Fantasy: Overturning the Ancient Era from the Start

Zhou Mu transmigrated to another world twice. Standing in a familiar place for the second time, Zhou Mu was incredibly excited. Having defied fate and changed his destiny, he became the cornerstone...

Chapter Forty-Four: Betrayal

"What exactly happened?"

At this moment, Mo Zhong frowned, stepped forward, grabbed Mo Ziqiao by the collar, and said angrily.

My heart suddenly felt weak.

It seems that something is gradually getting out of control.

Mo Ziqiao stammered and didn't utter a single word for a long time; perhaps the fear in his eyes spoke volumes.

To frighten a powerful expert at the Divine Realm to this extent, one must have encountered an incredibly terrifying opponent.

Inside the main hall, everyone who witnessed this scene showed expressions of confusion, but then, fear spread among them.

If Mo Gan's actions were accidental, then Mo Ziqiao's current behavior is inevitable.

"I'll go and see for myself."

From his high position, Mo Yuntian spoke.

Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze sharpened and then fell on Mo Yuntian. The panicked crowd seemed to be soothed at this moment and calmed down.

Outside the palace.

Zhou Mu watched the crowd file out, his expression unchanged.

"Zhou Mu".

Mo Yuntian squinted as he sized up Zhou Mu.

He was immediately and thoroughly shocked.

A storm raged within me.

This guy actually possessed the same oppressive aura as Zhou Mu, meaning that even if he made a move, he could at most only manage a draw with Zhou Mu.

A Saint-level expert who is only twenty years old is unheard of, not only in the Desolate Heaven Domain, but also in the entire Nine Provinces Continent.

A prodigy... truly a prodigy.

"It is I."

Zhou Mu said calmly.

He had already withdrawn his supernatural powers and looked at Mo Yuntian with a mocking expression.

He witnessed firsthand the change in Mo Yuntian's expression, from initial indifference to his current solemnity; it was a truly remarkable display in just a few short moments.

"Was it you who said you would slaughter my entire Northern Wilderness Demon Clan?"

Mo Yuntian said, his tone already revealing a hint of murderous intent.

Zhou Mu nodded honestly and said, "My original words were that if I didn't see my men within ten minutes, I would go on a killing spree. Obviously, you didn't take my words to heart."

He took a step forward.

The invisible wall rippled violently. He took a step back, looked up at Mo Yuntian, pointed to the protective shield in front of him, and said, "Did you think you were safe hiding inside? You cowards."

These words immediately caused an uproar among the elders behind Mo Yuntian.

Their gazes all fell on Zhou Mu, filled with pity.

Given Mo Yuntian's arrogance, this blatant insult would undoubtedly enrage him, and the grass on the grave of the person who insulted him last time is already three meters high.

"My Northern Wilderness Demon Clan is willing to submit to the Central Continent."

Just when everyone thought Mo Yuntian was about to go on a killing spree, he suddenly knelt down on one knee and said.

"What's going on? Has the clan chief backed down?"

The elders were startled, seemingly not yet having reacted.

For a Saint-level expert to bow his head is an extremely rare occurrence, especially for someone as proud and arrogant as Mo Yuntian; it is a rarity in the world.

At this moment, no matter how piercing the gazes behind him were, Mo Yuntian's expression remained calm.

Having reached this level, he clearly understood that Zhou Mu's power now far surpassed his own. At this point, he had no choice but to bow his head, as for the humiliation...

Anyway, it's not like Yang Yun, the sect leader of Xuantian Sect, hasn't done it before.

They will seek revenge when they have gained sufficient power.

Zhou Mu hadn't expected Mo Yuntian to be so decisive, and the harsh words he had been preparing for so long now had no way to be used.

He was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening.

"Then let me see your sincerity."

Upon hearing this, Mo Yuntian nodded slightly, then waved his hand. A dazzling burst of spiritual light flashed, and then the mountain-protecting formation disappeared.

"very good."

Zhou Mu smiled.

He hadn't expected things to be so easy; he had thought he would have to go through a lot of hard work.

At this moment, Ye Mujiu and Wang Qing'er were also brought up.

"Xiao Jiu".

Seeing that Xiao Jiu was unharmed, Zhou Mu finally felt relieved.

Upon seeing Zhou Mu, the little girl rushed into his arms and cried incessantly, which broke Zhou Mu's heart.

It took a lot of coaxing to calm him down.

Wang Qing'er, covered in blood, stood silently to the side, pursed her lips, and said, "So delicate."

"Then don't be so delicate later," Zhou Mu said with a smile.

"Hmph, it's none of your business." There was a hint of loneliness in Wang Qing'er's eyes.

She hugged herself alone, feeling somewhat lonely.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared beside Wang Qing'er. Wang Qing'er turned her head sharply, and in the next instant, with her mind on high alert, she struck out with a palm.

"Silly girl, it's me."

Xi Tianqiu smiled helplessly, hugged Wang Qing'er into his arms, his eyes full of heartache.

"Waaaaah..."

Upon smelling the familiar scent, Wang Qing'er's grievances and suffering, mixed with tears, welled up instantly.

The crying was suppressed.

...

Mo Yuntian was still kneeling on one knee on the ground.

Even as Mo Chong approached, he remained upright.

He seemed more like a loyal... slave.

Mo Zhong sighed, gazing at the harmonious scene not far away, and said helplessly, "Clan leader, is this really all we can do?"

Mo Yuntian grinned, a hint of bloodlust in his eyes. He looked up and glanced sideways at Mo Zhong. "Who said that?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his gaze fell on Zhou Mu.

The latter's aura had disappeared. According to his estimation, he was only at the level of a mortal immortal. It seemed that the previous fluctuations were indeed caused by external force.
