"Brother Chu, why don't you leave Border City first?" Nalan Fenghua said. The Heavenly Dan Building's threat was not a joke.
"No need." Chu Mu shook his head. He did not put the Heavenly Dan Building in his eyes.
"How about this, let Wang Kai and the others protect you." Nalan Fenghua said.
"They're your guards," said Chu Mu. Only he knew his own strength, so he didn't need protection.
But Nalan Fenghua insisted. In the end, three of the guards protected Chu Mu, while the other three protected Nalan Fenghua.
The Small Dan Building's alchemy room was temporarily handed over to Qin Yang. Chu Mu left the building and returned to his original courtyard.
The three guards stayed outside Chu Mu's door, maintaining a high level of vigilance.
If it was before, they would definitely not be willing. But now, they were very willing.
Although the Heavenly Pill Pavilion had given Chu Mu three days, there was no guarantee that the Heavenly Pill Pavilion's people would not take action now and give Chu Mu a warning first.
One must know that Chu Mu was very important now. It was related to the future of the Small Dan Building and Nalan Fenghua's fate.
The three Qi Hai Realm swordsmen stood outside the door. Chu Mu shook his head slightly and sat cross-legged on the bed, beginning to practice the Sword Qi Arts.
He planned to make his foundation more stable. Therefore, he refined the Great Desolate Sword Qi again and again to make it purer. This would help him build a more solid foundation for his future cultivation.
As long as he was willing, he could break through faster and increase his cultivation base. In a short period of time, it would not be difficult for him to cultivate to the Origin Realm again. But because of this, Chu Mu was not in a hurry to increase his cultivation base. He wanted to build a solid foundation for himself.
The Great Desolate Sword Qi had circulated for many cycles and became purer. Chu Mu extended his finger and a sand-like yellow Sword Qi spat out. There were no impurities and its purity was shocking. But Chu Mu still felt that it was not enough.
After putting away the Great Desolate Sword Qi, Chu Mu could feel the breathing of the three people outside, even though it was very weak. Outside, night gradually fell.
It wasn't until late at night that Chu Mu's figure flashed, and he flew out of the side window. He didn't make a sound, and quietly closed the window. The three guards outside didn't notice anything.
Even though Chu Mu's cultivation had dropped drastically and was only at the tenth stage of the Sword Qi Realm, he was still a true expert. He could still use the Flying Swan Illusory Steps and left the courtyard in a flash like a wisp of smoke.
Late at night, the desolate city seemed very quiet. On the streets, there were no lights, and no one could be seen. It was pitch-black, and it was difficult to see one's five fingers.
At this time, most people had already entered dreamland. Only the sound of the night watch from time to time made the night even more silent.
Chu Mu's figure turned into a wisp of smoke, flying through the night streets. He was as silent as a ghost, and the night watchman did not notice him at all.
Chu Mu's destination was the Heavenly Pill Building.
Instead of being passive, he might as well take the initiative to attack. He didn't care if the other party knew his strength. It was better if they knew his strength. He wasn't afraid of them finding trouble with him.
Although he wasn't very familiar with the desolate city, the Heavenly Pill Building was very conspicuous. Therefore, Chu Mu soon found the location of the Heavenly Pill Building and quickly approached it.
The Heavenly Dan Building had regular guards who were all at the Qi Transformation Realm. In a low level city like the Desolate Border City, a Qi Transformation Realm warrior could be considered an expert, and a Qi Hai Realm warrior could be considered a great expert. If a Sword Artist surpassed the Qi Hai Realm, they would be considered a strong warrior.
Not to mention a Qi Transformation Realm swordsman, even a Primary Realm swordsman would find it difficult to find Chu Mu's whereabouts. Chu Mu easily passed by the guards of the Heavenly Pill Building and entered the building.
His tyrannical mental power had already been released, covering the entire Heavenly Pill Building. Everything in the building was clearly "seen" by him.
The Heavenly Pill Building had a total of four floors. The Heavenly Pill Building Master lived on the fourth floor, and he was still awake.
…
After finishing his work, the Heavenly Pill Building Master rubbed his temples and thought of Chu Mu.
"I hope you know what's good for you, or else …" He said in a low voice.
"Or else what?" An indifferent voice sounded.
"Who is it?" The Heavenly Pill Building Master was a powerful swordsman who had reached the eighth transformation of the Ninth Transformation Realm. His reaction was extremely fast. He stood up, grabbed the sword beside him, and pulled it out halfway. The sword reflected a dazzling brilliance under the Luminous Pearl. A trace of coldness filled the air, and his eyes were extremely sharp, piercing through the air.
From the reaction of the Heavenly Pill Building Master, it could be seen that his combat strength was extraordinary and that he had rich combat experience.
"Aren't you talking about me?" The indifferent voice sounded again. The Heavenly Pill Building Master only felt the light in front of him darken and return to normal. Then, a figure appeared in front of him. It was as if he had been standing there for a long time. This feeling was very strange, and it made his muscles tense.
"You are …" The Heavenly Pill Building Master, Yan Lie, widened his eyes. With a trace of disbelief, he said two words that shocked him, "Chu Mu?"
