Chapter 49
The black shadow's words sounded very cold, but to Luo Mu, it was like the sound of nature.
His heart was beating wildly, but he did not show any flaws on his face. After bowing his head in gratitude, he crawled towards the other four.
Luo Mu knew that Zi Chen was willing to let him go because he was soft-hearted. So, he had a way to deal with soft-hearted people. He deliberately crawled very slowly, as if he was seriously injured. He also wanted to make himself look like a righteous person.
"Junior brother, wake up, junior brother."
Luo Mu shook an unconscious disciple. His voice was hoarse, and his body was covered in blood. It was a horrible sight.
The black shadow seemed to be unwilling to see this scene and left directly.
"Junior brother, junior brother!"
Luo Mu shouted softly as he looked in the direction the black shadow left. After a while, the black shadow disappeared at the end of his line of sight.
"Wake up, wake up." Luo Mu increased his strength, and his voice was much lower. His nose was no longer spurting blood.
One by one, the disciples were awakened by him.
"Luo Mu, what happened? Where are our bags?" The disciples woke up and found that their bags were gone. Their faces changed instantly.
"They were taken by the other party. Let's leave here quickly." Luo Mu clearly did not want to say more. He just wanted to leave.
"The other party, who is the other party?" A disciple asked.
"Idiot, of course it's the person who knocked you out." Luo Mu could not help but scold. But he regretted it as soon as he opened his mouth. He lowered his voice.
"It's good enough that you're still alive. I begged him not to kill you. Don't you see that even your contribution points are gone?" Luo Mu said.
"Ah, it's true. That damned thing." A disciple exclaimed.
"Shut up."
Luo Mu scolded. "You can earn more if you lose your things, but you'll die if you lose your life. Hurry up and follow me to find senior brother Xu Yan."
"Why are we going to find Xu Yan? Can he help us?"
"I'm not sure about others, but this time, he will definitely help us because I know the black shadow's identity." Luo Mu whispered.
"Who is the black shadow?" The four looked at Luo Mu.
"It's Zi Chen." Luo Mu whispered.
"What Zi Chen? That damned thing." The four men's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"I didn't expect him to become stronger again, but so what? He's still going to die. Let's go and tell Senior Brother Xu Yan that this time, Zi Chen will die without a burial place."
"It's not that easy to take our things."
Everyone gritted their teeth and quickly left with their heavily injured bodies.
The black shadow left the forest and walked for a few miles before stopping outside a valley. Pulling off the mask on his head, it was really Zi Chen.
That day, he found this black robe in Zheng Hua and the others' bags. It fit him quite well. Although black robes were only worn by core disciples in the sect, there was no such thing in the outside world.
This was Zi Chen's temporary residence. It was a very secretive place. Previously, he had been recuperating here.
During this period of time, Zi Chen had been doing this kind of shady business. Compared to working hard to find Spirit Herbs himself, stealing them was much faster.
This was also a shortcut.
"What's wrong? Looking at your appearance, you should have let Luo Mu go?" A voice sounded as Miao Kong walked out of the valley.
"We're all from the same sect. It's fine to steal their things." Zi Chen said.
"That day in the sect, they wanted to kill you."
Miao Kong shook his head and sighed, "You're too soft-hearted. Sooner or later, you'll suffer a big loss. Look at Zhang Haotian. None of the disciples who fell into his hands survived."
During this period of time, Miao Kong had been on guard. Whichever sect's disciple came would be the one to steal. If it was Xuan Martial Ancestor, then one of the two could go.
However, during this period of time, Zi Chen had always let go of many people who had offended him. As for Zhang Haotian, he was ruthless. Everyone who had offended him had died under his Tyrant Heaven Fist.
Zi Chen smiled and said, "The reason why I let them go is because I don't think they pose a threat to me. I don't necessarily have to kill them. However, if they pose a threat to me, I naturally won't let them go."
Zi Chen's eyes suddenly turned cold. A dense killing intent appeared.
"What do you mean?" Feeling the dense killing intent from Zi Chen, Miao Kong asked doubtfully.
Zhang Haotian also felt the killing intent and walked out. He was also dressed in black. His expression was unusually cold as he said coldly, "Who do you want to kill?"
"The ten disciples of the inner sect." Zi Chen said coldly.
Previously, when he was hiding in the forest, he heard the conversation of Luo Mu and the others. He knew that the ten disciples of the inner sect were still looking for him. Thus, inadvertently, Luo Mu, who had not fainted, discovered Zi Chen's token.
Luo Mu thought that he was very smart. However, he did not expect that all of this was Zi Chen's scheme.
Zi Chen explained the matter and said, "I think they will come. We might as well prepare well and give them a big gift."
"That's right. Guard here and settle it once and for all."
"It's best to settle it once and for all. It'll save us some trouble."
The two of them nodded and walked towards the deep valley.
Relying on his strength, Xu Yan only stayed in one place in the Spiritual Herbal Garden. This place used to be the territory of a Level 3 Vicious Beast. However, after Xu Yan killed it and ate it, this place became Xu Yan's territory.
The ten disciples of the inner sect stayed here. The tenth disciple's injuries had already recovered. However, he kept talking about Zhang Haotian and was determined to kill him. Losing to Zhang Haotian that day was a disgrace to the tenth disciple. He must get revenge.
