Chapter 1509 - 1506: Yan Xihua Is Stunned
Outside the entrance of Hehuan Residence, Mu Renqing waited there with a flushed face and ears after being expelled by Yan Xihua.
Soon, he saw Uncle Thirteen coming out with a sullen expression. He gritted his teeth and forced himself to greet him, "Uncle Thirteen, I sincerely..."
"Shut up."
Mu Qingchuan scolded sharply and strode away.
Mu Renqing followed along aggrievedly.
After walking far, Mu Qingchuan summoned a spaceship, and Mu Renqing cautiously flew aboard.
The spaceship turned into a streak of light and flew away into the distance.
"Uncle Thirteen, those two must have been hidden by her; I couldn’t have seen wrong." Once the spaceship flew away, Mu Renqing said resentfully, "That woman surely wants to swallow this Nine Nether Soul Reviving Grass."
Mu Qingchuan glanced at him indifferently and said, "Even if that’s the case, what solution do you have for the current problem?"
Mu Renqing was stunned and said unwillingly, "Just let it go like this?"
Mu Qingchuan glanced back in the direction of Hehuan Residence and said flatly, "A single Nine Nether Soul Reviving Grass isn’t worth Yan Xihua causing a fallout with the Mu Family. There must be something valuable about those two little thieves that drew Yan Xihua’s interest."
"Ah?" Mu Renqing exclaimed, his mind conjuring up the scene when Yang Fei killed Fourth Brother and Sixth Brother. He couldn’t help but resentfully say, "What Uncle Thirteen said is true. Thinking back, the reason that little thief could kill Sixth Brother and Fourth Brother was because he had particularly strange and powerful Magic Treasures."
He again narrated to Mu Qingchuan the scene when Yang Fei used the Soul Binding Rope and the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace.
Mu Qingchuan’s eyes flashed with brilliance and he nodded, "Those two Magic Treasures are definitely extraordinary, otherwise, let alone Ren Huai, even Ren Fang couldn’t be killed by this kid."
Mu Renhuai was Mu Family’s Fourth Elder in the Late Stage Core Formation, and Mu Family’s Ninth Elder was named Mu Renfang.
It is extremely difficult for cultivators of the same Realm to kill each other alone. Generally, in life-and-death struggles among cultivators above the Core Formation Stage, if their methods are comparable, it often takes several days and nights of pursuit and combat to decide the winner, and killing an opponent is even more challenging.
Unless one possesses a Special Treasure so powerful it can crush cultivators of the same Realm.
Yang Fei was able to quickly kill Mu Renhuai and then effortlessly eliminate Mu Renfang, making Mu Renqing and Mu Qingchuan both understand that he must have extraordinary Magic Treasures.
Such powerful Magic Treasures being coveted by Yan Xihua is easily understandable.
"Yet even if Yan Xihua covets the Magic Treasures on that little thief, she could have just declared it openly. There’s no need to swallow the Nine Nether Soul Reviving Grass, after all, it concerns the harmony between our two factions." Mu Qingchuan suddenly frowned again, voicing his confusion.
Mu Renqing also showed a puzzled expression; after thinking for a while, he said, "The key point is, with the capabilities of Uncle Thirteen, even you couldn’t detect those two little thieves. What kind of methods does Yan Xihua have to hide those two so well?"
Mu Qingchuan frowned slightly and pondered, "Even when using the tracking secret technique, I sensed those two little thieves inside Hehuan Residence. Yet when I actually searched, I found nothing. Yan Xihua was right there in front of me, without enough time to act. Unless those two small thieves have been completely obliterated, the trace you left on them would not vanish. Or they might be outside this space dimension or have escaped thousands of miles away beyond our tracking range."
Mu Renqing immediately shook his head, "It’s impossible to escape so far in such a short time. They can’t be out of this space dimension either."
Mu Qingchuan nodded, "That’s precisely what puzzles me."
Mu Renqing said, "What do we do next then, just let it go?"
Mu Qingchuan snorted, "The Nine Nether Soul Reviving Grass is extremely important; we must bring it back, we cannot just let this slide."
Mu Renqing’s eyes lit up, wondering, "What does Uncle Thirteen mean?"
"First leave and come back later. As long as those two little thieves are here, they can’t escape my perception."
Inside Hehuan Residence.
After Mu Qingchuan left, Yan Xihua headed straight for Huxin Pavilion.
Earlier she had sent a message to Sun Xingyu, telling Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang to hide temporarily. Her goal was to test how amazing the Space type Treasure on Yang Fei’s body was. Even if Yang Fei couldn’t escape Mu Qingchuan’s perception, she would find a way to protect Yang Fei.
At worst, she could return the Nine Nether Soul Reviving Grass to the Mu Family. As for the grudge Yang Fei held against the Mu Family, she believed that with Yang Fei’s identity as a True Disciple of the Shang Qing Sect and his enduring friendship with Shen Wanjing, plus her own protection, the Mu Family would give some respect and not pursue it further.
But she hadn’t expected Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang could vanish completely from this Plane World in an instant, showing that Yang Fei’s Space type Treasure was much stronger than she anticipated.
So when Mu Qingchuan left, Yan Xihua immediately returned to Huxin Pavilion.
Seeing Sun Xingyu sitting there alone, she swept her Divine Sense across the surroundings, finding nothing, she asked, "Did they hide well?"
Sun Xingyu nodded, "After you told me to have them hide, they left."
"How did they leave?" Yan Xihua asked.
Sun Xingyu was stunned, then described, "They just suddenly disappeared. Really, if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t believe such a thing could happen in this world. I couldn’t sense any space fluctuations; they just disappeared into thin air."
Yan Xihua praised, "Your brother’s Space type Treasure is definitely beyond any grade I imagined."
Sun Xingyu was shocked, "Is there truly such an impressive Space type Treasure?"
Yan Xihua said, "Of course there is, but in the current Cultivation World, such a level of Space type Treasure is extremely rare. With it, your brother can escape most times, meaning he stands in an invincible position."
Sun Xingyu, despite being shocked, couldn’t help but feel secretly happy for Yang Fei.
He couldn’t help but ask, "Better than my spatial traversal?"
Yan Xihua thought it over and said, "At least when he vanished before me, I had no way to intercept him, couldn’t keep him. The Space Law means you currently command, I could intercept and confine you within a certain range and prevent you from using Space Law."
Sun Xingyu had no doubts about Yan Xihua’s words, growing even more astonished, "That Magic Treasure of Yang Fei’s is really incredible."
Yan Xihua nodded and asked, "When do you expect them back?"
Sun Xingyu shook his head, "They didn’t say when leaving. But since it’s a Space type Treasure, and they are two living people, they likely can’t stay there too long?"
Yan Xihua nodded in agreement, "Right, though Space type Treasures are powerful, they are often limited and can’t house living beings for extended periods."
The two chatted while waiting for Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang to come out of the mysterious Space type Treasure.
Soon, the time for a cup of tea passed, and Yan Xihua slightly frowned.
Thirty minutes later, Yan Xihua showed a look of surprise.
An hour later, Yan Xihua couldn’t sit still.
"How can it be?" she exclaimed, "A portable Space type Treasure can’t let cultivators of this Realm stay so long. Could it be a space Exotic Treasure with a Cave Mansion World? No... that’s impossible; such treasures haven’t appeared in the Cultivation World for at least tens of thousands of years."
