Is Face More Important or Life More Important

Xu Mu was just agonizing over what to do with these rings.

After all, Hao Yang, Fu Jinyu, and Hongyu had all looked around the coffin.

Although Hao Yang was described as a madman, judging from the way he spoke, he wasn't that stupid.

As for Fu Jinyu and Hongyu, it goes without saying; they probably knew how many rings there were.

When they came back up and found that there were fewer rings, they would definitely ask questions and get suspicious.

At that time, treasures like spatial rings would be hard to divide among them.

There were two rings in total, and they were considered three separate factions.

But now that Fu Cheng and his men had arrived, he had an excuse.

Thus, Xu Mu smiled and looked at the few people in the distance, "Which one of you is Fu Cheng?"

"I am!"

Fu Cheng took a step forward and took off the hood of his black robe, revealing his sinister eyes. "Do you have something to say to me?"

"Yeah, I'm your daddy."

Xu Mu revealed a mocking expression.

"You are courting death!"

Fu Cheng roared in anger and instantly charged toward Xu Mu.

Xu Mu immediately grabbed Meng Wanyue and hid behind the coffin.

Boom!

Terrifying black energy instantly shattered the coffin into pieces.

Xu Mu chuckled. This way, they wouldn't care where the rings went.

At this time, the few people in the underground cave felt the power outside and emerged one after another.

Fu Jinyu spotted Fu Cheng at a glance. "Fu Cheng, you really linger like a ghost!"

"This time I sent someone to tail you, but I didn't expect you to find a ruin."

Fu Cheng let out a cold sneer.

"You sent someone to tail me? Whose strength is so great that I wouldn't notice?"

Fu Jinyu asked indifferently.

"Of course I know that besides me, no one can tail you. Since I couldn't tail you in the dark, I brought the tailing out into the open."

As Fu Cheng spoke, he smiled and looked at Hongyu.

Hearing this, Hongyu felt somewhat fortunate in her heart. Luckily, she had made a prompt decision earlier and taken the initiative to admit her mistake to Fu Jinyu.

Otherwise, only death would be waiting for her.

Fu Jinyu looked at Hongyu beside her. "Are you saying that Hongyu passed the information to you?"

"That's right. You've been kept in the dark all this time, haven't you? Your most trusted confidante is actually my person."

Fu Cheng threw his head back and laughed loudly.

Fu Jinyu's expression remained calm. "Is it really a good idea for you to just blurt it out? Fu Cheng, you're still not smart enough. By exposing her identity now, you won't be able to use her in the future."

"Do I need a little girl like you to teach me? I definitely won't need to use her in the future because you will undoubtedly die today!"

Fu Cheng sneered.

The last time Fu Jinyu was injured, he personally went to kill her. This had already brought their hostile relationship out into the open, making them completely incompatible like fire and water.

Fu Cheng had also made up his mind this time: succeed or die trying.

If he couldn't kill her this time, Fu Cheng would no longer return to the Heavenly Demon Tribe, but would instead take his people and directly break away.

While the two were talking, Hao Yang also walked up from the underground cave below.

Xu Mu smiled and asked, "Senior, are there any treasures down there?"

"Just some bronze wares, jewelry, and weapons. Nothing outstanding. Perhaps the owner of this tomb wasn't very powerful."

Hao Yang said, scratching his head.

"You can't say that. Maybe they were just pragmatic and left all the treasures to their descendants, only taking some trash to be buried with."

Xu Mu said with a smile.

"What you say makes sense."

As Hao Yang spoke, he looked up at the few people in front of him. "Are these guys here to kill this woman?"

"That's right. The three of them have a very strong lineup, so I'd like to ask Senior for help."

Xu Mu cupped his hands slightly.

Not much time had passed since Hongyu sent the message.

But the fact that the three of them caught up so quickly was enough to prove that one of them was an array master, and a powerful one at that.

At least, much more powerful than the array master Ye Chen had brought.

Of course, the main reason they were so fast was that he had broken the array from earlier.

Otherwise, with such a strong array, they probably would have been trapped as well.

"Help? I won't help! I already made it very clear just now. I will only agree to save her if this woman marries you and becomes your wife."

Hao Yang chuckled, "Otherwise, no way."

"Hmph! I don't need your help. I can handle it myself!"

Fu Jinyu sneered, and the power on her body erupted instantly. "Unseal!"

As soon as her voice fell, she lunged at Fu Cheng.

As for Meng Wanyue beside Xu Mu, she felt somewhat indignant in her heart.

With her original personality, she definitely wouldn't have asked, but this time, she mustered the courage to ask for the reason.

"Senior, why did you threaten to make her Brother Mu's wife? Why didn't you threaten me... or, Hongyu over there?"

To avoid embarrassment, after mentioning herself, she deliberately added the woman over there.

"Hahaha! Girl, are you joking?"

Hao Yang couldn't help but laugh out loud. "You're already this kid's wife to begin with. What would be the point of me saying that?"

Hearing this, Meng Wanyue's face instantly turned bright red. "I... I'm not."

"Even if you aren't now, you will be sooner or later."

Hao Yang couldn't help but laugh. "You like him, and everything will fall into place naturally. What's fun to watch about that?"

Hearing this, Xu Mu put his arm around Meng Wanyue's shoulders. "Senior, you have a really good eye for people."

Hearing this, Meng Wanyue's body suddenly trembled. This...

Was Brother Mu acknowledging her status in disguise?

"You two, what are you standing around for? Hurry up and join forces to finish her! As long as she's dead, everything will be over!"

Fu Cheng shouted at the remaining two black-robed men.

"Sigh, I really can't bear to be cruel to such a beauty. Fu Cheng, remember what you promised me. After crippling her, you have to give her to me."

One of the black-robed men pressed one hand on the ground, and runic lights flickered around his body.

Buzz!

An array slowly appeared on the ground.

Fu Jinyu and Fu Cheng, who were fighting in the sky, both had their bodies fall downwards uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Xu Mu felt a little surprised in his heart. This person was indeed an array master. He was able to completely draw a level-five gravity array in such a short amount of time.

With such methods, this person was definitely an advanced array master, level seven or above.

At this time, the array master patted the other black-robed person.

A small array appeared on the body of this black-robed person.

Whoosh!

This black-robed person rushed into the array. The gravity array seemed to have no effect on her.

In the blink of an eye, she appeared in front of Fu Jinyu. Fu Jinyu wanted to dodge, but her legs felt like they were filled with lead, causing her speed to drop, so she could only meet the attack head-on.

Swish!

This black-robed person flashed behind Fu Jinyu and struck out with a palm.

Boom!

The terrifying power caused the surroundings to totter, and Fu Jinyu was suddenly sent flying.

Fu Cheng immediately pursued. In an instant, Fu Jinyu fell into an absolute disadvantage.

"Senior! Please help save her. She already consumed a lot of Qi fighting you earlier, and now fighting one against three is very unfair to her."

Xu Mu cupped his hands toward Hao Yang again.

"Hehe! Even if you beg me, I won't agree. I want to see what's more important to her: her pride or her life."

Hao Yang grinned, showing absolutely no intention of making a move. He looked at Xu Mu. "Kid, you should thank me. You're definitely taking the hit for her today."
