Chapter 703: In Name Only

This young disciple, naturally is Jiang Yun’s master Gu Bulao!

Since leaving the Mountain-Sea World, Gu Bulao did not tell anyone where he went, and no one could find him.

However, he left a trace of imperceptible divine sense on his four disciples.

This divine sense cannot protect the disciples’ safety, but it allows him to sense their breath anytime, anywhere.

However, now suddenly, he can’t sense Jiang Yun’s breath.

This made Gu Bulao frown slightly, muttering to himself, "Not death, but disappearance!"

"It means that where Fourth Brother is now, there is a powerful force shielding his breath."

"There aren’t many places where I can’t feel Xiao Si’s presence!"

"Even with Xiao Si’s current strength, there are places he can’t go on his own, he must have been taken there by someone else."

"Though not many, if I want to search through each of these places, it will take some time."

After a moment of contemplation, Gu Bulao continued, "I wonder if Dao Tianyou knows about this!"

As he spoke, a Communication Stone appeared in Gu Bulao’s palm, emitting a flashing light.

"Someone from the Seeking-Tao Sect contacted me before, could it be related to this?"

Gu Bulao crushed the Communication Stone, and after listening to the message inside, a cold smile spread across his young face, "They have sent my disciple to Dao Prison!"

"My disciples, under my care, will not be easily bullied or accused, even if they have committed serious wrongdoings. Not even your Dao God Temple can do as they please!"

With those words, Gu Bulao stood up and vanished without a trace!

…

In the Mountain-Sea World, as Jiang Yun’s figure was completely engulfed by the light of the Array Stone, Dao Lianer let out a long sigh from her heart.

Shaking her head, Dao Lianer turned around and walked towards North Mountain without even looking at Yue Qing again.

Yue Qing, on the other hand, also remained silent. It was only after Dao Lianer’s figure disappeared that he grinned and said, "Dao Lianer, this matter is far from over!"

Despite his prestigious identity, being injured by Jiang Yun and suppressed by Dao Lianer in the Mountain-Sea World left Yue Qing empty-handed, a total loss.

Although Jiang Yun had successfully entered the Dao Prison and completed his mission, he couldn’t swallow this insult.

However, even though he sought revenge, he chose not to act now. After uttering those words, he disappeared as well and returned to the Dao God Temple to report.

In the depths of the sea under North Mountain, Mu Shaofeng, who had awoken from his slumber, was concentrating on studying the jade slip left by Jiang Yun.

From birth until now, he had never been as diligent as he was at that moment.

For no other reason, he just wanted to leave here early and see if he could help Jiang Yun.

Just then, he suddenly heard a gust of wind behind him, which made him first stunned, but then he turned around abruptly, with a look of joy on his face, saying, "You’re okay…"

He stopped halfway through his words, originally thinking that it would be Jiang Yun coming, but he never expected it to be a woman he had never seen before.

Although this woman was extremely beautiful, being able to easily enter the Nine Snow Loop Array indicated her strength far exceeded his own.

"Who are you?" Mu Shaofeng’s face showed a cautious expression.

Even though the Nine Snow Loop Array was powerful, it posed no threat to Dao Lianer.

Looking at Mu Shaofeng in front of her, Dao Lianer said expressionlessly, "I was asked to come and take you away!"

"Asked by whom?"

"Jiang Yun!"

"What about him?"

"He is now in Dao Prison!"

With a "plop" sound, Mu Shaofeng just stood up and plopped back down on the ground, a wry smile on his face, "It seems he was unable to escape the pursuit of Dao God Temple after all."

Dao Lianer nodded silently in her heart at Mu Shaofeng’s reaction, it was clear that the friendship between Mu Shaofeng and Jiang Yun was very deep.

A Dao disciple, chosen by the Nine Great Dao Sects for their exceptional talent, may likely succeed the position of sect master in the future, hence holding a special status within their sect.

The Main Seeking-Tao Sect also has its own Dao disciples, and even if Jiang Yun were to go to the Main Sect, with his talent, he could also become a Dao disciple.

To become friends with Dao disciples from other Dao sects is a good thing for both Jiang Yun and the Main Seeking-Tao Sect.

"Alright, if you have no other matters, I will take you away now."

Mu Shaofeng got up, turned to look at the formation that had trapped him for nearly a thousand years, nodded and said, "I have no other matters."

Dao Lianer didn’t waste any more time, she took Mu Shaofeng and left Mountain-Sea World directly.

Mu Shaofeng, who had been waiting outside the realm, hurriedly went to meet them.

When Mu Shaofeng saw Mutian, his eyes lit up and he said, "Uncle Tian!"

"Young Mu Shaofeng!"

Mutian looked Mu Shaofeng up and down, made sure he was okay, then breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly, saying, "You really worried us, luckily nothing serious happened!"

Mu Shaofeng urgently said, "Uncle Tian, we need to go back to our sect quickly, I want to ask my father to take me to see the sect master!"

"You just escaped, why are you in such a hurry to see the sect master?" Mutian asked in confusion.

"I want the sect master to help rescue my friend Jiang Yun from Dao Prison! He has a bad temper and is not strong enough, I’m worried he won’t last long in Dao Prison."

Hearing this, Mutian and even Dao Lianer were surprised and taken aback.

Mu Shaofeng is not Jiang Yun. He is a disciple of the Seeking Dao Sect and knows things that outsiders are unlikely to know.

He understands how difficult it is to enter the Dao Prison to rescue someone. Despite this, his strong desire to save Jiang Yun shows how much he cares about his friend.

Facing Mu Shaofeng’s anxious expression, Mutian hesitated for a moment as if wanting to say something, but ultimately just nodded and said, "I will take you back now."

Mu Shaofeng didn’t know that he was no longer the same disciple he used to be.

His status remained, but it was merely nominal.

After all, disciples could be replaced by others at any time.

Being trapped in the Mountain-Sea World for so long had caused Mu Shaofeng’s cultivation progress to stagnate.

As a result, many disciples in the Seeking Dao Sect who were once inferior to him had surpassed him by far.

It was impossible for him to even see the sect master, let alone ask for help in rescuing someone with his current status.

However, Mutian was not ready to tell the truth to Mu Shaofeng who had just regained his freedom.

Everything will have to wait until returning to Seeking Dao Sect!

Mutian apologized to Dao Lianer, saying, "Sorry for what happened before. This time, I owe you a favor. Feel free to ask for help in the future."

Dao Lianer’s resentment towards Mutian lessened because of Mu Shaofeng’s attitude towards Jiang Yun. She smiled slightly and said, "It’s just a small favor."

"Well then, goodbye!"

"Goodbye!"

As Mu Shaofeng and Mutian left, Dao Lianer also left without delay, returning to Main Seeking-Tao Sect to report Jiang Yun’s situation to the sect master.

Although she was not as confident as Mu Shaofeng in rescuing Jiang Yun from Dao Prison, she would try her best nonetheless.

Finally, the Mountain-Sea World returned to peace, and this peace would last for a long time.

But then, at that moment, the sturdy Seeking-Tao Five Peaks suddenly gave a gentle tremble.

Right after that, the Seeking-Tao Five Peaks shot up into the sky, piercing through the sky and disappearing into the endless horizon.
