After that, the black-clothed subordinate at the head immediately motioned to the black-clothed subordinate next to him to open the black on the corpse.

The black cloth was slowly pulled away, revealing a white corpse with tattered clothes and a bulging back, scarred on its back, and a few blood marks that had long since solidified and blackened into five conspicuous characters.

"Kill Zhu after half a month"

The bloodstained characters came into view, Zhu Hongqing's muscles were shocking, his face was hideous, and the next moment a powerful source force fluctuation poured out of his body.

The surrounding air flow quickly turbulent, and several black-clothed men not far away instantly flew away, and at the same time, the miserable white corpses on the stretcher were also overturned and fell to the ground.

Zhu Hong's eyebrows froze again, but he did not continue to release the source power, but stopped suddenly.

Looking at the terrifying pit on the ruffian's chest, Zhu Hong's face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "It seems that the boy is undoubtedly the one who has practiced the secret technique 'Qi Breaking' that I gave to Fat Five, so good, dare to provoke me, I really have some ability!"

At this moment, Zhu Hongfang really regarded Liu Mu as an enemy, not a lamb to the slaughter.

Because Zhu Hong knew how difficult it was to cultivate and learn to break the qi, this was not something that could be comprehended casually in three or two months, even if he was already a source master at the beginning, it took him a whole year to cultivate this secret technique.

And now a little baby who is only in the source can practice it to the end of the school in such a short time, which is enough to show that the latter's talent and growth ability should not be underestimated.

"Old... Great, as far as we are concerned... According to the news, many people now know about the war letter given to you by the boy. ”

The black-clothed subordinate at the head saw that Zhu Hong's anger had subsided, and he hurriedly got up from the ground, and then knelt down on one knee to make a sound.

"Hmph, it's okay, since he took the initiative to challenge, then I, Zhu Hong, will take it, you release the news to me, and I will also let everyone know what it means to be unknowing! Also, continue to search!"

Zhu Hong's face was fierce and arrogant, obviously he had his own plans.

The reason why Zhu Hong followed Liu Mu's wishes was largely because of his great confidence in his own strength.

You must know that on the surface, others think that they are five-star source masters, but in fact, they have hidden strength, and they have recently practiced a Xuan-level top-grade secret technique, looking at the surrounding villages and even the entire Bailei Town, I am afraid that few people will be their opponents.

Therefore, Zhu Hong is not afraid of Liu Mu at all, more precisely, he just attaches importance to the latter's growth ability, but now he does not pay attention to it, more because he is afraid that the latter will not show up.

And whether to use the villagers of Sanyin Village to blackmail the two babies is no longer the first consideration for Zhu Hong, because first of all, this kind of thing will have a certain negative impact on himself no matter what, and Zhu Hong can't pack a 100% ticket to let the two babies really come to surrender and die.

Now what can be confirmed is that the whereabouts of the two babies are still here, and now they dare to dare to write a war book, presumably there is no helper who can match their own but they also have plans to prepare, so Zhu Hong naturally wants to give the two babies a smooth boat to lure the rats out of the hole, otherwise how can they trap these two cunning mice?

......

In the rest area of the hall on the first floor of the Blood Thunder Mercenary Station, there are still groups of people who are either discussing money and women, or talking about gossip about the world.

"I heard no, the two babies who ran away before came back and killed the ruffian. ”

"Who's the ruffian?"

"It's one of Zhu Hong's lazy subordinates. ”

"I've also heard that it seems to be the writing board that the boy specially used to write a war letter to Zhu Hong, and the bloodstains spelled 'kill Zhu in three months'. ”

"Hahaha, it's a ruthless baby!"

"Killing pigs? Zhu Hong is a fat pig, but the two babies are afraid that they can't hold the pig-killing knife. ”

"Hey, hey, I think the two babies are deliberately playing with that pig!"

......

Twelve days later.

Somewhere in the Blood Thunder Mountains.

A black figure was sitting cross-legged on a soft grass, his eyes closed, his body surrounded by source power, and in front of him were more than a dozen thumb-sized crystals, all of which seemed to be the beast crystals of second-order source beasts.

An hour later, all the beast crystals in front of the black figure were refined and absorbed.

Liu Mu slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbidity, his face calm but mixed with some complicated emotions.

"It seems that I still haven't been able to break through that barrier. ”

Liu Mu's face was a little gloomy, and he muttered alone.

The barrier that Liu Mu said actually refers to the barrier that the source person stepped into the source master.

This barrier is neither thick nor thin, as long as ordinary people reach the peak of the Nine Star Source and continue to work hard to polish, they can step into the Source Master, but this process will be relatively long, it will probably take a year or two or even several years, but there are many factors such as talent.

And in addition to this, there is another way to break down this barrier, and it is a shortcut.

Of course, there is an additional price to be paid for a shortcut, and many chaebol families usually give their own children who have reached the peak of the Nine Stars a chance to break through, that is, to let them absorb and refine a third-order source beast beast crystal.

The amount of third-order source beast beast crystals itself is not high, but the demand is very large, and under the influence of this scarce market, the price of a third-order source beast is naturally expensive.

However, this kind of breakthrough is only once for everyone, and there is a lot of luck, after a failure, the effect will drop greatly, and the only way to do it is to honestly and earnestly work hard to cultivate and polish it.

Liu Mu would naturally think of this shortcut now, but now his savings obviously couldn't buy a third-order source beast crystal, and Liu Mu didn't want to trouble An Tong anymore, because he still had his own plans.

Zhu Hong took on the challenge Liu Mu already knew, this is also one of the latter's plans, Liu Mu is using Zhu Hong's inner pride and face love to induce him to 'accept' his own delaying strategy, time for the current Liu Mu, is undoubtedly a ruthless race for life.

......

The sky gradually darkened, and the entire Blood Thunder Mountain Range was covered with a veil of mysterious darkness, because in this dark night, there could be more traces of the Death Scythe at any time.

A figure walked alone in the night.

The surroundings were dim and dark, and by the faint light of the starry sky, the human eye could only glimpse the general outline of the woods and stone slopes.

There was silence all around, and only the rustling of dead branches could be heard under his feet, but there would be a roar of the source beast in the distance from time to time.

Yanagi found the neighborhood quiet and unusual, unable to hear the chirping of insects and birds, as if everything had come to a standstill, and there was an eerie dead silence all around.

Willow Wood paused, leaning lightly against a towering tree, holding his breath as if trying to catch the insignificant sound in the air.

It was still quiet, so quiet that Liu Mu could hear the vibration of his heart beating very clearly.

Suddenly, a rich and gloomy aura swept through Liu Mu's mind, and at the same time, Liu Mu quickly leaned over and squatted.

The next moment, a sharp "bang" sound sounded at the top of Liu Mu's head, and at the same time, a seeping cold wind blew.

Liu Mu only stayed for a moment, then urged the origin force, the soles of his feet supported back, and his body immediately burst out, and he quickly turned around and stayed not far away, staring straight at the back of the slowly falling tree.

A tall pitch-black figure of about the two of them came into the former's eyes.
