Chapter 1554: Chapter 1554: Ruthless (3/4)

At this moment.

Chu Xiang slouched before the lightning cage, his face pale, panting laboriously.

He had been trying to break the cage, but no matter what he did, he couldn’t break through, and he couldn’t even find a flaw.

Qi Wu had already recovered from some of his injuries, and the terrifying wounds deep enough to see bone on his body had mostly healed.

He looked at Chu Xiang and snorted, "Stop trying. Just sit here and wait to die. Since you chose the wrong side, since you decided to offend him, you’ll have to pay a certain price."

Hearing Qi Wu’s words, who was already fearful deep inside, now shivered uncontrollably.

Looking at Chu Xiang’s demeanor.

Qi Wu sneered, "I didn’t expect the direct lineage of the ancient aristocratic families of the Cangxuan Continent to be so useless."

"It seems like the title of ’number one in the Chaos Realm of Cangxuan Continent’ will sooner or later be handed over to us, from the Demon Beast Continent."

And those three students from Cangxuan Academy were also looking at each other, the dense fog in the forest having disappeared, and the chess pieces having shattered, they could now move freely.

However, they were also somewhat nervous.

Although they had no enmity with Mu Fusheng.

They had seen the hidden strength that he possessed.

Just as these people were feeling frightened or nervous, a figure suddenly appeared among them.

Chu Xiang stared at this person, then slumped to the ground, instinctively crawling backward a few steps.

Qi Wu then grinned, "It seems the General has arrived. Now, how do you plan to handle these people, or how should I say... how do you plan to deal with me?"

Mu Fusheng first approached the three from Cangxuan Academy.

Sweat trickled down their foreheads.

Then the leader cupped his hands and bowed to Mu Fusheng, "Brother, whatever happened today, we definitely won’t reveal a thing to the outside world."

As representatives of Cangxuan Academy, they were naturally intelligent.

Seeing the sudden burst of Mu Fusheng’s hidden strength and trapping them all here.

They had already figured out his intentions.

Mu Fusheng shook his head expressionlessly, "Not related by blood or friendship, how can I trust you, and besides, you are from the Chaos Realm... As long as you don’t resist, I won’t kill you without reason, just open your sea of consciousness and let me place a restriction."

The three changed expressions, looking at each other.

As cultivators and students of a top academy, they were revered wherever they went.

How could such individuals willingly let someone place a restriction in their sea of consciousness?

Know that once a restriction is placed, it means their lives and deaths are eternally at the mercy of another’s thought!

Seeing their hesitation and reluctance.

Mu Fusheng said, "Rest assured, as long as you don’t oppose me in the future and don’t divulge today’s event, the restriction will be as if it were not there at all."

The restriction was already in place.

Could it really be as if it were not there...

"Of course, you can also choose to refuse, but for safety’s sake, I will have to take the liberty to send you into reincarnation."

"Oh no... it should be said you won’t be able to enter reincarnation."

The three from Cangxuan Academy: "..."

Qi Wu burst out laughing as well.

This is just taking a little liberty... they were taking our lives and even our souls.

In the end, the three chose to let Mu Fusheng place the restriction in their sea of consciousness.

It was better than having their souls dissipated.

Afterward.

The three hesitated for a moment, then clasped their hands towards Mu Fusheng and hurriedly left the place.

They could not bear to see Mu Fusheng, this plague of a person, any longer.

Qi Wu looked at Mu Fusheng and grinned, "Do I need to?"

Mu Fusheng nodded, "After all, we’ve just met."

Upon consideration, Qi Wu nodded, "Then, let’s do it."

He then opened his sea of consciousness.

Mu Fusheng raised an eyebrow and asked, "For someone as proud as you, how can you so easily let me place a restriction within your sea of consciousness?"

Qi Wu responded, "Of course it makes me a bit angry, but now that we are in an alliance, I must do something to earn your trust."

"Smart." Then, Mu Fusheng placed a restriction in his sea of consciousness.

He felt it for a moment and wasn’t overtaken by sensations, only feeling slightly uncomfortable inside.

Qi Wu stood up, shrugged his shoulders, and looked at Chu Xiang, who was sitting there with a dull face, and asked, "What do you plan to do with him?"

Mu Fusheng looked at Chu Xiang.

This man had always been jealous of him and had even wanted to put him to death.

There was nothing more to be said.

Mu Fusheng stepped forward and said, "I would indeed like to ask you for information about the ancient aristocratic families and forces of the Cangxuan Continent, but even if you told me, I wouldn’t easily believe you, as you know I’m naturally suspicious."

Chu Xiang, appearing to clutch at straws, regained some clarity in his gaze and crawled forward a few steps, hurriedly saying, "I can tell you! I’ll tell you everything! So please spare my life, I beg you, I won’t utter a single lie!"

But Mu Fusheng did not listen and instead grasped Chu Xiang’s head, saying under his terrified gaze, "There’s still a hint of killing intent in your eyes, but I don’t need you to tell me anymore."

With that said,

A massive wave of the power of his soul surged from Mu Fusheng’s palm into Chu Xiang’s sea of consciousness.

Chu Xiang’s body froze, and his eyes gradually became vacant.

As a vast amount of information flooded into Mu Fusheng’s sea of consciousness,

Mu Fusheng’s brow also began to furrow deeply.

The complex situation of the Cangxuan Continent was more intricate than he had imagined.

No wonder the Chaos Realm could contend with the Immortal Realm.

After the information extraction was complete,

Chu Xiang’s soul was shattered by Mu Fusheng, and his body also disappeared along with it.

Watching this scene, Qi Wu grinned and said, "Good, that’s ruthless."

Mu Fusheng helplessly responded, "I have no choice. I don’t want one of the ancient families fixating on me. In this world, you really can’t survive if you’re not ruthless."

"That’s true," nodded Qi Wu, "Alright, shall we also meet up with them?"

Thus, the two left the place.

Of course, before leaving,

Mu Fusheng used a large amount of unattributed talismans to blast the ground into rubble, leaving no clues behind before departing.

While it’s rare for people to freely enter and exit the Ascending God Ruins,

it’s better to be cautious just in case.

...

After joining up with Ye Qiubai and the others, the senior brother also had recovered.

As Mu Fusheng approached, he noticed Ye Qiubai and the others staring at him with a strange expression.

Mu Fusheng, feeling goosebumps all over, took a step back and asked, "What... What’s going on? Is there something on my face?"

After speaking, he did not forget to wipe his face.

Then, Ye Qiubai stepped forward, patted Mu Fusheng on the shoulder with an astonished expression, and stifled a laugh, "I didn’t expect Junior Brother Mu to care so much about us."
