Chapter 101 What is the grudge between Fairy Baihua and Chen Xuanmo?
……

Chen Xuanmo had imagined many times the scene of himself meeting Zhong Liye again.

But I never expected to meet this ungrateful boy in such an occasion!
As Zhong Liye suddenly took action, the scene suddenly fell into chaos.

Lei Ze from Zixiao Peak also reacted very quickly. He quickly raised his hand and shot the purple lightning sword in his hand towards the fire. At the same time, his body flashed and turned into a flash of lightning and fled in another direction.

"Senior Sister Zijing, I will lead him away. You should run as far as possible."

"Humph!"

A cold snort sounded, and Zhong Liye's voice suddenly rang in Chen Ningzhuo's ears: "You are responsible for entanglement with the purple bud witch, and I will go to capture the traitor of Zixiao Peak."

After saying that, the cave where the two were hiding suddenly exploded. Amidst the flying debris, Zhongli Ye turned into a beam of fire and chased after Lei Ze.

"Bastard!"

Chen Xuanmo started cursing when he saw this.

Such a good hidden observation point, and you, Zhongli Ye, just blew it up. Was it easy for me to develop an observation point back then?
However, Chen Xuanmo also knew that Zhong Liye was deliberately destroying evidence in order to deal with the situation that would follow.

Such a sudden change also frightened Senior Sister Zijing, but when she saw that the powerful enemy was led away by Lei Ze, she did not dare to stay any longer. She gritted her teeth and prepared to use her escape technique to escape from Baihua Valley and Yunyang Sect.

Unexpectedly.

She had just circulated half of her true energy and hadn't yet used her escape technique when a dark yellow light blocked her way. Without saying a word, he sent a dark yellow ruler towards her head.

Undoubtedly, it was Chen Ningzhuo who took action.

As an inner sect disciple of Chiyang Peak, he naturally recognized the [Crimson Sun True Fire] at the first moment. At the same time, he also realized that the wretched disciple of the Weapon Refining Hall who was hiding with him to watch the show was actually his own acting peak master!

Even if his boss gave the order, Chen Ningzhuo would not dare to disobey even if he had the guts, so he would naturally try his best to entangle the Bauhinia witch.

What's more, this Bauhinia witch is a spy of the sect, and is exactly the target that the Chen family wants to find out. No matter from which perspective, she must not be allowed to escape.

Chen Ningzhuo's sudden appearance naturally scared the Bauhinia Demon Girl.

However, the actual age of this witch is probably older than Chen Ningtai. Her cultivation has reached the fifth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage. Her mentality is also unmatched. Even when faced with a hasty battle, she remains calm and composed.

The true energy in her body circulated rapidly, and she instantly used the escape technique to avoid Chen Ningzhuo's Xuanhuang ruler. Then she raised her hand, made a gesture, and cast a wood magic.

A large number of thorny brambles suddenly grew wildly out of the soil and tightly entangled Chen Ningzhuo.

Chen Ningzhuo's cultivation was only at the peak of the second level of the Foundation Establishment Stage. Even though he was wearing an Earth Spirit Shield, he was still entangled by the terrifying barbed brambles and was unable to escape for a while.

The Bauhinia Demon Girl did not dare to continue fighting and immediately prepared to take the opportunity to escape.

Suddenly.

A "buzzing" sound of a sword rang in her ears.

Her heart tightened and she quickly used Baihua Valley's signature escape technique [Dance of Butterflies and Shadows] to dodge, but her hair had already been cut off and scattered like a waterfall.

As the purple energy gradually invaded, the Xuan Mo spirit sword had undergone a transformation and was upgraded to a small level. Its sharpness and explosive power had both been improved. If Chen Xuanmo did not hesitate to consume the purple energy, it would not be a problem for him to kill her in public.

The only thing we need now is to capture him alive and just hold him back.

Therefore, Chen Xuanmo followed the strategy of saving as much purple energy as possible and just tried to scare her. He also stirred up two sword energies to help Chen Ningzhuo escape from the bramble array. Then the father and son joined forces to continuously restrain the purple thorn witch.

Not long after, a beam of fire flew from far away, and then the flames faded, revealing the masked figure of Zhong Li Ye wearing the uniform of the Fentian Peak Weapon Refining Hall.

At the same time, he was holding the unconscious Lei Ze in his hand.

As early as when the fire just appeared, the Xuanmo Spirit Sword had already flown back to Chen Ningzhuo's hand, pretending to be an ordinary mid-grade spirit sword.

