Chapter 374: Chapter 343 Selfless_1

“Hehe!”

Facing Bai Xiaoxiao’s icy questions, Xu Mu wore a smile, remaining silent.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes grew colder and colder. She began to suspect that Xu Mu was scared out of his wits. Not only was he not afraid of her, but he even dared to laugh during such a time.

However, she couldn’t be bothered with this at present. Right now, all she wanted to do was vent her frustration.

With a sweep of her hand, the white gauze she was wearing flew out, enveloping Xu Mu tightly. She then tugged forcefully, intending to pull Xu Mu towards her, but he remained unmoved!

How was that possible?

Bai Xiaoxiao was shocked, wondering if there was something wrong with her treasure.

This white gauze treasure that she wore, although not her lifebound object, was quite powerful. It could easily ensnare a Qi Cultivator or even a Foundation Establishment cultivator, leaving them at her mercy. Even a Golden Core cultivator would find it difficult to break free.

The fact that it was ineffective now was truly surprising.

She did not believe that the problem lay with Xu Mu, so she once again channeled her spiritual power into the white gauze with an even stronger burst of energy.

Although she had not practiced any body refining techniques, she was quite high-ranking and given the strength of her treasure, she could effortlessly lift not just a person, but also a heavyweight cauldron.

But the result was again beyond her expectation. Regardless of how hard she strained her spiritual energy to the extreme, Xu Mu remained unmoved, as if what she was trying to pull was not a person but a towering mountain.

“What’s happening? What’s happening?”

Bai Xiaoxiao began to doubt her life, questioning herself if she had fallen into some illusion.

Just then, Xu Mu spoke.

“You’ve made your move. Now it’s my turn!”

A smile still hung on Xu Mu’s face, like ripples spreading on a placid lake.

He exerted a slight force from his shoulders.

Boom!

Bai Xiaoxiao only felt a powerful force coming, and the white gauze in her hand suddenly stretched taut, as if it would break at any moment. In the next instant, her body uncontrollably flew towards Xu Mu.

Was it him? It was him!!!

Bai Xiaoxiao, who wasn’t foolish, immediately realized something was wrong with Xu Mu.

However, before she could think clearly, she was already in front of Xu Mu and was about to collide with him.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s mind flashed with images of herself colliding with Xu Mu, getting ruthlessly teased and then a typical story unravelling between a philandering lad and a female fairy.

Unfortunately, the imagined scene did not materialise. All she saw was a leg coming at her, rising high and then falling heavily.

Sometime unknown to her, Xu Mu had broken free from the white gauze’s control. A hefty kick, akin to an ax splitting a mountain, fell heavily on Bai Xiaoxiao. With a thud, her entire body was smashed into the ground.

The floor of this room wasn’t ordinary rocks but layered with formations, making it harder than black iron. It had been made this way to prevent the room’s occupants from causing destruction while also stopping anyone from using skills to infiltrate the room.

To be able to kick and create a deep pit in such floor says much about the power of his kick.

Not only that, with the blowout of power from his kick, the formations in the room were also affected and began to flicker violently, ultimately shattering into pieces.

What was strange, however, was that despite such a large commotion, it did not attract the attention of anyone outside.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s mind went blank, and her body went numb. She was lying on the ground, convulsing involuntarily. She couldn’t mobilize the spiritual power within her, let alone muster any strength.

How could this such a thing happen!

How could this such thing happen!!!

Bai Xiaoxiao could only feel shock and disbelief.

Just then, a large foot rose and then ruthlessly stomped on her beautiful face.

“Heaven’s atrocities can still be forgiven, but man’s cannot be spared!”

Xu Mu stepped down harder, and Bai Xiaoxiao felt as though her head was about to be crushed.

“We have no grudge against each other, yet you tried to kill me repeatedly. How do you think I should deal with you?”

Finishing his words, Xu Mu lifted his foot, grabbed Bai Xiaoxiao’s head, and lifted her from the ground.

Stupefied Bai Xiaoxiao no longer bore her pride and sanctity. All that remained in her eyes was fear.

“Who are you, really? My master is the Pavilion Master of Butian Pavilion. If you dare harm me, she won’t spare you!” Bai Xiaoxiao trembled as she spoke.

Seeing Bai Xiaoxiao in this state, Xu Mu couldn’t help but feel disappointed. He thought he was dealing with a feisty character, but who knew she was a coward.

Humiliating such a person was devoid of any sense of accomplishment. It was better to finish matters quickly.

Xu Mu jerked his hand, and the white gauze fell to the ground.

“What are you doing?!!”

Bai Xiaoxiao yelled in horror.

Even though she often did such things, there was a world of difference between her taking the initiative and being forced into it.

She definitely did not believe that the other party would kindly let her cultivate.

As it turned out, she was indeed right.

As soon as she was fully ingrained with it, her cultivation within her body immediately surged like a flood tide, pouring towards him.

“No, no! I am from the Butian Pavilion. You cannot kill me!”

Now Bai Xiaoxiao could only scream and shout like a helpless little girl.

But there was absolutely no mercy in Xu Mu’s eyes.

The mannerisms of this woman showed how many innocent lives she had sucked dry of their cultivation and killed.

Now, he was just treating her with her own medicine.

In the midst of Bai Xiaoxiao’s shrieks, her body continuously withered, just like a plant having its moisture sucked out of it, until she finally disintegrated into ashes.

All that remained was a strand of her soul, caught in Xu Mu’s hand.

“I didn’t expect that going all out with the Yin Yang Harmony Secret Skill would be so overbearing.”

Seeing her turn into ashes, Xu Mu was also quite shocked.

Just then, the system voice sounded in his head.

[Achievement acquired: Fearless Fighter!]

[Fearless Fighter: You can get 10 Luck Points daily!]

[Luck Points: Can be used to improve skill proficiency. Cannot directly improve cultivation!]

“…”

What the hell! Fearless fighter?

Xu Mu was too exhausted to retort.

Looks like even the system is afraid of the crab god!

Xu Mu did not dwell too much on this. For him now, the Luck Points brought about by the achievement were just a small advantage, unnecessary.

That was why he hadn’t deliberately embarked on such things.

He used to be forced, but now he wanted to be a decent person.

“But it seems really difficult!”

Feeling the increased cultivation within his body, Xu Mu sighed deeply.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s entire cultivation was almost equal to his ten-year hard work. The feeling of such rapid growth of cultivation was just too quick, making him harbor the idea to hit Butian Pavilion.

If he could capture a few more Golden Core or Nascent Soul practitioners, wouldn’t he quickly reach the middle stage of the Nascent Soul? This was much simpler than looking for treasures or practicing hard on his own.

But he quickly suppressed this greedy thought.

“First, let’s observe the situation at Butian Pavilion. As for seizing cultivation, let’s take the long view.”

Xu Mu’s body transformed into nothingness, disappearing at the spot.

Not long after he left, Yun Mengyao rushed back again hurriedly. She broke into the room to confirm something, clearly having learned about Bai Xiaoxiao’s death through some method.

“Why kill Junior Sister Bai? Was he just passing by, or did he discover something?”
