To subdue
Whoosh …
However, just as Mu Yun stepped onto the stairs, there was a sound of something breaking through the air behind her. Immediately after, a figure pounced on Mu Yun from behind.
"Mister Zi Mu is very resourceful. I, Chen Yu, would like to experience it for myself!"
Chen Yu's face turned cold. A dagger appeared in her hand and she slashed it at Mu Yun's neck.
"Little girl, why are you using a knife at the slightest disagreement? I'm here to save people, not to kill!" Mu Yun laughed bitterly and pointed her finger back.
Crack crack …
Mu Yun's finger coincidentally touched the blade of the dagger. Cracking sounds could be heard. Mu Yun's finger was fine, but the dagger instantly broke apart. A trace of purple aura flowed into Chen Yu's arm.
"Sigh … Why bother? This time, I'm going to save another person!" Mu Yun shook her head when she saw Chen Yu's face turn pale and let out a muffled groan.
"Now, can you bring me to see your Hall Master, Mr. Leng Yue?"
"Follow me!"
Looking warily at Mu Yun, Chen Yu snorted coldly and said with an icy expression.
"How do you know that Leng Yue is the Hall Master?" As they walked, Chen Yu asked.
"I didn't know, but now I know."
"You …"
"Alright, great beauty, if you continue to procrastinate, your sweetheart will be burned to ashes!" Mu Yun laughed again.
"How did you know he was my …"
"I didn't know before, but now I know!"
"…"
In a secret room in the Earth Emanations Hall, large blocks of ice slowly emitted a cold aura.
However, as soon as the ice melted, the entire secret room was filled with steam. It was incomparably hot and stuffy like a steam room.
At this moment, in a secret room, a figure was lying on a bed, his entire body curled up.
Upon closer inspection, one would discover that this person's body was covered in purple veins. Those purple veins were like blooming lotuses that bound the person on the bed.
At that moment, the person on the bed was emitting a very weak aura. Like a withered tree, he was completely devoid of life.
"Ah …"
A moment later, low growls of pain could be heard from the room.
With a loud rumble, the door to the secret chamber was opened. Chen Yu rushed all the way to the bedside.
"Don't come over!"
"Cold Moon!"
"Don't come over. Otherwise, you'll be infected too. This fire can't be dispelled at all. It's like a maggot in your bones. You can't dispel it at all. Ah …"
On the bed, the delicate and pretty Leng Yue had a ferocious expression. Large droplets of sweat dripped down continuously.
"Of course. If the Heaven Fire could be dispelled so easily, would it still be called Heaven Fire?"
Suddenly, a voice rang out, startling Leng Yue.
"Who?"
"I am Mister Zi Mu!"
Hearing this, Leng Yue immediately sat up on the bed. Her eyes revealed a strange purple light as she looked at Zi Mu.
"It is indeed you. Keke … the assassination failed and you found me instead. It looks like the Earth Emanations Hall has reached its end!"
"Walk to the end? Alright, then give me the position of Earth Emanations Hall's Hall Lord. I will help you manage the Earth Emanations Hall, "Mu Yun said with a smile.
"Aren't you here to save people?"
Chen Yu shouted when he saw Leng Yu's pained expression.
"I can save people, but I haven't discussed my conditions." Mu Yun found a piece of ice crystal and sat on it. She sucked in a cold breath.
In an instant, the temperature in the entire secret room plummeted. The fiery aura gradually dissipated as if it had all gathered in Mu Yun's body.
Leng Yue, who was on the bed, also stopped groaning in pain. The sweat on her face also began to disappear.
"What conditions?"
"Simple. I want the Earth Emanations Hall to become my …"
"Dream on!"
However, before Mu Yun could finish her sentence, Leng Yue's delicate face revealed a vicious expression. "Even if I die, I will not hand the Earth Emanations Hall over to you."
"Why are you in such a hurry? Aren't we talking about conditions? "
Mu Yun pursed her lips and said, "I need the Earth Emanations Hall to become my subordinate force for one year. In this one year, I will give you the antidote elixir every month. After one year, I will completely remove the poison in your bodies.
"However, in this one year, the Earth Emanations Hall must become my subordinate force unconditionally. I have the final say in everything. You are no exception!"
You!
Noticing Mu Yun's words, Leng Yue looked at Chen Yu with a determined expression.
"Yu 'er, you …"
"Alright, don't be so affectionate. She has been poisoned as well. Let me tell you, this is the Purple Lotus Demonic Flame, the Poison of Heaven Fire. Even the top alchemists in the entire Tianyun Continent cannot cure you. Only I, understand?"
Hearing this, Leng Yue's entire body trembled.
He hated it!
His father, Leng Wushuang, had been managing the Earth Emanations Hall his entire life. Now, the Earth Emanations Hall had finally become a major force in the Southern Cloud Empire that could not be ignored.
Was it going to be destroyed in his hands?
"I only need one year. After one year, you can do whatever you want. I will no longer care. The Earth Emanations Hall will still be returned to you!"
"Why should we believe you?" Chen Yu frowned and asked.
"Because you have no other choice!"
Mu Yun smiled and said, "The Earth Emanations Hall was built by Leng Yue's father. I believe that with Leng Yue's death, there will be chaos in the hall. Then, the spies planted in the Earth Emanations Hall will begin to dismantle the Earth Emanations Hall. Then, the Earth Emanations Hall will fly back and be annihilated.
