Xu Mu and the others stood there, waiting quietly.

Finally, two men in black robes appeared within Xu Mu's perception range.

He immediately led a few people and hid in the opposite direction.

Before long, the two men in black robes headed towards the manor on the mountaintop.

Song Nuanyang looked at Xu Mu and asked, "Are you sure they are from the Jiuli tribe?"

"I'm not sure. Not everyone who can play with insects is from the Jiuli tribe, like me."

After a moment's thought, Xu Mu smiled and said, "Let's go back."

He wanted absolute safety. If Xia Chuan really colluded with the alien race, he might turn against him in the future.

Then all his efforts this time were in vain?

So he decided to go there again.

The others around didn't say anything.

As for Meng Wanyue and Dai Xingluo, they were eager to show off, but this time they didn't even have a chance to make a move.

The group returned to the manor, where the guards, upon seeing Xu Mu, dared not stop them again.

He was inside just now and witnessed firsthand how strong this man's senior sister was.

Xu Mu led the group back into the ruins.

He immediately used his senses to scan his surroundings and discovered that Xia Chuan and two men in black robes were walking deeper into the area.

Xu Mu said to the people around him, "Don't let these people make any rash moves."

After he finished speaking, he quickly followed, always keeping a distance of several hundred meters from Xia Chuan and the others.

At this distance, Xu Mu could hear their conversation.

The people at the entrance to the ruins originally wanted to report the news, but were stopped by four women.

"You've seen our strength just now. Don't move, or you'll die."

Dai Xingluo looked around with a smile.

It was clearly a beautiful woman's smile, but everyone present felt a chill run down their spines.

...

"A heretical sect? I've never heard of it."

A man in black robes ahead shook his head slightly upon hearing Xia Chuan's question.

Judging from the voice, it was an old man.

"Just now, they broke into our sect and severely injured the Grand Elder."

Xia Chuan looked at the black-robed man beside him, "Senior, I have been stuck in the mid-stage of the Transcendent Realm for many years, and I am now eager to enter the late stage."

"To be honest, your Demon Sword Sect only has one expert, and the rare and precious materials you need are the dream of countless people. I certainly can't give them to you for free."

The man in black robes said with a smile.

"What exactly does the senior want me to do? Why would he give me such rare and precious materials?"

Xia Chuan asked in a deep voice.

"I know of an inner realm, but it requires a master at the Transcendent Realm. If you accompany me there and help me obtain the treasure, I will give you the rare and precious materials you need."

The old man in black robes suddenly stopped. "I mean what I say."

"Senior shouldn't use the same trick as last time, in the Valley of Ten Thousand Races, to lure me in and then kill me."

Xia Chuan asked with a smile.

"If it's the same as the Valley of Ten Thousand Races, why would I need to find you separately? I only need to reveal the location of the inner world, and plenty of experts will go in to explore."

The old man in black robes turned around after saying this, "Of course, you don't have to go. I won't force you."

"Wow! Everything has its risks, but I believe I will get along well with my seniors."

Xia Chuan nodded emphatically.

"In that case, I'll be going now. Two days later, go to this address, and we'll go together then."

The old man in black robes took out a slip of paper from his body and handed it to Xia Chuan.

He then turned and left.

Xu Mu stood there pondering whether he should make a move that would alert the enemy.
