Chapter 107: Bai Yu in Trouble?

Bai Yuan's whole being went wrong; his expression was a bit stiff, and being questioned by Mu Junwu's Mu spirit, he almost vomited three liters of blood.

He even began to suspect that he had been set up.

Looking at those eyes, as clear emerald as Mu Junwu's originally, Bai Yuan instantly dispelled the thought.

Mu Junwu wouldn't play such tricks on him.

And how could Mu Junwu's Mu spirit possibly do that?

Mu Shen smiled: "I've heard that human fathers love their daughters, and daughters love their fathers, so a Master can love a disciple, and a disciple can love the Master."

Bai Yuan's face darkened; in a swift backhand he struck Mu Shen's pristine forehead and said, "Don't try to fool me with sophistry!"

"Sophistry? What's that? Master, you clearly can't beat me, and you're acting like a bully!" Mu Shen covered her forehead with one hand, looped the other around Bai Yuan's wrist, and her beautiful large eyes were full of grievance.

She looked as if she were about to burst into tears.

Bai Yuan ignored her and silently flew toward the Ice‑Fire Dual Eye.

At the same time, he gave the five women, each two dragon‑scale swords.

These were meant for their self‑defense.

It was also to prevent Tang Chen from using a returning spear.

After all, having lost the Five Elements Array, they had no chance to retaliate against Tang Chen, even if he was already gravely wounded.

While hurrying along, Bai Yuan also quickly pondered in his heart the events he might encounter later.

"Tang San is now inheriting the divine throne on Sea God Island."

"Tang Chen should head straight for Sea God Island."

"Under normal circumstances, a revived Tang Chen should be certain to die, but with the Asura God covertly intervening, he's very likely to survive."

Bai Yuan's eyes flickered constantly as he analyzed the possible upcoming events and how the Asura God would deal with his disciple.

"Forget it, stop overthinking; first earn a million Teacher Merit Points and buy the final array base of the Five Elements Array."

"The divine realm will have no way to deal with me this way." Bai Yuan inhaled deeply and set the final solution.

The party flew at breakneck speed; although Mu Shen was dissatisfied, she said nothing more, and they arrived intact at a hill about five hundred meters high.

Everyone stood atop the hill; ahead was an inverted‑cone valley exuding thick, sulfur‑scented heat.

The group descended on swords.

Against the raging wind of the descent, Bai Yuan shouted cheerfully, "Bai Yu, I've come to see you; did you miss me? After sensing my aura vanish, did you start crying?"

His bright voice echoed through the valley, but below there was no response—only a patch of ruined wreckage came into view.

The hot spring in the valley remained, oval in shape, with a bizarre split of scarlet red and milky white, each occupying half, clearly distinct and not intruding.

But the flawless jade‑like lotus that should have grown in the center of the two liquids had already vanished.

Moreover, all the celestial herbs planted around the spring were destroyed, leaving a wreckage with only blood‑stained corpses scattered.

Bai Yuan's breath caught.

He hurriedly opened the attribute panel.

Seeing that the disciple count hadn't decreased, Bai Yuan breathed a sigh of relief; Bai Yu must be fine, otherwise the King of Slaughter wouldn't have rushed here.

Bai Yuan also realized that the Asura God had arranged both sides to launch a root‑and‑stalk eradication, sending the King of Slaughter to the Star Dou Great Forest because it was too dangerous.

In a place like the Ice‑Fire Dual Eye, which has no arrangements, the Asura God let the outlaws from the City of Slaughter come.

As for the rules of the City of Slaughter?

The King of Slaughter and the Asura God are the rules!

Trying to make sense of this, Bai Yuan suddenly felt some regret.

He shouldn't have worried about the battle destroying the Ice‑Fire Dual Eye and ambushed Tang Chen midway; he should have gone straight to find Bai Yu.

One must know that the City of Slaughter houses many Eight‑Ring Soul Douluo; such strong beings, when their soul power is suppressed, are killed by Tang San, but here there is no soul power suppression, so it's beyond what Bai Yu can handle now.

Bai Yuan's fists, clenched subconsciously, turned pale; his eyes narrowed, the murderous intent in them reaching its peak.

"Set the array, I'm going to refine a pill."

The current Bai Yuan, unaware of where Bai Yu had gone, planned to refine a Golden Core Pill to complete System Task 1, earn 100000 Teacher Merit Points, and then use the system to rescue Bai Yu.

When Bai Yuan raised his hand, the entire Five Elements Array manifested in his palm: the Fire Array Base, Water Array Base, Metal Array Base, and the three bases floated into the hands of the corresponding split entities of Mu Junwu.

"Master, just tell me how to solve my bodily problem!" Mu Shen, still holding Bai Yuan's hand, cooed softly.

Bai Yuan felt a surge of anger from deep within.

Regarding Mu Junwu's five‑element bodies—the Metal, Wood, and Water forms—he harbored no affection; if not for Mu Junwu's final words, he would have locked those two up and forced them to cultivate.

As for the reason, Bai Yuan knew clearly: it was because they hadn't disclosed that they would eventually merge, which was the obstacle to Mu Junwu's unification!

But when Mu Junwu finally made that choice, Master Bai Yuan could only support it; what truly enraged Bai Yuan was that Bai Yu had gotten into trouble, and Mu spirit dared to negotiate at this moment.

Indeed, Mu Shen's coquettishness was merely a pretext; she chose to speak at this critical moment, clearly bargaining.

You must know that without a wooden body entering the formation, with only a Five Elements Formation having three formation bases, Bai Yuan can only mobilize the power of Golden Core perfection, and cannot reach the half-step Nascent Soul stage.

And the decrease in mobilizable power means that Bai Yuan's success rate in refining the Golden Element Pill will decrease, which is equivalent to the plan of saving Bai Yu via morality points being affected.

This is tantamount to indirectly lowering Bai Yu's survival rate!

How could Bai Yuan not be angry?
