No hope for eternal life

Chapter 233 Returning Hometown

Even Yang Wuque looked helpless. He gave Mu Changsheng a helpless look and turned away.

Taoist Master An was very satisfied when she saw this, and immediately took Mu Changsheng to Duzhao Peak.

Taoist Master Xi is in charge of all the large formations of Lingshan Sect. It can be said that the vast territory of Lingshan Sect is her territory. Mu Changsheng was forcibly taken to Duzhao Peak by Taoist Master Xi and he had no power to resist at all.

When they arrived at Duzhao Peak, Taoist Master Nan waved her hand, and the Duzhao Peak, which was originally covered with lush vegetation, instantly became bare. At the same time, two caves were opened up in the front and back of the halfway point of the Duzhao Peak.

"How about it? This cave is nice, right? I know you want to plant spiritual herbs and grains on the mountain, so I have cleared all the weeds and trees for you. There are two caves. Your parents can live in the back one, and we will live in the front one. It's arranged perfectly." Taoist Master An said proudly.

Hearing the first half of the sentence, Mu Changsheng nodded, but when he heard the second half, his face froze: "I...we?"

"Yes." Taoist Master said excitedly: "You deliberately chose a mountain that is close to my Lingzhen Peak. Isn't it just because you want to get closer to me? There is nothing to be shy about."

Mu Changsheng was overwhelmed after hearing this. He didn't expect that the Duzhao Peak he chose was right next to Taoist Master's Lingzhen Peak. Now he finally understood why Xia Rong had such a strange expression when she heard him choose Duzhao Peak.

"Senior, you have misunderstood. I did not intend to be next to Lingzhen Peak. It was just a coincidence." Mu Changsheng explained haltingly.

"Did I really misunderstand?" Taoist Master looked at Mu Changsheng eagerly, and I felt pity for him. Then she smiled and said, "Doesn't this just prove that we are destined to meet each other after thousands of miles apart?"

"I really misunderstood." Mu Changsheng said firmly, and then thanked him: "But no matter what, I still want to thank you for helping me remove the weeds and trees and open up the cave, which saved me a lot of effort."

"So, you really like Lin Yu and not me?" Taoist Shi'an continued to ask pitifully.

Mu Changsheng said carefully: "My disciple is devoted to the Dao, and I dare not consider personal feelings too early. I hope you can forgive me."

"That's all." Taoist Master turned around and smiled happily, "This shows that I still have a chance, right? If you want to practice Taoism, I can help you. I know that in addition to body training and talisman training, you also practice formation training. I am good at formation training, so I can help you."

As she spoke, Taoist Master An snapped her fingers, and the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth immediately poured into Duzhao Peak, greatly increasing the spiritual energy concentration of Duzhao Peak.

"This is a seventh-grade spirit gathering formation, which has covered the entire Duzhao Peak. Other disciples do not have this treatment." Taoist Master explained.

Mu Changsheng gave a bitter smile. He felt that it would be difficult for him to live peacefully in Duzhao Peak in the future. However, if he asked to move to another mountain now, it would undoubtedly offend Taoist Master Xi. He was in a dilemma.

Then, Mu Changsheng asked with some concern: "Will this spirit gathering formation absorb the spiritual power from other brothers and sisters on the mountain peaks?"

Taoist Master rolled her eyes at Mu Changsheng and said angrily, "Do you think I'm stupid? There are 100,000 peaks in Lingshan Sect, but less than 300 of them are owned. You can just transfer some spiritual power from the unowned peaks and it will be enough for you to use."

"Okay." Mu Changsheng dispelled his worries.

Taoist Shi-nan then leaned close to Mu Changsheng again, stroked his chest with her fingers, and said in a sweet voice: "I have done so much for you, shouldn't you thank me?"

Mu Changsheng's heart beat faster, but fortunately the formation spirit was just a formation spirit and had no entity. Even when a finger pierced through his chest he didn't feel anything, otherwise who could withstand this?

Then, Mu Changsheng took a few steps back, distanced himself from him, and asked with a light cough, "Senior, you have indeed helped me a lot. How can I thank you?"

