Miao Min was not alarmed. Instead, she sneered and followed Mingye, disappearing from the spot like a ghost.
Thump!
Mingye fell from mid-air, and Miao Min's knife was pressed against her back again.
Do you think I would act rashly without preparation?
Mingye's spatial dagger was no secret in the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion. Many people had witnessed her ability to traverse space. Miao Min only needed to make a few inquiries to figure out a way to deal with it.
To deal with the spatial dagger, Tuoba Rong paid a heavy price to borrow this 'Heavenly Net Shield' from an old friend. It can isolate space and is the nemesis of space-traveling magic weapons.
Mingye's face hardened, like a desperate, hungry wolf, and he turned to attack Miao Min.
Bang! Clang clang clang!
Under Mingye's onslaught, Miao Min handled it with ease, as if taking a leisurely stroll, muttering to herself as she defended herself.
"I taught you all your skills, how could you possibly be my match!"
A moment later, Miao Min kicked Mingye to the ground.
The kick was extremely powerful, Mingye coughed up a mouthful of blood, already seriously injured.
"Tell me! Why did you betray us? Is it because of... that talisman master kid in the next room?"
"No! It's because they want to refine my soul that I had no choice but to tell them about Chen Haoran!"
Master, you know how the tribe deals with traitors. Going back to the tribe is the same as dying anyway! It's better to die outside!
At this point, Mingye finally spoke up to defend himself.
"Heh heh...! Do you think there's no one in the clan who knows how to refine souls? By doing this, you'll only die a more miserable death!"
"But I want to live!"
Hearing Mingye say that, Miao Min felt a sense of relief.
Although the Shadow Guards are assassins, they are not suicide squads. Miao Min and the Tuoba Lineage actually have a cooperative relationship. She helps the Tuoba Lineage train assassins, but in essence, it is also for profit.
It's actually a good thing that the assassin has a survival instinct; it makes her easier to control.
"Alright! I'll give you one chance. Go and kill that talisman master kid over there!"
As long as you kill him, I will vouch for you, Tuoba Lineage will not pursue your defection!
All you need to do is let me re-imprint the Spirit-Locking Demonic Pattern.
Miao Min released the dagger from Mingye's neck, took two steps back, and looked at her with interest.
Miao Min had already secretly tried the Spirit-Locking Clasp, but it didn't react to Mingye at all.
She was actually quite surprised. The combination of the Spirit-Locking Demonic Pattern and the Spirit-Locking Clasp was an ancient secret she obtained during a fortuitous encounter. There shouldn't be many people in the world who could decipher this Demonic Pattern, and she never expected that Mingye would be able to encounter it.
After being released, Mingye glanced back at Miao Min and nodded.
"Okay! It's a deal!"
Miao Min grabbed Mingye's shoulder and injected her own Spiritual Power into Mingye's body, sealing her Spiritual Power.
"Don't try anything funny! Otherwise, I'll take you back to refine your soul."
After speaking, she reached out and waved her hand, and the 'Heavenly Net' in the air immediately shrank, turning into a small net that flew into her palm.
She grabbed Mingye, her body moving like a ghost, and darted through the window to the next room.
Although martial artists don't have strong Divine Soul, they have spiritual senses and can perceive the information of the surrounding living beings, so they instantly sensed Chen Mu meditating on the bed.
She threw out the 'Heavenly Net Shield' again. Since the Heavenly Net Shield can isolate space, it can naturally isolate sound and light, so no matter what happens here, the outside world will not be able to detect it.
Once the Heavenly Net Magic Shield was set up, Miao Min felt relieved.
With her strength at the Late True Spirit Realm, she didn't care at all about Chen Mu, who was only at the Late Qi Nourishing Realm. After setting up the Heavenly Net Formation, she felt that no matter what happened, it was completely under her control.
Go!
Miao Min loosened her grip on Mingye and pushed her forward a step.
Just then, an unexpected change occurred. A seven-colored light screen was unleashed from Mingye's hand, sweeping towards Miao Min.
" The Curtain of Unseen Longing!"
Miao Min was about to sneer when she discovered that the light barrier was emanating a chilling aura, and she hurriedly raised her hand to defend herself.
Mingye wasn't confident she could break free of the Heavenly Net Shield, so she didn't dare use the Seven-Colored Heavenly Art, since it was her most important Seven-Colored Heavenly Art card.
Now that they've unleashed this long-planned move, it's not something easily blocked.
ah!!
Miao Min cried out in pain as the seven-colored light curtain, like a world-destroying light, corroded her hands, leaving them a bloody mess.
"You're asking for it!!"
She flew into a rage, forming two enormous Spiritual Power handprints with her hands, and slammed them forward.
With a loud bang!
A flash of white light appeared on Mingye's body as he teleported away from the two giant hands.
Heart-Burning Flame!
Chen Mu had already noticed Miao Min as soon as she entered Chen Mu room.
As a talisman master, setting up simple warning formations during cultivation is already instinctive.
Because Elder Qing Xue was in the inn, he never actually expected to fight someone here, so he didn't make many preparations.
Sensing the power of the newcomer, he did not act rashly until he saw Mingye make a move, at which point he launched his own attack.
Under the scorching heat of the Heart-Burning Flame, Miao Min was momentarily distracted. Chen Mu seized the opportunity and pulled the trigger of his Rune Gun No. 3.
Bang!
The powerful Spiritual Power bullet, like a roaring dragon, rushed towards Miao Min's chest.
Pfft! Pfft!
The Spiritual Power bullet pierced through two protective shields, pinning Miao Min to the wall.
Wow!
Miao Min coughed up a mouthful of blood, her breath becoming noticeably weaker.
Whoosh!
Another seven-colored light curtain swept towards Miao Min, but Miao Min's figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.
"You're good! Mingye, I'll come back for you..."
Bang!
Chen Mu fired a shot into the air, but it was blocked by a transparent membrane.
He secretly regretted it; there had been too much time, and he had only used the Spiritual Power bullets from Rune Gun No. 3. If he had used the rune bullets he had created himself, that one shot would have been enough to kill the man.
Whoa...!
The transparent film in mid-air transformed into a small net and flew away into the distance. Chen Mu did not chase after it. Such a high-level magic weapon was not so easy to keep. Although Miao Min was injured, if he fought desperately, he would also be in danger.
" Mingye, are you alright?"
Mingye's face was somewhat pale. She sat down, and the Demonic Pattern on her back glowed faintly.
A moment later, her injuries finally stabilized.
I feel much better!
The healing Demonic Pattern on Mingye's back were modified by Chen Mu, so he could naturally tell that Mingye was alright and nodded.
"Was that someone from the Tuoba Lineage again?"
"Yes!"
Chen Mu fell silent.
Late at night, the two, having survived the ordeal, were both filled with emotion.
"Actually, Mingye, why did you follow me after I left Chen Village?"
Mingye looked up at Chen Mu, a rare hint of embarrassment appearing in her eyes.
Actually, I was planning to hunt you down!
She paused, as if in thought.
"After you let me go, I lingered around Chen Village for a long time."
From the time I was old enough to understand, I was an assassin for the Tuoba Lineage. I really don't know where I can go.
In the end, all I could think of was to seek revenge on you.