If he could not win in a one on one fight, then he would gang up on him.
One day later, Luo Mu and the others hurried over.
"Senior Brother Xu Yan, Senior Brother Xu Yan!"
From afar, a few people started to shout. Luo Mu's body was covered in blood. He looked very miserable and miserable.
"Who is it?" The tenth disciple of the inner sect appeared and coldly looked forward.
"Senior Brother, it's me, Luo Mu. I hope that Senior Brother can save us and eliminate the scum of the Nimbus Martial Ancestor." Luo Mu begged. The others also begged.
"What's the matter?" The tenth disciple was a little impatient. He did not know who Luo Mu was, and was too lazy to talk to them.
"It's Zi Chen. We saw Zi Chen. Everything was robbed by him, including our Contribution Points." Luo Mu cried.
"What? Zi Chen?"
Before the tenth disciple of the inner sect could speak, a young man walked out. He had a handsome face and a slender figure, wearing a white robe. He slowly walked out from the woods, and a hint of surprise could be seen on his handsome face.
The person was Lin Yu, the second disciple of the Nimbus Martial Ancestor inner sect, only slightly weaker than Xu Yan. He was very popular in the Nimbus Martial Ancestor, and his handsome face was the target of many female cultivators.
When he first came here, he was asked by Luo Men to kill Zi Chen. After that, he was ordered by Chen Feng to kill Zi Chen.
During this period of time, he and Xu Yan had split up and led different teams. For more than two months, they still could not find Zi Chen.
"It was indeed Zi Chen." Luo Mu said, "I saw it with my own eyes."
"Tell me the details." Xu Yan also walked out from the woods.
Seeing his two senior brothers appear together, Luo Mu was a little flattered, but it could be seen how important Zi Chen was to the two of them. Even though he was flattered, Luo Mu still explained the entire matter clearly. Of course, Luo Mu would not forget the parts that needed to be exaggerated.
After a while, Zi Chen was described by Luo Mu as a despicable and shameless person who secretly attacked his own sect's disciples. Moreover, he was a traitor who had no manners at all.
"He also said that if the ten disciples of the inner sect had the guts, they could come at him. He also said that he did not put the Nimbus Martial Ancestor in his eyes. He also said that the ten disciples of the inner sect were not worthy of their reputation, and that they could not even defeat Zhang Haotian, who was at True Qi Stage Eight."
Luo Mu lowered his head and added fuel to the fire. The four people beside him did not say a word, but the angry expression on their faces was a good match for Luo Mu.
"This guy is so arrogant." Lin Yu clenched his fists, his eyes filled with killing intent.
"I'm going to kill him!" The tenth disciple of the inner sect was already furious.
Xu Yan's expression was extremely gloomy. Whether Luo Mu was telling the truth or not, Zi Chen was definitely going to die.
"Where is he?" Xu Yan asked coldly.
"In a dense forest a few dozen miles away. I think he hasn't left yet." Luo Mu said.
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and lead the way." The tenth disciple of the inner sect shouted. Then, Xu Yan called the others.
The ten disciples of the inner sect quickly gathered.
Seeing the ten people in front of him, Luo Mu felt a little dizzy and could not help but ask, "Are all the senior brothers going?"
It was no wonder that Luo Mu was shocked. He had already accurately described Zi Chen's strength, which was only at True Qi Stage Eight. In his opinion, any one or two of the ten disciples of the inner sect would be enough, but he never expected that all ten of them would go.
"Cut the crap. Let's go." The tenth disciple of the inner sect said coldly.
Luo Mu and the others did not know the truth, but the ten disciples of the inner sect had heard from the Martial Ancestor that Zi Chen was with Zhang Haotian. Moreover, Zi Chen had mastered the Thunderbolt Finger, so his combat strength was even stronger than Zhang Haotian's.
Therefore, the ten of them did not dare to be careless.
After all, Zheng Hua and the others who fought the Martial Ancestor had died at the hands of Zi Chen and Zhang Haotian.
Luo Mu nodded bitterly and led the way with the other junior brothers. The ten disciples of the inner sect followed behind.
"Big brother, is this Zi Chen really that strong?" Someone asked.
"Since he dared to offend Chen Feng, he naturally has some tricks up his sleeve. Before, I thought he was a brainless person, but now it seems that he was prepared. The Thunderbolt Finger, the most difficult battle skill to master in the Martial Ancestor, was mastered by him." Xu Yan sighed.
"What does the Thunderbolt Finger look like? We haven't seen it before."
"I haven't seen it either, but I heard that it can shoot out a thunderbolt."
"Thunderbolt? Are you kidding me?
The power of the thunderbolt is the power of the heavens. How can ordinary cultivators like us use it? "
A disciple sneered.
"Haha, what's the use of talking about it here? Once we get there, we'll naturally see it." Xu Yan smiled. He did not believe in the power of the thunderbolt in the legends.
Luo Mu was injured when he came back, but with Xu Yan and the others around, his speed was much faster. After half a day, they arrived at their destination.
"It's here. Zi Chen left from this direction." Luo Mu pointed in the direction where Zi Chen disappeared.
"Let's go!" Xu Yan said coldly.
