The flaming sword Qi that was like a torrent flew through the air, and the rotating flaming spear followed closely behind. It broke through the flaming sword Qi and shot towards Chu Mu.
Wei Yang had used all his strength in this attack. Seeing that Chu Mu did not move at all, as if he was scared silly, the last glimmer of hope in Li Qiuran's heart was completely wiped out.
Wei Yang's handsome face was filled with a sinister smile. It was as if he had seen Chu Mu being pierced through by his flaming spear and turned into ashes.
Just as the torrent of flaming sword Qi blasted towards Chu Mu and the flaming spear was about to hit Chu Mu, Chu Mu stretched out another finger and poked forward. In an instant, Wei Yang thought that he was hallucinating. He vaguely saw a divine sword being unsheathed. It had an indescribable sharpness.
The sword finger pierced towards the flaming spear and collided with the tip of the spear. The flaming spear suddenly stopped and shattered under Chu Mu's sword finger.
The torrent of flaming sword Qi rushed past Chu Mu's left and right sides, as if it was intentionally avoiding him. This scene caused Wei Yang's eyes to widen in disbelief.
How could such a powerful attack be so easily dispelled?
Was it an illusion?
Immediately after, Chu Mu's finger trembled, and a wisp of Divine Wilderness Sword Energy turned into sword Qi and shot out. Wei Yang only caught a glimpse of a golden light cutting through the sky, and then, his vision turned black, as if the world had turned upside down.
His glabella was pierced through, and a wisp of dark red slowly flowed out. He fell backwards, and his brain was shattered by the sword Qi. His soul was scattered, and he couldn't be any more dead.
Li Qiuran seemed to have been immobilized. She didn't move at all. She was dumbfounded.
The changes were too fast. There were several twists and turns, causing Li Qiuran's emotions to rise and fall between hope and despair. Now that she saw Wei Yang killed in an instant, Li Qiuran was stunned.
However, she was still the young miss of a family. She had an extraordinary background and some knowledge, so she quickly reacted.
"Thank you for saving me." Li Qiuran bowed to Chu Mu.
"It's nothing." Chu Mu smiled slightly and said casually. His goal was not to save Li Qiuran. It could be said that it was an accident. However, killing Wei Yang was equivalent to saving Li Qiuran. Moreover, when Chu Mu saw this scene, he had the idea to use this as an entry point to start integrating into this world.
With Wei Yang's death, Li Qiuran relaxed, but she did not dare to stay here for long. She wanted to return to her family, but she was not strong enough. She was worried that there would be danger on the way back, so she could not help but think.
"Benefactor, you have saved my life. I have no way of repaying you. Why don't you come with me to the Li family? The Li family will definitely repay you," Li Qiuran said.
Thus, one wanted to find someone to protect, while the other wanted to use this as an entry point to integrate into the Deep Blue World. Just like that, the two happily decided.
Li Qiuran was actually quite nervous and even a bit afraid. She was worried that this person would be like Wei Yang, but he was alone and was not very strong. If he wanted to return to his family, there would be all sorts of dangers.
Chu Mu did not have that kind of intention towards Li Qiuran, nor did he need any repayment from the Li family.
Chu Mu's words and actions did not show any intention of getting close to her, nor did he deliberately alienate her. This attitude gradually made Li Qiuran feel at ease.
Li Qiuran was curious as to why Chu Mu would appear in such a remote place. To be able to kill Wei Yang in an instant, it meant that Chu Mu was much stronger than Wei Yang. One had to know that Wei Yang had the cultivation of the first layer of the Nirvana Realm.
In that case, Chu Mu also had the cultivation of the Nirvana Realm. In such a place, even the Divine Condensation Realm was not suitable for cultivation, let alone the Nirvana Realm.
Of course, Chu Mu would not say that he came from the outside world. Instead, he casually made it up. He had some fortuitous encounters by chance and came here after he came out.
"Big Brother Chu's luck is deep." Li Qiuran immediately laughed when she heard this. With her bright eyes and white teeth, it was no wonder that Wei Yang would be tempted.
As if she was curious about Chu Mu, Li Qiuran asked about Chu Mu's origins and so on. Chu Mu thought for a moment and said that he was the successor of a hidden sect. Not long after he left the mountain, he had a fortuitous encounter by chance.
It was not very convincing, but Li Qiuran seemed to believe it. However, the Deep Blue World was vast, so it was not surprising that there were hidden sects.
In addition, Chu Mu had displayed the tyrannical strength that instantly killed Wei Yang. It was not strange to say that he was the successor of a hidden sect. Li Qiuran's mind was clearly not on this and did not continue to ask. Otherwise, Chu Mu really did not know how to answer because he did not know anything about the Deep Blue World.
From Li Qiuran's words, Chu Mu began to understand the Deep Blue World bit by bit.
The land under his feet belonged to the Azure Water Empire, and the Azure Water Empire was a powerful empire in the Deep Blue World. From Li Qiuran's words, Chu Mu knew that the Azure Water Empire was established by the Azure Water Sage Emperor many years ago.
