"...Mr. Yuan?"
"Mr. Yuan? Has something happened?"
"Why not reply? Is there dissatisfaction towards our sect?"
"Mr. Yuan... please respond if you see the message."
...
Mo Hua touched his chin.
Oops, seems I’ve been exposed, unsure if it can be covered up, if Elder You will suspect me...
"Maybe... it’s time to stop playing with them?"
Mo Hua mulled it over.
Having killed Golden Cores, eaten Divine Remains, slayed Evil Embryos, breaking through bottlenecks, Divine Marrow near Pure Gold...
His objectives were nearly achieved.
On the Demon Sect side, it indeed seemed unnecessary to waste time further entangling with them.
Originally, for a small Foundation Building Cultivator like him, continually dealing with these vicious Golden Core Demons was somewhat inappropriate and extremely perilous.
It’s time to quit while ahead, withdraw as soon as possible.
The task to eradicate the Demon Sect could be left to the Taoist Court, he just needed to occasionally "monitor" the progress, ensuring Uncle Gu doesn’t get killed.
Nurturing his own Magical Treasure was now the true priority, it could not be delayed.
However, before this, after all the effort, the final bit of "wool" must still be gathered...
Mo Hua contemplated, then sent a message to Elder You:
"I have been targeted by the Taoist Court’s dogs..."
Soon, Elder You sent a message back, "Is that so?"
"Is the gentleman presently safe?"
Mo Hua didn’t reply immediately, pretending to be under investigation by the Taoist Court, treated it with great caution, and deliberately left Elder You hanging for half a day, then replied:
"Your actions are too exposed, involving me!"
Mo Hua took the initiative, placing the blame on Elder You.
"My whereabouts have been exposed..."
"Taoist Court has experts tracing me using Thunder Magnetism, I fear leaving any traces, only resorting to partial concealment."
"If found and surrounded by the Taoist Court, certain death awaits!"
Mo Hua didn’t lie, as the real "Mr. Yuan" died in this exact way.
Elder You, upon hearing this, was startled and apologized:
"Our lack of caution implicated you, sir. So now you..."
Mo Hua did not answer him, again left Elder You hanging for a while, then said:
"The situation is dire, I need to avoid attention for a while. Before that..."
Mo Hua’s eyes narrowed slightly, sending a message, "I want my reward... eight hundred thousand Spirit Stones!"
