Chapter 56: Chapter 46 Consider Me_i

Translator: 549690339

Ani I too strong? Or are they too weak?

Clutching Xiao Yi’s corpse, Xu Mu moved like lightning, dashing rapidly through the pitch-black forest, effortlessly dodging obtrusive objects.

He had initially wanted to test his Grandmaster-level Light Body Skill on the members of the Patrol Team, but they proved too feeble. Even with over a dozen attacking him simultaneously, none could force him to exert his full strength.

Even the highly anticipated Xiao Yi was disappointingly weak, slain by a single stroke of a sword.

If it were not for the fact that the Luo Family had not yet been exterminated, and his concern that these individuals might leak his identity upon their arrival at the Liyang Sect, he could have effortlessly commanded this entire squad with his invincible strength.

Regrettably, to safeguard his future life, he could only continue to lay low.

Of course, there was another option, which was to kill everyone upon reaching the Liyang Sect.

Clearly, he could not do such a thing!

Having put some distance between himself and the team, and once certain there were no pursuers, Xu Mu finally stopped by a small lake.

After extracting all the valuable items from Xiao Yi1 s body, he flicked his finger, and a snake of fire appeared, wrapping Xiao Yi’s corpse, it was swiftly reduced to ash.

Huh?

Xu Mu was about to leave when he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, as if he was being watched.

His brow furrowed, and he abruptly turned around.

There was nothing behind him!

Neither could he sense anything.

Is it my imagination?

A hint of confusion crossed his eyes.

The feeling reminded him of his past encounter with the Evil Chong in the slums.

Speaking of which! The team has traveled for so long, and we haven’t encountered any Evil Chong yet! Surely fate wouldn’t make me rhe first to encounter one?’1

Evil Chong arc different from Monster Beasts. They are spiritual entities with mysterious abilities that ordinary people cannot comprehend.

Xu Mu retrieved the Talisman of Repelling Evil he carried, but there was no reaction.

Could it be that I’ve overthought things?

Once certain there was no problem, Xu Mu moved with speed, vanishing from his original position.

But not long after his departure, a mesmerizing red flower gradually bloomed at the spot where the body had been burnt to ash.

In the moonlight, a hazy shape reminiscent of a soul emerged from within the flower.

Despite the soul being somewhat blurry, the faint semblance of Xiao Yi could be made out.

So, the flower mark on my forehead truly is the legendary Reincarnation Beyond-Reach Flower, which can purify my soul and allow me to reincarnate with my memories intact!”

Xiao Yi was ecstatic to the point of madness.

He had once accidentally stumbled upon a secret locale and found a red flower that he thought was some kind of treasure. However, after consuming it, other than leaving a mark on his forehead, it served no purpose.

Upon researching through ancient texts, he found that it bore an uncanny resemblance to the Reincarnation Beyond-Reach Flower described in the legends. However, this flower’s ability could only be activated after its holder experienced an unnatural death.

Xiao Yi did not dare to attempt it!

Had he not been killed by Xu Mu this time, he might never have triggered the power of the Reincarnation Beyond-Reach Flower.

“Whoever you are, I owe you my thanks! Rest assured, in my next life, I will make you wish you were dead!”

With the power of the Reincarnation Beyond-Reach Flower, he can commence cultivation right from his mother’s womb in his next life, establishing an unparalleled foundation and inheriting limitless potential.

Forget about the Foundation Establishment Stage, which eludes him in this life, he could even touch upon the Golden Core Stage, the Nascent Soul Stage, and maybe even the mythical Divinity Transformation Stage rumored in legends.

You bastard, you just wait for me… Huh? How is he back again?!

Xiao Yi hurriedly utilized the inherent power of the soul to conceal himself

Xu Mu, who was supposed to be gone, reappeared by the lake in a few swift strides.

Opening his palm, fire elements in the space began to congregate. They quickly formed into a globe engulfed in thick blue flames.

He cast the blue flame globe towards the spot where he had burnt the corpse then quickly distanced himself.

What is this… Oh no!”

Xiao Yi’s soul had just revealed itself and had no time to figure out what Xu Mu had tossed towards him. The globe of blue flames then violently exploded, the intense and ferocious flame swallow his soul whole in an instant. Everything within a hundred meters was razed to the ground.

As expected, this puts my mind at ease!”

Having glanced back one last time, Xu Mu finally felt reassured.

He was once bitten by a snake and had feared ropes for the next ten years!

Additionally, it was a good chance to test the power of the compressed fireball.

Clearly, it did not disappoint him!

With such a force, killing a Foundation Establishment Stage Monster Beast is not out of the question!

Transforming back into his original form, Xu Mu disappeared into the night.

With breezes rustling the night woods, tranquility once again returned.

