Chapter 99

.

Nobody came to the mountain after the two left . The days were peaceful . Gu Yaosen had maybe been too worried .

Mu Yi got used to his new life as the days passed . Even though Gu Yaosen’s wife was wealthy and high-ranking, she didn’t look down at him . She even cooked for him and talked about arts with him . There was no need for him to grovel at her feet .

It was a bit inconvenient to have the two sisters there because Nian Nuer couldn’t come out anytime she wished . When he hit the wooden dummy in the morning, he knew that someone was watching him from behind . When he practiced cultivation in the evening, he couldn’t focus completely because he wasn’t alone .

Mu Yi eventually got used to their presence . He was able to meditate as if they weren’t there at all . It seemed nothing was going to happen and that they would be able to leave soon but someone came and invaded the mountain .

Gu Yaosen made some law enforcement officers stay at the foot of the mountain . People could only visit the mountain with Mu Yi’s permission . People from the Su Clan could also come freely, but nobody else was tolerated up there . However, the mountain was invaded by a loud, arrogant, and impolite person .

“So, you’re Mu Yi?” said the person .

He was appraising Mu Yi with his eyes . His expression was full of disdain . Mu Yi’s expression was neutral . He didn’t need to stoop to the person’s level . The person who had come was in their thirties and he was wearing winter clothes . He had ordinary features, except for protruding ears that looked strange .

He didn’t have the Qi of an ordinary person though . He probably practiced Kung Fu . However, he was extremely far from being as strong as Qiu Yuetong, even her two female assistants could probably defeat him . When he called Mu Yi’s name, he sounded as if he had prepared before coming . He sounded confident and didn’t seen to fear Mu Yi at all .

“Indeed,” said Mu Yi indifferently .

“Hand the two women over . Nobody disobeys our Master,” said the man loudly .

The two women could also hear him clearly . Mu Yi was furious . The man sounded so confident . Did he think Mu Yi would just obey? Mu Yi knew that the Church of the Thousand Children was powerful .

However, Mu Yi didn’t feel like talking nonsense . He took out an evil spirit slaying charm and placed it casually on his enemy’s chest . The man was forced away by the power in the charm and violently crashed to the ground . A crater appeared where he landed .

“You… you…” the man stuttered .

He was furious and shaking with anger . He couldn’t believe Mu Yi had attacked him . He had been sent by the Church that’s why he was confident even though he knew that Mu Yi had skills and power . He had dared to act recklessly, but he hadn’t thought Mu Yi would dare to attack him . He wasn’t afraid of offending the Church?

“Go back and tell your Master of Protection or whatever that if he wants the women, he can come personally,” said Mu Yi coldly .

The man stood up and took a step back . He was scared by Mu Yi’s boldness and staggered a bit before falling down in the crater again . Mu Yi ignored the little buffoon . He turned around and went back into the Mountain God Temple .

Mu Yi left and the guy finally crawled up again . He looked upset . When he left the mountain, the two women went to see Mu Yi . They both looked apologetic, especially Gu Yaosen’s wife . She hadn’t thought things would turn out this way .

If the Church of the Thousand Children had started sending people, it meant that they were paying attention to Mu Yi . It also meant they weren’t afraid of him . Gu Yaosen’s wife felt guilty for causing trouble .

Mu Yi didn’t blame her . He had accepted Gu Yaosen’s request . He knew that such a thing could happen . He wasn’t worried at all . Plus, that guy had really gotten under Mu Yi’s skin .

Mu Yi rarely got upset but that guy had managed to infuriate him . How many women had been taken against their will and raped by that Master? The numbers were probably too horrifying .

If the guy hadn’t been so arrogant, Mu Yi wouldn’t have gotten angry . After all, there were many pathetic and lowly people in that world . However, Mu Yi wasn’t a saint and wouldn’t accept any kind of treatment .

Mu Yi felt a slight pressure surrounding him as if evil people of all kinds were after him . He hoped he’d be able to reach the second difficulty before more people arrived . However, the enemies responded faster than he had thought they would .

The next day they sent a small army to the top of the mountain . The people were obviously experienced travelers and looked cruel . They attacked Mu Yi without speaking . Mu Yi reacted quickly . He threw out a few evil spirit slaying charms . None of them were able to defend against the attack .

Mu Yi didn’t feel guilty for killing them . He didn’t feel bogged down by anything at all . He was pleased with himself . He felt like a man . He even felt that the strength in his body was increasing . He knew that it was only the beginning . He could tell that these people had come unprepared .

“Church of the Thousand Children, I’ll use your blood to reach the second difficulty,” said Mu Yi .

He was standing on the big stone in front of the Mountain God Temple . The wind stirred the robe he was wearing and his hair fluttered . Mu Yi had finally understood why he couldn’t reach the second difficulty before . He had intended to let nature take its course . Yet, something had been missing .

He had gotten angry and had a moment of clarity . He lacked will . He needed to press forward with an indomitable will to progress . The Church of the Thousand Children was sending people to attack him . Therefore, Mu Yi would use them as a whetstone to sharpen his cultivation .

He was done waiting to break through . He wanted to fight and spill blood . He wanted to kill them all . It was as if he had turned into a demon .
