Yun Luo was familiar with the little white ball of fur. It was Xiaobai who had been missing during the day recently. As for the big black ball of fur, Yun Luo took a closer look and confirmed that it was not from the manor.
Jiang Mu was a step slower, and when he chased after him, the man in black was not only stopped by Xiaobai, but also turned back into beast form.
"Why are you here, sir?" Jiang Mu walked to Yun Luo vigilantly, half blocking Yun Luo in front of him. This was a completely subconscious action. Even though he knew that Yun Luo did not need his protection, and was even more powerful than himself, Jiang Mu would still stand in front of him when he encountered danger.
"I feel a strange energy here, come and take a look." The back mountain of the manor is connected to the forest outside. The barrier that Yun Luo opened only covers the part close to the manor, and does not cover the deeper part.
Unattended for a long time, the back mountain had become a paradise for mutant plants and exotic beasts. Yun Luo was in no hurry to deal with this place, so he let it remain as it was.
Although it is called the back mountain, it is actually not a mountain, but a rolling mountainous area. When the Yun family was still there, there were people specifically taking care of this place. The mutated plants and strange beasts in it were also specially found. Every once in a while, someone would clear out the dangerous creatures.
Yun Luo asked Jiang Mu to come to this place to practice, firstly because it was far away from the manor, so even if there was too much noise, it would not have much impact on the manor; secondly, because there was plenty of spiritual energy here and there were no dangers of being ambushed, it was a good place to practice.
Jiang Mu also felt that it was not a good idea to practice in the yard all the time. On the one hand, he couldn't display his skills, and on the other hand, the yard was too safe. Apart from practicing with Yun Ye, he couldn't find any other way to practice.
After learning about the existence of the back mountain from Yun Luo, he changed his place and practiced in the back mountain.
"What's going on?" Yun Luo raised his chin and his eyes fell on two balls of fur, one big and one small.
"I don't know where this person came from," Jiang Mu said, not daring to let his guard down. "I've had a vague feeling that someone was watching me while I was practicing recently. Xiaobai was here today, so I forced this person out."
After embarking on the path of cultivation, Jiang Mu clearly felt that his five senses became more acute. He trained his spiritual consciousness according to the exercises given by Yun Luo, and integrated the cultivation of spiritual power with his original strength. The effect was unexpectedly good.
At the beginning, after Yun Luo explained to him the pros and cons of cultivating spiritual power, he was ready to start over again. However, he suddenly had an idea and combined the two into one, exploring a cultivation method that was unique to this world.
When Jiang Mu nervously told Yun Luo about this, he felt extremely uneasy. He didn't know whether his approach was right or wrong, and he didn't know whether Yun Luo would be angry because of his unauthorized changes. He heard that in the ancient Earth era, his behavior was considered treason.
Fortunately, Yun Luo was not angry after he knew it.
The big black fur ball is a big black cat, dozens of times larger than Xiaobai. Its black fur is standing up, but it dare not relax at all when facing Xiaobai.
"When was the first time you felt the presence of other people?" Yun Luo asked Jiang Mu.
Jiang Mu frowned and thought for a while: "It seems that this person came here the day after I came here, and he is very good at hiding his presence. If I hadn't made a breakthrough recently, I might not have found this person."
The man in black who suddenly appeared was as powerful as him, but he had a unique way of hiding. He had tried many ways to force this man out these days but failed. It was Xiaobai who suddenly appeared here today and forced the man out.
"If it weren't for Xiaobai, I wouldn't be able to force this person out."
After this person appeared, he attacked him without saying a word. If he had not been vigilant, he might have been defeated.
After forcing the people out, Xiaobai jumped directly onto a tree trunk, obviously not intending to take care of the follow-up.
Jiang Mu realized that this was a good opportunity. He hadn't really fought with anyone since his breakthrough, and since a powerful opponent was coming to him, he naturally wouldn't let it go.
After the fight, Jiang Mu's surprise and confusion grew. Although they were both seventh-level orcs, the power this person unleashed was far higher than that of the seventh level. If he had not cultivated spiritual power at the same time, he would probably have been unable to do anything to this person.
The other party was obviously surprised by his strength and attacked more ruthlessly.
Jiang Mu told Yun Luo what had just happened. Yun Luo stroked his chin thoughtfully: "He was planning to kill you from the beginning, so why did he suddenly run away?"
