1325 Swat a Darn Bug to Death
Qiao Mu stood there coldly, the billowing dust settling all around her.
Smoke and dust filled the air.
The entire City Lord's Estate could not endure the strength of the secret realm heart explosion, thus slowly crumbling into scattering dust.
At this time, an iron chain shot out toward Qiao Mu's arms from the corner of the walls.
With a croak, a large-mouthed toad jumped out from the foot of the wall and spat venom at Qiao Mu.
After casting a cold glance, Qiao Mu promptly scattered a handful of powder that directly evaporated the venom with a sizzle.
She wrapped herself with a wood spiritual shield before grabbing at the corner of the wall.
Her petite hand, which had been fortified with a diamond talisman, impaled the person's shoulder blade, triggering a painful shout.
*Bam!* Qiao Mu dragged a young man out from behind the wall and threw him down at her feet. She then tied him up tightly with a green vine, which produced another shout of pain.
This young man was the person who had escaped with that woman from the Anyi Prefecture earlier.
Qiao Mu swept her gaze around and eyed Guan Yiying in a corner, panickedly abandoning her companion to flee.
That large-mouthed toad should be Guan Yiying's mystic beast. When it saw its master fleeing, it transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into her mystic beast space.
"You really are a pitiful bug." Qiao Mu scoffed, "Your teammate has abandoned you."
"Don't, don't kill me, don't kill!!" Horror suffused the young man's eyes as an intense hatred of Guan Yiying also surfaced in his heart.
Originally, he was all for finding an opportunity to flee since Pundit Zhao had already died. Besides, this little lady was not to be trifled with either.
Yet who knew that Guan Yiying coveted the little lady's secrets and was also unwilling to give up that Xuanji Core.
She just had to pull him over to take a look.
It was fine if you wanted to take a look, but you couldn't even defeat the girl after suddenly attacking her. You even implicated him and escaped on your own!
He felt wronged no matter how you viewed this incident.
"Th-That lad from the Fan Clan said, y-you have the Xuanji Core on you. Guan Yiying, Guan Yiying! She wanted it, i-it has nothing to do with me, it was Guan Yiying. The Anyi Prefecture's Fourth Miss, Guan Yiying, sh-she wanted the Xuanji Core, she wanted to kill you."
"Ah—AHH!" The young man suddenly felt pain assaulting the depths of his conscious pool.
An abnormally horrifying stripping sensation came from within. Something very important was getting stripped from his body, and it plunged him in terror.
"Ah!" The young man screamed as he watched on helplessly as Qiao Mu used spiritual conscious to forcefully tear apart the doors to his inner world.
Im-Impossible, how was it possible for someone to strip another person's inner world?
The sound of light clattering could be heard, and the young man discovered in apprehension that the items originally stored in his inner world were spilling out all at once.
Ah! His inner world…
Coveting other people's items will eventually lead to a taste of your own medicine.
Qiao Mu stomped his back. "Speak, what connection does your Anyi Prefecture have with that middle-aged woman? Are you guys in cahoots?"
The young man had already fainted from pain, but this stomp on his spine roused him again as his whole body shook.
This young man knew that his life would end here today no matter what, so after balancing the scales in his heart, he said decisively, "Just, just kill me, kill me! I only ask for a quick death."
"Humph." Qiao Mu gave a harrumph. "If you answer honestly, you will get a quick death."
"Don't, don't know her," the young man grunted.
