Chapter 221 The Future of the Emei Sect
When Mo Yu, a member of the group of heroes, saw the expression on Abbess Miejue's face that was a mixture of pain, confusion, and something else... indescribable, as if she had reached some kind of broken peak, he was truly panicked.

He finally remembered how many layers of nested emergency commands with bizarre trigger conditions he had stuffed into the core program of the God of War, that extremely cowardly guy Qin Shi!
"Stop! Stop right now!!"

His consciousness instantly sank into his sea of ​​consciousness, and the tyrant's primordial spirit used both hands to draw complex runes containing the highest authority in the air.

After a series of dazzling internal permission verifications and forced interventions.

Finally, the God of War, who thought he had encountered a formidable enemy and was preparing to burn his core, squeeze out the last bit of Qi, and continue his divine descent, was stopped.

hum...

The energy storm in the quiet room seemed to have been paused, gradually subsiding.

The aura within Abbess Miejue plummeted once again from its terrifying peak, like a kite with a broken string.

This time, she could no longer hold on. Her delicate body suddenly went limp, and her head drooped. If it weren't for the futon beneath her, she would probably have collapsed to the ground completely.

After a long while, she weakly and slowly opened her eyes.

Those once sharp, sword-like eyes were now shrouded in a mist, carrying a deep sense of shame, embarrassment, and a trace of lingering, secret longing for that intense experience.

"What...what exactly did you do to me...?"

Her voice was light, hoarse, and weak, devoid of any of the majesty and coldness of a former righteous master, and no longer bearing the shadow of the "Extinction Old Witch" rumored in the martial arts world who struck fear into the hearts of the evil sects.

At this moment, she was just a martial artist who had been completely stripped of her power and dignity, bowing down to the 'culprit' who had unintentionally controlled her body and soul.

"Uncle-Master, it was my fault just now."

Mo Yu, one of the heroes, scratched his head, carefully choosing his words, and tried to explain:
"I unintentionally triggered a power similar to your original sword intent. I only wanted to confirm some things, but I didn't expect it to cause such a strong resonance, and I certainly didn't expect... it to get out of control..."

Abbess Miejue's body stiffened again.

Mo Yu's words were like a key, instantly unlocking certain fragments of her chaotic mind.

That external, yet originating, force...

It turned out that it wasn't an illusion, nor was it the growth of inner demons, but rather that a real force had ignited her dormant sword intent.

She closed her eyes in anguish, a surge of indescribable regret and sorrow welling up inside her.

How could I have been so blinded by greed to choose the seemingly shortcut, yet fraught with hidden dangers, path of "human-machine symbiosis"?
This path is indeed much faster to cultivate than the conventional way, and the increase in power is also extremely significant.

But these side effects are so terrifying, so... humiliating!
I thought that losing the Heaven-Slaying Sword and being unable to easily use that power, resulting in stagnation in my cultivation and inability to reach the Celestial Realm, was already the worst consequence of this path.

Little did they know, something even more tragic and humiliating was yet to come!
When the Heaven-Slaying Sword Intent, which is connected to one's own origin, is devoured and mastered by others, and may even be deduced to be stronger.

Having become almost one with the divine weapon, one is, on some level, actually regarded as an object that can be "resonated with," "activated," and even... indirectly "controlled"!

No, it can't be said that I completely controlled her.

More accurately, it took control of the power she had cultivated for decades!
The fundamental characteristic of a master at the Celestial Grandmaster level is that they can connect the inner and outer worlds, and their energy meridians become semi-materialized.

In addition to his extraordinary fundamental characteristics, his will influences reality, and the first thing it affects is himself.

In this state, the body's energy conduction system and a sensory system that is more sensitive than ordinary nerves are likely to be remotely controlled by that same source of power!

In the fantasy and martial arts worlds that Qunxia Moyu knows, many demonic sects operate in this way, turning people into controlled puppets, or sword puppets.

But extinction is something that actively sought out and transformed itself into this grotesque state...

