The tripartite balance of power had already been broken by him; if Ancestor Gu Cang could also stand on his side, coupled with Ancestor Mu Chen, things between him and Saint Master Gu Hanyu would be much easier.

Originally, it wouldn't have been this troublesome at all. As long as Saint Master Gu Hanyu was willing, he could just take her away directly.

Although Hanshui Holy Land was strong, at most it was only on par with the Nether Race. To stop him, it was far from enough; if Lin Moyu were willing, he could even forcefully storm into Hanshui Holy Land without needing to negotiate with them at all.

The only reason he did this was out of consideration for Saint Master Gu Hanyu's feelings; after all, this was her home, and he didn't want her to have any regrets.

With one spirit flower exhausted, Gu Hanxue's soul had already recovered for the most part, but a strand of peculiar energy had been persistently blocking the soul's recovery.

This energy came from that mysterious entity within the Soul Void; the power of the Soul Void was different from that of the Origin Continent, making it quite troublesome to clear away.

However, for Lin Moyu, it wasn't a major issue; it was nothing more than using a few more spirit flowers.

As long as Gu Hanxue had not yet reached the Pseudo-Great Dao Realm, and the injuries she sustained did not exceed the Dao Venerable Realm and were not caused by Heavenly Punishment, the spirit flower could heal them.

With each spirit flower used, Gu Hanxue's soul recovered a bit more.

After three spirit flowers, the strange aura on Gu Hanxue's soul was completely cleared, and the fourth spirit flower completely healed her injuries.

Gu Hanxue slowly opened her eyes, looking around with a hint of confusion.

Ancestor Mu Chen occupied all of Gu Hanxue's vision at the first moment, "Hanxue, how are you feeling!"

Concern leads to confusion; even though he clearly knew Gu Hanxue had recovered, as a Ninth Realm Ancestor, the questions Ancestor Mu Chen asked were still quite childish.

Lin Moyu said, "Let's go out first. Don't disturb them."

There was envy in Saint Master Gu Hanyu's eyes, "Alright, let's go back first."

Chapter 3347: Destruction is Always Easier Than Construction

In the eyes of outsiders, Saint Master Gu Hanyu was incomparably cold and aloof. Even in the eyes of her fellow disciples in the Holy Land, Saint Master Gu Hanyu was like a queen, high and unreachable.

But in that moment just now, Lin Moyu clearly saw that Saint Master Gu Hanyu was similarly envious of a beautiful love.

Perhaps this was her true nature, or perhaps it was influenced by the lianli branch. Which one it was, it was already impossible to tell clearly, and there was no need to distinguish it.

Lin Moyu gently held Saint Master Gu Hanyu's hand; although he said nothing, in reality, he had said everything.

The warmth transmitted from Lin Moyu's palm turned into a hot current, warming Saint Master Gu Hanyu's heart.

Returning to the courtyard where Ancestor Gu Cang resided, Ancestor Gu Cang had not yet returned; evidently, he was still deliberating with the other ancestors.

As for what specific results they would discuss, in Lin Moyu's eyes, it actually didn't matter.

There were only two possible outcomes: either everyone would get along harmoniously, or he would convince them with virtue.

Saint Master Gu Hanyu asked softly, "Over these years, what have you experienced?"

Lin Moyu laughed, "Are you referring to my cultivation?"

Saint Master Gu Hanyu nodded.

"Back then, I knew you went to the Eastern Continent, which happened to be experiencing chaos, and later some things also happened in the Holy Land. Once things were mostly dealt with, I lost contact with you, but fortunately, the lianli branch was there. I could roughly sense that you were still alive," Lin Moyu said with a smile.

"I've also had quite a few fortuitous encounters over the years. In the Eastern Continent, I built a small force and managed to gain a firm footing."

Saint Master Gu Hanyu said, "When I was young, I once went to the Eastern Continent; it's a bit chaotic over there. Beast tides frequently break out, and the Dongling Empire is also overly mysterious."

