Chapter 380 Raid
“I asked around, and this guy is just a lowly schoolteacher, dirt poor, with no money to be made, Uncle.” Sun Chengzong looked at Sun Wujiu beside him, puzzled.

"Shut up!" Sun Wujiu, dressed in black robes, stood in the shadows of the woods, scolding with displeasure, "Have you forgotten the purpose of our trip?"

Sun Chengzong rolled his eyes: "So much time has passed, that sword box and gourd have long since disappeared."

"Even if we really find the treasure gourd, won't it be given priority to nurture flying swords for the eldest son's direct descendants? We... ha!" Sun Chengzong said indignantly.

Sun Wujiu remained silent, calmly looking at a weed at his feet.

After a long pause, he finally spoke calmly: "Set up a barrier between the two realms as soon as possible."

Sun Chengzong grew increasingly impatient: "Why bother with all that trouble? Just go there and kill them directly."

“This person is different.” Sun Wujiu looked at the bamboo house that was vaguely visible in the dense forest in the distance, with a strange expression on his face.

Sun Chengzong scoffed, "What makes him any different?"

"He can refine pills and even teach others how to refine pills. What makes him different?" Sun Wujiu glanced at the other person and said indifferently.

"Alchemy?" Sun Chengzong was overjoyed: "A fat sheep!"

"I knew it! At such a crucial moment, how could a mere Imperial Librarian be worth your personal supervision, Uncle!"

"I'm rich!"

"Quickly, quickly, go and set up the isolation measures."

More than a dozen figures in black robes suddenly rushed out of the woods behind them and ran off in different directions.

Before long, a layer of strange energy slowly rose in the dense forest.

The moonlight in the sky seemed to be slightly distorted, and the chirping of insects and birds in the forest gradually disappeared.

More than a dozen men in black returned one after another.

"An alchemist who doesn't go to the Pill Treasure Pavilion, but instead becomes a proofreader? He's quite good at hiding his talent." Sun Chengzong shook his head with a chuckle, then looked at Sun Wujiu curiously: "By the way, Third Uncle, how did you notice him?"

"It's nothing to mention," Sun Wujiu waved his hand.

"Tell me about it, this kid isn't going anywhere," Sun Chengzong said with a grin.

"Yeah, tell me about it, anyway, I'm not going to run away."

An unfamiliar voice echoed softly from behind the group.

Sun Wujiu's expression changed instantly, as if he had been locked onto by a powerful demon, and a chill ran down his spine!
not good!

Before he could utter a sound, a powerful force struck his lower back.

A sharp pain struck him, and he felt as if he had been snapped in half at the waist, his body involuntarily arching backward.

The force was so great that Sun Wujiu had no time to react before he was sent flying.

Everyone stared in disbelief at Sun Wujiu's sudden disappearance!
Sun Chengzong was also taken aback, and his expression changed drastically. Just as he was about to make a move, an invisible force suddenly descended upon him.

He was like a mosquito trapped inside amber, unable to move no matter how hard he struggled.

A shadow slowly rose from behind him, gradually enveloping him.

Sun Chengzong tried to turn his eyes backward, but he couldn't see anything.

"Senior, is there some misunderstanding here?" He tried to remain calm.

"We are here to catch a petty thief who stole something from my Sun family patriarch."

"I apologize for disturbing your peaceful cultivation, senior."

"Tomorrow, my Sun family will definitely bring generous gifts to apologize and make amends," Sun Chengzong said sincerely.

Old Ghost Sun's personality is as domineering as his thunder magic. Would he apologize?

"I think we should be going to their door to demand an explanation," Chen Mu chuckled.

"How could that be!" Sun Chengzong quickly explained, "My Sun family has always adhered to the family motto of 'it is better to resolve enmity than to create it.' We have always been kind to others, please believe me, sir!"

Chen Mu's face darkened: "So you're secretly killing your enemy to settle a score?"

That's exactly what Sun Wuhuan did back then!
Sun Chengzong felt a chill run down his spine; this man had a grudge against the Sun family!
Sun Chengzong thought angrily, "Which bastard has this grudge against this guy?"

