The Great Ruler - Chapter39

Mu Chen's hands touched Xue Tu's corpse. He was not too interested in Xue Tu himself. However, he was interested in the item that Xue Tu stole from the Liu Territory.

The Blood Slaughter Group was a rather famous force within the Northern Spiritual Realm. Although they could not compare to the Nine Territories, they still had some ability. Normally, they would act domineeringly, but they would not target the Nine Territories. This was because they understood that the Blood Slaughter Group was not an opponent of the Nine Territories. Therefore, Mu Chen was very curious about the item that would cause the Blood Slaughter Group to take such a big risk and attack the Liu Territory.

Moreover, the Liu Territory's reaction made Mu Chen a bit surprised. They actually massacred the Blood Slaughter Group and chased Xue Tu into the Northern Spiritual Field without giving up.

It was obvious that they were extremely concerned about the item that was stolen by Xue Tu.

How could something that the Liu Territory valued so much be ordinary?

Within the Northern Spiritual Realm, the Liu Territory was the strongest among the Nine Territories. The Liu Territory had always wanted to become the true boss of the Northern Spiritual Realm. Over the years, they had used various methods to rope in and threaten others. This caused their reputation within the Northern Spiritual Realm to become bigger and bigger. Most of the time, they acted as if they were the strongest force within the Northern Spiritual Realm. As for the Liu Territory's flexing of muscles, the other Territory Lords did not really buy it. Mu Chen's father, Mu Feng, was one of them.

Mu Feng had a grudge with the Liu Territory's Territory Lord, Liu Qingtian. Over the years, there had been a lot of friction between the two territories. Both sides did not like each other. Although they smiled and talked to each other, they would definitely attack each other ruthlessly if they had the chance.

Because of this relationship, in addition to the Liu Mubai brothers targeting him, Mu Chen naturally did not have a good impression of the Liu Territory. He was quite willing to do something that could destroy the Liu Territory's good fortune.

While Mu Chen had these thoughts in his mind, his hands did not slow down. However, after searching through Xue Tu's body for a long time, he did not discover anything strange. He immediately frowned. Could it be that this guy had saved up the Dongzang?

Mu Chen was still unwilling to give up and directly ripped off all of Xue Tu's clothes. When Mu Chen ripped off the last piece of clothing, something finally fell off along with it.

Mu Chen immediately looked over, only to see a bracelet-like grey silver ring on the grass, flickering with a faint silver light.

Mu Chen hurriedly bent down to pick up the grey silver bracelet. He examined it back and forth, but didn't find anything special about it. He pondered for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up. "Is this a Mustard Seed Bracelet?"

The so-called Mustard Seed Bracelet was a special type of Totems. As the saying goes, a mountain hides a mustard seed and a mustard seed hides a mountain. This type of Totems had the power to construct space and was a very rare storage tool. However, this item was very expensive. Mu Chen had only seen it in his father's hands. He did not expect that Xue Tu would actually have one.

Mu Chen played with the grey Mustard Seed Bracelet. It was said that this item had the owner's Spiritual Energy imprint on it. This way, if someone else touched it, the owner would immediately notice. However, since Xue Tu was already dead, the Spiritual Energy imprint should have disappeared.

Mu Chen held the Mustard Seed Bracelet in his hand. With a thought, Spiritual Energy flowed into the Mustard Seed Bracelet from his palm. Suddenly, a small space appeared in Mu Chen's perception. It was the storage space within the Mustard Seed Bracelet.

Inside the Mustard Seed Bracelet, Mu Chen did find a lot of things. However, there were all kinds of things in a mess. Mu Chen roughly examined it, but didn't find anything special.

"Where did this guy get so much trash? No matter what, he was still the leader of the Blood Slaughter Group." Mu Chen was puzzled. He could only carefully search again and again.

This search continued for a long time. Suddenly, Mu Chen's expression changed. With a flash of light in his palm, an ancient copper plate appeared. When Mu Chen's Spiritual Energy swept through the Mustard Seed Bracelet, the other items would more or less have a slight reaction due to the Spiritual Energy. Only this thing did not have any reaction.

However, it was an extremely ordinary scene that attracted Mu Chen's attention.

Mu Chen stared at the ancient copper plate. He saw that the copper plate was covered with some extremely obscure copper patterns. The patterns were so complicated that it made him feel a little dizzy.

On the back of the copper patterns, the patterns were a little clearer. From a rough look, it seemed to be a giant black bird flapping its wings. Below the giant bird, there were mountains and rivers. However, these mountains and rivers seemed to be covered by the wings of the giant bird.

Covering the mountains with its wings.

"What kind of Spiritual Beast is this?"

Mu Chen was a little surprised. Although the surface of the copper plate was a little blurry, he still felt an indescribable awe from the patterns. This made him especially surprised. What kind of Spiritual Beast could make him feel awe from just a pattern?

Could it be a Heavenly Beast?

Mu Chen frowned as he looked at the copper plate. However, there was no result. He could only shake his head. Intuition told him that there was a high possibility that this was something that the Blood Slaughter Group had snatched from the hands of the Liu Territory.