As the Holy Master of Hanshui Holy Land, Saint Master Gu Hanyu naturally knew of the Dongling Empire, but she didn't know anything too deep. She only knew that the Dongling Empire occasionally incited beast tides to destroy the various major cities of the Eastern Continent; this was also one of the roots of the chaos in the Eastern Continent.

Additionally, there was strife between various races in the Eastern Continent, and factions would often fight fiercely over resources.

Lin Moyu smiled, "The place I'm in is a bit remote, but it's still considered safe. I have a good relationship with the Third Ancestor and the new Emperor of the Dongling Empire. Furthermore, my force isn't large, so it won't affect their interests. Therefore, there won't be any problems."

Saint Master Gu Hanyu nodded, "That's good. Seeing you today, I also know you've been doing well, but this matter of ours is actually very difficult. Even if Ancestor Mu Chen stands on our side, wanting to change the rules set by our ancestors is not easy."

Lin Moyu laughed, "For your sake, I am willing to reason with them about the rules. If they don't want to change, then I can only convince them with virtue."

Hearing "convince them with virtue" again, Saint Master Gu Hanyu couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, "Always bragging. Although you are powerful, this is Hanshui Holy Land; it's not as easy as you say. The array here alone is a major problem."

Lin Moyu's eyes lit up, "I had forgotten about the array."

As he spoke, Lin Moyu looked up at the surroundings. In his eyes, the veins of the array were revealed one by one.

The town-sect array of Hanshui Holy Land was called the Nine Extremes Cold Heaven Array.

As the Holy Master, Saint Master Gu Hanyu possessed partial control over the Nine Extremes Cold Heaven Array, but the true control did not lie in her hands; it was in the hands of several ancestors.

The Nine Extremes Cold Heaven Array was not a single array, but was composed of hundreds of arrays of varying sizes and different functions, all operated by a unified large-scale array.

The Nine Extremes Cold Heaven Array was immensely powerful. With the aid of Hanshui Holy Land's 8th-rank origin spirit vein, once activated, its power was comparable to an 8th-rank array.

Even a Dao Venerable 9th Realm expert would find it difficult to escape unscathed, which is why Saint Master Gu Hanyu said that if they were to take action, Lin Moyu would have a hard time even getting past the town-sect array.

Moreover, once he took action, her authority over the array would be revoked, and she would be unable to control it at all.

Lin Moyu spent a few minutes completely seeing through the structure of the Nine Extremes Cold Heaven Array.

This kind of array group composed of a large number of arrays, while powerful, was much easier to dismantle compared to a true 8th-rank array. It couldn't stump him at all.

After seeing it clearly, Lin Moyu began to draw runes. At the same time, origin crystals flew out, flying out of the valley and heading into the distance.

Watching Lin Moyu's actions, Saint Master Gu Hanyu realized that Lin Moyu had actually set his sights on the Nine Extremes Cold Heaven Array, and she couldn't help but let out an exclamation, "What are you doing?"

Lin Moyu said, "Making slight modifications. Hanyu didn't mention it earlier, and I had forgotten about it. In case we fall out, this array cannot become a weapon used against us. Now, by making slight modifications, I can make it serve me."

Saint Master Gu Hanyu watched Lin Moyu's fluid, flowing movements, and the shock in her eyes grew increasingly intense, "Your mastery of arrays is actually this high?"

She knew very well how complex the Nine Extremes Cold Heaven Array was. An array comparable to an 8th-rank one seemed very simple in Lin Moyu's eyes.

If it wasn't that Lin Moyu's mastery of arrays was too strong, then it was that Lin Moyu was just messing around.

Messing around was impossible; Saint Master Gu Hanyu was, after all, a Holy Master and in the Dao Venerable 6th Realm. She still had that much discernment.

Lin Moyu was not humble at all, "My mastery of arrays, while not top-tier, barely reaches the 8th rank."

"8th rank!" Saint Master Gu Hanyu's beautiful eyes widened, completely unable to believe her own ears. Lin Moyu actually said he had already reached the 8th rank.

