After a short conversation between Liu Mu and Liu Jianghan, he finally found Zhou Qing, who had already retreated silently to the side, so Liu Mu said with some surprise: "Zhou Qing, why are you here?"

Although Zhou Qing didn't like Liu Jianghan's posture very much, his senses for Liu Mu were not bad.

Zhou Qing smiled slightly and said, "It just so happens that some friends are imprisoned here by you, so I came here to rescue them." ”

"Dad, what the hell is going on?" Liu Mu looked at Liu Jianghan with a blank expression and asked.

In this regard, Liu Jianghan did not hide anything, he told Liu Mu everything from the discovery of Zhou Qing's traces, and the imprisonment of Zhou Qing until Liu Yuanshan and Ye Huangtian entered the area of the Tree of Life together.

After listening to those things, Liu Mu was a little shocked and speechless.

Ye Huangtian's origin is mysterious, but Zhou Qing did not die after receiving Liu Yuanshan's blow, and he also obtained the life force released from the Tree of Life, all of which is simply incredible.

When Liu Mu and Zhou Qing parted that day, Zhou Qing said that they might see each other again.

At that time, Liu Mu just took Zhou Qing's words as politeness, who would have thought that Zhou Qing really came to the Mu Domain, and it caused that kind of uproar.

Although Ye Huangtian seized Liu Shaojie, after he controlled Liu Yuanshan, he would inevitably find a way to attack the Mu Clan, but Zhou Qing's arrival undoubtedly accelerated Ye Huangtian's plan, and it can be said that the predicament that the Mu Clan is facing now has an inseparable relationship with Zhou Qing.

At this time, Liu Zhen walked slowly and asked, "Xiao Mu, how did you and Zhou Qing meet?" Could it be that he has been hiding in the Mu Domain before, and after you met him, you actually covered up his identity and did not report it to me?"

Liu Mu hurriedly shook his head and said, "Great Elder, no. Didn't you let me enter the Phantom Star Sea before, looking for the Fixed-Earth Divine Tree, where I met Zhou Qing. ”

"Moreover, when I arrived at the area of the Dingdi Divine Tree, I found that Liu Shaojie was also there, as you know, Liu Shaojie has cultivated a certain powerful forbidden technique of our Wood Clan, and his strength is very terrifying. Just when Liu Shaojie was about to hurt me, it was Zhou Qing who saved me. ”

As Liu Mu told him how he met Zhou Qing, Liu Zhen's gaze at Zhou Qing was full of surprise.

Zhou Qing was too mysterious, and the mysterious aura that shrouded him made Liu Zhen a little unable to see through.

However, how Zhou Qing entered the Wood Clan from the Phantom Star Sea, Liu Zhen didn't ask about this matter, after all, everyone has their own secrets.

Liu Jianghan came to Zhou Qing, he bowed slightly, and said apologetically: "Zhou Qing, I apologize to you for my previous rudeness, thank you for saving Xiaomu." ”

As one of the two major rulers of the Mu Clan, Liu Jianghan is a person who can bend and stretch, his expression is sincere, and in front of Zhou Qing, he did not show an arrogant posture again because of his identity.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing just nodded lightly.

He didn't show much interest in Liu Jianghan's apology, but turned his eyes to Liu Zhen and asked, "Great Elder, I don't know something, who is Ye Huangtian?" From my previous conversation with him, he seems to have a deep relationship with your Mu Clan?"

On the side, Liu Jianghan and Liu Mu heard Zhou Qingdi's inquiry, and they both fell on Liu Zhen with curious eyes.

They were also very curious about Ye Huangtian's origin.

A gloomy look appeared on Liu Zhen's old face, he sighed helplessly, and said slowly: "Well, since Ye Huangtian is still alive, then you should also know about some of the things that happened to our Mu Clan." ”

Liu Zhen's eyes were desolate, and he slowly explained an unknown past of the Mu Clan.

When Liu Zhen was the same age as Liu Mu, at that time, he was one of the most famous geniuses in the Mu clan.

At that time, Liu Zhen was talented and powerful, and was deeply admired by countless girls, and his master was the patriarch of the Mu clan at that time, so almost everyone felt that Liu Zhen would definitely be able to become the next patriarch of the Mu clan in the future.

That is, in the praise of everyone, Liu Zhen enjoys countless glory.

However, at that time, a young man who was almost the same size as Liu Zhen was silently hiding in the corner, staring at Liu Mu, and that person was Ye Huangtian.

Ye Huangtian grew up with Liu Zhen since he was a child, and the two cultivated and grew up together, which can be said to be close and good brothers.

This brotherly love gradually became dull after Liu Zhen showed his strong cultivation talent.

Because Ye Huangtian at that time, his talent was very ordinary, and half a year after stepping into the cultivation path, Liu Zhen had almost left him far behind.

Although on weekdays, Liu Zhen's attitude towards Ye Huangtian is the same as before.