However, as for what use this thing had, he would probably have to let his father take a look to find out.

Mu Chen shrugged his shoulders. Just as he was about to search the Mustard Seed Bracelet again, his expression suddenly changed. In the distance, there was the sound of rushing wind. Moreover, from the direction, it was obviously coming towards him.

Mu Chen quickly stored the copper plate into the Mustard Seed Bracelet. Then, he wore the Mustard Seed Bracelet on his wrist and used his sleeves to cover it. Then, he quickly put on Xue Tu's clothes.

When he finished doing this, figures appeared nearby. In a few short breaths, those figures appeared on the empty ground. When Mu Chen looked over, he heaved a sigh of relief. It was Teacher Mo and the others.

"Mu Chen!"

When Teacher Mo appeared, he saw Mu Chen standing nearby. A trace of joy suddenly appeared on his originally tense face. His figure moved and appeared beside the latter as he asked: "Are you alright?"

Mu Chen smiled and shook his head. Although his face was a bit pale, his condition was still alright.

"I heard from Qian 'Er that you guys met Xue Tu. That's why I immediately chased after you and finally met you here."

When Teacher Mo saw that Mu Chen was safe, he was clearly a bit relieved. He immediately frowned as he looked around and said: "That's right, where's Xue Tu?

That guy must have eaten a leopard's guts. He actually dared to attack a student of our Northern Spiritual Academy! "

Mu Chen let out a hollow laugh. Then, he pointed at the grass in front of him and said: "That guy is dead."

Teacher Mo's expression clearly paused for a moment. Teacher Xi, who was behind him, was also stunned. Then, he waved his sleeves and a dense Spiritual Energy directly blew the grass away. Then, a cold corpse was revealed.

"This …"

Teacher Mo and Teacher Xi stared at the cold corpse and their faces slightly changed. They immediately looked at Mu Chen in disbelief: "What happened?"

Just when Mu Chen was about to speak, the sound of wind breaking came from behind. Liu Ming brought a large group of people and quickly rushed over. Behind him, Liu Mubai and Liu Yang followed. When they saw that An Ran was unharmed, Mu Chen's eyes revealed a bit of shock.

"Xue Tu?"

Liu Ming immediately saw the corpse on the ground. His expression immediately changed and he hurriedly said: "What happened?"

As he spoke, his sharp eyes looked at Mu Chen. His gaze made the latter quite uncomfortable.

"You did it?"

Mu Chen saw his gaze and shook his head: "I was chased by him and almost lost my life. However, I coincidentally met an old man and he killed Xue Tu."

"Old man?"

Liu Ming narrowed his eyes and looked at Mu Chen suspiciously. Then, he waved his hand and two of his subordinates immediately approached Xue Tu's corpse. After searching for a while, they shook their heads at Liu Ming.

When Liu Ming saw this, the corner of his eyes twitched. He looked at Mu Chen again and a gentle smile appeared on his face: "Mu Chen, did you see the thing on Xue Tu's body?"

"What thing?"

Mu Chen blinked and smiled: "Just now, after the old man finished him off, he searched for a while. However, I hid far away and didn't dare to come over, so I don't know what he took."

Liu Ming's face instantly turned cold.

"Mu Chen, don't talk nonsense. You must have taken the thing on Xue Tu's body. That old man or whatever he is, I'm afraid he was just made up by you!" Liu Yang said angrily.

"You mean …" Mu Chen looked at him strangely and said: "This Xue Tu was killed by me?"

Liu Yang paused and was speechless. Xue Tu was at the Spiritual Rotation Stage Late Phase and was only one step away from the Spirit Stage. For Mu Chen to kill him was simply a fantasy.

Liu Mubai stared coldly at Mu Chen as a cold flame surged in the depths of his eyes.

"Hehe, Mu Chen, don't joke with me. If you really took the thing, as long as you hand it over to me, I will definitely thank you. Moreover, I will personally go to the Mu Territory and talk to your father about this." Liu Ming tried his best to make his expression a bit more amiable as he said with a smile.

"Third Master Liu, I really didn't see anything on his body. Previously, I was almost scared to death when he chased me. How would I dare to take the initiative to approach him?" Mu Chen shook his head. The young man's face seemed especially serious and honest.

The corner of Liu Ming's eyes twitched. He finally could not suppress the anger in his heart. Although he did not believe that Mu Chen could really kill Xue Tu, he was still the biggest suspect here. He immediately took a step forward and grabbed Mu Chen with his large hand. He coldly said: "Since you are not willing to tell the truth, then let me personally search your body!"

When Mu Chen saw Liu Ming's large hand reach out, he clenched his fist and a dark black dagger appeared in his hand.

However, just as Liu Ming's large hand was about to grab Mu Chen, another hand reached out and blocked it. Teacher Mo glanced at Liu Ming and said indifferently, causing Liu Ming's body to stiffen.

"Liu Ming, you've gone too far."

(A new day, recommendation tickets. Is everyone ready?!

Thank you!)