At the same time, the heroic spirit Chen Xuanmo stared at Zhong Liye sourly.

This guy is really fast at catching people. You have to know that Lei Ze is a mutant spiritual root of thunder. When he uses the [Thunder Escape Technique], it is really as fast as lightning, and it is difficult for ordinary people to catch up with him.

But why are you pretending to be so cool?
If I were at the Fake Dan realm and possessed the Red Sun True Fire, it would be just as easy for me to capture Lei Ze.

Throwing Lei Ze aside casually, Zhong Li Ye glanced coldly at the Xuan Mo Ling Sword, then raised his hand and blasted a highly condensed Red Sun True Fire at the Bauhinia Demon Girl.

The true fire hit the Bauhinia Demon Girl's chest, and immediately spread out violently and domineeringly, directly wrapping up the Bauhinia Demon Girl and refining her.

Fire naturally overcomes wood, not to mention that Zhongli Ye is using the brilliant red sun true fire!

The Bauhinia Witch screamed in pain, and the green spiritual shield and wooden armor disappeared quickly, visibly to the naked eye.

Seeing that she was about to be refined by the true fire, Chen Ningzhuo hurriedly tried to dissuade her: "Peak Master, leave her alive."

"Humph!"

Zhong Liye glanced at Chen Ningzhuo coldly, waved his hand, and took back the Red Sun True Fire: "Go and tie her up."

"Yes."

Although Chen Ningzhuo called Zhong Liye all the time during the meeting at home, he was very well-behaved and obedient when he was in front of Zhong Liye. He immediately stepped forward and took out some ropes woven with spiritual sword hemp from the storage bag, and tied up the Bauhinia witch.

If it were dealing with those monsters from the Blood Soul Cult outside, Chen Ningzhuo would have already cut off her limbs and pierced her scapula.

But this Bauhinia Demon Girl is, after all, the steward disciple of the Hundred Flowers Valley, and one of the direct disciples of the Hundred Flowers Fairy!

Without trial and verdict, even Zhong Liye couldn't beat her to death at will.

If Chen Ningzhuo dared to do this, even if the Bauhinia Demon Girl was really guilty, the Fairy of Flowers would most likely not forgive him.

It was also at this time.

A colorful glow appeared rapidly in the sky.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the rosy glow arrived above the Jade Lake, and then it faded away, revealing a beautiful woman with a graceful figure and wearing a pleated floral skirt.

Under the bright moonlight, she stood in the air, and her whole body seemed to be shrouded in a hazy halo, as ethereal as mist and as thin as gauze, making her look like a fairy under the moon. However, the pressure from her was so overwhelming and cold that people dared not look directly at her.

She glanced around and saw the situation clearly, and her face suddenly turned cold.

A huge spiritual pressure filled with anger enveloped everyone present.

The gap in strength between Chen Ningzhuo and her was too great, and the pressure from his spiritual sense immediately made his legs go weak, his whole body was covered in cold sweat, and he almost knelt down on the spot.

On the other hand, Zhongli Ye still stood straight and looked as calm as usual.

He took off the black cloth that covered his face, revealing a face as firm and upright as if it had been cut by a knife, and said in a clear voice: "Zhongli greets Senior Sister Baihua."

"Zhongli Ye!?"

The Fairy of Flowers' expression froze slightly. She had recently been in seclusion trying to reach the third level of the Golden Core Stage in order to strengthen her cultivation to deal with the upcoming chaos from the Blood Soul Sect. However, she had never expected that the fighting and energy explosion here would directly wake her up from her seclusion.

I hurried over to take a look, only to find the scene so strange.

Especially his own disciple Zijing, who was covered in dirt and filth, and was tied up by a steward of Jinguang Cave...

Without waiting for the Fairy of Flowers to open her mouth to question.

Zhong Liye said calmly, "Senior Sister Baihua, please calm down. There was a spy in the sect before, and we tried to investigate it secretly but failed. However, the steward of Chiyang Peak found some unusual clues and reported it to me. However, because it involves the direct disciples of Zixiao Peak and Baihua Valley, it is not appropriate to make it public before the evidence is solid. I can only investigate the evidence secretly for the time being."

As he spoke, he threw out a jade talisman that retained his image.

The jade talisman seemed to be held by an invisible hand and slowly floated in front of the Fairy of Flowers.

Chen Ningzhuo was stunned by Zhong Liye's calm and composed response.

