Chapter 971


    <strong><em>Third Heaven Pce’s Pinch</em></strong>


    “I missed you so much, Sister Tian Ran.” Xiaoshuai attempted to jump to Tian Ran, but Vige Chief Bu held him back so as to not disturb the couple.


    “Who are you?” Tian Ran queried.


    “I’m Xiaoshuai! The oh-so handsome Xiaoshuai!” responded Xiaoshuai, reverting to his beast form before reverting to his human form.


    “Oh my god, you have a human form now? Let me have a hug.” Tian Ran wee Xiaoshuai into her embrace as a sister would.


    “Mu Yu, why did you bring a human here?” Tree Elder questioned, screening Vige Chief Bu.


    “Ah, this is the man who raised me. Grandpa, this is Tree Elder, and this is Tian Ran.”


    “Mu Yu, I thought you said he’s an elemental demon. He doesn’t look like one,” Vige Chief Bu whispered.


    “Do you need to see this to be convinced?”Vige Chief Bu ducked behind Mu Yu and readied a jade piece as he witnessed Tree Elder sprout branches from his hand.


    “Hahaha, Old Contartist, you should’ve duped Tree Elder with a lightning skill, as well,” Xiaoshuai verbalised.


    “He won’t harm us, Grandpa. Have you forgotten what I told you?”


    Though reluctant, Vige Chief Bu went through the pleasantries of a first meeting then said, “Mu Yu, you two really are the perfect couple. You have better judgement than I do.”


    Tian Ran respectfully greeted, “Hello, Vige Chief.”


    “Kidnapping even Secr World Sect’s divine maiden.” Vige Chief Bu gave Mu Yu a thumbs up, putting flushes on Tian Ran’s cheeks.


    Mu Yu approached Tree Elder to inquire, “Elder, may I ask if anything has happened beyond Moyun Mountains?”


    “Yes. My scouts informed me that there are rumours of Third Heaven Pce killing the innocent spreading like wildfire, inciting panic throughout the world. From what I was told, the reports came from Pure Peace City.”


    “Pure Peace City’s survivors, huh?”


    “Could they have spared us to suppress the scandal?” Xiaoshuai proposed.


    “How would they do that, silence all of the survivors?” Mu Yu impugned.


    To quell the scandal, the Ghost Gate, Celestial Star Sect and Secr World Sect imed Mu Yu brainwashed Secr World Sect’s divine maiden and fooled the survivors of Pure Peace City using an illusion formation whilst Third Heaven Pce hushed the survivors. Fearing for their lives, the survivors chose toy low. Nevertheless, suspicions inexorably flourished as a consequence of Third Heaven Pce hiding their appearances.


    Just as cultivators once led a witch hunt on Mu Yu, a number of them began demanding Third Heaven Pce show their real faces, not that protesting achieved anything.


    “Whatever they did and are doing, I will fight alongside Brother Mu Yu to destroy them together! They’re as toxic as Secr World Sect!” Tian Ran dered.


    Taken aback at the sight of Tian Ran flying off the handle, Mu Yu inquired, “Is your mother still trapped at Secr World Sect?”


    “She is. Yan Qingyun andpany threatened to kill her if I didn’t learn Secr World Emotion Severing Technique. That was also when I learnt Third Heaven Pce was manipting the sect’s patriarch and elders.”


    Mu Yu tenderly stroked Tian Ran’s cheek. “It’s okay. I’ll rescue your mother from their grips,” Mu Yu promised, leaving out his intent to exterminate the sect to avenge their mother and daughter pair.


    Mu Yu intended to eradicate Ghost Gate, Celestial Star Sect and Secr Sect before anything else as their termination was tantamount to chopping off three of Third Heaven Pce’s limbs. Afterwards, he would have to track down the controlled Ascension Realm elders to defuse the Divine Soul Formations.


    “Mu Yu, what is our next step?” Vige Chief Bu asked.


    “We need to escort you to Formation Sect.”


    “I want to fight evil, though,” objected Vige Chief Bu, shaking his pouch of jade pieces.


    Choosing his words carefully, Mu Yu conveyed, “Grandpa, you need to polish your skills first. We need you in the war. Winning the war is more important than winning the battle, right?”


    “Hmm, I guess you have a point. Oh, fine.”


    Mu Yu was d to find Tian Ran’s vitality jumped higher after her ordeal, though it, once again, reminded him of Ku Mu’s state.


    ***


    “Elemental demons have begun to brazenly assail human cities with great sess,” Zhuge Xiaosheng informed, meeting with Mu Yu andpany in Formation Pce.


    “Third Heaven Pce might as well have elemental demons vanquish the entire world. It’s a simple matter for them to kill cultivators. What’s the point of sneaking around?” Xiaoshuai admonished.


    Mu Yu enlightened, “If everyone dies, where are they going to source soul energy from? They only n to kill a certain number to spark conflict.”


    “How did you not figure that out, Junior Conartist? Also, you’re underestimating the adepts who don’t show themselves, but they would be strong enough to give Third Heaven Pce a run for their money. Plus, there are also immortals. They may be strong, but they aren’t invincible. If they lose the support of cultivators, they’ll walking with stones in their shoes. Furthermore, they’ll have fewerbourers,” added Vige Chief Bu.


    “What brilliant ideas do you have, then, Old Conartist?” Xiaoshuai queried. Liked it? Take a second to support Wu Jizun on Patreon!
