Chapter 229: Deer Man’s Guess

If that was the case, then the sword light would be something interesting.

The deer man merchant thought.

With so many orcs staring at him, he didn’t know which clan they were from.

“Sigh, what a pity. That old fox orc looked very powerful. I don’t know how he was killed by a sword.”

Pa.s.sing by a clan gathering place, a few orcs in their prime were chatting.

From their attire, they should be hunters.

They were hunters who traveled at night.

The deer man’s focus was not on these hunters, but the old fox orc who looked very powerful was killed by a sword!

Hearing this, the deer man hurriedly went forward.

“How long has that fox orc expert died?”

“It seems that he died yesterday afternoon. The blood was dry, and his body began to show signs of lividity.”

An orc turned around and replied.

He also didn’t notice that something was wrong with the deer man who had suddenly appeared.

“Where’s the carca.s.s?”

“It’s still in the forest at the back of the mountain.”

Half a day later, the deer man found the carca.s.s.

Although the old fox orc was already dead, the enormous aura from the corpse was still pressing down on him that he couldn’t breathe.

The deer man carefully moved forward.

He found that the fox orc was still wearing purple armor.

“This is…”

The deer man trembled when he saw the armor.

After being a businessman for so many years, he knew about some treasures.

Hiss.

Blood spirit armor!

It could withstand an attack from a peak middle stage true realm.

If there was a formation on it, it could still withstand an attack from a late-stage true realm.

What a rare treasure.

It also had spirituality.

He didn’t expect to see such a powerful thing here.

The deer man wanted to rip off the blood spirit armor.

Before he got close, the pressure almost pressed him down.

No wonder no one dared to touch the carca.s.s even after more than a day of death.

Even an early-stage perfected person orc like him couldn’t touch the blood spirit armor, let alone a hunter.

The fox orc expert’s pressure was much stronger when he had just died.

He turned around and stared at the blood spirit armor.

The redness in the deer man’s eyes gradually extinguished.

“This blood spirit armor couldn’t even protect its master. It’s better not to have it!”

Speaking of which, if the blood spirit armor was pierced, then how powerful was the sword light in the city!

“This old fox orc’s cultivation seemed to be at the true realm. With the addition of the blood spirit armor, aren’t the experts in the city on the same level as the elders of the roc clan?”

There were only a few elders in the roc clan.

“It’s over! The roc clan can forget about Li Mu this time. They might even get into trouble. No matter what, this expert is still hiding alone in the dark.”

Who was the most feared opponent on the continent?

It was that kind of powerful prodigal son.

If one was skillful, they would be alone. If they had enough to eat, the whole family would not be hungry.

If one offended this kind of person, they would embroil in endless troubles. Unless the other party voluntarily gave up or being killed off.

One could imagine the consequences of the roc clan for offending such a person.

Not to mention that the roc clan was currently in a war with the dragon clan. They had lost one of their elders and several other true realm experts.

If things went wrong, the roc clan would be exterminated this time!

“That would be impossible! I hope I’m overthinking.”

The roc clan was so powerful and had stood at the top of the continent for so many years. How could they be exterminated?

What kind of joke was this?

“The dragon clan is not to be trifled with. If it wasn’t for the loss of so many experts during the battle with the Xuantian Sect, the roc clan would suffer a great loss this time.”

After some a.n.a.lysis, the deer man felt that even if the roc clan was exterminated, it would still be exterminated by the dragon clan.

The only one sandwiched in the middle was him.

He could only truthfully explain his investigation and speculation to the roc clan.

Otherwise, if the roc clan encountered experts in the small city and get attacked, they would go after him.

If he told them the truth, would the roc clan become angry and eat him in one bite?

“What was the point of thinking so much? I shall go back and take a look first! My family is still in the hands of the roc clan!”

Just like that, the deer man quickly ran towards the Shangqing region.

After running for more than a month, the deer man finally reached the border of the Fenglan region.