It turned out that the peak master who had always been upright and dignified was actually such a peak master. If Chen Ningzhuo had not seen everything from beginning to end, he might have been fooled by him.

Chen Xuanmo, however, sneered twice.

This ungrateful boy is so shameless that he really has the demeanor of Chen Xuanmo in his past.

The Fairy of Flowers on the opposite side looked grim and looked doubtful when she heard this.

She silently took the jade talisman and used her spiritual sense to check it. Before she had looked at it for long, her face had turned ashen, and the hand holding the jade talisman unconsciously clenched: "Okay, okay, I never thought that this sect spy would appear in my Hundred Flower Valley!"

She was so angry that she wanted to slap the traitor Zijing to death with one slap!

However, she was naturally even more angry that there was a spy in her family who was caught by Chiyang Peak.

She suppressed her anger and glanced coldly at Zhong Liye and Chen Ningzhuo: "You are catching spies from Chiyang Peak, but why is one of you wearing the uniform of Jinguang Cave and the other one wearing the uniform of Fentian Peak?"

Especially this hypocritical boy Zhong Liye, he has a criminal record.

When he was young, he followed his frivolous and bad senior brother and did not learn any good deeds, but he was severely beaten and taught a lesson by Baihua.

After hearing this, Zhongli Ye was speechless.

However, he remained calm as usual, and said to Chen Ningzhuo gently: "Ningzhuo, you answer Senior Sister Baihua's question. By the way, let me introduce you, this is my Senior Brother Xuanmo's son."

Just kidding, Zhongli Ye had naturally recognized this kid from [Golden Light Cave] a long time ago. He was Chen Ningzhuo from his own Chiyang Peak, especially the Xuanmo Spirit Sword, which was Chen Xuanmo's signature spirit sword in the late stage!
What?
Chen Ningzhuo felt a little unwell.

Peak Master, why are you wearing the uniform of a disciple from the Weapon Refining Hall and hiding secretly in a secluded cave? I am just a small disciple, how can I know what you are thinking?

Also, why did you mention my dad?

Could it be that my father is friends with the Fairy of Flowers? I have never heard my father mention this.

However, before he could figure it out.

A strong murderous and unhappy atmosphere enveloped Chen Ningzhuo. He heard the voice of the Fairy of Flowers, who seemed to be suppressing her anger: "Okay, okay, so you are the descendants of an old friend. Interesting, really very interesting. Explain to me why you pretended to be disciples of other peaks?"

Chen Ningzhuo's scalp was tingling and his whole body was shaky.

Why am I wearing the Geumgwangdong uniform?

Of course that was my father's request.

Dad, what is the grudge between you and the Fairy of Flowers? How about you come out and explain it to her in person?
Unfortunately, what Chen Ningzhuo didn’t know was that Chen Xuanmo had already hidden in the lucky bead at this moment.

Although he knew that a Jindan cultivator would most likely not be able to detect his heroic spirit state, he still didn't want to hang around in front of the Fairy of Flowers.

Just kidding, this woman is so fierce, she has beaten him several times.

The last time, he coaxed Yao Qiuping into marrying him, having a baby, and establishing a family...

It is worth mentioning that his good wife was once an ordinary disciple of Baihua Valley. However, after only a few years in the valley, she applied to leave the sect and went to happily build a family with him, Chen Xuanmo.

Fortunately, Chen Ningzhuo was Chen Xuanmo's offspring after all, and he was quick-witted at the critical moment. He looked terrified and stuttered as he said, "I dare not deceive the fairy. In order to avenge Master Chiyang, our Chen family has repeatedly fought against the Blood Soul Sect. The most recent time, we provided the sect with key clues, allowing the sect to uncover two blood deacon formations, and even followed the clues to wipe out a blood soul envoy's nest."

"what?"

When these words were spoken, Fairy Baihua and Zhongli Ye were both surprised.

One of them is trying to reach the third level of the Golden Core Stage, and the other is trying to reach the Golden Core Stage. In order not to distract them, they were not involved in the recent operation.

Therefore, they only knew that the sect’s recent actions had achieved remarkable results, but they did not know that Chen’s contribution was also among them.

Chen Ningzhuo had no intention of hiding anything from Fairy Baihua and Zhong Liye. After all, with their status and position in the sect, they could easily obtain the information if they wanted to.

