Chapter 1365: Return to Yinlong Mountain! Soul Search Clues!
Although the two vampires inherited the original bloodline of the Blood Clan and were very powerful, they were still no match for Nai Mucha of the ninth layer of the Fanxu Realm and were easily killed.
As for why Nai Mucha killed the vampires and Dragon Humans but chose to capture the Withered Wood Taoist alive.
It was because they seemed to have no Spiritual Wisdom, making them useless to keep around, but the Withered Wood Taoist still had consciousness, so by soul-searching them, much useful information could be retrieved.
This was also under Mu Jinyu's orders.
As the great battle concluded.
Yin Li, who was lazily sunbathing on a leaf, took back her gaze and continued basking in the sun.
In fact, she was the real trump card Mu Jinyu left behind this time. If a great enemy with the strength of the Unity Realm Stage appeared, even Nai Mucha would not be a match, then Yin Li would make a move, definitely able to withstand.
However... the joint attack from the Withered Tree Quest for Spring and Paradise Lost was not so powerful, not worthy of her action.
As the battle ended, Mu Hongchen closed the sword formation, allowing nine sharp swords to return to the nine mountain peaks, then ordered people to clean up the battlefield.
Yu Shenfeng did not bother with these trivial matters. After the two vampires were instantly killed by Nai Mucha, he thanked Nai Mucha and took out a Communication Talisman to inform Mu Jinyu of the situation here.
...
Kunlun Ruins.
Since the location of the teleportation light screen was in the Yan Kingdom, and the Heavenly Sword Faction was within the Yan Kingdom's borders, Mu Jinyu couldn't ignore the Heavenly Sword Faction after returning to the Yan Kingdom but first went to find his master.
So, after entering Kunlun Ruins, Mu Jinyu brought his mother and wives to visit Heavenly Sword Faction.
After chatting with the Sect Leader and the others for half a day, Mu Jinyu was about to say goodbye to the Sect Leader and set off to find Mu Shao'ai.
Then he received Yu Shenfeng's communication.
"Hmm? So fast?"
Mu Jinyu raised an eyebrow, somewhat amusedly muttering to himself.
He suspected that after leaving Huaxia with Gu Xiyan and the others, Omniscient, Withered Tree Quest for Spring, Paradise Lost, Fallen Splendor, and even Brilliant Divine Authority might take action.
But he expected it to be at least ten days to half a month, right?
Unexpectedly, just after half a day, the Withered Wood Taoist and Amalia had already learned about his departure and rushed impatiently into Yinlong Mountain to seek revenge.
Fortunately, he left Yin Li and Nai Mucha behind.
Otherwise, with just Yu Shenfeng's master-disciple pair handling the joint attack of more than a dozen mid-stage Fanxu Realm experts, the pressure would indeed be very high.
"What happened?"
Su Zijin saw Mu Jinyu's strange expression and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Nothing, someone took advantage of our absence, trying to raid the Dragon King Hall." Mu Jinyu explained to Su Zijin with a slight smile.
"What? What's the situation now?"
Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, not only Su Zijin but all the women were nervous and quickly inquired.
Mu Jinyu said, "It's nothing. Didn't I leave Nai Mucha and the Divine Silkworm Princess in Yinlong Mountain? With them holding the fort, who could raid us during our absence?!"
"That's good. Perhaps we should go back and check on things now?"
Su Zijin relaxed a bit but was worried that contacting Mu Jinyu's Yu Shenfeng or Mu Hongchen might affect their vacation, so even if something happened, she seemed concerned and said.
"Heading back now?"
Mu Jinyu pondered, his eyes slightly downcast.
Originally, upon receiving Yu Shenfeng's communication and realizing the Dragon King Hall was safe, he hadn't planned to return immediately but to continue seeking Mu Shao'ai for a Heaven-reaching Treasured Sword Soldier or casting materials for him to refine himself.
Then he planned to travel to the Northern Plains and check on the Hanchi Tribe, seeing if any last remnants of the Blood Witch Clan came out to cause trouble.
But if Su Zijin wanted to return, clearly he couldn't hurry to many places.
Then back, and after dealing with those stubborn organizations, he would bring them over again.
"How about letting Xiyan and the others accompany me back while you handle your important matters here..."
Su Zijin thought Mu Jinyu was still worried about the Heaven-reaching Treasured Sword Soldier for Jian Ruyan, so she suggested.
"No need, let's go back first, and after dealing with the troublemakers, we can return."
Mu Jinyu returned from his thoughts, apologizing to Jian Ruyan with a smile and spoke softly.
Jian Ruyan remained calm, nodded without any objections.
Thereafter, Mu Jinyu bade farewell to the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Faction and then, along with the women, crossed the teleportation light screen back to Kunlun Mountain.
Returning to Kunlun Mountain, Mu Jinyu did not linger but directly took the women via spatial shifting, promptly returning to Yinlong Mountain.
"How is it, Hongchen, are you alright? Is everyone okay?"
Upon returning to Yinlong Mountain, Su Zijin asked Mu Hongchen concernedly.
Mu Hongchen's face appeared somewhat pale due to his slightly weaker power and exhaustion from maneuvering the Nine Heavens Mystical Murder Sword Formation Map against the Dragon Humans.
Feeling Su Zijin's concern, Mu Hongchen felt warm, shook his head, and said, "No worries, sis, everyone is fine, everything went smoothly..."
"Hmm." Mu Jinyu softly answered, then released Life Source Energy to help Mu Hongchen recuperate.
Immediately, Mu Hongchen's slightly pale face turned rosy.
Mu Jinyu said, "Aunt Mu, don't overextend yourself next time; just let Nai Mucha handle it."
"Got it." Mu Hongchen nodded, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Later, Mu Jinyu chatted with Mu Hongchen about the events and grasped the general situation.
"Vampires with black-blue bat wings? Dragon Human, devoid of Spiritual Wisdom..."
Mu Jinyu pondered slightly, considering whether Fallen Splendor's vampires would follow the orders of Withered Tree Quest for Spring.
"Let's go, look at those captured alive."
Mu Jinyu waved and led everyone out of the room to the prison holding the Withered Wood Taoist and Amalia.
"Dragon Master."
Yu Shenfeng was guarding the prison and, surprised at Mu Jinyu's quick return, respectfully inquired.
"Hmm, I'm here to check these people, and once the soul-search is done, I'll leave them to you for revenge."
Mu Jinyu nodded to Yu Shenfeng and focused on the four bound people in the dungeon.
He raised his hand, and the four half-reclined in the dungeon lifted into the air, passed through the bars, and landed outside on the slate.
Afterward, Mu Jinyu placed his hand on the Withered Wood Taoist's head, his Divine Sense surged into the opponent's Sea of Consciousness, beginning the soul search.
This was why Yu Shenfeng left the Withered Wood Taoist and Amalia alive - for Mu Jinyu to soul-search them!
Mu Jinyu's Divine Sense invaded the Withered Wood Taoist's Sea of Consciousness, quickly discovering the untouched bases of the Withered Tree Quest for Spring in various places, and the crucial contact with a blurred figure.
"Hmm? The new Observer of Omniscient, Bai Xiaosheng?!"
Mu Jinyu discovered Bai Xiaosheng's contact with the Withered Wood Taoist and subsequently saw Bai Xiaosheng giving the Withered Wood Taoist the Blood Clan genes of the Curse World Master and their recent plan to besiege the Dragon King Hall.
"This guy is indeed trickier than Li Yaotong..."
Mu Jinyu comprehended the Withered Wood Taoist's experiences, muttering softly.
