Six-star Dou Practitioner, Terrifying Indeed!

After making some preparations, Lin Mu left the Snake People Tribe. Behind him, a Black Robe Figure followed at an unhurried pace. It was naturally Medusa. She had concealed her aura well, but her nearly perfect figure was still fully outlined beneath the black robe.

Most importantly, Medusa had successfully hidden her snake tail. Otherwise, if she appeared in a city like that, she would likely cause an immediate panic. Even if she merely drew a crowd, with Medusa's temperament, it would not be impossible for her to fly into a rage and begin a massacre.

Qingshan Town.

Lin Mu landed in the bustling marketplace and picked a lucky passerby from the street beside him. He asked, "Brother, do you know where Xiao Yi Xian is?"

"You're looking for Xiao Yi Xian?"

The passing man gave Lin Mu a disdainful look. "There are plenty of people like you who want to see Xiao Yi Xian. In the end, every last one of them gets beaten half to death by Mu Li."

"Mu Li? Who was that?"

Lin Mu did not react for a moment.

"You don't even know Mu Li, yet you dare set your sights on Xiao Yi Xian?" The man glanced at Lin Mu. "Mu Li is the Young Leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group. He's already a Six-star Dou Practitioner! Terrifying indeed!"

"Ah... right, right, right. Thanks, brother. You're right. Mu Li really is an expert."

Lin Mu patted the man on the shoulder, then found out where the Myriad Medicine Pavilion was and headed there with Medusa following behind him.

The man looked at Medusa, who was draped in a black robe beside Lin Mu. How could he fail to recognize that she was a woman? His expression immediately turned strange. "Where did this fool come from? He already has a woman at his side, yet he still wants to look for Xiao Yi Xian?"

"Don't let it end with him losing both the woman beside him and his life to Mu Li. Ah, just thinking about how Mu Li can possess so many beauties at once hurts worse than killing me..."

Lin Mu soon arrived at a manor. There were guards outside, but they seemed to be gathered together at the moment. The people nearby were also looking in that direction as though they were watching a spectacle.

"What happened?"

Lin Mu walked over and saw a somewhat arrogant-looking man speaking to a woman in white amid the crowd. On the man's chest was a Wolf Head Shaped Medal.

"Xiao Yi Xian, you know how I feel about you. As long as you agree to become my woman, my Wolf Head Mercenary Group will not treat you poorly."

The man spoke.

Anger appeared on Xiao Yi Xian's lovely face. "Mu Li, if you refuse to move aside, I will never cooperate with you to enter the mountains and gather herbs again."

Yet Mu Li acted as though he had not heard her and continued chattering away beside Xiao Yi Xian.

Xiao Yi Xian's jade-like hand gripped a small bottle in her pocket, and her pearly teeth bit lightly into her red lips. She was clearly hesitating over something. She was wondering whether to use the Dou Qi Powder Lin Mu had given her.

Although that would allow her to kill Mu Li with ease.

It would also inevitably invite retaliation from the Wolf Head Mercenary Group. Moreover, she did not know how many times she could use the powder Lin Mu had given her, so she did not dare gamble.

"Xiao Yi Xian!"

The surrounding crowd suddenly fell silent as a voice drew everyone's attention.

Xiao Yi Xian froze, then looked toward the voice. Lin Mu slowly walked out of the crowd and smiled at her. "I finally found you."

"Lin Mu? Why are you here?"

Joy rose in Xiao Yi Xian's heart, and a smile appeared on her face as well.

In a situation like this, Lin Mu's sudden arrival truly gave Xiao Yi Xian a sense of emotional support.

"I need your help with something, so I came to see you."

Lin Mu said.

"Is it only because you need help?"

Xiao Yi Xian spoke softly. Her voice was so quiet that Lin Mu did not hear her clearly. Then she gave a sly smile. "What could you possibly need my help with?"

"It's..."

Before Lin Mu could finish, Mu Li interrupted him from behind.

"Kid, who the hell are you? I'm warning you, Xiao Yi Xian is my woman. If you don't want to lose your life, get down, kowtow a few times, and scram!"

Seeing Xiao Yi Xian chatting and smiling with Lin Mu, Mu Li, who had never received such treatment from her, could not bear it. The surrounding people also sighed. It seemed Lin Mu was doomed to die today.

After offending the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, he would have no place left in Qingshan Town.

"Mu Li, when did I ever say I was your woman?" Xiao Yi Xian said coldly.

"Enough, enough. Don't argue with a dog. It might get worked up and bite someone."

As Lin Mu spoke, he prepared to leave with Xiao Yi Xian. Only then did Mu Li seem to notice the black-robed Medusa beside Lin Mu. When he saw the perfect figure beneath that robe, a lecherous gleam flashed through his eyes.

"With a body that good, there must be a beauty beneath that black robe."

Mu Li pointed at Lin Mu. "Kid, hand over the beauty beside you, and I'll spare your life today."

The moment those words left his mouth, Lin Mu immediately sensed that the world around them seemed to freeze. Beneath the black robe, a gathering surge of Dou Qi was about to erupt.

"Leave this to me."

Lin Mu sighed and slowly turned around. "You must be Young Leader Mu Li, then. At your age, you're only a Six-star Dou Practitioner? With talent like yours, you're not even as good as the He Yuan I saw in the Monster Beast Mountain Range."

"Kid, are you courting death?!"

Dou Qi burst forth from Mu Li's body as he threw a punch at Lin Mu.

Everyone covered their eyes, afraid that the sight of Lin Mu's skull shattering would frighten them. Yet after waiting for a moment, they did not see the expected scene of flesh and blood flying everywhere.

Mu Li's body was simply suspended in midair, imprisoned in place. No matter how he struggled, it was useless.

"What did you do?! Let me go now! Otherwise, once I get down there, I won't just have my way with your woman right in front of you, I'll also—"

Bang!

Mu Li's hand suddenly exploded.

Blood and flesh sprayed everywhere, and the crowd hurriedly retreated in terror.

"You could have lived, but you said the wrong thing."

Lin Mu said coldly.

"Ah!"

Mu Li immediately began screaming miserably.

Before long, his other hand, then his arms and lower legs, all exploded in a bizarre fashion.

Mu Li's voice grew weaker and weaker. In the end, his entire body exploded, while the scattered blood and flesh were strangely burned into nothingness by Black and White Flames.

"Mu Li... is dead?"

The people around them were terrified out of their wits and hurriedly fled, afraid that they would suffer retaliation from the Wolf Head Mercenary Group because of this.

Outside Qingshan Town.

"It was only Mu Li. Why didn't you take out the Dou Qi Powder I gave you and use it?" Lin Mu asked Xiao Yi Xian beside him.
