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

Chapter 56: Jungle Horror

"Please spare me, senior?"

This time, Xu Mu truly felt the gap in strength between the two, they were completely on different levels.

He really had the worst luck, how did he end up provoking such a monster!

"You react quite quickly! Spare you? Hehe!"

"Lan Shijin" sneered, her face melting like rubber, gradually distorting.

This made Xu Mu realize once again that the other party was not human.

"You killed my pet and still have the audacity to disregard me in broad daylight! Now you want me to spare you! Haha!"

"Do you think I'm a Buddha in a temple!"

The voice emitted by "Lan Shijin" was like shattered glass shards, unbearable to hear.

"A misunderstanding? Disregard?"

Xu Mu suddenly realized, could it be related to Leng Yue Ning?

"Senior, this is just a misunderstanding. I didn't know this was your territory. If I had known, I definitely wouldn't have acted recklessly!"

Xu Mu's face was filled with sincere remorse.

"You call this a misunderstanding? If I'm not satisfied today, don't even think about leaving alive!"

In the next moment, two ice-cold slender hands touched his skin, causing Xu Mu's hair to stand on end.

"What's going on?"

The busy "Lan Shijin" had a cold gaze, her eyes changing into golden vertical pupils, looking even more horrifying.

"Yesterday, you were happy, weren't you? What's going on today?"

"Lan Shijin" opened her mouth, her appearance gradually distorting, her teeth becoming sharp like the serrated teeth of a shark, densely packed. It seemed like if Xu Mu didn't give her a satisfactory answer, she would bite his head off.

"..."

Xu Mu was speechless.

Yesterday, I didn't know your true identity, so of course I was happy!

But today, I know!

Even if you lend me courage, I wouldn't dare!

It's true that something bad is bound to happen in the wilderness. The ancients didn't deceive me!

"Senior, how about... how about you change your appearance?" Xu Mu smiled and suggested.

I can't bear your current appearance!

"Oh? I almost forgot!"

"Lan Shijin" revealed a terrifying smile, suddenly realizing something, and her face slowly returned to normal.

The other party was just an ordinary person, naturally unable to understand the beauty of their race.

"Tell me! What kind of appearance do you like?"

"Lan Shijin" said!

"Cough cough! Senior, how about...!"

This way, I can feel a little less guilty!

Xu Mu comforted himself.

"Oh! Is that so? But why do I feel like you actually prefer my current appearance?"

"Lan Shijin" chuckled lightly.

"..."

Don't talk nonsense! I don't!

If you continue like this, I'll sue you for defamation!

"But always being like this seems a bit boring!"

While "Lan Shijin" laughed lightly, her appearance quickly distorted and soon turned into the appearance of "Leng Yue Ning," even her cold temperament was exactly the same.

"Kid, you're really dishonest!"

"Lan Shijin" felt the change in her palm and laughed lightly.

"..."

I'm not, I really am not!

"You humans are truly hypocritical! Hehe!"

Speaking, the woman transformed into another person.

This kind of Divine Ability left Xu Mu speechless with shock.

It's too terrifying!

"You're becoming more and more useless! Hmph!"

The mysterious woman coldly snorted, transforming successively into the appearances of Su Qing, Chi Feiyan, Li Moqing, and others.

It seemed like she had some kind of ability to see the images deep within Xu Mu's heart.

Such a strange ability, even if he knew the other party was inhuman, he still couldn't control himself.

"Senior!" Xu Mu lamented.

This time, he truly experienced what it meant for the person in his heart to be right in front of him!

...

Time passed in the blink of an eye.

Before Lan Shijin changed shifts, the woman quietly left without a sound.

It seemed like she didn't want others to know of her existence.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, are you alright!"

Looking at the weak Xu Mu, Lan Shijin was full of doubt. It was the first time she had seen him in such a miserable state.

Xu Mu couldn't speak, he shook his head and went back to rest.

Time flies by!

One month later!

Just as they were about to leave the mountains, the woman mysteriously disappeared, not even leaving behind a name.

"I've worked so hard for so long and didn't even get any compensation, how stingy!" Xu Mu complained in his heart.

In order to deal with the other party, he had put all the Luck points he had gained in the past month into the Yin Yang Tong Ji technique, raising it to the level of mastery.

"I hope I didn't scare her away," he thought. In the past, he was only at the proficient level and could easily handle Ye Yingying and the others. Now that he had reached the mastery level, it would be even easier.

One could only say that the person who created this technique was incredibly powerful!

Thanks to the woman's protection, they didn't encounter any decent demonic beasts for the rest of the month.

Originally, Xu Mu had wanted to hunt down a few third-order demonic beasts, collect some materials, and exchange them for money in Liyang City. But that plan fell through.

At night, under the cold moon, Xu Mu admired the starry sky.

"Moo-gege, where should we settle down when we arrive in Liyang City?" Leng Yue Ning asked softly.

"Where do you want to go?" Xu Mu looked at her affectionately.

"Wherever you go, I'll go," Leng Yue Ning blushed slightly, like a celestial fairy tainted by the mortal world.

"Let's go to Liyang City then. It's where the sect of Liyang Zong is located, the safest and most prosperous place," Xu Mu said. In truth, the place Xu Mu really wanted to settle down was Tianhe City, where the sect of Tianhe Zong was located. There were Nascent Soul experts there. However, Tianhe City was far away and filled with powerful cultivators. He didn't feel at ease bringing a few people there with his current cultivation level. So he decided to adapt in Liyang City first, and when his strength improved, he would go to Tianhe City.

"Okay, I'll listen to you," Leng Yue Ning said obediently.

"You're so good," Xu Mu praised.

"Xu-gege, should we...?" Leng Yue Ning started to say something quietly.

"No rush," Xu Mu interrupted.

While the two were whispering, they suddenly heard a light cough from behind them.

Leng Yue Ning's face turned slightly red and she hurriedly ran back.

Seeing his daughter's appearance, Lan Shi Jin couldn't help but feel annoyed. She wasn't a fool. It had been so long, and she naturally noticed something was amiss.

"Fellow Daoist Lan!" Xu Mu greeted with a smile, not feeling embarrassed at all.

"Hmph!" Lan Shi Jin snorted coldly and sat down by the campfire.

"Fellow Daoist Lan, if there's nothing else, I'll go rest first," Xu Mu said, getting up and heading towards the tent.

"If anything happens to Ning'er, I won't spare you!" Lan Shi Jin threatened coldly from behind.

"Fellow Daoist Lan, rest assured!" Xu Mu replied without looking back.

With your strength, how could you spare me?

Inside the tent.

"Husband!"

"What's wrong?"

"Tomorrow, you should go to Sister Leng's place!"

"... You already know?"

"Mhm! Something feels off!"

How is that possible?

I clearly used a purification talisman!

Oops! I almost forgot!

I think I ran out of purification talismans a few days ago!

Come to think of it, I didn't clean the place where Lan Shi Jin was sitting just now!

...

"Ying'er, you're not jealous, are you?"

"No way! I'm just worried about you!"

A sweet smile appeared on Ye Yingying's fair and tender face.

"Ying'er!" Xu Mu looked at her with affection.

Where else could he find a wife who was so obedient and considerate?

"Don't worry! No one in this world can replace you!"

"Mhm!"

...

A few days later, the group arrived at Cui Ling Fang Market.

This place was under the jurisdiction of Liyang Zong and was the closest market to the Yun Ding Mountains.
