Mu Yang once again fell into the endless darkness. It was the same as the previous experiences when he was seriously injured and fell into coma. The familiarity made him think a little casually.
Of course, everything still requires experience.
As if after a long time, I slowly felt some consciousness while floating,
The fingers moved slightly twice, then the toes, and finally the muscles in the whole body were able to obey the instructions of the brain.
"Brother, you're back again!"
Mu Yang wanted to shout excitedly, but when he opened his mouth, he was immediately greeted by the smell of earth, and he couldn't open his eyes at all.
It's not that my eyelids are inoperable, it's more like they're blocked by something.
"Hey, why can't you move?"
Mu Yang struggled for a while and felt that his whole body was being suppressed by something, making him unable to exert any strength at all.
It wasn't until a long time later that he finally understood his situation, and suddenly thought helplessly: "Why did this silly girl Xiaoran bury me?"
Yes, Mu Yang was buried in the ground. It wasn't very deep, but it was pressed firmly and he couldn't move at all.
Gradually, the feeling of suffocation came, and Mu Yang had to shake his body vigorously in order to loosen the soil and get some air and more space.
Dark clouds covered the moon, and heavy rain poured down from the sky. However, the soul beasts in the jungle were wandering around without any care.
Next to a towering old tree, the slightly raised mound of soil is breaking open, as if some powerful plant is about to break out of the ground.
This caused the wandering spirit beasts nearby to come closer in surprise.
Like a sapling that had just sprouted, Mu Yang gradually revealed his hands, then his head and body.
At this moment, I was sitting in the pit breathing in the fresh air.
The surrounding spirit beasts were very serious about this. They had never thought about what kind of seeds could grow a living person?
"Hey, there's grass growing on the graves?"
Mu Yang regained his composure and looked around at his surroundings. It was obvious that the soil that pressed him just now was already overgrown with weeds.
"Ouch~~~~"
The surrounding spirit beasts were finally sure that this was a human being, and immediately roared and rushed towards him.
"Damn it, how dare you dance in front of grandpa's grave? You are seeking death!"
Mu Yang didn't care about the attacks of these spirit beasts. After counting, there were only about ten of them, which was not enough for him to move his muscles and bones.
The colorful words 'Invincible' came out as he thought and immediately enveloped him. After a short moment,
After hearing more than a dozen confused screams, those soul beasts who had just been 'disco dancing' immediately called it a day and got off work.
Mu Yang patted the dirt on his hands, shook his head helplessly, and said to himself: "Xiao Ran, this devilish girl, seems to be in need of 'cleaning up'."
But even though he was thinking like this, he started looking around anxiously. After all, there were soul beasts everywhere in this wilderness.
Where could she hide?
Mu Yang shuttled through the jungle in the rain, killing a few eyeless soul beasts from time to time, and rushed all the way towards Hengshui City.
Although it was almost impossible to identify the direction in the dark rainy night, I still ran and shouted back to Hengshui City again.
Nothing has changed here, except that the corpses in the city have disappeared. They must have been taken away by the soul beast.
Mu Yang walked on the empty street and shouted Sheng Ran's name loudly, the voice was so loud that it even faintly drowned out the sound of the heavy rain.
But after knowing that he had come all the way to the seaside villa area, he still didn't get any response.
"What's going on?" Mu Yang frowned and became worried, and the speed of his feet increased a lot.
In the villa area, the house that belonged to him was still the same as usual, except that there were many tall weeds around it.
In the courtyard in front of the door, seven tombstones stand proudly here.
Mu Yang was immediately confused when he saw this. The tombstone was a bit crude. Judging from the word "dead brother",
It should have been made by Sheng Ran. Judging from the surrounding weeds, this tombstone must have been standing here for some time.
And in front of the seven tombstones, there were two corpses, which had long been turned into white bones, and even their clothes were in tatters and broken into several pieces.
"Have I been unconscious for a long time?
"Mu Yang whispered to himself, becoming even more worried about Sheng Ran's comfort.
But since she did all this, it means that she should have returned to the restricted area safely.
Although there are elementary soul beasts here, for a sage soul master, they are not enough to threaten her life.
But even so, Mu Yang could not find Sheng Ran's whereabouts after searching for a long time.
"If she is with Xiaolan, she should be able to return to Luliang City, right?" Mu Yang rubbed his chin, calculating where Sheng Ran would go.
Not long after, Mu Yang made up his mind and set off towards Luliang City.
Since Sheng Ran is not here, he must have taken Xiaolan back to Luliang City. He was also very worried about this.
If Sheng Ran returns to Luliang City to save Li Jiaojiao and offends Kan Qingfeng and his gang, wouldn't it be a disaster?
Thinking of this, Mu Yang gathered all his strength and rushed towards Luliang City.
At his current speed, he can reach his destination in just one day.
What's more, he is already a sage-level soul master and has no idea about hunger. He doesn't need to stop to eat or drink, which saves a lot of time.
As the sun rose and set, when the morning sun rose again, a dark green barrier gradually appeared in Mu Yang's eyes.
But what surprised him was, when did the ‘stars’ of Luliang City expand?
Its coverage area is even much larger than the area before the great tribulation.
Without thinking too much, Mu Yang quickly walked in. As soon as he passed through the barrier,
I saw the dark green light suddenly rippling like water waves,
It's just that the anxious Mu Yang didn't notice this strange change.
Walking in the Green Zone, Mu Yang's dress immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
"Tsk tsk tsk, look at it son, if you don't study hard, you will have to be like him in the future."
A mother holding her child pointed at Muyang, using it as a negative lesson to teach her child.