"It's Xiaobai. After Xiaobai showed his intention to attack, this person knew that he was no match for Xiaobai, so he wanted to escape." Jiang Mu had seen Xiaobai's strength. The higher the level, the greater the gap in strength between each level. The last time Xiaobai attacked, he was at level eight, and now it seems to be even higher than last time.
The seventh and eighth levels seem to be only one level apart, but the gap is huge. Jiang Mu's current strength is higher than that of an ordinary seventh-level player, but if he faces Xiaobai, who is at the eighth level, he is still not strong enough.
“Meow——”
As if responding to Jiang Mu's words, the kitten roared.
His Majesty was in a complicated mood. He blocked all the escape routes of the big black ball of fur, and kept an eye on Yun Luo's movements.
He came to the back mountain today and accidentally discovered that there was someone hiding there. Jiang Mu noticed it but couldn't force the person out. This is Yun Luo's manor. No matter who the person is or what his purpose is, he will not let him go.
After feeling the opponent's strength, he found it was about the same as Jiang Mu's, so he should be able to deal with it. His Majesty used his power to force the person to show up, and then threw the person to Jiang Mu.
He could see that Jiang Mu was the person Yun Luo was training. He did this to help Yun Luo train Jiang Mu and to find a good excuse for his actions. His Majesty sat on the high ground and watched the show with peace of mind.
What he didn't expect was that Yun Luo would come to the back mountain at this time. He originally wanted to get rid of the person before he came, but it was such a coincidence that he ran into Yun Luo.
The big black cat was alert to Xiaobai's movements while looking for a way to escape. When he saw the female next to Jiang Mu, he rolled his eyes.
The only weakness at the moment seems to be that female. As long as they kidnap that female, the man and the cat will definitely be afraid to act rashly.
In a flash, the big cat leaped up, seemingly intending to attack Xiaobai, but turned around and pounced on Yunluo halfway.
"Sir, be careful!"
Yun Luo had been paying attention to the movements of the big black cat and was prepared. Before the big black cat got close, it bumped into an invisible wall.
"Bang--"
The big cat fell heavily to the ground.
Because of a moment of carelessness, His Majesty was tricked. He was furious and jumped in front of the big cat and was about to take action.
"etc--"
Before the kitten could make a move, Yun Luo picked up the cat and used his spiritual power to control the vines around it to tie up the big black cat.
Looking at the vines that were getting closer and closer, the big cat's eyes were filled with fear. This was a level six mutant plant, the vampire vine. Although the vines looked lush and green and seemed docile and harmless, they were actually very difficult to deal with. Once entangled, one would be seriously injured if not killed.
He had discovered before that there were many dangerous mutant plants in this place. He carried special medicine powder with him, so as long as he was careful, he would not disturb these mutant plants.
"What did you do?!"
The vampire vines came towards him with a clear goal, ignoring the other people present. It was not normal in any way. The big cat was shocked and angry. He wanted to escape but had no way. He could only watch himself being tied up by the vines.
"Tell me, what are you doing here?" Yun Luo walked up to the big cat that was tied up in a pile, holding the cat in his arms, and looked down at him from top to bottom.
"Can you control the vampire vines?" Looking at Yun Luo again, the big cat seemed to be looking at a monster. He could feel that the vines that bound him were really just to tie him up. They did not launch any attacks and did not suck his blood. Then he looked at Yun Luo who was walking step by step into the attack range of the vampire vines but was not attacked at all. How could he not understand that the vampire vines were controlled by this person?
His mind raced back to the powerful figures of the empire, but he couldn't find anyone who could control mutant plants as easily as the man before him. Who was this man? And the little animal in his arms—the big cat, having been taught a lesson by reality—naturally wouldn't think it was just an ordinary little animal.
"Now I'm asking you questions. Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't want to speak. Just think of it as a snack for these little vines." Yun Luo stroked the cat nonchalantly, his tone indifferent.
As if responding to Yun Luo's words, the vampire vine that had been quietly cosplaying as a rope slowly began to wriggle. That feeling...
If it were in human form, the big black cat's face would turn green by now.
What's more, how can a vine as thick as an adult's arm be small?
“Meow——”
The kitten clung to Yun Luo's arm, its silver-blue eyes staring at the big black cat without blinking, a silver light flashing in its eyes.
