Chapter 434: Chapter 436: Siblings Reunite (Part 3)
Mu Ruyue had promised to take Ye Wuchen to the back mountain, so she brought him there early in the morning. It was not until they reached the back mountain that he understood why this place attracted him, why he was willing to enter the Central State Academy…
It was all because of the strength he had left behind.
However, absorbing this strength could not be done in a short time, yet Mu Ruyue’s heart was preoccupied with Xiao Feng’s safety, and thus she did not wait for Ye Wuchen and chose to set out alone towards the Fengyun Empire.
At this moment, above the Demon Beast Mountain on the way to the Fengyun Empire, Mu Ruyue carefully used her sword to clear the weeds blocking the path and looked up at the blue sky.
“I don’t know how long it will take to reach the Imperial City of the Fengyun Empire. Xiao Feng is there now, but I must go.”
Boom!
Boom boom boom!
Just then, sounds of fighting came from ahead, a strong energy spread from the sky, as if a wave of light was forcing its way down.
Mu Ruyue’s heart tightened greatly; under this oppressive force, she actually found it hard to breathe.
“I don’t know who is fighting over there.”
Her brows slightly furrowed, and her gaze penetrated the thicket to settle on two figures standing against the wind in the void.
They were two elders of similar age. One was in red robes with white hair, and the other was clad in a yellowish-brown robe. Both had equally formidable presences.
“Huang He, hand over that treasure book quickly, and perhaps I’ll spare you a death!”
These words were spoken by the elder in the yellowish-brown robe, his brows fierce, coldly staring at the red-clad elder before him.
The old man laughed loudly, “Song Mu, if you have the ability, come and take it.”
“Hmph, save your breath, I must get my hands on the treasure book today!”
The elder known as Song Mu in the yellowish-brown robe snorted coldly, raising his hand to unleash a powerful energy towards Huang He, and with a loud bang, the energy hit a tree behind, which suddenly collapsed.
Treasure book?
Mu Ruyue’s eyes flickered with light; her footsteps, originally intending to leave, stopped upon hearing these words.
Both elders had considerable strength, at least above Luo Yin’s; what could the treasure book be for which they were fighting so fiercely?
“Song Mu, you’ve been hunting me for so long, I will never let you go, die!” Huang He’s strength surged to its peak. Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he charged toward Song Mu.
Meanwhile, Song Mu also brought his energy to its full height…
After several days of combat, both had nearly depleted the Qi within their bodies, and now what they could muster was only their final moves…
Bang!
After the sound of a fierce collision, two figures fell from the sky and crashed heavily onto the ground.
Blood gurgled from Song Mu’s mouth, his eyes filled with anger, but ultimately he couldn’t articulate a word…
“Hahaha, Song Mu, this is the consequence of trying to steal my possession!”
Huang He laughed loudly, taking out an elixir from his ring and swallowing it before sitting down cross-legged on the ground.
It was at this moment that a figure caught his eye.
It was a young person in white, wearing a bamboo hat that obscured their face, indistinguishable whether male or female…
Huang He frowned, giving Mu Ruyue a cold look, “What is it you want, young master?”
Instinctively, Huang He treated the person before him as a man.
Young master?
Mu Ruyue was taken aback, a gleam of light flashing in her eyes beneath the hat. She deliberately altered her voice, speaking in a low tone, “May I ask what treasure book you two were fighting over?”
