Ouyang Chong paused visibly, but soon pretended nothing had happened and walked out of the mountain gate.
"Take one more step and you will die!" Li Mu said coldly.
Ouyang Chong's body trembled, and he turned around and said to Li Mu with a bitter face: "Senior, I really have no intention of provoking the Wuji Sect! I just want to collect the body for my grandson."
It was obvious that Ouyang Chong had already recognized Li Mu before, but he was still trying to get away with it.
"Really? If you're collecting corpses, why are you making such a big fuss? If someone doesn't know, they would think you're having a wedding at home." Li Mu said jokingly.
Ouyang Chong felt very aggrieved when he heard this, but he still gritted his teeth, took out a dagger from his bosom, and directly cut off his left arm. He said to Li Mu: "Senior, I offended you today. This is my apology. I, Ouyang Chong, swear that I will lead the Ouyang family to move out of this area within three days!"
"Do you consider this as an apology? Haha, your arm was cut off, but I didn't get any benefit at all, right?" Li Mu said lightly.
Ouyang Chong took a deep breath, then took out a Xumi bag from his arms and said, "This is the food that my Ouyang family has accumulated during this period of time, a total of 3,000 tons. I hope you will accept it."
Li Mu shook his head and said, "Not enough. Besides, if I kill you, these things will still be mine."
"This..." Ouyang Chong was speechless for a moment. What Li Mu said was indeed correct. Their Ouyang family did the same thing when they looted the nearby sects.
"I'll give you one chance. If you can seize it, I'll spare your life." Li Mu said calmly.
Ouyang Chong had already lost hope, but when he heard what Li Mu said, he was immediately shocked and said quickly, "Senior, please speak!"
"Have you ever seen this sword?" Li Mu asked, taking out the blueprint of the extraordinary weapon. After all, the Ouyang family had recently robbed so many sects, so they should have known a lot of clues. However, Li Mu did not hold out too much hope. After all, Kunlun was too big, far from the territory of Kunlun before the two worlds merged. This was a new Kunlun formed by the expansion of an entire small world!
However, when Ouyang Chong saw the blueprint, he was immediately overjoyed, nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice: "Senior, I have seen this sword!"
"Hmm~?" Li Mu raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Really?"
Ouyang Chong asked anxiously: "How dare I deceive you, Senior?"
"If you dare to lie, you will know how lucky it is to die." Li Mu said.
"Senior, this sword is called Canghai, and it is a medium-grade magic weapon. I wonder if what I said is right?" Ouyang Chong asked confidently. However, he was a little uneasy in his heart. For someone like Li Mu who was incomparable to even a saint, it was indeed unbelievable to find a medium-grade magic weapon.
"Where is this sword now?" Li Mu asked in a deep voice. He knew that Ouyang Chong had probably really seen this sword. After all, it was impossible to know the grade of this sword just by looking at the drawing. If it was confirmed to be correct, it would be a pleasant surprise.
Hearing what Li Mu said, Ouyang Chong finally felt relieved. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Li Mu, "It's in the treasure house of my Ouyang family. Senior, I'll go get it for you right away."
"No need, just lead the way!" said Li Mu.
"Senior, this..." Ouyang Chong looked a little embarrassed.
"I said, if you help me find what I want, I will spare your life. Of course, this also includes the other people in your Ouyang family." Li Mu said lightly. With his status, he naturally wouldn't speak like a fart and play word games with others.
For example, "I said I would let you go, but that doesn't mean my brothers will forgive you", or "I said I would spare your life, but that doesn't mean I will spare other people in your family."
Li Mu disdains to do such a thing!
"Thank you, senior. Please follow me." Ouyang Chong was overjoyed, and then happily took Li Mu and others to the mountain gate of his Ouyang family.
When the Ouyang family members saw their ancestor humbly leading a few outsiders towards the mountain gate of their home, they looked at each other in bewilderment. Among the people who came, they knew Yan Qing, the deputy leader of Wuji Sect. As neighbors of Wuji Sect, they naturally knew him, but didn’t the ancestor go to Wuji Sect to avenge the second elder? What was going on now?
However, seeing their ancestor's extremely humble attitude, they understood that this was not something they could interfere with. When Ouyang Chong arrived at the mountain gate, the disciple guarding the gate hurriedly opened the door and bowed slightly to respectfully welcome the ancestor's return.
"Father, what's going on?" A middle-aged man hurried down the mountain and asked in confusion when he saw the situation in front of him. This man was Ouyang Changsheng, the head of the Ouyang family. He had been the head of the family since Ouyang Chong stepped down.
"Senior, you are here, why don't you pay your respects quickly!" Ouyang Chong shouted.
"What senior? Father, Hao'er is your most beloved grandson! No matter what, you shouldn't let the murderer of your grandson stand in front of you!" Ouyang Changsheng said indignantly. Ouyang Hao is Ouyang Chong's most beloved grandson and also Ouyang Changsheng's only son. How could he not be anxious?
"How dare you! When is it your turn to question what I do?" Ouyang Chong was furious. He had always been very confident in his son's performance as the patriarch over the years, so why was he so lacking in judgment today?
"Take me to get the things quickly. Otherwise, haha, my promise is not your golden ticket to immunity from death." Li Mu said impatiently.
Ouyang Chong was startled when he heard this, and quickly apologized: "Senior, I will take you there right away, please don't be angry."
At this moment, Ouyang Changsheng suddenly saw his father's empty sleeves. He was immediately startled, as if he had thought of something. He swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth, then lowered his head and made way.
As the head of the family for more than a thousand years, he was naturally not a fool. He was just blinded by anger just now. Now seeing that his father's arm was broken and he was so afraid of the young man in front of him, and with Yan Qing accompanying him, he quickly guessed Li Mu's origins.
As the head of the family, he has a huge responsibility and he cannot bring disaster to his family members for his own selfish reasons.
Led by Ouyang Chong, Li Mu and his companions soon arrived outside the Ouyang family's treasure house.
At this moment, Ouyang Chong was inserting the key into the lock of the treasure house with trembling hands. Although he was 90% sure that the sword he saw was the one Li Mu was looking for, there was still a 10% chance that it was not. This was related to the life and death of his Ouyang clan. How could he not be nervous?
