Immortality Through Array Formations Chapter 892

Chapter 892: Chapter 617 Gu Changhuai_2

Hua Qianqian was the daughter of a True Transmission Elder from Hundred Flower Valley, cherished and destined to become an Inner Gate disciple and receive the True Transmission of Hundred Flower Valley in the future.

But she didn't want others to gossip, preferring to rely on her own efforts to earn Merit Points and rise to become a True Disciple of the Inner Gate of Hundred Flower Valley.

These were things Mo Hua had gathered from conversations with Senior Sister Murong, combined with cases of fellow disciples, to deduce on her own.

She guessed that it was close to the mark.

After all, in the Qianxue State Boundary, with so many Sect Disciples around, who wouldn't want to earn Merit Points?

Shangguan Xu and Mo Hua were quite familiar with each other, he nodded and smiled in response to her.

Hua Qianqian also smiled coyly, greeting Mo Hua with sparkling eyes.

But Mo Hua always felt that Senior Sister Hua's gaze held a sliver of ill intent when she looked at her.

She wondered what was on her mind.

Seeing Mo Hua glance her way, Hua Qianqian's eyes sparkled even more brilliantly, revealing an extraordinary luster.

Feeling a sense of danger, Mo Hua swiftly moved closer to the side of Senior Sister Murong.

Murong Caiyun appeared resigned.

After everyone gathered, they began heading towards Canglang Mountain.

Canglang Mountain was not far from the Qianxue State Boundary, and the Fifth-grade Daoist Court, which oversaw the Qianxue State Boundary, was on the way to Canglang Mountain.

They also needed to visit the Daoist Court to confirm their identities, receive the reward mission, and incidentally inquire about clues regarding the deceased.

The clopping of horses' hooves marked the passing of over an hour, and they arrived at the Daoist Court.

Mo Hua alighted from the carriage and looked up to see the imposing and majestic Court building, towering high with golden wings on the flying eaves, solemn and imposing.

It was like a great seal pressed into the mountains, dominating the entire Qianxue State Boundary.

Seven large characters were inscribed above: Qianxue State Boundary Daoist Court.

This was the Fifth-grade Daoist Court of the Qianxue State Boundary…

Mo Hua was immensely shaken within.

In front of such a grand and stern Daoist Court, Mo Hua felt like a fragile sapling at the foot of a mountain, vulnerable to the elements.

Ouyang Feng patted Mo Hua on the shoulder, speaking warmly,

“The majesty here, it's partly an act of grandstanding, you'll understand after a few visits…”

Mo Hua looked up in surprise, then realized,

“Formation?”

Ouyang Feng appeared somewhat astonished, then he chuckled and said,

“Correct, when this Daoist Court Hall was constructed, it was infused with a Formation that amplifies majesty. Thus, newcomers often feel insignificant and also come to believe…”

Ouyang Feng gestured upwards and whispered, “that the authority of the Daoist Court is grand and inviolable…”

“So it's like that…”

Mo Hua nodded.

Having learned of this trick, her reverence was somewhat diminished, and following Murong Caiyun into the building, she felt even more disappointed.

From the outside, this Daoist Court indeed appeared most august.

But from the inside, it seemed overstaffed and complicated, with an air of stagnation.

Furthermore, most of the Enforcement Leaders and Supervisors wore stern expressions, speaking rigidly with a hint of looking down upon others.

Unpleasant faces, harsh words.

If they were Third or Fourth Grade, it might be tolerable.

But to see these minor Second Grade Enforcement Leaders also putting on airs of self-importance was preposterous.

Occasionally, there were wielders of the Daoist Court, conduct sharp, eyes keen, with profound Cultivation, that appeared extremely capable, yet they were few and far between, and seemed out of place with the overall atmosphere of the Daoist Court.

Mo Hua wanted to ask something, but considering walls have ears, especially inside the Fifth-grade Daoist Court with so many Great Cultivators around, her words could easily be overheard, so she refrained from asking.

Murong Caiyun led the way, verifying their identities, receiving the reward mission, and also obtaining some files to complete the formalities.

As a noble family's son and a disciple of Taixu Gate, with exceptional looks and talent, the Cultivators of the Daoist Court were quite courteous to her.

The entire experience had not involved any cold treatment or difficulties.

“So they judge a person by their appearance…”

Mo Hua muttered to herself.

Just as they were about to leave, they were stopped by an Enforcement Leader who said, “Hold on, Supervisor Gu has instructions for you…”

Supervisor Gu?

Mo Hua blinked in surprise, her heart skipping a beat, could it be…

After a moment, a figure approached from a distance, and Mo Hua, catching a glimpse, thought to herself that it was indeed him…

The newcomer was handsome, dressed in a Canon's Daoist Robe from the Daoist Court, with a graceful and easy demeanor. His attitude was not arrogant, but his bearing exuded a trace of unruly pride.

It was Gu Changhuai, the young master of the Gu Family, whom Mo Hua had met several times before.

Gu Changhuai's voice was calm and composed, not without a touch of conceit,

“This matter is quite thorny, I wouldn't have wanted you disciples to take it on, and I notified the Daoist Court to withdraw the mission, only to find that you had already accepted it…”

“Procedures are procedures, there's nothing to be done since you've taken it on, but there are a few points I want to remind you of…”

Gu Changhuai walked and talked, hardly glancing at Murong Caiyun and the others, and those sharp eyes barely paying them heed.

Until the corner of his eye caught sight of Mo Hua…

Gu Changhuai clearly paused.

Mo Hua could even see Gu Changhuai blink, seemingly confirming whether he had mistaken her for someone else.

A face so naive and well-behaved, and such clear, profound eyes, there wouldn't be a second like her in the entire Qianxue State Boundary; he couldn't be wrong.

After a moment of silence, Gu Changhuai slowly said,

“Mo… Hua?”

“Uh-huh,” Mo Hua nodded repeatedly, politely responding, “Hello, Uncle Gu.”

Murong Caiyun looked taken aback, and the nearby Enforcement Leader clearly hadn't expected Mo Hua to know Gu Changhuai.

Gu Changhuai tried to control his emotions but still couldn't help asking Mo Hua,

“What are you doing here?”