Why didn't we kill this guy?!

"The restrictions you've set up are meant to isolate the inside from the outside, right?" Chen Mu suddenly smiled knowingly. "In other words, no one outside will be able to detect what's happening here, right?"

Sun Chengzong's heart pounded wildly: "No, no, no, you can't touch us, or my ancestor will not let you off!"

"Heh, is it possible that he never intended to let me go?"

Sun Chengzong's heart clenched, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind: Had they run into the real culprit this time?!

"Third Uncle, help! He is..."

Click!

Before he could speak, an invisible hand suddenly covered his face, squeezing his skin out of shape.

The next moment, a tremendous force struck, accompanied by a cracking sound at the neck, and the cervical vertebrae snapped instantly.

Sun Chengzong's head was folded backward, his neck and trachea were pulled and squeezed, his eyes rolled around and his face turned red, but he couldn't utter a single word.

Feeling the struggle emanating from within a hundred miles of the Qi barrier, Chen Mu was helpless.

The higher one's cultivation level, the less human-like they become. Even with a broken cervical vertebra, Sun Chengzong is still alive and well.

The neck was like a rubber hose, stretched to a great extent, yet showing no signs of breaking.

Chen Mu looked down at Sun Chengzong with a smile and said, "Don't be impatient, I'll give you a quick death soon."

Five Ghosts Moving Mountains!

Suddenly, plumes of black smoke rose from beneath everyone's feet.

Like a monstrous maw, it swiftly enveloped Sun Chengzong and the other men in black robes, devouring them completely in an instant.

Chen Mu looked up at the dense forest in the distance.

"You've been watching for so long, it's time to come out." Chen Mu looked at Sun Wujiu standing in the shadows with great interest.

……

“This insidious and cunning technique…you killed Sun Chengye, didn’t you?” Sun Wujiu stepped out of the shadows.

"I guess Sun Chengye came to you because he was interested in your alchemy skills."

"The methods used are nothing more than coercion and enticement."

“But you completely disregarded the threat from my Sun family patriarch and that very night you suddenly struck a ruthless blow, killing him right outside the Golden Summit of Jade Spring Mountain.” Sun Wujiu looked at Chen Mu with amusement.

"What kind of threat made you feel threatened, that made you willing to confront my Sun family patriarch directly rather than risk killing Sun Chengye overnight?"

Sun Wujiu's lips curled up: "It's the gourd sword case! It's Sun Wuhuan!"

"Sun Wuhuan's death must be related to you!"

"That's why you went to such lengths to kill and silence witnesses!"

Chen Mu listened quietly, but couldn't help but sigh inwardly. He had tried his best to conceal his true intentions, but for some reason, this person still saw through his disguise.

"Are you wondering where you slipped up?" Sun Wujiu asked with a playful tone.

"Actually, the problem isn't with you, but with Sun Wuhuan." "Back then, you were refining pills in the General Affairs Office of Wuyan Mountain, which was Sun Wuhuan's territory."

“Normally, he would definitely use threats and inducements to force you to refine pills for him to earn white jade money, which would inevitably cause some turmoil.”

"Given my good brother's greed, you wouldn't even be a chance for Sun Chengye to recruit you."

"His act of having no conflict with Sun Wuhuan was actually his biggest flaw."

Chen Mu's expression was strange.

He truly hadn't expected that not being exploited by Sun Wuhuan would become an abnormal phenomenon, and that Sun Wujiu would discover it instead.

Chen Mu couldn't help but grit his teeth.

Sun Wuhuan's character as a ruthless and greedy man is so firmly established!

He squinted at Sun Wujiu opposite him, and suddenly realized: "You want to keep the gourd sword box for yourself?"

Sun Wujiu had long suspected him, yet he only came before him today.

This shows that the other party didn't even tell Sun Jian their suspicions! Internal strife within the Sun family?

And just now he watched me kill the Sun family members. Using me to silence them?
Thus……

Chen Mu's eyes hardened: "There's absolutely no need for us to start a fight. I can just give you that gourd."

"The gourd sword box is indeed in your hands!" Sun Wujiu's heart skipped a beat, then he frowned: "You would be willing to part with it?"

