The Betrayal of Shi Fumeng

Wang Hun looked at Xu Mu through his laptop. He smiled and shook his head, "No need for now. According to normal logic, after narrowly escaping death, he should hide his identity. But he is standing there openly. Don't you find that strange?"

"Does Mr. Soul mean he is doing it on purpose?"

"How would I know? Anyway, he definitely has a way to save his own life. It's the perfect chance to let the senior's people test him and see what hidden cards he has."

Wang Hun said with a smile, "After that, I will go and kill him."

"Mr. Soul is truly cautious."

The woman sighed softly.

"When I do things, I like to be absolutely certain."

Wang Hun continued to stare at the screen.

...

Rumble!

At the same time, the great battle began.

Aside from the powerful corpses controlled by the black-robed man.

There were also those alien experts who felt no pain, as well as the bald defensive man brought by Mr. Soul.

These people came out in full force, slaughtering the experts who had entered the area.

Boom!

Right at this moment, a massive golden axe appeared in the distant sky.

Seeing this, Xu Mu immediately rushed over.

After getting closer, he didn't see Chen Xuan's face, but instead noticed the urea woven bag on his back.

That was undoubtedly Chen Xuan.

"Old Chen!"

Xu Mu shouted loudly.

Chen Xuan, who was fighting in the distance, heard the voice and immediately turned his head, spotting Xu Mu's figure.

He quickly approached Xu Mu, "Brother Mu, are you okay?"

"I'm fine for now, but I might not be in a little while."

Xu Mu led Chen Xuan back to Fu Jinyu's side.

Although the island was large, it simply could not withstand the attacks of these experts.

The place had long been torn apart, and seawater was flowing into the interior of the island through the cracks.

For Shi Fumeng, this was a good thing.

She manipulated the surrounding seawater, turning it into giant waves to attack the enemies around her.

Fu Jinyu, on the other hand, stayed by Xu Mu's side, slaying these enemies.

From time to time, Xu Mu cast his gaze on Wu Tian. If this place was prepared for him,

He might find some fortuitous encounter.

Xu Mu had to follow him the entire time. If there were treasures, he and Chen Xuan would take the initiative to snatch them away first.

"Not bad, not bad."

The black-robed old man standing above the palace scanned the battle before him, "There are many experts this time. Then let's switch tactics. Let's bag these experts first."

As soon as he finished speaking, the battlefield suddenly changed. One of the Supreme Elders of the Profound Heaven Sect suddenly charged toward Fu Jinyu.

As for Shi Fumeng, she was also entangled by a Supreme Elder.

Obviously, their goal was to take out the top experts first.

Swish!

An early Mortal Shedding realm alien sliced open the neck of an intermediate cleaner with a dagger.

He collapsed to the ground on the spot, losing his breath.

But the next moment, red Gu bugs drilled out of the ground, crawling into his body through his mouth.

In just a dozen seconds, his body stood back up and began to slaughter the other cleaners.

Boom!

On the other side, Shi Fumeng's water currents were instantly shattered, and an old man struck her chest with a palm.

"Ugh!"

Shi Fumeng spat out a mouthful of blood, her body flying backward and crashing into a distant hillside.

Her face was deathly pale. Even with Heaven-grade cultivation techniques, they were useless when facing someone far superior.

Swish!

The next moment, that Supreme Elder turned into a streak of light and attacked Shi Fumeng again.

Seeing this, Shi Fumeng tried to dodge, but a sudden sharp pain in one of her legs made her a beat too slow.

Her face was filled with fear. "Oh no! Could it be that I'm going to..."

Crack!

Just in the nick of time, Xu Mu suddenly rushed over, executing a God-grade technique, and slashed his sword in front of the old man.

Because of this, Shi Fumeng dodged the attack. Her heart pounded like thunder, and she breathed rapidly, "Xu Mu, thank you..."

[Favorability +10]

Xu Mu looked at the old man in front of him. From what the black-robed man said just now, this person was a Supreme Elder of the Profound Heaven Sect.

But after taking a sword strike, why did he suddenly stop moving?

Just as Xu Mu was deep in thought, another bald man attacked him from behind.

"Brother Mu, watch out!"

Chen Xuan shouted quickly from a distance.

Xu Mu's perception had already noticed it. He tentatively spoke, "I am your master!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, the old man turned into a streak of light and charged at the bald man.

