The First Marquis of Daxuan

Chen Beixuan and the others watched as Su Mu defeated the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect and then began to busy himself with treating Zheng Deshan. They could only wait on the sidelines, unable to get involved or know what to do.

The large, demonic cat, however, paced around, stopping every now and then to scrutinize Su Mu, its eyes filled with doubt.

"Is this really the Su Mu I know?"

It wandered over to Chen Beixuan and the others and couldn't help but speak.

"Can this be false?"

Chen Beixuan remained silent.

"No, the appearance is real, the aura is real, but this cultivation level—"

The giant cat demon shook its head and said that in all its years of life, it had never seen anyone improve their cultivation so quickly.

In just a few short years, Su Mu has already reached the Heavenly Profound Realm?

When did it become so easy to advance to the Heavenly Profound Realm?

"He's way too strong."

The giant cat monster muttered.

"Isn't it normal for him to be a little stronger?"

Chen Beixuan glanced at it and said calmly.

He has long been used to it.

Every time Su Mu makes a move, his strength is greater than the last time.

To this day, Chen Beixuan can no longer fathom just how strong Su Mu truly is.

Just as they were talking, Su Mu had already healed Zheng Deshan and appeared in front of them in a flash.

"Brother Cat, it's been a long time."

Su Mu smiled and spoke.

"It hasn't been long, just a few years."

The demonic cat's expression was somewhat complicated as it spoke, "In just a few years, you've managed to create the teleportation array. If it weren't for your teleportation array, I wouldn't be able to come to the outer realms."

"I was just lucky."

Su Mu smiled slightly and said, "I unexpectedly obtained the array diagram of the teleportation array."

"Your luck is truly unbeatable."

The giant cat monster muttered.

The teleportation array that spans two realms had been lost for many years, and even major sects like the Azure Sky Sect and Martial Sect in the Taixu Sacred Realm had no way to obtain it, yet Su Mu actually obtained it.

Can this be described simply as luck?
Even the demonic cat suspects that Su Mu is God's illegitimate son!
Can an ordinary person break through to the Heavenly Profound Realm in just a few years?
impossible!

Let alone a few years, even decades or centuries might not be enough to achieve it.

"Did you send them to find me?"

The giant cat demon remained silent for a moment before speaking.

"I was just letting them try."

Su Mu laughed and said, "It was just a try, I didn't expect them to actually find you."

Su Mu could tell that the demon cat had something to do when it left, and that what it was doing must have been extremely dangerous.

However, Su Mu didn't ask then, and he doesn't ask now.

If the big cat monster is willing to talk, he will listen.

If the demon cat is unwilling to speak, Su Mu will not force it.

A gentleman's friendship is as pure as water.

"Thanks."

"That's what the big cat monster said."

Its words of thanks were both a thank you to Su Mu for sending someone to find it, and a thank you to Su Mu for the life-saving gift he had given it years ago.

If it weren't for Su Mu, it would probably be dead by now.

However, the big cat demon didn't know how to repay such a huge favor for the time being.

"Between you and me, there is no need to be polite."

Su Mu said with a smile, "It's good that you're back. Now I can protect you in this outer realm."

Su Mu spoke casually, but everyone could feel his natural confidence.

indeed.

Even the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect were forced to retreat by you. In this outer realm, who else can be your opponent?

The giant cat demon thought to itself.

"Then I'll follow you from now on."

"The monster cat said, its eyes darting around."

"Although the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect have temporarily retreated, they probably won't let this go."

Chen Beixuan said in a deep voice, "Moreover, I've heard that the Great Xuan army is also attacking our three prefectures in Lingnan..."

After returning from the Sacred Realm of Taixu, although he was forced into the city by the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect, he also learned about the current situation of the three states of Lingnan from the people in the city.

Not long after Su Mu went to the Wilderness Continent, the army of the Great Xuan Dynasty began to put pressure on the three states of Lingnan.

The two sides have faced off many times, with each side winning and losing.

Overall, the three prefectures of Lingnan were at a disadvantage.

