…

The Next Day, the Beast Palace Sect Master personally paid a visit.

The Sect Master was a middle-aged man leaning towards old age, wearing a brown long robe. His first act upon entering the mountain villa was to subtly offer an apology.

“Indeed, esteemed guests arrived yesterday, and I hope Miss Xiao Xiao can understand,” the Beast Palace Sect Master said.

“Alright already, I just happen to have a few things to ask you about,” Xiao Xiao waved her hand and motioned for the old Sect Master to sit beside her.

“Miss, please feel free to ask,” the old Sect Master said.

“A few of my fellow disciples are pursuing those who had committed crimes in the Silent Forest, and I heard from Uncle Sun that you might have some information here, so I specifically wanted to ask you,” Xiao Xiao said.

“Master Sun Xuan’s intention, is it…” As soon as the old Sect Master heard Xiao Xiao mention Master Sun Xuan, he immediately nodded and began to speak, “As for information, there isn’t much. However, many years ago, an incident did occur under my jurisdiction.”

“Mhm, go on,” Xiao Xiao urged.

“Back then, among those from the Silent Forest, there was a group of people who were not in the forest but were persistently pursuing a bunch of creatures that escaped from the Silent Forest. There were about fifty or so, and when these creatures passed by the Heavenly Stele, they were intercepted and a great battle ensued at the location of the stele,” the old Sect Master said.

“Really? Tell me more,” Xiao Xiao’s eyes lit up.

When the incident in the Silent Forest occurred, a great number of creatures escaped from it. Curiously, these fifty or so forest creatures were chased all the way to Lin City from the distant Silent Forest, indicating that something extremely important was definitely among them, perhaps including those carrying the World Tree Seed.

“Because there were many experts present at the time and my own strength was negligible, I only watched from a great distance, not daring to approach rashly, and thus know very little,” the old Sect Master said.

“What are you afraid of? You are, after all, an Immortal Level person,” Xiao Xiao said, dissatisfied.

The Sect Master’s face reddened, and he coughed a few times before continuing, “Miss Xiao Xiao, the situation was very chaotic at the time, and the strength of both the fifty or so creatures from the Silent Forest and their pursuers were formidable.”

“Did you recognize anyone?” Xiao Xiao immediately asked.

“That… I cannot say…” the Sect Master said.

“Why can’t you say!” Xiao Xiao immediately became impatient.

“If Master Sun Xuan were to ask me in person, I could tell him, after all, it involves…” The old Sect Master paused, then remembered something, “Oh right, the distinguished guest this time is He Shangguan from the Divine Sect, and he is also here to investigate this matter. Miss Xiao Xiao, would you like me to introduce him to you?”

“I’m not interested, what else do you know?” Xiao Xiao asked.

At that moment, Pang Yue leaned in to inquire beside Chu Mu, “What does ‘Upper Office’ mean?”

“Divine Sect’s internal members are divided into four ranks: Chief, Upper, Middle, and Lower officials. ‘Upper Office’ should be the highest title within the Soul Controller grade,” Chu Mu explained.

Chu Mu remembered Lu Yuqin was a Chief Officer, and he had always thought that Lu Yuqin possessed the strength of a Peak Master Level. It was only later that he learned that those who obtained the title of Chief Officer were Immortal Level Powerhouses.

If Lu Yuqin had taken Ghost Jinrou away with a tough stance at that time, really no one would be able to stop her.

However, this also showed that Divine Sect’s Lu Yuqin had a very upright character. If it were another Immortal Level Powerhouse, they wouldn’t care about such matters.

The status of the Divine Sect is generally higher than other forces. Although the old Sect Master of the Beast Palace is an Immortal Level Powerhouse and should be on equal footing with the Chief Officers of the Divine Sect, the Divine Sect’s status is indeed very high. Even if an Upper Officer comes, the old Sect Master would need to personally receive him.

Xiao Xiao continued to probe the old Sect Master while Ye Wansheng and Chao Leng Chuan, who were wandering around the sect, returned with faces full of anger.

These two had gone out early in the morning to find a place for a martial arts sparring, and no one knew what had happened, but they came back furious, and their voices were heard from the front yard.

“What kind of person is that, really, acting all important. If it weren’t for him being surrounded by so many people, I would’ve hit him this morning!” Ye Wansheng complained with a full face.

“Yes, we were there sparring, what did it have to do with him? Is it just because we shattered his barrier and scared those women behind him? We apologized first,” Chao Leng Chuan was also visibly upset.

“Did you catch his name?” Ye Wansheng asked.

“Don’t know, the people around him were calling him ‘He’ something,” Chao Leng Chuan said.

The two of them were talking as they walked into the main hall, only to find that the old Sect Master, Chu Mu, Xiao Xiao, and Pang Yue were all staring at them with wide eyes.

The old Sect Master’s smile had gone stiff, and he asked in a low voice, “The person you’re talking about, is it He Shangguan?”

“Yes, yes, that’s him. I heard the people around him calling him that. I remember now… Uncle, you also find him very unpleasant, right?” Ye Wansheng finally realized.

“`

The Old Sect Master’s face was black with anger.

Why did these two have to provoke someone from the Divine Sect?

