"closed!"

Under the rain curtain, looking at the closed shop door, Xu Mu believed Chi Feiyan's words a little more.

These shops rarely closed before, but now they all close at the same time. Even a fool knows there is something wrong.

He originally wanted to buy a few defensive magic weapons, but now it seems that there is no chance.

"No wonder there were so few people when we first entered Fangshi! Wait a minute!"

Xu Mu suddenly realized, if it was a strange situation, could it be that no one noticed the abnormality?

There is never a shortage of smart people in this world!

Xu Muxin raised his eyebrows, and after leaving Fangshi, he walked quickly towards his home.

Da da!

The sound of subtle footsteps, mixed with the sound of falling raindrops, reached Xu Mu's ears from behind.

He is only ten steps away!

Such a slight sound, coupled with the interference of the rain, would not be felt by ordinary practitioners, but Xu Mu, whose physical skills had reached the marrow refining level, could easily distinguish it.

"Two mid-Qi training masters blessed with invisibility! What do you mean? Do you want to sap me?"

Xu Mu frowned slightly, pretending not to know, and deliberately entered a nearby uninhabited alley.

The footsteps are getting closer and closer.

Seven steps!

Five steps!

…

Three steps!

Two steps!

Clang!

Before the two of them took action, Xu Mu took action first.

The red gold sword appeared in the hand, and the fifteen sharp gold arrays were instantly activated, emitting dazzling light, causing heat waves to evaporate, and the rainwater within several feet was forcibly pushed away.

Before the two people who made the sneak attack could react, Xu Mu's figure had disappeared from the spot.

A red lightning flashed across the void!

Poof!

A headless corpse appeared out of thin air, spraying blood, stumbled for a few steps, and fell into the water with a plop.

Xu Mu held an umbrella in one hand and a long sword in the other, holding the long sword in the air.

A tall and thin man slowly appeared under his sword.

The man's cheekbones were bulging high, and his face was full of fear.

"Why are you targeting me?" Xu Mu said coldly.

"Sir, I, we are just passing by...ah!"

The sharp blade cuts into the flesh, and the hot breath makes the flesh sizzle, filling the air with the aroma of meat.

"explain!"

"I said it, I said it! We are just looking at you as a person, your cultivation level is not high, we just think it is easy to attack!" the man explained hurriedly.

"Sir, this villain is short-sighted, so just treat me like a piece of shit! I'll give you everything!"

"Aren't you afraid of the patrols if we do it during the day?"

Although the management of shantytowns is relatively loose, it is impossible for patrol teams to ignore them in broad daylight, and if they are witnessed, it will be difficult to run away.

After all, the city is so big, unless you have been hiding in the mountains and forests.

"ah?"

The man probably didn't expect Xu Mu to ask this suddenly. He was stunned for a moment and then said uncertainly: "That's because someone said that the Qinghe Sword Sect was defeated and the Soul Refining Sect was about to attack. We don't know whether it is true or not, but

The patrol team has not patrolled in the past two days, and someone has already succeeded, so we wanted to try it!"

Anyone who wants to try it will die!

The news was indeed leaked!

Xu Mu thought to himself.

I'm afraid many people in the city have received the news, but most people are still unable to fully confirm it.

Everyone is testing, just like these two robbery cultivators in front of them.

It's just a pity that the two of them hit the wall.

The strength of these two people is at the level of the Li brothers. Xu Mu could easily kill them when he was at the fourth level of Qi training, let alone now.

"Sir, please forgive me..."

Poof!

The long sword swept across!

The man's body was separated instantly!

Whether the two of them wanted to sneak attack him or they saw his red gold sword, they would definitely die.

Putting the two bodies into special storage bags, Xu Mu's figure quickly disappeared into the rain.

After returning home, he burned the body to ashes and scattered it into the sewer at the entrance of the alley. Xu Mu opened the two people's storage bags and checked.

Thirty-four low-grade spiritual stones!

Two first-level defensive magic weapons!

More than ten talismans!

A few bottles of elixirs!

Three offensive weapons!

Several magic secret books!

"Poor guy!"

They were all worthless things. Xu Mu, who had changed a lot since then, just took a look at them and put them away.

"Ying'er, let's go to Lan Daoyou's house!" Xu Mu said to Ye Yingying who was busy in the kitchen.

"Ms. sir, what's the matter?" Ye Yingying asked doubtfully.

"You'll know when you get there!"

"oh!"

Ye Yingying picked up Xiao Linger who was sleeping and followed Xu Mu out of the house.

Bang bang!

"Fellow Daoist Xu, what are you doing?"

Lan Shijin, who was wearing blue brocade clothes, looked at Xu Mu with some surprise. This was the first time she saw that Xu Mu and Ye Yingying took the initiative to come over to visit.

"Fellow Daoist Lan, can you let me go in first? I have something important to tell you!"

"good!"

Seeing that Xu Mu didn't look like he was joking, Lan Shijin opened the door and let the two of them into the house.

Compared with Xu Mu's house, Lan Shijin's residence is not only cleaner and tidier, but also has various decorations, antique and full of charm.

In the room, Leng Yuening, who was wearing white brocade clothes, was sitting on a chair, still practicing the ice cone technique. When she saw Xu Mu and Ye Yingying coming in, she immediately released the spell, her pretty face thawed, and she habitually hugged Xiao Ling'er.

At this time, Xiao Ling'er had already woken up, rubbing her drowsy eyes.

"Ling'er! Come let me give you a hug!"

Leng Yuening's voice was clear and sweet, like wind chimes surrounding her ears. It was completely different from the cold appearance, and it sounded very comfortable.

After being in contact with him for a long time, Xu Mu discovered that Leng Yuening was actually a person who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

It's just that he usually comes into contact with too few people, so in order to protect himself, he behaves coldly and arrogantly.

It's a pity that this kind of enthusiasm is usually only for Xiao Ling'er.

"Dad...Dad..."

As soon as Ye Yingying put Xiao Ling'er on the ground, she stumbled towards Xu Mu and hugged his thigh tightly.

Instead, he ignored Leng Yuening.

Ever since she was able to walk, she began to behave uncharacteristically and suddenly pestered Xu Mu. Whenever Xu Mu was free, she would hang on him and would not let go during meals.

Xu Mu, who was originally a little depressed because his daughter didn't get close to him, now doesn't know whether to cry or laugh.