Therefore, most of the forces in the three states of Lingnan rushed to the front line, leaving a slight shortage of forces to guard the teleportation array.

That's why they were helpless when they faced the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect before.

Just now, they were in dire straits, barely able to save themselves. Now that the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect have been forced to retreat, Chen Beixuan naturally remembered the crisis facing the three prefectures of Lingnan.

"Don't worry about the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect, I will deal with them myself."

Su Mu pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "You should go and provide support to Da Xuan now."

"I should not act before Emperor Xuan, Yang Xiuhu, makes his move."

Chen Beixuan and the others nodded.

Soldiers against soldiers, against generals.

A powerful expert like Su Mu wouldn't make a move so casually.

If he needs to intervene even against ordinary armies, then the people of the three prefectures of Lingnan might as well find a block of tofu and smash their heads against it.

“I have three hundred Nine Yin Armor suits. When worn by a Void Returning Realm warrior, they can withstand several attacks from a Heavenly Profound Realm expert. When worn by a Body Integration Realm warrior, they can withstand attacks from a Void Returning Realm expert.”

Su Mu said in a deep voice, "Sect Master Chen, you are in charge of selecting three hundred people. We will build an army that can rival the Heavenly Strategy Army of the Great Xuan."

"Nine Yin Armor?"

Chen Beixuan and the others changed color at the same time. Could they withstand the attack of a Heavenly Profound Realm expert?

What formidable armor this is!
As expected of Su Mu, his move was astonishing.

"Lord Su, may we disciples of the Witchcraft Sect join your army?"

"Wu Chang, the leader of the Witchcraft Sect, shouted loudly."

“The Witchcraft Sect is one of our own, so of course it’s fine.”

Su Mu said slowly, "The specific standards will be determined by Sect Master Chen. As long as they pass the test, disciples of the Witchcraft Sect can also don armor and wield weapons."

"what about me?"

Zhang Zhuohua said with some envy.

He wants armor that can withstand attacks from a Heavenly Profound Realm expert!

For this armor, I would gladly charge into battle for the three prefectures of Lingnan.

"you?"

Su Mu sized up Zhang Zhuohua, shook his head, and said, "Forget about you, you're not suitable."

Zhang Zhuohua couldn't help but sigh.

Ultimately, he was still one step behind the three prefectures of Lingnan.

But it doesn't matter. As long as he stays here, sooner or later, Su Mu will trust him.

Judging from Su Mu's past actions, he would occasionally throw out weapons that could prevent death, so it was Zhang Zhuohua's turn to take his place.

"This is--"

Just as Su Mu handed three hundred pieces of Nine Yin Armor to Chen Beixuan, the demonic cat's pupils suddenly contracted, and it said in a somewhat excited tone.

"What materials did you use to forge this Nine Yin Armor?"

How is this possible?!

The giant cat demon's face showed a mixture of excitement and disbelief.

"You recognize it?"

Su Mu looked at the giant cat monster and asked.

Think about it, the giant cat demon is also a great demon who has lived for countless years.

Who knows, he might actually have some connection with Zhu Jiuyin.

That said, Su Mu is now able to see through the cultivation level of the demon cat.

An eighth-tier great demon, only one step away from the ninth tier.

Although its strength is not comparable to that of Zhu Jiuyin, it is still an outstanding existence among demons.

The demons from the outer realms, including the Demon Lord, are far less powerful than the demon cat.

Su Mu once thought that the demon cat was also a ninth-level demon, but now it seems that the demon cat is still lacking in some aspects.

Chen Beixuan and the others looked at Su Mu, then at the demonic cat, wondering what the two of them were talking about.

Chen Beixuan and the others were unaware of Zhu Jiuyin's existence.

"You really saw it? Is it still alive?"

The giant cat stared at Su Mu and asked in a deep voice.

"Alive, and living quite well."

Su Mu asked, "What is your relationship with it?"

Judging from the appearance of the demonic cat, it really knows Zhu Jiuyin, and it seems that they have a close relationship.

"Just stay alive."

The giant cat monster breathed a long sigh of relief. "My relationship with it—"

I'll tell you later.

