Chapter 1354: Scheming Like the Sea

After listening to the introduction, Su Yi slowed down and returned to his group. Situ Muyang looked at Su Yi with admiration in his eyes and said softly.

"Little Teacher Uncle, and Big Brother Stoneheart, you’re both so strong! I am the weakest one here!"

Situ Muyang kept talking, and his eyes sparkled with excitement as they arrived at Nine Star Valley and the surrounding lights dimmed a little.

Su Yi smiled, and said softly, "Muyang, with hard work and dedication, you can achieve anything. At your age, you are an extraordinary presence. Believe in yourself! The Divine Sword School is a top power in the Central Region, and you are the Young Sect Leader!"

"Hmm, hmm! Don’t underestimate yourself!"

In an instant, Situ Muyang’s innocent and confident smile reappeared, as he whispered to Su Yi.

"But, Little Teacher Uncle, I thought that besides your Overlord Sect in the Chaos Realm, there were no good people left. That City Master Nangong we just met had powerful cultivation and a good character! Just and fair in reward and punishment!" Situ Muyang finished speaking, showing his admiration towards Nangong Hange up ahead.

Just as Su Yi was about to respond, Ying Ming, with her eyes gleaming playfully, waved for Situ Muyang to come over.

Situ Muyang had witnessed Ying Ming’s methods, and now hesitantly moved over.

"Little brother, come here, and let sister teach you a lesson!" Ying Ming’s eyebrows relaxed, and she smiled as she pointed at Situ Muyang’s eyes.

"Don’t rely on your eyes to see everything, use your heart to see!"

"Look carefully?" Situ Muyang scratched the back of his head and asked, confused.

"Kid, let me ask you, when you first came in, did you still feel the energetic aura of that troublemaker Luan Shuo? And are there fewer strong people following the young man from Nangong?" Xi Wuqing asked as he walked forward, speaking softly.

Situ Muyang carefully recalled that at that time, all the attention was on Nangong Hange and Su Yi, and then he followed Nangong Hange into the valley.

At that time, he was focused on entering the mountain valley and didn’t pay attention to the number of strong people behind Nangong Hange.

Moreover, even if Luan Shuo was frozen, as long as he didn’t die, his energetic aura would still leak out from the ice, especially for strong individuals in the Yuan Void Realm. Their energetic aura is rich and solid, and it wouldn’t conceal perfectly.

Upon careful consideration, Situ Muyang realized that he hadn’t sensed Luan Shuo’s aura anymore.

Situ Muyang quickly raised his gaze and looked behind Nangong Hange, indeed, there were two fewer disciples from Nine Star Valley. He shrugged his nose and said softly.

"Certainly didn’t find any aura, and the numbers don’t match. Could they be dead? Gone to fetch their bodies?"

A smile appeared on Xi Wuqing’ lips, and Fairy Wuchang’s beautiful face also showed a smile. She lightly tapped Situ Muyang’s head.

"She looks very clever, why is she so silly? She was quickly carried away by someone!"

Fairy Wuchang quietly transmitted a message to Situ Muyang. It seemed like South Palace Muyang was punishing Luan Shuo by freezing him, but he actually used water energy to turn his energy into ice, temporarily suppressing his injuries and soul so that Luan Shuo wouldn’t be seriously hurt and trapped in fear!

Situ Muyang’s eyes flickered, observing every word and action of Nangong Hange.

Upon careful analysis, it was just as the two sisters had said. If this was really his intention, then South Palace’s scheming was indeed deep!

"Look with your heart!" Situ Muyang murmured to himself, Ying Ming’s words echoing in his mind.

After a short while, a spark flashed in Situ Muyang’s eyes.

Yes, from the very beginning, Nangong Hange had been waiting in the distance, with the aim of testing Su Yi’s cultivation level.

Unexpectedly, Su Yi effortlessly defeated the strong opponent from the Yuan Emperor Realm, greatly disrupting Nangong Hange’s plan.

If it wasn’t for his cousin being so ordinary, Nangong Hange wouldn’t have come out so early.

And because Luan Shuo is actually Nangong’s cousin, Red Sun Sect has secretly become a subordinate power of Nine Star Valley for many years. Nangong Hange, both in public and private, wouldn’t just stand by and watch his despicable cousin die at the hands of Su Yi.

As soon as they came out, naturally they couldn’t openly rescue their cousin in front of everyone’s eyes.

Nangong Hange had no choice but to come up with a plan. He quickly pretended to punish Luan Shuo and froze him, so that Luan Shuo couldn’t spread rumors everywhere. It wouldn’t be good if he revealed any secrets.

This way, it not only makes others think that he is upright and unyielding, showing no mercy, but it also quickly stops Luan Shuo’s injuries in secret.

Then, while everyone’s attention is still on him, quickly take people into the valley and free up time to move Luan Shuo and heal the Red Sun Sect elders.

"Just a moment ago, Nangong Hange was talking so heroically to Little Teacher Uncle! It was a really good performance! I almost got tricked!" Situ Muyang’s eyes shimmered with astonishment, deeply moved.

Fairy Wuchang looked serious and cautiously said, "This shows that Nangong is actually a deceitful person with deep hidden intentions. We must be on guard against him."

"Even those old fellows were fooled, so a little kid like you naturally won’t be spared!" Fairy Wuchang rolled her eyes and looked ahead.

"City Master Nangong, not only possesses powerful strength, but also fairness and justice. To guide and explain for us, he is truly a hero of our Chaos Realm!" An elder from the Xuan Yin Sect talked animatedly, spewing saliva.

Other young boys from places like Purple Shadow Building and Qingyan Sect were in awe of City Master Nangong.

Some girls blushed and couldn’t help but look up at Nangong Hange’s handsome profile, with hearts in their eyes.

Situ Muyang sneered and raised his nose, silently dismissing the situation. This time, he followed his Little Teacher Uncle, but his own low cultivation level didn’t contribute much. However, he did learn a lot about understanding people from his Little Teacher Uncle.

The gap in cultivation level could be caught up with, but as for understanding people’s thoughts, that takes time. There’s so much Situ Muyang still needs to learn.

Situ Muyang made a firm determination to stay by Su Yi’s side. Not only could he not help Su Yi, but his own growth was also too slow.

Su Yi was like a huge umbrella protecting him, and only by leaving Su Yi could Situ Muyang grow better and faster. It should be time to bid farewell after leaving Nine Star Valley.

Situ Muyang overheard the conversations between Wuchang and Situ, and they were exactly what Su Yi was thinking. Su Yi stared at the sky, his gaze determined and cold.

"They say we should be cautious of Chen Yao, but it seems South Palace is no easy opponent either!"

Xi Wuqing, the Green Emperor, and others behind them all had serious expressions, each considering their own thoughts.

"Boom boom…"

Following Nan Gong, they walked through paths in the forest and faintly heard a roaring sound. After turning a few corners, a massive waterfall suddenly appeared in front of them.

From a distance, it looked like a silver ribbon hanging between the mountains and rivers, like a beautiful woman’s hair, or like ethereal mist, embedded in the mountain.
