Zhang Mu was wrapped in the blood vine lotus and naturally felt very comfortable. He observed the movements of the War Horse King as if he was watching a performance.

The ten wind blades looked fancy but were filled with murderous intent. In a flash, they had invaded to within two meters of the War Horse King.

However, the War Horse King still looked unhurried, as if he had been waiting for the wind blade to take shape for a long time.

Sure enough, when they were one meter close to the King of War Horses, all the wind blades seemed to be restrained by something, preventing them from moving forward.

Large and small space cracks appeared within the area around the War Horse King. The dark gaps slowly opened, and the powerful suction force directly stopped the wind blade that had soared to its limit speed.

The wind blades wanted to escape, but how could they escape when they were being targeted? Even the area around the space cracks became dark, which meant that any light that was close to them could not dodge and was sucked in.

Even at the speed of light, it was impossible to escape the power of the space crack. The wind blade struggled with the suction for only one second before it completely lost power and was sucked into the corresponding space crack, disappearing without a trace.

This time it took a full two seconds for the space crack created by the War Horse King to slowly close.

This means that the space cracks within a one-meter radius around it are stronger and last longer.

Zhang Mu, who was hiding nearby, witnessed the entire process of the powerful wind blade disappearing without a trace. Now it was as if nothing had happened.

The obsidian worm was also a little stunned, as if it couldn't believe that the wind blade it had carefully prepared was destroyed so easily.

However, the King of War Horses did not look relaxed either. He just showed signs of weakness but now he was breathing heavily.

It's tired too!

Its mental strength and the energy in its body have been basically used up. If it were to be attacked again, it would probably not be able to withstand it.

"I underestimated your two friends. They are more threatening to me than those four people I once thought were the strongest among humans."

Zhang Mu asked disdainfully, "What about me? How does my strength compare to theirs?"

The War Horse King looked at Zhang Mu with a very serious look. He had already untied the vine cage of the Blood Vine Lotus and jumped to the ground, waiting for the War Horse King's answer.

"But in terms of your exposed strength, you are not as good as them. However, the sense of crisis you give me is far greater than

Although I don't know where these two people came from, I think you must have kept them for yourself."

Zhang Mu smiled without commenting, and quietly looked at the War Horse King who turned around.

At this time, Hachimu had already stood up and picked up the huge axe that he had dropped aside. He instantly realized that his mind had been controlled by the King of War Horses, and his old face turned red.

But he suddenly remembered that he didn't know whether Zhang Mu was alive or dead, so he hurriedly looked around, but found that Zhang Mu was looking at the War Horse King as if nothing had happened. He rubbed his eyes violently. He wondered if he was still trapped in the War Horse King's illusion, otherwise Zhang Mu, who was unconscious just now, would not show any sign of fatigue now, but be full of energy.

Ha Chimu came carefully to Zhang Mu's side with the giant axe in hand, staring at the War Horse King nervously, holding the giant axe horizontally, fearing that it would attack him if he disagreed with it. This was also the first time he was so close to the War Horse King, but only by getting so close could he feel the War Horse King's momentum more intuitively.

Zhang Mu patted Hachimu's shoulder and said, "Brother, relax. The War Horse King has no ill intentions."

"No ill intentions? What about what happened just now, Brother Zhang Mu?" Ha Chimu asked with some confusion. He looked at Zhang Mu and then at the King of War Horses, seeming a little puzzled.

How come he was hurting Zhang Mu just now but now he has made peace with her.

The War Horse King folded his wings and returned to his original appearance. He slowly walked back to the shade of the tree and began to rest as if no one was around. He never looked at Zhang Mu and the others again.

At this time, Qiqidar and the Obsidian Worm also surrounded Zhang Mu and the others. Zhang Mu explained the whole story and everyone was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. It turned out to be a false alarm.

"Brother, it turns out that the king of war horses wanted to fight, and you cooperated with it. We thought you were no longer capable, so we rushed over in a hurry."

Ha Chimu was obviously a little dissatisfied with Zhang Mu. Thinking back to what happened just now, it was really embarrassing. Thinking about how he kept chopping at the air, he felt so embarrassed.

Zhang Mu apologized repeatedly and smiled helplessly, "Brother, there's nothing I can do about it. I really didn't cooperate with it at that time. I couldn't even move my tongue. The king of war horses wanted to fight with you, and I couldn't stop him."

Hachimu saw that the War Horse King had his back to them and glared at him fiercely, but did not dare to say anything. He felt too powerless when he was completely suppressed just now.

At this time, Yuan Rui jumped off the obsidian worm's carapace.

As he spoke, he silently walked to Zhang Mu and infused healing energy into his body.

Zhang Mu held Yuan Rui's wrist, trying to get her to move away. He smiled and said, "Silly girl, my mental strength has been affected a little, but my body is fine. You have exhausted your mental strength just now, why don't you rest well?"

Yuan Rui still didn't say anything, and continued to infuse healing energy into Zhang Mu's body stubbornly. Streams of warm current slowly flowed from Yuan Rui's palm into Zhang Mu's body, repairing the previous injuries.

The second-level healing energy was indeed powerful. Although Zhang Mu’s injuries were not serious, it directly raised his energy to the fullest state.

"Okay, okay, everything is ready now. Any more would be a waste."

Zhang Mu touched Yuan Rui's head. Yuan Rui seemed to realize that Zhang Mu's physical condition had recovered to the best, so she withdrew her hand. Zhang Mu still held her in his arms and stroked her head gently.

"Ahem, pay attention to the impact."

Ha Chimu coughed dryly a few times, obviously disgusted with this kind of behavior of showing off love in front of the old bachelor.

At this time, Qi Qidaer came up with a face full of shame and said slowly, "Old Ha, Brother Zhang Mu, I didn't help at all just now. Seeing how you looked after entering, Old Ha, I stayed outside the mist realm. Brother Zhang Mu, please take back this reward. I, Qi Qidaer, feel unworthy of it."

After saying that, Qiqidar handed over the Epoch Card containing 5,000 Yuan Crystals with both hands.

Zhang Mu did not say anything, but took it with both hands. For such a straightforward man, if he did not take it back, it would make him feel uneasy in his dormitory. Zhang Mu smiled and said, "I have taken back the Yuanjing. City Lord Qiqidar does not need to mind it. You are an evolver who cultivates the physical body, so it will not play any role even if you come in."

Seeing that Zhang Mu had no intention of blaming him, Qi Qidaer breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhang Mu accept the Epoch Card. But he suddenly thought of something and said through gritted teeth, "It was Su Rui and Huang Yan who saw that the situation was not good and left directly."

"Escape? I was wondering why I didn't see those two people. As the lord of a branch city, he actually did such a thing. It's really a shame. Brother Zhang Mu, come on, I will teach them a lesson for you and help you get the Yuan Jing back."

Zhang Mu sneered and said slowly, "There's no need to teach you a lesson. It would affect your competition, brother Akagi. But my Yuanjing is not so easy to swallow."

"I'm going to make them pay back everything they paid for, with interest."
