C190 Descent
Around the horse carriage, the Mo family came out in full strength, escorting the horse carriage away.
Amidst all the noise, Chen Yu could feel the thousands of Mo family members fervently hoping that Mo Shu, Mo Jie, and the others would pass through the City Battle Trial s and become Ruling Spirit Sect disciples.
For a family of practitioners in the secular world, having a Ruling Spirit Sect disciple in the clan was of no small importance. It represented the hope for the clan to become even more prosperous.
The Mo Family did have two clansmen at the Ruling Spirit Sect, and because of this, the Mo Family suppressed one of the Yuan Family. However, no clan would complain about having too many clan members. If more clansmen could enter the Ruling Spirit Sect, the Mo family would undoubtedly become stronger!
Chen Yu felt this atmosphere and remembered the Minglan City.
Presumably, the atmosphere of the Minglan City was even more scorching now, for all the great clans must have had even more desire and yearning for the disciples who were participating in the City Battle Trial s. After all, it had been more than ten years since a Ruling Spirit Sect disciple appeared.
It was just that he did not know who the ten spots on Minglan City would belong to in the end. I wonder if Jun Che, who has a good relationship with me, has gotten a spot!
Twenty minutes later, the carriage entered the plaza of Donwu City City.
Most of the Mo family members stopped at the edge of the square, blocked by Mo Huai, Mo Zhan, and other warriors who were maintaining order.
Chen Yu jumped down from the carriage. The upper echelons of the Mo family, Mo Zhen, Mo Qing and the others had already tightly surrounded the carriage. Each of them looked both happy and worried.
"Shu'er, after the selection begins, you must be careful. You must remember, it's alright if you don't pass. You still have a chance, you must ensure your safety." Mo Shu, who had stepped out of the car before Chen Yu, was pulled aside by Madam Mo and repeatedly warned.
Mo Jie, Mo Zhen, and Mo Qing were also being pulled along by their families, repeatedly exhorting them.
Chen Yu, on the other hand, was alone.
Chen Yu didn't care and looked towards the center of the square. Over there, two large groups of people had already gathered. The situation was the same as over here, however, Yuan Family and people of the Lin Family had already arrived a step earlier.
The City Battle Trial of the Ruling Spirit Sect had already held this long time for three thousand years, and had its own statute.
"Mo Daorong, you finally came. I thought the Mo family wasn't planning to participate in this time's City Battle Trial!" Liu Tie heard the voice and looked over. He saw the Patriarch of Yuan Family, Yuen Qingcheng, walking towards Mo Daorong.
Beside Yuen Qingcheng, there was a young man who was around twenty-four or twenty-five years old. He was tall and straight, had starry eyes and sharp sword-like eyebrows. Standing beside Yuen Qingcheng who was at the third level of Spirit Accumulation Stage, he actually wasn't concealed by Yuen Qingcheng's powerful aura in the slightest.
This person was clearly Yuan Family's Yuen Zhou!
Mo Daorong was staring at his wife and daughter. Hearing Yuen Qingcheng's ridicule, his face showed a trace of dissatisfaction, he turned around and laughed, "As long as I arrive before the arrival of the Emissary, I don't have to delay any longer. Don't tell me that you're like some people, just foolishly waiting here?"
"Mo Daorong, how did you know that the envoy wouldn't arrive early?" Yuen Qingcheng coldly snorted and said: "Your luck is not bad this time. Otherwise, if you are late compared to the Ruling Spirit Sect's chief envoy, I will let you see!"
"Haha, what's so good about it?" Mo Daorong shrugged and said, "At most, I'll apologize and ask for your forgiveness. Not everyone is as narrow-minded as you, Yuen Qingcheng!"
"You …" Yuen Qingcheng didn't expect that Mo Daorong would attack him with such a simple sentence. He couldn't help but feel stuffy.
"Father, why do you have to lower yourself to the level of the Mo family head?" Yuen Zhou spoke up, his voice was as clear and striking as his body, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, unable to conceal a faint arrogance, and said: "City Battle Trial, you have to rely on your own strength to speak. Mo Family Head should know that they do not have much hope this time, which is why they are unwilling to suffer a loss on the surface! "
Mo Daorong's expression turned serious as he reprimanded, "You uncultured thing, why would a junior like you interfere when I'm talking to your father?" Yuen Qingcheng, you don't even know how to teach your son.
This reprimand attracted the attention of all the Mo Family clansmen.
"Mo Daorong, it's not your turn to teach my son a lesson!" Yuen Qingcheng couldn't hold back his anger anymore as he was taught a lesson in front of his son.
On the other hand, Yuen Zhou's expression was slightly twisted. After a flash of hostility passed through his eyes, his expression returned to being calm, showing that he was suffering from a mental illness that did not fit his age.
"Mo Daorong, you have guts. You even dared to send your daughter to participate in the City Battle Trial at this age!" Another voice sounded somewhat sinister and cold.
The one who came was Lin Juzhen. Behind Lin Juzhen was a young warrior who was about 24 years old. He was tall and exuded a sharp and powerful aura.
He did not know who this person was, but he could guess that this person should be Lin Juzhen's nephew. Amongst the people participating in the City Battle Trial this time, the strongest was Lin Zeyi.
Lin Zeyi could be considered an influential figure in the younger generation in Donwu City, as well as being in the fifth level of Heavenly Astral Stage. However, in Chen Yu's eyes, Lin Zeyi's strength was not as good as Yuen Zhou's.
"Let's try our luck!" Mo Daorong looked at Lin Juzhen and said indifferently: "For a young man like you with weak Lin Family, daring to send you to participate in the City Battle Trial, my daughter can naturally go as well!"
