Huai Beiya’s Gift
Ku Mu was marginalised. Everyone silently watched Mu Yu take step by step down the stairs. The only sound ca from the duo. There was a path deliberately left vacant for the revered hero until a man stepped in to confront Mu Yu.
The scruffy man, Ling Jueding, carried so serious muscle on him. “You True God’s disciple?”
Mu Yu pald his face. “Then, you are… Sorry, who are you?”
Ling Jueding flashed the back of his hand – rank eighty. In his booming voice, he announced, “I am a disciple of Hope Peak Sect. My na is Ling Jueding, rank eighty on Ultimate Immortals Rank. I request a match with you.”
“I suggest you get back on your dication. Why are you targeting soone lower than you, for laughs or to prove you have ntal issues?”
“They say you defeated ten opponents on your own. I may rank higher than you; however, I wish to see the skills of True God’s disciple.”
“I soloed ten people? Since when? Whoever started the lie, show yourself!”
“The rankings are initially based on nurous accomplishnts and information. Hence, they are only an approximation. Combat is subject to change by the second. Therefore, I cannot declare myself superior to you until I beat you in actual combat.”
“Are you telling you’re going to challenge everyone ranked below you? Why don’t you duke it out with Han Jiangxue from yesterday? You want to spar with him?”
“Beating you ans I have beaten him. Do you not have the courage to face ? You are desecrating True God’s na!”
This trick again? These guys need to work on their originality instead of challenging people to fights,”
“My shifu never cared about no bloody Ultimate Immortals Ranking. Did the nine leaders lead humanity to victory? Were the nine of them your hope?”
Mu Yu had a point. Even so, he was defaming the rankings that everyone was emotionally attached to. It was no different to poking their egos.
“All the more reason why I have to see how formidable an adept who doesn’t care for the ranking is!”
“For crying loud!”
Ku Mu relished Mu Yu’s misery.
Mu Yu ramd his fist back at Ling Jueding’s fist. Neither of them could shake the other. The force knocked so of the ground and broke the wooden steps behind Mu Yu. Ku Mu managed to run back upstairs, thereby escaping the damage. The most pitiful individual, of course, was the proprietor.
“Did you forget about my other shifu?” A subtle smile crept up onto Mu Yu’s face.
“You’re Eternally Youthful disciple. Your p-“
Ling Jueding lost his feelings in his hands. A red spot surfaced on his arm, then turned green and then turned blue. He jerked his shaking hand back. His face turned deathly pale.
“My point is. I sotis supplent with poison.” Mu Yu dusted his hand.
In a duel where both cultivators were of equal level, one couldn’t inject poison into the other. Ling Jueding was careless and let Mu Yu get too close, giving Mu Yu a free win.
“Scram!” Mu Yu kicked Ling Jueding out of the inn via his gut. He turned to the others and took out a purple ball. “Who else wants a round? I’m as confident in my proficiency with poison as I am with swordplay. Any volunteers? There’s no rule against how I win, is there?”
Crack! Mu Yu dropped the purple ball, releasing a purple mist into the atmosphere!
“It’s Eternally Youthful Ku Mu’s poison! Run!”
The cultivators in the inn fled helter skelter. So people were so desperate that they violently smashed their way out. By the ti they felt safe and turned around to look back, Mu Yu was already gone.
“Why did you use a non-venomous purple mist? You should’ve just used glaze.”
The duo bid the city farewell and continued their journey to Twenty-Five Kilotres South Garden.
“Hehe, that’d be a waste. What happens if I hurt my eyes? We only needed to shake them up.”
“Mu Yu, the number on your hand has changed to eighty,” Xiaoshuai prompted.
Mu Yu checked the crest on his hand. “You serious? I doubt I would’ve had such an easy ti against Ling Jueding. He just wasn’t as tough as the rhinoceros.”
“Mu Yu, might I be able to have a mont of your ti?” A maiden suddenly got in Mu Yu’s way. She was the one who watched Mu Yu the entire ti yesterday.
Mu Yu contracted his brows. “You also here to challenge ?”
The maiden removed her veil. “I dare not. Would you happen to rember ?”
“Hello, Miss Beiya. How can I help you?”
The dragon vine seethed when it saw Huai Beiya. It still hadn’t gotten over the mory of them kidnapping it to Floating Celestial Island.
Huai Beiya dimpled. “It is an honour you rember . I am here to offer you a humble gift. I hope it is acceptable.”
Huai Beiya gently clicked her finger, summoning a jadeite piece the size of a thumb for Mu Yu.
“This is?”
Comprehensive information on all of the Ultimate Immortals travelled from the piece of jade to Mu Yu’s mind instantaneously. His own profile read:
Na: Mu Yu

Ho: Moyun Mountains

There were also reports on Mu Yu’s feats at Floating Celestial Island.
The take-ho ssage from the detailed profiles was simple: Huai Beiya’s, rather, Million Company’s, intelligence gathering abilities were exceptional, to say the least. The only information missing from Mu Yu’s profile was what transpired at Second Heaven.
One piece of information particularly perturbed Mu Yu. He raised his alertness level and questioned, “How do you know I ca from Moyun Mountains?”