He cleared his throat and told the whole story. In a short while, he recounted how Chen had killed the Poison Shadow Fairy, how he had caught the Blood Soul Sect's evildoer, and how he had provided clues to the sect.

Of course, Chen Ningzhuo, standing on Chen's side, exaggerated the merits and highlighted the importance of Chen's discovery of clues, as if the actions of Master Jin Guang and the Law Enforcement Hall were the result of Chen's secret guidance.

This is the end.

The eyes of Fairy Baihua and Zhong Liye when they looked at Chen Ningzhuo also softened a lot. After all, among the many immortal cultivation families, there were not many families like the Chen family that would cling to the Blood Soul Sect to the death. Most families were thinking about how to protect themselves when the situation was changing.

Zhong Liye, in particular, was deeply moved.

Although they had many grievances against Chen Xuanmo, the fact that the family he left behind was so desperate to avenge their master did not let down their master's strong support and they still had some conscience.

"Since the Blood Soul Cult spies are very likely to try to dig out information about the Chen family, and the Chen family is a family under the jurisdiction of Chiyang Peak." Chen Ningzhuo observed the two bosses' expressions and found that they looked much better, so he said more calmly and confidently, "I didn't dare to act as a disciple of Chiyang Peak, so I discussed with the peak master and changed our identities to avoid alerting the enemy during the investigation. Judging from the results, it was successful."

What he said was actually well-reasoned and also helped Zhong Liye to smooth things over.

At this point, the Fairy of Flowers could find no fault with it.

She looked at Zhong Liye and said, "Since the spy was discovered by you, Junior Brother Zhongli, I would like to hear your opinion on how to deal with and end this matter."

Unexpectedly, Zhong Liye put his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Catching the spy is just a matter of convenience. Now that the matter has been settled, Ning Zhuo, you will stay and accompany the fairy to deal with the follow-up matters. Senior Sister Baihua, I will go ahead. I have to go back to retreat and strive for the Golden Core Avenue."

The words fell.

He turned into a beam of fire, soaring into the sky, and completely disappeared into the sky in a few breaths.

Chen Ningzhuo was completely dumbfounded.

Peak Master, are you so disloyal?
I just helped you out and smoothed things over, and you can't wait to leave me alone to deal with the Fairy of Flowers?

No wonder my dad is so dissatisfied with you and always calls you an ungrateful person.

"Chen Xuanmo's son, right? Hehehe~~~" Fairy Baihua looked at Chen Ningzhuo with a smile, "Your Chen family is doing well and is quite loyal."

"Uh... hehe." Chen Ningzhuo felt a chill on his back and sweat on his forehead, feeling guilty. "Thank you for the compliment, Fairy. Chen is just doing his duty."

"Very good, very good." The Fairy of Flowers praised endlessly.

*****
a few days later.

Chen Ningzhuo finally assisted Fairy Baihua in handling the follow-up matters of catching the spy, and then he returned to Chiyang Peak with a bruised face.

It’s not that the Fairy of Flowers abused him, but because of his contribution in catching the spy, she personally gave him some guidance on fighting and training. It’s just that she was too excited when giving the guidance and didn’t stop for a while.

Chen Ningzhuo comforted himself in this way.

He had no choice but to comfort her. Could he still hold a grudge against Fairy Baihua? He hadn't even reached the third level of the Foundation Establishment Stage, while she was almost at the third level of the Golden Core Stage.

The huge gap made Chen Ningzhuo extremely desperate.

Not to mention Chen Ningzhuo, even when his father was alive, he didn't dare to fart when he was beaten by the Fairy of Flowers.

Chen Ningzhuo thought so again, and his body and mind suddenly felt much more relaxed.

Unfortunately, Chen Xuanmo's purple energy did not have the ability to read minds, and did not know what Chen Ningzhuo was thinking, otherwise he would have made this rebellious son taste the power of the hilt of the Xuanmo sword.

However, Chen Xuanmo was not here at all at the moment.

Although the Xuanmo Spirit Sword is still in Chen Ningzhuo's hands, Chen Xuanmo's heroic spirit can now move within a range of fifteen miles from the Lucky Bead. At this moment, he is leisurely strolling in the building complex at the foot of Chiyang Peak.

Most of the people living here are outer disciples. They have their own streets, various shops, and even a special area for setting up stalls.

When Chen Xuanmo first entered the sect, he started as an outer disciple because he had no foundation.