What was the Sage Emperor? Li Qiuran did not say and Chu Mu did not ask. Although he was curious, he knew that he could not ask or he would easily give himself away.
Yan Mountain was a place within the Azure Water Empire. The Li Clan was the most prosperous clan in Yan Mountain.
Chu Mu gradually understood that he had stayed in the Five Spirits Hidden Domain for half a year. In other words, half a year had passed since he entered the Deep Blue World.
Gradually, Chu Mu heard the news of the hundred clans entering the Deep Blue World. They were defined as Outer Heaven Demons and issued an Outer Heaven Demon Hunting Order. Moreover, it was jointly issued by the big shots of the Deep Blue World. Killing an Outer Heaven Demon would give you a reward and so on. This reminded Chu Mu to be more vigilant. If his identity was exposed, he would be hunted down endlessly. Although he was stronger, it was still far from enough.
As the most prosperous clan in Yan Mountain, with a history of a thousand years, the Li Clan's manor was huge. It looked simple on the outside, but was actually luxurious.
Two people stood at the gate with swords on their backs. Their bodies were straight, and their auras were sharp. But Chu Mu felt that they didn't look like swordsmen, or rather, they were not.
Thinking back to Wei Yang's Fire Arrow Revolving Fire Spear and other fire techniques, Chu Mu realized that Deep Blue World was not like the four great human star regions. Although there were humans here, the cultivation of cultivators and swordsmen seemed to be somewhat different, yet somewhat similar.
For example, the two standing at the gate of the Li Clan, their auras were in the Divine Condensation Realm.
"Young Miss," The two guards saw Li Qiuran and bowed. At the same time, they looked at Chu Mu with puzzled eyes.
Li Qiuran nodded, with the demeanor of a young miss. She led Chu Mu into the Li Clan's manor.
She called a servant and arranged a place for Chu Mu to rest. Li Qiuran said she had to take care of some matters and left.
In the guest room, Chu Mu casually picked up a book and flipped it open. The words in the book were similar to the words used by humans, with only a small difference. But he could understand the general meaning.
Flipping through the book was equivalent to understanding the Deep Blue World.
After a while, the door was pushed open and a young man walked in.
"I'm Li Qiufeng. You must be Chu Mu. Thank you for saving my little sister," the young man said. The young man said to himself, "Saving your life is a great favor. I hope you won't refuse this small gift."
His words sounded polite, but Chu Mu could hear the estrangement in them.
Li Qiufeng threw a spatial ring over. Chu Mu took it and scanned it with his Divine Sense. The spatial ring wasn't big, but there were some high-grade Origin Pills inside. There were about a hundred thousand of them.
Seeing familiar things like Origin Pills, Chu Mu was slightly relieved. It would be easier to integrate with familiar things in an unfamiliar world.
Li Qiufeng thought that Chu Mu had accepted the reward, so he revealed a faint smile, "Are you planning to stay in the Li family as a guest for a few days or …"
Chu Mu could tell from his tone that this person didn't welcome him and wanted him to leave.
Chu Mu's expression turned cold. He planned to use the Li family as a starting point to integrate into this world, but that didn't mean he could be humiliated at will.
With a flick of his finger, the spatial ring flew towards Li Qiufeng. Chu Mu sneered, "A thousand-year-old family's aura is too strong. I'm not used to it. Goodbye."
His words were mocking the Li family for being arrogant and self-righteous.
Li Qiufeng caught the spatial ring with a cold and angry expression.
"Have a safe trip, I won't see you out," Li Qiufeng said coldly.
Chu Mu didn't pay attention to him and walked out of the room in large strides. He walked out of the Li Family Manor.
No one stopped Chu Mu. Chu Mu walked out of the Li family manor unimpeded.
After leaving the Li family manor, Chu Mu couldn't help feeling dispirited. For a moment, he didn't know where to go.
Plans really couldn't keep up with changes.
…
"Brother, how could you be like this? No matter what, he saved me once. Without him, I would've already …" Li Qiuran lost her temper.
"Little sister, I'm doing this for your own good. That person's background is unknown. Perhaps he's plotting something," said Li Qiufeng.
"If he was plotting something, would he have sent me back?" asked Li Qiuran.
"Little sister, you're still too young. You don't know how dangerous the world is. Perhaps his goal is our Li family. He wants something from us. After all, our Li family is a thousand-year-old family," said Li Qiufeng.
"But …" Li Qiuran wanted to retort.
"Alright, there's no 'but'. If he really doesn't have any special motives for our Li family, then he shouldn't have left in a fit of anger after being tested by me. If he really doesn't have any motives, then he should have stayed." Li Qiuran couldn't refute Li Qiuran's words. "Besides, you believed him when he told you he was the successor of a hidden sect. You believed him when he told you he had a fortuitous encounter. Perhaps he had a plan all along."
Li Qiuran carefully thought about it, and she was somewhat shaken.
"Alright, you've been frightened. Go back and have a good rest. Don't worry about anything else," said Li Qiufeng. After Li Qiuran left, he summoned a few of his trusted aides.
"Young master, we'll definitely handle this matter well."
"That's right. We'll definitely teach him a lesson he won't forget."