Where is it now? Can I see it?

"I'm afraid not."

Su Mu did not press further, but shook his head and said, "The place where it is is not suitable for you to go."

However, it's not impossible for you to see it if you want.

I made a promise with it: a hundred years from now, I will help it escape its predicament, and then you will naturally be able to see it again.

"A hundred years from now?"

The giant cat demon's face showed a thoughtful expression.

"It's only a hundred years, I can wait that long."

The giant cat monster muttered to itself, "It's still alive, that matter—there's still hope—"

The demonic cat's voice was very soft. Although Su Mu vaguely heard it, he couldn't understand its meaning.

However, he already knew that the demon cat had a secret, and since the demon cat was unwilling to talk about it, he was too lazy to ask.

Anyway, it will take another hundred years for Zhu Jiuyin to escape. By then, he should have broken through to the Heavenly Fate Realm. No matter what secrets the demon cat and Zhu Jiuyin have, Su Mu should be able to help them.

Having swindled so much from Zhu Jiuyin and even tricked him, Su Mu doesn't feel guilty. However, he wouldn't refuse to help Zhu Jiuyin in the future.

Of course, there's no need to tell the monster cat these things for now.

"Nine Yin Armor..."

Chen Beixuan had already received the Nine Yin Armor, and his face showed excitement.

"I'm heading to the front lines right now. With these three hundred Nine Yin Armored Warriors, the Great Xuan Dynasty's dream of invading our three states of Lingnan is just wishful thinking!"

Chen Beixuan said in a deep voice, "Big brother, Wu You, you two come with me. This Nine Yin Armor is of utmost importance, and we absolutely cannot afford any mistakes!"

He spoke to Wu Chang and his sister, the leaders of the Witchcraft Sect.

The Wu siblings, the sect leaders of the Witchcraft Sect, nodded, their expressions both very serious.

They also knew what armor capable of withstanding attacks from a Heavenly Profound Realm expert represented.

Needless to say, they will both receive a share of this armor.

At the same time, they will become two of the three hundred sharpest knives in the three prefectures of Lingnan!

Chen Beixuan led three hundred pieces of Nine Yin Armor to the front line.

Not long after he left, a figure sped towards him from the direction of the front line.

The newcomer was none other than Gou Ye.

Upon seeing Gou Ye, a look of surprise flashed across the face of the demonic cat.

It secretly glanced at Su Mu.

Isn't this Gou Ye, the famous figure from the Taixu Sacred Realm?
Gou Ye, a descendant of the Celestial Venerable, was the first person since the beginning of time to have fallen so low as to make a living by doing dirty work for others.

However, no matter how down on his luck Gou Ye was, he was still of Heavenly Venerable blood and his own strength had reached the Heavenly Profound Realm. Even if he were placed in the Taixu Saint Realm, he would not be considered weak.

If placed in the outer realms, they would be among the most powerful figures.

How did he end up with Su Mu?

Although the demonic cat had little interaction with Gou Ye, it had a deep impression of Gou Ye's ancestor, the Heavenly Venerable of the Gou family.

Even the descendants of the Celestial Venerable have become Su Mu's lackeys.

But wasn't Gou Ye supposed to be less than three feet tall? How could he have undergone a second growth spurt?
A hint of doubt flashed in the eyes of the giant cat monster.

Gou Ye's face and the aura emanating from him clearly revealed his identity, except for his height...

The giant cat demon couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Su Mu was the same; his appearance and aura remained unchanged, but his cultivation level underwent a tremendous transformation!
This Gou Ye, his appearance, aura, and cultivation level have not changed, only his height has undergone a tremendous change!
In the years I've been away from the Outer Realms, how much has actually happened there?
While the giant cat demon was internally complaining, Gou Ye had already landed in front of Su Mu.

He glanced at the monstrous cat, then looked away.

He did not recognize the monster cat.

"Master Su!"

Gou Ye cupped his hands in greeting to Su Mu and said, "The Great Xuan Dynasty, Emperor Yang Xiuhu, has withdrawn his troops!"

