From the bottom of his heart, he still hoped that his old friend wouldn’t go astray.
Afterwards, the few people returned to the Taixu Gate.
In the Disciple’s Residence, Mo Hua lay on the bed, still thinking about the events of the day.
Taoist Court...
The Taoist Court and the Taoist Court Official, though only differing by one character, had vastly different meanings.
The Taoist Court unified the Cultivation World for over twenty thousand years, with a terrifyingly deep foundation.
Who knows how many cultivation resources they’ve accumulated, how many cultivation heritages they’ve monopolized, and behind the Taoist Court, who knows how many unfathomable old monsters lurk.
In the Qian Learning State Boundary, though there is a Taoist Court Official.
However, this Taoist Court Official, though under the supervision and jurisdiction of the Central Dao Court, has been infiltrated by major families.
Previously, the Taoist Court also turned a blind eye.
Not sure if it’s a kind of compromise.
Or perhaps, the major families in the Qian Learning State Boundary have people in the Taoist Court, colluding with each other and blinding the public.
But now the situation seems a bit different...
The Taoist Court began investigating the Gui Water Sect, which seemed like a small issue, but might be a trigger.
However...
What exactly does the Taoist Court want to investigate about the Gui Water Sect?
Why did they start with the Gui Water Sect?
How much does the Taoist Court actually know?
Mo Hua thought for half a day, without any clue.
After all, if it’s the Taoist Court Official, he has had some dealings, knows some insights, and has some acquaintances.
But the Taoist Court is like a colossal entity, far above him, completely out of his reach.
"I need to find someone who knows the inside story..."
Mo Hua took out the Letter Token again, thought for a while, and felt it was better to ask directly, so he sent a message to Gu Changhuai:
"Uncle Gu, has someone from the Taoist Court come?"
He waited for a long time, but Gu Changhuai didn’t reply.
Not sure if he was busy and didn’t see it, or simply didn’t want to talk about the Taoist Court.
But this matter is quite crucial.
Mo Hua considered it and decided to ask in person.
Early the next morning, he left the Taixu Gate and went to the Taoist Court Official in the Qian Learning State Boundary.
At the Taoist Court Official, no one stopped him.
Gu Changhuai had served as a Supervisor at the Taoist Court Official for many years, with considerable prestige.
Ordinary Enforcement Leaders might make things difficult for new cultivators, but Mo Hua was a familiar face and had a good relationship with Gu Changhuai, so naturally, no one dared to trouble him.
There was even an Enforcement Leader from the Gu Family who poured Mo Hua a cup of tea, politely saying:
"The Supervisor is busy with affairs, young master please wait a moment."
Mo Hua politely thanked him, then quietly sat down to drink tea, while secretly observing the cultivators coming and going in the Taoist Court Official.
After drinking about four or five cups of tea, Mo Hua saw Gu Changhuai come out and quickly greeted:
"Uncle Gu."
Seeing Mo Hua’s handsome face, Gu Changhuai’s head involuntarily began to ache.
If it weren’t for being at the Taoist Court Official and having to maintain an image, he would probably have turned and left.
"What’s the matter?" Gu Changhuai said indifferently.
"I sent you a Letter Token, you didn’t respond, so I came to find you." Mo Hua said straightforwardly.
Gu Changhuai sighed, just about to say something, when suddenly a cold but clear voice sounded nearby:
"Supervisor Gu, you seem quite leisurely, still have time to chat here..."
Mo Hua was a little surprised, looking up, he found that the speaker was a woman wearing a Supervisor’s Taoist Robe.
This woman was tall and beautiful, with a cold expression and a slightly raised chin, exuding an aura of arrogance.
Gu Changhuai’s expression was indifferent, obviously in a bad mood:
"Why, I can’t even say a few words? Don’t forget, you are a Supervisor, so am I, you have no authority over me."
The woman’s expression became colder.
After that, neither of them spoke, staring at each other, eyes equally cold, expressions equally indifferent, creating a slightly tense atmosphere.
Mo Hua sat between the two, looking innocent.
After a moment, he moved closer to Gu Changhuai, lowered his voice and asked: "Uncle Gu, who is this beautiful sister?"
Gu Changhuai’s eyelid twitched.
This little brat, spouting nonsense, where did he learn this flattery from?
Outwardly, he deliberately kept his voice low, but in front of a Golden Core expert, who could he fool with this?
The woman across also obviously heard Mo Hua’s words, her expression remained as cold as ever, but her eyes softened when looking at Mo Hua.
No woman dislikes being complimented on her beauty.
What’s more, coming from a pure-intentioned youth, with clear eyes, like a spring breeze, refreshing the heart.
Her voice unconsciously softened as well, "Little brother, you can’t call me ’sister’, I’m much older than you..."
Mo Hua curiously asked: "Then what should I call?"
Beside him, Gu Changhuai snorted, "What else can you call, naturally ’aunt’."
The woman’s gaze towards Gu Changhuai was now mixed with some killing intent, "Supervisor Gu, if you can’t speak nicely, you might as well be silent."
After finishing, she turned back to Mo Hua and said: "My surname is Xia, you can call me Xia Canonical Official."
Mo Hua nodded, "Hello, Xia Canonical Official."
Xia Canonical Official slightly nodded and asked: "You’ve come to the Taoist Court Official, is there something you need?"
Mo Hua glanced at Gu Changhuai, starting to fabricate a story, "Elder Gu Hong sent me to call Uncle Gu back to the Gu Family, there’s something at home."
Xia Canonical Official was somewhat surprised, "What is it?"
Mo Hua looked at Gu Changhuai, then at Xia Canonical Official, hesitating, unsure whether to say or not.
After a moment, he gestured to Xia Canonical Official.
Xia Canonical Official was slightly startled, then understood Mo Hua’s intention, subconsciously leaned over, and heard Mo Hua whisper in her ear:
