Da Xuan Martial Saint

"Who... who are you..."

Bai Shiyong's face looked somewhat pale as he stared at Chen Mu, his eyes revealing a hint of fear. Stay tuned for updates on My Virtual Library Empire

He cultivated the Heavenly Demon Sect's Demon Body and also practiced Martial Arts, having reached the Bone Tempering Realm and achieved Minor Achievement in the Demon Body, he was nearly invincible within the Bone Tempering Realm, and even a weaker practitioner of the Five Viscera Realm wouldn't be able to overpower him without moving a muscle.

Chen Mu in front of him was likely at least a high-ranking practitioner of the Six Viscera Realm.

"I only told you to answer, not to ask."

Chen Mu spoke indifferently, his body motionless, but the Power of Heaven and Earth that was suppressing Bai Shiyong suddenly surged, and in an instant, it ground his other arm into minced meat, shattering his bones completely.

Intense pain almost made Bai Shiyong scream, but he couldn't make a sound; he was completely immobilized on the ground, his forehead covered in beads of cold sweat.

"The Heavenly Demon Sect's sorcery, where did you acquire it from?"

Chen Mu spoke slowly, "My patience is limited, answer now, or you'll die."

"Don't... don't kill me..."

Bai Shiyong finally managed to speak again, his voice strained as he looked at Chen Mu with a hint of fear, saying, "I got it from my grandfather, I don't know about others, I only know my grandfather also practices it, and I've helped deliver many Blood Nourishments, whether other people practice I'm not sure, my brothers probably don't even know about this..."

"Bai Yuanqing?"

Chen Mu's gaze swept over Bai Shiyong, gauging whether he was lying.

Bai Yuanqing, the master of the Cuiyan Mountain Villa, an old cultivator over a hundred years old of the Six Viscera Realm. From Bai Shiyong's words, it can be inferred that Bai Yuanqing might have chosen to practice these evil methods to maintain his Cultivation Realm and extend his life.

Human desires are endless; those at low status desire high positions, those with low cultivation desire advanced realms, and at the dusk of life, naturally, seek to extend their lifespan. However, to Chen Mu, eating human hearts and performing demonic deeds to survive a bit longer, turning into a half-human, half-ghost entity, would eventually erode human nature, gradually making one no different from a monster; living and dead would then hold no difference, undoubtedly the path of an Evil Demon.

"Where is your grandfather, take me to him,"

Chen Mu said with a cold tone.

If there hadn't been demonic practices, his visit would have been just for the resources of Cuiyan Mountain Villa, but encountering the issue of the Sky Demon Sect's infiltration, he couldn't just ignore it.

"Yes, yes..."

Bai Shiyong hurriedly responded, "My grandfather has always been in seclusion behind, don't kill me, I'll take you there..."

Bang!

Bai Shiyong's left shoulder suddenly shattered, turning into a bloody, mangled mess.

"You have no right to bargain, either go, or die."

Chen Mu said coldly, looking at Bai Shiyong who was again in severe pain, his body violently trembling.

"Don't...I'll go..."

Bai Shiyong said with difficulty as he looked at Chen Mu.

Only then did Chen Mu turn his gaze towards the maid by the door, who had been excessively frightened by the previous events and fell into a shocked state; he slightly shook his head, then reached out and soothed her, the terrified and trembling maid then fainted.

"Let's go."

Chen Mu turned to Bai Shiyong.

Saving someone should be done thoroughly; this was Bai Shiyong's courtyard, a place for practicing sorcery, which ironically made it the safest spot at the moment. No one would dare to come over easily. Once he understood the situation of the Bai Family, he still had to deal with this villa.

Bai Shiyong shakily got up, though both of his arms had been destroyed, having Minor Achievement in the Demon Body, it wasn't a fatal injury. After being picked up by Chen Mu, with a few leaps, they disappeared into the night of Cuiyan Mountain Villa.

Soon,

Chen Mu brought Bai Shiyong to a very secluded courtyard deep in the Cuiyan Mountain Villa, a place where almost no servant could be seen, nor any maid's silhouette, even more, no lights could be found, it was pitch-dark.

Chen Mu slightly sensed around but did not feel the presence of any living beings inside that row of houses.

"Where are the people."

"Underground..."

Bai Shiyong said tremblingly, "There is an underground passage, over there, I'll take you there."

Following Bai Shiyong's guidance, Chen Mu stepped into the shadowy courtyard, heading towards the innermost side, Bai Shiyong staggered a few steps forward, saying, "The secret passageway is just ahead..."

As he spoke, he led Chen Mu into a dusty study room that appeared not to have been cleaned for a long time, then touched the lamp on the desk corner, and immediately an entrance to the underground passage appeared before them.

But,

almost at that moment, Bai Shiyong's trembling demeanor suddenly changed, his eyes revealing ferocity and resentment, he hissed, "Strike now!"

All the previous fear and pain were merely an act!

Having cultivated the Demon Body and sorcery, his human nature was naturally infiltrated by demonic nature, making him cruel and violent, yet not without cunning. Although he did not recognize Chen Mu and didn't know Chen Mu's background, he was very aware that even if Chen Mu spared his life, once the news of people in Cuiyan Mountain Villa practicing the Sky Demon Sect's evil methods leaked out, the whole villa was doomed!

Even if they had the support of the Fang Family, when it came to affairs of the Sky Demon Sect's sorcery, the Fang Family could not protect them, nor would they; this was a completely different concept compared to their usual deeds of wrongdoing and murder!

Therefore,

from the beginning, there was only one path to take, and that was to kill Chen Mu!

Almost as Bai Shiyong's roar sounded, from the passage ahead a terrifying demonic power burst forth, turning into a visible streak of blood-light, slashing towards Chen Mu.