On that day, Gou Ye, Dongfang Liuyun, and the Demon Lord returned to the three states of Lingnan ahead of time. As soon as they returned, they joined the war against the Great Xuan Dynasty.

Gou Ye was powerful, but the opposing army also had three of the Four Elders of Shang Mountain.

As a result, the top experts on both sides dared not make a move, and only the middle forces fought each other.

Compared to the middle forces, the three states of Lingnan were naturally no match for the Tian Ce Army of Da Xuan.

For months, the three prefectures of Lingnan have been suffering repeated defeats. If it weren't for the numerous array formations they had previously laid out, the three prefectures of Lingnan would have been completely annihilated long ago.

Just then, the army of the Great Xuan Dynasty suddenly withdrew.

Gou Ye had been secretly following them for a long time and confirmed that the Tian Ce Army had withdrawn back to Da Xuan Jing City. At this time, he received news that Su Mu had returned, so he rushed over to deliver the message immediately.

"Did Emperor Xuanzong Yang Xiuhu retreat his troops?"

After a moment's thought, Su Mu understood what Emperor Xuan Yang Xiuhu meant.

Emperor Xuan, Yang Xiuhu, probably already knew about the arrival of the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect.

"Are they trying to use me as a shield?"

Su Mu sneered inwardly.

However, Emperor Xuan, Yang Xiuhu, was indeed right.

Su Mu did indeed clash with the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect, and it was a fight to the death.

For the Ten Vajra of the Martial Sect, if they didn't kill Su Mu, they probably wouldn't have the mind to deal with Emperor Xuan, Yang Xiuhu.

After all, one of their brothers was still in Su Mu's hands.

The same applies to Sumu.

The actions of the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect have touched his sore spot, and he will not let them off the hook.

Emperor Xuan, Yang Xiuhu, suddenly withdrew his troops because he did not want the three prefectures of Lingnan to fall so quickly.

The longer the three prefectures of Lingnan and the Ten Vajra Warriors of Wuzong fought, the longer the Great Xuan Dynasty would have to accumulate strength.

This tactic of sitting on the sidelines and watching the tigers fight was also used by Su Mu back then.

Back then, when the Great Xuan Dynasty, the Zhang family, and the Demon Court were vying for power, the three prefectures of Lingnan adopted the strategy of building high walls and storing up grain.

While the three parties were locked in a life-or-death struggle, Su Mu was secretly developing his power.

By the time the Great Xuan Dynasty had defeated the other two, the three states of Lingnan had become powerful.

Now, Emperor Xuan, Yang Xiuhu, has adopted the same strategy.

He watched as the three prefectures of Lingnan and Emperor Wuzong fought to the death, while he reaped the benefits.

The same tactic was used on him, leaving Su Mu somewhat amused and exasperated.

This is a naked conspiracy.

Back then, Emperor Xuan, Yang Xiuhu, was restrained by the Zhang family and the Demon Court, and could only watch as the three states of Lingnan grew stronger.

The same applies to Su Mu now. He has to deal with the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect, so he doesn't have the extra strength to deal with Emperor Xuan, Yang Xiuhu.

Emperor Xuan, Yang Xiuhu, is now withdrawing his troops, which is exactly what he wanted.

"I was initially a little curious about what Emperor Xuan, Yang Xiuhu, was going to do, but I ran into Chen Beixuan on the way here."

Gou Ye said, "Those ten big oafs of Emperor Wuzong actually came. No wonder Emperor Xuan, Yang Xiuhu, withdrew his troops!"

Gou Ye was cunning and shrewd; he had thought of everything Su Mu had thought of.

"How about I find a way to lure those big oafs to the capital of Da Xuan?" Gou Ye suggested.

"That's too late."

Su Mu shook his head and said.

If the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect had done this from the start, there would have been a chance of success.

But now, one of the Ten Vajra of the Martial Sect has been captured alive by him, and the other nine Vajra must hate him to the bone.

Under these circumstances, it is almost impossible to shift the blame elsewhere.

That's why Su Mu said that Emperor Xuan, Yang Xiuhu, made the right bet.

"He captured a King Kong alive."