Taoist Master smiled and said, "I want to invite you to enter the fantasy world and spend a good night with me. What do you think?"

After saying this, Mu Changsheng, who was originally in Duzhao Peak, suddenly felt dizzy and came to a bridal chamber, where he found himself wearing a groom's robe.

Taoist Master was wearing a phoenix coronet and bridal robe, and with a blush on her face, she pressed against Mu Changsheng's chest.

"This is an illusion." Mu Changsheng immediately realized that he had been pulled into an illusion by Taoist Master.

Although it was an illusion, the feeling of the beauty in his arms was so real that Mu Changsheng's heart was moved.

But the next moment, Mu Changsheng pushed Taoist Master An away, took several steps back, and said with an unpleasant expression: "Senior, please don't make such jokes again, and don't drag me into the illusion without your permission, otherwise don't blame me for running to the elders and the sect master to complain."

Mu Changsheng was so angry, on the one hand, because he already had a psychological trauma from the illusion, and on the other hand, because the feelings in the illusion were too real, so real that it was scary, so he didn't dare to stay in the illusion for a long time, so as not to confuse reality with illusion.

Taoist Master saw that Mu Changsheng was really angry, so she quickly comforted him and said, "Okay, okay, I was just joking with you, but you are really angry."

As she spoke, Taoist Master Xian had already brought Mu Changsheng out of the illusion and returned to Duzhao Peak.

Mu Changsheng didn't want to say anything more now, so he said goodbye and said, "I have to go home to pick up my parents. Bye."

"No problem. I'll give you a ride." Taoist Master Xian teleported with Mu Changsheng and instantly arrived at the Ferry Peak inside Lingshan Sect. Not long after, a ferry heading south to Shenfeng Kingdom arrived, and Mu Changsheng left on the ferry.

After Mu Changsheng left, Taoist Master looked at him reluctantly and murmured to herself: "If I were not a formation spirit, would you like me?"

At this moment, Xiao Niansheng suddenly appeared beside Taoist Master and asked: "Do you really like this Mu Changsheng that much?"

Taoist Master An looked at Xiao Niansheng with resentment on her face, and said quietly: "Master, you and You Hengzu have been Taoist companions for thousands of years, so naturally a full man does not know the hunger of a hungry man."

"Is that what I'm asking?" Xiao Niansheng laughed dumbly and said, "What I'm asking is what exactly do you like about Mu Changsheng?"

"Since he was able to pass the entrance test, his character is naturally impeccable. I have also read his memories and know his arrogance and ambitions. No one understands him better than me. I just like him." Zhen Ling said with a longing look on her face, like a young girl in love.

"But, I've heard similar words three times, and this is the fourth time." Xiao Niansheng said helplessly. The reason why Wang Tianhua specifically warned Mu Changsheng before was because such things had happened more than once, but in the end they all ended in a bad mood because of the special nature of the formation spirit.

After all, an array spirit is just an array spirit. Even if it has the same thinking as humans, it is not a human after all and cannot give birth to children. Even the range of activities of the array spirit is limited to Lingshan Sect and the surrounding territories. These are fatal flaws.

"I will definitely not make a mistake in choosing the right person this time. He is definitely different from those guys before." Taoist Shi'an said firmly.

"Okay." Xiao Niansheng said helplessly, and changed his strategy to persuade him: "I don't object to you pursuing Mu Changsheng, but you have to set three rules, you can't interfere with his normal practice, etc."

"Also, although it's easy for a girl to chase a boy, if you keep pressing him like that, it will only scare him away. You should proceed step by step, and know when to advance and retreat. That's the only way to last long."

"Master, you are right." Dao Shi'an's eyes lit up when she heard this. She nodded repeatedly, then smiled and said, "Please teach me more of your experience. But then again, it wasn't you who pursued You Hengzu back then, was it?"

……

A few days later, Mu Changsheng rushed back to Qingliu Town. When he passed by the sword-making shop, he did not see Mo Lianyue, so he asked Mu Qunxian: "Is Aunt Mo here?"
