Emperor of the North Chapter 454

Chapter 454 - Xu Ruqing's past

"Are you better?" The Silver Blood Pill that my grandfather refined is the best in terms of healing injuries. "

At the side of the waterfall in the Liquor Spirit Wonderland, Li Mu asked in a somewhat bored manner as he watched Xu Ruqing stare fixedly at the waterfall in front of them without moving a single bit.

"Did I say I was feeling better and even recovered? Are you preparing to compete with me again!?"

Li Mu turned his head and smiled at Xu Ruqing. It had been three days since Xu Ruqing injured Li Mu and in the past three days, Li Mu had a rough understanding of everything in the Wine Spirit Wonderland.

This Wine Spirit Wonderland took up tens of miles of land, including the valley that Li Mu was currently in, and the surrounding mountains of various sizes. The entire domain was enveloped by the Wine King's Wine and it would be difficult for outsiders to even discover this place if they tried to force their way in, even if they wanted to.

"Tsk, I don't care about this young miss. If I didn't feel bored staying here by myself, who would want to talk to you!?"

Xu Ruqing would toy with her long hair whenever she had nothing better to do, so she pouted as she played with her hair.

"Hehe, Miss Xu, could it be that there's no one else in the Wine Spirit Wonderland other than you and me? These few days, I've been wandering around randomly and I haven't seen anyone else around. " Li Mu asked tentatively.

There is, other than you and me, there is also the Hu Bo, but he has a weird temperament and doesn't like to show himself, I can't find him often even if I wanted to, but it's easy to find him, every time I force my way through the Great Mountain Protection Formation of the Wine Spirit Cave, he would definitely appear and take me away!

Xu Ruqing said with a faint smile, it was as though breaking through the array was normal for her, and the Hu Bo she was talking about had been caught countless of times.

"Hu Bo? "What sort of person is he? Why does he not like to come out? Could it be that he is also a person who cultivates bitterly and has been in seclusion all year round?"

Upon hearing that there was such an existence in the Wine Spirit Wonderland, Li Mu's interest was immediately piqued, and he asked with a smile.

Xu Ruqing shook her head: "No, no! Hu Bo is not an ascetic, but an alchemist. He does not need to go into seclusion, because he is a demonic cultivator who has cultivated to the transformation realm for hundreds of years. He is my grandfather's servant! "

"Demonic Qi Cultivators aren't all Rank 5! This is incredible! A level 5 Transforming Demon cultivator is actually your grandfather's servant! How amazing! Powerful! In the end, an expert of True King Realm was indeed a big shot! Furthermore, she's an alchemist. This is really unheard-of. "

He had seen level 5 transmogrified demons before, and not just that, he had also seen the Fireplume Nine Spirits Viper and the Black Wind Ape, as well as the level 5 and 6 beasts in the Grand Mysterious Realm. However, he had never seen a human servant transmogrified demons before, as they were able to reach level 5 in their cultivation.

"This is nothing. My great-grandfather's divine ability is very powerful. You'll know when you take him as your master in the future!" Xu Ruqing said with a faint smile, somewhat proud and arrogant.

"Are you so sure that the Senior Wine King will take me in as his disciple?" Once again hearing from Xu Ruqing's mouth that the alcohol wanted to take him as a disciple, Li Mu frowned.

"Of course, or do you think my great-grandfather and I would travel thousands of miles to go to the Tiange Plains to save you?" My great-grandfather said that he was entrusted by others to be loyal to others. He wanted to save you first, then take you as his disciple. "So, don't even think about leaving. This period of a few years could be three to five years, or even thirty to fifty years. In short, you don't have to think about leaving for a short period of time!"

Xu Ruqing said with a look of schadenfreude.

"Entrusted by someone? "I've been asked by someone. Miss Xu, can you tell me about your troubles?"

Hearing that the person who saved him in the wine was asked by someone else, Li Mu's face immediately tensed up. He did not know anyone who could rely on True King Stage expert to do things, even his own master Chi Yun only had later stage of Tongxuan cultivation, as for Gold Jade Sect's True King Stage expert, although he knew it was definitely there, but he had never seen it before, so the possibility of it being the Gold Jade Sect's people who asked him to do it was very small. Although the possibility of it being so, it was very small.

"How should I know? I only know some information after my grandfather spoke nonsense, that's all. You can ask him when the time comes, I'm not out with him often, he's seen someone promise something, if he doesn't want me to know, then I have no way of knowing!"

Xu Ruqing shook her head, obviously, she did not know who it was that requested the alcohol to save Li Mu.

"So that's how it is. I got it. Right, Miss Xu, do you usually just stay here by yourself?" Why don't you see your other family members? " Li Mu knew that he could not get much out of Xu Ruqing, so he changed the topic.

Being asked about his own family by Li Mu, Xu Ruqing's originally playful expression instantly darkened, and the corners of her eyes became moist. She rubbed her eyes and laughed bitterly: "My family all died when I was very young, and I don't have any other relatives apart from my grandfather, who is one of my only family. I have always lived with my grandfather, and you are also aware of the situation with the Wine Spirit Wonderland, so I was basically one person since young."