"Is that so?" Lin Juzhen said coldly, "Aren't you afraid of losing a girl after coming here for so long? Do you think that your daughter will always be able to rely on luck to get by? "
"Haha, luck is also a type of strength!" Mo Daorong's expression was normal, but a trace of worry still flashed deep within his eyes. He said: "It's because she returned safely from the secret realm that I let her try out the City Battle Trial!"
"I'm afraid you'll regret it!" Yuen Qingcheng said coldly.
"That's none of your business!" Mo Daorong said.
"Then let's wait and see!" Yuen Qingcheng and Lin Juzhen didn't have the mood to argue with Mo Daorong here. After Liu Tie said this, they turned around and walked towards their family's location.
However, before they left, their cold gazes swept past Chen Yu in the crowd. They couldn't hide the killing intent in their eyes.
Chen Yu only smiled at their cold gazes and didn't take it to heart.
Right at this moment, a faint screech sounded from the horizon. The sound was far away, but it contained an overflowing amount of power.
Everyone turned their heads to look at the sky.
In the blink of an eye, the cry of the bird became audible. A black dot in the sky to the west grew larger as it flew towards them.
In the center of the square, the young martial artists that were receiving their family's encouragement and advice had expressions of excitement and anticipation.
The higher-ups of the three great families, as well as those who had bid farewell to their children, all had complicated expressions on their faces. Some of the women even cried.
The crowd gathered outside the square also started to boil, and the noise resounded through the entire square's perimeter.
"Cloud Acrossing Goose?" Chen Yu also raised his head and looked to the west. He was gradually able to see the black shadow that was flying over.
With a huge body and a speed as fast as lightning, Chen Yu recognized that it was a Stage Nine Demon Bird.
Although it was a top-level Demonic Beast, its nature was docile. It was one of the most common Demon Bird in the sect.
Mo Shu, Mo Jie, and the others stretched their necks to look at him. Their expressions were filled with excitement and expectation.
"Chen Yu!" At that moment, Mo Daorong's voice entered Ye Zichen's ears.
Chen Yu turned around and saw Mo Daorong had arrived beside him.
In the sky, the Cloud Acrossing Goose was getting closer and closer. A fierce and powerful aura enveloped the area, causing many people to pale in fear.
"Uncle Mo!"
"Taking advantage of the envoy's imminent arrival, I have a request for you!" Mo Daorong said.
"Uncle, please tell me. As long as this nephew can do it, I'll do my best!" Chen Yu's heart was slightly cold as he said in a deep voice.
In fact, Chen Yu could more or less guess what Mo Daorong was going to say next.
"If Mo Shu is with you, you must protect her well. No matter the cost, you must not let anything happen to her!" Mo Daorong's expression was serious and his gaze was sharp like a knife as he said, "You swear to me that as long as Mo Shu is by your side, no matter how dangerous it is, you must ensure her safety!"
This request shocked Chen Yu.
"Swish" The Cloud Acrossing Goose had already reached the range of its Donwu City and its sharp voice seemed to want to prick a person's eardrums.
The aura emitted by a top-grade Vicious Beast was even stronger than that of warriors at the peak of Heavenly Astral Stage.
"After entering the secret realm where the City Battle Trial are held, the practitioners of Yuan Family and Lin Family will deal with you. The first thing you should do is to escape and wait for Mo Shu and the others to reunite with you!" Mo Daorong said in a deep voice, "During the half a year of the exam, you have to protect her well. Otherwise, even if you have already become an inner disciple of the Ruling Spirit Sect, I will destroy you at all costs! "
Chen Yu smiled bitterly. After his expression changed a few times, he gritted his teeth and said, "Uncle Mo, please forgive me for not being able to make a promise!"
"Hmm?" Mo Daorong's expression turned grim as a trace of cold and dangerous intent flashed across his eyes.
"Mo Shu is my friend, so I'll naturally do my best to help her!" Chen Yu said with an unperturbed expression, "Even if Uncle Mo didn't say this, I will remember it in my heart. However, Uncle should be clear about the cruelty of City Battle Trial. "There is no such thing as absolute. I cannot promise or swear on such a thing!"
Mo Daorong fell silent when he heard that.
"Besides, it might not be safer for Mo Shu to be by my side than for her to be with Mo Jie and the others!" Chen Yu continued, "I can only say that I will do my best to help you look after Mo Shu. If I know that she is in danger, I will also rush over to help immediately. I can't promise you anything else, and I can't swear to it! "
Mo Daorong's expression changed several times.
As Mo Daorong's expression changed, Chen Yu's heart tensed up. Before climbing onto the Cloud Acrossing Goose, Mo Daorong still had the right to take back Chen Yu's position and replace him with someone else from the Mo Family. Chen Yu's fate was still in Mo Daorong's hands.
"Forget it, I've taken it for granted!" Mo Daorong's expression changed several times and a hint of regret flashed across his eyes.
As a father, Mo Daorong obviously couldn't keep his calm at this time. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked Chen Yu to guarantee Chen Yu's safety.
However, he was not an ordinary person. After exhaling a long breath, he cupped his hands towards Chen Yu and said, "Then please take care of Mo Shu, just like how you took care of her in that secret realm a month ago!"
"I will do my best!" Chen Yu nodded seriously and did not return the greeting. Receiving Mo Daorong's bow showed that he had made this promise.
While they were talking, the small mountain like Cloud Acrossing Goose descended towards the plaza. Its pair of giant wings were trembling as it flew in all directions.
Bang! Only after landing completely did the Cloud Acrossing Goose's wings retract after hitting the ground. The place where it landed immediately shattered and formed two holes of neither large nor small size.
A figure was standing on top of the Cloud Acrossing Goose s. The indifferent gaze of the figure examined everyone in the plaza, and it was obvious that it had an air of haughtiness and haughtiness.
