"Ah?" Mo Liushang was stunned. He couldn't expect that his excuses were actually taken seriously by Mu Limo, who asked him to do it immediately with an aggressive attitude.

Li Mo looked him straight in the eye calmly: "Why, Brother Mo, do you feel it's difficult?"

Her eyes were like sharp swords, as if they had substance, and when people were stared at by her, they couldn't help but feel terrified.

Mo Liushang was no exception. He immediately lowered his head and said, "Yes, Elder Mu."

Li Mo slowly picked up the tea and drank it in silence. Mo Liushang also hurried downstairs.

After a while, he replied, "It is said that every five years, on the night of the setting moon, purple air will emerge from the ground in the form of fine threads of spiritual energy, stretching toward the sky. The purple crystals condensed at that time are also the largest and of the best quality."

Li Mo tapped the tabletop with his fingers, making a few soft sounds, and said, "I would like to know what this condensed purple crystal is used for?"

"This..." Mo Liushang hesitated.

"Cannot be said?" The words added a hint of chill, inexplicably causing a layer of cold sweat to break out on Mo Liushang's back. He lowered his head and remained silent for a long time before gritting his teeth and saying, "In fact, sinners like us don't know the use of this thing, but I heard from the old man that the purple crystal is related to the foundation of Wentian and the people of the world..."

"Old man... what is the longest time you mentioned for a crime here?"

"More than a thousand years."

Over a thousand years, this number is surprising, but not surprising. The Heavenly Sword God is almost a thousand years old. The Wentian Sect has been the first righteous sect for ten thousand years, with a hundred thousand disciples. There are countless disciples who have committed serious crimes. It is not surprising that there is a disciple who has been serving a sentence for more than a thousand years. It's just that for a thousand years, staying in a dark place...

I don’t know what crime he has committed...but we can also get a glimpse of the iron-blooded and tyrannical nature of Wentian.

He has been practicing without stopping for more than a thousand years, so his cultivation level is considered that of an old monster. Would an old monster with such profound cultivation be willing to stay here forever?

This thought flashed through Li Mo's mind, so she asked, "Can I go around and meet the old man you mentioned?"

"This..." Mo Liushang hesitated.

Li Mo took out the Sword Pavilion Master's Order, exuding the pressure of a transcendental realm cultivation, and said in a very light and gentle voice: "Is it not possible..."

This voice seemed to explode in Mo Liushang's ears, making his heart numb. It was clearly the gentle whisper of a lover... but it was like a cold sword piercing one's heart, causing pain.

What is this... He was horrified.

Only then did he realize the horror of the transcendental realm.

He knew that if the pressure exuded by Mu Limo was a little stronger, he would probably vomit blood on the spot and be in a miserable state.

The other party held back and gave him face.

But the means were also extremely swift and cruel.

She doesn't look like a young girl who has just been promoted to an elder, but rather like an old monster who has been wielding power for many years.

Mo Liushang couldn't help but feel even more nervous, and hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Yes, Elder Mu, please follow me."

She is a powerful figure in the Wentian Sect, and her cultivation is unmatched. What reason does he have to stop her?

As Li Mo walked along, he saw that everyone in the valley looked listless and gloomy. A few of them looked haggard and looked like they would fall down if pushed.

Seeing that Li Mo looked at the particularly skinny man for a few more times, Mo Liushang led the way and explained: "Those people are not treated harshly by the sect and lack of support. It's just that they just came in and couldn't accept that they went from being the number one disciple in the world and the proud children of heaven that everyone outside envied, to what they are now. They think about it day and night, and are tired and burdened, and have become like this."

Li Mo nodded.

That's how it is.

He was a disciple of the world's number one sect, the Wentian Sect, but now he has become a prisoner, buried in this dark underground cave, and he doesn't know how many years it will take for him to get out. Even if he was punished for doing something wrong, he was lucky enough to escape death, and he probably couldn't accept it in the early stages.

The most cruel thing is to go from being on top to falling hard.

After walking along the winding road and reaching a sparsely populated area, Mo Liushang finally stopped in front of a dilapidated wooden house. The light in the house was very dim. However, Li Mo knew that having a wooden house in the dungeon and being able to light a lamp was a treatment that very few sinners could get.

As expected, Mo Liushang bowed in front of the door and said, "Master Mu, someone wants to see you."

All I could hear was the sound of a wooden chair being moved from inside the room, followed by an old voice. He coughed a few times before asking, "Is this the guest who came tonight?"

"Yes."

The old man was silent for a while, then said, "She doesn't need to come in."

Mo Liushang was surprised and subconsciously looked at Li Mo, but Li Mo's expression was very calm and he didn't say a word, so he had to answer first, "Why?"

"I shouldn't see him, and I can't see him." The old man said as if he was feeding him and sighing.

"The old gentleman does have some personality. It's a pity that this reason of not being able to tolerate others probably can't stop me." Li Mo spoke, and there was a sense of tension in his voice as soon as he opened his mouth, which immediately made Mo Liushang feel nervous.

The old man seemed surprised. He was stunned for a moment, then he laughed hoarsely: "Hahaha, I haven't been here for many years. Such an interesting disciple actually appeared in the Wentian Sect. His personality is very different from those of the righteous disciples... I really can't imagine that it was that old man Qinghua who could teach him. I can't imagine, I can't imagine..."

"My master, Tian Jianzi."

"Mu Jianfei... it's possible..."

The old man murmured with some memories in his tone, "I didn't expect that the little kid who was as cold as ice and snow back then also had an apprentice. And his temperament is not the same as his, but he is a special kid..."

Little Ice Cube is her senior brother, not her. She is an outlier in Ducang Peak and even in Wentian Sect, so of course she is special.

The old man sounded like a person of the previous generation of the master, and he was indeed a prisoner for a thousand years. Moreover, Li Mo knew very well that to be able to stay in this place for a thousand years, his level and cultivation were immeasurable. It was even more exaggerated to say that there was no way that there was more than one Grand Master of the Out-of-the-World Realm hidden in the dungeon of the Wentian Sect. It could be said that this dungeon could not hold him. The reason why Gan Yu stayed in this dark dungeon for a thousand years was that he imprisoned himself.

"What is your Taoist name, senior? Please teach me." Li Mo's tone was filled with respect.

"My past is not worth mentioning, my past is unrecognizable, and the me outside this place has become nothing, vanishing in the dust of this world. Now, the me in front of you is just an old man who is about to die, so you can call me Old Man Mu."

"Senior Mu, can you answer one or two questions for me?"

When Mo Liushang heard what Li Mo said, he quickly bowed and said, "Then I will go down first. If you two have something to say, you can talk slowly. I will wait in front to prevent others from getting close."

Li Mo nodded, and actually liked Mo Liushang's knowledge and taste.

As expected, he is a criminal cultivator who broke the taboo of blood refining and yet was able to get the position of manager here.

When Mo Liushang reached the exit of the passage and saw no one in sight, the old man asked quietly, "What's your name?"

"Du Cang Peak Mu Li Mo."

"Mu...did you follow Mu Jianfei's surname?"

"Yes, Master has given me a surname, so I share the same surname as Senior Brother Mu Xuzhen."

"Well... Mu Jianfei is not that kind of person, but I never thought he would accept a female disciple."
