The Transcendent Immortal Chapter 161 Knowing The Truth

Xiao Chen wiped off the tears on Li Muxue's face and said softly, "Predecessor Qingfeng asked for me, and it's about the Patriarch Guanshan. Shall I go first?"

Li Muxue nodded and said, "I'm with you."

Xiao Chen smiled gently. "Are you going to go like this? Maybe Predecessor Zi Mo might say that I am bullying you again."

"Humph! Are you not?"

When the two people returned to the yard, Li Muxue washed away the tears on her face, and the two went down the mountain, heading the Coalesced Colors Hall.

When they arrived at the Coalesced Colors Hall, the atmosphere was solemn, and everyone's face was dignified. Xiao Chen and Li Muxue stood in the middle. They first bowed to Perfected Immortal Qing Chen who was at the head of the temple and then greeted several other people.

Perfected Immortal Qing Chen said, "Save the courtesy, Xiao Chen. Please sit down."

Xiao Chen and Li Muxue walked over and sat next to the two elders, Zi and Qing. The Perfected Immortal Qing Chen said again, "This time, the calamity in the East Continent is almost as serious as the one in the Middle Continent before. The person who was full of Devil Qi just destroyed a few sects and then went missing. But Patriarch Guanshan wants to bloodbath the whole East Continent..."

Xiao Chen knew that the person mentioned must be Gu Feng who ran out from the ancient tomb in the back of his family's mountain. It was very much related to Xiao Ning, his true ancestor, and what happened thousands of years ago.

Outside and inside the temple, many people had indignation in their hearts after hearing this. A true devil still had his mercy, but Patriarch Guanshan, who was also a cultivator, actually did such a thing against human nature.

Qingfeng nodded and faced Xiao Chen, saying, "So, Xiao Chen, I discussed with several brothers. And we decide to let you ask Huashang sisters back."

"Me?" Xiao Chen pointed to himself, and he was somewhat puzzled. He thought that there are now five people out of the Seven Sons. Why they let him do this since there were so many choices?

Yu Yifeng said, "Junior Brother Xiao, there's something you don't know. Martial Uncle Huashang established a sect named Heartless Palace in the Falling Flowers Valley decades ago. They have never been in contact with other sects, especially the Jade Qing Sect members. So, you are our only hope."

When Xiao Chen heard Heartless Palace, he was stunned. Chu Lingjiao was one of the Heartless Palace! Last time in Zhou State, they seemed to have made enemies. Was it really good for him to go to the Heartless Palace?

Li Muxue said, "I will go with you."

Just then, a clear voice came from outside the hall. "It's better for me and Junior Sister Li to do this."

Everyone looked back—it was Mu Shaoai walked in. He entered the hall, and his eyes were fixed on Li Muxue. Zi Mo squinted at him and said sarcastically, "You? Are you going to die there? Get lost!"

"You……"

Mu Shaoai was the great disciple of Yuheng Zi. His talent was not bad, and he entered the Core Forming Realm a few years ago. So, he was more or less self-conceit. Although he knew that Zi Mo was his Martial Uncle Xiaoyao, he felt greatly unhappy being humiliated in front of so many people.

Zi Mo stood up and said, "What? Go on!" Although he looked funny in normal days, his cultivation was the most unfathomable one in the Seven Sons. No one knew how strong he was. So, what he said had a certain majesty, and Mu Shaoai was shocked and unable to speak at the scene.

Yu Hengzi coughed and said, "Shaoai, you step back."

"Yes, master." Mu Shaoai now had reason to step back, so he immediately stepped back with a clasp of his hands and walked out of the hall.

Zi Mo was still angry. "d.a.m.n it. How dare he refute back to me!"

Yu Hengzi smiled obsequiously and said, "Junior Brother Xiaoyao, why bother with the disciples." Although he said this, he knew in his heart that Xiaoyao Zi had never been able to get along with himself before. He came back this time and remained the same.

Then, everyone agreed that tomorrow, Xiao Chen and Li Muxue would go to the Heartless Palace and ask Huashang back. Getting out of the hall, Yu Yifeng stopped him and said, "Little Chen, My Martial Uncle Huashang's temper is perverse. You must not mention the names of other Jade Qing Sect members in the Heartless Palace. You can only mention Martial Uncle Qingfeng. Tell her that Martial Uncle Qingfeng let you invite her."

Xiao Xiao was puzzled by this. Was the relations.h.i.+p between the Seven Sons so bad? Where was the friends.h.i.+p of the past? Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Okay, I get it."

