Liang Yi, would you like to work for me

Xu Mu pulled Zhou Guoqiang into the courtyard of his villa and said to him, "Answer it, and put it on speaker."

Zhou Guoqiang nodded and immediately answered the phone, "Hello."

"Zhou Guoqiang, right? I'm already at the entrance of the villa area. Where are you now? Come pick me up immediately."

A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Xu Mu frowned; he felt that this voice was somewhat familiar.

However, because the sound quality over the phone was slightly different from a real person's voice, Xu Mu couldn't identify it.

"My Lord, I'm right inside. I'll come find you now."

After Zhou Guoqiang finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

"Let's go together."

As Xu Mu spoke, he used an illusion array to change his appearance, turning himself into a middle-aged man.

Seeing this, Zhou Guoqiang was shocked to the core. This Xu Mu was truly worthy of being the person Wang Hun personally wanted to kill.

The two walked together toward the outside of the villa area.

However, Xu Mu didn't walk side by side with Zhou Guoqiang. Instead, he followed behind him, pretending to be a passerby.

Anyway, he didn't need to follow too closely, as long as the person was within his perception range.

When they arrived at the main gate of the villa area, Xu Mu couldn't be bothered to go over.

Because he had already seen who the visitor was, and he actually knew this person.

The other party had long black hair, wore black casual clothes, and had a petite face.

But she had a pair of very fierce eyes.

She was in her early twenties. What drew attention was her two ears.

Small red sword tassels hung from them, with the ends of the tassels drooping down onto her shoulders.

The person was none other than Liang Yi. Xu Mu remembered that she was the third captain of the Disciplinary Department at the Immortality Research Institute.

Moreover, she was also a member of his judo club. He didn't expect Wang Hun to send her here.

Xu Mu didn't continue to follow her; instead, he used his perception to see what her purpose was.

Zhou Guoqiang had already arrived in front of Liang Yi. With a respectful expression, he said, "My Lord, my name is Zhou Guoqiang. I'm Boss Zhang's..."

"No need for introductions. I'm not interested in your identity."

Liang Yi interrupted Zhou Guoqiang, "You can go back now. Leave Xu Mu's mission to me."

Zhou Guoqiang thought for a moment and nodded slightly, "Follow me, I'll point out Xu Mu's house to you."

Liang Yi agreed and followed behind him.

Xu Mu returned to the front of his villa first, considering how to deal with Liang Yi.

This person was not the female lead, but her Destiny Level was level four, so she wasn't an ordinary person either.

Suddenly, Xu Mu raised his left hand and mobilized his power.

The small Gu worm he had retrieved from Tong Guoguo last time had been devoured by the mother body, so he wanted to see if it would produce more small Gu worms.

After he used his power, the mother body of the Spirit-Devouring Holy Gu released two whole small Gu worms.

Xu Mu was surprised in his heart. It seemed that swallowing the corpses of many strong experts had enhanced its power.

However, to deal with Liang Yi, just one Gu worm would be enough.

In the blink of an eye, Zhou Guoqiang and Liang Yi appeared before him.

Zhou Guoqiang also noticed Xu Mu's figure. He led Liang Yi to Xu Mu's door, "This is Xu Mu's house."

"I know. You can go back now. Leave the rest to me."

Liang Yi waved her hand at Zhou Guoqiang.

At the same time, Xu Mu also walked toward Liang Yi. With his current cultivation realm, dealing with Liang Yi would be a piece of cake.

Swish!

When he was two meters away from Liang Yi, his figure suddenly accelerated.

Before Liang Yi could react, Xu Mu covered her nose from behind.

The small Holy Gu drilled into her body through her nostrils.

Liang Yi had already taken out a dagger. Just as she was about to attack, Xu Mu immediately let go and took a few steps back.

He smiled and said, "Sorry, beauty. I mistook you for someone else."

While he was speaking, he had already used the Spirit-Devouring Holy Gu to devour the Qi inside Liang Yi's body.

Liang Yi didn't believe Xu Mu's nonsense at all. With such fast speed just now, she hadn't even been able to react. The person in front of her was definitely not ordinary.

Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly found that the Qi in her body was draining rapidly.

Even though she hadn't even fought yet.

"You... what did you just do to me?"

Liang Yi stared at Xu Mu, her expression full of panic.

Because Xu Mu was still using the illusion array, she didn't know that the person in front of her was Xu Mu.

"I just mistook you for someone else. What could I do to you?"

Xu Mu smiled and shrugged.

"You're courting death!"

Liang Yi gritted her teeth and swiftly attacked Xu Mu, but before she even reached him, she realized that the Qi inside her body had completely vanished.

Swish!

Xu Mu easily grabbed Liang Yi's wrist and snatched the dagger from her hand.

He looked at Zhou Guoqiang and said, "You go back first. Do what you need to do. If you ever run out of wine in the future, come find me."

"Thank you."

After Zhou Guoqiang finished speaking, he turned and left.

Xu Mu then grabbed Liang Yi and took her back to his villa.

After closing the main door, Xu Mu dispelled the array on his body.

When Liang Yi saw the person in front of her, her face filled with shock, "Xu Mu! You're not dead?"

"I haven't lived enough yet, so why would I die? However, you might be dying soon."

Xu Mu smiled and looked at Liang Yi, "Tell me, what did Wang Hun send you here for?"

"I'm not qualified to receive orders directly from Mr. Soul. My master sent me here just to confirm whether you were dead or not."

As Liang Yi spoke, she forcefully clenched her fists and found that there was still not a single trace of Qi in her meridians.

She didn't know what had happened, but she couldn't be bothered to resist anymore, so she simply found a chair in the courtyard and sat down.

"Do you want to die?"

Xu Mu suddenly asked.

"Of course I don't want to die!"

Liang Yi shook her head, "If I wanted to die, I wouldn't be working so hard for the Immortality Research Institute."

"If you are willing to work for me from now on, I can spare your life."

Xu Mu said with a smile.

Regardless, this Liang Yi could be considered a talent. At her age, she was already at the peak of the mid-stage Divine Power realm.

Although Meng Wanyue and Dai Xingluo were also at the mid-stage Divine Power realm.

But those two had relied on Xu Mu's medicinal pills to level up. Liang Yi might have had pills too, but they were definitely not as good as the ones they took.

"If I follow you, there's no need for Mr. Soul to kill me; I would die without a doubt anyway."

"You... drank the poisoned wine?"

Xu Mu looked at Liang Yi and asked.

"That's right. Back then, my master took a few disciples and joined the Immortality Research Institute together. Mr. Soul saw that my master was an expert, so he didn't make him drink it, but all of us disciples drank it."

Liang Yi sighed. Perhaps knowing that she was going to die, the fierceness in her eyes from before had long faded.

"What if I can provide you with the poisoned wine?"

Xu Mu looked at Liang Yi and said, "I have already cracked the production process of the poisoned wine, and I can produce it right now."

"What? You can actually make the poisoned wine?"

Liang Yi's face was full of disbelief, and then she whispered, "No wonder Mr. Soul wants to kill you. Mastering the poisoned wine means you've practically mastered more than half of the core strength of the Immortality Research Institute."

"Are you in or out?"

Xu Mu looked at Liang Yi, "Give me time, and I might even be able to help you cure your addiction to the wine."

"What?"

Hearing this, Liang Yi found it even more unbelievable, "You... you can cure the wine addiction?"

If Xu Mu wasn't lying to her, she would definitely follow him without any hesitation.
