"The one who killed me is Mu Haotian!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Haotian's face suddenly changed color, and he was horrified, not knowing how his identity was exposed.
But then he came back to his senses:
"No...how does he know my name?"
Looking at Pei Yong again, I saw that he was lying on the ground in a fit of madness, looking like a mad dog. His whips were whipping around wildly, causing chaos all around.
The masters' true energy surged and they ducked and dodged.
Mu Haotian subconsciously stretched out his hand to pull Jing Ling, and took two steps back in panic. Suddenly he felt a gaze piercing him like a sword. He couldn't help but feel chilled, and he immediately stood firm and pretended to be calm.
Pei Yong went crazy for a while, then finally stopped and slowly tried to stand up with his hands on the ground.
Pei Qingqing and Zhang Zhentao stepped forward simultaneously, wanting to help, but the Vine Man girl hesitated for some reason.
Zhang Zhentao supported Pei Yong and asked:
"Brother Pei, what's wrong with you?"
Pei Yong gasped with "ho ho" in his mouth, turned his head and stared at Pei Qingqing, and said solemnly:
"My brother is dead!"
After the words were said, the whole hall was shocked!
Pei Qingqing trembled but did not speak.
Zhang Zhentao's expression changed drastically and he said:
"Brother Pei Zhi, he...he is...what is going on?"
The tone was very pitiful.
Pei Yong did not answer. Gulu swallowed a mouthful of blood, suddenly raised his head to the sky, and gritted his teeth and said:
"Mu Haotian~~~ I, the Vine clan, swear to crush you to ashes!"
The sound can be heard in all directions, and the mist is rising.
But……
Mu Haotian...who is it?
At this moment, such a question appeared in the minds of everyone present.
In fact, even Mu Haotian himself couldn't help but think so.
Four feet away from everyone, Jing Ling's big eyes rolled around, looking up and down at the calm-looking Senior Brother Mu beside her, as if she was getting to know him again.
Mu Haotian kept rubbing his nose. Just now, Pei Yong shouted his name angrily to the sky, which made him sneeze loudly. There was thunder and waves in his chest, but there was no sound on his face.
He finally understood that the other party didn't actually know who "Mu Haotian" was. It was just the connection between the same vine that made Pei Yong yell out:
"The one who killed me is Mu Haotian!"
But Mu Haotian really couldn't understand it. He racked his brains for a moment and couldn't figure out what happened.
Thinking in my heart:
"If, as Pei Yong said, Pei Zhi is dead, then these words are likely to be Pei Zhi's dying words... But why did he call my name when he was about to die? Why did he say that I killed him? And I How can you kill him when you are clearly here?"
The confusion is tangled, like silk and hemp.
Suddenly, he thought that since Pei Zhi died, would Ying'er and Yan'er be saved, or would they encounter new dangers?
My heart was in a state of turmoil, and I really couldn't figure out whether the news was good or bad.
"Brother Zhentao, please tell Mu Haotian the identity of this person truthfully. We, the Tengren clan, will take revenge and will never embarrass you."
Pei Yong asked Zhang Zhentao and wiped a vine around his mouth, smearing blood all over his face.
Zhang Zhentao frowned and thought for a moment, then turned his head and looked at Xu Yuqing and Zheng Qiming. Seeing them both shaking their heads, he said:
"Brother Pei Yong, let's be honest! We have never heard of Mu Haotian's name. The Mu surname is extremely rare. As far as I know, there is no well-known Mu family in Cangzhou..."
Having said this, he turned to look at Mu Haotian, respectfully worshiped the palmist and asked:
"Senior, you are well-informed, have you ever heard of the name Mu Haotian?"
Mu Haotian said in confusion:
"Huh? This..."
Suddenly his heartstrings tightened when he saw Pei Yong standing up and rushing towards him.
He clenched his fists quickly, then slowly released them.
Pei Yong stopped a few feet away, looked directly at Mu Haotian, knelt down to him, and said solemnly:
"Senior, please tell me the truth!"
Mu Haotian's heart was full of ups and downs, but he never expected that he would suddenly give such a gift. As soon as his thoughts changed, he guessed that his expression was hesitant just now, and he misunderstood that he knew "Mu Haotian", and he felt dumbfounded.
At this point, I had no choice but to climb up the pole and continue pretending.
He held his chin with his left hand and pretended to think. After a while, an idea suddenly popped into his mind.
His face was calm and he said in a deep voice:
"Mu Haotian... is really an incredible hidden master! You are absolutely no match for him."
Pei Yong was shocked and said:
"Since my brother is no match, I know that I am no match, but it doesn't matter. I, the elder of the Teng tribe, am visiting the Houtu Mountain in Lanzhou. I will be heading west to Cangzhou in the near future. Please tell me more."
Mu Haotian nodded and said:
"The whereabouts of Mu Haotian were uncertain. In his early years, he settled in Xuandao Jiwu Peak, where Zhongzhou and Cangzhou met. He had a violent temper and was murderous, which greatly conflicted with my benevolence and righteousness. Whenever I tried to persuade him, he would always be obedient and loyal to me. I patted my chest and promised to do good, but I didn’t expect that this time I would commit murder again! If I don’t change despite repeated admonitions, it’s simply abominable!”
He let out a long sigh and glanced sideways at Jing Ling, who was holding back a smile with his lips pursed. His face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he said again:
"I heard you say before that your brother Pei Zhi is with the old ghost in Xishan Liushuidong. Do you have a way to find the old ghost quickly?"
Pei Zhi was still kneeling on the ground and raised his finger in a direction:
"I'm not familiar with that Xishan ghost, but the place where my brother died is in that direction. It's about dozens of miles away."
Mu Haotian felt happy, but his brows gradually furrowed. He thought for a moment and then said:
"Well, because of your deep brotherhood and your sincere attitude, this Mu Haotian also happens to have some causal entanglements with me. You wait here for a while, and I will go over and capture him and let you do whatever you want."
After saying that, he turned around and said sideways:
"Ling'er, come with me and learn more."
He took Jing Ling and walked a few steps without looking back:
"You don't have to follow. Mu Haotian's skills are extraordinary and his methods are extremely vicious. Although I am not afraid, I may not be able to protect so many people at the same time."
Every word and deed is done in one go.
Pei Yong stayed there for a long time, watching the two men slowly turn the corner and walk away. Then he woke up from his dream, kowtowed heavily at the backs of the two men, and shouted loudly:
"Senior Yuntian has great righteousness, Pei Yong will never forget him!"
The sound covered the waterfall and spread far in the forest.
