A shadow slowly emerged from the ground and floated above Chen Mu's head. It was the soul of Chen Mu who was out of body.
"Fourth-grade warrior..."
Chen Mu murmured in his heart.
Although the fifth-grade warriors in Xuanguo Mansion had strong Qi and blood, they could not give him such a strong sense of oppression. They could completely withstand it even at close range.
As for the fourth-grade warrior, Chen Mu was not afraid when he encountered him in a state of wandering mind, because the opponent did not have the ability to fly to the sky and escape from the earth. As long as his body could not be found, his soul could retreat calmly.
certainly.
If it's a head-on confrontation, it probably won't work.
Chen Mu could feel the faint pressure on his Qi and blood from the fourth-grade worshipper. If there was a head-on conflict, the other party's Qi and blood would be able to impact his heart and soul!
He has read a lot of books about magicians, and also some books about warriors.
On the way to martial arts, the fourth level is a watershed!
The level of the fourth grade is called "non-human", which means an existence that has been separated from the human category. Although it cannot fly into the sky and escape from the earth, the steel and iron bones of the body can attack thousands of armies with the power of one person!
The fourth grade is non-human, and the third grade is called a master. Being able to control the air for a short period of time is the sign of a master. Except for the master, it is difficult for a warrior to have the ability to control the air.
Further up, the second grade is called a Grand Master, which is enough to establish a sect and establish a large sect, and the imperial court will recognize its existence and will not easily conflict with it.
And the first level is a martial saint, the ultimate martial arts realm!
Generally speaking, in the folk world, fourth-grade warriors are very rare existences and rarely appear, because existences at this level have status even in the palaces of princes and princes.
And the status is higher than Chen Mu had expected before. This fourth-grade warrior is already a worshiper in the Xuanguo Mansion, and even the Duke of Xuan of this generation treats him with courtesy!
But that's right when I think about it.
Although the original Duke Xuan Guo of Xuan Guo Mansion is recorded as a third-grade martial arts master who assisted Taizu Taizu of the Yuan Dynasty to quell troubled times and killed countless demons, it has been seven hundred years since then.
For more than seven hundred years, although the Xuanguo Mansion has been inheriting the title and enjoying power, the existence of the Grandmaster level cannot be continued casually. In this generation, it is even more out of date.
"If my heart and soul reach another level, I won't be afraid of fourth-grade warriors."
Chen Mu thought of the realm of a magician.
If fourth-level warriors are inhumane, rarely take action in the world of mortals, and will not compete with the younger generation, then fifth-level magicians are also at this level!
The sixth-grade magician is in the Night Tour realm, and the fifth-grade magician is in the Taoist realm!
As the name suggests, magicians who reach this level will undergo qualitative changes and possess their own unique Taoist magical powers.
Thousands of miles of ice, thunder in hand, red flames burning the sky, this is Taoism!
Although there won't really be an exaggerated description like Frozen Miles Away, magicians at this level no longer look like ordinary people, but are existences with immortal methods!
"I wonder if destroying the Blackwater Gang will help me reach the fifth level."
Chen Muyao thought.
But he quickly gathered his thoughts.
It was late at night, and he no longer had the interest to continue exploring the Xuanguo Mansion, so his heart and soul quietly returned to his body and fell into meditation to rest.
…
The next morning.
Chen Mu slowly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.
"Second Master, morning."
When he opened his eyes, he saw Xiaomei standing by the bed, obedient and well-behaved, holding a porcelain cup for mouthwash in her hand, and next to her was a steaming copper basin with clean water inside, which looked warm.
"Um."
Chen Mu was not surprised by Xiaomei's earth-shaking changes overnight.
If a mere ninth-grade maid could do something under the nose of a sixth-grade magician without being noticed, it would be a big joke in the world.
After Chen Mu returned from his fugue last night, even though he was resting in meditation, he was still very aware of all the changes in his surroundings. It was impossible for any movement inside and outside the courtyard to escape his sight.
Xiaomei stayed up all night last night,
But I still got up early, washed clothes and boiled water.
Chen Mu took the porcelain cup and rinsed his mouth, and then washed and dressed under Xiaomei's service. It was the first time he came to this world to experience the life of a serious young man.
