Chapter 1382: Chapter 528: Walking the Butterfly?
Thirty miles outside Weilong City, there is a mountain called Jianlong Mountain.
This time, regarding the matter of Tianqi Island, four divisions of the Eight Sects gathered their strength here.
One Weilong City truly cannot accommodate the main forces of these four divisions.
Therefore, apart from Mu Shanshan’s Gen Division, the disciples of the Dragon King Hall from the remaining three divisions dispersed throughout Weilong Island.
Those camping at the foot of Jianlong Mountain belong to the Qian Division.
And at this moment, several people have bypassed the camp of the Qian Division to reach the mid-mountain area of Jianlong Mountain.
The person leading them is none other than Mu Shanshan!
Beside her are the Four Sihai Dragon Heads.
After tonight’s banquet, Mu Shanshan felt sorry for the Dragon Girl over the lavish meal expenses, but the important task still needed to be done.
So she left the Sihai Dragon Heads, telling them about a certain matter.
A while ago, a group of uninvited guests arrived on the island.
This group came stealthily, quietly landing on the island, thinking they could escape Mu Shanshan’s ears and eyes.
Unexpectedly, Mu Shanshan had arranged things tightly on Weilong Island.
This place is originally the demarcation line with the Nanhai Alliance.
To prevent a sudden attack from the Nanhai Alliance, Mu Shanshan naturally put a lot of effort into this.
Especially to guard against the Nanhai Alliance secretly infiltrating; it’s unclear how many spotters were arranged both openly and secretly.
Although these people knew Weilong Island well, they still left clues.
Attracting Mu Shanshan’s vigilance.
However, upon careful investigation, it was found that their place of residence was Jianlong Mountain.
At that time, all four divisions were gathered, and Jianlong Mountain belonged to the Qian Division.
Although Mu Shanshan sent people to investigate, they were discovered and stopped by the people of the Qian Division.
Although she thought that if she personally acted, the Qian Division might not be able to discover her,
once questioned, if her identity were exposed, there would be little leeway for reconciliation between her and the Xiangtian Sect.
Xiangtian Sect is known for being astute and stable, not easy to deal with.
The Eight Sects are inherently divided and on the verge of collapse.
If actions were taken recklessly, once disputes with the Xiangtian Sect began, the Eight Sects would disperse even faster.
Therefore, Mu Shanshan dared not act rashly.
Initially planning to let the matter take its course, regardless of the relationship between the Xiangtian Sect and these lurking people.
However, now the situation has changed.
The appearance of the New Hall Master and Eight Sects Dragon Maiden hints at a new era for the Dragon King Hall.
Although up to now, the true identity of the Eight Sects Dragon Maiden has not been confirmed,
she believes the Four Sihai Dragon Heads would not make empty statements between these matters.
Additionally, tonight Su Mo’s behavior during the banquet won her over.
Shui Wuchang, with three blades and six holes, appears bold.
If Su Mo takes it lightly, it would only indicate that they are weak and easily swayed,
unable to grasp initiative; not suitable material for being Hall Master.
If they coldly watch from the sidelines, unmoved, they are too ruthless.
Currently, Su Mo has shown the authority of the Hall Master and adhered to the rules of the Dragon King Hall.

Also considering the subordinates, granting elixirs as gifts.
Masterfully handled, clearly showing extraordinary skill.
With this, Mu Shanshan made up her mind not to let it take its course.
Now the Dragon King Hall has a backbone, the Eight Sects have a Stabilizing Anchor, and this Stabilizing Anchor is surprisingly steady.
Under such circumstances, it is natural not to allow anyone amongst them to neglect the big picture for personal interest.
Determined to investigate the matter of these uninvited guests clearly.
However, only traces have been discovered about this matter; as for who these guests are, why they sneaked onto Weilong Island, and how they are hiding on Jianlong Mountain.
These issues she cannot ascertain.
Hence, she cannot directly report to Su Mo.
She can only first explain the situation to the Four Sihai Dragon Heads.
Both sides thus reached an agreement and came together to investigate Jianlong Mountain.
At this moment, halfway up the mountain, they find the place empty, with no movement at all.
For a moment, they are somewhat baffled.
“Could it truly be that my people didn’t investigate thoroughly?”
Mu Shanshan began to doubt herself.
Among the four Sihai Dragon Heads, Cen Beihuan gently shook his head:
“Lord Mu, you are mistaken. Given that the other party appeared stealthily on Weilong Island, they surely have plans.
“Such characters act cautiously, making it hard to find clues.
“But it is just a Jianlong Mountain; we might as well turn the mountain over.
“If there is something, naturally it cannot be hidden.
“If there isn’t, we’ll treat it as an outing for leisure.”
“Hahaha.”
Wen Qi couldn’t help but laugh at these words:
“This is reasonable. Tonight, the bright moon hangs high, and the mountain vistas differ from those of daytime.
“Seeking historical spots, yields unique charm.
“It has stirred my poetic inspiration… If any of you are interested, how about I recite a poem for everyone?”
For a moment, everyone was speechless.
Mu Shanshan was even more dumbfounded.
She found them to go mountain climbing in the middle of the night, yet Wen Qi still finds leisure to recite poetry?
Are these the Sihai Dragon Heads?
She rarely interacted with these people in the past.
The Four Dragons focused internally, while the Eight Sects handled external affairs, naturally having little intersection.
Never imagined Wen Qi would be such a character.
Seeing as everyone seemed to have ‘no objection,’ Wen Qi cleared his throat and was about to speak.
However, he had just uttered “Yi Xu Xi” when Zhou Su lowly said:
“Silence!”
“I haven’t recited it yet…”
Wen Qi muttered to himself, knowing Zhou Su always treasured words like gold; once spoken, there must be a discovery.
