Chapter 105

Two days later.

A dusty horse team entered the city from the West Gate of Nanyun Prefecture City.

As soon as they entered the city, they caused pedestrians on both sides of the road to exclaim.

It was only because the horses ridden by this team were extraordinary.

Not only did they have horns on their heads, but their four hooves were also covered with fine scales, and their open mouths revealed a row of sharp teeth.

Their tall bodies also made people look on with awe.

Exotic beasts!

A full ten exotic beast mounts, under the gaze of pedestrians on the street, drove into Nanyun Prefecture City.

Half an hour later.

In an inn next to the "Hero Tower" in the inner city.

"Reporting to Fifth Master, the person who killed Young Master has been found out!"

A young man with a tall posture and a serious face stood before Fang Hongtu, cupped his hands in salute, and said, "The culprit is named Chen Mu, Second Layer Innate Realm, just made the latest issue of the 'Hidden Dragon List', ranked one hundred and seventh."

"His identity is a Hall Master of a gang in the outer city of Nanyun, and he has a cousin who possesses the 'Great Strength Martial Body' and was taken away by Di Chunlei of the Giant Spirit Sect......"

"Giant Spirit Sect?" Fang Hongtu, with a sunken face and expressionless, heard this, his eyes moved slightly, and he shouted in a low voice, "Is this matter true?"

"It has been verified!"

The young man replied respectfully, "Shi Kuangsheng of the Sword Worship Gate, Huang Keqin of the Nine Nether Sect, and Wei Dongliang of the Heavenly World Association have all seen Di Chunlei!"

"......"

Fang Hongtu was silent for a moment, then said coldly, "Does the brat surnamed Chen have any other relatives?"

"No more."

The young man replied, "Just one cousin, who just got married in the first half of the year. And the couple has already followed Di Chunlei to 'Giant God Mountain'. Chen Mu himself is also nowhere to be found......"

Slap~!

Fang Hongtu suddenly raised his hand and pressed it onto the round table beside him.

The sound wasn't very loud, but the entire round table suddenly cracked, "clattered," and split into pieces the size of a baby's palm, scattering all over the ground.

"......" The young man lowered his head.

Fang Hongtu's breathing became heavy, and killing intent erupted in his eyes.

He ran!

The brat surnamed Chen actually ran!!

Fang Yuanfu, Fang Yuanzuo, two sons, both died in Nanyun.

One of the culprits was Shi Kuangsheng of the Sword Worship Gate, and the other had just made the "Hidden Dragon List".

Fang Hongtu wished both of them were dead!

The problem was Shi Kuangsheng, who belonged to the Sword Worship Gate and had a master of the Heavenly Palace Realm behind him.

Even if Fang Hongtu hated him in his heart, he dared not find trouble with Shi Kuangsheng.

But Chen Mu was different!

He himself didn't join the "Giant Spirit Sect", just a cousin, so Fang Hongtu was not afraid at all.

As for making the "Hidden Dragon List" and being called a genius......

'So what if he's a genius!'

Killing intent surged in Fang Hongtu's eyes, and the aura of the Earth Altar Realm permeated the entire room.

Over so many years, there were not a thousand, but at least eight hundred Hidden Dragon geniuses who had died.

"Find him!"

Fang Hongtu shouted in a low voice, "Spread out and find him for me, offer a reward of ten thousand gold, and drag out the brat surnamed Chen!"

"I want him dead! Dead in a way worse than death!!"

The dividing line between Hannan Province and Shannan Province, the northern part is a large river.

Xu Family Village is located in the edge area of this river.

The village is no more than five hundred meters in a straight line from the riverbank.

The village has been established for more than two hundred years and is a bully in the local area.

The current village master of Xu Family Village is named Xu Congtang, an Innate Ninth Layer martial artist.

He has a son named Xu Yibai.

Because he admired the leader of the "Heavenly World Association," he left home five years ago and joined the Heavenly World Association.