A hint of hesitation flashed in the big black cat's eyes, and it transformed back into human form under the kitten's threatening gaze.
He had no idea why the kitten would make such a request, but he was now a vulnerable position and could only obey orders.
Seeing this, Jiang Mu looked at Xiaobai with a complicated expression. He felt that he should know why Xiaobai made such a request. He was probably afraid that the master would be soft-hearted and bring another furry creature back to the manor. After turning into a human form, this possibility was almost reduced to zero.
Xiaobai shrank back into Yunluo's arms with satisfaction.
"Sir, what should we do with this person?" Jiang Mu asked.
"If Luo doesn't want to waste time, you can leave it to my people." Xiaobai said at the right time.
If Xiaobai hadn't mentioned it, Yunluo would have forgotten that there was a group of capable subordinates in the manor.
"Then I'll have to trouble your people. I wonder if this person who suddenly appeared has any connection with the person who tried to seize the mutant rice last time."
Yun Luo seemed to be talking to Xiao Bai, but in fact, he was always keeping an eye on the man in black. Sure enough, when he heard the words "mutated rice", the man in black's eyes flashed.
Yun Luo calmly withdrew his gaze, feeling relieved.
Wei Ling arrived very quickly. Yun Luo and the others didn't have to wait long before he arrived with his men. They were working part-time at the manor and were wearing the manor's uniform when they came, which made them less solemn and reduced the suspicion of others.
Working beside His Majesty, Wei Ling had long learned to control his curiosity, keep silent, and not say a single word that he shouldn't ask or say.
The man in black was taken away by Wei Ling, and Yun Luo simply walked around the back mountain with the cat to see if there were any other lurking people.
He didn't see anyone, but instead encountered a young alien beast that bumped into him in a daze. Xiaobai immediately felt like he was facing a great enemy.
Feeling the kitten tense in his arms, Yun Luo scratched its chin and jokingly asked, "Do you think you're not as cute as this cub?"
"Meow~"
"You are not allowed to take it back!"
Knowing that the kitten was very jealous, Yun Luo resisted the urge to pet the cub. He just thought that if he came again next time, he would not bring Xiaobai with him. If he brought Xiaobai with him, he would have to consider Xiaobai's feelings.
"If you don't take it back, I will have you." Yun Luo comforted him familiarly.
"Meow~"
His Majesty felt comfortable being rubbed, but he did not let down his guard. It was no longer a secret that he had fainted and seen the furry creature unable to walk. If he had known Yun Luo would come, he would not have given that man the chance to transform into a beast.
Yun Luo has enough furries to be around, and he will never allow other furries to take his place.
He listed this place in the back mountain as a key defense area. The aura of the ninth-level strong man bypassed Yun Luo and spread to the surroundings. The nearby strange beasts could not avoid it and ran in the opposite direction of the man and the cat.
In the second half of the journey, Yun Luo naturally didn't see a single furry creature.
[Host, they have arrived at Somir Planet.]
Yun Luo paused while buttoning his shirt: [Specific address?]
[Host, please wait.] After a moment, the system sent the address to Yun Luo.
Yun Luo looked at the address sent by the system and frowned. This place was not far from the manor. Not only that, it was also very close to the place where he met Xiaobai.
"Master, the fish are ashore." Wei Ling changed his clothes and camouflaged his face. He was also wearing black combat uniform, but he gave people a bandit-like feeling. The same was true for the other people around him. They were disguised as arms dealers operating in the gray area.
"Yeah." The black-haired man with his back to Wei Ling turned around. If Yun Luo was here, he would recognize that this was Yan Su, whom he had met several times.
Apart from towns, most of the land on Somir is covered by mutated plants. Human settlements only account for 5% of the planet. The vast uninhabited areas are a great place to conduct some unknown transactions.
"Why should we listen to each other and come to this place to trade?"
"We just need to execute the decisions made by the higher-ups. Don't ask too many questions. Sometimes the less you know, the better."
No one noticed that in the darkness, where the minions gathered, a faint green signal light flashed and quickly disappeared.
The only source of light was obscured by dark clouds, and the forest fell into darkness. A man in a black robe walked out of the cabin. For high-level orcs, darkness could not block their vision.
"How much longer?" A hoarse voice came from behind. Before the man in black robe could answer, the rumbling sound of a car horn gave the answer.
"gentlemen?"
