Chapter 43: Geniuses of the Eastern Spiritual Territory and Western Spiritual Territory (Seeking Recommendations, Seeking Collection)

Mu Yuan was, without a doubt, the most terrifying prodigy Liu Wan'er had ever encountered.

Gulp.

Liu Wan'er pursed her lips tightly, then walked over to Mu Yuan's side and began to massage his shoulders.

"Comfortable!"

Mu Yuan closed his eyes and said in a low voice, "If it wasn't for the enjoyment, why would I take a female follower!"

Li Lang's eyes widened, staring at the scene before him that defied his perception.

He was stunned for a good ten seconds.

"Your technique is good."

"Liu Wan'er, what does he do?"

Mu Yuan, while enjoying the massage, casually glanced at Li Lang and asked.

"Mu Yuan, he is..."

However, before Liu Wan'er could finish, Mu Yuan interrupted her.

"Liu Wan'er, you are my follower now, you are not allowed to call me by my name directly."

"Yes, Young Master Mu!"

Liu Wan'er quickly corrected herself.

"That's more like it."

Mu Yuan was very pleased with Liu Wan'er's response and nodded. "Continue with your previous question."

"Young Master Mu, Li Lang is my cousin. He is a genius from the Eastern Spiritual Territory and one of the helpers I invited."

Having snapped back to reality, Li Lang was left bewildered.

"Liu Wan'er, you guys..."

Liu Wan'er was the pampered little princess of the Liu family, a prominent mercenary family in the Mercenary Realm. She herself possessed a cultivation base at the peak of the early Spirit Wheel Realm and had never taken any man of her age seriously. Yet, now she was acting so obedient and docile in front of Mu Yuan, who was merely at the middle stage of the Spiritual Movement Realm. Was this still the Liu Wan'er he knew?

Liu Wan'er quickly explained:

"Cousin, you've misunderstood. Young Master Mu is very powerful. Previously, Zhang Long was crippled by Young Master Mu just for provoking him. Even I am no match for Young Master Mu."

"This time, when we snatch the Earth Spirit Fruit, Young Master Mu will help me obtain half of it."

"Cousin, do you understand now how powerful Young Master Mu is?"

Liu Wan'er was worried that her cousin would run his mouth again and provoke Mu Yuan.

"Sigh!"

Li Lang sighed and thought to himself:

"They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and this applies equally to girls."

"Liu Wan'er, for Mu Yuan's sake, has lowered herself to such an extent to highlight Mu Yuan's strength."

Just then, Mu Yuan looked at Li Lang and asked:

"What is the strength of the several prodigies from the Eastern Spiritual Territory?"

As a genius from the Eastern Spiritual Territory, Li Lang was naturally familiar with the talents from his territory who were competing for the Earth Spirit Fruit.

"Heh... this guy actually dares to deceive Liu Wan'er, claiming he can definitely obtain the Earth Spirit Fruit. Then I'll let the other geniuses step on him and expose his true colors in front of Liu Wan'er."

Li Lang's eyes darted, a hint of sarcasm flashing within them, and he said with a smile:

"Young Master Mu, since you are so strong, there's no need for you to know their strength. You can crush them all anyway and obtain the Earth Spirit Fruit, can't you?"

Liu Wan'er became anxious, but Mu Yuan calmly replied:

"You're right. If one sword isn't enough, I'll use two or even three. There's really no need to know their strength."

Arrogant!

Conceited!

Ignorant!

This was Li Lang's assessment of Mu Yuan.

After that, Li Lang didn't say anything else, and the three of them focused on their journey.

They passed through dense forests and encountered some obstructing spirit beasts along the way, all of which were dealt with by Li Lang.

When Mu Yuan didn't act, he would order Liu Wan'er to do so. Li Lang, not wanting his cousin to get tired, reluctantly took on the troublesome task.

After about an hour, the surroundings became increasingly sparse, but they could sporadically find the corpses of one or two spirit beasts on the road.

Those spirit beasts were actually mid-level spirit beasts.

Mu Yuan knew these were the spirit beasts cleared out when the Earth Spirit Valley's restrictions were opened, and he also knew they were reaching their destination.

As expected, after the three passed through another patch of forest, their vision suddenly opened up. A stream flowed through the gravelly ground, and on the other side, a small valley appeared.

The valley entrance before them was narrow, with dense branches extending from both sides. Amidst the piles of rocks, the valley was hidden, appearing and disappearing.

"Let's go."

Mu Yuan took out the Earth Spirit Token, and a gap immediately appeared at the valley entrance. The three then agilely darted through the gap and rushed into the valley.

In the center of the valley stood a tree.

A giant tree, like a blooming flower.

Through its verdant branches, specks of emerald-like color could be seen. These were round fruits, and even from this distance, their faint fragrance could be smelled, invigorating the mind and spirit.

That tree was naturally the Earth Spirit Tree.

Around the Earth Spirit Tree, not a blade of grass grew; only this single Earth Spirit Tree stood.

"Heh heh... everyone's arrived quite early!"

Just then, a light laugh rippled out, carrying an aura like a spring breeze.

"Aren't you also arriving just in time?"

A voice filled with ferocity also sounded.

Then, several figures came whistling.

Swish!

Swish!

Twelve figures appeared before Mu Yuan and the other two.

Without exception, all of them had cultivation levels above the Half-step Spirit Wheel Realm.

Six from the Eastern Spiritual Territory and six from the Western Spiritual Territory.

The four strongest among them were all at the peak of the early Spirit Wheel Realm.

They were the two great geniuses from the Eastern Spiritual Territory and the Western Spiritual Territory respectively.

Nie Daoqun and Liu Tairong from the Eastern Spiritual Territory.

Wang Kangping and Yuan Xueyang from the Western Spiritual Territory.

The other eight were their helpers, all with cultivation levels at the Half-step Spirit Wheel Realm and early Spirit Wheel Realm.

Nie Daoqun spoke first, looking at Liu Wan'er with great dissatisfaction.

"Liu Wan'er, the two great territories only gave your Mercenary Realm one spot out of consideration for that old fossil of yours!"

This dissatisfaction carried a strong sense of hostility.

The spot given to the Mercenary Realm was originally theirs from the Eastern Spiritual Territory.

"However, you should have been prepared. If I'm not mistaken, the guy next to you is only at the mid-level Spiritual Movement Realm!"

Nie Daoqun pointed at Mu Yuan, who stood beside Liu Wan'er, his voice suddenly turning cold.

"Kid, do you know your appearance is an insult to us?"

Mu Yuan remained silent.

Simply put, he couldn't be bothered to waste words.

His silence, however, only angered Nie Daoqun more.

Liu Wan'er taking a spot from their Eastern Spiritual Territory had already displeased him. Now, to be ignored by a mere ant at the mid-level Spiritual Movement Realm. Especially in front of the geniuses from the Eastern and Western Spiritual Territories present, he, a top-three genius in the Eastern Spiritual Territory, was being ignored by an ant. Afterwards, this matter might even become a laughingstock.

Damn it!

The next moment, Nie Daoqun indeed made his move.

Without any hesitation.

His potent spiritual energy surged out, transforming into a long spiritual energy blade before him.

Whoosh!

As the blade condensed, it shot out violently. Its sharp blade energy easily pierced the air, moving at extreme speed.

Everyone had only just reacted, but no one sympathized with Mu Yuan.

In fact, the eyes of many geniuses present held a trace of indifference, even a sense of "he deserved to be killed."

In their opinion, the appearance of a nobody like Mu Yuan here was already polluting their sight.

Death was too good for him!
