After Ji Xiuzhu left his yard, he did not go anywhere else, but went directly to Qingfeng Cliff.

On the Qingfeng Cliff,

Ji Xiuzhu leaned on the big rock where she often lay, overlooking the now bustling Shenyin Sect, and felt as if she was in another world.

It’s obviously the same place, but the scenery is different.

Ji Xiuzhu gazed quietly into the distance, recalling every little thing that had happened here.

The breeze blew her hair and blew away some of her worries.

Suddenly, she noticed someone approaching. She stood up and turned to look. The person was actually the prodigy of Qingyun Sect, Mu Lan Ze.

Mu Lan Ze didn't expect that even though he had concealed his aura, he was still caught red-handed by Ji Xiuzhu.

He looked the same as usual, waving his folding fan, which symbolized his elegance, as he walked forward step by step, his eyes revealing a hint of complex emotions.

"Is it you? Why don't you stay in your Qingyun Sect and come to my Shenyin Sect?" Ji Xiuzhu's voice was calm, without much emotion.

Hearing this, Mu Lan Ze couldn't help biting his lip and whispered, "If I say I just happened to pass by, would Sect Master Ji believe me?"

Ji Xiuzhu did not respond, but turned his head and lay on his side, continuing to look at the scenery under Qingfeng Cliff.

The two of them stood on the Qingfeng Cliff in silence, no one spoke, but each of them was happy.

It was unknown how long the two of them remained stiff like this. Mu Lan Ze felt that he could not stand anymore, so he found an empty space at Ji Xiuzhu's feet and sat down.

Mu Lan Ze looked at Ji Xiuzhu's profile and couldn't help but be a little dazed.

Because Ji Xiuzhu's face was exactly the same as the one he had seen before, and even looked a little younger than when he first met him.

He took a deep breath, calmed himself, and said, "Sect Master Ji, actually... my visit this time is not accidental. I came here specifically to see you."

After hearing this, Ji Xiuzhu finally turned his head mechanically and looked at him without any surprise in his eyes.

Mu Lanze continued, "Since you and Brother Mo went to the Far North, I have been waiting here every day. I thought it would take at least ten years for you to return..."

Ji Xiuzhu's expression slightly changed, and then she regained her composure. She said calmly, "I don't know when my Shenyin Sect became a place where people can come and go at will?"

Mu Lan Ze was slightly stunned, then hurriedly said: "Don't get me wrong! I asked your sect's great elder for permission when I came here! I am not trespassing, and I don't have any ulterior motives!"

Ji Xiuzhu interrupted him: "Mu Lanze, you'd better not come to my Shenyin Sect anymore. Otherwise, if your master finds out, he will definitely break your legs. My Shenyin Sect is not a good place. I'm afraid it will lead you astray."

Ji Xiuzhu originally wanted to choke the person away, but who knew that the next second, Mu Lanze said something shocking.

"I'm not afraid!" Mu Lanze stood up anxiously, "Since I'm here today, I have no intention of going back! Sect Master Ji, why don't you annex our Qingyun Sect?"

Ji Xiuzhu's expression remained unchanged, but a ripple appeared in his heart.

What do you mean?

Let her cause trouble blatantly?

She looked at Mu Lanze and said slowly, "Your brain is not hot, right? Does your master know that you are so filial?"

Mu Lanze said firmly: "I'm not kidding, I'm serious. Besides, if Master knew that you wanted to merge the clans, he would definitely agree."

Ji Xiuzhu didn't understand, but she was shocked: "What do you mean? Is old man Xuanye getting senile? Will he give the sect to me?"

Ji Xiuzhu looked at Mu Lanze, trying to find a hint of joking on his face, but his expression was extremely serious.

"Your Qingyun Sect is a great sect in the world. Why would you want to be annexed by my broken sect that has been in decline for many years?" Ji Xiuzhu asked puzzledly.

Mu Lanze took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind: "Now that things have come to this, I will no longer hide it from you. Do you know the road to heaven?"

Ji Xiuzhu was stunned. She had never thought that Mu Lan Ze would say the Road to Heaven.

For a moment, she didn't know how to respond.

Seeing her silence, Mu Lan Ze continued, "Sect Master Ji, I'm sure you've noticed that the Tianyuan Continent has not been peaceful recently. Various forces have been rising secretly, and the exiled immortals from the Far North have also appeared one after another..."

"Exiled immortal?" Ji Xiuzhu was shocked. She had heard about it these days and it had spread among the disciples.

But she just thought it was the woman wearing a golden crown in the Far North, so she didn't think much about it.

Unexpectedly, in addition to the drunken immortal Tushan Miao and the woman with the golden crown, there are other exiled immortals!

Mu Lanze nodded and said in a serious tone: "That's right. As far as I know, this time the exiled immortal comes into the world, it will definitely cause a great uproar. Although our Qingyun Sect is a big sect, it is difficult for it to remain immune. Sect Master Ji, your Shenyin Sect was once a big sect in ancient times. If our two sects unite, there may be a glimmer of hope."

He was afraid that Ji Xiuzhu would not believe him, so he added: "This is not Lan Ze's words, but the meaning of my master!"

Ji Xiuzhu listened to Mu Lan Ze's words and thought secretly in his heart.

She did not suspect that Mu Lan Ze was lying. After all, according to Mu Lan Ze's character in the original work, he would not dare to say that without Xuanye's instructions.

After thinking for a moment, Ji Xiuzhu came up with an idea.

Indeed, the current situation in Tianyuan Continent is unclear, and all the major forces are ready to make a move. If Shenyin Sect can join forces with Qingyun Sect, its strength will surely increase greatly.

Although it cannot be said that they are invincible, they can still preserve the foundations of the two sects.

However, if he really is a banished immortal, she would be powerless to stop him even if she wanted to.

She alone cannot protect a group of people.

Moreover, she had seen the strength of the True Immortal.

Even now, she still feels a chill down her spine whenever she thinks of the woman with the golden crown.

"You are right." Ji Xiuzhu nodded slightly to show his agreement. "However, regarding the cooperation, I still need some time to think about it. After all, this matter is of great importance. I need to discuss it with the elders in the sect."

Seeing how cautious she was, Mu Lan Ze didn't say anything more.

After all, he could see that Ji Xiuzhu was making an excuse.

Everyone knows that her Shenyin Sect has only one elder, Fu Xiuming.

However, Mu Lan Ze was a lowly person with little influence and did not dare to act rashly.

"Alright. I hope Sect Master Ji can give me a reply as soon as possible."

"Well, I will keep this in mind." Ji Xiuzhu paused, then looked at Mu Lanze, "But before that, I would like to know what your Qingyun Sect has planned for the exiled immortal to enter the world?"

Mu Lanze said with a firm look in his eyes: "Of course, our Qingyun Sect will not sit idly by. My master has ordered us to fully investigate the purpose of the exiled immortal's entry into the world and the conspiracy behind it. At the same time, we will also strengthen the sect's defense to deal with the possible crisis."

Ji Xiuzhu nodded, expressing his satisfaction.

"That's great. However, the strength of our two sects alone may not be enough. My suggestion, just a suggestion, is to let Xuanye find more Mahayana cultivators to form an alliance."

Mu Lan Ze thought for a moment and felt that what Ji Xiuzhu said made sense.

But the Mahayana realm is not like sesame seeds all over the ground that you can pick up just by saying so!