The enemy was right in front of him, and Jiang Mu could hardly control himself. He saw more than one member of the "Blood Lion" in the crowd.
"Don't worry, someone is coming."
As soon as Yun Luo finished speaking, Jiang Mu felt the vibration. He calmed his mind and continued to pay attention to the movements outside.
In order to avoid being discovered, the two did not get too close. Yun Luo extended some of his spiritual power to keep an eye on the movements over there. He was looking for the person who wanted to capture Xiaobai.
Yun Luo noticed that the two groups had already met, and while both sides' attention was on each other, he brought Jiang Mu closer.
"I wonder why Mr. Yan chose to conduct the transaction in this place?" The black-robed man's voice was cold and mechanical, giving people a sense of oppression for no reason.
"I'm just on vacation here and I don't feel like going too far," Yan Su said as he slowly adjusted his cuffs, glancing sideways. "I'm saying, you're not showing your true face, and even your voice is fake. Aren't you being too sincere?"
"I never do business with people who are not sincere enough." After saying that, Yan Su turned around and prepared to get in the car.
"Wait, we have already paid the deposit, Mr. Yan. Aren't you afraid of what others will say if you regret it now?" The man in black robe stepped forward to stop him, but was stopped by Wei Ling who had been guarding Yan Su.
"Don't be rude to your master."
"Threatening me?" As the black-robed man wished, Yan Su stopped and said, "Then why don't you see who will suffer the greater loss between us?"
"Okay!" The man turned off the voice changer and revealed his true face. "Is Mr. Yan satisfied with this?"
He didn't dare to give up this business, nor did he dare to really anger Yan Su. Everyone knew that Yan Su was willful and could turn against anyone at any time, but there were still a lot of people who were eager to do business with him.
Yan Su's surname is only "Yan" to the outside world, which has been changed to "Mr. Yan". No one knows where Mr. Yan came from or what his specific identity is. His whereabouts have always been a mystery. All we know is that the power behind this man is extremely powerful, and it is best not to provoke him easily.
Under the divine consciousness, nothing could escape his gaze. The dark clouds were blown away, and the cold light once again fell on the ground. Yun Luo also clearly "saw" the trading partner of the "Blood Lion".
——Yan Su.
"Sir, should we wait for those people to leave?" There were only two of them, and although Jiang Mu knew that Yun Luo was very powerful, he was still worried.
The intense emotions he felt when he first saw his enemy had passed, and his rationality had returned. Jiang Mu couldn't help but feel a little worried. The other party was obviously well prepared, while there were only two people on their side.
Yun Luo did not answer. He was wondering why Yan Su was here. It was the planet chief who personally led people to the manor. Logically, he should not have colluded with these people.
[Host, they sent a message saying they have arrived at Somir and asked where we are.]
Yun Luo suppressed all the thoughts in his mind and said, "Let's deal with another matter first."
The people who came to hand over Xiaobai were not far from here. The leader was a man with a scar on his face. He was extremely reluctant to be assigned this task. He thought that it was just a strange beast that didn't know how to live or die, but he had to come here in person.
"It's time, why haven't you come yet?"
"I've urged them. They said they found the wrong location and will be there soon."
"A bunch of idiots!" Scarface cursed angrily.
"They dare to make our boss wait. I think they are desperate for their lives."
"Boss, what exactly is this thing we are handing over?"
"It's said to be a high-level exotic beast cub. The higher-ups want it, but I don't know exactly what species it is."
"Even if the level is high, there's no need for the boss to personally take action. Isn't it just a strange beast?"
"Okay, stop talking." Scarface's expression softened slightly after hearing his younger brother's compliment. "We'll just do the tasks assigned by our superiors. Don't talk too much."
The sound gradually became quieter.
"In front, sir."
Yun Luo deliberately made some noises, and Scarface stood up, looking unhappy: "What's wrong with you? You even got the address wrong. Give me the things quickly."
If he moves quickly, he can still get back before the situation over there is over.
There was no answer in the empty forest, only the sound of approaching footsteps.
"Big, big brother..." A younger brother opened his eyes in fear and pointed tremblingly behind Scarface.
"What..." Scarface turned back impatiently, the rest of the words were stuck in his throat.
The forest was silent. The younger brother he brought with him was lying on the ground unconscious. He turned around suddenly and saw that the younger brother who had just been trembling and reminding him that something was wrong was also lying on the ground, and his life or death was unknown.
