Chapter 21: Master and Servant Meet in Secret

Tianshi Qingyue returned to his Tianshi Pavilion in Guojiazhuang. This pavilion was simple and elegant, and had an extraordinary aura. He walked into the room and saw that his disciples had respectfully brought tea and snacks to the table. Tianshi Qingyue waved his hand, motioning them to leave, and then sat alone at the table, closing his eyes and thinking.

He was always suspicious of Mo Yan, so he decided to send a message to Jiang Shan, the guardian of Guo Lin. The art of sending messages was a way for cultivators to communicate over long distances, which was both mysterious and convenient.

"Mo Yan, what are your origins?" The voice of Master Qingyue sounded in Jiangshan's ears.

Jiang Shan was slightly stunned, and then he also replied by voice transmission: "He is the emperor of Xiuguo, Guo Xiu."

When Master Qingyue heard this answer, he was shocked: "Why can't I figure out his identity?"

Jiang Shan explained: "He is a very powerful formation master, so it is understandable that he cannot figure it out. However, we can use Chang Tianlong to figure it out."

Qingyue Tianshi nodded, and then used Chang Tianlong to calculate Mo Yan's identity according to Jiangshan's method. Sure enough, after some calculations, he confirmed that Mo Yan was the emperor of his country - Guo Xiu.

"I see." Master Qingyue understood, but then he remembered another thing, "The little girl who made the contract with him knows how to induce childbirth. How come?"

Jiang Shan also felt a little unbelievable: "It's impossible. At least she didn't know this kind of magic yesterday."

Master Qingyue said in a deep voice: "Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. And judging from Mo Yan's reaction, he seemed surprised by this incident as well."

The two of them fell into deep thought. After a while, Jiang Shan sent a message saying, "This matter is quite strange. We need to investigate Guo Lingli's background. Inform Murong that after this matter is resolved, take her away and interrogate her thoroughly."

Qingyue Tianshi received the order, and the two of them lost their voice transmission. They knew that this seemingly ordinary little girl might be hiding unknown secrets. And all of this required them to further investigate and reveal.

The night was falling, the stars were twinkling, and in the quiet night, Mo Yan walked under the moonlight and quietly came to Chang Tianlong's residence, Jinsheyuan. He was dressed in black, with a stern face and sharp eyes. When he entered the hall, he saw Chang Tianlong waiting at the table with tea and snacks on it.

Mo Yan walked to the table and sat down, tapping the armrest of the chair with his fingers, making a crisp sound. He looked at Chang Tianlong with a sharp gaze and asked in a deep voice, "Have you found out which one is the girl from Heaven's Punishment?"

Chang Tianlong's expression suddenly became very ugly. He lowered his head and said respectfully, "Not yet, Master."

Chang Tianlong was in great pain. He had been investigating the girl who was punished by heaven for almost seven years, but he still had no idea which of the twins was the one who was punished by heaven. He wanted to say several times that both of them were punished by heaven, but they had been separated for a long time, and he didn't see which one was punished by heaven. The entanglement and confusion in this made him feel miserable.

Mo Yan frowned slightly, as if he was not satisfied with Chang Tianlong's answer. He pondered for a moment, his fingers continued to tap the armrest, and slowly said: "Let's put this matter aside for now, no need to investigate. Do you have any inside information about this trip to Wild Wolf Valley?"

Chang Tianlong's expression suddenly became serious when he heard this. He took a deep breath and said, "Indeed, there is. According to Master Qingyue brought by Yun Xin, the spiritual energy of the Red Dragon Pool dissipated because the sinful dragon imprisoned here needed a large amount of spiritual energy to repair its own injuries. Therefore, going to the Wild Wolf Valley to obtain the Wild Wolf Inner Pill is probably just a cover. There may be another secret realm hidden there. The real purpose of our trip may be there."

Mo Yan nodded, and the rhythm of his finger tapping seemed to slow down a bit. He pondered for a moment and said, "I thought so too. This Qingyue Tianshi is too mysterious, and his behavior is always unpredictable. He seems to be afraid that we will ruin his plan, so he deliberately put out the sign of the God of Contract and gathered all the demons and righteous sects here. It seems that he is going to make a big move."

