"You also know very well what Elder Lu is like."

Xiao Mu raised his eyes coldly and glanced at the disciples, who immediately shut their mouths and said nothing more.

"Today, Elder Lu just went to talk to Zhou Ze about the Qingzhou Competition."

"Are you right?"

"Of course."

Zhou Ze agreed, "After all, Elder Lu is a very competent elder, unlike some people."

Xiao Mu, who heard the inner conflict in Zhou Ze's words, felt a chill in his eyes.

Everyone didn't understand what Zhou Ze meant by what he said. They just felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between the two.

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Zhou Ze, "I wish you can find some good treasures."

"Why does he speak so strangely?"

"I think so too."

After this small episode, Xiao Mu no longer had any interest in hunting for any treasures.

Throughout the whole process, his face was like an iceberg, without any smile.

When the disciples saw this, they didn't dare to breathe.

In all their years in Tianjian Sect, they have never seen Xiao Mu like this.

It could be seen that Zhou Ze really made Xiao Mu very angry.

…

"Is Zhou Ze here?"

At the inn, a man in black approached the waiter.

"Zhou Ze?"

The waiter was silent for a moment, and the figure of Zhou Ze appeared in his mind.

He nodded repeatedly, "He lives here with us, but we have no room here anymore. If you still want to make a decision, maybe..."

"Where is he now?" The man in black interrupted the waiter.

The waiter was stunned, "He must have gone out."

Hearing what the waiter said, the man in black turned around and planned to leave without saying a word.

The waiter thought the man in black was strange and muttered behind his back.

Unexpectedly, the man in black appeared in front of him again the next second, startling him.

"Where is his companion?"

The waiter pointed behind the man in black.

The man in black turned his head and saw Mo Xiu's figure.

"Are you looking for Zhou Ze?"

As soon as Mo Xiu came downstairs, he heard the noise here.

After staring at the man in black for a long time, Mo Xiu's eyes were full of vigilance.

Zhou Ze has become famous recently, and more and more people are coming to Zhou Ze. He must distinguish whether the person in front of him is a friend or an enemy.

"Where is Zhou Ze?" the man in black asked bluntly.

Mo Xiu shook his head, saying that he didn't know clearly.

The man in black immediately took action and grabbed Mo Xiu's neck, "I advise you to tell the truth."

Mo Xiu was so frightened that he wanted to use his spiritual power to resist, but found that the man in black's spiritual power was much stronger than his own.

In front of him, I was like an ant.

If such a strong person is looking for Zhou Ze, could he also be Zhou Ze's enemy?

"I really don't know."

Mo Xiu's face turned red from suppressing it, "He went out early in the morning and hasn't come back yet."

"If you want to find him, just wait here for a while."

After hearing this, the man in black rolled his eyes, as if he was thinking about whether what Mo Xiu said was the truth or a lie.

"You'd better hope what you say is true."

The man in black let go of Mo Xiu, who stood aside greedily breathing in the fresh air.

"How could I lie to you."

Mo Xiu, "However, I still have to ask clearly, who are you and why are you looking for Zhou Ze?"

"It's not your turn to ask this question yet."

The man in black turned around, sat at the table, and began to wait for Zhou Ze.

Mo Xiu stared at the back of the man in black for a long time.

Could such a powerful person be the Demon Lord?

It shouldn't be, the Demon Lord's eyes will definitely recognize him.

Then who could he be?

Mo Xiu thought about it for a long time but couldn't come up with a result. Finally, he decided to go out to find Zhou Ze and tell Zhou Ze the news in advance, so that he could still run away.

When the man in black wasn't paying attention, Mo Xiu ran away.

On the way, he happened to meet Xiao Mu and the Tianjian Sect disciples who were returning home.

Mo Xiu stepped forward and asked, "Have you met Zhou Ze? Where is he now?"

Mo Xiu noticed that when the word "Zhou Ze" was mentioned, there was something wrong with the expressions on everyone's faces.

"What's wrong?"

"fine."

Xiao Mu pointed a direction to Mo Xiu, "I just saw him going that way."

"Thank you!"

After saying these words, Mo Xiu moved forward quickly.

Looking at Mo Xiu's leaving figure, Xiao Mu fell into deep thought.

When Xiao Mu returned to the inn, the first thing he noticed was the man in black sitting at the table.

He thought again of Mo Xiu's anxious and worried expression just now, and felt that something was not right.

Xiao Mu asked the Tianjian Sect disciples to rest first, and then walked to the waiter, "Is the man in black sitting there also a guest here?"

"How come I haven't seen you in the past few days?"

"He is not a guest." Waiter, "He is here to see Zhou Ze."

"Looking at that, he shouldn't be someone to be trifled with."

After saying that, the waiter lowered his head again and was busy with what he was doing.

Looking for Zhou Ze?

Could it be that he is Zhou Ze's enemy?

Thinking about it, Xiao Mu stepped forward and walked in front of the man in black, "I am Xiao Mu, the Heavenly Sword Sect."

The man in black glanced at Xiao Mu but said nothing.

"May I ask if I'm here to look for Zhou Ze?" Xiao Mu, "But what did he commit that made you unhappy?"

"Zhou Ze has always been a very impatient person, and he is also very reckless on weekdays."

"If he really did something, I'm here to apologize to you."

Xiao Mu bowed to the man in black.

The man in black looked at Xiao Mu with eyes that gradually became more subtle, "Are you concerned about Zhou Ze?"

Xiao Mu chuckled lightly, "Zhou Ze is a disciple of my Heavenly Sword Sect, and I am the elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Naturally, I have to care about him."

"Yeah?"

The man in black said, "If I say that I am here to kill him, will you protect him?"

After Xiao Mu heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

Come to kill Zhou Ze?

He hesitated for a long time, "Well, may I ask why you want to attack Zhou Ze?"
