Mortal Bones

As soon as the voice sounded, Mu Yun and Mu Yuchen froze there.

The two, who lost their mother at a young age, almost grew up in Elder Lou Da's dojo, so they are very familiar with Elder Lou Da's voice and subtle expressions that are not easily noticed by ordinary people when speaking.

Therefore, they can be sure that the person who said this is undoubtedly Elder Lou Da.

But that's why.

Mu Yuchen's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

Because the appearance of this scene basically confirmed that the news of Elder Lou's death was true.

The reason why she had been refuting Xu Taiping before was actually not because she disliked Xu Taiping, but more because she instinctively refused to acknowledge the fact that Elder Lou was dead.

What Mu Yuchen and his sister didn't expect was that Elder Lou actually mentioned them in his last words——

"Mu Yun, Yu Chen, if you two are destined to see this soul mark, please forgive Uncle Lou for leaving without saying goodbye."

"Fortunately, your brother and sister are already able to stand on their own in terms of cultivation, so you don't have to worry about being bullied."

"The only thing I'm a little worried about is your reckless temper, Xiaoyu. Listen to Uncle Lou, and you must think twice before dealing with others in the future."

"As for Mu Yun, your temperament needs to be calmer."

"But you're too slow."

“No matter what you do, seek stability first and then profit.”

"This kind of temperament is fine elsewhere, but if it is placed in the world of spiritual practice, you will be slow at every step."

"You have to remember that in the world of spiritual practice, seeking moderation is tantamount to jeopardizing your future."

"You have to fight for many things, and you have to fight regardless of the consequences, so that you can be one step ahead of others."

Listening to Elder Lou's chattering in the shadow, which sounded a bit "chatty", Mu Yuchen and Mu Yun lowered their heads little by little.

Mu Yuchen even started trembling and sobbing.

What Elder Lou Da said next had nothing to do with spiritual practice, it was just the nagging of an ordinary elder to a younger one.

He asked Mu Yuchen to be wary of men's flattery and asked Mu Yun not to drink too much.

But these extremely ordinary words struck the heartstrings of the brother and sister again and again, making Mu Yuchen burst into tears.

Not only them, but also the discussions in the surrounding Yunlou stands were heard at this time, and they were all silently listening to the chatter of the old man in the shadow.

"Brother Muyun."

After Elder Lou's voice stopped, Xu Taiping directly threw the moon shadow stone in his hand towards Mu Yun.

Mu Yun picked up the Moon Shadow Stone, then held his hands with an apologetic look on his face and said:

"Brother Taiping, I was careless about what happened today."

Then he raised his head, took out a jade plaque, handed it to Xu Taiping solemnly and said:

"To express my apology, please accept this Order of Protection of Guangling Pavilion, Taiping."

After hearing this, Mu Zhixing on the side just glanced at the Dao Protection Order in Mu Yun's hand, and then looked away.

The Guangling Pavilion's Protective Order is extremely precious.

However, Mu Zhixing did not stop Mu Yun, which shows that he also felt that Xu Taiping was worthy of being gifted the Taoist Order.

Xu Taiping, who also knew how precious this protective order was, immediately refused:

"Brother Muyun, I..."

But before he could finish his words, Mu Yuchen snatched the Taoist Order and stuffed it into Xu Taiping's hand, and then said in a very firm tone: "If you don't accept it, I will go to your Qingxuan Sect Mountain Gate to guard it every day!"

Before Xu Taiping could say anything, Mu Zhixing, who was not far away, immediately scolded Mu Yuchen with a cold face:

"Crazy, come back quickly!"

Mu Yuchen seemed to be extremely afraid of Mu Zhixing. After being scolded, his body suddenly stiffened and he immediately retreated quickly.

Xu Taiping, who was a little confused, glanced at the Dao Protection Order in his hand, and was about to hand it back to Mu Yun again, but Mu Zhixing spoke again:

"You should keep the things, otherwise the two brothers and sisters may have a knot in their hearts."

Xu Taiping was stunned for a moment, and then he nodded immediately and said:

"Then thank you Pavilion Master and Brother Muyun."

At this time, Zhenjun Xuanmin, who was not far away, suddenly asked Xu Taiping eagerly:

"Xu Taiping, is there anything else going on?"

Xu Taiping nodded, and immediately pressed his hand on the stone tablet again, unlocking the soul marks of True Monarch Yunhe, Master Yi Zhu, and Evil Lord Qingtong in sequence.

While unlocking the soul marks of the three of them, he remained on the sidelines and briefly described the situation at that time.

However, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he concealed the situation in which he wielded the sword to kill the Yuan Master, and after that, the Qingtong Evil Lord and other souls helped him resist the extraterrestrial demons.

So Evil Lord Qing Tong became the hero who killed the Yuan Master and finally saved the entire Shangqing Realm, while Xu Taiping only survived under their protection.

All of this, Xu Taiping had already agreed with Fairy Lingyue when they were in the cave in Jinting.

In this way, this demon-slaying battle can be remembered by the world, while also preventing Xu Taiping from exposing some of his secrets.

"call……"

After telling all this, Xu Taiping let out a long breath.

He glanced at Jianping and the shocked faces in the surrounding stands, and then said in his heart with a look of relief:

"Seniors, your deeds will surely be remembered by the world together with this sea-walking monument from generation to generation."

After a brief period of dead silence, the discussion in Jianping and the surrounding stands started again.

The Muyun siblings, as well as the cultivators who had previously accused Xu Taiping, all looked ashamed.

However, Xu Taiping didn't care about these things.

Because the main purpose of making these public, in addition to letting the world remember the predecessors such as Qingtong Xiejun, was to prevent Su Chan's plan from succeeding.

Immediately, Xu Taiping sent a message to Fairy Lingyue without any expression:

"Sister Lingyue, can you ask Su Chan to release the people?"
