Chapter 1539: Chapter 821: Sneak Attack (Part 2) Is it because the Gui Water Sect discovered our ulterior motives? Or has Water Yama become more vigilant due to previous events? Or perhaps for other reasons? Mo Hua pondered for a moment, found no clues, and said, "Let’s head back first." This is Gui Water City, considered the territory of the Gui Water Sect, and staying here too long made Mo Hua feel uneasy. "Alright." Hao Xuan and the others nodded. Leaving the teahouse, they hired a carriage and drove from Gui Water City towards the Taixu Sect. Sitting in the carriage, Mo Hua continued to contemplate the affairs of the Gui Water Sect. The carriage passed through the city gate of Gui Water City, leisurely moving forward on the broad road. Halfway there, Mo Hua, who was frowning and deep in thought, seemed to sense something, his expression changed, and he quickly lifted the curtain to look, his pupils contracting. In the distance, there was another carriage. The carriage was enclosed and lavishly decorated, embroidered with colorful flowers of various hues. A carriage from the Hundred Flower Valley! It seemed to have just exited Gui Water City, just like their carriage, moving one behind the other. Mo Hua’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately shouted: "Cheng Mo!" Cheng Mo, who was driving the carriage, turned his head. Mo Hua pointed at the "florid" carriage and said, "Follow that carriage." Cheng Mo was slightly taken aback but didn’t hesitate and drove the carriage to catch up. Mo Hua said, "Keep it low-key, don’t get noticed!" "Oh, okay." Only then did the big guy Cheng Mo pull the reins, slow down the carriage, and silently followed behind that "flower carriage." The carriage from the Hundred Flower Valley proceeded straight ahead. Mo Hua and the others, in their carriage, discreetly followed, passing through Tai Xu City, then Tai’a City, circled around a few times, and eventually arrived at Hundred Flowers City. The flower carriage, exuding a faint fragrance, drove into Hundred Flowers City. Seeing this, Cheng Mo asked, "Junior Brother, should we enter the city?" Mo Hua thought for a moment and said, "Leave the carriage, we go in on foot." Cheng Mo nodded. After leaving the carriage outside Hundred Flowers City, they entered the city on foot. Fortunately, the carriage they were following was not moving fast, so Mo Hua and the others managed to catch up. They continued following until the carriage reached the Mountain Gate of Hundred Flower Valley. The door of the carriage opened, and four or five women, each wearing the Taoist Robe of Hundred Flower Valley and possessing exquisite beauty, each with their own merits, entered the Hundred Flower Valley together. They chatted and laughed along the way, but their subtle expressions were a bit nuanced. Some appeared normal, some seemed downcast, some silently let out a sigh of relief, while others had dim eyes and expressionless faces. Mo Hua furrowed his brow. "No Hua Ruyu?" He had thought Hua Ruyu would be in the carriage as well. He then concentrated and memorized the appearance of the female cultivators who stepped out of the carriage before silently sighing inwardly. It seems the matters of the Hundred Flower Valley are far from over... Beside him, Hao Xuan, seeing Mo Hua squatting in the bushes with eyes fixed keenly on the female cultivators of the Hundred Flower Valley, couldn’t help but remind: "Junior Brother, you better not be like my cousin?" Mo Hua was taken aback. Hao Xuan pointed towards the Hundred Flower Valley, "You’ll get beaten up, badly." Mainly, it’s embarrassing. His cousin, Hao Se, had a thick skin since childhood, so it didn’t matter much to him. But Mo Hua, being the Junior Brother among these Taixu Sect Disciples, couldn’t afford to lose face like that. "Don’t worry," Mo Hua waved his hand, "it’s not what you think, and I won’t be caught, anyhow." Hao Xuan thought of Mo Hua’s movement technique and Concealment Technique, and nodded, saying, "That’s true." To this day, he had never seen Junior Brother caught by anyone. Seeing the female cultivators who had been on the carriage, all entering the Hundred Flower Valley and disappearing among the vibrant flower bushes, Mo Hua then said: "Let’s head back." Even though Hao Xuan and the others didn’t know what Mo Hua was up to, they had gradually grown accustomed to it, trusting whatever Junior Brother said. However, on the way back, Cheng Mo couldn’t contain his curiosity and asked: "Junior Brother, why were you following that carriage?" "I’m investigating a case related to the Taoist Court," Mo Hua didn’t hide it, "but I can’t disclose the specifics right now." "Investigating a case?" Cheng Mo’s eyes lit up with interest, "Are there any merit points involved?" Mo Hua’s eyes shifted as he thought carefully and said, "There’s none from the Taoist Court, but if you help out, I’ll give you some myself." He was now a major holder of Merit Points, earning a considerable amount through Formation Painting, Monster Hunting, and reward commissions. During that time in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, Elder Master Xun had rewarded him with a large sum of merit points on behalf of the Sect. The Tai’a Sect and the Rushing Void Sect also gave him merit points as a token of appreciation. With so many merit points, he was initially excited, glancing at the Xun Token now and then, but as the excitement waned, over time, he found it less thrilling. He hardly checked the number of merit points now, as there were too many, more than he could ever use. Cheng Mo, knowing Mo Hua was a wealthy holder of merit points, didn’t hold back and said with a smile, "Thank you, Junior Brother, if you ever need anything, just let me know." Mo Hua nodded. Of course, concerning the matters of Gui Water Sect and Water Yama, it was complicated, and he wouldn’t let Cheng Mo and the others get deeply involved, just letting them do some minor tasks, errands, and gather information. A valiant warrior is supported by three mighty aides, learning to leverage resources is key. Going solo would inevitably lead to oversights. "This trip doesn’t seem to have yielded much," Situ Jian asked, "What should we do next? Should we head back to the Sect directly?" There were indeed some gains, but not significant ones. Mo Hua mused to himself. And they were merely "loose ends," requiring considerable effort to investigate further. Mo Hua pondered for a while, then his eyes sparkled as he turned to Hao Xuan and asked: "Hao Xuan, how’s your relationship with your childhood friend Wang Chen?" "We used to be close..." Hao Xuan felt a bit nervous, whispering, "Junior Brother, you won’t target him, will you?"