Chang Tianlong was shocked when he heard this. He knew his master's wisdom and strength very well. Since he said so, then Master Qingyue's plan must be extraordinary.

Chang Tianlong stood quietly, with a trace of awe and curiosity in his eyes. He looked at Mo Yan who was sitting at the desk, his heart full of doubts. Finally, he couldn't help but ask, "I wonder what the master's plan is?"

Mo Yan's eyes were deep, as if he could see through everything. He picked up the teacup, sipped the tea gently, and said, "Since their goal is to revive the spiritual energy of the Red Dragon Pool, this is also a good thing for us, after all, it can enhance the national strength." He put down the teacup and changed the subject, "Is Guo Yun leading the team to Wild Wolf Valley this time?"

Chang Tianlong shook his head and replied: "No, Guo Yun wants to stay in the manor. He seems to be looking for something."

"Oh?" Mo Yan raised his eyebrows and thought: Sure enough, it seems that Guo Lin's children have high IQs! "What is he looking for?"

"What he's looking for is the silver doll that Zhao Ying mentioned, with one ear cut off and another ear growing back."

Chang Tianlong was secretly shocked. He was right next to Guo Yun, but he had kept it a secret. How did his master guess it so quickly?

Mo Yan continued, "Their family wanted to use this to gain access to wealth. However, as far as I know, Zhao Ying's silver doll is fake."

Chang Tianlong said quickly: "When Guo Yun and I first came here, we investigated this matter. Zhao Ying does have this way of making money. He would take out a portion of the money regularly. It is absolutely impossible to fake it."

Mo Yan sneered and said, "I'm afraid Zhao Ying has an opportunity that can only get silver as big as a silver ear. Go and check the root of this matter to see if it is caused by the immortal law or human intention."

Chang Tianlong nodded, but he felt a little unwilling in his heart. He really didn't want to stay. So he asked carefully: "Then won't I go with you on this trip to Wild Wolf Valley?"

Mo Yan glanced at him, frowned slightly and said, "Didn't you make a contract with Guo Yun? If he doesn't go, what are you going to do?"

Chang Tianlong felt disappointed when he heard this. He originally thought that he could follow his master to Wild Wolf Valley, but he didn't expect this result.

Mo Yan seemed to see through his thoughts and said calmly, "There are indeed many opportunities on this trip to Wild Wolf Valley. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many demon cultivators gathered here, and even Buddhist cultivators wouldn't have appeared. But opportunities come with dangers, and I'm afraid this trip is also full of dangers. No matter how big or good this piece of fat meat is, it will eventually become a wedding dress for others."

He paused and continued, "Don't forget, the sin dragon in the Red Dragon Pool has a big appetite. Let's feed it first, then we can talk about it."

Chang Tianlong saw that his master Mo Yan had made up his mind, so he didn't say anything more. He knew that his master's analysis was very thorough. Although the trip to Wild Wolf Valley was full of opportunities, it was also full of dangers. So he quickly changed the subject to avoid continuing to dwell on this issue.

He took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Master, there is someone you must pay attention to."

Mo Yan raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, revealing a bit of surprise: "Who is it? Is it worth your warning?"

Chang Tianlong lowered his voice and slowly said the name: "Guo Yangli."

"Guo Yangli?" Mo Yan repeated the name, as if searching for relevant information in his memory.

Chang Tianlong continued to explain: "She is the daughter of Guo Ying, the eldest son of Guo Yun who was adopted by Yun Xin and then returned home. She is seventeen years old this year. It is said that she was specially prepared for her master to enter the palace for selection."

Mo Yan heard this, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes. He naturally understood the meaning of Chang Tianlong's reminder. This Guo Yangli was obviously a chess piece carefully cultivated by the Guo family for some purpose.

"Three years ago, Guo Yun requested that his eldest son Guo Ying be named the Crown Prince of Mu Enbo in order to pave the way for this girl," Chang Tianlong added.