The Heavenly World Association hasn't existed for long, but the current leader is stunningly talented, a peerless genius who only appears once every few hundred years.

Xu Yibai's goal was to become his disciple.

Xu Congtang was also happy to see this happen; if Xu Yibai could successfully become a disciple, then Xu Family Village would undoubtedly be able to rise to another level.

However......

Early this morning, bad news came.

Xu Yibai is dead!

He died at the hands of the newly promoted Hidden Dragon List genius, Chen Mu!

"Chen~ Mu~"

In the spacious room, Xu Congtang sat alone and motionless, but his bloodshot eyes told others of Xu Congtang's restlessness, grief, and killing intent!

He gritted his teeth and spat out two words, one by one, the killing intent in his eyes almost solidifying.

"Brat surnamed Chen! Daring to kill my son, I want you dead! I want you dead!!"

Hidden Dragon genius?

Geniuses can also die!!

Whoo~ Whoo~!

The night wind blew, and the silver moon hung high in the sky.

On the small mountain forest path, Chen Mu's figure flickered, one step for dozens of zhang, moving forward like teleportation.

Since leaving Nanyun Prefecture, he had been hiding during the day and traveling at night for half a month.

Traveling through the night, just a moment ago, Chen Mu crossed a river and officially stepped into Shannan Province.

For half a month, no one had hunted him down.

Or rather, no one had tracked him?

Chen Mu didn't know the situation either.

Not showing his face during the day, not entering cities, for this half month, Chen Mu had cut off all communication with the outside world.

Entering the territory of Shannan Province this time, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Relaxing.

Chen Mu found a location on a half-cliff and buried the corpse of the "Heavenly River Sword Venerable."

By the way, he circulated the "Heavenly River Manual" to sense the surroundings, but found nothing.

As expected.

For the past half month, although Chen Mu had been traveling non-stop, his sensing of the "Sword Armor" had never stopped.

The "Sword Armor" was dismantled, part by part.

As long as he found any piece, he could greatly enhance his strength!

"Run!"

"Spare my life! Spare my life~"

"Go to hell! All of you go to hell!"

"......"

Crossing a mountain peak, a burst of screams, roars, and cries suddenly came into his ears with the wind.

Chen Mu stopped his footsteps, turned slightly, and looked up at a small town at the foot of the mountain not far away.

Under the night curtain, fire was soaring in the town, and thick smoke was rolling.

The "Listen to the Wind" skill was activated, listening with the wind.

The next moment, Chen Mu tapped his toes, his figure soared into the air, and he flew toward the small town.

Whoosh~ Whoosh~

The night wind whistled.

Within a few breaths, Chen Mu arrived above the small town and saw dozens of bandits, some riding horses, some holding knives, charging back and forth in the town, with constant grim laughter.

On the only street in the center of the town, more than a dozen corpses were already lying there.

The residents fleeing everywhere were being chased and killed by the bandits as if they were playing.

In the ignited thatched cottages, the screams and wails of women kept ringing out.

"...... A bunch of animals!"

On Chen Mu's cold face, there was no fluctuation, but killing intent flashed in his eyes.

Shoo~ Shoo~ Shoo~

The palm space opened, and pieces of scrap iron instantly passed through the night, whistling toward the bandits.

"Pshhh~"

Fresh blood splattered, and a bandit who was swinging his knife to cut at a crying boy suddenly had a blood hole appear on his head, his ferocious face remaining vicious.

"Pshhh!"

Hot blood sprayed, and in a thatched cottage, a bandit who was about to take off his pants had a blood hole broken in his chest.

"Pfft~!" "Pfft~!" "Pfft~!"

Under a series of strange sounds, five bandits riding horses had their necks pierced at almost the same time, and their entire bodies either fell forward or sideways, falling off the horse's back and hitting the ground.

[Corpse discovered, do you wish to loot?]
