Chapter 164: Miscalculation
“You mean, there’s another woman apart from these three?” the leader asked, taken aback.
Unbelievable!
After searching for a long time, they had finally found the scent of the three girls a few days ago. But when they reached Changyi County, the trail disappeared.
They lost track of the three women’s scent at the Viper’s battlefield.
The smells of the vipers masked the faint scent of the girls.
Seeing that the trail was cold, several Wolf orcs waited on the path leading in and out of Changyi County, hoping to ambush the girls if they returned.
Instead of finding the three girls, however, they caught sight of a different woman.
“Yes!”
“Are you sure?”
“I’m sure!”
Sigh!
The Wolf leader let out a long sigh. He looked at the man and woman in the distance through his narrowed eyes.
“Let’s kill these people from the Horse Clan first! Then, we will embark on a new mission,” he ordered, keeping his eyes on the two figures.
“Meanwhile, keep an eye on those two people to see who they have come into contact with before. They might have a lead on the ident.i.ty of Li Mu.”
“Okay!”
“Kill the Horses! Don’t spare anyone!” the deputy werewolf leader roared and rushed towards the Horse Clan.
The other Wolf orcs circled the Horse Clan and worked together to attack them.
The people in the Horse Clan tried their best to defend themselves.
Half an hour later, almost everyone from the Horse Clan was killed.
The battle ended in just thirty minutes.
“Let’s go!”
The Wolf orcs didn’t even bother to take the spoils from the fight, and they ignored the injured people from the Horse Clan. They grabbed their belongings and chased after Li Mu.
Outside the forest, Li Mu and Liu Xiu finally reached the mainland.
When the darkness and terror disappeared, Liu Xiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She felt a sense of rea.s.surance.
Her face stopped being so pale and started to have a little color.
“Husband, my legs are very sore. Can we rest for a while?”
“Sigh! You know we’re being followed, right?” Li Mu questioned incredulously.
Whoos.h.!.+
Liu Xiu’s complexion, which had just begun to recover, suddenly turned pale again.
“Husband… Hubby…”
“Let’s go! You’re still inexperienced. It will be alright once you have more experience,” Li Mu said helplessly.
After all, the girl was still young, yet she had already been through so much.
No matter how inexperienced Tingting had been, for twenty years she had listened to Xia s.h.i.+yin’s describe how terrible the state of the world was and had mentally prepared herself.
Secondly, Tingting wasn’t as confident in her own cultivation skills.
Perhaps he had been too hard on her.
The two rested for a while, then slowly continued on with Li Mu’s encouragement.
Ooh la la!
Before they could take another step, a group of Wolf orcs emerged and surrounded them.
“Are you here to rob us?” Li Mu asked calmly.
“Huh?”
The Wolves froze for a moment.
If someone was being robbed, why did they ask for clarification so calmly?
Didn’t they understand what was going on?
This was a robbery.
Logically, the two humans should be kneeling down and begging for mercy!
The Wolf leader walked in front of the two humans.
“Which one of you is Li Mu?”
“Why are you looking for him?” Li Mu asked lightly.
It was just a Virtual Realm warrior.
How dare he try to rob him.
“Do you know Li Mu?”
“Yes! Why are you looking for him?” Li Mu asked again.
How did the werewolf know who he was?
He had never revealed his name ever since he stepped foot in Fenglan.
Most of the time, he was busy practicing and checking in. Even when he killed the Bats, he never revealed his ident.i.ty.
Everyone only knew the name Li Mu because of the Demon Tower.
Why was this Wolf orc so certain that he was the one and only Li Mu who had come out from the Land of Demon Slayers?
The Wolf leader narrowed his eyes.
Is this really Li Mu?
The other Wolves’ eyes brightened and they all became nervous.
Li Mu!
The entire continent was looking for this one human. This person possessed many things that could easily change the future of the Wolf Clan.
