Chapter 287 Mu He
"So what should we do now? Should we take action?" Xue Zang asked
"What if this is a trap?" said another masked man.
"You don't believe Mu Bai?" Xue Zang asked
"Believe? Why should I believe him? He has not been baptized by the Church..." said the masked man
"Then what do you say we should do? Lord Saran has been unwilling to contact us." Xue Zang was a little anxious.
"This may be a trap, but even if it is a trap, we have to verify whether it is true or not. If that kid really has the Holy Spring, we have to rescue Lord Saran!" said the masked man.
"Who should we send?" Xue Zang asked immediately.
"To complete our great ceremony, there must be sacrifices. This is true for everyone, and I am no exception~" The masked man was willing to test the waters even though he was the powerful deacon of the Black Church, Hu Jin.
-Dongcheng Area-
Although the situation was as tragic as the nearly razed North Region, the destruction caused by a great battle between a Supreme Mage and the two deceased kings was also horrific... Fortunately, the citizens of East City were the first to evacuate to the inner city.
In the end, the two dead kings seemed to be defeated and temporarily retreated...
In this dilapidated city that looked like a ruin, three figures appeared...
"I didn't expect there are such strong people nowadays... We have to concentrate the military forces in the north. It's getting dark and we won't continue the rain control technique~" A skeleton puppet wearing ancient clothes saw that the Supreme Mage seemed to be attracted by the unusual movement in the west, then glanced at the north and the sky, and muttered at the same time.
The true form of this skeleton puppet was one of the clones left behind by the Red Skull Demon Lord who had just fought with the Supreme Mage together with Commander Mist Ghost...
When the Red Skull was alive, he was a military commander under the ancient king. Although he was also a powerful wizard, he was better at commanding and deploying strategies rather than fighting...
The other two figures were Chen Yongchang, who had a blank look in his eyes and looked like a puppet, and the tall man who had been with him before...
The largest ancient tomb that Jiuyou stayed in the northeast, if it were modern, it would be the location of the Qin Dynasty Terracotta Warriors...
To the northwest are the Mountain Corpse and the recovering Skeleton Dragon, to the north are the Ghost King and the Black Church, to the east are the Fog Ghost Commander and the Red Skull Demon Lord... and finally are the White Corpse King and the Agate Corpse King who are responsible for the southwest.

The museum is located to the south of the bell tower. This venue houses the glorious history of China’s thousands of years of magic civilization…
When the disaster came, the antiquities and documents had already been stored in the warehouse in advance. These important things had to be preserved even if they were destroyed...
The museum is so large that the dome is 15 meters high, and the hall is like an ancient palace with pillars standing tall...
But this place has also become a refuge, and it is densely packed with people...
When Mo Fan and his companions arrived here, they found that something was not good, because if they fought with the people of the Black Church here, many people would be affected...
Not long after Mo Fan arrived at the museum, an unknown person slipped him a note and told him to go to the rooftop of the museum alone!
-On top of the museum-
The place is covered with bricks and tiles, and the eaves are flying, just like a magnificent townhouse in the past...
Wearing a large grey raincoat, Mo Fan stood on one of the eaves...
"Mo Fan, long time no see. How is your father Mo Jiaxing these days?" A voice sounded from behind Mo Fan.
Mo Fan slowly turned around and found that there was another person on the roof. He was also wearing a raincoat. The drizzle hitting his body vaguely outlined his tall figure...
Under the hood of the raincoat is a face with thick eyebrows and beard, which at first glance belongs to a pampered middle-aged man...
"My dad is doing well, with more money than he can spend. He found me a young and beautiful stepmother and bought me several villas to live in and have fun in. My middle-aged life is considered perfect. I didn't expect you to show up in person. It was quite unexpected..." Mo Fan said calmly as a joke.
“Haha, you guys are so smart to see through me so why should I hide it? It’s actually Zhang Xiaohou’s life is tougher than I expected, but it doesn’t matter... It’s meaningless for him to remember it now, which he shouldn’t. Your dad is a good man, and the only thing I, Mu He, regret most in my life is that I didn’t create some accident to make your dad go away earlier. Otherwise, you, a little bastard, wouldn’t have caused me so much trouble…” Mu He grinned without any intention of hiding anything.
Even though Mo Fan couldn't see the man's face, he was certain from his words that it was Mu He!
"In the past, I would have countless ways to kill you..." Mu He continued
"I don't think you would do that..." Mo Fan said
"Yes, doing so will surely make those people from the Inquisition hiding in the dark suspicious of me. Even if I can do it perfectly, I don't want this suspicion to stick to my sleeves, as that may affect our grand ceremony today! The reason why I asked you to come to the top of the pavilion is to let you accompany me to enjoy this beautiful scenery!" Mu He opened his hands with an extremely expectant look.
"In fact, even though I know you will cause us these obstacles, I will still do my duty as Mu He and will not touch you at all... You must know that in this grand ceremony, you still play an insignificant role~" Mu He continued
"Are you so sure that I don't have the Holy Spring?" Mo Fan smiled knowingly.
"It's getting dark. Your Holy Spring can only last until tomorrow dawn. Do you think this city can really survive tonight?" Mu He asked.
Mo Fan looked at the sky. It turned out that a whole day had passed without him noticing, and the sun was about to set...
Although the undead can still be active during the day under the influence of the Nine Nether Dew, once night falls they will become stronger than during the day!
Mo Fan didn't understand. With the ancient capital's golden barrier and the powerful mages in the ancient capital, even if the Undead Lord attacked in full force, the all-out tug-of-war should be able to hold out for a few days...
"You led me out just to find out who Saran is. In fact, I came to see you this time because I need you to help me make connections~" Mu He said slowly
"Do you think I will help you?" Mo Fan asked
"It's up to you. Ask Mu Bai to pass the message to me. I also need you to pass the message to old man Han Ji. As for the Holy Spring, I bet you don't have it. Besides, as I said just now, the Holy Spring will be useless once it gets dark. This city won't survive the next dawn..." Mu He was very sure.

It's a bit of a pain to organize several parallel branches together... I'm sorry it took a while~
