Three Kingdoms Mythology World.

Lin Mu watched Huang Zhong's figure disappear at the end of the street before he breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look down at the city below.

Yu Jin, Le Jin, and others were still busy outside the city, while the city below was brightly lit as everyone worked overtime to process the carcasses of the ferocious beasts.

"Forget it, let's not notify them."

"Taishi Ci will stay here to oversee things, just in case. Guo Jia is recuperating at the city lord's mansion; we can give him some instructions as well."

Lin Mu took out the pages of the Qiankun Mother-Child Book and briefly explained them to Guo Jia.

Afterwards, he took out the Kun Stone and teleported back to Shenlong Valley.

After making some inquiries, they learned that Long Ying had sealed off Shenlong Peak, and no one could go up there anymore.

Even Little Xuankun couldn't get on...

"Could she really have been seriously injured...? This little guy is new to the game, if he gets tricked, that would be terrible..." Lin Mu was worried about Long Ying, not knowing the specifics of her situation.

He then inquired about Xiao Xuankun's whereabouts and discovered that she had left Shenlong Valley. Helpless, he could only send people to search for her.

While Lin Mu returned to Shenlong Valley to wait for Xiao Xuankun, Huang Zhong disregarded his own exhaustion and quickly returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

Afterwards, when he met Guo Jia, he clutched the item tightly and did not let Guo Jia see it.

Guo Jia frowned, looking with great interest at the long, narrow object that Huang Zhong was tightly clutching.

He guessed that this object should be a small tower... but something that could make Lord Lin Mu and Huang Zhong value it so much must be no ordinary small tower.

Even the North Star Soul Tower, Lord Lin Mu didn't value it this much...

"Could it be related to this beast tide...? Is this what the demon race wants to seize?!" Guo Jia speculated.

"It looks like an extraordinary treasure!" Guo Jia sat cross-legged and closed his eyes to recover.

Huang Zhong also sat cross-legged, waiting quietly.

At this moment, Huang Zhong was still covered in blood, but neither of them felt the filth or stench... They silently and steadfastly protected him.

After waiting for a long time, the little Xuan Kun finally appeared in front of Lin Mu, swaying its body.

"What do you want from me... This princess is going to find a treasure for Xiaoying to use!" Xiao Xuankun spoke with a strong Northeastern accent, and even called himself a princess, clearly influenced by the supernatural beings!
However, Lin Mu ignored that and focused on the following sentence.

"Is Xiaoying's condition serious?" Lin Mu couldn't help but ask.

"Of course it's serious, the body of a true dragon is severely injured... Fortunately, it's not a soul injury, otherwise it would be even more serious..." Little Xuankun said loudly, swaying his body.

"The True Dragon's body has been severely injured... just as expected." Lin Mu sighed softly.

"During the fight, I was bitten several times by the ancient ferocious beast Taotie... If I hadn't avoided vital points, I might have lost my dragon heart..."

“With each bite, the dragon’s body was severed… In other words, she was bitten into… several pieces… How tragic…” Little Xuankun felt a lingering fear when he thought of Long Ying’s condition.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu's expression changed drastically.

Such an injury cannot be described as insignificant...

"This little guy said he was confident... and he still got injured like this!" Lin Mu said with heartache.

"What treasure are you looking for?" Lin Mu asked immediately.

"Dragon Blood Divine Fruit... This item is very effective in restoring the body of a true dragon. It can nourish the dragon's body, regenerate the flesh and blood, and complete the true dragon's body. Of course, with Sakura's foundation, she can also recover on her own, it just takes time."

"Oh dear, what brings you back? This princess just got into a fight with a monkey, and it seems there's a Dragon Blood Tree in its territory..."

"Fighting monkeys? Do you need our help? I'll go with you and get the stuff back quickly!" Lin Mu said immediately, temporarily forgetting about the Ten Thousand Demon Tower.

Compared to Ryūzakura, the others are all inferior!
In fact, an idea had crossed Lin Mu's mind: to bind Long Ying to the Ten Thousand Demon Tower and then restore her within it... He had a premonition that the Ten Thousand Demon Tower would be of great use to Long Ying, even if its attributes didn't explicitly show any restoration-related properties, it definitely would! Lin Mu even considered letting Long Ying die once... but he immediately dismissed that thought... He would never take the risk if he could avoid dying!
"No need, no need... This princess can do it." Little Xuankun said, swaying his body.