With a single punch, he pierced through the bald man's powerful body.

Seeing this, Xu Mu's heart jolted. He immediately used the Eye of God to inspect the old man.

He found that he could indeed see his information.

Name: Wang Jiafu

Status: Deceased, former Third Supreme Elder of the Profound Heaven Sect

Favorability: 0

Destiny Level: 0 (Max Level 10)

Xu Mu then checked the other party's mental power, and it was exactly as he had guessed.

His physique stats were still there, but his mental power was 0.

Xu Mu's God-grade technique specifically targeted mental power.

Faced with someone lacking mental power like this, he could control them at will.

Thinking of this, Xu Mu suddenly pointed at the old man fighting Fu Jinyu in the distance.

"That woman is my wife. That old geezer is bullying your master's wife, get him!"

Whoosh!

As soon as Xu Mu finished speaking, the old man instantly dashed over.

In the distance, Shi Fumeng and Chen Xuan saw all of this, having no idea what was happening.

At this time, Xu Mu executed his Cloud Steps and chased after them. Taking advantage of the fight between the two, he fired another Mirror-Breaking Sword, hitting the other person.

"Stop fighting, I am your master."

Xu Mu said to the two of them. They quickly stopped fighting and stood there, motionless.

"Xu Mu, what's going on?"

Fu Jinyu was also a bit dumbfounded. The old man in front of her was incredibly strong; even though he was dead, she had been forced into a disadvantage.

Why did Xu Mu control him with a single sword strike?

Xu Mu shook his head, "There's no time to explain now!"

Ever since the black-robed man changed his tactics, the people here were mostly dead.

After all, when experts slaughtered the weak, it was over in just a move or two.

For example, just now, if he hadn't intervened, Shi Fumeng would have died in two moves.

"Follow me!"

He controlled the two old men and hurried toward Hu Qingyun in the distance.

He was already heavily injured, and now he was no match for Shen Cangzhen at all.

Along the way, Xu Mu used the Mirror-Breaking Sword to recruit a few more underlings.

"Senior! I am Xu Mu!"

Xu Mu shouted from afar.

Hu Qingyun, who was resisting the attacks, had heard this name. He looked at Xu Mu and said sternly, "Leave quickly! You shouldn't be here!"

But Xu Mu ignored him and charged at Shen Cangzhen. With a slash of his sword, he too became motionless.

"I am your master. That person destroyed your families and ruined your lives, kill him!"

Xu Mu pointed at the black-robed man up high.

Swish, swish, swish!

These people all charged toward the black-robed man.

Hu Qingyun was stunned. What on earth was going on?

The black-robed man up high realized he couldn't control these corpses at all. He then clapped his hands, and a red light appeared on them.

The people charging at him all froze, then collapsed to the ground.

Through his perception, Xu Mu discovered that the Gu bugs on their bodies had all detached, turning these people back into lifeless corpses.

"Interesting. To think you could reverse-control my Holy Gu. You really deserve to die!"

As soon as the black-robed man finished speaking, he instantly lunged at Xu Mu.

Seeing this, Hu Qingyun immediately moved to block the attack.

But the next moment, his body jolted violently, and he was sent crashing into a distant hillside.

"Even high-level cleaners vary in strength. Do you think you are Wei Jingzhi?"

The black-robed man sneered, then stared at the group in the distance. "Xu Mu, is it? They seem to be with you."

"What are you trying to do?"

Xu Mu looked toward Fu Jinyu, Chen Xuan, and the others in the distance.

"You controlled my people just now, so I am going to control your companions too."

The black-robed man looked at the distant group. "Which of you is willing to stand by my side and help me kill this kid? Whoever does gets to live. I can swear an oath that I absolutely will not lay a hand on you."

"Hmph! And what if we do not agree?"

Fu Jinyu snorted coldly.

"Do not agree? Then I will kill you first!"

The black-robed man clenched his fists, and the power within his body suddenly erupted. The terrifying oppressive force made everyone present go weak in the knees.

Amelia's face turned as pale as paper. "This is... the peak of the Mortal Shedding realm! No, it is even stronger!"

"Senior, I agree!"

Wu Tian quickly ran toward him. "He and I were enemies to begin with."

"Is there no one else? Then I will start the slaughter."

"I... I agree too."

Shi Fumeng raised her hand, her eyes rimmed red.
