Young Master, Could It Be That You Bear Ill Will Toward Profound Earth Mountain?

Zhou Mu was reluctant to go, and even considered leaving the sect altogether.

However, he could clearly feel several Divine Senses descending upon him from the sky.

Those were the Divine Sense of several Nascent Soul True Lords from Profound Earth Mountain.

Zhou Mu couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

Such a powerful force made a special trip just to see a mere Golden Core elder; surely the old guys of Profound Earth Mountain wouldn't just stand by and watch him leave.

Although he was at the Nascent Soul Perfection and possessed considerable strength, facing the gaze of more than a dozen Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, if he tried to force his way out, he would be lucky to escape with his life on the line!

Moreover, that unknown force might not just stand by and watch him escape!

Thinking of this, Zhou Mu took a deep breath and replied telepathically, "I'm coming right now."

He turned to look at his two disciples, a faint glint of bloodlust appearing in his eyes.

It's a pity for these two disciples; the Blood Devil Seeds left in their bodies will soon mature.

However, there was no time left to pick them.

After this, I'll probably have to leave as soon as possible; I can't keep this identity anymore.

He maintained his gentle smile and said calmly, "You all cultivate diligently. That force seems to want to see me. I'll go and take a look."

Both disciples were taken aback upon hearing this.

The honest-looking young man looked nervous, his brows furrowed tightly. "Why do you want to see Master? Are you here because of Master?"

The handsome young man also showed a hint of nervousness at this moment.

Their master was their reliance on Profound Earth Mountain. If they incurred the wrath of a powerful enemy because of their master, their situation would become extremely awkward!

Zhou Mu chuckled, waved his hand, and said, "I don't believe I've done anything wrong, so there's no need to worry. Perhaps it's just an old acquaintance passing by, taking the opportunity to catch up."

Upon hearing this, and remembering their master's temperament, the two felt somewhat relieved.

Indeed, their master was a kind person who had never provoked anyone, so how could he have offended a force of this caliber?

"Then Master, you must be careful," the handsome young man quickly said, bowing.

Zhou Mu smiled and said no more.

He then soared into the air, transforming into a pale yellow streak of light as he flew out of the formation.

As a Golden Core Realm cultivator in name only, his escape speed is naturally not slow.

In just a few breaths, he flew out of the array's protective barrier and arrived in front of the group of Supreme Elders of Profound Earth Mountain.

He first bowed respectfully to Yang Qiu and the other Supreme Elders, his voice gentle and calm. "Li Fangfang greets all the Supreme Elders and the Sect True Lord."

Then he looked at the Nine Splendors Cloud Chariot hovering in the air.

Although he had observed it carefully from a distance, getting up close to take a closer look gave him a completely different feeling.

Each scale on those nine Cloud Flood Dragons was intricately woven from cloud energy and array patterns.

The pale white light flickering in the dragon's eyes concealed a chilling and terrifying pressure.

The nested array patterns on the nine-layered canopy were so intricate that they startled him. Each layer of the canopy was an independent defensive circuit, and with nine layers combined, the defensive power probably exceeded his understanding of Formation Dao!

However, what alarmed Zhou Mu the most was the group of people standing in front of the bronze chariot.

Those young female cultivators weren't anything special. Although each of them possessed a deep and dignified aura and had an excellent foundation, Zhou Mu had seen many geniuses like them, so they weren't enough to impress him.

However, the young man in white robes was quite extraordinary.

When he first saw that exceptionally handsome face, his Sea of Consciousness involuntarily rippled slightly.

Even with his Nascent Soul Perfection cultivation at its peak and his hundreds of years of experience, he had never seen a cultivator with such an air and appearance.

Even the Blood Devil Great Art he cultivated was now instinctively yearning for it.

I want to eat him!

This person's flesh and blood must taste incredibly sweet!

If I were to use his Essence Blood to refine Blood Pill and his Spiritual Qi to refine a spirit pill, I might be able to break through the bottleneck that had trapped him for decades and directly break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm!

This bloodthirsty craving came so suddenly and so intensely that Zhou Mu was momentarily unable to control himself.

A flicker of crimson light flashed uncontrollably in the depths of his eyes, and his fist clenched silently in his sleeve.

Fortunately, having hidden himself in the shadows for many years, his cunning had been honed to an impenetrable level, and he suppressed his bloodlust in an instant.

Moreover... the auras of the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators surrounding that white-robed youth were all off!

Even those few who were only at the Nascent Soul Late Stage made him feel a tremendous threat!

This means that even those cultivators at the Nascent Soul Late Stage could potentially kill him!

But how is that possible?

He was, after all, a Nascent Soul Perfection of his cultivation. Although he practiced Evil Method, this Evil Method was considered righteous by the Blood Devil Race!

This Cultivation Method itself does not harm one's own foundation. The version he gave to the other members of the Blood Devil Hall was a simplified version, completely under his control.

However, the version he cultivated himself was the normal, complete version!

In the end, he could even transform from a human into a pure Blood Devil Race!

