I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 326: Chapter 206: Unexpected Helping Hand

Li Mu transformed into a Sword Immortal cultivator, standing in mid-air, his elegant long robe flowing in the wind, making him appear extremely refined.

”Hmm? So that’s how it is!”

Venerable Ji Yun scrutinized the young sword cultivator before her, her phoenix eyes slightly furrowed, but soon, the Buddha beads on her wrist vibrated, and a knowing smile appeared on her face.

”A mere Nascent Soul, so cunning indeed, a hundred-year-old bone age, ordinarily you would have deceived others to pass, surely this face is not your true appearance, being so skilled in disguise and transformation arts, you must have many enemies!” Venerable Ji Yun looked at Li Mu with a smile, piercingly exposing him.

Hearing this, Li Mu’s heart trembled greatly, looking incomprehensibly at this Divinity Transformation female cultivator, not expecting her to see through his disguise at a glance.

The Tier Five Spirit Fox Mask was highly deceptive, coupled with the full-level Reversed Primordial Illusion Breathing Technique, Li Mu assured himself that his disguise was flawless, even a Divinity Transformation cultivator would find it hard to see through his facade.

Unless this person had some means, finding him through certain methods!

With a myriad of thoughts, Li Mu faced Venerable Ji Yun’s amused gaze, feeling a chill down his spine.

Who exactly was this person?

With just some subtle clues, she could expose him and deduce his current situation,

this person, is more troublesome than that Wan Ling Daoist!

She pursued him, murderous intent soaring, she was no kind soul!

Wait... those Buddha beads, weren’t they Wan Ling Daoist’s?

”What, you recognize this string of Buddha beads? You deliberately waited in the teahouse just now, surely intending to tempt Wan Ling to act, then seize the opportunity to counter-kill Wan Ling, and seize this treasure, am I right? Strange indeed! How did you know the function of this treasure?”

Venerable Ji Yun noticed Li Mu’s gaze at the Buddha beads on her wrist, his expression changing, combined with what she had just seen, it wasn’t difficult to deduce that he also recognized this treasure.

”It seems you are not an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator, daring to lure a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator by yourself with only early-stage Nascent Soul strength, you must have great confidence in your power.” Venerable Ji Yun reasoned eloquently, her face showing a radiant, all-controlling confident smile.

Li Mu frowned deeply, his heart sinking to the bottom, his mind constantly guessing the opponent’s identity.

Soon, Li Mu glanced at the Tier Five battleship, obtaining some clues through his Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits.

Li Mu sighed, discovering the opponent’s identity, hurriedly cupped his hands and said, ”The Ji Family of the Eight Great Clans is indeed full of hidden talents, the senior’s mind is meticulous, earlier at the auction, any offense from me was unintended, I hope the venerable, your lordship, will be magnanimous and spare me.”

”Oh? You actually knew I am from the Ji Family of the Eight Great Clans?”

Venerable Ji Yun looked at Li Mu with great interest, like a cat playing with a mouse.

”Isn’t it easy to guess, surely your lordship plans to seize the heavy treasure on me, right?” Li Mu looked at the treasure-seeking spirit pearl on her wrist, coldly questioning.

”Yes, but not entirely so!”

As soon as Venerable Ji Yun’s words fell, Ziguang True Monarch behind her suddenly made a move, summoning eight blocks from his storage magical treasure.

Each block was densely covered with array patterns, with a wave of his hand, they transformed into a giant purple mist barrier enveloping the ten-mile expanse and imprisoning Li Mu within.

Li Mu panicked slightly but remained composed, pretending to be fearful: ”Venerable, what do you mean by this? If you want the heavy treasure, I am willing to offer it with both hands.”

Seeing Li Mu panic, Venerable Ji Yun felt immensely pleased, sneering with contemptuous laughter: ”Just a mere barbaric Nascent Soul cultivator, you only have yourself to blame for being too ostentatious! Heavy treasures or whatnot, killing you means they’re all mine!”

Hearing this, Li Mu couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.

Do all the Eight Great Clans act this domineeringly! Before, the Kun Family was like this, and now encountering the Ji Family is the same.

Truly, with great power in hand, they can despise all living creatures in the world.

The opponent set up a Tier Four Trapping Array, which actually suited Li Mu’s intention, as Venerable Ji Yun was alone, her strength was late-stage Divinity Transformation, dealing with her wasn’t troublesome, but solving it promptly was definitely not easy.

One must know, this place wasn’t too far from the Desolate Ancient City, and the aftermath of a prolonged battle would surely alarm the Divinity Transformation cultivators in the Desolate Ancient City, or even other cultivators within the Ji Family.

The Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion had three Void Refining realm cultivators overseeing, and in the Central Continent, the Ji Family of the Eight Great Clans likely held no minor power in the Desolate Ancient City either, surely with Void Refining realm experts in command.

Speaking in two parts, before Li Mu was chased down by Venerable Ji Yun.

Desolate Ancient City - Fuyun Port, Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, inside the fifteenth VIP box, another incident occurred.

Wan Ling Daoist’s face was pale, kneeling shakily on both knees.

In front of Wan Ling Daoist sat an old man dressed in a tight-fitting black and gold brocade robe, at the peak of Divinity Transformation, exuding a thick spiritual pressure, but his face revealed signs of aging, wrinkles covering it.

”Venerable Kun Ling, what I said is entirely true, Venerable Ji Yun seized my treasure-seeking spirit pearl, and is currently pursuing the Tier Four Alchemy Master to seize the heavy treasure on him!”

Wan Ling Daoist felt wretched, having just escaped the wolf’s den, only to fall into the tiger’s lair, truly ill-fated to the utmost!

He had just left the Ji Family’s box, and the next moment, at the corner, was inexplicably caught by two late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators from the Kun Family and brought here.

Seeing that they were from the Kun Family, Wan Ling Daoist could only comply.

Elder of the Kun Family - Venerable Kun Ling, questioned why he was caught in the Ji Family’s box, and naturally, Wan Ling Daoist answered truthfully.

”Hmph, so that’s how it is, no wonder that vile woman left the seat early to seek another heavy treasure, how could I let you get your way.” Venerable Kun Ling chuckled coldly.
