Chapter 319 Family Affairs

Qin Mu frowned greatly. Bangongcuo was afraid of the voodoo he had concocted, so he didn't dare to attack and could only retreat. However, the witchcraft and soul worship he performed to vent his anger was indeed terrifying!

Pangong Tso was still at the Liuhe realm, but masters at the Qixing realm would die with just one bow, especially these three demon monks, whose abilities were extraordinary and they were also successful in cultivating strange beasts.

The Golden-Winged Roc is a well-known alien species in Daxu. It is extremely powerful and has a strong body. In addition, it has practiced Buddhism in the Little Leiyin Temple, so its spirit is stable.

He killed three golden-winged Rocs in succession. This magical power can indeed make even a butcher have to be on guard!

In the past, Pangong Tso still had some bearing and the demeanor of a master, but now he has been repeatedly frustrated by Qin Mu, and he has become angry and ashamed, and he has no scruples when he attacks.

This time he killed three evil monks from the Little Leiyin Temple, and next time he will probably attack the people around Qin Mu.

Who can stop him from bowing?

“But after Pangong Tso bowed to these three people, he seemed to be seriously injured. Obviously, the backlash of this magical power is extremely severe and cannot be used carelessly.”

Qin Mu's brows still did not relax. Even though the backlash was huge, this kind of magical power that could kill anyone who worshipped it was really difficult to deal with and impossible to guard against.

"Bury these three monks. Don't let their bodies be left exposed in the wilderness."

Several people buried the bodies of the three golden-winged rocs. Qin Mu bowed and sighed, "Goodbye, the three of you. I will burn a Pangong Tso to commemorate you some other day. Let's go... Wait a minute!"

Long Qilin stopped quickly, Qin Mu closed his eyes, opened them after a while, took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, boosted his vitality, and spread the paper neatly in the air.

He picked up the brush, stirred the ink, and painted in the air. Before long, he had painted a statue of a god or demon standing on an altar.

Qin Mu was about to add the last stroke, but then he stopped, took out the seal and stamped it on the painting before adding the last stroke.

“The key to the soul worship in Pangong Tso’s witchcraft should be this god and demon.”

He looked it up and down to make sure he had made no mistake. The deaf man taught him calligraphy and painting, and painting was very particular about capturing the form, meaning and spirit in an instant. Qin Mu often went out of the village with him to collect folk songs and draw various things. Although the god and demon behind Pangong Tso did not appear for a long time, he still captured the specific form and charm of the god and demon and drew it accurately.

"I don't recognize this god or demon, but there are all kinds of god and demon sculptures in Daxu. The village chief and Master Ma are knowledgeable and will probably recognize it. Since we are in Daxu, we might as well go back to the village and ask them. Even if they don't recognize it, there are still Tiansheng Sect and Yankang Kingdom, there will always be someone who recognizes it!"

Qin Mu put the painting away and thought to himself, "As long as we can recognize this god and demon, we will have the possibility of breaking Bangongcuo's witchcraft! Otherwise, the only way is to get rid of him at all costs."

At all costs, that is to say, to conquer the Golden Palace of Loulan. To conquer a holy place like the Golden Palace of Loulan, it is necessary to first conquer the grassland and destroy the countries on the grassland.

You can imagine how difficult this is.

Therefore, the last resort is to encourage the emperor to use military force on the grassland and raze the Golden Palace of Loulan when necessary. The Tiansheng Sect alone does not have the ability to do this.

Long Qilin walked forward, and Qin Mu called two white bats to treat their injuries. After their injuries were healed, Qin Mu ran up to the sky under the protection of the two white bats to observe the terrain.

After a while, Qin Mu landed and frowned slightly. He did not see Yongjiang.

If he saw the Yongjiang River, he could determine his location. If he didn't see the Yongjiang River, it would be difficult to find his exact location based on the markings on the Daxu geographical map.

They walked about a hundred miles eastward, and Qin Mu flew to a high altitude again to continue checking the geography and comparing it with the geographical map of Daxu in his memory.

