"You Liu Domain people brought in Ji Zong, and I wasn't afraid. What makes you, Liu Mu Bai, worth fearing?"
Mu Yuan shrugged, not taking Liu Mu Bai seriously at all.
"Ji Zong was useless. You and Mu Chen must have simply been lucky enough to break his array."
"So the reason you escaped Ji Zong alive had little to do with your actual ability, right?"
"Trying to use him to intimidate me is rather naive."
Liu Mu Bai sneered.
After that day, he had returned to Northern Spiritual City to investigate the scene.
Only then had he understood why Mu Yuan and Mu Chen had been able to escape from Ji Zong.
Mu Yuan could not be bothered to waste words arguing with a self-righteous Liu Mu Bai.
Seeing that Mu Yuan ignored him, Liu Mu Bai's eyes turned utterly frigid. Then, like a hawk diving upon its prey, he lunged at Mu Yuan.
At the same time, his hand curled into an eagle claw as blazing red spiritual energy surged forth, radiating scorching heat as it slammed mercilessly toward Mu Yuan.
Liu Mu Bai's attack was vicious and swift. Mu Yuan had no time to draw his sword, so he met it with a fist, golden sharpness abruptly emerging from it.
Boom!
Mu Yuan's fist collided head-on with Liu Mu Bai's eagle claw. A dull impact rang out, and a visible wave of spiritual energy spread outward, blasting away all the fallen leaves around their feet.
Liu Mu Bai's body trembled slightly as he staggered back several steps. Shock flashed through his eyes.
"The late Spiritual Movement Realm?"
It had not been long since Mu Yuan fought Liu Yang, yet he had already advanced from the early Spiritual Movement Realm to the late Spiritual Movement Realm.