There is a door!

Chen Mu was overjoyed: "I'm willing to part with it! That thing is useless to me and will only bring me trouble. It's a complete waste."

"Aren't you afraid that if I take the things, I'll turn around and report you to the Ancestor?" Sun Wujiu narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.

“If you keep the gourd sword box for yourself, then you’ve become my accomplice,” Chen Mu said with a smile.

"If Sun Jian knew, would he spare you?"

"And how will the rest of the Sun family deal with you?"

Sun Wujiu's face immediately turned ugly.

If the direct descendants of the eldest son's family knew that they possessed the gourd sword box, they might directly pin the blame for Sun Wuhuan's death on themselves, and then take the opportunity to plunder and seize all the resources in their hands!

“Your ancestor, Sun Jian, is not a reasonable person,” Chen Mu said quietly. “Do you think he would listen to your sophistry?”

Sun Wujiu couldn't help but clench his fists.

"The gourd sword case is quite valuable; are you really willing to give it to me?"

Become!

Chen Mu was thrilled: "I do have to suffer a little loss. Of course, if the Sun family makes any moves, it would be best if you could let me know."

So that's how it is. In the end, he was still afraid of retaliation from the Sun family. Sun Wujiu suddenly realized.

In this case……

"Done!"

Chen Mu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"readily!"

"Let's make a vow with a high five, to advance and retreat together." Sun Wujiu walked up to Chen Mu and solemnly raised his right hand.

Chen Mu solemnly extended his palm: "From now on, we're allies!"

Snapped.

The two palms gently touched together.

Sun Wujiu immediately grinned with joy.

"Seven Killings Binding Yin!"

Strands of gray silk suddenly burst forth from his palm, rapidly spreading upwards along Chen Mu's arm.

A chilling aura suddenly enveloped Chen Mu's entire body, as if it were about to freeze all his life force in an instant.

"Why do you think I've been rambling on for so long?"

"I'm afraid you'll disappear underground."

Sun Wujiu laughed heartily as he watched Chen Mu being instantly bound by the gray silk threads.

"What are you thinking about? How do you plan to escape?" Sun Wujiu stared at Chen Mu with interest.

"Once trapped by my Yin Binding Seven Kills, even the boundless strength of the Heavenly Demon Heretic will not be able to break free."

"You can't possibly do it!"

Sun Wujiu said calmly, "Tell me where the gourd is, and I'll give you a quick death."

"Otherwise, once your flesh and blood are corrupted and your magic power is tainted by the Yin Killing Curse, you will truly be unable to live or die."

"Not going to talk? Not willing to give up? Then try to break free." Sun Wujiu said with a mocking smile.

"Our Sun family operates in secrecy, and no one knows about it."

"There are two separate laws separating this place, so no one will find out."

"I have plenty of time to play with you slowly."

"So, no one knows you were here tonight, right?" Chen Mu, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.

Sun Wujiu frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"

Chen Mu's lips suddenly curled up: "So, you mean even if you die, the Sun family won't know who killed you, right!"

"You?" Sun Wujiu suddenly felt something was wrong. The person in front of him was too calm. Since being restrained, his expression hadn't changed at all!
"Why do you think I listened to your rambling for so long?" Chen Mu grinned, revealing a mouthful of fine white teeth.

"I'm afraid you'll fly away!"

Possessed by five ghosts!

In an instant, Chen Mu's body surged with energy, and the Yin Binding Killing Curse binding him shattered one by one!

The continuous, ear-piercing cracking sounds made Sun Wujiu tremble uncontrollably.

This situation only occurs when the opponent's magical power and strength are more than five times greater than one's own!
Before he could react, the hand that had been touching him suddenly swelled up.

Its skin churned, and the muscles beneath resembled countless long snakes, thrashing and intertwining.

In the blink of an eye, his palms grew as large as palm fans.

Snapped!
An air explosion.

The large palm of the palm instantly grasped his hand in its palm.

A rough voice, like the shouts of a thousand people, suddenly rang out overhead.

"You caught me? No, no, no..."

"I've caught you!"