"That's me," Chu Mu said. He sat down opposite Yan Lie very naturally, as if he was very familiar with this place.
Yan Lie took a deep breath. His eyes were filled with vigilance toward Chu Mu. He realized that he couldn't see through Chu Mu's cultivation because he couldn't feel the slightest fluctuation of sword Qi on Chu Mu's body.
There were only three possibilities. First, Chu Mu didn't have sword Qi cultivation and wasn't a swordsman. Second, his cultivation was above Yan Lie's, so he concealed his fluctuations so that Yan Lie couldn't sense them. Third, Chu Mu cultivated a special technique to conceal his aura, and its level wasn't low.
The first possibility could be completely eliminated, because how could a person without cultivation appear in front of him without being discovered by the guards and without him noticing?
Yan Lie was angry with the person who collected the information. Who said that Chu Mu didn't have cultivation?
The second and third possibilities were possible, but Yan Lie was more inclined to the second one because he didn't notice Chu Mu approaching. He only reacted when Chu Mu made a sound.
Thinking of this, Yan Lie's forehead suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. A chill invaded his body, and he couldn't help but shiver. His hair stood on end.
If … it was just a hypothesis. If Chu Mu didn't make a sound and secretly attacked, would Yan Lie be able to resist?
Chu Mu didn't say anything. He saw the changes in Yan Lie's expression and knew what Yan Lie was thinking.
"Sneaking into other people's residence in the middle of the night is unbecoming of a master." After a while, Yan Lie finally calmed down. He put down his sword and sat down opposite Chu Mu across the table. He was sure that Chu Mu didn't plan to attack. Otherwise, it would have been a good opportunity.
"How many strikes do you think it would take for me to kill you?" Chu Mu acted as if he didn't hear Yan Lie's words and continued speaking. At the same time, a sword magically appeared in his hand and he slowly pulled it out. The melodious sound and the reflected light caused Yan Lie's expression to greatly change.
He squinted his eyes and stared at the sword in Chu Mu's hand. He was extremely shocked.
Yan Lie didn't know much about swords, but he could still tell that the sword in Chu Mu's hand was of a higher quality than his. It was a Royal Grade sword.
A swordsman who could use a Royal Grade sword was obviously at the Origin Realm!
Even the weakest Origin Realm swordsman could easily kill him. Yan Lie's forehead was covered in cold sweat again. He was extremely nervous.
The difference between the Nine Transformation Realm and the Origin Realm was too obvious. He didn't dare to do anything that might cause a misunderstanding. No matter what, he had to save his life first.
"You must have a reason for coming here so late at night. Please speak clearly." Yan Lie couldn't be tough now.
"Let's talk about the Heavenly Pill Building. It shouldn't be just in the Desolate Border City, right?" Chu Mu said casually as he took out a special cloth to wipe the Heavenly Desolate Sword.
"The Heavenly Pill Building in the Desolate Border City is just a branch." Yan Lie thought for a moment and said. This wasn't a secret. Since he had said it, there was no need to hide it. "The headquarters of the Heavenly Pill Building is in the Ancient Desolate Border City. The Ancient Desolate Border City is a high-grade city. We have many experts in the Heavenly Pill Building. People with strength like mine can be found everywhere. Moreover, if I am killed, the Heavenly Pill Building will investigate the murderer and take revenge. "
Chu Mu could tell from Yan Lie's words that the Heavenly Pill Building's influence wasn't small. At the very least, it was stronger than the Nalan Family. They weren't to be trifled with. The meaning of Yan Lie's words was obvious. Even if Chu Mu killed him, it would be useless. The Heavenly Pill Building would definitely not let Chu Mu go.
Chu Mu also didn't intend to kill him, at least not now.
"You can rest assured that I have no interest in killing you now." Chu Mu said and glanced at Yan Lie. "But you have to remember that the Heavenly Pill Building focuses on pills. The Small Pill House also focuses on pills. We can compete. If you want to play some tricks, you can try and see if I am afraid of the Heavenly Pill Building."
Chu Mu's tone was very flat and not sharp at all. However, the threat in it was very obvious. Yan Lie could completely hear it.
From Chu Mu's tone, Yan Lie could hear a kind of pride, a kind of sharpness, and a strength that was not afraid of anything. If he really wanted to play some tricks, Chu Mu would definitely do it. At that time, he would lose his life. As for how the Heavenly Pill Building would take revenge in the future, he didn't know.
After thinking about it, his life was still more important.
There was no need for Yan Lie to answer directly. After Chu Mu finished speaking, his figure flashed and he left under Yan Lie's eyes.
The essence of the Flying Swan Illusory Steps was displayed incisively and vividly. Under Yan Lie's gaze, Chu Mu's figure didn't move. After a few breaths, it slowly faded and then dissipated like smoke. Only then did Yan Lie react. Chu Mu had already left.
This method once again made his forehead ooze with drops of sweat and slide down his cheeks. A cold current rushed up from the soles of his feet, along his back and into his brain. He couldn't help but shiver.
Taking a few deep breaths, Yan Lie tried to calm himself down and began to think about how to deal with the current situation.
