"You actually killed Shela?" Ba Mu said incredulously.
Yet the Old Woman was nowhere to be seen, while the Demigod-Class Item she had brought this time had already fallen into Jiang Qiao's hands.
Although it was difficult to accept.
The answer was already obvious.
"Heh."
"Sacred Mountain still underestimated you. If I'm not mistaken, you have a Demigod-Class Item on you as well."
Ba Mu took a deep breath.
He slowly calmed down.
Shela was not only a Ninth Tier Peak Expert.
Looking across the entire Supernatural World, she was already considered the strongest person beneath the demigod level. She surpassed the City Lord of Nightmare City and was publicly recognized as a terrifying figure who might one day set foot in the forbidden realm of demigods.
To kill her.
And to kill her in such a short time.
Apart from a demigod taking action, one could only rely on a Demigod-Class Supernatural Item—and it had to be a relatively powerful one at that.
"What are you thinking?"
"Go ahead and say it."
The old man raised his head and looked at Jiang Qiao.
"You didn't kill me. You must be planning to get something from me."
As he spoke.
He looked at the short staff in Jiang Qiao's hand.
"My guess is that you want to ask me about the Heaven Measuring Staff. You must have already experimented with it but couldn't find any clues, so you don't know how to use it."
"Oh?" A glint flashed in Jiang Qiao's eyes. "As expected, old geezers are all clever."
"That saves me the trouble of wasting my breath."
"Since you've already guessed it, tell me what you know. I can consider letting you leave."
"Consider?"
Ba Mu suddenly laughed.
Perhaps he had already prepared himself for the worst possible outcome.