"Listen to me, and you may still have hope. If you don't, only death awaits you. Smart people know what to do."
Mu Yun continued, "Furthermore, as a reward for your promise, I will give you three benefits."
"Which three?"
"First, I will help you remove the poison from the Purple Lotus Demonic Flame. Of course, it is only temporary. Second, I will give you two sets of martial skills. Third, I will give you one hundred heads!"
En?
Hearing Mu Yun's words, Chen Yu and Leng Yue were stunned.
They were not stunned by the removal of the poison and martial skills, but by the one hundred heads.
"If you become my subordinates, the one hundred heads will naturally be considered as me removing them for my own force. I do not wish to take over an Earth Emanations Hall that is full of loopholes."
The atmosphere in the house gradually became heavy.
Leng Yue's expression gradually turned ugly.
"I agree!"
Finally, Chen Yu pursed his lips and spoke.
"Yu 'er …"
"You don't have a choice, do you?"
Mu Yun smiled and said, "Look at how bitter and vengeful you are. Believe me, this time, it will be the best decision you have made in your lives. Although my methods are not honorable, you were the one who tried to assassinate me first, right?"
Seeing that Leng Yue was about to resist, Mu Yun smiled and said.
"Alright!"
Leng Yue said seriously, "I promise you. I am willing to listen to any of your requests for a year, Hall Master."
"Don't, don't, don't. Just promise me. I will remove the poison for you first. I do not wish for my subordinates to be sick all day!"
As Mu Yun spoke, two purple threads surged out from their bodies.
After that, Mu Yun took out a bottle of black elixirs.
"There are two … Black Heart Elixirs in here! Uh … Black Tiger Elixir, forget it. Let's name it Black Heart Elixir! "
Mu Yun coughed and said, "Two Black Heart Elixirs for the two of you. Take it once a month and ask me for the elixirs once a month. Remember."
Mu Yun felt the pinch when he gave out the Black Heart Elixir.
He obtained the Black Heart Elixir with Mu Dingtian in the Leiyin Valley. The Purple Flame Wolves and a large group of monsters had swallowed this elixir to survive.
He had only collected a few hundred of them and brought them with him.
It was not that he did not want to collect all of them, but he was afraid that the Purple Flame Wolves would starve to death. That was why he kept a lot of them.
He was destined to return to the Leiyin Valley. However, when he returned, the entire Southern Cloud Empire would undergo earth-shattering changes.
"Black Heart Elixir …"
Leng Yue and Chen Yu were disgusted when they saw the black elixir in Mu Yun's hand.
However, when the two of them swallowed the elixir, their faces gradually turned into shock.
"Although it doesn't look good, I won't sell this elixir even if you give me a million Middle Spiritual Stones. You have made a fortune. Do you know that?"
Mu Yun curled her lips when she saw their expressions.
"This is the 'Moon God Technique'. The technique you learn is the Dao of Assassination. You are the number one assassin in the Southern Cloud Empire, but your technique is really lousy in my eyes …"
"And this is the 'Floating Rain Dagger Technique'. I see that you are good at using daggers. When you are in close combat, you can learn this dagger technique. It will be easy for you to kill someone of a higher cultivation level."
"Oh yes, and this. These are the spies that your Earth Emanations Hall has planted in the Southern Cloud Empire. There are spies from the Gu Clan, the Lin Clan, and the Xiao Clan. There are more than a hundred of them. Do as you deem fit. I don't care if you want to kill them or torture them. However, I need the Earth Emanations Hall. There will be no problems internally!"
Leng Yue and Chen Yu were stunned when they saw the list of names, elixirs, and martial techniques.
"Lastly, the current Earth Emanations Hall is still yours. I am considered as … the mastermind behind the scenes. Do you understand?"
"Understood!"
After she finished speaking, Mu Yun stood up and left.
"What is your relationship with Mu Yun?" Leng Yue suddenly asked when Mu Yun turned around.
"Keke …"
Mu Yun was stunned when she heard this. She said, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"
After she finished speaking, Mu Yun turned around and left.
"This person has the Heaven Flame and is decisive in his actions. His strength is not below yours or mine, but he has not reached the Soul Conduit realm. Zi Mu, who is he?"
Leng Yue frowned and said as she watched Mu Yun leave.
"The Heaven Flame is rare in this world. It is said that the Thunderclap Valley contains the Heaven Flame, and only two people have entered the Thunderclap Valley. They are Mu Yun and Mu Dingtian. Could it be … Mu Yun?"
"Impossible!"
Chen Yu retorted. "Mu Yun may be alert, but he is arrogant and not good at hiding himself. If it was him, he would have killed his way to the Green Shadow Blood Sect and the three major clans to take revenge. Why would he …"
"Nothing is absolute in this world! Even if this person is not Mu Yun, he is closely related to Mu Yun. "
"What about the people on this list?"
"Get rid of them all. Yueshen Art, Floating Rain Dagger Art. Yu 'er, comprehend this martial technique well. It might be a great opportunity."
"I understand."
Leng Yue looked at the door and suddenly smiled. "This person is scheming and seems to be planning something big. I want to see what he is planning!"
After all, Leng Yue was young and impetuous. She was naturally unconvinced when she faced Zi Mu.
