Chapter 160 - Hidden Clan
The white light instantly crossed a thousand meters and headed straight for Bai Ye. When it got close to him, its power was already comparable to the full-power attack of a Legendary Stage expert!
In fact, this ball of white light was indeed a technique passed onto Mu Gui by a Legendary Stage expert. Once it hit its target, it could kill any Supreme Stage cultivator.
At this moment, it was already too late for Bai Ye to dodge, and he could only face it directly.
However, Bai Ye had no intention of facing it directly. Instead, he suddenly shouted, "Junior Brother, save me!"
Everyone was stunned. Junior Brother?
Hu!
Before everyone could react, a large golden hand suddenly blocked in front of Bai Ye.
After the white light, which was comparable to the full-power attack of a Legendary Stage expert, touched the golden palm, it shattered like a bubble without raising any waves..
"???"
There was dead silence!
Mu Gui rubbed his eyes in disbelief, thinking that he was hallucinating.
The attack method First Elder gave him was actually resolved just like that?
Are you kidding me?
"Hehe, Junior Brother, you saved my life again."
Bai Ye said nervously.
Before he could finish his sentence, a handsome youth with an extraordinary aura suddenly appeared on the field.
The youth looked at Mu Gui who was not far away and said indifferently, "Do you still want to continue?"
In an instant, Mu Gui felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and he felt a cold air surge from his feet to his head!
This feeling was too terrifying!
This person… was definitely not simple!
As one of the elders of the Mu Clan, Mu Gui knew very well how terrifying the First Elder was. That white light just now was an all-out attack condensed by the First Elder. No Supreme Stage cultivator would be able to withstand it.
In other words, this youth in front of him was at least a Legendary Stage expert!
The question was, why was there a Legendary Stage expert here?
Weren't the Three Major Sects the only ones in the Southern Land that had a handful of Legendary Stage experts?
Could the intelligence be wrong?
"No, no."
Mu Gui didn't have the time to think too much about it as he shook his head repeatedly. No matter what, they treasured their lives more. Since the other party was able to deal with the white light so casually, it meant that he could also kill them easily.
Mu Gui had no doubt about this.
"However, are you sure you want to become enemies with my Mu Clan?"
Mu Gui's eyes narrowed as he threatened.
"Mu Clan? What Mu Clan? I've never heard of that name."
Qin Jue wasn't impressed. He had even destroyed one of the Twelve Sacred Clans, the Spirit Clan. No matter how strong the Mu Clan was, how could they be stronger than the Spirit Clan?
Mu Gui :"…"
He had almost forgotten that their Mu Clan was a hidden clan that no one in the outside world had heard of!
"In that case, I hope you won't regret it."
After saying these words, Mu Gui didn't say anything else. He picked up Mu Yuan from the pit and turned around to return to his air-transportation spirit artifact.
With a Legendary Stage expert like Qin Jue present, it was clearly impossible for him to take Mu Ziqi away.
Mu Gui was not a young and arrogant profligate person. If he continued to act tough at this time, he would most likely be directly killed.
So what if someone avenged him in the future?
He would still be dead, with nothing left.
Moreover, Mu Gui wasn't sure if the First Elder would continue to pursue the matter after learning that there was a Legendary Stage expert in the faction Mu Ziqi was involved with. What if he changed his mind?
"Uncle Gui…"
Mu Qingyun was slightly unwilling, but after being glared at by Mu Gui, she could only obediently shut her mouth.
The hierarchy of the Mu Clan was strict and unquestionable. Mu Ziqi dared to challenge the Elders Guild, but Mu Qingyun did not.
Watching the air-transportation spirit artifact leave, Qin Jue placed his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent.
The reason why Qin Jue did not give chase was mostly because these people were from the same clan as Mu Ziqi. Otherwise, why would he have spared them?
Moreover, he had already sent his incarnation to send them a "warning".
He believed that after this "warning", the Mu Clan would definitely not come looking for trouble again.
"Hehe, Junior Brother's divine might is truly unparalleled in the world. It was settled so easily. As a reward, I will let you taste the pills I refine in the future."
Bai Ye flew forward and said happily.
Qin Jue :"…"
For some reason, he suddenly wanted to beat up Bai Ye. In fact, that was exactly what he did.
Boom!
The Xuanyi Mountain Sect shook again, but this time, the one who was beaten up was not the enemy, but Bai Ye.
"Hiss!"
Bai Ye drew a cold breath and grimaced in pain. "Junior Brother, are you trying to kill me?"
Qin Jue couldn't help but roll his eyes and couldn't be bothered with Bai Ye. His figure swayed and he directly disappeared from his original spot.
From beginning to end, Qin Jue did not put the so-called Mu Clan in his eyes. If not for that white light, he might not even need to take action.
Bai Ye :"…"
My junior brother is too cold-blooded!
"Are you okay?"
At this moment, Mu Ziqi flew over and asked.
"I'm fine."
Bai Ye got up from the rubble and patted his chest. He said indifferently, "I' had a Supreme Stage spirit artifact on me, after all."
"Mu Ziqi!"
…
Just now, Qin Jue had only casually punched him without using any strength. Otherwise, Bai Ye would have been in a worse state.
"Is he really your junior brother? How could he be so powerful?"
After hesitating for a moment, Mu Ziqi could not help but ask.
In fact, the first time she saw Qin Jue, Mu Ziqi already felt that he was not simple. After all, she was from an Illusionary Cultivator Clan and her spirit sense was even sharper than ordinary cultivators.
She already found it strange that Qin Jue didn't react when he received the Heaven Stage spirit artifact. It was unlike the behavior of someone his age.
It was just that she never expected Qin Jue to be so powerful that he could even resolve the First Elder's attack.
No wonder Bai Ye had been so calm the entire time.
"Of course," Bai Ye said proudly. "To have such a junior brother is the greatest pride… Uh, no, to have a wife like you is the greatest pride of my life."
Seeing Mu Ziqi's expression drop, Bai Ye hurriedly changed his words.
"Hmph, you did well today. I can give you a small reward tonight."
"Really?"
Bai Ye was overjoyed.
"However… I'm worried that the clan will continue to send experts over."
Mu Ziqi said worriedly.
"Don't worry, they won't."
Bai Ye waved his hand casually.
Just now, Qin Jue had already told him he was going to send his incarnation through a spirit energy transmission, so Bai Ye wasn't worried at all.
"Right, you still haven't told me what's going on."
Bai Ye changed the topic.
One had to know that when he first got to know Mu Ziqi, he did not know anything about the Mu Clan, nor did he know that Mu Ziqi was a holy maiden.
"I…"
After hesitating for a while, Mu Ziqi finally revealed her identity.
It turned out that besides the Three Major Sects and the Six Great Clans, there were also many hidden clans in the Southern Land, such as the Mu Clan.
The Mu Clan was from the Sacred Land of the Central Continent. Their ancestors had once produced a Saint Stage expert. However, after that Saint Stage expert died, the Mu Clan was forced to leave the Central Continent.
As for the current First Elder of the Mu Clan, his greatest wish was to bring his clan back to the Sacred Land of the Central Continent and recover its former glory.
As the holy maiden of the younger generation of the Mu Clan, Mu Ziqi was naturally given the hope of reviving the clan. That was why she said that being a holy maiden was like being a puppet.
In addition, although the Mu Clan was a hidden clan, their strength was still above the Archaic Mysteries Sect.