“Haha! Are you really a fool? The whole continent is looking for him. Would you not know why we are looking for him? If you tell me, I will let you live. If not, I will destroy your entire clan!”
“I am Li Mu. I want to know how you managed to find me.”
Li Mu frowned.
No one on this continent should know his name, other than himself.
How did the werewolves manage to find him?
He hadn’t showed up much in the past three months.
“You…”
The werewolf leader narrowed his eyes and paused for a moment.
This person was Li Mu?
They might have found the real Li Mu.
How exciting!
They couldn’t believe it!
The rumors must be true; Li Mu was a very powerful master. Why else would he remain so calm even after being surrounded.
Wait a minute!
They couldn’t just speculate his ident.i.ty. They needed to verify and confirm that this was the man they have been looking for.
“Did you build a unique house in the Land of Demon Slayers?” the leader asked.
The werewolf leader suppressed the excitement in his heart and took in a deep breath.
“Yes, that was me,” Li Mu replied.
The Wolf leader nodded. “I’m curious. How did you know that that was where one of the entrances to the Land of Demon Slayers would be?” he asked.
He was confused!
“Oh, you found the entrance,” Li Mu said with realization. “That’s my little secret.”
So, his house had been exposed.
With the house exposed, the hole in the ground would also have been exposed.
It wouldn’t be hard to deduce his ident.i.ty, since everyone else had entered the Land of Demon Slayers from the other seventeen entrances.
“You must be really rich to be able to spare so many prenatal stones,” the Wolf said cautiously.
“You haven’t answered my question yet. How did you find me?”
“It doesn’t matter!” The Wolf leader looked behind him.
The messenger Wolf should have been back by now.
If he managed to capture Li Mu, this would be a great accomplishment.
“Are you looking for your messenger? Are you wondering why he hasn’t returned? Well, he’s dead.”
“What…” The Wolf leader didn’t know if he should believe Li Mu.
He indeed had sent out a messenger.
How did this human know that?
Was this a scam?
“Don’t doubt me. I am a True Realm master,” Li Mu said.
“What!”
The Wolf leader was taken aback.
If their opponent was really in the True Realm, then they were already doomed.
A True Real master could send his divine consciousness to keep an eye on them while silently killing all the messengers they sent out.
Oh no!
They had miscalculated.
Everyone on the mainland had the impression that Li Mu was a young, inexperienced man.
They never thought that he would be so powerful.
“Now tell me how you found me!” Li Mu demanded. “Tell me and I’ll spare your corpses.”
“There are only a few True Realm masters in the human race. I have never heard of someone named Li Mu before,” the deputy wolf leader said. He did not believe what Li Mu said.
“That’s because you’re too ignorant.”
“You are still trying to lie to us? Boss, let me finish him off swiftly.”
The Wolf leader shook the sweat off his forehead and nodded.
The deputy Wolf leader rushed towards Li Mu.
Poof!
Just as he took a step forward, the Wolf’s head was instantly chopped off and rolled to the ground.
His expression was frozen in place.
“Are you… using your divine consciousness to kill people?”
“Are you doubting me? Let me show you!”
Boom!
Li Mu’s cast out his divine consciousness into the Wolve’s’ minds.
Almost immediately, dozens of Wolves fell to the ground.
“Tru…true Realm? Are you the sixth level True Realm master of the human race?”
Whoos.h.!.+
The hair on the back of the Wolf leader’s neck stood up on its ends.
Divine consciousness!
That’s right. It was divine consciousness.
The sign of a True Realm master.
He had finally found Li Mu, but he didn’t expect that he would be a True Realm master!
He wasn’t from the younger generation, like everyone had guessed, but he was a powerful master.
That’s right!
Only such a powerful person would possess so many prenatal stones and not find it a waste to use them. Only such a powerful person would know where the entrance of the Land of Demon Slayer was.
They had made a huge mistake!
Everything was wrong!
Li Mu was unfazed. “Go ahead, tell me how you found me. This isn’t just mere coincidence!”
