Chapter 1013: Chapter 98: I Will Kill Him! (35th Update)

The Wuhua Domain was on high alert, the atmosphere tense.

Disciples were everywhere holding torches, searching in all directions. This time, they were no longer blindly hunting; they clearly knew what the person they were looking for looked like.

In one place, Mu Tianyin was hiding in the dark together with Mu Lin and Mu Shan, evading pursuit. The flames swayed as they swept past their hiding spot.

Only after the torchlight faded and darkness returned did the three hidden figures dare to move slightly.

They had fled outward in time, but they hadn’t expected to be discovered before getting very far. This sudden increase in searchers was definitely meant to catch them.

"Young Master, it seems those people have already woken up." Mu Lin voiced his guess in a low, heavy tone.

His words made Mu Tianyin’s gloomy, terrifying gaze fall onto Mu Shan.

Mu Shan’s breath hitched. He lowered his eyes in silence, avoiding Mu Tianyin’s gaze. He hadn’t expected things to turn out like this; back then he hadn’t killed those people simply because he felt it unnecessary. With the drug he’d used, at the very least they shouldn’t have woken up until half a month after the Wuhua God Emperor’s birthday celebration ended.

By then, they would have finished their business and fled far away.

But who could have predicted one accident after another, and that those people would be found by the Wuhua Domain and brought back.

And now they had even woken up!

"How could it be like this?" Mu Shan asked himself in his heart. The development of this matter had far exceeded his expectations.

"Mu Shan, I really want to kill you." Mu Tianyin said to him viciously.

Mu Shan’s heart jolted; he lowered his head even further and said in a deep voice, "Please punish me, Young Master!"

"Punish?" Mu Tianyin let out a cold laugh, his features twisting slightly as he said, "Do you think you can still escape punishment?"

His words made Mu Shan’s blood turn to ice.

Mu Tianyin shifted his gaze away and no longer paid him any attention. After a short pause, he said coldly, "I already tried just now. This space has been sealed with a Forbidden Technique by the Wuhua God Emperor; we can’t use escape-type Magic Artifacts."

"Then what do we do?" Mu Lin exclaimed in shock.

Mu Tianyin snorted coldly. "That can’t stump me. We head toward the exit. The closer we get, the weaker the Forbidden Technique’s power. As long as we reach a place where the Magic Artifact can be activated, this Wuhua Palace still won’t be able to trap me. It’s just a pity..." As he spoke, a shadow passed through his eyes.

A pity that he hadn’t achieved the purpose of coming here. Not only had he failed to find the Divine Strategy Lower Volume, he hadn’t even gotten the chance to kill that Mu Qingge whom he despised and hated so deeply!

And that woman Chu Nian...

Mu Tianyin was extremely frustrated, feeling like he’d been running into walls over and over, his mood foul to the extreme.

"Young Master, since that’s the case, let’s go over there now." Mu Lin whispered.

The gloom in Mu Tianyin’s eyes was pressed down. He stepped out from their hiding spot and headed toward the exit of the Wuhua Domain. Mu Lin and Mu Shan followed closely, keeping a sharp watch on the movements around them.

Mu Qingge had said that the reason the Mu Clan had managed to cling to life and avoid extermination by the Four Seas Divine Land up to this day meant that the greatest skill they’d honed over the last ten thousand years was escape.

Although it had been half a joke and half a taunt, it was also Mu Qingge’s assessment.

So Mu Qingge wasn’t worried in the least that Mu Tianyin would fail to reach the exit, or fail to escape this Wuhua Palace.

Sure enough, Mu Tianyin did not disappoint her.

Not long after she and Chu Nian arrived atop the city wall at the exit, her Divine Sense felt the fluctuations of Mu Tianyin’s aura.

"He’s here." A moment later, Chu Nian also said in a low voice.

Mu Qingge turned her gaze toward her. Being looked at like that by Mu Qingge, Chu Nian’s expression became somewhat unnatural as she softly explained, "I’ve met him before, I remember his aura."

Mu Qingge raised an eyebrow slightly and smiled without saying anything.

After only a few words between the two of them, Mu Tianyin’s figure appeared before them.

"Bold thieves, how dare you break into the Wuhua Domain! Men, seize them!" In front of Mu Qingge, Chu Nian revealed her valiant side.

At her command, the Wuhua Domain disciples who’d long since been lying in ambush poured out in force, surrounding Mu Tianyin and the other two, who had walked straight into the trap, so tightly that not even water could pass.

The sudden rush of people instantly put Mu Lin and Mu Shan on guard. Mu Tianyin, however, showed not the slightest surprise, as if he had long predicted that there would be a trap waiting here.

He stood below and raised his head to look up, seeing Chu Nian, and also Mu Qingge standing by Chu Nian’s side, smiling at him in an extremely annoying way.

"Surrender, or die!" Chu Nian spoke again.

In this moment, she was completely different from the amiable Princess people outside knew.

That cold, ruthless voice pulled Mu Tianyin’s thoughts back. He temporarily set Mu Qingge aside and looked toward Chu Nian. His lips curved slightly as he said slowly to her, "Princess Chu Nian, we meet again. It’s only been a few days, but Tianyin truly missed you very much! The aura on your body, your wondrousness, I will never forget for the rest of my life."

His tone was exceedingly suggestive, making people ignore the Yin Zhe in his eyes and the suppressed ferocity lurking there.

"Enough of your nonsense!" Mu Tianyin’s words made Chu Nian’s face darken. She had no time to explain to Mu Qingge; she only wanted to stop Mu Tianyin from spouting nonsense.

The Wuhua Domain disciples below also glared at Mu Tianyin in fury.

Chu Nian was the goddess in their hearts, the Princess of their Wuhua Domain—how could they allow anyone to slander her at will?

Mu Tianyin couldn’t care less about Chu Nian’s words or the murderous stares around him that looked ready to tear him apart. He gave Mu Qingge a provocative look, as if flaunting to her that the woman standing at her side had already been defiled by him.

Mu Qingge’s brows knitted slightly; she understood what was in Mu Tianyin’s eyes. He wanted to use Chu Nian to humiliate her, but he didn’t know that she had no such feelings for Chu Nian at all. Still, for a man to attack an opponent using this kind of tactic truly made her look down on him!

Seeing Mu Qingge frown, Mu Tianyin mistakenly believed he had successfully sown discord between Mu Qingge and Chu Nian, feeling he’d scored a point. A twisted smile appeared on his face, though it still couldn’t hide the hatred in his eyes.

"Men, capture them!" Chu Nian ordered coldly.

Below, the Wuhua Domain disciples who had surrounded them moved forward in unison.

Mu Shan and Mu Lin were immediately on edge. Through the gaps, they too looked up and saw Mu Qingge. Mu Qingge standing here so openly was something they could hardly have imagined.

Mu Tianyin ignored the Wuhua Domain disciples surging toward them, only staring at Mu Qingge and Chu Nian, wearing a strange smile. "Princess Chu Nian, we’ll meet again. And that man at your side—do you know who he is? I will definitely kill him."

These words made Mu Qingge’s gaze darken, while Chu Nian was filled with doubt.

"He’s going to run." Mu Qingge gave a timely warning.

Chu Nian didn’t have time to issue another order before she saw a scroll-type Magic Artifact appear in Mu Tianyin’s hand. With one sweep in front of him, it instantly wrapped all three of them inside and they disappeared from before everyone’s eyes.