In the entire Origin Continent, there weren't many 8th-rank array masters. In the history of Hanshui Holy Land, only one 7th-rank peak array master had ever appeared, and that was achieved by piling on a massive amount of resources.

In just these few years, Lin Moyu had to cultivate and also comprehend arrays; she truly didn't know how he did it.

Saint Master Gu Hanyu felt that compared to Lin Moyu, what exactly had she been cultivating? While she was shocked, Lin Moyu continued, "If this array were a single 8th-rank array, it would indeed not be easy to modify. However, it is itself only a 7th-rank array; it is by utilizing the origin spirit vein and combining multiple arrays that it barely reaches the 8th-rank level."

"Modifying it is much easier. Destruction is always easier than construction, isn't it!"

Indeed, it would be difficult to set up a new Nine Extremes Cold Heaven Array, which would be time-consuming and labor-intensive, and one would have to consider the terrain, the origin spirit vein, and various other factors. If it was just a modification, it would be much simpler.

After all, the array was ready-made; the predecessors planted the trees, and he, the descendant, naturally enjoyed the shade.

Lin Moyu's movements were swift, his hands already appearing as afterimages, yet they were incomparably graceful.

It was like a visual feast. Saint Master Gu Hanyu was somewhat mesmerized; in her mind, Lin Moyu was becoming increasingly mysterious, as if shrouded in a mist.

She really wanted to see through the mist to see what the real Lin Moyu looked like.

Several minutes later, Lin Moyu took out a jade plate. Several runes flew onto the jade plate, and the jade plate instantly turned into an array disk. The array disk looked plain and unadorned, no different from an ordinary array disk.

Lin Moyu handed the array disk to Saint Master Gu Hanyu, "Through this array disk, you can fully control the Nine Extremes Cold Heaven Array. Before it is activated, the Nine Extremes Cold Heaven Array will be the same as before, without any changes. How to use it, and whether to use it, Hanyu shall decide."

Saint Master Gu Hanyu took the array disk and nodded slightly, "Alright."

As the Holy Master in charge of the Holy Land, she was naturally decisive in killing and cutting.

She knew what kind of decision to make at what time. Without anyone knowing, Hanshui Holy Land had already been 'burglarized'—the town-sect array.

Chapter 3348: Lin Does Not Wish to Be Enemies with the Seniors Either

The Nine Extremes Cold Heaven Array had already, silently and without anyone knowing, truly fallen into Saint Master Gu Hanyu's hands. If they really fell out at the end, this Nine Extremes Cold Heaven Array alone would be enough to let them escape and survive.

Saint Master Gu Hanyu was a member of the Gu family. Unless it was an absolute last resort, she naturally didn't want to fall out with her own family.

After finishing all this, Lin Moyu sipped his tea slowly, "Little Mei, what do you think of your master doing this?"

Little Mei blinked her eyes, "Little Mei naturally sees it with her eyes. Whatever Teacher does, Little Mei supports it."

Lin Moyu said as if joking, "Then what if I did it like I did with the Nether Race?"

Little Mei shook her head, "Teacher wouldn't. Otherwise, Mistress definitely wouldn't let Teacher off."

Lin Moyu was amused by Little Mei, "Indeed, I wouldn't."

Listening to their conversation, Saint Master Gu Hanyu was somewhat puzzled. For one, Little Mei's attitude was truly strange.

This disciple looked only thirteen or fourteen years old, but in her speech, she did not sound like a thirteen or fourteen-year-old person—too mature.

And why did it get brought back to the Nether Race again? What did that mysterious Nether Race have to do with anything?

Saint Master Gu Hanyu asked, "Why mention the Nether Race?"

Lin Moyu said nonchalantly, "I went to the Western Continent a while ago to ask the Nether Race for something, and they weren't very cooperative."

"I accidentally slaughtered them."

"What!"

"You slaughtered the Nether Race!"

Saint Master Gu Hanyu exclaimed, losing her composure for a moment. Although she had never been to the Nether Race…
