Seeing Mo Hua's grave expression, clearly understanding the stakes, Elder Master Xun finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he remembered another question: "Did any anomaly occur with your divine sense core formation?"
"An anomaly?" Mo Hua furrowed his brows, "What anomaly?"
He genuinely didn't know.
Elder Master Xun frowned, also uncertain.
The scenes of endless golden light and a divine tree covering the sky floated in his mind, and Elder Master Xun pondered:
"Was that scene just now, that giant golden tree, an anomaly from Mo Hua's divine sense core formation?"
"It shouldn't be possible... just forming a core, it shouldn't have such a grand scene..."
"But in the Foundation Establishment Realm, divine sense core formation is too 'deviant', already beyond the Heavenly Dao norms, from this perspective, it's not impossible... "
"Whether this anomaly was caused by Mo Hua..."
Seeing Mo Hua also unclear, Elder Master Xun sighed softly.
"Forget it, whether it is or isn't, one way or another, we have to find ways to cover it up, can't let suspicion arise."
Elder Master Xun resumed a calm demeanor and feigned nonchalance: "It's nothing, I was just asking casually."
"Oh." Mo Hua nodded without thinking much.
"Remember what I said, don't overthink and rest well." Elder Master Xun advised again.
"Yes, Elder Master, I've remembered everything." Mo Hua replied earnestly.
"Good."
Elder Master Xun nodded slightly, took a deep look at Mo Hua, and then his figure flashed, leaving the Disciple's Residence.
A void rift flashed, Elder Master Xun returned to the Elder's Residence, and before settling down, a guest arrived.
It was the Sect Leader of Taixu Gate.
"Ancestor, it seems there was some anomaly in the sky just now..." The Taixu Sect Master frowned.
Elder Master Xun's heart moved, replied without showing emotion: "What did you see?"
"It seemed like there were strands of golden light in the sky, and some mysterious fragmented patterns..." The Taixu Sect Master said.
Elder Master Xun understood they hadn't truly seen the scene, exhaled slowly, contemplated for a moment, and said:
"There was indeed a minor anomaly, nothing serious, all dealt with. Tell the elders who saw it not to be overly alarmed, but also not to spread it."
Not to be overly alarmed, but not spread?
Taixu Sect Master felt this was a bit odd, but since the ancestor said so, there must be a deeper meaning, likely something inconvenient to discuss.
Taixu Sect Master replied: "Okay, I'll inform them."
"Mm." Elder Master Xun nodded.
"Then I won't disturb the ancestor." Taixu Sect Master withdrew.
Elder Master Xun sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, but before taking a sip, someone else came.
The piercing sound of breaking void echoed repeatedly.
Three void rifts opened suddenly in the Elder's Residence's living room.
The ancestors from Tai'a Sect, Rushing Void Sect, and Taixu Gate's Murong Ancestor all rushed over at once.
The voices were momentarily chaotic.
"Brother Xun... Did I just get up too quickly and see things?"
"I seemed to have seen a large tree."
"The golden light dazzled my eyes..."
"The world anomaly... This is ridiculous..."
Elder Master Xun sighed, his head was beginning to hurt.
Taixu Sect Master, after all, was the junior, and with only Feather Transformation cultivation, he saw less completely, somewhat obscured, easier to fool.
But these few old fellows were all Heaven Void, seeing clearly, and having lived so long, each with deep scheming, not so easy to fool.
Mo Hua this child truly is capable of causing trouble...