In the vast forest, it seemed as if there was only herself and the approaching man, whose face she could not see clearly.
"You, who are you? Where are those people?" At this point, Scarface knew that they had fallen into a trap. If this was someone else's plan, then what about the deal?
He wanted to send a message, but the next moment he fell to the ground, and the unfinished message lay quietly in the draft box, and would never be sent out again.
007 quickly hacked into the other party's computer, deleted the unfinished message from Scarface, rewrote "Goods received, mission accomplished", and clicked send.
[Host, done.]
The two returned to the transaction location.
"Sir, something is wrong."
Yun Luo stopped and he also felt the energy fluctuations coming from the transaction location.
"The two sides are fighting." Such a strong energy fluctuation can only mean that the two sides are fighting.
Before they got close, Yun Luo and the others saw a mess, filled with smoke, and the collision of hot weapons sparked brilliant sparks.
"Sir?" Jiang Mu was a little at a loss when he saw this scene. He came here for revenge, but now his enemy was being chased and beaten.
"I guess the negotiations broke down." From what I'd just observed, the man known as "Mr. Yan" wasn't exactly in the best of spirits. "Of course, it's also possible that he never intended to close the deal from the start."
As for which party didn't want the deal to be concluded, Yun Luo didn't know.
"Who are you?" The man in black robe who was trying to escape under cover happened to bump into Yun Luo and the other man.
The man in black robe was followed by a small group of people. Jiang Mu recognized that one of them was the leader of the "Blood Lion". He stood in front of Yun Luo with a frown on his face.
The man in black robe just wanted to leave quickly, so he winked at the people around him, saying that since someone had seen their presence, they could not stay.
The people on the black-robed man's side attacked without saying a word. Jiang Mu was prepared and stood in front of Yun Luo to prevent any attacks from falling on him.
These people couldn't do anything to Jiang Mu for the time being. The black-robed man's face became more and more ugly. It was just Somir Star. How could there be another strong man who was so difficult to deal with?
People with serious thoughts inevitably like to think too much. At this moment, the man in black robe looked more and more and felt that the two people who stopped them were deliberately arranged by Mr. Yan.
He asked how he could escape from the enemy's tight defense, and it turned out that they were waiting for him here.
No, he can't die here.
Seeing that Jiang Mu was protecting the female behind him tightly, the man in black found an opportunity and attacked Yun Luo directly.
Realizing the black-robed man's intention, several people put a lot of effort into entangled Jiang Mu, not giving him the chance to turn around and save people.
Jiang Mu couldn't break free for a moment. He turned around and saw Yun Luo nodded to him imperceptibly, then concentrated on dealing with the person in front of him.
His desire for revenge was not as strong now, he just wanted to get rid of these people quickly.
The black-robed man rushed towards Yun Luo with a determined smile. He thought he would see fear and terror on this female face, but all he saw was calmness.
This isn't right. Why is this female so calm? The man in the black robe sensed something was amiss, but the situation had already been created. The arrow was on the string and had to be released. It was impossible to stop.
And he didn't intend to miss this opportunity. No matter what was wrong with this female, as long as she was gone, everything wrong would no longer exist.
The man in black robe was determined to take this opportunity to kill Yun Luo, and he did not hold back at all. Because of the vague uneasiness in his heart, he wanted to get rid of this man quickly.
Yun Luo did not dodge or evade. When the man in black robe was about to attack him, he rolled up his spiritual power. Suddenly, a silver-white blade of light fell from the sky and hit the man in black robe directly.
The man in black robe was knocked away and hit a thick tree trunk. He covered his chest and coughed up blood.
Yun Luo stopped, looked up into the air, and met a pair of deep silver-blue eyes.
"Is the young boss okay?" Yan Su only felt his heart fall back into his chest at this moment. When he saw Yun Luo not dodging or evading the attack of the man in black robe, his heart almost stopped.
At that moment, my mind went blank and I moved subconsciously.
Yun Luo was out of danger, and Yan Su's numb mind gradually recovered. He wanted to go forward to check if Yun Luo was injured, but his face suddenly changed when he heard Yun Luo's cold tone.
He said, "Should I call you Yan Su? Or... Xiao Bai?"
Yun Luo leaned against the tree behind him with his arms folded, his eyes growing colder and colder.
