Immortality: Starting with a grave, I'm invincible when burying corpses.

"Of course, I also have a small request."

Looking at the smiling Mu Ling'er in front of him, Mu An also smiled.

"What are your requirements?"

Mu Ling'er took the sword but did not speak immediately. Instead, she turned and glanced outside.

While the two were talking, Li Yin and Bai Ling were squatting outside the door, eavesdropping on their conversation.

With a "whoosh," the tightly closed door was suddenly pulled open. Mu Ling'er crossed her arms and looked outside, her cold face showing a half-smile, and her whole body emanated a chilling aura.

After being caught red-handed, the two eavesdroppers simultaneously revealed embarrassed smiles.

"Master, please let me explain. I didn't eavesdrop on purpose."

"Grandmaster, don't hit my head. I think Sister Bai and I can still try to argue our case."

Mu Ling'er said she didn't want to hear the explanations from the two mischievous children, one big and one small.

With two melodious wails, Mu Ling'er turned her head and looked at Mu An with a smile.

"I'm going to pursue my dreams and do some things I've always wanted to do... Bai Ling is my apprentice, and Li Yin is your disciple. I plan to take them both along to broaden their horizons and let them learn how our family does things..."

Hearing this, Mu An hesitated. Given her past record, he was somewhat worried that Mu Ling'er might do it again and never return.

Now that things have come to this point, he no longer wants to cause any more trouble; he just wants to spend his last moments with Mu Ling'er.

As if guessing Mu An's thoughts, Mu Ling'er raised her little hand and promised before Mu An could speak.

"Don't worry, this time it won't be like before. With Liuyun here, I'll be back soon... So during this time I'm pursuing my dream, I hope you, Da'an, can also work hard and absolutely, absolutely never give up..."

Seeing Mu Ling'er's assurance, Mu An said no more, but simply raised his hand and infused a stream of five elements spiritual power into the Liuyun sword.

Because it has been placed in the rapidly evolving Four Symbols World for many years, the flowing clouds are no longer what they used to be under the influence of the chaotic power.

The power of the world's primordial birth caused the flowing clouds to continuously evolve, transforming them towards becoming innate treasures.

As Mu An's strength continues to rise, Liu Yun now truly deserves the title of the world's number one divine sword. With Mu An's spiritual power, even if Xuan Ling Bodhisattva wields a Buddhist treasure, Liu Yun has the power to fight back, and cutting down some trash is a piece of cake.

At the door, Mu Ling'er, with a sword at her waist, held Bai Ling in one hand and Li Yin in the other, her face beaming with a smile.

Behind the table, Mu An nodded slightly to her and solemnly replied.

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back here."

……

Tianqi Domain, Huangzhou, a no-man's-land.

"Master, there seems to be a group of bandits in the distance. Should we go and inquire about their situation?"

"Buzz—"

"(⊙o⊙)!!!...That's it."

"Our grandmaster is so domineering!"

……

Bingzhou, on the banks of the Yangtze River.

"Master, there are people blocking our way on the river demanding a toll. Should we pay like everyone else, or should we take another route?"

"River bandits?"

"I think so. I've heard people say that the waterways in Bingzhou are quite chaotic."

"Buzz—"

"Gently, gently! There are other people on the river! You absolutely mustn't split the river in two!!!"

On the banks of the great river, watching the river be cut in half by the overwhelming sword energy, Bai Ling helplessly covered her eyes.

Only after the river water filled the riverbed again and all the pirates' boats were reduced to dust did Bai Ling tug at Mu Ling'er's sleeve and ask in a low voice.

"Master, shall we cross the river again?"

"Xiao Li, have you found out the truth?"

"I've investigated everything thoroughly. You can rest assured that I'm capable of handling things properly! I've thoroughly investigated the river bandits and the forces behind them."

"direction."

"Six li to the southeast, two nine-story buildings stand; ten li to the northwest, the county magistrate's residence; forty li to the northeast, a grand family compound..."

"Buzz—"

Accompanied by a deafening roar, several crimson mushroom clouds rose from different directions.

"Let's go, to the next place!"

……

"There are two bandit groups on the mountain seven miles to the southwest."

