Qingyun Peak
In the dark room, Zhou Mu nodded in satisfaction after hearing Fang Yun's report. However, after hearing the next few sentences, his expression changed slightly, and he looked at him and said, "Lin Yang is dead?"
Fang Yun nodded.
The face was hidden in the thin mist, and the expression on it was not visible.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Yes, after avenging my great grudge, I even exchanged a few words with the waiter before disappearing. By the time I found him, he was already dead."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Mu couldn't help but show a hint of sadness. After a moment, he shook his head, clearing away these unnecessary emotions.
He said, "So be it. Everyone has their own fate. Since I can't change his final outcome, then... that's all I can do."
In his previous life, Lin Yang was killed by the elders of the Cangyu Holy Land the moment the Heavenly Saint Palace was destroyed. He didn't even survive to the end, let alone watch the Cangyu Holy Land be destroyed.
Now, at least the original regrets have been made up for, and the departure is a perfect ending. Sometimes, this can be considered a kind of happiness.
Fang Yun lingered for a moment and then disappeared. At this moment, Lu Shan walked in from outside, looking somewhat sad. Clearly, he also knew about Lin Yang's tragic news.
Upon seeing Zhou Mu, he asked, "Are those all true?"
Zhou Mu nodded and said, "It shouldn't be a lie. Fang Yun told me that himself."
After receiving a definite answer, Lu Shan's expression turned somewhat solemn. He said, "Alas, I originally intended to form a good relationship, but now it seems that things are unpredictable."
After a moment of reflection, he prepared to leave, but Zhou Mu stopped him, asking, "What are you planning to do about Zhang Ling'er?"
"Shouldn't I be asking you that?" Lu Shan asked instinctively.
"You are the owner of Wentian Tower, why are you asking me?" Zhou Mu asked, looking puzzled.
"Come on, that's what they say to the outside world, but in private, I'm just a puppet in name only. You're the one who actually controls Wentian Tower." Lu Shan's tone was a little sour when he said this.
Both are time travelers and both possess cheat codes, so why is there such a big difference?
Only now did he realize that the Wentian Tower was nothing more than a fortune-telling place. If it was to do something of equal exchange, such as avenging Lin Yang this time, Zhou Mu's Black Ice Platform would still have to take action.
“We have a cooperative relationship, and there is absolutely no use of puppets, understand?” Zhou Mu sighed upon hearing this and continued, “Moreover, as two people from another world with the same identity, it is only right that we look after each other. In my eyes, we are good brothers and good friends.”
There was some truth to what he said.
Zhou Mu spoke these words from the bottom of his heart. In this life, it is rare to find a true friend. He found that during his time with Lu Shan, the guy was particularly compatible with his temperament. Sometimes, the two were like close friends, sharing everything with each other.
Lu Shan fell silent.
To be honest, he was somewhat moved.
After a moment of silence, he stepped forward and hugged Zhou Mu.
"I'll go to the Asking Heaven Tower later to have my fortune told. It's a cheat system that appeared in a novel, so the Asking Heaven Tower must be quite powerful."
Lu Shan's eyes were sparkling as he said this.
About fifteen minutes later, the divination finally yielded a result.
Lu Shan stood up from the crystal ball that was shimmering with lightning. His limbs were a little stiff, so he stretched them, then calmly looked at Zhou Mu. He said, "The people from the Divine Realm will arrive in three days, but..."
"But what?"
Hearing the change in tone, Zhou Mu was stunned and hurriedly asked.
Lu Shan said, "Just now, Zhang Ling'er committed suicide..."
"What!"
Zhou Muteng stood up abruptly, his face full of shock.
He had promised Xiao Jiu that he would protect Zhang Ling'er, but not long after, news of Zhang Ling'er's sudden misfortune came, as if he had been slapped hard across the face out of nowhere.
That's a blatant slap in the face.
But at this moment, he couldn't care less about all that. He couldn't imagine how heartbroken Xiao Jiu would be after hearing this news.
Although they had a bit of a falling out, he knew that Xiao Jiu was a sentimental person, with a sharp tongue but a soft heart, and he figured that Zhang Ling'er still held an important place in her heart.
Seeing Zhou Mu's state, Lu Shan became anxious and quickly shook his head, saying, "No, no, no... don't worry, Zhang Ling'er has been rescued."
After calming down, Zhou Mu continued, "Zhang Tianjian discovered it in time, and his residence has several high-level physicians all year round, so he received timely treatment. Fortunately, it was a false alarm."
"That's good then."
Zhou Mu nodded, and a smile finally appeared on his face.
Things are going well, at least things are slowing down.
"There's something I need to discuss with you," Lu Shan said after a moment's hesitation.
"explain."
Zhou Mudao.
“The Cangyu Holy Land is currently under the leadership of Lu Yangzi and is barely clinging to life. Should we give them the final blow?” Lu Shan asked.
In fact, what he meant was to ask Zhou Mu to spare the Cangyu Holy Land and not to go so far as to exterminate them. After all, in his eyes, one force attacking and annihilating another was nothing more than a manifestation of the law of the jungle.
Besides, this world is one where strength reigns supreme, the strong prey on the weak, and the strong survive while the weak are eliminated. It's just the most normal thing, isn't it?
Moreover, since they accepted Lin Yang's benefits and helped him get to this point, they had already done more than enough. Going further by using forces from outside this world to disrupt its order would be going too far.
Zhou Mu understood Lu Shan's implication. He smiled and said, "If you knew what they did, I believe you wouldn't say that."
He stretched out his palm, and a tremendous power surged forth in an instant, the milky white spiritual energy instantly enveloping Lu Shan's mind.
Lu Shan felt a gentle spiritual energy enter his body, and then he realized that the world before him had changed.
In the dark world, a blood-red light shrouded everything like a thin mist, and a pungent smell filled the air.
It smells of blood.
It's very strong.
It smelled like the stench of countless corpses piled up together.
It's terrifying.
He knew that Zhou Mu was behind all of this, so he wasn't afraid.
He followed the instructions and walked forward.
At the end of the blood-red river, he saw mountains of corpses, the blood-red aura clearly visible, and a pale red hue appearing in the mist.
How many people must have been killed to cause this situation?!
Lu Shan's heart trembled violently.
Then came a look of horror.
Could it be that these are all sins committed by the Azure Feather Holy Land?
Suddenly, a large furnace appeared not far away, with eerie bones floating out of it.
Around the stove, a number of people sat cross-legged, their bodies twisted in a strange arc, looking quite terrifying.
One by one, the corpses, resembling the walking dead, were slowly walking and jumping into the furnace.
The fire under the stove burned even brighter.