“Did you guys not cause too much of a conflict?” The Old Sect Master suppressed his anger and asked with a stern face.

“It wasn’t much, just cursed a few times,” Chao Lengchuan replied.

“That’s good then…” The Old Sect Master’s expression softened somewhat.

“Morning Crown Prince, look at you, how can you let it go with just a few curses after being humiliated? When I apologized, I secretly sprinkled some Flea Poison powder. I bet by now, he must be scratching his delicate skin raw, hahaha.” Ye Wansheng snickered treacherously.

“What is Flea Poison powder?” asked Chao Lengchuan, puzzled.

“It’s a special type of Poisonous Mist, colorless and odorless, and even with Soul Sense, it’s very difficult to detect. My younger sister concocted it herself to deal with some tasteless men who kept pestering her relentlessly. Sprinkle this flea powder on someone, and it attracts tiny poisonous insects. Think about it, we’re on a mountain! Tiny poisonous insects are everywhere. Having them swarm the person, they’ll be bitten to death, and in less than an hour they’ll peel off a layer of skin at least!” Ye Wansheng explained.

Ye Wansheng, oblivious to the odd expressions on the faces of the four people present, casually walked over and sat next to the Old Sect Master, vividly describing how he sneakily sprinkled Flea Poison powder on that He surname person.

Ye Wansheng, thick-headed as he was, didn’t realize the strangeness in the expressions of those present, and the somewhat obtuse Morning Crown Prince was stupidly nodding along, commending Ye Wansheng for his smart move!

For some reason, after hearing Ye Wansheng describe the Flea Poison powder, Chu Mu himself felt uncomfortably uneasy…

Flea Poison powder, and it’s undetectable by Soul Sense too!

What on earth was Qingzi crafting this stuff for!

In that moment, Chu Mu suddenly realized that should he ever irritate Qingzi one day, he would likely die a miserable death under her calm and cold smile.

Qingzi herself was a woman who could keep her temper in check after all, and sleeping next to her every day, she might whimsically sprinkle some on him…

As Chu Mu was thinking about treating Ye Qingzi even better in the future, the Old Sect Master, who had been made to crawl with unease by Ye Wansheng’s story, could no longer sit still and hurriedly left the Mountain Villa.

“Hey, this old man is definitely off to see how miserable that He surname person is, haha. At his age, he still holds such a grudge! I bet he really dislikes that He surname. Otherwise, why would he have gotten so worked up when I mentioned it just now?” said Ye Wansheng with a laugh.

“You two…” Pang Yue was at a loss for what to say.

Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, seemed unconcerned and eagerly asked Ye Wansheng if there was any more Flea Poison powder left so she could save it to deal with some perverts.

“By the way, Xiaoxiao, did you find out anything?” Ye Wansheng gave the Flea Poison powder to Xiaoxiao and then asked.

“I only know that there was a group of people chasing over fifty Soul Pets that escaped from the Silent Forest. There was also a fight near the Heavenly Boundary Monument. That old man is really something. How bad could it be to tell me about one or two people? I bet he definitely knows who was in that group,” said Xiaoxiao as she carefully stowed away the Flea Poison powder.

“The Old Sect Master actually gave you a hint with his eyes just now,” said Chu Mu.

“A hint? What hint?” Xiaoxiao asked, confused.

“He was hinting to you that among that group were people from the Monster Beast Palace,” said Chu Mu.

Chu Mu had noticed this detail, but unfortunately, Xiaoxiao wasn’t very perceptive.

“People from the Monster Beast Palace? Ah? Does that mean people from our Beast Palace were involved in this incident…” Xiaoxiao said with a shocked face.

“It seems likely. Master Sun Xuan also kind of told you,” Chu Mu continued.

Upon recalling what Master Sun Xuan had said, Xiaoxiao suddenly understood something. However, this news was a total surprise to her. Being part of the Monster Beast Palace and condemned by it, Xiaoxiao never imagined that people from the Monster Beast Palace were involved in that dreadful event.

“Eh, Chu Mu, where are you going?” Xiaoxiao asked, seeing Chu Mu getting up.

“I’m going to the Heavenly Boundary Monument to have a look,” Chu Mu said.

Chu Mu remembered the Sea Maiden telling him that a large group of people were chasing over twenty wild Soul Pets in Wan City and those Soul Pets were all trying their best to protect a little girl.

The same thing seemed to have happened here at the Heavenly Boundary Monument. If Ning Man’er and the Guardians had escaped from the Silent Forest via this route, it was likely that the Heavenly Boundary Monument was where they encountered an ambush, and the number of Guardians had reduced from fifty to twenty.

After Ning Man’er reached New Moon Land, she didn’t have any World Tree Seeds with her. If Ning Man’er had the World Tree Seed when escaping from the Silent Forest, then it was possible that she had hidden the seed somewhere along the way.

Chu Mu felt that the Heavenly Boundary Monument could very well be a good place to hide the seed, as Ning Man’er’s escape route ran from the Silent Forest to the Lin City Heavenly Stele and then to New Moon Land, which also had a Heavenly Boundary Monument…

If this wasn’t a coincidence, then there must be a reason.
