Whoosh! Whoosh! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, several people flew into the air from the Cabinet landmass and began to fight fiercely.
"What's going on? Weren't the Heart Demon Emperor's men supposed to have been driven away? Why are they still fighting?"
Chen Mu was startled by the scene in the distance. Without caring that it would attract the attention of the protective formation here, he quickly stepped on the ground and flew rapidly towards the inner cabinet.
Above the main hall of the inner cabinet, three men dressed in long robes with golden patterns exuded a powerful aura, forcing several elders of the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion to retreat step by step, displaying unparalleled domineering power.
They all had handsome appearances, with distinct facial features and a striking red dot between their eyebrows. Their temperament was ethereal and otherworldly, as if they were not ordinary people.
" Yang Huiming, are you not afraid that the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion will be destroyed because of your stubbornness?"
The man in the golden robe who was in the lead glared at them coldly, his eyes showing obvious impatience.
"Hmph! What does our destruction have to do with your Heavenly Court?"
Yan Tengzhi, I am only willing to see you today out of respect for Master Yan!
Don't push your luck! You're being ungrateful!
Elder Ming did not personally intervene, but instead watched the battle in the air from below, his face filled with Sha Qi.
"Fine! Since you won't listen to reason, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Yan Tengzhi was furious upon hearing this and ordered his men to speed up the attack.
He and his two subordinates were both Celestial Person Race from the Heavenly Realm, tasked with helping the Haotian Imperial Family resist the invasion of the Otherworldly Demon.
His purpose in coming to the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion was to persuade the remaining elders of the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion to submit to the Heavenly Court. They wanted to turn Heaven-Questioning Pavilion into an affiliated academy of the Heavenly Court and completely control Heaven-Questioning Pavilion.
The situation at the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion is dire; without further support, they certainly won't last more than six months.
Therefore, he was very confident, believing that with the strength of the Heavenly Court, this mission would be very easy.
Unexpectedly, after he arrived and explained his purpose, he was driven away by Elder Ming and the other elders.
As a member of the Celestial Person Race, he always held himself in high esteem and could not tolerate such humiliation, so he attacked and fought with the elders.
"Stubborn fools! Do you really think I can't handle you?"
Seeing that Yan Tengzhi was going too far, Elder Ming also became angry, and runes began to appear on his hands.
Although Heaven-Questioning Pavilion was founded by Yang Wentian, it was later supported and expanded by Yan Xue, the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Court. Therefore, the relationship between the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion and the Heavenly Court has always been complicated.
Yan Tengzhi's Yan Family in the Heavenly Realm is Yan Xue's father's family, which is why Elder Ming allowed him to enter the Inner Cabinet. However, he did not expect Yan Tengzhi to make such an outrageous suggestion, which made Elder Ming extremely angry.
Clang! Thump thump thump!
Yan Tengzhi and his two companions suddenly felt a chill run down their spines, as an extremely dangerous aura locked onto them.
This force is extremely powerful; if one were to withstand such an attack, even if they didn't die, they would at least be severely injured.
" Yang Huiming, how dare you!"
Yan Tengzhi finally panicked; he didn't want to be killed here for no reason.
"Get out of here!"
Elder Ming glared at the three men, his eyes filled with undisguised murderous intent.
"Good! Good! Good! Remember your choice today, and don't come begging to me in the future!"
Yan Tengzhi's face darkened. He glanced at the rune-inscribed giant cannon aimed at him from afar and finally gained a clear understanding of Elder Ming's strength, realizing that forcing him down this path was not an option.
"Let's go!"
He turned around and left Heaven-Questioning Pavilion with his two subordinates, filled with resentment.
"Sect Master! It's certainly satisfying to drive them away, but what about the Otherworldly Demon army outside? Are we really going to sit here and wait to die?"
As the figures of the Heavenly Court figures receded into the distance, several elders showed expressions of worry.
"When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it!"
I refuse to believe that without the Heavenly Court's help, our Heaven-Questioning Pavilion can't survive!
Elder Ming snorted coldly, revealing a disdainful expression.
"Master, if there are no further instructions, we will take our leave!"
Among the many elders present, He Xiao was He Xiao seen, clearly indicating that he had survived the chaos caused by the Heart Demon Emperor.
He seemed unhappy, but dared not show it directly, and prepared to leave with several elders.
"Alright, you can leave now!"
Elder Ming glanced at He Xiao and said casually.
Just now, He Xiao voiced his support for surrendering to the Heavenly Court, but now the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion is controlled by Elder Ming Ming's faction, and their small group hasn't caused any trouble.
In the past, Elder Ming would have severely punished He Xiao as a warning to others.
But after taking control of the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion, he realized that managing such a large academy was far more complex than he had imagined. He Xiao had He Xiao reasons, and the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion was currently in need of personnel, so it was not appropriate to punish people arbitrarily.
"Someone's here! Who is it?"
It was at this moment that Elder Ming sensed through the Myriad Phenomena Disk that someone had entered the inner cabinet area from the outer cabinet.
"Master!"
Elder Ming looked up, a man in a green robe descended from the sky; this man was none other than Chen Mu.
As he approached the cabinet area, he noticed that the outsiders who had caused the disturbance had turned and left, which put his mind at ease.
Now that he was here, he didn't bother to hide anything and flew down directly to meet Elder Ming.
"This is... Chen Mu?"
"It really is Chen Mu. Why is he back?"
Chen Mu's appearance caused a great deal of discussion among the elders. Some were amazed by Chen Mu's speed of progress, as he had broken through to the Core Formation Realm so quickly, while most were speculating about the purpose of his return.
After all, he had been expelled from the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion. Those who didn't know him would find it hard to tell whether he wanted to come back for revenge or to help the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion.
"Let's go! Let's talk in the room!"
When Elder Ming saw Chen Mu, he didn't seem very surprised, because they had already communicated using the communication jade token and knew that Chen Mu would find some time to come and talk to him in detail soon.
The cabinet is even more lively than before. All the reclusive elders have come out, and many outer cabinet disciples have been summoned to live in the inner cabinet. After all, at this point, any increase in their strength is beneficial.
Elder Ming led Chen Mu through the bustling crowd and back to the room where he was staying.
Before her death, Ding Danxi passed the position of Pavilion Master to Elder Ming, but Elder Ming did not agree.
He felt that his personality was not suitable to be the Pavilion Master, so he only agreed to temporarily assume the position. Once the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion was stable, he would choose a new Pavilion Master to inherit the position.
" Chen Mu, I'm so glad you're back here!"
Elder Ming and Chen Mu sat facing each other, their smiles genuine.
"Master, there's no need to say that. I've never hated the sect. Besides, it was you who saved me in the first place."
Chen Mu shook his head, not wanting to delve deeper into the topic.
"Master, who were those who attacked you just now? They all seemed quite strong!"
Although Chen Mu hadn't heard their conversation, he had witnessed the entire battle.
He discovered that the three men in golden robes were at least at the Creation Realm level. Sending out three experts at the Creation Realm at once was a rare feat in the entire Pan Emperor Continent.
