Hu Lie said gravely, "Although there are assassin organizations in the Heavenly Realm, the rule of assassins is that if they fail in one hit, they flee a thousand miles away and do not strike a second ti. Therefore, this person has broken the assassin's rule; he must be an assassin, and there's no doubt about it. Thus, there must be sothing fishy going on. The order he received must have been to kill you at any cost."
Yue Qingcheng said, "The person who hates Master Chu this much must be from the Zhuge Family."
Hu Lie shook his head, "No, the major clans in the Heavenly Realm have an unwritten rule, which is, private grudges are settled privately. Family enemies are pursued by the entire clan. For a major clan like the Zhuge Family, no matter how much they hate Brother Xu, it's unlikely that they would hire an assassin. By doing so, it would an breaking the rules."
Yue Qingcheng thought for a mont, "That's true. If they can hire assassins to kill people, others can naturally hire assassins to target their family mbers as well."
"But besides the Zhuge Family, which other clan could have such a motive?" Hu Lie scratched his head, then looked at Chu Mo.
Chu Mo thought for a mont, then suddenly said, "Do you rember when that assassin fled, he threw out a straw man as a substitute?"
"I rember, it should be a very powerful secret technique," Hu Lie said.
Chu Mo looked at Hu Lie, "When I was in the Immortal Realm, there was a powerful being who wanted to kill . After his failure, the aura on his body surged drastically, almost reaching the realm of a great immortal. He nearly destabilized the entire void."
Hu Lie interjected in shock, "What was he trying to do? Wasn't he afraid of taking on a big cause and effect?"
Chu Mo said, "I chopped off his head with a single slash."
Even knowing that nothing had happened in the Immortal Realm and that Chu Mo was safe, Hu Lie and Yue Qingcheng still felt a sense of relief.
The Immortal Realm is no Heavenly Realm; had a great immortal self-destructed there, it would have been a cataclysmic disaster.
However, Hu Lie and Yue Qingcheng were both keenly aware of the key point.
Hu Lie looked at Chu Mo, "A straw man?"
Chu Mo nodded, "Yes, a straw man!"
Hu Lie pondered, "Those who master this secret technique must be few. Asking around should reveal the results."
"First there was the straw man puppet sent to the Immortal Realm to harm you, followed by an assassin stubbornly lying in wait on the heavenly road in the Heavenly Realm trying to kill you... This thod is really fierce," Yue Qingcheng said.
Hu Lie smiled, "I guess, the real intensity... is still to co."
Hu Lie's words turned out to be prophetic.
A few days later, the three encountered so obstructers.
These people were strangers, and Hu Lie didn't recognize them, but they recognized Chu Mo.
At this ti, Chu Mo had regained his original appearance. He had not used the Versatile Technique.
"Chu Mo, right? Known as the terminator of young lords? Hehe, luckily I'm not a young lord, so I believe you can't end ," a thirty-sothing-year-old man with long hair and carefree deanor stood there. He squinted at Chu Mo, with four elders, and two bright-eyed and white-toothed young won behind him.
A chill ran through Chu Mo's heart; he gestured to stop Hu Lie and Yue Qingcheng, who wanted to say sothing.
Emperor!
One of those four elders was actually an elder of the Emperor Realm!
Emperor Realm Level One might sound sowhat modest, especially compared to those cultivators at the fourth, fifth, or even higher levels of the Emperor Realm. Indeed, a Level One Emperor Realm seed rather weak.
But that was relative and also depended on who you compared them to!
An Emperor Realm cultivator at the primary level, when facing a high-tier Emperor Realm, naturally had only one option: to kneel. But if facing a true immortal realm cultivator... that was practically a godlike existence!
Not to ntion the current Chu Mo, who could at most maintain an undefeated stance against a young supre being at the peak of the true immortal realm. For a cultivator in the Heavenly Immortal Realm, this was already an incredible miracle! But if he were to face a cultivator from the Emperor Realm, no matter how invincible Chu Mo felt his heart of the path was, or how confident he was, he wouldn't think he could easily defeat an Emperor!
Not to ntion, there wasn't just one Emperor here!
The other three elders, all were powerful cultivators at the peak of the true immortal realm.
The long-haired young man, though he claid he wasn't a young supre being, was at the peak of the true immortal realm and also a Heavenly Genius of the blue-blood lineage. Truly a young powerhouse!
The two won, although they hadn't reached the true immortal realm, were both at the peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm and also possessed the green-blood lineage, which could be considered young geniuses.
Such a combination, if they said it wasn't a young supre being's group, no one would believe it.
The Azure Sky Mirror had recovered its nurous abilities after Chu Mo woke up this ti. Of course, these abilities, for Chu Mo now, were more... subsidiary. And Chu Mo had long since ceased to overly rely on the power of the Azure Sky Mirror.
The reason he had even noticed the assassin that Qi Bo hadn't fully perceived before, pinpointed him accurately, and then concocted a heaven-shocking strike that severely injured the assassin, was all thanks to the Azure Sky Mirror's reminder!
Now upon seeing this group, Chu Mo didn't even wait to communicate with the Azure Sky Mirror before it had already projected the information of these people directly into his spirit sea.
Thus, Chu Mo directly stopped Hu Lie and Yue Qingcheng.
He looked at the man in his thirties and said gravely, "I believe, we don't know each other, do we?"
"Of course, but it doesn't matter, I know you. Hehe, a piece of trash in the Mortal Realm who should have died, luckily escaped death. Who would have thought, you struggled step by step and climbed up to the Heavenly Realm. This opportunity, this qi movent... tsk tsk." The long-haired young man tsked, "Really strong indeed."
Chu Mo's eyes revealed a cold look.
At this mont, he could sowhat confirm that these people, nine tis out of ten... were related to the Blood Demon Ancestor!
Because apart from those closest to him, almost no one knew of his experiences in the Mortal Realm. That calamity, where Grandpa, Xu Erfu, Nayi, and others were all caught in disaster!
It was precisely that calamity that truly made Chu Mo mature. He no longer easily shed tears, nor did he easily speak his heart to others. He began to strategize ticulously and truly embarked on the path of cultivation.
The young man in front of him, ntioning the Mortal Realm, clearly had ulterior motives. Chu Mo stared at the long-haired young man, "What is your relation to the Blood Demon Ancestor?"
The long-haired young man chuckled, seemingly quite proud, "Talking with a smart person really leaves one helpless, but it's also quite refreshing. You don't need much prompting from to guess the answer. But this ti... you guessed wrong! I have no relation with the Blood Demon Ancestor!"
Chu Mo sneered, "Are you afraid that I have activated a transmission stone, and you'll be surrounded and attacked later?"
The young man sneered, a look of disdain on his face. However, Chu Mo noticed that the two won with bright eyes and white teeth had distinctly stiffened, their looks carrying a hint of disbelief.
Chu Mo smiled and looked at the two won, "You probably still don't know that the young supre being you follow is just a lackey under that old thing, the Blood Demon Ancestor, right?"
On this heavenly road, even if one ntioned nas, it would be sealed by the heavenly road. Till now, no great being from the outside could penetrate the heavenly road with their divine sense and sense this place. So Chu Mo cursed the Blood Demon Ancestor without restraint.
One of the won shouted sharply, "Shut up! Do not slander our lord!"
Chu Mo sneered, "Your lord... didn't he say it himself, he's not any young supre being, he's just... a small dog under that Blood Demon old mutt!"
"You're courting death!" The long-haired young man was imdiately enraged and attacked in an instant!
In the void, a massive hand suddenly ford, carrying a vast aura like an imnsely heavy mountain, and it fiercely slapped towards Chu Mo!
