"That's right, don't let my build fool you, I'm not up for it."
Xu Mu nodded along, remembering that his daughter was Lin Qianzhu, wasn't she?
Incredibly narcissistic, and the key point was she didn't even have the capital for that narcissism. He really didn't want any 'back-to-back hugging'.
[Favorability +10]
Dai Xingluo smiled at Xu Mu, never expecting he could hold back even when faced with the sect leader's daughter.
While the Heavenly Sword Sect wasn't a top-tier sect, it still had considerable heritage.
Hearing this, Lin Tianlu couldn't help but look at Xu Mu. "Aren't you a divine doctor? How can you be weak yourself?"
"That has nothing to do with being a divine doctor. No matter how much you replenish, you can't keep up with excessive depletion."
As Xu Mu spoke, he couldn't help but glance at Dai Xingluo.
Dai Xingluo's pretty face flushed red, and she spat out, "Then it must be this little sister's fault."
Lin Tianlu looked at Dai Xingluo with an understanding expression.
"Elder Kong, return!"
Lin Tianlu shouted into the distance.
Kong Liuke, who was preparing to continue fighting, immediately stopped and returned to Lin Tianlu's side.
"Sect Leader."
Kong Liuke called out in a low voice.
"Since Elder Zhao says he wants to investigate the traitor, then let him investigate."
As Lin Tianlu spoke, he turned his head and said, "Xiao Min, push me back."
"Alright."
Huang Min glared at Zhao Yide in the distance before finally pushing the wheelchair back into the palace.
Xu Mu and the others followed them inside.
Lin Tianlu looked at Kong Liuke. "Give this Qi Sea Pill to Xu Mu and have him go to Reckless Mountain."
"Sect Leader, such a valuable item..."
"Listen to me."
Lin Tianlu cut off Kong Liuke's words.
Dai Xingluo on the side almost spoke up; it was just a Qi Sea Pill, her brother wouldn't even look twice at it.
Kong Liuke handed the small wooden box to Xu Mu.
"Oh, by the way, where is this Reckless Mountain?"
Xu Mu asked curiously.
"Not far from here. Here's a map, take a picture of it."
Kong Liuke took out his phone and opened a map.
Xu Mu took out his phone and photographed the map. "It's so late now, do you think I can complete the transaction smoothly?"
"Yes. That sect specializes in robbery and plunder, then sells the goods to outsiders. It's essentially an underground exchange."
Kong Liuke explained. "But because all their activities are within the ruins and don't harm ordinary people, the Cleaners find it hard to take action against them."
"What about other sects? Don't they seek revenge?"
Xu Mu remembered that this place wasn't mentioned in the plot.
"Usually, the robbers wear masks, so no one knows exactly who they are. In the end, the treasures just end up in their hands."
Kong Liuke shook his head slightly. "They also keep ledgers, claiming all the treasures were bought with money. However, some major sects can retrieve their items with just a token gesture."
"For them to survive until now, they must have their unique strengths."
Xu Mu smiled. "Then I'll head over right now."
"Brother, I'll go with you."
Dai Xingluo said from the side.
"I think it's best you don't go."
Huang Min looked at Dai Xingluo. "That place is very unfriendly towards women, especially beauties like you. It would bring trouble."
Hearing this, Dai Xingluo gently brushed her hair, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Xingluo, why don't you wait for me here? It wouldn't be convenient for you to come along."
Xu Mu decided to end this farce sooner. If Dai Xingluo followed him to Reckless Mountain and somehow provoked others there, it would only waste more time.
"Alright."
Dai Xingluo nodded. "Brother, be careful on the road."
"Don't worry. Zhao Yide will only be keeping an eye on the three here, he won't follow me."
Xu Mu walked out of the palace gate and quickly ran towards the side.
Zhao Yide in the distance naturally spotted Xu Mu and immediately said to the elder beside him, "It's that kid! Catch him now!"
"Yes!"
The two men there immediately gave chase.
Xu Mu was now hiding in the mountain forest. He never expected the array techniques he had mastered would come in handy so soon.
He closed his eyes, and several array runes flickered around his body.
He activated an Illusion Array.
This time, he only applied the array's effect to his own body. He transformed into a man just over 1.6 meters tall with a stout build.
Even his clothes changed accordingly.
Of course, it was all just an illusion. He only looked 1.6 meters tall, but if someone touched the space above his head, they could still feel his actual body.
"Who's there!"
The two men from earlier caught up.
Xu Mu had also altered his voice. He hurriedly cupped his hands in salute. "Elder, my apologies, I shouldn't have been relieving myself here."
"Did you see a person just now?"
One of the middle-aged men questioned.
"I did. He ran that way."
Xu Mu randomly pointed in a direction.
The two elders immediately chased in that direction without a hint of suspicion towards Xu Mu.
After all, one was 1.85 meters, the other 1.6 meters.
They were completely different people; such a disguise was simply impossible.
Seeing them go far away, Xu Mu quickly left the area under cover of night.
When he reached the entrance to the ruins, Xu Mu found it was also blocked.
The leader was a black-haired elder. Through his perception, he could hear voices; they all called him the Second Elder.
Xu Mu wasn't flustered at all. He opened his storage space, took out a black robe, and put it on.
Taking a deep breath, Xu Mu swiftly charged towards the ruins entrance.
"Halt! Or I will attack!"
The Second Elder of the Green Wood Mountain, seeing someone rushing forward, erupted with power.
He lunged at Xu Mu, but as soon as he got within twenty meters, Xu Mu's figure vanished.
Xu Mu didn't slow down. While the surrounding people were bewildered, he had already successfully exited the ruins.
Arriving at the supermarket outside, Xu Mu was still maintaining his Concealment Barrier.
The few disciples here only felt a gust of wind before Xu Mu had already opened the door and left.
"My escape skills are pretty good now."
Xu Mu glanced at the map, then ran down the mountain to his car.
With his current physique, even after running for so long, he wasn't out of breath when he sat in the car.
After starting the car, he followed the map. The journey would only take about an hour.
...
Reckless Mountain.
Located east of the Heavenly Sword Sect. After arriving, Xu Mu parked his car.
The place was relatively easy to find because the entrance to Reckless Mountain was at a hotel at the foot of the mountain, reachable directly by navigation.
Xu Mu entered the hotel. A server walked over with a smile.
"Sir, checking in?"
"I'm here to buy something."
Xu Mu was still wearing the black robe and had deliberately altered his voice.
As he spoke, he raised his hand, and dots of light appeared on the back of it.
Seeing this, the server's expression immediately turned respectful. "Please follow me."
Xu Mu followed the server to a private room where there was a hidden door.
However, the hidden door was open, revealing a cave entrance right ahead.
"Please."
After saying this, the server proactively withdrew.
Without another word, Xu Mu walked into the cave.
The cave was quite advanced, even wired with electricity and lit by lamps.
After walking nearly five hundred meters, he entered the ruins.
The scene that greeted his eyes left even Xu Mu momentarily stunned.
Late at night, the inside was far livelier than the outside, with lights twinkling in the distance.
There were dozens of people gathered in small groups, eating barbecue.
"Damn it! You ugly brat, you can't even open a bottle properly!"
A brawny man stripped to the waist kicked a girl in the stomach, sending her sprawling to the ground on the spot.
The others around didn't try to stop him; instead, they laughed and jeered loudly.
Xu Mu quickly walked over and helped up the girl in an apron, her hair tied in twin tails. "Are you okay?"
When he saw the girl's face, Xu Mu's brow furrowed slightly.
Her features were delicate, but her appearance was somewhat startling.