"Buzz—"

"The prefect of the prefecture, located fifty li to the east, is committing all sorts of evil deeds. He has kept countless thugs under his command, and his house is piled high with gold and silver."

"Buzz—"

"Seventy li to the due north lies the fiefdom of a prince in Dongqi. This man has seized fertile land, abducted women, and kept bandits. His crimes are so numerous that they could not be recorded on a hundred pages... However, this man is, after all, a prince of Dongqi, and he could easily provoke trouble. What do you think, Master?"

"Buzz—"

……

Qingzhou, the location of the Tianhuo Gate.

"Master, Master! You can't keep cutting like this! Along the way, you've already wiped out more than twenty sects, over seventy bandit groups, and a hundred mountain bandit strongholds. If you keep cutting like this, you'll be seen as a demon!"

At the foot of Tianhuomen Mountain, Bai Ling stared blankly, clinging to Mu Ling'er's leg and sobbing uncontrollably.

Bai Ling knew that Mu Ling'er had brought her along specifically to broaden her horizons, but she never expected that the so-called cleansing of the world would be done in this way.

How did things turn out like this when we were only supposed to kill a few demons?

He goes wherever he wants and sees whatever he doesn't like, and if he sees something he doesn't like, he'll just stab it with his sword.

Is this how justice is manifested? Isn't this just pure violence for violence?

Seeing Mu Ling'er completely ignoring her, Bai Ling felt a sharp pain in her heart.

This isn't how I taught her when I took her on as my apprentice!

In her memory, Mu Ling'er was incredibly gentle, always speaking softly to teach her. Even when she was confused, Mu Ling'er would only gently tap her head and then patiently teach her the principles.

Is this killing machine in front of her really her teacher?

What happened to the promise of using literature to convey moral principles and benefit all under heaven?!

Beside her, Li Yin first glanced at Bai Ling with sympathy, then seemed to have thought of something, and a mischievous smile appeared on her face.

Li Yin rushed up to Mu Ling'er and shouted loudly.

"Grandmaster, I have investigated thoroughly. The Heavenly Fire Sect is no good. They have been oppressing the people for years, and tens of thousands have died at their hands."

Mu Ling'er nodded slightly and swung her sword again towards the mountain where the Heavenly Fire Sect was located.

"Buzz—"

The roaring sword energy resounded throughout the heavens and earth, and the entire mountain was reduced to ruins amidst the earth-shaking tremors.

"Carry Bai Ling on your back, let's go to the next place!"

"Yes, Master! May I carry Sister Bai?"

"what ever."

"Grandmaster, what should I do if Sister Bai won't listen to me?"

"You can decide for yourself; just make sure she's sensible."

"Okay!"

"Li Yin! Put me down right now! Ugh... You traitor! What are you trying to do!"

……

The Yin-Yin Domain, the Cold and Shady Country.

"You've found out everything? The entire country is a demon kingdom?"

"Master! Master! Don't listen to this little rascal's nonsense. There's no such logic in this world. Even in the Demon Kingdom, there must be innocent people among them. We absolutely cannot..."

Bai Ling's voice stopped abruptly. Li Yin covered Bai Ling's mouth with one hand and patted her chest with the other to assure Mu Ling'er.

"There's no mistake. The Yin Yin Domain is full of demonic kingdoms. As you saw, Grandmaster, we've seen corpses everywhere we've traveled. This place is practically a living hell... Especially the Yin Han Kingdom, which belongs to the demonic sect, the Yin Yin Sect. They frequently carry out blood sacrifices on entire cities, wreaking havoc on the world. They are absolutely the worst of the worst."

"If that's the case, then let's just destroy the country."

There was another "hum" of the sword.

Excitement surged through the clouds, and a sword shadow, ten thousand feet long, descended from the heavens.

In the next instant, a blood-red pillar of light stretched across thousands of miles, turning the original location of the Demon Kingdom into a canyon, leaving only surging lava roaring on the surface.

……

Yin Yin Domain, Crimson Fire Demon Kingdom.

"Peerless Crimson Flame, enduring for eternity, unifying the nine realms!"