In the night, the wind was clear, and the moon was bright. It was late autumn, and the weather was getting cold. Xiao Chen went to Qingfeng's residence and saw him stand in the courtyard with his hands at his back and sighed at the moon. Xiao Chen coughed and said, "Predecessor Qingfeng."

Qingfeng nodded. "Come in." It seemed that he already knew what Xiao Chen came to him for.

Xiao Chen entered the courtyard and clasped his hads. "There are some things that I don't know. Predecessor Qingfeng, please tell me." Qingfeng nodded slightly and said, "Speak."

Xiao Chen took a deep breath and silenced for a long time. He finally asked, "In fact, I was the baby in the sarcophagus, right?"

Qingfeng was silent as if he recalled the scene of that cold night. He said after a long time, "That night, your father came with a baby. I wanted to transmit the soul of the baby in the sarcophagus to the baby in your father's hands. But it turned out that no matter what I did, it did not work. Seeing two babies dying, I had to transmit the soul of the baby in your father's hands into..."

Although Xiao Chen had already expected the truth, he trembled upon hearing this. He asked after a long time, "Does my father know about this?"

Being silent for a moment, Qingfeng nodded.

Xiao Chen's heart hurt, but he was rather moved. Back then, he couldn't practice martial arts at the beginning, and his father went around and searched for medicine. He also recalled that his father always squabbled with several elders for him. He couldn't help but weep.

His mother probably still didn't know about it. But in any case, he would only recognize them as parents, and he was their biological child!

With a sigh, Xiao Chen clasped his hand. "Thank you, predecessor, for telling me the truth tonight. Please don't tell anyone about this."

He knew that this matter involved too many things. The sarcophagus that carried him back then was the spirit gathering sarcophagus carring the body of Patriarch Guanshan which was stolen by a mysterious man from the Skygale Sect. Once this matter spread around, Xiao Chen was afraid that it would cause a big trouble.

Qingfeng nodded. This was also the secret that he had hidden in his heart for many years. Xiao Chen clasped his hands and said, "Then I will not bother you from rest." After that, Xiao Chen went out of the courtyard.

Walking on the mountain road back to his yard, the cold wind blew his face, and his heart was somewhat cool. It was almost half a year since he came to Violet Manor, but he never visited his mother at the Su family. He had to find a way to visit the Su family.

There had always been a faint worry in his heart. He always felt that there would be a major event happening in the near future. It's either related to the destruction of the Mystic Cyan Sect thousands of years ago or related to his resurrection after thousands of years. He did not know how much time was there left for him to reunite with family and friends.

At the same time, in another temple, Yu Hengzi's eyebrows were deeply furrowed. Mu Shaoai walked back and forth in the hall, saying, "Master, are you really going to inject your cultivation into that Xiao Chen? Let's not talk about his unclear background. Last time he was in the Widespread Wintriness Sect, he became very devilish and hurt a lot of people. Base on this issue, how can we trust him?"

Yu Hengzi took a deep breath and said, "I know. But this is your Sect Leader's decision."

Mu Shaoai said with hatred, "Sect Leader. Sect Leader. Sect Leader again! He favored Yu Yifeng, it's fine. But now he wants to push your cultivation into an outsider, only because that man is a descendant of his friend? I'm not worse than Xiao Chen in talent and strength. I'm not worse than Yu Yifeng."

Yu Hengzi glared at him and swung his sleeve. "Do you know which aspect of yours is worse than that of Yu Yifeng? A cultivator should be as quiet as water. But you are so anxious when you encounter something. You won't achieve anything great like this! How can you lead the Jade Qing Sect in the future?"

Mu Shaoai lowered his head and said, "Master, you are right." After a while, he looked up again and said, "But master, you saw it today. That Xiaoyao Zi humiliated me in front of everyone. Obviously, he did it against you..."

Before he finished speaking, Yu Hengzi hurriedly looked out and found nothing in the wind and gra.s.s. He turned his head and thundered in a low voice, "Shut up! Who taught these to you?"

Mu Shaoai's body trembled, and now he knew what he said was sowing dissension among the elders. It was a big sin. According to the Jade Qing Sect rules, he had to face the wall for ten years to regret and confess. So, he immediately lowered his head.

Yu Hengzi said, "Nevermind. I know what to do about it. You go back now."

"Yes, master." Mu Shaoai clasped his hands and left the hall. When he got outside the door, he even felt the moonlight and tree shadows were annoying. A cold light flashed through his eyes, and he said deeply, "Xiao Chen..."
