Zhou Mu left.
Leaving Xu Lingjun holding so kind of colorful fireworks in his hand, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
Earlier, he had heard Liu Zhiyuan ntion that this ti Zhou Mu might also be here to ambush Han Yun City, and from Liu Zhiyuan’s tone, it seed he wanted to seek my help.
But firstly, I guess he didn’t want to force into it. After all, this was their plan, so why forcibly drag another unrelated person into it?
Secondly, perhaps he didn’t think Xu Lingjun could actually do anything against Han Yun City...
After all, a gap of two years isn’t easily bridged.
In fact, as long as Xu Lingjun can protect himself, that’s enough in his eyes.
But now, Zhou Mu seems to want to drag into his camp... although his ans are a bit underhanded.
If you want my help, just ask, why pretend to be helping and leave owing him a favor...
Xu Lingjun’s impression of this Zhou Mu instantly plumted to the bottom.
This kind of person, with too many hidden motives, is not soone to be deeply associated with.
Comparatively, Han Yun City seems more straightforward. At least when he said he didn’t want those beast ears, he actually sent all those things to , not to ntion he saved my life.
Xu Lingjun thought to himself, isn’t this a perfect opportunity for ? Zhou Mu wants to target Han Yun City, and he’s chosen as his partner, so can’t I just help Han Yun City instead?
This way, wouldn’t I be returning the favor?
anwhile.
About ten miles away.
In the ice and snow, pure white surroundings.
"Co out, your clumsy lurking technique, if you were in the Ninth Army, you would have been punished with three days of confinent. Exposing yourself is fine, but getting your comrades killed, you couldn’t repay that with your life ten tis over."
Han Yun City turned back and glanced at the snowy landscape, coldly smiling, "But with your cold-hearted nature, I fear you wouldn’t care about those you got killed... even if they consider you a friend, like Roger. I heard he took you as his godson? How does it feel, Luo Mu... no, it should be Zhou Mu·Sparrow, to betray your father?"
"It’s all for our respective masters. After all, I had ulterior motives from the start, so betrayal doesn’t apply."
Zhou Mu’s figure slowly erged from the snow.
"Betrayal is betrayal, and I despise betrayal, so I despise you, that’s all!"
Han Yun City extended his hand, and a Blood Gun appeared in his hand.
He looked at Zhou Mu with disdain in his eyes and said, "What are you following for? Don’t tell you think that since I’m injured, you can take advantage of it?"
"Of course not."
Facing Han Yun City, Zhou Mu’s expression was not as warm as when facing Xu Lingjun, instead full of gloom. He didn’t hide his hostility, coldly laughing, "It seems your main aim in entering the Secret Realm this ti is that Xu Lingjun, right?"
Han Yun City bluntly said, "Yes, I say what I an, not like you, beating around the bush like a sissy. What, sissy, do you have a problem, want to protect that Xu Lingjun?"
Zhou Mu said, "No, I’m just saying, that Xu Lingjun seems quite strong to injure you this much?"
Han Yun City coldly said, "At least stronger than you."
A glint suddenly flashed in Zhou Mu’s eyes...
He chuckled coldly, "Indeed, just like my grandfather said, he also said Xu Lingjun could be considered the number one among the younger generation, and his evaluation is even above yours."
Above ?
Han Yun City recalled that unfathomable face, and he sowhat agreed, thinking that at least I don’t have such a thick skin, and he is two years younger than , yet can hold the upper hand in our fight. Above indeed makes sense.
But if we strip down, he might not scare .
He raised an eyebrow and said, "Certainly much stronger than you, what, not convinced?"
"Of course I’m not convinced!"
Zhou Mu angrily punched the tree beside him, coldly said, "From childhood to adulthood, I’ve been my grandfather’s pride, but after seeing that Xu Lingjun, the way he looks at changed. I know because I’m no longer the number one young person in his eyes. Though he praises , he no longer sees as the best."
Han Yun City: "You never were, to him, you’re inferior to Xu Lingjun, even inferior to ."
Zhou Mu sneered, "You really think what I’ve shown is all my strength? If it were a life and death struggle, Han Yun City, you might not be my match."
Han Yun City: "But in your grandfather’s eyes, you’re still no match for Xu Lingjun."
Zhou Mu coldly said, "I’ve always only shown seven parts of my strength, the most crucial three parts, I’ve never shown anyone, except my grandfather. No one knows my trump card, and the unknown is truly terrifying, I know your strength, but do you know mine?"
Han Yun City: "I don’t, but your grandfather does, and in his eyes, you’re still no match for Xu Lingjun."
Zhou Mu’s eyes flashed with anger, then turned calm, saying, "I know, and that’s why... I want to kill him!"
Han Yun City paused and asked in return, "Just because of this?"
He looked at Zhou Mu with shock in his eyes, evidently not expecting soone’s mind to be so narrow, just because of soone else’s opinion that Xu Lingjun is better, which is true, but he’d want his life for it.
"Exactly, just because of this!"
Zhou Mu calmly said, "Because of this... I’m my grandfather’s pride, now and must be in the future, but now, be it my cultivation technique or martial skill, there’s no longer that earlier amazent in his eyes. I know it’s because he’s seen Xu Lingjun, so I can’t tolerate him, you can ridicule for my narrow-mindedness, or think I can’t tolerate others, but I just want Xu Lingjun dead, I just don’t like him."
He looked at Han Yun City, smiling lightly, "So although my grandfather wants to ambush you, from a certain perspective, we’re on the sa side."
Han Yun City looked deeply at Zhou Mu.
Reason told him he was joking, tricking him, how could soone be so narrow-minded... but his intuition told him, the person before him wasn’t lying.
Xu Lingjun is in danger.
This person’s strength, even if slightly less than his, hidden vipers in the dark can often be more dangerous than the roaring tigers in the forest.
Just the chance to repay him for saving my life earlier.
Thinking this, Han Yun City asked, "What do you plan to do?"
"Simple, you just had a fight with Xu Lingjun, you should have an idea of his strength. Since he’s injured you this much, it seems trying to kill him alone might be a bit overwhelming for you. I have here a colorful firework, after you et him, release this colorful firework, and I’ll co at once to join you."
Zhou Mu earnestly said, "The two of us first team up to get rid of Xu Lingjun, and then you and I can have a life-and-death duel, no grudges, what do you think?"
As if fearing he hadn’t made it clear he added, "There’s no deep hatred between us, only opposing camps, but to , Xu Lingjun is a threat I wish to eliminate at all costs, my desire to kill him is greater than yours."
"Fine, I agree."
Han Yun City took the colorful fireworks, nodding, "I will release it, indeed, I am eager to fight Xu Lingjun again..."
"Good, farewell then."
Zhou Mu waved his hand, turned, and started walking away.
Just as he turned, a cold smile appeared in his eyes...
Yes, I didn’t lie.
I do want Xu Lingjun more dead than I want you, but I never said I wouldn’t kill you along with him too.
You two fought like that just now, surely there’s true animosity, I don’t believe you won’t fall into my trap.
anwhile.
After Zhou Mu’s figure disappeared, Han Yun City looked down at the colorful fireworks in his hand, his eyes showing a hint of contemplation, murmuring, "This ti, maybe I can repay the favor I owe Xu Lingjun... my instincts were right, I’ve always felt that Zhou Mu wasn’t any good, and now it seems, he’s indeed not any good."
Even worse than I thought.
