Chapter 352
Escape and Pursuit
Despite the thunder looking to crack the air, rain did not fall.
As Ku Mu deleted the formations at Ku Mu Valley, even the poisonous mist had begun its journey beyond. The faint golden light from the ragged sky began to reduce the moist in the valley.
Twenty-one year old Tian Wanming had to pick his jaw up after witnessing Tian Budai dispatched the two bodyguards without a warm-up.
Ku Mu remained unresponsive. No matter, for Tian Budai didn’t see any reason to fear a Golden Core Realm cultivator. Humbly, Tian Budai stated, “Elder Ku Mu Changqing, I have a favour to ask of you.”
Still not receiving a response, Tian Budai took a step forward. To his surprise, the ground rippled as if he stepped into water. He looked back up to Ku Mu and blasted brown spiritual energy toward Ku Mu, an attack that should’ve been lethal even against Body Severing Realm cultivators. Unexpectedly, the spiritual energy splattered as if it hit a rock. Ku Mu crumbled and vanished into the air.
“An illusion formation? Now I know why he told me not to underestimate Eternally Youthful Ku Mu. I didn’t know he was a formations expert. Nonetheless, he knew you would set a formation to escape. Of course, that means we came prepared for you. You won’t be able to use powerful formations enough times at your current level, unfortunately.”
The white light in Tian Budai’s hand switched to red. If one was to look closely, they’d see savage scowls inside the freckles of light that made up the big botch.
“Wan Tiaming, wait here for me. I shall collect Elder Eternally Youthful Ku Mu.”
“You want to blackmail him with me as your hostage?”
The approachable smile on Tian Budai’s face gave Ku Mu bad vibes. Tian Budai didn’t scare him, but a Spirit Severing Realm cultivator would demolish Mu Yu.
Ku Mu wondered how Mu Yu offending Tian Budai.
“Should you seek death, I shall gladly oblige.”
Ku Mu took out his maroon gem. “You think I’ll just let you kidnap me?”
“I know that you are formidable and superior to Formation Sect’s formation masters. Sadly, you are no longer the same Eternally Youthful Ku Mu. I, therefore, suggest you do not resist.”
“Is that right?”
Ku Mu never subscribed to surrendering and waiting for death, nor was he going to sign up to be Mu Yu’s burden.
A green leaf landed on Ku Mu’s shoulder, yet it appeared as if it landed on water.
