The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 3 of 4
" The youth's face was full of smiles, making one feel as if bathed in a spring breeze. He said, "Fellow Daoist, you probably saw them, a widow and orphan, and felt pity, so you wished to save them. But you do not know that this mother and daughter have done much evil and killed countless people in ordinary times. Our Western Earth True Heaven Palace, in the interest of great righteousness, ordered me to lead a group here to exterminate them. " Shen Mu said solemnly, "So that is how it is. I was impetuous.
Please forgive me, Brother Yu. " The youth Yu Bochuan said with a smile, "The ignorant are not to blame.
Please, Senior Brother, give me some face and let us finish this hardship assignment and return to report. To eliminate these two traitors, we have already lost no small number of fellow disciples. " Shen Mu said with a serious expression, "Of course. Your proper business is important.
It is only that I cannot listen to your side alone. I still need to ask them whether it is as you say. " Yu Bochuan, with a gentle and pleasant countenance, said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, I have already given you a way out.
Do not fail to appreciate my kindness. " Shen Mu also with a gentle and pleasant countenance, said with a smile, "The master of the Dark Demon Cult does not need anyone to give him a way out.
I will ask them. If it is indeed as you say, I will turn around and leave. You may continue dealing with your traitors. If it is.

" "There is no need!
" Yu Bochuan raised his hand and ordered those around him, "Kill him. We will go back and report.
" "Yes!
" Many qi refiners of the True Heaven Palace answered in unison. Their figures rose and fell as they pounced toward Shen Mu. Shen Mu laughed loudly, turned, grabbed the mother and daughter, and left. A Heaven-Man realm expert roared in anger, "Do you think you can leave? " Behind him appeared a towering great tree, its roots coiled like Azure Dragons. That was his primordial spirit. The cultivation methods of the Western Earth True Heaven Palace were also different from those of Jingping Kingdom.
The primordial spirits of Jingping Kingdom experts were often divided into four kinds: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.
After cultivating to the Heaven-Man realm, the primordial spirit manifested behind them. Their primordial spirits were often deified forms of the four great spirit bodies, similar to the four kinds of stone statues in Yincan Village. Even if there were differences, they were not great; all belonged to the four great categories.
But the primordial spirits of True Heaven Palace experts were even stranger. Although this Heaven-Man realm expert's primordial spirit also belonged to the Azure Dragon lineage, it was like a great tree, very rarely seen. The great tree's roots and branches waved.
Swish, swish, swish - one root and branch after another, like Azure Dragons dancing, extended toward Shen Mu's back with extreme speed, flashing streaks of azure light in the air! Although Shen Mu was carrying two people, his movement technique was extremely fast, skimming over light and shadow.
In an instant he surpassed sound and produced a thunderous boom! The Lame Old Man's Sky-Skimming Divine Legs were the fastest under heaven, but Shen Mu was still at the Six Harmonies realm and could not bring out the Sky-Skimming Divine Legs to the Lame Old Man's level. The Heaven-Man realm expert was too strong. Those roots caught up with Shen Mu in the blink of an eye and stabbed toward the back of his heart. Yet at that moment, sword light suddenly erupted around them again.
Eight thousand swords rolled like wind and clouds. In an instant a scroll of mountains and rivers appeared behind Shen Mu. Clang, clang, clang - the sound of fierce strikes rang without cease as they chopped at the incoming roots and branches! The power of the sword diagram was extraordinary.