After doing this several times, he finally determined their location based on the terrain of the mountains and rivers.

"We are located near the Xitian Palace, and indeed not far from the Western Land."

Qin Mu figured out the direction, breathed a sigh of relief, landed, and told Long Qilin the way. They walked eastward for another hundred miles, and Qin Mu estimated that he was almost at the location of the West Heavenly Palace marked on the Daxu map. He was looking around when he suddenly saw that the road became steeper.

A huge piece of land is slanted in the ruins, like a huge disc, much higher than the nearby mountains, as if this piece of land flew from the sky and fell into the ruins!

Long Qilin stopped and Qin Mu looked towards the huge land. He saw that the jungle here was dense, but he could also see the remains of large-scale buildings from the green shade.

Moreover, in some places where the ground is cracked, you can see the luster of metal. It seems that there are things made of metal buried deep under the ground of this land, but no one knows what they are.

There are also some towering statues that are either standing or lying down.

It took them some time to go around this piece of land, and they were stunned to see a basin in front of them with land plates scattered everywhere. Some were stuck in the ground, some were turned over to reveal a mountain-like bottom, and some were cracked into several petals. Some land plates still had complete ruins preserved. Those were the remains of a city with strange beasts active in them. The powerful strange beast lord would make heart-pounding roars from time to time, threatening any creature that dared to approach his territory.

Where these land plates are disconnected, long metal buildings are exposed, uneven in height like the pipes of a sheng.

When the wind blows through the basin, these metal buildings make a humming sound, like music, which is surprisingly nice to hear.

"How could such a great civilization fall to such an extent?"

Qin Mu looked into the distance, then looked away. This should be a safe place. The darkness was difficult to invade, so there were a lot of strange beasts. One had to be extremely careful when walking in such a place.

If we take a detour, it would probably take us an extra day to get around, so we had no choice but to keep going.

Qin Mu jumped off the back of the dragon unicorn and led the way himself. After all, he had lived in Daxu since he was a child and knew the habits of strange beasts well. If he let the dragon unicorn or the two white bats lead the way, some trouble would definitely arise.

They went deep into the basin, and suddenly Qin Mu frowned when he looked at the wheel tracks on the ground. The wheel tracks on the ground should be left by the fragrant carriage of the Zhentian Palace in the West. There were also some messy footprints, which should have been left by those powerful people who were chasing the fragrant carriage.

They had obviously broken into this place, but judging from the path they took, these people were well versed in the rules of Daxu and had not taken the wrong path.

However, the magical powers of the Zhentian Palace in the West are quite peculiar, and the scale and noise of the magical powers are astonishing. If they take action here, it will easily anger the Lord of the Monsters.

"If we follow the same path as them, we will be implicated."

Qin Mu planned to find other roads, but there was only one safe road through the basin nearby. If he wanted to take a detour, he would need to cross a large swamp.

He looked towards the swamp, and suddenly the water rolled over. A giant crocodile-man stood up, standing on the water, with smoke coming out of its nostrils, and was picking its nails as sharp as knives.

This alien beast lord is not easy to deal with. Taking a detour from here would be seeking death.

On the other side was a city ruin with numerous towering temples. Many red-headed and black-necked cranes were flying and dancing there, looking very peaceful.

However, in the city, two huge cranes, one male and one female, were refining swords. When they flapped their wings, countless sword lights filled the sky and formed a circle. Judging from the speed of the sword lights, Qin Mu felt that the two crane leaders were more dangerous than the giant crocodile leader.

“There is only one way!”

Qin Mu exhaled a breath of foul air and whispered: "We will never interfere in the family affairs of the Zhentian Palace in the West. I am not a person who likes fighting and killing, and I like to meddle in other people's affairs. I will go around it later..."

The basin was very lively. Four rhinos wearing heavy bone armor came over. They were snow-white without any other colors. Their small eyes vigilantly glanced at Qin Mu and the dragon unicorn behind Qin Mu, as well as the white bats flying around and hanging upside down on the trees.

One of the female rhinos spoke in human language and said, "This big dog is as fat as a pig, but it can still walk."