The giant cat demon spoke up from the side.

Gou Ye was taken aback. "You've captured a Vajra alive? That's troublesome."

He also felt a headache coming on.

The Ten Vajra Guardians of the Wuzong Sect were like brothers.

Back in the Taixu Sacred Realm, someone once severely injured a Vajra, and was then hunted down by the Ten Vajras for a full century, eventually dying at their hands.

In the Taixu Sacred Realm, there is a universally acknowledged principle that it is better to offend the Golden Armored General of the Cangqiong Sect than to offend the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect.

Although the Azure Sky Sect has a large number of golden-armored generals, they all fight independently.

But the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect were almost inseparable.

When dealing with one person, the Ten Vajras attack together.

When dealing with ten thousand people, the Ten Vajras also act together.

Now that Su Mu has captured one King Kong alive, the remaining nine King Kongs will probably hold onto him and refuse to let go.

"The Ten Great Warriors never rest until they die."

Gou Ye, with a thoughtful expression, said, "It seems our only option is to kill all ten of them!"

Gou Ye's face was fierce, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.

The giant cat looked at Gou Ye with some surprise.

Gou Ye, this descendant of the Celestial Venerable, is completely different from the one in the legends.

The legendary Gou Ye was extremely cunning and would stop at nothing to survive.

Given this kind of personality, he should have turned and run away upon seeing Emperor Wuzong's Ten Vajras.

Judging from Gou Ye's appearance now, he actually wants to fight to the death with the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect?

Is he really that loyal to Su Mu?

"The Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect, can you defeat them?"

The giant cat monster couldn't help but say.

"I definitely can't beat them in a head-on fight, but if I launch a sneak attack, it's not impossible for me to kill one or two of them."

Gou Ye blurted it out unconsciously.

As soon as he said it, he realized something was wrong and turned to look at the monster cat.

"Who are you? Why are you asking so many questions?"

Gou Ye asked.

He knew almost everyone in the three prefectures of Lingnan, but this was the first time he had ever seen such a powerful demon.

Where did this powerful demon, which gave him a very dangerous feeling, come from?

When did the patriarch subdue such an unfathomable demon?

Such a powerful demon is an extremely rare existence even in the Taixu Sacred Realm.

"Lord Su, it—"

Before the giant cat could answer, Gou Ye looked at Su Mu again.

"Brother Cat is a good friend."

Su Mu smiled faintly and said, "You can trust me."

The giant cat monster revealed a human-like smile.

"good friend."

The giant cat monster grinned.

The giant cat monster thought its smile was approachable, but Gou Ye felt a chill run down his spine.

"Brother Cat, haven't we met before?"

Gou Ye asked tentatively.

"I can guarantee with my integrity that it is absolutely not true."

The demonic cat said.

Personality? You're a great demon, where would you get a personality?

Gou Ye muttered to himself.

For some reason, he always felt that the big cat monster was looking at him with ill intent.

But Su Mu clearly told him that the demon cat was trustworthy.

"Gou Ye, go and find out the whereabouts of the other nine of the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect. Let me know as soon as they make any moves."

Su Mu ignored the flirtatious glances between the two and said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing Su Mu's instructions, Gou Ye's expression turned solemn, and he bowed, saying, "Yes."

After saying that, he blurred and disappeared into the ground.

Only after Gou Ye disappeared did the giant cat demon look at Su Mu.

"Do you know his background?"

The giant cat monster asked in a deep voice.

"You mean the Heavenly Venerable bloodline?"

Su Mudao.

"Since you know he is a descendant of the Celestial Venerable, why do you still dare to keep him by your side? Have you forgotten your own identity?"

The demonic cat said.

"What is my identity?"

Su Mu chuckled to himself.

"you--"

The demonic cat said, "You cultivate the Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique!"

If you cultivate the Eight or Nine Mysterious Techniques, you will never be able to coexist peacefully with the Celestial Venerable.

Gou Ye is a descendant of the Celestial Venerable, therefore he is your natural enemy.

"Brother Cat, you're wrong."