However, in Ye Huangtian's heart, that brotherhood has already cracked, and the last thing that Ye Huangtian can endure is that everyone in the Mu clan regards Liu Zhen as the only candidate for the next patriarch.

This point, Ye Huangtian must not accept it, absolutely not!

Because, Ye Huangtian's father was the patriarch of the Mu clan at that time, that is, Liu Zhen's master.

Ye Huangtian has always regarded the position of the patriarch as something at his fingertips, how could he allow others to get involved.

It was precisely because of this that Ye Huangtian gradually hated Liu Zhen.

He hated Liu Zhen's talent, hated Liu Zhen's fake appearance, and hated his father even more.

Because, Ye Huangtian's father, he has never given Ye Huangtian the slightest praise, in his eyes, Liu Zhen is his most proud disciple, and even he deliberately accepted Liu Zhen as his adopted son.

Since then, the sprout of hatred in Ye Huangtian's heart has become stronger and stronger, until later, Ye Huangtian found the forbidden technique called life deprivation in many ancient books of the Mu clan.

Life deprivation, that is an extremely terrifying forbidden technique that the ancestors of the Mu clan realized by chance.

That forbidden technique can enable cultivators to forcibly absorb the life force of all the surrounding plants and trees for their own use, so as to improve their cultivation without limit.

After Ye Huangtian was deprived of life, his whole person fell into an almost crazy state, he was obsessed with cultivating life deprivation, and his own strength was improving at a speed beyond ordinary people's imagination.

In less than half a year, Ye Huangtian caught up with Liu Zhen thoroughly, and half a year later, Ye Huangtian had already overtaken Liu Zhen and left him far behind.

In this world, for any son, what he desires most is to be recognized and praised by his father.

At that time, after Ye Huangtian's strength improved by leaps and bounds, he showed his strength in front of his father again and again, but his father did not have any praise for him.

On the contrary, Ye Huangtian's father showed a very encouraging attitude towards Liu Zhen.

From childhood to youth, Ye Huangtian has no memory of how many times he tried his best and cultivated hard, hoping to get his father's appreciation, but what he finally got was just a cold face and some words that were not salty or light.

As a result, Ye Huangtian's heart hated his father more and more.

Since then, Ye Huangtian has become silent, he no longer communicates with anyone, let alone shows his joys, sorrows, and joys in front of anyone.

Because the Wood Domain was almost all endless mountains, in the years after Ye Huangtian, he stayed alone on a lonely mountain.

There was no one to bother him, and no one cared about him.

And it was during those few years that Ye Huangtian used life deprivation to frantically improve his cultivation.

Even when the huge life force poured into his body, almost bursting his meridians, he was ignoring the pain and constantly getting stronger.

This kind of cultivation that is almost crazy has also achieved very obvious results.

At the age of thirty, Ye Huangtian had already broken through the Earth Martial Realm and became the youngest Earth Martial Realm powerhouse in the history of the Mu Clan.

However, no one could share this joy with him, and he was still alone on that lonely mountain.

After another few years passed, the entire Mu Clan almost didn't remember Ye Huangtian's existence.

It was at that time that Liu Zhen finally broke through the Earth Martial Realm.

At that time, Ye Huangtian's father was very happy when he learned the news, and he even decided to announce that Liu Zhen would become the next patriarch of the Mu clan in front of everyone at a ceremony of the Mu clan.

That news somehow reached Ye Huangtian's ears.

At the ceremony of the Mu Clan, just when Ye Huangtian's father was about to announce that Liu Zhen would be the next patriarch of the Mu Clan, Ye Huangtian suddenly appeared.

Ye Huangtian had a monstrous anger burning in his heart, and he looked hideous, asking his father hysterically.

But Ye Huangtian's father, when facing Ye Huangtian, his expression was always so indifferent, as if in his opinion, Ye Huangtian's son was an insignificant person at all.

So, Ye Huangtian was furious.

In countless shocking gazes, Ye Huangtian finally released his breath.

In the Nine Realms of Earth Martial Realm, Ye Huangtian, who was only thirty-five years old at the time, had reached the same strength as his father, and everyone was shocked and even more puzzled.

Because, with Ye Huangtian's talent, it is impossible for him to have such strength.

But no matter how many doubts everyone had in their hearts, Ye Huangtian was already a real Earth Martial Realm Ninefold powerhouse.

Later, Ye Huangtian and his father fell into a fierce battle, in which Ye Huangtian was knocked off the cliff and did not know whether he was alive or dead.

And Ye Huangtian's father, although he defeated Ye Huangtian, he also died soon after because of the injuries left by Ye Huangtian.

After Liu Zhen finished saying everything, his expression was sad, and he sighed: "After the death of the master, I swore that I would never compete for the position of patriarch again, so later, even though I became the strongest person in the Mu clan, I only stayed in the position of the great elder and never touched the position of the patriarch." ”