He believed that his accumulated foundation was among the best in the Nascent Soul Perfection stage, and he feared no one in a battle against someone of the same level!

But... at this moment, he actually felt a deadly threat from several Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators!

Could it be that these Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators are all Dao disciples, holy sons, or fairy maidens of the Spirit Transformation Immortal Sect?

Are you kidding me?

Zhou Mu were churning, and he remained extremely vigilant, but his expression was as respectful as ever. He bowed to the people on the Nine Splendors Cloud Chariot, and said in a steady and humble voice, "Greetings, seniors."

At this moment, Yang Qiu stroked his white beard, smoothing out the wrinkles on his withered old face, and spoke with considerable composure, "Little Li, this young master has something to discuss with you. Do you know him?"

In his view, Li Fangfang must have had a past with this young master.

Therefore, his attitude was quite natural.

Zhou Mu was taken aback by these words and glanced at Lu Yang again.

The bloodlust that had been gnawing at him surged up again, which he forcibly suppressed, but a sense of confusion arose in his mind.

Is this young master looking for him?

He'd never seen this person before!

Why are you looking for him?

Zhou Mu were racing, but a perfectly timed look of confusion appeared on his face. He shook his head, his tone sincere yet slightly uneasy. "Ancestor, this junior has never seen this young master before. May I ask what business this young master has with me?"

Lu Yang had been observing Zhou Mu ever since he appeared.

Unexpectedly, this seemingly ordinary, kind-faced cultivator was actually the master of the Blood Devil Hall, a powerful evil cultivator who had forcefully risen to the peak of the Nascent Soul Perfection using the "Blood Devil Great Art Evil Cultivator".

To be honest, without Search Module, he would have had a hard time finding it.

But... there's something strange about the way this guy's eyes are looking at him.

Although Zhou Mu, Lu Yang's intelligence is now extremely high. In addition, he had already condensed his Divine Sense during the Qi Refining Realm. After breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, his Divine Sense surged and became quite sharp and powerful, and his intuition was also amazing.

He could clearly sense that this guy harbored extreme malice towards him.

Lu Yang raised an eyebrow, his smile gentle.

He stood with his hands behind his back in front of the Nine Splendors Cloud Chariot and said, "I'm not looking for Elder Li Fangfang of Profound Earth Mountain, but Palace Master Zhou Mu of the Blood Devil Hall. Why don't you change your appearance, Palace Master? We can have a proper chat about the Blood Devil Hall."

Upon hearing this, Yang Qiu and the others were taken aback, their eyes showing surprise and confusion.

They exchanged a glance, then looked at Zhou Mu.

"Blood Devil Hall? What kind of organization is that? I've never heard of it before. Is Li Fangfang the master of the Blood Devil Hall?"

"Judging from the name, it seems to be Evil Dao sect? Young master, you must have mistaken them for something else."

"Could it be... that this young master truly harbors ill will towards Profound Earth Mountain and is merely using some pretext to wage war against us?"

Several elders from Profound Earth Mountain discussed the matter telepathically, their tone gradually shifting from initial confusion to solemnity and vigilance.

They believed that Li Fangfang, as an elder of Profound Earth Mountain, had been diligent and conscientious for many years and had never made the slightest mistake.

Over the years, they had known each other for a while and had met a few times.

How could he possibly be the master of that Blood Devil Hall?

In contrast, Zhou Mu was greatly shocked, and then an extremely strong killing intent arose in his heart.

He had initially thought that it was his identity as Li Fangfang that had somehow offended such a terrifying force.

He never expected that the other party was actually after his identity as the Lord of the Blood Devil Hall!

But how could that be?!

He believed that he had handled each of his identity transitions flawlessly.

Even the four deputy hall masters didn't know his identity!

How did he know about this young monk he had never met before?

He was utterly bewildered, yet his heart was already pounding with tension.

We absolutely must not expose this!

Once exposed, surrounded by so many Nascent Soul Cultivators, he will be doomed!

Thinking of this, a look of confusion and panic appeared on his face. "What makes you say this, young master? I am Li Fangfang, and who is Zhou Mu? I have never heard of him! Not to mention the Blood Devil Hall. I don't think there is such a power in the entire Yellow Province, do I?"

Yang Qiu frowned slightly, carefully choosing his tone, and said gently, "Young Master, Li Fangfang is an elder of my Profound Earth Mountain, upright and honest, and acts with integrity. How could he be the master of the Blood Devil Hall? Young Master, you must have mistaken him for someone else."

Behind Yang Qiu, a middle-aged man also suppressed his smile, cupped his hands, and said, "Yes, young master, why don't you tell me what features Zhou Mu, the Blood Devil Hall Master, has? Our Profound Earth Mountain is willing to do everything we can to help you find him!"

Although the other elders of Profound Earth Mountain did not speak, they conveyed the same meaning.

In fact, their eyes were filled with wariness when they looked at Lu Yang.

In their view, the chances of this mysterious young master planning to cause trouble under some pretext were much higher than the chances of their sect's honest and dutiful elder being the Blood Devil Hall Master!