Su Mu shook his head and said, "Perhaps the Celestial Venerable will not like me, but Gou Ye, a descendant of the Celestial Venerable, is different. The Celestial Venerable of the Gou family has been dead for many years. Gou Ye has no relation to the Celestial Venerable."

"The relationships between the Celestial Venerables are complex; you're taking a gamble."

"That's what the big cat monster said."

"It's alright, I trust Gou Ye."

Su Mu said.

He didn't know what kind of harm the monster cat had suffered.

However, he could sense that the demonic cat also harbored deep hostility towards the Celestial Venerable.

This hostility is not directed at any particular deity, but at everyone connected to the deity.

They were even hostile towards Gou Ye, a descendant of the Celestial Venerable.

However, in Su Mu's view, the Celestial Venerable is the Celestial Venerable, and Gou Ye is Gou Ye.

Even if the Gou family's Heavenly Venerable were still alive, let alone the fact that he has been dead for many years, they cannot be regarded as equals.

not to mention.

In Gou Ye's eyes, he was also of the Heavenly Venerable bloodline.

"Okay, as long as you know what's going on."

Knowing Su Mu's personality, the giant cat demon stopped trying to persuade him and said...

…………

A few days flew by.

After the Tian Ce Army retreated, the three prefectures of Lingnan returned to peace.

Chen Beixuan led three hundred Nine Yin Armored Soldiers to the border and has now begun selecting men to wear them.

Dongfang Liuyun, Mo Xuesong, Zhuge Jingang, and others naturally cooperated fully.

Su Mu also brought Zheng Deshan and the captured King Kong back to Li Huo City.

The armored men that Chen Beixuan had carefully selected were immediately put to use.

They patrolled the area around Lihuo City all day long, on guard against sneak attacks from the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect.

With the Great Xuan Dynasty retreating, their only remaining enemy is the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect.

Gou Ye went to investigate the whereabouts of the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect, but returned empty-handed.

It must be said that the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect possess incredible strength and rich combat experience.

They were on a completely different level from the enemies Su Mu had faced before.

After they left that day, they disappeared without a trace, going from the light to the shadows.

They were more troublesome than any enemy Su Mu had ever encountered in his life.

Nine experts at the peak of the Heavenly Profound Realm shamelessly acted in secret.

No one knows when they will appear, or where they will appear.

The most terrifying enemy is the one that cannot be seen.

Now, the entire Lingnan region, including the three hundred selected experts wearing the Nine Yin Armor, is on high alert.

They all knew that powerful figures like the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect, if they didn't come, all was well; but once they did, it would be like a raging storm.

On the contrary, Su Mu, at the center of the storm, remained calm and composed.

On this day, he was sitting in his meditation room cultivating.

suddenly.

He opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing within them before disappearing.

All of a sudden.

A force descended from the sky.

There was a loud bang.

The walls of the quiet room collapsed and the roof crumbled.

next moment.

Su Mu had already soared into the sky.

He had just rushed out of the ruins when several beams of light shot towards him from all directions.

The Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect!

They actually broke through the heavy defenses of the three prefectures of Lingnan, appeared directly in front of Su Mu, and launched a sneak attack.

This is the strength of the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect!

In a flash, Su Mu looked around.

Fortunately, he imprisoned the captured Vajra in the Yin-Yang Cauldron.

Otherwise, the other party would probably have already been rescued by the other nine Vajra.

The Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect are all at the peak of the Heavenly Profound Realm.

Looking across the three states of Lingnan, apart from Su Mu and the demonic cat, no one else could detect the whereabouts of the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect, not even Gou Ye.

However, Su Mu and the demon cat could not guard the captured King Kong at all times.

There is a thousand days to be a thief, but there is no thousand days to guard against thieves.

It is indeed beyond the current strength of the three states of Lingnan to defend against the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect.

An army equipped with 300 Nine Yin Armored soldiers might have a chance against the Great Xuan's Tian Ce Army, but it would ultimately be insufficient against powerhouses like the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect.

Chen Beixuan and Dongfang Liuyun's cultivation levels are still too low.

hum!
It's too late, but it's soon.