When dressing.
Chen Mu looked at Xiaomei and said, "What is your original name?"
Xiaomei's hand buttoning Chen Mu's cotton-padded jacket paused for a moment, and responded in a low voice: "Mo, Mo Mei."
That's correct.
Chen Mu nodded slightly, but still asked again, "Do you have any sisters in your family?"
This sentence fell.
Xiaomei suddenly fell into silence. After a while, she whispered: "There is no one at home anymore. I used to have a sister."
After hearing this, Chen Mu was basically convinced, and knew that Xiaomei also knew about the Blackwater Gang. However, at this moment, Xiaomei was very strict about her duties. Even if her heart was filled with hatred for the Blackwater Gang, she did not
He showed a little bit and only answered Chen Mu's questions in a low voice.
Regarding Xiaomei's reaction, Chen Mu smiled lightly.
"How did you enter the Xuanguo Mansion?"
"When I returned to the second master, it was when the family was in trouble. I happened to encounter the Xuanguo Mansion buying maids and maids, and then I was selected. I followed him to the Xuanguo Mansion. After learning from the mother-in-law for a while, I came to the second master.
I have never left the Xuanguo Mansion, I have never been in contact with anyone else, and I have never had any unfavorable thoughts towards you, Second Master..."
"It's just that Xiaomei's whole family was harmed by others, and she always had a grudge in her heart, so she secretly learned martial arts."
Xiaomei thought it was Chen Mu who was asking about her origins, so she knelt down in front of Chen Mu and spoke out in one breath.
At this point, she looked up at Chen Mu, bit her lip and said, "This is all Xiaomei's own choice and fault. No matter what punishment the second master has, Xiaomei will not complain."
All this was her own choice, and she had been ready to accept it a long time ago. It was only last night that she thought it was the end, and her heart was so miserable that she couldn't restrain herself, so she lost her soul and cried.
I just didn't expect that Chen Mu didn't deal with her.
She couldn't sleep all night long. Various thoughts such as running away and committing suicide appeared in her mind, but in the end she did nothing because the opportunity to choose was given by Chen Mu. This was a favor.
She had already violated Chen Mu once and could not violate him a second time. Even if she had to face punishments that were crueler than death in the end, she was ready to accept everything.
Chen Mu didn't say anything.
He just looked at Xiaomei quietly.
He gave Xiaomei many choices, and among so many choices, Xiaomei did make the one she should do the most.
There are many men in this world who cannot face what they have done, but Xiaomei can face it. This alone is better than most men.
after awhile.
Chen Mu said calmly: "Get up."
"yes……"
"Tell me about your past, the suffering and hatred."
Xiaomei began to tell what happened to her.
Her father was deceived and owed a huge amount of money. Because he could not repay the debt, he was asked to make his sisters repay the debt. After refusing, he was beaten to death by the Blackwater Gang and many other stories.
It was much more detailed than what Chen Mu saw in the Netherworld.
Including later, I also told the story about the chance encounter with Xuan Guo Mansion’s bribery of maids and maids.
"Even the Blackwater Gang didn't know that you entered the Xuanguo Mansion, and you never saw them or your sister again after that."
After hearing this, Chen Mu pondered and spoke.
"Um."
Xiaomei bit her lip in response.
She can face her choice calmly, but in the end she still can't let go of her sister and the past.
Chen Mu looked at Xiaomei and asked, "Then do you know your sister's current situation?"
"I haven't heard any news about my sister, but my sister fell into their hands..."
Xiaomei shook her head.
With people as cruel and inhumane as the Blackwater Gang, her sister fell into their hands and there has been no news for several years. The current situation can be guessed without even thinking about it.
"Then how much do you know about the Blackwater Gang?"
Chen Mu asked again.
Xiaomei whispered: "I have tried to inquire in the past few years, but I only heard that the Blackwater Gang seems to have declined a lot in the past few years, and I know nothing about the rest."
Chen Mu thought about it for a while and said, "Okay, I know everything. You can go down first."
He said and waved his hand.
Xiao Meifu bowed, then left, and carefully closed the door.
