Liu Mu: I'll Definitely Be an Angel Investor!

After leaving Green Mountain Town, Chen Changqing flew on his sword.

Looking down, the mountains and rivers below stretched out in a continuous, undulating pattern, rushing past his eyes at high speed.

Where to go next?

Chen Changqing muttered to himself.

Although he decided not to return to Mount Shu for the time being, he would travel outside for a while.

But at that moment, he didn't know where to go.

"Um?"

Just as Chen Changqing was pondering, an unusual fluctuation emanated from his Storage Bag.

The next moment, Chen Changqing had a thought and directly took something out of his Storage Bag.

Immediately, a Token appeared in his palm.

The Token was entirely Mysterious Black, with many intricate patterns engraved on it.

It resembles a symbol but is not a symbol; it resembles an array but is not an array.

"It's this?"

Chen Changqing was slightly startled and somewhat surprised.

This Token was what he obtained when he went to Green Creek Village.

At that time, he was still cultivating in the Outer Sect Seven Courtyards of Mount Shu.

Led by Elder Liu Mu, he went to Green Creek Village on a mission along with disciples such as Liu Ruyan.

During this time, Chen Changqing killed a large number of disciples of the Demon Sect.

Finally, they broke through the restrictive Secret Method within a Blood Pool and entered the Purple Mansion Secret Realm.

And it was within that Purple Mansion Secret Realm that this Token was obtained.

After returning to Mount Shu, Chen Changqing tried various methods to find out what secrets the Token held.

Unfortunately, despite trying various methods, the Token remained completely unresponsive.

"Strange, why is this Token making such a commotion at this moment?"

Chen Changqing hesitated for a moment, then looked down at the black Token in his palm.

It could be sensed that the Token was slightly warm at this moment, and some dense patterns were faintly flowing on the dark surface of the token.

In addition, the Token was vibrating and constantly pointing in one direction.

"Interesting."

Is this guiding me in the right direction?

Chen Changqing muttered to himself, clearly feeling the guidance he was receiving from the Token.

"This item is Purple Mansion Legacy Treasure; it must be extraordinary."

"Fine!"

Since we don't have a specific destination yet, we might as well follow the directions and find out!

After thinking it over, a resolute look flashed in Chen Changqing's eyes, and he decided to follow the Token's guidance to take a look.

Then, it adjusted the direction of the Rainbow Sword and flew quickly in the direction indicated by the Token.

Time flies, and several days have passed in the blink of an eye.

At this time, Wang Yang and Ran Hua had already returned to Mount Shu.

Ran Hua returned to the Seventh Courtyard of the Outer Sect, intending to cultivate diligently and strive for good results in the next Outer Sect Disciple Competition to enter the Inner Sect.

Wang Yang then returned to Azure Firmament Valley, the Inner Sect's territory.

Upon returning, Wang Yang immediately went to see Liu Mu.

"Disciple greets Elder Liu Mu!"

Wang Yang bowed deeply to the Liu Mu.

"Um?"

Liu Mu glanced at Wang Yang and, finding Wang Yang alone, asked in surprise:

Wang Yang.

Why are you the only one who came back?

Where is Changqing?

Upon hearing Liu Mu's question, Wang Yang didn't hesitate and quickly replied:

"Reporting to the elder."

"Junior Brother Chen said he wanted to travel around for a while before returning to Mount Shu, so he sent me back first."

"Let me inform the elder."

Upon hearing this, Liu Mu frowned slightly, his expression becoming somewhat solemn, and said in a deep voice:

"That kid is really something."

"I wonder if he and Bai Hao have another scheduled match in a little over two months?"

Earlier, Bai Hao, who was ranked tenth on the Inner Sect Top 100 Ranking, took the initiative to invite Chen Changqing.

It is hoped that Chen Changqing can join the ranks of the Tenth Sequence Holy Son.

But Chen Changqing refused.

In addition, Chen Changqing also took the initiative to challenge Bai Hao, setting a three-month deadline for their battle on the Top 100 Arena!

Originally, Liu Mu had planned to give Chen Changqing some proper guidance after his return.

Unexpectedly, Chen Changqing did not choose to return to Mount Shu immediately, but instead traveled around outside.

What worries Liu Mu even more is...

He had recently heard that the Tenth Sequence Holy Son had emerged from seclusion.

The Holy Son was quite displeased upon learning that Chen Changqing had rejected his invitation.

That will definitely help Bai Hao break through.

After all, if Bai Hao were to lose to Chen Changqing, wouldn't he, as the Tenth Holy Son, lose all face?

Seeing Liu Mu's solemn expression, Wang Yang quickly said:

"Elder."

"Back in Green Mountain Town, Junior Brother Chen's cultivation had already broken through to the Middle Core Formation Stage."

"The amount of internal True Qi within his body has reached forty thousand strands."

"Moreover, he even killed a Golden Core Realm expert!"

"After that, my junior brother's cultivation seems to have improved again, but I cannot see the exact extent of it."

Upon hearing Wang Yang's words, Liu Mu was greatly shocked, his face filled with disbelief.

"What?"

"Core Formation killing Golden Core cultivator?"

Another breakthrough?

Liu Mu cried out in surprise.

Wang Yang nodded and murmured an "Mmm":

"That's right!"

"Changqing Brother Changqing's cultivation talent is probably unmatched even by the monstrous geniuses of the Seven Main Peaks."

"Give him some time, and he will surely become a rising star in the Mount Shu."

Liu Mu neither confirmed nor denied what Wang Yang said, and simply replied:

"Okay, I understand. You may leave."

Wang Yang bowed deeply to Liu Mu and then left.

Even after Wang Yang left, the worry on Liu Mu's face did not dissipate much.

He also knew that Chen Changqing had exceptional talent in cultivation and was progressing rapidly.

I'm afraid that Chen Changqing might die before he can truly grow up.

You should know that he had high hopes for Chen Changqing.

He even cultivated Chen Changqing as his future backer in Mount Shu.

Unlike others, Liu Mu had no powerful backers in Mount Shu.

Liu Mu also had no desire to attach himself to the powerful figures of Mount Shu.

In his view, it's better to invest in a future powerhouse than to depend on others.

Chen Changqing's talent is evident to all.

"Why..."

As he pondered, Liu Mu let out a long sigh and remarked:

"I just hope this kid can return safely!"

Meanwhile, at Cloud Perch Peak.

Inside the small pavilion halfway up the mountain.

Liu Ruyan was holding a long sword in her jade-like hand.

This longsword, with its chilling gleam and shimmering blue light, exuding Dao Resonance, was clearly extraordinary at first glance.

"Miss."

"Wang Yang has returned to the Inner Sect."

However, Chen Changqing did not return to Mount Shu with him.

Just as Liu Ruyan was examining the long sword, an old woman approached and reported the following.

"Oh?"

Upon hearing what the old woman said, Liu Ruyan was slightly surprised.

"Hasn't he come back?"

"His battle with Bai Hao is imminent, why hasn't he returned yet?"

Liu Ruyan asked softly, somewhat puzzled.

Upon hearing this, the old woman pursed her lips and said:

"Please rest assured, Miss, I will continue to send people to investigate."

"As soon as there is any news about him, report it to Miss immediately."

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan took a deep breath, nodded, and then looked down at the long sword in her hand.

"It seems we can only wait until he returns before giving him the Azure Underworld Sword!"