My lord?

Yes.”

In the darkness, Ye Yingying didn’t ask anything but simply buried her head deep into his embrace, savoring his familiar scent.

Little Ling’cr, who was beside them, rolled over to one side, sleeping soundly.

Ying Er, would you be upset if I were to take a concubine?” Xu Mu suddenly asked.

Ye Yingying’s entire body shuddered slightly as she whispered, “As long as my husband likes it, it’s fine! Whatever my husband says, Ying Er will listen!”

Xu Mu didn’t say anything, just held her tightly in his arms.

You’ve worked hard today, husband! Let Ying Er do this!

Ye Yingying bent down and opened her mouth.

On the next day, the effects of the previous day had yet to recede. The remaining four Qi Cultivation Late Stage practitioners were nervous and on full alert.

The original travel schedule was subsequently delayed.

When Xu Mu came out of the tent, Lan Shijin, who had boon hesitating outside for a while, instantly looked over, her beautiful eyes filled with uncertainty.

She had no choice, it was so easy to arouse suspicion!

Only yesterday she had discussed Xiao Yi with Xu Mu and in the very night, Xiao Yi was killed.

That was too much of a coincidence!

I know what Friend Lan is thinking! Why not discuss it inside!

Xu Mu pointed to her tent.

Lan Shijin hesitated for a moment before entering in.

Xu Mu followed swiftly after her.

Inside the tent, Leng Yuening, whose hair was slightly messy, was sorting out her things. Seeing them come in, she quickly stopped what she was doing and sat upright,

As for Xiao Yi s death, she had naturally heard about it.

Inevitably, she too had her suspicions about Xu Mu.

It was just somewhat hard to believe!

After all, Xu Mu had always been harmless towards people and animals.

Except for the night before they set off!

Once the three of them were seated, Xu Mu posted a silence talisman, preventing anyone outside from overhearing their conversation.

Seeing Xu Mu’s action, the two women became even more apprehensive.

If it wasn’t for something major, Xu Mu would never behave this way.

Xiao Yi was killed by me!”

As soon as Xu Mu spoke, both women were shocked into silence.

They had just speculated, but they didn’t expect Xu Mu to actually admit it.

But how could this be possible?

Xiao Yi was a notable practitioner in the late Qi Cultivation stage, very powerful, and Xu Mu was nothing more than a level six Qi Cultivation practitioner, mainly focusing on alchemy.

Friend Xu, you must be joking?1‘ Lan Shijin said in disbelief.

Leng Yuening also looked at him, her beautiful eyes filled with incredulity.

Xu Mu didn’t speak but simply retrieved the robe he had snatched from Xiao Yi’s body.

Having seen the robe more than once before, the two women instantly recognized it.

How could this be possible!!”

To this moment, they still found it hard to believe.

Because it was simply unbelievable!

The reason Xu Mu showed them the robe and revealed his secret was because it was too troublesome to keep it hidden. Furthermore, they had a long journey ahead, and his strength was going to be revealed sooner or later. So why not just explain everything in advance?

Did you also kill those people last time? Are you the murderer everyone goes on about?”

Lan Shijin was both shocked and slightly fearful.

Ever since he effortlessly took care of Zhou Chong and his companions, various tales about him had started circulating within the team. Some said he was a powerful practitioner who had survived a tribulation, some said he was a demonic cultivator in disguise, others said ho was sent by the Soul Forging Sect specifically to hunt them down.

They all ultimately dubbed him the Murderer!

Yes!

Xu Mu nodded in affirmation.

The two women were so taken aback they could not find the words to respond.

They had initially thought of him as a harmless little lamb, but in the blink of an eye, he had turned into a big bad wolf.

At least they wore somewhat mentally prepared. While they had been in the skims, they had slightly suspected that he was involved in Zhou Chong and others1 deaths because the traces he left behind were very similar.

I’m grateful to you, Friend Xu!

Once she had calmed down, Lan Shijin thanked Xu Mu and her attitude was much more respectful than before.

Friend Lan, do you still remember whar I said yesterday?” Xu Mu asked with a smile.

Lan Shijin recalled the conversation.

Yesterday, Xu Mu had mentioned that he had a favor to ask her once everything was done.

Please go ahead, Friend Xu, I’ll agree to it as long as it’s within my power!’’

Xu Mu’s act of killing Xiao Yi had saved Leng Yuening. This was no small favor.

Actually, it’s not a big deal!

Xu Mu lightly flicked his fingers and, unwilling to beat around the bush, said straightforwardly, “Once we reach Liyang Sect, I plan to establish a family. Therefore, if Lady Yue Ning is considering getting married, why not consider me!”

PS: Friend Lan, if you’re considering remarriage, you can also consider me!
