The powerful light fell down, its white glow able to shine the entire Imprint Valley.
The sun itself was showing lapses. It was as if a white cloth were suddenly cut off and hung in the sky…...
Chu Mu lifted his head and looked afar. The entire Imprint valley was nearly collapsed, and things would only speed up from here on.
The path was no longer easy to walk. Occasionally, they had to walk over thin ledges with Dark Sect Heaven Slaughter. The feeling of walking the edge of death was incredibly scary. Even if they were immortal rank, they had to tiptoe around as if they were the weakest organisms alive.
Dark Sect people should know of the other spaces. The direction they were walking was clearly with intent. Dark Sect people didn’t make things difficult for Chu Mu nor scare him in any way. Other than the fact that he was surrounded and kidnapped by the six Dark Sect members, Chu Mu felt as if they were part of the same group.
Lady Si was interested in Princess Jin Rou, and was curiously asking how she became a sad little ghost.
Princess Jin Rou couldn’t tell whether Lady Si was being truly friendly or fake and so responded vaguely.
When beside Chu Mu, Princess Jin Rou often showed her more mischievous childish side. However, that was only when she was alone with Chu Mu. When talking with others, she was the mysterious ghost princess that kept to herself, avoiding most contact, and remaining relatively untalkative…..
Dark Sect’s other men, including Chu Mu, were all untalkative. So, this entire way, the only sound was the two women’s voices. They seemed polite and laughing often as if they were long lost sisters, yet in reality, they maintained their hostility.
“Master, we’re almost at the exit.” Leng Lou carefully used mental voice to communicate with Chu Mu.
Leng Lou was a Dark sect member but he wan’t really Heaven Slaughter’s subordinate. He was actually loyal to Wan Chong, so in reality, he prioritized Chu Mu’s command. If they really got into a battle, Leng Lou would stand by Chu Mu’s side no matter what.
“Where?” Chu Mu asked.
“Behind that mountain.” Leng Lou said.
Chu Mu glanced over and saw a rather well-preserved mountain.
This mountain was very normal. There was a pathway to the back of the mountain. Presumably, the exit to this space was at the end of this meandering mountain path.
Heaven Slaughter’s soul pet has spatial recovery abilities, so even some hard to cross cracks weren’t an issue for them.
Very soon, they reached the foot of the mountain. This was when the ground they had just stepped on started falling and disappeared into the darkness.
“If we were any later, the space exit itself may be devoured.” Lady Si laughed and said.
The other Dark Sect members all looked behind themselves in lingering trepidation. This new collapsed crevice was massive and spanned at least ten kilometers. Heaven Slaughter’s soul pet had a limited amount of stamina and couldn’t’ fix that much broken space.
Heaven Slaughter still walked in front, walking straight towards the meandering valley.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in the hazy little path!
The figure laid against the rocks aside as if it waited for a long time. However, how did they not discover him immediately and only noticed when they saw him in person?
Heaven Slaughter furrowed his brows and signaled for everyone to stop.
His face became grave as he stared unblinkingly at the large figure on the rock.
“Who is that!!” Lady Si yelled angrily as she was shocked.
The hazy figure moved and slowly walked out of the valley path.
An eagle-like face slowly came into focus. Sharp eyes, hook nose, pointed chin, he was completely like an eagle. A cold, arrogant, yet sharp smile accompanied his self-confidence that seemed to look down upon everything.
Being watched by these eyes caused immense discomfort to them.
Everyone in Dark Sect acted as if they faced their greatest foe, staring unwaveringly at this man.
Chu Mu’s expression was also grave. Though he couldn't feel any aura on the person, he was sure it was an expert. In fact, he was stronger than any person he’d ever met before. The arrogance in his eyes wasn’t the pride many brash soul pet trainers have. It was just another aspect of his character, one that seems to come with being in a position of authority for a long time.
What kind of person could make pride a habit?
Dark Sect’s eight people all had an aura of death around them. When Snake Dragon Faction, Wupan Navy, and Divine Sect’s people had Chu Mu surrounded, this aura of death caused them to be fearful.
However, the death aura of the eight people combined still wasn’t enough to cause any influence on the auraless man.
“Little girl, because of your old father, I’ll show you some mercy. Get lost.” The man glanced at Lady Si and said with a commanding tone.
