before and needed continuous practice to master.
However, at such a time, regardless of its effectiveness, he had to give it a try.
The formation of the Mu Family was swiftly activated, employing the highest security specifications already in motion. As the Mu Family would say, even a bird flying by must be identified as male or female.
The patriarch of the Mu Family is named Mu Ying. He is a peak disciple of the Eternal Realm and has no hope of breaking through to become a Little Ancestor Saint. However, with his intelligence and wisdom, he has served as the head of the Mu Family for five hundred years.
He has always adhered to the principle of not interfering in worldly affairs or seeking dominance among empires, which has allowed the Mu Family to develop steadily.
Thanks to his steadiness and perseverance, the Mu Family has been able to avoid many worldly disputes and disturbances. Solid as a rock, it has stood for a century.
Moreover, due to the Mu Family's formation having the ability to deceive heaven and earth, it has also become the headquarters of the Holy Spirit Alliance in Yongning Continent. Consequently, Wood Old Ghost naturally became the leader of the Holy Spirit Alliance.
The Holy Spirit Alliance consists of twenty-eight members. They are all Great Powers and disciples above Little Ancestor Saint who are unwilling to enter Upper Space. Among them are eight Great Deities! This represents the greatest combat power accumulation in Yongning Continent.
The Angered Heaven faction is completely unaware of the existence of the Holy Spirit Alliance because they adhere to the rules of heaven as enforcers, while the Holy Spirit Alliance opposes those rules. They are two completely different factions with opposing ideologies.
However, after entering Upper Space, none from Angered Heaven have achieved any notable success; all have struggled greatly, further solidifying the Holy Spirit Alliance's resolve not to enter Upper Space.
This alliance has existed for tens of thousands of years. It only recently moved to the Mu Family because it allows them to operate on the surface without being detected by heaven. Previously, they had lived five thousand meters underground.
They also need women, but women are unwilling to go to that dreadful place to accompany them; thus, they resorted to Millennium's Last Love!
After tens of thousands of years underground, a massive city called Holy City even emerged!
Now that the Holy Spirit Alliance has established its headquarters at the Mu Family, those Holy Seers have come to the surface while occasionally returning to Holy City. They did not bring their families out because they feared being discovered by heaven.
Previously, the transaction made by Mokqian and Lu Fang was aimed at establishing contact with Lu Fang and others to grasp the movements of the Heavenly Court and decide their course of action.
However, after contacting Lu Fang and his group, the Holy Spirit Alliance was also on edge, fearing that they might be schemed against by Lu Fang and his associates.
When Guan Yue entered the A1 courtyard, they assumed that Lu Fang's group had infiltrated, so they immediately decided to capture them with full force, leaving no room for future troubles.
Mu Ying sat in the Council Chamber, assigning tasks to the family members when suddenly a young old man stepped forward. Mu Ying quickly stood up and said, "Sage Ancestor, please give your orders."
The young old man was not polite; he sat down in the middle and immediately said, "I just went to check, and it seems Mu Wei has been ambushed. It appears that the intruder is quite skilled, so everyone must be cautious. Therefore, search teams must consist of three or more members and cannot operate alone. Currently, we do not know the intruder's purpose, so all areas must enhance security, especially the passages leading into A2, A3, and A4 must be thoroughly inspected to prevent outsiders from infiltrating. This is of utmost importance."
Mu Ying quickly expressed that he would execute this immediately.
The young old man continued, "Additionally, we need to send people to observe outside the formation to see if there are any insiders collaborating with outsiders. If anyone makes a move outside, they must be eliminated without mercy. This is a time of turmoil; the spatial barriers are becoming thinner, and the Heavenly Court may soon send down a large number of people."
With a long sigh, the young old man slowly stood up and left.
Mu Ying resumed his position at the center and then said, "Everyone present knows Sage Ancestor's request; quickly relay this order and execute it immediately without error."
Mu Ying then turned to a young girl sitting nearby and said, "Dream Butterfly, there have been no reports from all around; we cannot investigate the outsiders. Old Man is a bit anxious. Please take your Bird out to see if you can find any clues; it would help your uncle."
Dream Butterfly immediately stood up and said, "My father sent me here to await Uncle Mu's instructions. Dream Butterfly will go out now to see if I can find any clues about the enemy."
Dream Butterfly is sixteen years old and has cultivation from Wonderland. Her Great-Grandfather is a Great Deity. She has a natural ability to communicate with spirit beasts and possesses skills in controlling them. Notably, she has a Bird that understands her words and is adept at transformation—more powerful than even divine beasts in terms of transformation abilities.
At the same time, Dream Butterfly is naturally sensitive to human presence; she is also an expert tracker. Compared to other Human Cultivators, she is much stronger.
Recently she arrived at the Mu Family and has helped Mu Ying solve several difficult cases, earning his respect. Therefore, he often lets her sit beside him as a sign of respect.
Having passed such a long time without any leads on the intruder's situation made Mu Ying restless. He began to feel anxious.
Guan Yue was currently familiarizing himself with the Concealment Technique. Just a moment ago, two groups of people had detected his presence and reached the edge of the Pond, but Guan Yue narrowly avoided them. After two evasions, Guan Yue had already learned the optimal threshold for this method.
Since mastering this threshold, no one had been able to sense his presence. Although Guan Yue could sense many people running around, searching everywhere, he remained carefree in the Pond.
The Concealment Technique was indeed impressive. Baldin, I will definitely fulfill your request.
With nothing to do underwater, Guan Yue took out the Wind Thunder Cauldron and began to play with it thoughtfully.
He believed that this Wind Thunder Cauldron must possess immense power; otherwise, the Sea God wouldn’t have entrusted him with such a significant task. If he could figure out the function of this cauldron now, it might even come in handy in an emergency.
Dream Butterfly wandered around in the A-shaped courtyard, while a pink Bird soared above her head, never straying too far away. It chirped softly as if conversing with Dream Butterfly.
This Bird, empowered by the Great Deity, now functioned like a holographic detector. One of its abilities was to detect any life signs, even that of a mosquito. Moreover, it could relay any information it gathered back to Dream Butterfly at any time.
Dream Butterfly walked aimlessly without any particular goal, simply hoping for luck. If she encountered an enemy assassin, she had her own means to deal with them. When she reached the edge of the Pond, the Bird surprisingly informed her that there was someone inside!
Dream Butterfly was startled. She sensed around and found no trace of anyone. However, she did not doubt the Bird's sensing ability because there had been instances in the past where she failed to locate a suspect while the Bird did.
So she ran to inform Wood Ying Clan Leader.
In the A-shaped courtyard, there had been no news of outsiders, and Mu Ying was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. Therefore, when Dream Butterfly mentioned this matter, Mu Ying immediately believed her. In his Consciousness, the suspect could only be hiding at the bottom of the water. He quickly led Master to surround the Pond.