Afterwards, he accumulated merits step by step and performed actively, and was slowly promoted to inner disciple, elite disciple, core disciple, until he successfully built the foundation, became a disciple of the master, Master Chiyang, became a direct disciple, and served as an inner sect deacon for a period of time.

The process was so difficult that even Chen Xuanmo sheds tears when he recalls it now.

But now that Chen Xuanmo is revisiting his old place, his thoughts are racing and he feels a different kind of nostalgia.

The higher you go on Chiyang Peak, the more advanced the disciples' residences and activity areas become, until you reach the mountainside, where you will see small cave dwellings opened up for disciples in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Not only do they have their own "private doors and courtyards", but there are also outer disciples who do odd jobs and work regularly.

then.

Chen Xuanmo was about to go to the Chiyang Palace on the top of the mountain, but when he got there, he felt his movements becoming increasingly sluggish. He then realized that he was more than fifteen miles away from the Xuanmo Spirit Sword.

Chen Ningzhuo's rebellious son was too slow, so Chen Xuanmo had to return to meet him and ordered him to go to Chiyang Palace.

Now that Chen Xuanmo has been with the children for a long time in the form of a heroic spirit, some simple communications no longer require writing. Sometimes, just a slight tremor, or a slight swing of the sword, the rebellious sons will be able to understand their father's wishes.

After receiving the order, Chen Ningzhuo did not dare to delay any longer and flew all the way to the outside of the Chiyang Palace on the top of the mountain. However, he was stopped by a foundation-building disciple who was on duty to guard the palace. He politely told him that the acting peak master had entered a secluded state and would not see anyone.

Chen Ningzhuo was not discouraged and expressed his willingness to walk around outside the Chiyang Palace, watch the sunrise tomorrow morning, and feel the vastness of the world.

The guard had no objection to this and let him go.

After all, Chen Ningzhuo is now also a celebrity in Chiyang Peak, and his great-nephew Chen Jinghuan has been accepted as a personal disciple by the peak master Zhongli Dai.

Afterwards, Chen Ningzhuo really found a scenic spot and sat cross-legged, pretending to appreciate the beauty of the world, while Chen Xuanmo, in the heroic spirit state, had sneaked into the Chiyang Palace.

He is very familiar with this place.

He walked in familiarly and soon arrived at the place where the peak master was in seclusion.

As a heroic spirit, he had no physical body and was somewhere between existence and non-existence. Therefore, he passed through the wall without any effort and came in front of Zhong Liye.

At this time, Zhongli Ye's body was burning with layers of red sun true fire, and it seemed that he had already begun the process of achieving the golden elixir.

"This kid is still a little impatient after all. If he can continue to practice for a few more years, the probability of successfully forming a pill should be more than 70%."

Chen Xuanmo was concerned about Dan Jie, so he naturally knew a lot about it.

In fact, he was very envious of these chosen ones with three spiritual roots, who could try to break through to the golden elixir before they were 160 years old!

But given Zhongli's current condition, the chance of success is probably less than 70%!

"I wonder if the purple energy can help him." Chen Xuanmo's mind moved, and he began to try to infuse the purple energy into Zhong Liye, just as a last resort.

Anyway, even if the infusion fails, the purple energy will come back and will not be wasted.

Unexpectedly.

The purple energy actually entered Zhong Liye's body very smoothly and condensed into a purple mark on his forehead.

How can this be?

Chen Xuanmo's eyes widened, looking totally surprised.

Today, as Chen Xuanmo explores the purple energy, his understanding of it is getting deeper and deeper. He realizes that in order to instill the purple energy, he must first have an identity recognition!
For example, the descendants of the Chen family all recognized Chen Xuanmo as their ancestor, so they could naturally be instilled with purple energy. And the wives who married into the family also recognized themselves as members of the Chen family, so worshiping them could generate purple energy and they could receive it.

Another example is the case of an adopted son like Su Yuanbai, who has no blood relationship but recognizes his status as an adopted son and can also receive purple energy treatment.

Previously, Chen Ningtai asked Shang Jianzhou to worship Chen Daoling as his godfather and recognize Chen Xuanmo as his ancestor, which was also based on this principle.

But what's going on with Zhongli Ye?

Is it possible...

This kid pretends to be arrogant, but in his heart he actually treats Chen Xuanmo as his father?
Don't rule out this possibility.

Chen Xuanmo pondered secretly, and suddenly realized.

After all, this ungrateful bastard was brought up by Chen Xuanmo himself since he was accepted into the sect at the age of eight!
