"I was wrong, I beg you, please forgive me!"
Tuoba Rong knelt on the ground, completely losing his arrogance as the chieftain of the Tuoba clan.
If only I had known then what I know now!
Meng Hui's face was icy cold. She had no interest in humiliating this person and instead struck Tuoba Rong's crown with a palm.
"Ah...!"
Tuoba Rong screamed and died on the spot.
In recent years, Meng Hui has switched to practicing Chen Mu's Five Elements Body Forging Art, and her cultivation level has broken through from the original Qi Nourishing Realm to the Early Stage of the True Spirit Realm. This palm strike is enough to shatter gold and split stone, and killing Tuoba Rong, whose dantian has been sealed, is no problem at all.
Just then, A Huo, carrying Mo Liexu in his hand, also rushed back.
" Chen Mu, how dare you! You openly violate the laws of the Heavenly Gods, using your Core Formation Realm to attack a cultivator like me who is below Core Formation Realm!"
Mo Liexu's mental fortitude was clearly much better. Even when facing a desperate situation, he remained calm and sternly rebuked Chen Mu.
Chen Mu looked at Mo Liexu, who was all bark and no bite, shook his head, and was too lazy to explain to him.
" Mo Liexu, actually I should thank you. If it weren't for you, my parents might have died long ago."
Back when Chen Haoran was being hunted down by Tuoba Rong, he was still at the Body Tempering Realm. Although he had already begun to awaken the God-Slaying Bloodline, Tuoba Rong was, after all, at the True Spirit Realm. If Tuoba Rong had insisted on killing him, it would have been hard to say what the outcome would have been.
"Unfortunately, you don't know how to recognize and utilize people effectively. You only know how to exploit your subordinates, demanding endlessly and squeezing out their surplus value."
My father expanded the territory of your Flame Blessing Tribe and made great contributions in battle, yet you won't even give him the status of an ordinary tribesman. From this point of view, you are not worthy of the position of chief.
Thinking of the suffering his parents had endured in the Flame Blessing Tribe over the years, Chen Mu felt an overwhelming urge to kill. He was about to raise his hand to send Mo Liexu on his way when Meng Hui stopped him.
" Mutou, don't kill him, crippling his cultivation is enough."
In the Wilderness, the strong are respected. Mo Liexu is not a wicked person; he is merely acting in the interests of his own tribe.
Chen Mu turned to look at Meng Hui and sighed.
"Since Mother has spoken, I will naturally obey."
He put two fingers together and gently tapped Mo Liexu, Mo Liexu then collapsed to the ground, barely breathing.
After dealing with those two, Chen Mu turned his attention to Mingye in the distance.
In the dimly lit basement, Mingye found her most feared enemy, Miao Min.
When Miao Min saw Mingye, she remained calm, as if she had known all along that Mingye would find her.
You've come!
"That's right, I've come to kill you."
"Heh, I've killed countless people in my life, but in the end, I died at the hands of the disciple I trained. I guess you could call it retribution."
Miao Min gave a self-deprecating smile, raising a gleaming dagger in each hand.
"Make your move! Let me see the power of the Core Formation Realm."
Whoosh! Clang!
In an instant, the dagger flew from Miao Min Miao Min's hand, its sharp blade already pressed against her neck.
Tell me! Where did you bring me back back then?
When Mingye was undergoing her Heart Demon Tribulation, she had already completely overcome her fear of Miao Min. Now, she just wanted to find out about her own background.
"You were sold to the slave market by a hunter from a small tribe. I've been investigating this for the past few years, but there's no such thing as identity in this Wilderness. It's been over twenty years, so there's no way to trace it."
Miao Min appeared quite composed.
With a soft thud, Mingye pierced Miao Min's heart with a single stab, ending her life cleanly and decisively.
Miao Min collapsed to the ground. Before she died, she kept looking at Mingye, a strange smile appearing on her lips, as if she were admiring her most satisfying masterpiece.
" Gu Zi'an, come out here!"
After dealing with the people he hated most in the Flame Blessing Tribe, Chen Mu called out.
Last night, Chen Mu had already sent Gu Zi'an with a group of Shadow Guards to the Flame Blessing Tribe overnight.
Gu Zi'an had once held a high position in the Flame Blessing Tribe, and after eliminating the Mo Lineage and Tuoba Lineage, it was undoubtedly most appropriate for him to take control of the Flame Blessing Tribe.
"My lord!"
A figure darted out from the corner and bowed respectfully to Chen Mu.
After the Shadow Guards was formed, they directly served Chen Mu as their master, so when they saw Chen Mu, they would directly address him as "Master".
"The rest is up to you. I'll have A Huo stay here to help you."
"Yes! Your subordinate will certainly live up to your expectations!"
Gu Zi'an's voice was strong and resonant, as if it were burning with a raging flame.
The reason he joined Chen Mu's side was because after the death of the Gu Lineage's ancestor, the Mo Lineage and Tuoba Lineage advantage of the Gu Lineage's misfortune, ultimately leading to the extermination of the entire clan, leaving only him and his sister to survive.
For the past few years, he had been thinking about revenge day and night, but he never imagined that his dream would come true so quickly.
Gu Zi'an was always steady in his work, Chen Mu trusted him completely. Then he looked at Meng Hui.
Mother, will you stay here too?
"Wait until you've finished dealing with everything before you go back with A Huo!"
Meng Hui has lived in the Flame Blessing Tribe for nearly ten years and must have experienced a lot. She may have made friends, but she is definitely more likely to have enemies. He wants Meng Hui to make her own decision on how to deal with these people.
"Good!"
Meng Hui understood Chen Mu's meaning and agreed.
Chen Village's territory already bordered the Flame Blessing Tribe's territory. Now that their main camp has been breached and A Huo is stationed there, the annexation of the entire tribe should be completed in a maximum of ten days.
Chen Mu still has a lot to do. As the chief technician and the true controller of Chen Village, it is not appropriate for him to spend too much time here in the Flame Blessing Tribe. Therefore, he decided to go back with Mingye first.
Before heading back, however, he planned to take a look around the Flame Blessing Tribe's warehouse.
With Chen Mu's Divine Soul realm and control over the five Spiritual Power, there was practically no place in the Flame Blessing Tribe that he couldn't explore. He spent some time and quickly found the Flame Blessing Tribe's warehouse.
The warehouses here in the Flame Blessing Tribe are far richer than the wealth of the Jianglan Tribe back then.
Chen Mu even found a piece of ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood, which contained a much richer wood element creation power than Jianmu branch he had exchanged for at the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion back then. However, he did not find the metal element Creation Artifact he lacked most at the moment.
He now wears two spatial wristbands, storing the magical treasures and spiritual materials he needs or that are particularly valuable inside them to prevent any unforeseen circumstances.
" Mingye, let's go back to Chen Village first! There are still many things waiting for us to take care of in the village!"
After the harvest, Chen Mu was very satisfied and called Mingye to leave together.
"Okay, let's go!"
Mingye responded and took to the air with Chen Mu, flying towards Chen Village.
