Chapter 864

Threat

“Juicy roast thighs… Mm, roast duck… R-, ow!” Xiaoshuai, who rolled off his cosy, soft wooden bed and hit his nose, groggily sat up to check his surroundings.

“Good morning.”

Mu Yu ended his meditation session, feasting his eyes on the warm and vibrant forest. Xiaoshuai immediately climbed up to Mu Yu’s shoulder and rubbed his belly.

“Here.” Mu Yu offered Xiaoshuai two drumsticks and caressed the latter’s head, smiling for the first time in days.

“How long have I been asleep for?”

“Over a month?”

“Eh, not too bad, then. Anything fun happen while I was asleep?”

Mu Yu passed Xiaoshuai a roast golden-fur tiger fiend’s thigh once Xiaoshuai was done with the drumsticks. “I’ve located the ninth immortal…”

“Huh? He’s the ninth immortal?” exclaimed Xiaoshuai, once he was updated.

“I’m equally surprised.”

“You have things in place to stall him?” Xiaoshuai picked up a thigh he dropped to blow the dirt off and resumed eating.

“I’ve used every formation I can think of and used deployed strategies to prevent anything amd anyone locating him using Dragon Searching Formation. He also has a lightning skill protecting him that’s triggered whenever his life is endangered. I reckon the lightning skill is Reverend Nilei’s domain ability.”

“You know who Reverend Nilei is now?”

“He didn’t leave any traces. I can only presume he doesn’t want me to find him.”

“By the way, you’re a terrible chef. I’m going to prepare my own food.”

“How much of that day do you remember?”

“What?” Xiaoshuai asked, pouring wine onto the meat.

“The day you used our swords and had those visions. You forget?”

“Oh, when I went full alpha? No clue. For some reason, I feel down whenever I recall Old White Beard now,” answered Xiaoshuai, staring at the pill flame stone. He sprinkled some plat oil Mu Yu collected and added, “Don’t worry. We’ll be able to save him, hehe.”

“You’re right.” Mu Yu returned to meditating.

Ever since acquiring Bloodlust Energy, Mu Yu’s growth as a cultivator accelerated, already propelling him to Body Synthesis Realm Seventh Layer. If possible, he would not mind if it was accelerated even further due to his desire to take down Third Heaven Palace.

Mu Yu dropped by Sword Shadow City on his way to Ghost Gate to update himself on the cultivation world’s latest news as it had been two weeks since he was last in the desert. Apparently, Lie Shang was responsible for scorching dozens of kilometres worth of land near Clearwater City. Mu Yu was reportedly colluding with fiends to exterminate humans. Feng Haochen raised five disciples to ensure humankind went extinct and was the bane of mankind. Third Realm Palace was the greatest thing that happened to humanity.

“The flame killed hundreds of cultivators?” Xiaoshuai asked with his eyes wide.

Mu Yu shook his head. “The two of us took down one of Third Heaven Palace’s members. Another one of them must’ve done it and framed us.”

What really riled up Mu Yu, though, was that cultivators were planning to go after his family at Clearwater City to force him out of hiding. He was ready to raze a city to the ground if any of them dared to act on the thought.

“Mu Yu, let me at them,” effused Xiaoshuai, shadow boxing.

“All right,” responded Mu Yu, getting to his feet and ejecting bloodlust energy for a split second.

The cultivators trashing Mu Yu and company the inn they were at spun around upon feeling their hairs stand up, but they only saw a kid drinking tea. They brushed it off as nothing and turned back around. Suddenly, their eyes froze on the cups of tea in their hands. Their clear tea had turned bright red, and more red droplets were still falling in.

Thud! The three cultivators flopped onto their table, blood spilling from the hole in their foreheads – courtesy of Xiaoshuai.

Xiaoshuai, returned to his usual form on their way to Clearwater City, assured, “Relax. Formation Sect is protecting your family, aren’t they? Besides, Xiang Nan is controlling everyone in the city. He promised to protect your family, didn’t he?”

“It’s not the denizens of Clearwater City who are after my city. I reckon the entire world is after them by now. I bet plenty of adepts are already racing to the city,” impugned Mu Yu, forcibly pushing his cultivation limit to make it home in time.

Sensing a powerful presence at Mu Estate, Mu Yu hastened through the city, bloodlust energy warding everyone off.

“Where’s everyone?” Mu Yu questioned in a low voice.

“Mu Yu?” Mu Tianhe went to gaily welcome his grandson but stopped in fear upon sensing Mu Yu dripping with malice.

“Are you all right, Grandpa? Where’s everyone else?”

“Wh-what happened to you?” stuttered Mu Tianhe, shaken up.

Xiaoshuai tapped Mu Tianhe on the shoulder so that the bloodlust energy would not impact the elder.

“Where’s everyone else, Grandpa?”

“Brother Mu Yu!” cheered Mu Xin, jumping onto Mu Yu without any qualms about his bloodlust energy.

“Mu Xin.” Mu Yu forcibly reduced his bloodlust energy.

Mu Xin took Mu Yu’s hand and queried, “Will you be staying this time?”

Mu Zhexing walked up close and asked, “What happened to you, Mu Yu?”

Everyone who rushed to the scene upon sensing the malice thought an intruder had trespassed into their property.

“Is everyone all right?”

Xiaoshuai touched Mu Yu’s ear to take Mu Yu’s bloodlust energy level down.

“Sorry, I thought someone harmed you.” Mu Yu purposely avoided making eye contact with his family while he used Archfiend Baiyuan’s fiend energy to hide his bloodlust energy. “I sense a powerful presence here. Has anyone threatened you?”

Relieved, Mu Tianhe responded, “A group of foreign cultivators did witch hunt us a few days ago. Luckily, our in-law drove them off?”

“Our who?”

“You don’t even recognise your father-in-law’s qi now, Son? Let’s see how tall you’ve grown,” teased Archfiend Baiyuan, strolling into the hall and helping himself to a seat.

Mu Yu quietly exhaled relief then switched his tone in reverse. “Father-in-law?”
