I dare to marry Xu Mu, do you dare

As expected of the Jiuli tribe, her eyes were red. He didn't expect the "eyes" of her giant beasts to be pink too.

Xu Mu sighed in admiration; it truly leaked a domineering aura.

This was by far the most terrifying thing he had ever seen, bar none.

Perhaps due to her cultivation realm, or maybe calculating by the Jiuli tribe's age standards, Li Chenshuang was still very young.

The fierce beasts before him were incredibly full, like white jade, seemingly radiating a soft luster.

She gave off a very strange feeling. Logically, these things would make someone look bloated or fat.

But Li Chenshuang didn't have that at all; instead, she gave off a plump but not overly heavy appearance.

"Xu Mu, why aren't you hurrying up with the treatment? What are you looking at?"

Fu Jinyu reminded him.

Meanwhile, Li Chenshuang had long since squeezed her eyes shut, too embarrassed to look at what was happening.

"I'm just looking for the acupuncture points. These fierce beasts are really in the way, constantly blocking my line of sight. I hate this kind of thing the most. If it pushes me too far, I'll just eat them."

Xu Mu snorted coldly and began to apply the needles.

To make his performance seem more authentic, Xu Mu didn't just stick the needles in randomly.

Instead, he stimulated acupuncture points that would accelerate the heart rate and heat up the body.

The leftover medicinal dregs he used were also natural treasures that increased strength.

In a short amount of time, the several purple patches on Li Chenshuang's body had all been pierced with silver needles. Then, he applied an ointment.

"Xu Mu, she has them on her back too,"

Fu Jinyu pointed out.

Xu Mu nodded, then moved to her back, finding three patches there. Then there was her rear, which also had purple marks.

After simply placing a few needles on her back, Xu Mu moved to her peaches and studied them carefully.

"Don't disturb me. The capillaries here are extremely rich. If I'm not careful, I'll pierce the wrong spot,"

Xu Mu said with a solemn face.

Finally, he precisely inserted the silver needles.

Once everything was finished, Xu Mu deactivated the array formation on her body. As the level-seven array shattered, all of her marks disappeared as well.

Li Chenshuang suddenly opened her eyes. She hadn't expected the results to be so immediate.

She had been dizzy just a moment ago, but now she was completely fine.

"You should be all better now, right?"

Xu Mu asked with a smile.

"Xu Mu! You really are a force to be reckoned with. No wonder someone like Fu Jinyu likes you."

Li Chenshuang stared at Xu Mu in disbelief.

[Favorability +8]

"If your eyes are useless, you can donate them. Which eye of yours saw me liking him?"

Fu Jinyu asked faintly.

"That's perfect. Since you don't like him, I'll be taking Xu Mu away."

Li Chenshuang smiled at Xu Mu. "You can consider coming to my tribe. The treatment will definitely be better than what Fu Jinyu gives you."

Xu Mu pulled the silver needles out one by one and put them back into his storage space. "I have my own faction, so I won't be joining you for the time being."

Hearing this, although Fu Jinyu's expression didn't change, black text appeared above her head once again.

[Favorability +15]

In her eyes, Xu Mu saying this was clearly him rejecting Li Chenshuang.

"Then I will await your visit in the future."

Li Chenshuang put her clothes back on. "I hope the two of you will keep what happened today a secret. After all, I'm still an innocent maiden."

"Don't worry! I didn't do anything anyway. I was just treating your body."

Xu Mu waved his hand dismissively.

"Thank you. I won't go back on the things I promised you, and I also hope you can think about my offer carefully."

Saying this, Li Chenshuang sat down and hugged her legs, resting her terrifying giant beasts on her knees.

Her invitation was sincere. From what she could see, although Xu Mu's cultivation realm was lacking, he was skilled in both medicine and array formations.

The Second Tribe was lacking exactly this kind of talent.

Fu Jinyu said indifferently, "Your Jiuli tribe treats the descendants of Yan and Huang as sworn enemies. If Xu Mu went to your tribe, would he have a good time?"

"I am the chief. I'm not like you. There are people in the Heavenly Demon Tribe who refuse to submit to you, but everyone in the Second Tribe submits to me!"

Li Chenshuang glanced at Fu Jinyu.

Hearing this, Fu Jinyu scoffed coldly. "But if Xu Mu goes to your place, at most he'll just be an employee. Can he become the chief? Or rather, can you marry him?"

"I..."

Li Chenshuang froze for a moment, then looked at Fu Jinyu. "Can you?"

"Of course I can! I can marry this kid Xu Mu whenever I want. I have the final say in the Heavenly Demon Tribe!"

Fu Jinyu said expressionlessly. "But you are only the second chief. You wouldn't dare violate the rules of the Jiuli tribe."

"Hold on... Empress, I don't like the sound of that. Am I that easy?"

Xu Mu looked at Fu Jinyu and asked.

"What? If I take you as my husband, you'd dare to refuse?"

Fu Jinyu stared at Xu Mu.

"If you take me as a husband under your name, I definitely won't agree. But if you marry into my family as a wife, I can consider it."

Xu Mu said with a smile.

"There's no difference."

Fu Jinyu already knew that Xu Mu had a wife.

She couldn't possibly snatch Xu Mu away and force him to get a divorce, right?

Since Xu Mu had two wives, he definitely couldn't be considered her male concubine.

But Fu Jinyu didn't care about that. Even if she married Xu Mu, she still had to be the big boss.

Just then, Xu Mu noticed that the halo of light projecting down from the roof had disappeared.

Looking closely, the surrounding purple mist had also dissipated.

With a light leap, Xu Mu jumped out from the roof. He looked around and saw that the shirtless man on the high ground was also gone.

"How is it?"

Fu Jinyu jumped out after him.

"Let's hurry deeper inside!"

Xu Mu remembered that Wu Cang hadn't run far earlier, but had instead hidden nearby.

That meant the exit to the second floor was highly likely located deeper inside.

Fu Jinyu nodded. Grabbing Xu Mu, he spread his wings and flew toward the depths.

Li Chenshuang also released her wings and followed closely behind Fu Jinyu.

When the three of them reached the plaza deep inside, they found a massive opening.

The opening was about ten meters in diameter, but it was currently slowly sealing itself shut.

Xu Mu quickly said, "Let's go in! The third floor is right inside!"

Fu Jinyu and Li Chenshuang flew straight in.

It was pitch black inside the opening, but once they passed through, their surroundings brightened up again.

They were now at the peak of a mountain. Beyond the cliff's edge, numerous white clouds could be seen drifting by.

They were practically at the exact same altitude as the clouds.

In the distance stood a palace. Perched at the very top of the palace was a crouching stone statue.

The statue had a pair of demonic horns on its head and wings on its back, its entire body covered in heavy armor.

Standing right before the palace gates was Wu Cang.

Seeing someone enter, Wu Cang immediately turned around, only to find that the newcomers weren't Xia Chuan.

"Li Chenshuang, it's actually you! I didn't expect you to make it this far!"

"If a mere leader of the Seventh Tribe can make it here, why can't I?" Li Chenshuang replied with a cold expression.

"Because your patriarch is afraid of death. He didn't dare to venture in here himself and only dared to send you all as cannon fodder," Wu Cang said with an arrogant look. "But our Patriarch Chi Ting is different. He dared to brave this place and passed the secrets of clearing it down to me."

"Then why didn't he take the treasures out himself? Why send you instead?" Li Chenshuang sneered. "What you just said is an open betrayal of the patriarch. I have every right to kill you!"

Right at this moment, two more figures appeared in the distance. It was none other than Chen Xuan and Ye Chen.

Xu Mu hadn't expected the two of them to be together.