Before Su Mu could finish thinking, a soft sound came from his body.

In an instant, a dark light flew out from his arms and transformed into a giant black snake a hundred feet long in the blink of an eye.

The giant serpent had horns on its head and its scales shimmered with a dark light.

It coiled its body, perfectly enveloping Su Mu's body in the middle.

Ding-ding-ding-ding.

The attacks of the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect landed squarely on the black giant snake.

Each powerful attack sent sparks flying from the scales.

The giant black serpent raised its head and exhaled, then flicked its tail.

call!
Nine of the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect were sent flying simultaneously.

"go!"

One of them shouted.

Without hesitation, the nine Vajra turned and fled, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

If it weren't for the ruins scattered everywhere and the bloodstains left by the Nine Vajra Warriors, one might even think that nothing had ever happened.

The nine Vajra warriors, having failed in their first attack, immediately fled far away; they came quickly and left even faster.

When Chen Beixuan, Dongfang Liuyun, and the others, who were wearing the Nine Yin Armor, arrived at the scene, the Nine Vajra had already disappeared.

The giant cat demon appeared silently beside Su Mu, looking at him with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.

The giant black serpent had vanished, but its terrifying aura still lingered in the air.

one strike.

The nine Vajra Warriors simultaneously coughed up blood and retreated in defeat.

Those are nine of the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect.

Nine experts at the peak of the Heavenly Profound Realm!
To be able to repel them with a single blow, that must be at least the power of the Heavenly Fate Realm.

Su Mu's own strength has not yet reached that level.

Moreover, that aura just now was all too familiar to the demonic cat.

"How exactly did Su Mu do that? Did it even give Su Mu its reverse scale?"

The giant cat demon thought to itself.

It now feels increasingly unable to understand Su Mu.

"Are they the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect?"

Chen Beixuan and the others rushed to Su Mu's side, looked around warily, and asked a question.

"They were driven back?"

Everyone was stunned when they saw the bloodstains left on the ground in the distance, and then looked at Su Mu in disbelief.

Those who had truly witnessed the strength of the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect, such as Chen Beixuan, were even more shocked.

Even though they were already used to Su Mu creating miracles, they were still shaken to their core this time.

Those are the Ten Vajras of the Martial Sect.

Previously, Su Mu's ability to capture one of them alive could be attributed to surprise.

But now, the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect are launching a sneak attack.

The nine Vajra had already learned of Su Mu's strength and had been plotting a sneak attack for many days, but instead of harming Su Mu, they were injured by him!
In contrast, these people patrolled all day long, yet nine of the Ten Vajra Warriors of the Martial Sect barged right up to Su Mu.

"I happen to have a life-saving treasure on me."

Su Mu smiled slightly and said, "They chose the wrong method. Their sneak attack just happened to activate the life-saving treasure on my body."

The reverse scale of Zhu Jiuyin contains the power of the ninth-rank great demon Zhu Jiuyin.

That's equivalent to the power of a human at the Heavenly Fate Realm.

The nine Vajra warriors ambushed him, their power enough to threaten his life, which activated the power within Zhu Jiuyin's Reverse Scale.

Speaking of which, with Zhu Jiuyin's Reverse Scale protecting him, Su Mu is least afraid of being ambushed.

The Nine Vajra Generals ambushed him, but they only brought trouble upon themselves.

"A life-saving treasure that injured nine Heavenly Profound Realm experts?"

Chen Beixuan and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.

Su Mu didn't explain much; it wasn't appropriate for too many people to know about Zhu Jiuyin's existence right now.

"The Nine Vajra are getting impatient. If there's a first time, there will be a second."

Su Mu said slowly, "Instead of passively waiting for them to attack, we should take the initiative."

"What do we do?"

Chen Beixuan, Dongfang Liuyun, and others asked.

"The Nine Great Vajras will not leave; notices will be posted to inform the world."

Su Mu said in a deep voice, "Tell them that if they want to save their brothers, I will be waiting for them at the summit of Nanshan Mountain in three months." (End of Chapter)
