“Another noble family is gone from the East Continent! Fighting against demons is both difficult and dangerous!”
Several people shook their heads in dismay.
“Should we take action?” One of them asked.
The others bowed their heads in silence, pretending as if they didn’t hear the question.
“If we don’t take action, the Evil Gang will just continue to develop and grow. At that time, we will not be a match for them.” The same person spoke again.
“The Xu Family is very strong. If the Xu Family recovers its strength, how can we continue to steal resources?”
“Ha ha! Do you think we will be able to steal resources if the Evil Gang rises up?”
“If we take action and die here, what about our families?”
There was silence again.
“The Evil Gang managed to become so powerful because of all your indulgence!” The person angrily turned and left.
The others glanced at that person, then turned back to stare at Mu Yangcheng.
“The origin of the Xu Family is so mysterious. If you can use them to deal with the Evil Gang, it will be mutually beneficial!”
“That’s just your wishful thinking. No matter how mysterious they are, could they possibly be more mysterious than a demon?”
The mountain fell quiet again.
Countless Evil Gang masters flew over the walls of Muyang City.
Whoosh!
Arrows shot out from the city.
While the masters in front managed to avoid the arrows, several demon disciples were killed.
As a result, the masters of the Evil Gang rushed into the city and killed all the archers.
“The Evil Gang is so fierce. We can’t protect Muyang City.”
Several people shook their heads.
They were all pessimistic about Xu Family’s defense of Muyang City.
Things were turning out like how everyone had expected.
Muyang City tried its best to stop the Evil Gang.
A large number of demons entered the city.
Several of the demon masters scanned Muyang City with a smile on their faces.
Soon, they found a figure sitting cross-legged on a high-rise building in Muyang City.
There was a bottle of wine in front of the person.
“Is it a master?”
Whoosh!
Two demon masters flew towards the figure.
In the attic, Li Mu reached out his hand to summon the Phoenix Blood Sword as he sipped on the rice wine.
As he put down the wine glass, the two demons appeared before him.
“Are the two of you are here to drink too?”
Gulp!
Without looking up at the two of them, Li Mu lifted the bottle and poured wine into the glasses.
The two of them frowned.
This person didn’t even look at them.
“How are you related to the Xu Family in Muyang City?”
Both of them wore black clothes and masks on their faces.
This was similar to the outfit of Zhao Laoqi’s subordinates in the Black Dragon Gang.
However, there was an extra piece of cloth covering their faces.
Only their eyes were exposed.
“Which shameless families in the East Continent are you from?”
The two of them narrowed their eyes and shouted, “Go and die!”
But they quickly found out that they couldn’t control their own bodies.
“Sigh! How can the East Continent have the power to suppress the Evil Gang? It must be the result of collusion between some families and the Evil Gang!”
Li Mu drew his sword and waved it gently.
The heads of the two demons fell.
The two Virtual Realm masters of the Evil Gang died just like that.
Swiftly and silently.
After killing them, Li Mu kicked their bodies aside and continued to monitor the Xu Family.
Just then, five elders appeared in the Xu Family, and a ray of light rose above Muyang City.
“A formation?” Li Mu’s eyes lit up.
In this part of the world, formations were extremely rare.
Only some families would have inherited one or two sets of formations.
And these were all the guard families.
There was also a set of formations over the entire Muyang City.
This wasn’t the same as those formations in Forbidden Grounds.
This formation seemed to be both offensive and defensive.
“Demons, go and die!” The black robed bearded elder of the Xu Family shouted as he killed the demons.
The other elders rushed towards the demons with knives and sticks as well.
Splat!
Blood sprayed everywhere.
After the two Virtual Realm masters of the Evil Gang had been silently beheaded by Li Mu, the others were no match for the five Virtual Realm masters of the Xu family.
In just a moment, the attackers became the attacked.
The disciples of the Evil Gang were defeated.
Many disciples had already began to retreat when they saw the five Virtual Realm masters come out of the Xu Family, and when the Virtual Realm masters of the Evil Gang didn’t reappear.
When they didn’t see their Virtual Realm masters again, they knew that it was over.
It didn’t matter whether they were hiding or had been killed.
They realized that it was a mistake to enter Muyang City.
“Retreat quickly! Before the Xu Family kills us!”
“Escape!”
The Evil Gang retreated as quickly as they had arrived.
However, when they reached the city wall, they found that they could no longer escape.
The formation on the wall not only protected them against the outside world, it also prevented others from escaping.
The demons found themselves trapped in Muyang City.
“It’s a trap!”
“Kill them!”
“Don’t kill me!”
They screamed, one after another.
Muyang City became hell on earth.
In order to escape, some disciples of the Evil Gang began to consume the blood and essence of their fellow disciples.
Soon, several half-step Virtual Realm masters appeared among the demons.
These newly promoted half-step Virtual Realm masters rushed to the city wall and attempted to break the formation.
Boom!
The formation only grew stronger.
They couldn’t destroy the formation, no matter how hard they tried.
“Interesting!”
In the attic, Li Mu poured another glass of wine and savored it slowly.
Soon, Xu Family’s elders dealt with the remaining demon masters in the city. The saint-level demons were all left to the Xu Family’s disciples and the other people in the city.
The five Virtual Realm masters worked together to kill the masters.
After a while, the demon masters at the Perfected Person level and above disappeared from Muyang City.
Then, the five of them flew to the attic with swords and sticks in hand.
They stared at Li Mu for a long while.
“Senior!”
The five of them knelt down onto one knee.
“Carry on! I’m just observing things!” Li Mu waved his hands and said.
“Yes, senior!”
They glanced at each other, then returned to Xu Family’s house.
All five of them were monitoring the two Virtual Realm demons.
They had witnessed how the two of them had been easily beheaded by Li Mu.
The five Virtual Realm masters didn’t even need to take action.
After seeing Li Mu kill them, all the elders of the Xu Family were shocked.
“He easily killed the two Virtual Realm masters of the Evil Gang before they had time to react. This person must be at least the peak of the Virtual Realm!”
“There has never been such a master in the East Continent before.”
“I wonder why he came to Muyang City?” In the underground palace, an elder of the Xu Family said solemnly.
“It doesn’t matter. We’ll ask him another day. Now, our plan can continue!”
After half a day, the five elders of the Xu Family headed out to kill again.
Meanwhile, an old man arrived in the attic where Li Mu was.
Carrying a bottle of wine, the old man walked across to Li Mu. Startled, he stared at Li Mu for a long while. After regaining his senses, he hurriedly bowed and said, “Senior!”
“Since you are here, take a seat.”
Li Mu had seen him before in the underground palace.
He had the highest cultivation level in the Xu Family.
He was a ninth level Virtual Realm master!
“Thank you, senior.”
The old man sat down respectfully, then poured two glasses of wine, and pushed one towards Li Mu.
Li Mu took the wine and downed it.
Then, he grinned at the old man opposite him.
“It’s good wine!”
After drinking the wine, his stomach was filled with prenatal qi.
“Hehe! It’s good wine indeed!” The old man took a sip too.
“Why have you come?”
“Senior, you are not from this world, right?”
He filled Li Mu’s glass with wine.
“Huh?” Li Mu stared at the old man, startled.
The Xu Family was really very mysterious.
He could even tell that he was not from this world.
No!
Only his soul was not from this world.
“Looks like I was right!”
