Wu Daoling didn't want to see Li Mo a second longer.
After leaving the Celestial Sun Sect, he immediately turned into a rainbow and flew towards the direction of the Imperial City.
"Little Mo, you're a ruthless one!
Not only did you get rid of our arch-enemy without breaking a sweat, you even got a sizable amount of wealth.
You've perfected the art of killing with a borrowed knife! "
"I say, grandaunt, are you praising me or insulting me?
Why does it sound so awkward? "
Li Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Of course I'm praising you!"
"Haha … Alright, stop bickering with each other every day.
Little Mo did a great job, but I don't know if Liu Jing will be willing to share the wealth with us. "
Xuanyuan Wudi was worried.
"Senior Xuanyuan, don't worry about this.
The Imperial Court is under Immortal Sun Sect's control. Unless Liu Jing doesn't want to be the Emperor anymore, he will do as we say. "
Liu Changhe spoke from the side. He didn't think Liu Jing would go against Immortal Sun Sect again.
"Uncle Liu … oh, no!
Father-in-law is right.
Liu Jing is willing to be a puppet of Immortal Sun Sect in order to protect his throne. This shows how much he values it.
He won't disobey our orders for a paltry amount of wealth! "
"You punk!
Forget it, little Mo, just keep calling me uncle Liu.
It sounds much more intimate than father-in-law. "
"He-he, I'll gladly accept. I also find it easier to call uncle Liu!"
Xuanyuan Wudi and Wanling were so amused by them that they couldn't close their mouths.
…
After a few peaceful days, Li Mo finally had a good rest.
He didn't do anything but stay by Liu Yan's side, wanting to make up for what he owed her.
"Little Mo, now that we are married, you don't need to stay by my side.
I know you're a man of great deeds. You can't let love get in the way of important matters. "
Liu Yan was now like a new wife, more gentle and considerate to Li Mo.
"Yan 'er, the world has been peaceful recently, and our Immortal Sun Sect has been developing in an orderly manner.
Everything is going smoothly. There's nothing for me to worry about. My current task is to stay by your side. "
"Humph!
You only know how to say these flowery words to deceive me. "
Then she buried her head in Li Mo's chest. This carefree life was exactly what Liu Yan wanted.
"Little Mo … Aiyo!
Looks like I came at the wrong time! "
Wanling's voice broke this moment of tenderness.
Li Mo and Liu Yan separated in a hurry, their faces red as they looked at the embarrassed Wanling.
"I say, great aunt, can't you give me a signal when you come?
Don't you know that you are prying into other people's privacy? "
Li Mo was helpless. He had no way of dealing with this grandaunt.
"Hehe, what's there to be shy about?
I've been through it all.
The Sect Master and the rest are in the Assembly Hall and asked me to call you over. Liu Jing has already sent people over and they have delivered a lot of things. "
Li Mo's heart skipped a beat.
"Ha-ha … it seems this Liu Jing is a lot more well-behaved now. Let's go."
After that, he apologetically looked at Liu Yan, who was still shy.
"Yan 'er, wait for me!
I'll be right back! "
"En!
Off you go. Business is more important. "
Liu Yan bowed to Wanling and returned to her room.
"Kid, you really don't know how much virtue you accumulated in your past life to be able to marry such a good girl like Liu Yan."
Wan Ling muttered in a low voice. Then, her figure flashed and disappeared.
Li Mo shook his head helplessly and disappeared as well.
In the Immortal Sun Sect's Assembly Hall, Liu Changhe, Liu Shizhong, Liu Shixiao, Xuanyuan Wudi, and the rest of the higher-ups were all present. The hall was filled with chests.
A primary Martial Emperor Li Mo had never seen before stood respectfully to the side.
"What?
Did Liu Jing send you here to deliver things to us? "
Li Mo asked leisurely.
"That's right. The Grand Preceptor has been very busy recently.
His Majesty sent me to deliver half of the Nangong World's wealth! "
The Martial Emperor cupped his fists and answered Li Mo's question.
Li Mo smiled, thinking that Wu Daoling didn't have the guts to face him, fearing he'd ask too much.
That's why he was sent.
But Li Mo didn't care who came, only what they brought.
After opening all the chests, the hall was filled with splendor and the fragrance of spiritual herbs filled the air.
"En!
Not bad. Go back and tell Liu Jing I'm very satisfied with him. "
The primary Martial Emperor was relieved and left in a hurry.
When Li Mo turned to the elders around him, he was a bit surprised.
It should have been a joyous occasion, but for some reason, all of them had a trace of worry on their faces.
"What's going on?
Is something the matter? "
"Sigh!
Little Mo, that Martial Emperor didn't just bring us these things, he also told us a piece of news. "
Liu Changhe spoke with a straight face.
"Uncle Liu, what's going on?"
Seeing everyone's solemn expression, Li Mo realized the gravity of the situation.
"It's like this. Ever since our Immortal Sun Sect rose to prominence, sects have appeared in Wu Ling Province and Qing Province.
In the Wu Ling Plains and the Cyan Plains, there were sects as well. They were all established by some powerful families and their affiliated families.
Liu Jing is afraid of threatening his authority, so he wants our Immortal Sun Sect to help him suppress these sects. "
"What?
It seems they can't bear to see our Immortal Sun Sect alone and want a place in the Abstruse Continent? "
Li Mo's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect so many people would follow his lead.
"Their sects don't have much of an impact on our Immortal Sun Sect.
As long as they can protect the people of the continent, their existence isn't a problem.
But it's hard to explain to Liu Jing. If we don't help him, we won't be able to justify ourselves! "
Xuanyuan Wudi pointed out the crux of the matter, leaving everyone to think of a solution.
"It seems I really need to go to the Imperial City and have a good chat with Liu Jing.
This isn't going to be easy. If we help Liu Jing destroy the other sects, how will our Immortal Sun Sect stand on the continent?
If that happens, how will our Celestial Sun Sect continue to have a foothold in the continent?
If we don't, Liu Jing will bear a grudge and one day, he'll come after us. "
Li Mo's worried voice had the others nodding.
The people present were all experienced people who had been in Jianghu for many years, so they naturally knew the pros and cons.
"There's no need to worry about this!"
While everyone was still thinking hard, Bai Yichen's voice suddenly appeared in the hall.
Then, a white figure accompanied by a five-colored glow appeared in everyone's line of sight.
"Ancestor!"
"Greetings, master!"
"Greetings, supreme elder!"
Everyone bowed to Bai Yichen.