Looking at Xu Ruqing's disappointed expression, Li Mu could not bear to see all of them die, but then he asked in confusion, "All of them died? How is that possible, with Senior Wine King's True King Stage expert, who would still dare to kill your family? "

"My Xu family was originally one of the biggest cultivation families in the Beijing, so naturally no one dares to offend us. However, there is still a hidden family in the Beijing, and that is the Peng Family!"

"Because of a conflict of interest, my Xu Family and the Peng Family had some conflicts of interests. You might not understand the Beijing, but the northern part of the Yuheng Continent is under the control of the Wonderful Beast Gate, and the Wonderful Beast Gate and the Wonderful Beast Gate have long colluded with each other. Originally, the underworld clans were not allowed to partic.i.p.ate in the affairs between the cultivation world's forces, but the Peng Family is very ambitious, she has been secretly expanding her power all this while the Wonderful Beast Gate turned a blind eye."

"One day, there will finally be a day when because his Peng Family had taken over one of my Xu Family's vital veins, my Xu Family's patriarch could no longer sit still. Go to the Peng Family and negotiate with my father, his patriarch of the Peng Family will not acknowledge anything that his Peng Family has done, and on her way back, she sent people to a.s.sa.s.sinate my father, as well as her dozen or so fellow clansmen."

"Since the Patriarch has been killed, my Xu Family naturally cannot let this go. Immediately, an elder from the Xu Family contacted the only True King Stage expert outside our Xu Family, which is my great-grandfather Xu Zhongxian. However, before the clan elders can contact my great-grandfather, Peng Family sent someone to ambush us that night."

"No one would have expected that a hidden clan like his would have such a great power. I, the Xu Family, had lost in that battle and suffered an extremely miserable defeat, and not a single one of the more than three thousand people in the family had survived. At that time, my mother brought a few guards to protect me, but in the end, they were still caught up to and slaughtered me.

As he mentioned about his clan's past, the tears at the corner of Xu Ruqing's eyes had long ago flowed down uncontrollably. It was as if this was the first time he had told his past to anyone in so many years.

"Peng Family, is that the Peng Family that has the bloodline of the Kun Peng of the Holy Spirit?"

After hearing about Xu Ruqing's past, Li Mu also felt sad for him. To be able to exterminate her entire clan when she was three years old, how cruel was this to her. Although it was very unfortunate for her, at least her mother was still alive.

"That's right, that's the Peng Family that possesses the bloodline of the Holy Spirit Roc. You know about him too?" Xu Ruqing wiped the tears off her face and asked.

That guy is too arrogant and despotic, getting taught a lesson by me. If my Gold Jade Sect's Sect Leader did not stop me at that time, I would have killed him. "

Li Mu said with a wry smile. He still vividly remembered the battle he had with Peng Family Disciples Peng Dong, who was cultivating the Kun Peng Fighting Technique, on the Gold Jade Sect Street many years ago.

"Peng Dong? He is the son of the current Patriarch of Peng Family, Peng Wanli. It is said that he is not a good person either, but his talent in cultivation is not bad either, so I will kill him sooner or later! "

A trace of killing intent flashed past Xu Ruqing's eyes, as she said coldly.

"Such a pretty and cute girl, why does she have such a strong killing intent? Oh right, your Xu Family has been annihilated, has Senior Wine King never taken any revenge?"

Li Mu asked puzzledly. Logically speaking, with the clan being annihilated, as the person with the strongest cultivation in the clan, he should not let this go so easily.

"Of course, my grandfather rushed back to the clan the next day, and when he saw that the clan was in ruins, he went berserk on the spot.

Even if it was two against one, my grandfather still did not fall into a disadvantageous position. He even killed one of the Peng Family's True Kings with his divine might. "

"Even though my grandfather's divine might was peerless, he was unable to withstand his Peng Family. My grandfather lost to Zhun Diqi, and in the end, escaped with injuries. And I, under the escort of the elder who saved me, was sent to my grandfather's hands, all the way until now."

Xu Ruqing told the conclusion of the matter to Li Mu somewhat depressingly, to the point where it would be difficult for Li Mu to console him.

"I believe you want revenge?"

Looking at Xu Ruqing who had a face full of gloom, who seemed to be recalling the past, Li Mu asked softly.

Xu Ruqing nodded her head, "So what if she wants to take revenge? My grandfather didn't allow me to go, which is why he forbade me to leave the Wine Spirit Wonderland so easily, because even he couldn't beat those people, let alone me. I know that he doesn't want me to get hurt."

"Even though my grandfather didn't allow me to take revenge, I knew that my grandfather had been diligently cultivating all these years. He hoped that he could break through to the Transcendence sooner so that he could eliminate the Peng Family for revenge! He didn't want me to go because he didn't want me to waste my efforts, because there will be a day when he will make Peng Family pay with his own blood! "