He was only a small deer man in the perfected person stage. It was already good enough for him to leave the Fenglan region in more than a month.

He rested for a while to recover his vital essence and continued on his journey.

In the center of the ancient battlefield.

Li Mu slowly opened his eyes.

With the enhancement of the mystic method and the ability he got from signing the contract, he had raised his cultivation level to the third layer of the semi-G.o.d realm in more than four years.

He was so close to reaching the fourth layer of the semi-G.o.d realm.

If other semi-G.o.d realm warriors on the continent were to sit there like teenagers, they would have to cultivate for years to reach the third layer.

Li Mu only used four years.

If he continued to cultivate, in another hundred years, he would become the strongest warrior in the world.

It was not that he did not want to continue cultivating,

He was awakened from his cultivation.

“The sword qi on Liu Xiu was activated!”

Li Mu narrowed his eyes.

With a flash, he teleported out of the desert.

With the activation of the sword qi, Liu Xiu and the others did not suffer any substantial damage.

After returning to the small city, Li Mu circled the city twice and entered the Liu family.

“Who did it?”

His divine consciousness scanned the area, but he did not find anyone who could do it.

The fox orc’s carca.s.s outside the city had long been disposed of, and the blood spirit armor on his body had also been sold.

“No matter who did it, I’m afraid the city would be at risk again.”

Li Mu didn’t see the women immediately. He found a big tree and flew up, then lay down along a branch.

After waiting for a month, he didn’t find anything suspicious.

Li Mu was stunned!

“The person who touched Liu Xiu must have been turned into dust with one strike!”

He pointed a few beams of sword qi at the women and repaired the city wall formation.

The sword intent left on the girls was at the peak of the third layer of the semi-G.o.d realm.

Even if they were at the middle stage of the semi-G.o.d realm and were not being careful, they would be in big trouble.

The middle stage of the semi-G.o.d realm?

How could there be so many warriors at the middle stage of the semi-G.o.d realm in this world?

The roc clan did but were they willing to take action?

Now, they were fighting against the dragon clan.

The phoenix race was not interested in the girls at all.

There was not even a late-stage true realm expert in the Fenglan region.

They returned to the ancient battlefield and continued to sign up for cultivation.

At this time, the deer man had just returned to the roc clan’s nest.

After resting for half a day, he organized his thoughts.

Before he could find the roc clan, he was brought to the top of the stone pillar mountain by a great roc.

Compared to the stone forest that stood there a few years ago, the stone pillar mountain forest now looked a little spa.r.s.e.

The deer man was brought into a stone house at the peak of the mountain.

Before he entered the house, the interior was already paved.

He followed the great demon of the roc clan into the stone house while trembling.

“Greetings elder!”

The deer man did not dare to raise his head. After entering the house, he lowered his head and kowtowed.

“How did the investigation go?”

A voice that sounded like a great bell sounded from the stone house.

The deer man trembled.

“I have reached the final stage of the investigation. I don’t dare to investigate anymore.”

The deer man said truthfully.

“Oh? What do you mean? I gave you a year and a half, and you still haven’t finished your investigation? Tras.h.!.+”

The voice was deafening.

The elder was angry!

“It’s not that this lowly one didn’t put in enough effort, but there was nothing I could do.”

The deer man hurriedly kowtowed.

“Since you’re useless, I shall kill you!”

The killing intent spread out.

The deer man peed on the spot.

“Hold on, since you said that the investigation was only one step away, then how far have you gone?”

At this moment, another voice was heard from the stone house.

Hu~

The deer man let out a long breath.

He wasn’t sure if the elder wanted to kill him, or if it was a double act.

He used all his strength to control his body.

“The last step, I didn’t dare to confirm whether Li Mu was with that sword cultivator!”

“So, you found that sword cultivator?”

“Yes!”

“Fox orc, wolf orcs, canine orcs all confirmed that Li Mu was with a sword cultivator and was related to a few girls. Did you manage to see those girls?”
