Longevity Begins With The Birth Of A Daughter At An Old Age

Chapter 46: Consider Me

"Is it because I'm too strong? Or are they too weak?"

Xu Mu, holding Xiao Yi's body, moved like lightning through the dark forest, swiftly leaping and easily avoiding protruding obstacles.

Originally, he wanted to test the patrol team's mastery of light body technique, but unfortunately, they were all too weak. Even with more than ten simultaneous attacks, they couldn't force him to go all out.

Xiao Yi, who had been expected to be promising, was also weak and easily killed with just one sword.

If it weren't for the fact that the Luo family had not yet been destroyed, and if he wasn't worried about these people revealing his identity after reaching the Liyang Sect, he could have completely dominated the entire team with an invincible posture.

Unfortunately, for the sake of his future life, he could only continue to endure.

Of course, there was another way, which was to kill everyone when they arrived at the Liyang Sect.

Clearly, he couldn't do it!

After Xu Mu and the team had distanced themselves, and he confirmed that there were no pursuers, they stopped by a small lake.

After looting all the valuable items from Xiao Yi's body, Xu Mu flicked his finger, and a fire snake appeared, wrapping around Xiao Yi's body and quickly turning it into ashes.

"Hmm?"

Just as Xu Mu turned around, preparing to go back, he suddenly felt a chill on his back, as if he was being watched.

His eyebrows furrowed, and he quickly turned around.

There was nothing behind him!

In his perception, there was also nothing.

"Is it just my imagination?"

A hint of confusion appeared in his eyes.

That feeling reminded him of the encounter with the Evil Cult in the slums back then.

"Speaking of which, we've been traveling for so long and haven't encountered any Evil Cult members yet! I hope I'm not the first to encounter them this time."

The Evil Cult was different from demonic beasts; they were a kind of spiritual entity with abilities that many ordinary people couldn't understand.

Xu Mu took out a talisman from his body, but there was no reaction.

"Could it be that I'm overthinking?"

After confirming that there was no problem, Xu Mu disappeared in a flash.

Just as he left, a beautiful red flower slowly bloomed at the spot where the body had turned to ashes.

Under the moonlight, an illusory soul appeared at the center of the flower.

Although the soul was blurry, Xiao Yi's appearance could still be vaguely recognized.

"So, the flower on my forehead is really the legendary reincarnation flower that purifies the soul and carries memories to the next life!"

Xiao Yi exclaimed excitedly.

Back then, he accidentally fell into a secret realm and obtained a red exotic flower. He originally thought it was some kind of extraordinary treasure, but after consuming it, it had no use except leaving a mark on his forehead.

Afterward, he searched through ancient books and found that it was similar to the legendary reincarnation flower, except that the power of the reincarnation flower could only be activated after death.

And it had to be an abnormal death!

Xiao Yi had never dared to try it!

If Xu Mu hadn't killed him this time, he might never have been able to unleash the power of the reincarnation flower.

"Whoever you are, I have to thank you! Rest assured, in the next life, I will make you suffer!"

With the power of the reincarnation flower, he could start cultivating from the moment he was born in the next life, laying an unparalleled foundation for himself and having limitless prospects in the future.

Not to mention the Foundation Building stage that he couldn't achieve in this life, even the Gold Core stage, Nascent Soul stage, and even the legendary Soul Formation stage, he would have a chance to touch.

"You bastard, just you wait... Huh? Why did he come back?!"

Xiao Yi quickly used the power of his soul to hide himself.

Just as Xu Mu had already left, he reappeared by the lake in a few steps.

He spread out his hand, and the fire elements in the void began to gather, quickly forming a ball of blue flames.

He threw the blue flame ball towards the spot where the body had burned, and then quickly left himself.

"What is this... Ah!"

Just as Xiao Yi's soul appeared and hadn't figured out what Xu Mu had thrown, the entire blue flame ball exploded, engulfing his soul in an extremely fierce and raging flame, instantly reducing the area within a hundred meters to ashes.

"Indeed, I feel much better this way!"

After taking a glance, Xu Mu finally felt relieved.

Once bitten by a snake, one would be afraid of well ropes for ten years!

He casually experimented with the power of the compressed fireball.

Clearly, it didn't disappoint him!

With this kind of power, it was not impossible to kill Foundation Building stage demonic beasts!

Turning around and leaving, Xu Mu returned to his original appearance and quickly disappeared into the night.