Of course Mu Yang heard her words and immediately shook his head and smiled bitterly,
He looked really miserable now. His tattered clothes were full of traces of corruption. He reached out and touched his face.
Only then did I realize that my beard had grown long enough to be knotted.
However, this does not affect his pace. His purpose is very clear. The Li Manor in the central city.
If her prediction was correct, Sheng Ran would definitely go to Li Jiaojiao. After all, the only person she could rely on in this world was Li Jiaojiao.
There were more and more pedestrians on the road, all looking at Mu Yang with pity. Some even wanted to step forward to help him.
Ignoring all this, he quickly arrived in front of Li's Manor.
This place is still as luxurious and spacious as before. The huge courtyard is full of flowers and plants, and there is a little girl with silver hair in it, who is playing happily at the moment.
Hearing Mu Yang's shout, the little girl came over timidly, staring at Mu Yang unblinkingly with her big watery eyes, "Grandpa, who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for Li Jiaojiao, who are you?" Mu Yang suddenly became extremely gentle when he saw such a cute little girl who looked like a porcelain doll.
"My name is..."
Halfway through her words, the little girl heard a woman shouting from inside the house, which immediately interrupted her words.
Sure enough, just a moment later, a woman with silver hair and some wrinkles on her face came out, hugged the little girl and looked at Mu Yang warily.
"Aunt... hello, my name is Mu Yang, and I'm here to see Li Jiaojiao."
Mu Yang respectfully expressed his identity and purpose of coming. He already had some guesses about the identities of the two people in front of him.
If nothing else, he should be related to Li Jiaojiao.
The woman's face changed when she heard this, and she didn't know whether she was surprised by Mu Yang's identity or his purpose.
"Li Jiaojiao?...She, she has been gone for five years!"
The woman's eyes were a little evasive, but it happened that the little girl was curiously tugging on the small hole in Muyang's trouser leg, attracting his attention.
He didn't notice anything strange on the woman's face.
"Five years?" Mu Yang suddenly raised his head and said in surprise, his voice couldn't help but become a little louder, and the cute little girl was so frightened that she shrank behind the woman.
"Yes, I have been gone for five years!"
"Then you are?"
"I am also a member of the Li clan. I came from Yongning City. This is my granddaughter."
The woman's tone was somewhat unbearable, but Mu Yang was so shocked at this moment that he couldn't even notice it.
Five years? How come it’s only been five years?
Didn't she encounter any danger? Did Xiaoran leave with her?
Thinking of this, Mu Yang quickly asked: "Is she okay? Has she encountered any danger?"
"There is no danger, she just left." The lady shook her head and said softly.
Mu Yang frowned when he heard this, and he suddenly doubted what the lady said.
After all, he once felt very clearly how terrible the crisis Li Jiaojiao faced was, to the point where she did not dare to tell him at all.
"Kan Qingfeng, if you are still here, today may be the day you die." Mu Yang thought to himself, and then said goodbye to the woman, then turned and walked towards the city guard's mansion.
When the little girl saw him walking away, she bravely said, "Grandma, who is Li Jiaojiao?"
"She is your mother!" The woman knelt down and touched the little girl's head lovingly, "But you can't tell others?"
"Oh, grandma, your surname is Li, my grandfather's surname is Li, my mother's surname is also Li, why is my surname Mu?"
"Hahaha, dear Yue'er, grandma will tell you these questions slowly when you grow up." The woman patted the girl's butt gently and said softly, "Go back and read quickly. You will go there next year."
Start studying at Holy Soul Academy."
"Oh!" The girl murmured, and walked reluctantly toward the house, leaving the woman alone, looking at the direction Mu Yang left, sighing softly.
"My child, it seems you are right. This boy will not leave you alone. It's a pity..."

The City Guard is the highest authority center established in every city, and it is also the place with the strongest defense force in the city.
Almost all the city guards here are soul masters of high level or above.
"stop!"
A man who looked like an army officer blocked Mu Yang's way.
However, the seemingly slovenly and rough man in front of him turned out to be a ruthless character. After hearing this, he just glanced at him lightly and walked towards the city guard's mansion.
Upon seeing this, the surrounding guards quickly gathered around, each holding a weapon and becoming cautiously on guard.
"I told you to stop!"
"I'm standing on your mother's lap, get out!"
Mu Yang shouted loudly and immediately punched the sergeant.
How could he react to the speed of the sage-level spirit master? He was immediately hit by Mu Yang's fist directly in the face, and passed out before he even hit the ground.
"Kan Qingfeng, get out of here, Grandpa Mu, otherwise I won't be able to experience the title of an ordinary consul today."
As the waves rose and rolled, Muyang's feet did not stop.
The square in front of the city guard's mansion was already filled with surprised people.
Seeing Mu Yang stepping up the steps leading to the mansion step by step, he suddenly let out a low cry.
"Who is this? How dare you provoke the Archon?"
"Are you afraid he's a lunatic? Look at what he's wearing."
"I think it must be some frustrated soul hunter!"
…………
The crowd was talking a lot, and at this moment, a few people suddenly walked out on the steps. Looking closely, they saw that they were Kan Qingfeng and the seven guardians behind him.
"Where are these arrogant people from? Catch them!"
One of the guardians shouted loudly, which immediately gave the guards surrounding Muyang a lot of confidence.
"Hey, what about the meeting?" Mu Yang laughed out loud when he saw this, and said teasingly, "Just in time, everything is ready. I'll save you the trouble of killing them one by one."
After saying that, he took action directly and knocked the guards around him to the ground in the blink of an eye.
Then he clapped his hands and said with a relaxed look: "But before that, I have a question to ask first."