Perhaps it was that pair, the Wang family grandfather and grandson who practiced the art of eating spirits and trained themselves as ghost kings.

These myriad realms are indeed all incredibly abstract and bizarre!

Fortunately, Mo Yu, one of the heroes, is an upright person and has no dirty thoughts.

If you were to send even a 'small fry' like her, not only would she be wiped out, but the entire Emei Sect would be packaged up and turned into an Emei family bucket! Thump! Thump thump!

Just as the atmosphere in the quiet room reached its most delicate point, a crisp knock on the door broke the silence.

“Master, your disciple Bei Jinyi has urgent business to discuss.” Bei Jinyi’s clear and respectful voice came from outside the door.

Abbess Miejue and the chivalrous Mo Yu exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of panic in each other's eyes.

Mo Yu, one of the heroes, immediately stood up, cupped his hands, and said, "Since Senior Sister Bei has something important to report, it must be a major matter concerning the Emei Sect. It is inconvenient for this disciple to be here, so I will take my leave now."

"Shut up and sit down!"

The Abbess Miejue's voice rang out. While secretly adjusting her breathing to calm her disordered breathing and emotions, she stared coldly at Mo Yu.

Are you kidding me?! You just let you get away like that?

On the one hand, the mysterious power in Mo Yu's hand that can arouse her original sword intent is her only hope to break through the bottleneck of her cultivation over the years and take a further step. She must not let it go!

On the other hand, he had seen her make such a mess of herself just now, and if he let her leave without getting anything out of her, wouldn't he be losing out big time?!
Mo Yu, one of the heroes, wanted to run away immediately, since he had already obtained the martial arts technique.

But given his combat prowess, unless he borrows sword intent again or switches to a battle-maniac stance, he'll be outmatched.

Otherwise, he would be no match for Extinction.

After some thought, Mo Yu, the hero, decided to obediently sit back down. After all, what Abbess Miejue sought was nothing more than sword intent.

Just ask the Sword Maniac for a copy of his sword technique notes, and that'll do the trick.

Seeing that he was sensible, Miejue was slightly satisfied. She straightened her slightly disheveled monk's robe, took a deep breath, and called out towards the door:
"Enter."

The wooden door to the quiet room was gently pushed open.

Bei Jinyi walked in first, followed by Ding Minjun.

Bei Jinyi originally intended to report directly to her master, but upon entering the room and seeing that the hero Mo Yu was also there, she paused slightly, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes.

Ding Minjun, however, was much more astute. The moment she entered, she keenly sensed that something was amiss in the quiet room; her master's expression and aura seemed somewhat strange.

His eyes darted around, and he stole another glance at the group of heroes, trying to figure out what had happened with that soaring sword intent.

"If there's anything you need to say, just say it. Nephew Mo Yu is no outsider, so there's no need to hold back."

When Miejue saw her two disciples enter, she had a general idea of ​​what it was about.

Considering the strength that Mo Yu has shown so far, his unique ability to indirectly "control" his own power, and his identity as a disciple of Wudang, it is clear that...

It might be better for him to know some things.

"Yes."

Pei Jinyi composed herself, no longer hesitating, and respectfully reported:

"Reporting to Master, Emperor Tianwan Xu Shouhui has sent another envoy. The envoy is very earnest and hopes that our Emei Sect can help him take over Sichuan Province. He has also promised many generous conditions."

Ding Minjun then added, her voice carrying a barely perceptible hint of excitement:

"At the same time, the Yuan court also sent secret envoys to contact us, hoping that our Emei Sect could help them stabilize the situation in Sichuan Province and suppress various rebel groups. The offer they made... was also quite astonishing!"

Abbess Miejue nodded slightly. The news brought by Bei Jinyi and the others confirmed that the matter was indeed as she had guessed.

He turned his head and looked at Mo Yu, a member of the group of heroes beside him who seemed indifferent to the matter and kept his eyes down.

"Nephew Mo Yu, what do you think?"