The night wind blew, and everything returned to tranquility.

...

"Darling?"

"Yes?"

In the darkness, Ye Yingying didn't ask anything, she just buried her head deeply, smelling the familiar scent.

Little Ling'er beside her rolled to the side, sleeping soundly.

"Ying'er, if I take a concubine, will you be upset?" Xu Mu suddenly asked.

Ye Yingying trembled slightly and softly said, "As long as my lord likes it, it's good! Ying'er will listen to my lord!"

Xu Mu didn't say anything, but tightly embraced her.

"My lord worked hard today! Let Ying'er take care of it!"

Ye Yingying lowered her body and opened her mouth.

...

The next day, the impact from yesterday still lingered. The remaining four cultivators at the late Qi Refining stage were on high alert, ready for anything.

The originally planned journey was delayed.

When Xu Mu walked out of the tent, Lan Shijin, who had been hesitating outside for a long time, immediately looked over with a mix of surprise and doubt in her beautiful eyes.

There was no way around it, it was too easy to arouse suspicion!

Yesterday, she had just told Xu Mu about Xiao Yi's situation, and Xiao Yi was killed that night.

It was too coincidental!

"I know what Fellow Daoist Lan is thinking! Let's talk inside!"

Xu Mu pointed to her tent.

Lan Shijin hesitated for a moment and walked in.

Xu Mu followed closely behind.

Inside the tent, Leng Yue Ning, with slightly messy hair, was organizing her things. When she saw the two enter, she quickly stopped and sat up straight.

She had naturally heard about Xiao Yi's death.

Inevitably, she also suspected Xu Mu.

But she couldn't quite believe it!

After all, Xu Mu had always appeared harmless.

Except for the night before they set off!

After the three of them sat down, Xu Mu stuck a soundproofing talisman to prevent anyone outside from hearing their conversation.

Seeing Xu Mu's actions, the two became even more nervous.

Because if it wasn't something important, Xu Mu would never do this.

"I killed Xiao Yi!"

Xu Mu spoke, shocking the two into speechlessness.

They had only been guessing, but they didn't expect Xu Mu to actually admit it.

But how was that possible?

Xiao Yi was a well-known cultivator at the late Qi Refining stage, powerful, while Xu Mu was only at the sixth level of Qi Refining, with alchemy as his main profession.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, are you joking?" Lan Shijin couldn't believe it.

Leng Yue Ning also looked at him, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.

Xu Mu didn't say anything, he just took out the robe he had taken from Xiao Yi.

The two had seen this robe more than once, so they recognized it at a glance.

"How is this possible!"

Even at this moment, the two still found it hard to believe.

Because it was just too unbelievable!

The reason Xu Mu took it out and told them was because it would be troublesome to keep it a secret, and the road ahead was still long. His strength would be exposed sooner or later, so it was better to clarify it in advance.

"Did you also kill those people last time? Are you the killer everyone is talking about?"

Lan Shijin was both surprised and fearful.

Since the last time he waved his hand and dealt with Zhou Chong and the others, there had been various rumors about him in the team. Some said he was a powerful bandit, some said he was a transformed evil cultist, and some said he was sent by the Soul Refining Sect to specifically hunt them down.

In the end, everyone referred to him as the killer!

"That's right!"

Xu Mu nodded and admitted.

The two were speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

They had thought he was just a harmless little lamb, but in the blink of an eye, he had become a big bad wolf.

Fortunately, the two were somewhat mentally prepared. They had vaguely guessed when they were in the slums because of the traces left behind that were similar to when Zhou Chong and the others were killed.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Xu!"

After calming down, Lan Shijin deeply thanked Xu Mu.

Her attitude was much more respectful than before.

"Fellow Daoist Lan, do you remember what I said yesterday?" Xu Mu smiled.

Lan Shijin remembered.

Yesterday, Xu Mu had said that after everything was done, he wanted to ask her for a favor.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, please speak. As long as I can do it, I will definitely agree!"

This time, Xu Mu had killed Xiao Yi, which could be said to have saved Leng Yue Ning. It was definitely a great favor.

"It's actually not a big deal!"

Xu Mu lightly flicked his finger, not wanting to beat around the bush, and directly revealed his cards to the two. "When we arrive at the Liyang Sect, I plan to establish a family. So, if Miss Yue Ning wants to get married, why not consider me first?"

PS: Fellow Daoist Lan, if you want to remarry, you can also consider me!