Lady Si’s entire face turned red. She was a member of the hated and infamous Dark Sect. However, who in the entire human realm didn’t know she was the princess of Dark Sect? Even Divine Sect didn’t dare to disrespect her in any way. No one dared to speak to her like this, not even her father!
“Kill him!” Lady Si pushed down the anger in her heart and said coldly to her subordinates.
No one dared to disobey her orders. The scout that had recently returned attacked first, becoming a cold glint on his Dark Roc.
Flashing past, he flew straight towards the man.
The man didn’t even lift an eyelid. He casually waved his hand like waving a fly away.
The same time the man waved his hand, a deep blue organism jumped out from behind him.
This organism was incredibly fast. Everyone could only see a claw fly past the Dark Roc’s flight path!
“Puchi!!!!!!!”
Blood sprayed outwards. The Dark Roc and the scout’s body split in two, falling cruelly against the rock by the man, painting a pathetic blood rose on the stone surface!
Instant Kill!!
An instant kill without a single technique!!
Everyone sucked in a breath and stared in disbelief at the corpse…..
That scout wasn’t any weaker than the other Dark Sect members, yet he was instantly made into a bloody corpse. This was all too frightening!
The anger on Lady Si’s face disappeared, replaced with pure shock.
“Don’t annoy me. Whenever I get annoyed, I want to kill people, especially those who annoy me.” The man didn’t even glance at the corpse from beginning to end.
That was an immortal rank corpse. However, it seemed so insignificant when it was dead at his feet.
At this moment, Heaven Slaughter stepped forwards slightly and said in a low voice to Lady Si, “You leave.”
Lady Si was shocked. She saw Heaven Slaughter’s eyes. From those eyes, she saw a calm and concentration that she had never seen before.
“I won’t leave!” Lady Si bit her lip and said.
“He’s the Chieftain,” Heaven Slaughter said.
Lady Si went silent again, this time staring in disbelief at the eagle faced man!
Chieftain, the only chieftain in the world, the one that led the entire massive navy of Wupan!
Heaven Slaughter’s whispers were heard by Chu Mu as well, causing tidal waves in his mental state!
In front of him was the Chieftain, a leader rank expert, a true master of humanity!
This was an enemy he had never faced before. From his ability to kill that Dark Sect scout without even casting a technique was enough to show this. In fact, how long could an organism like Martial Cloud Dragon stay alive for?
“Leave.” Heaven Slaughter said to Lady Si again, this time in an almost commanding tone.
Lady Si was stared shockingly at Heaven Slaughter. He knew that if the Chieftain wanted to kill her, no one present could truly escape.
Lady Si’s lips were nearly broken. She didn’t expect to see the Navy Chieftain here. And even more damned was that this Chieftain seemed to predict that they would leave from here and waited for them.
Finally, Lady Si decided to leave.
“I will avenge you, I will!” Lady Si said sincerely.
After saying that, Lady Si rode her soul pet away quickly towards the back of the mountain.
Chieftain stood there, and didn’t stop Lady Si from leaving.
“You guys leave too.” Heaven Slaughter didn’t turn around and said apathetically to Chu Mu and his subordinates behind him.
“Master, we want to stay to fight!” The rather skinny dark sect man stood forward.
We won’t leave either.” The other people stood forward behind Heaven Slaughter.
They knew that the enemy they faced this time was unprecedentedly powerful. However, even if they could all get killed without even a technique being cast, the six of their lives was enough to buy time for Heaven Slaughter.
“Dong~~~~~~”
The Chieftain rapped his knuckle on the bloodied rock and smiled as if mocking prey. “Don’t get it wrong, I didn’t allow anyone else to leave. Someone will have to pay for my passed away subordinates.”
Heaven Slaughter’s heart sank. He originally meant for everyone to leave so maybe he could escape from the Chieftain using his Strange Mane Demon.
However, the Chieftain clearly didn’t mean to let any of them go.
“Kid, the Seven Sin fox Monument Tear is in your hands?” Chieftain’s gaze fell on Chu Mu’s body. That gaze was as if a king were looking down upon a peasant.
Chu Mu didn’t reply.
“Bring it over, including the other monument tears you have.” The Chieftain commanded lightly. In fact, almost every word he said sounded like a command. At his height, there was no point in speaking in an amiable tone.
“If we give it to you, can you let us leave?” Chu Mu pointed at Princess Jin Rou and Martial Cloud Dragon.
“No,” The Chieftain said.
Chu Mu turned to Heaven Slaughter and said, “We’re allies now.”
