Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

Chapter 946

Same People on New Paths

They were the same pair of eyes that both of them had peered into many times before, albeit now devoid of the innocence in their younger days.

“Why?” Mu Yu questioned.

Reacting as indifferently as a stranger would, Tian Ran replied, “I don’t know you.”

“And now?” Mu Yu removed his disguise, plunging both of them into silence.

“He’s Mu Yu! He’s that traitor, Mu Yu!” someone shouted, recognising the face in the wanted posters plastered in every city.

Yan Qingyun immediately jumped over to guard Tian Ran. “You’re Mu Yu?”

“Why are you feigning ignorance?” Mu Yu asked, disregarding Yan Qingyun.

“It must be my lucky day,” Yan Qingyun cut in, peeved with Mu Yu’s attitude. “I will apprehend you on behalf of humankind!”

With a wag of her hand, Yan Qingyun summoned two individuals on either side of Mu Yu.

“Hahaha, found you, Mu Yu,” taunted one of the Ascension Realm cultivators donning black.

“Why?” Mu Yu asked again, paying Third Heaven Palace’s two henchmen no need. The last thing he was going to do was play into their provocations.

“Capture him!”

“Kill him!”

Irate with the clamouring from the cultivators standing around, Mu Yu jumped back to Chen Xi’s family, who were absolutely terrified.

“Y-you are Mu Yu?” inquired Chen Xi’s father.

“I am.”

“You are True God’s disciple?” queried Chen Xi, nervous.

“You remember our promise?” Mu Yu was as bright as always when interacting with Chen Xi.

“I do. I will protect True God, and you will protect me.”

“Exactly.”

“Pl-please be careful. We believe in True God,” conveyed Chen Xi’s mother.

“I owe your family my thanks for believing in my mentor.”

Chen Xi took out her jade piece as Mu Yu handed her parents one each. He transferred spiritual energy from his finger to the jade pieces, shattering them.

“You’re not going anywhere!” brayed Yan Qingyun, spawning a red lotus behind her in an attempt to stop Mu Yu’s teleportation formation.

Mu Yu aggressively turned around, piercing it with his bloodlust energy and then suppressing the energy in the blink of an eye.

“Their family deserves to d-”

Mu Yu willed a barrage of Shadow Splitter Swords through the cultivators’ overactive throats faster than reactions could even take place. Nobody seemingly noticed Third Heaven Palace’s duo sit back and let Mu Yu kill one after the other.

“Move, peasants!” demanded Yan Qingyun.

Cultivators stepped back as the doors to Pure Peace City closed, or rather, were locked. Third Heaven Palace’s duo cast a barrier to entrap Mu Yu.

“Why?” Mu Yu asked Tian Ran again.

“Please work with me to apprehend Mu Yu,” requested Yan Qingyun, who was Third Realm Palace’s puppet, communicating with Third Heaven Palace’s duo.

Tian Ran suddenly pulled off her veil. “Nobody moves.”

“Tian Ran, he’s now an incarnation of evil!” exclaimed Yan Qingyun.

“Elder Yan, I thought we were visiting every city so that I could judge him once we found him,” Tian Ran asserted.

“You are not his match.”

“I will and must personally bring him in!”

“Just let her. To succeed Secular World Sect, she must severe her emotional ties herself. He has nowhere to flee to,” advised one of Third Heaven Palace’s henchmen.

“As you command,” responded Yan Qingyun, initiating the retreat with everyone else.

“I want to know what happened,” Mu Yu demanded.

“You’re an emotional knot I must undo myself.”

“Yeah? And all this masquerading and recruitment scheme is to locate me? I have one last question: have you really forgotten about me?”