The rhino leader's face turned pale, and he quickly rolled on the ground, turning into a small giant with a rhino head and a human body. Under the bone armor was a body of flesh. He arched his two front hooves and said to Qin Mu: "Daoyou, my old woman likes to gossip, don't be offended!"

Qin Mu smiled and said, "No wonder. Fatty Long has indeed gained some weight."

The rhino leader breathed a sigh of relief and left quickly with the three female rhinos, complaining, "Can't you see? These guys are all ruthless and vicious, especially that human and the two white bats. There are countless wronged souls hanging around them."

Qin Mu was surprised. Long Qilin said, "They say that white rhinos are psychic and can see the underworld and wronged souls. They are really amazing. But they are still wrong. I am not a big dog, and I am not fat, but strong..."

Suddenly, there was a loud sound of magical powers and spiritual weapons colliding in the front. Qin Mu called back the two white bats and walked forward cautiously.

Not long after they walked out, a battlefield appeared before them. The strong men from the Zhentian Palace were besieging the fragrant carriage, and all of them were injured.

Seeing them coming, the masters of the True Heaven Palace suddenly stopped attacking and turned their heads to look at them, motionless.

"Daoyou."

A young man stepped out from the crowd and greeted Qin Mu: "Family matters."

Qin Mu returned the greeting: "I was just passing by."

The young man smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Make way for them to pass."

Qin Mu smiled and nodded to both sides, then walked over with Long Qilin and Bai Fu brothers. In front of them, the fragrant carriage had been broken, and the wheels and dome were shattered. One of the two sika deer turned into a human form and fell beside the broken carriage, while the other one showed its true form, which should be the female deer. It was lying there with wounds all over its body.

The mother and daughter they were protecting also came out of the car. The young woman was covered in blood, panting, and protecting the child behind her.

"righteous……"

The man transformed from a stag suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed the hem of Qin Mu's clothes, raised his head with difficulty, and said with a weak breath: "My hero, please..."

Qin Mu lifted up his clothes, broke free from his hands, and continued to walk forward.

When he passed by the female deer, he was slightly startled. He saw that the female deer with a small red flower on her neck was dead and had no breath.

Qin Mu retracted his gaze and continued to walk forward. Suddenly, the woman called "Nai Kui" grabbed his hand, looked at him hopefully, and said in a hoarse voice: "Take my child away, as long as she can survive..."

Qin Mu paused, and the young man from the True Heaven Palace behind him said loudly: "Daoyou, this is the family affair of our True Heaven Palace!"

Qin Mu broke free from her hand and continued to walk forward. He smiled and gestured to the True Heaven Palace masters on both sides, and led the Dragon Qilin and two white bats across the battlefield.

Long Qilin followed Qin Mu in a few steps, turned his head to look at Qin Mu's face, and said hesitantly: "Master..."

Qin Mu said expressionlessly, "It's other people's family affairs, you can't interfere..."

Long Qilin said: "It's better not to ask. The ancestor said that you are always causing trouble. It seems that you have indeed grown up."

Qin Mu was stunned: "Grown up? Has this grown up?"

"Knowing how to make choices between benefits and disadvantages means you have grown up and are very rational."

Long Qilin said: "You were very irrational in the past, hitting this and that, not afraid of offending people. The master cleaned up a lot for you in those few months."

Qin Mu was silent as he heard shouts and screams from behind.

"This is growing up... I don't want to grow up like this..."

Qin Mu sneered and continued to walk forward. Small swords flew out of the Taotie bag silently and inserted themselves around. More and more flying swords fell to the ground, forming a sword formation.

He continued to move forward, and eight thousand swords continued to move forward. The swords were on the mountains and rivers, and these swords actually formed the shape of mountains and rivers.

Ding, the last sword light fell to the ground.

Qin Mu stopped, stretched out his hand and pressed, and eight thousand swords sank into the ground. He suddenly lifted up his clothes to cover himself, and his figure disappeared!

"I don't want to grow up to be such an adult!"
