Chapter 328: The Old Man of Withered Leaves
“Ancient tis Corpse-Resolving Immortal?”
Li Muyang, upon hearing this unfamiliar term, felt a slight stir in his heart.
“What is an ancient tis Corpse-Resolving Immortal?”
Just the na alone was out of the ordinary.
He couldn’t help but be curious.
Why would that group of people with strange origins think that he was possessed by an ancient tis Corpse-Resolving Immortal?
But then he heard the ghost girl say,
“Those guys said that your cultivation has progressed so quickly, reaching the Golden Core realm in just one year, which is very much like the cultivation evil thods of the ancient tis Corpse-Resolving Immortal.”
“So they want to find you, saying that many people with strange deaths have occurred near the Demon Refining Sect, which is very much like the evil arts of that Corpse-Resolving Immortal, and you might have obtained the inheritance of the Corpse-Resolving Immortal.”
The ghost girl didn’t know much more and couldn’t provide any more useful information.
Li Muyang, however, was deep in thought and sowhat troubled.
“What the hell is this Corpse-Resolving Immortal... This is purely an undeserved disaster!”
My one-year Golden Core and rapid progress in my cultivation are all due to my own efforts, day after day of hard work playing gas.
How could I be randomly labeled as a Corpse-Resolving Immortal?
The key point is that these guys know he has the cultivation of the Golden Core realm and still dare to co and try to kill him... Their strength must be extraordinary, definitely not weak.
And here in Jiuyuan City, this place is a remote countryside, the strongest local person is Yan Xiaoru’s personal maid, Aunt Su.
Besides her, the others are all weak.
It’s not like you can expect the enemy to co over and for Hu Lie, the Lord of Jiuyuan City at the Foundation Establishnt Realm, to suddenly display divine might and repel the powerful enemy, right?
Li Muyang looked at the ghost girl and asked,
“When are those guys coming? When do they plan to make their move... Have you heard anything about this?”
The ghost girl Shen Miao shook her head innocently, “I don’t know, they talk very little.”
“After staying in that Yin Sha ley line area, they basically stopped talking.”
“But they probably haven’t arrived yet because when I heard their plan, they said they were waiting for one more person.”
“That person is called the Old Man of Withered Leaves, and he seems very powerful. They plan to co to Jiuyuan City to find you after this Old Man of Withered Leaves arrives.”
Shen Miao said, “I imdiately ran to inform you after hearing the news, so those guys probably haven’t arrived yet. Brother-in-law, there’s still ti for you to run.”
Li Muyang frowned slightly, “The Old Man of Withered Leaves?”
This na sounded sowhat familiar as if he had heard it sowhere.
But he was usually imrsed in cultivation and playing gas, paying little attention to news from the outside world, so he didn’t know much about the big figures in the world of immortals and demons.
Fortunately, within the Demon Refining Sect, there was a special “internal reference” issued to the various direct disciples and powerful inner disciples to keep them inford about the prominent figures in the world of immortals and demons.
This “internal reference” was updated irregularly, recording many big figures and the latest events in the world of immortals and demons.
Li Muyang’s thoughts moved, and he took out a small booklet that he had just received not long ago from his Qiankun Ring and began to flip through it.
On the first page was the number one person in the current righteous path, the mysterious and powerful Fairy Qinglian.
The illustration on the page was very well drawn, even animated, with a quality that could easily outdo many second-rate mobile gas from his previous life.
The fairy in green clothes stood alone above the clouds, with an indifferent expression and an endless sword domain shimring behind her.
But Li Muyang wasn’t looking for titillating images to indulge in.
After a brief glance, he quickly flipped past the page of the Fairy Qinglian, continuing to look further.
The seemingly thin booklet seed to have endless pages.
Li Muyang flipped through more than a hundred pages before he found the information he was looking for.
【The Old Man of Withered Leaves】
On page 139, there was an illustration of the Old Man of Withered Leaves.
An old man with silver hair, holding a bamboo staff and a gentle smile, he didn’t look like soone from the demonic path, but more like a kind and amiable old doctor.
However, the dense text beside the illustration simply explained this person’s identity and his bloody achievents.
【The Old Man of Withered Leaves is affiliated with the Qingyang Association, a Divine Travel Realm cultivator, practicing the demonic skill “Green Snake Scipture,” adept in using poison, curses, and talismanic arts. Disciples of the sect who encounter him should flee imdiately, as he is invincible to anyone below the Divine Travel Realm】
Below this text were so of the Old Man of Withered Leaves’ bloody achievents.
Slaying Divine Travel Realm cultivators and even an unfortunate Purple Mansion cultivator died under his poisonous talismans and curses.
Such formidable achievents made Li Muyang’s heart turn cold.
This old monster’s evil arts could actually kill across levels, even taking down a Purple Mansion?
This was outright cheating!
He, with his system full of cheats, now in the late Golden Core realm, didn’t dare to guarantee that he could kill across levels against a Cave Profound realm cultivator.
But this Old Man of Withered Leaves had accomplished the feat of killing across levels, and the victim was a Purple Mansion.
Li Muyang looked at the booklet in his hand, feeling a chill.
Beside him, the ghost girl also widened her eyes and said,
“Brother-in-law, this... this Old Man of Withered Leaves is so fierce! You’re not going to die this ti, are you?”
The group that was with the Old Man of Withered Leaves was likely to be Divine Travel Realm demonic cultivators on the sa level as him.
Even if they were weaker, they probably weren’t much weaker.
He had sohow attracted the attention of so many demonic madn all at once?
This is... how is one supposed to live?
He originally thought that Aunt Su, Yan Xiaoru’s personal maid who was a Divine Travel Realm cultivator, would be able to ensure their safety on this trip.
But now it seems that if it really is the Old Man of Withered Leaves leading the demonic madn to their doorstep, even Yan Xiaoru herself might not be sure of victory.
Shen Miao looked worried, “Brother-in-law, what should we do? The enemy is too strong.”
Li Muyang snorted, put away the booklet, and said coldly, “If I can’t beat them, can’t I still run away?”
The best plan is to flee when facing insurmountable odds.
Now that the enemy hadn’t arrived yet, Li Muyang naturally planned to escape first.
It would be foolish to confront them head-on when the odds are so uneven and the chance of winning is zero.
However, he needed to plan his escape carefully.
Li Muyang imdiately stepped out of his house and instructed the maidservant to invite Li Yuechan and Ning Wan’er from the Ning residence.
The two girls had made plans to go out of the city for an outing today and were currently enjoying the lilight surrounded by their young friends.
Li Muyang had no interest in such lilight, so he had declined to accompany them.
Soon, Ning Wan’er and Li Yuechan, having received the ssage, hurried back, both with puzzled expressions.
“Brother, what’s happened? You said it was extrely urgent?”
Li Yuechan asked curiously as she entered.
In their eyes, Li Muyang was always steady and reserved, never hasty.
Sothing urgent enough to make him speak out must be a significant matter.
Under the curious gaze of Ning Wan’er and Li Yuechan, Li Muyang dismissed all the maidservants, leaving only the Divine Travel Realm’s Aunt Su.
“It’s like this, I’ve received reliable information that the Old Man of Withered Leaves from the Qingyang Association is coming to Jiuyuan City to kill .”
Facing the puzzled looks of the three, Li Muyang got straight to the point and quickly explained,
“They suspect that I am a descendant of so ancient Corpse-Resolving Immortal, saying that my cultivation has improved so quickly that I might have received the inheritance of the Corpse-Resolving Immortal.”
“So they want to co and kill , and they might already be on their way.”