"You still haven't told me what you wanted to see me about?"

"I want you to help me transport something," Lin Mu said mysteriously.

"Ah... transporting things? You can't deliver them?" Little Xuankun hadn't yet realized the seriousness of the problem.

"Yes...we might not be able to deliver it...can you do me a favor?" Lin Mu said softly, without being honest.

"Alright then." Little Xuankun thought it was just a regular delivery mission.

"Alright, let's go!" Lin Mu said decisively.

Before long, the man and the beast arrived at Qingyuan City.

"Holy crap!~~~" As soon as Xiao Xuankun appeared at the teleportation array in Qingyuan City, he sensed something in the darkness and uttered a vulgar curse.

"Why are you here? It's so dangerous here..." Little Xuankun seemed a bit evasive, clearly she had been here before... and had some bad experiences.

Lin Mu frowned slightly, but did not delve into it further, and led him into the city lord's mansion.

Before long, the little Xuan Kun flew out of the city lord's mansion and headed south.

"Dao Jiu, what is this thing?" After Xiao Xuan Kun had been gone for a while, and should have left the Seven Desolate Mountains, Guo Jia finally couldn't help but ask.

Lin Mu didn't speak, but instead dipped his finger in the tea and wrote a line of words on the table: Demon Clan's Divine Artifact for Suppressing Fortune [Ten Thousand Demon Tower]!
Huang Zhong and Guo Jia were both shocked when they saw this line of text.

"Let's go, let's leave the Seven Desolate Mountains too." Lin Mu gently wiped away the water stains and led the two away via the teleportation array.

The three of them first returned to Shenlong Valley.

Inside the True Dragon Pavilion, Lin Mu revealed all the information.

"Holy crap, my lord! If it's a high-level spirit beast, we can bind it to the Ten Thousand Demon Tower, kill it, eat its flesh, and then revive it. Wouldn't that allow us to kill it again, eat its flesh, and repeat the cycle, giving us an endless supply of meat?!" The astute Huang Zhong immediately discovered the bug in the Ten Thousand Demon Tower!
Even Huang Zhong was shocked by its attributes and uttered a vulgar curse.

“It’s not that simple…” However, Guo Jia fell into deep thought.

He thought of the unusual nature of this beast tide, of the Azure Dragon, of the Seven Desolate Mountains, of the Ten Thousand Demon Tower…

Lord Lin Mu said it was a reward from Heaven, which proves that it wasn't in Qingyuan City before... meaning the Ten Thousand Demon Tower wasn't their target.

"I'm being so cautious because I'm afraid that the beings deep within the Seven Desolate Mountains will find out..." Lin Mu said softly.

"Little Xuankun hasn't made a move even with the Ten Thousand Demon Tower in hand, and the Seven Desolate Mountains probably can't sense it either... There shouldn't be any changes." Guo Jia shook his head.

"By the way, are you going to take the Ten Thousand Demon Tower back to the Divine Dragon Valley?" Guo Jia asked.

"Do you have any different opinions?" Lin Mu nodded and asked.

"Dao Jiu, this dragon of the Great Wilderness Territory has escaped its confinement and emerged from the abyss... We need to shift our focus... Let's take the Ten Thousand Demon Tower to Luoyang, the capital!" Guo Jia said decisively.

"Oh... take it to Luoyang, the capital..." Lin Mu didn't think too much about it in his haste, and Guo Jia's suggestion was very reasonable.

However, they haven't been able to get through yet, and the capital city of Luoyang is also shrouded in a large formation.

"My lord, why don't you go to the first position and wait for Xiao Xuankun? Let her go to Luoyang and see if she can enter or leave the formation," Huang Zhong suggested.

Previously, Lin Mu and his group had already discussed the route and strategy with Xiao Xuankun, and set twelve nodes where the two sides could meet and communicate, just in case.

"Alright then." Lin Mu nodded. (End of Chapter)
