Mortal: Starting from replicating everything in Maple Valley

Wang Mu attended the wedding banquet; this person was the main character of the wedding.

Liu Yanfang came from afar and, despite not having an invitation, shamelessly attended the wedding banquet, all to see this person one last time.

Wang Yueguang used the Yuanling Flower as bait to lure Liu Yanfang and Fang Mu into a trap, also in order to get rid of Liu Yanfang and remove the inner demons and obsessions from her brother's heart.

It can be said that everything that happened was closely related to this person.

He then intercepted them on their way back.

Fang Mu thought that this person was trying to avenge his sister and keep the secret because things had fallen apart, and he wanted to do so at the same time.

Therefore, he personally came to intercept and kill him.

This person had a gloomy face, was at the pseudo-core cultivation level, and his hands hung naturally at his sides.

It gives people a strong sense of oppression.

It is definitely a formidable rival.

This surpasses the two fake pill assassins, male and female, that Fang Mu encountered before.

After all, this person is the head of the Wang family, and the Wang family is an ancient family that has existed for thousands of years. There must be many powerful treasures inside.

They should not be underestimated.

Fang Mu was not confident of defeating him.

"A good dog doesn't block the road. What do you mean by blocking my way? Are you perhaps seeking revenge for your sister?"

Fang Mu stopped opposite him, gripping the magic weapon in his palm, ready for battle, and asked with a solemn expression.

"My sister's death was indeed related to you, or rather, to you and Liu Yanfang!"

Upon hearing this, a look of understanding appeared in Wang Maolin's eyes.

Immediately, hatred flashed across his face, a talisman appeared in his palm, his expression twisted into a ferocious grin as he roared:

"How dare you kill my sister! Even if this matter reaches Yellow Maple Valley, it's my right to fight you to the death! A life for a life! Leave your dog's life behind!"

"etc!"

They were about to attack him, yet they acted all righteous and awe-inspiring.

Fang Mu immediately raised his hand to stop him.

Judging from his appearance, he seemed unaware of the cause and effect of the matter.

He thought Fang Mu had killed his sister for no reason.

Thinking of this, a look of understanding appeared in Fang Mu's eyes.

"What, is there anything you want to say before you die?"

Wang Maolin paused for a moment, then said sarcastically.

"Heh, don't you want to know the whereabouts of your old flame, Liu Yanfang? You know, she was at the banquet with me, but now she's vanished without a trace?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Maolin indeed showed signs of nervousness.

His relationship with Liu Yanfang lasted for nearly fifty years.

They're no different from family.

How can you just let go of something like that?

Fang Mu didn't keep them in suspense, knowing there was a huge misunderstanding involved.

And the root of all this sin is inseparable from a woman.

Fang Mu then recounted the cause and course of events.

From Wang Yueguang using the Yuanling Flower as bait to lure Liu Yanfang into a trap, to the ambush in the wilderness.

Of course, the aspects involving Fang Mu's battles were only briefly mentioned.

After all, Fang Mu didn't want his fighting style to be known by others.

After his explanation, Wang Maolin's expression became uncertain.

The overwhelming killing intent that had initially appeared on his body receded like the tide.

At the end, Fang Mu added:

"By the way, the reason I returned to the valley this time is to expose the fact that your Wang family colluded with other countries to rob cultivators, attacked the mainstay of the valley, and even killed a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator."

Your Wang family, haha, just wait to be wiped out!

Fang Mu felt a great sense of threat from Wang Maolin.

But confident that with dozens of Heavenly Thunderbolts on him, escaping would never be a problem.

At this point, he decided to lay everything out, hoping to get some benefits out of this person.

Seeing Wang Maolin's blank expression, clearly indicating that he was also kept in the dark, he understood.

The truth has come to light.

In this ambush targeting Liu Yanfang and him, the Wang family patriarch and all the senior members of the Wang family were deceived.

It was all orchestrated by Wang Maolin's jealous new wife.

The operation was carried out through his sister-in-law, Wang Yueguang.

If this matter gets out, the Wang family will certainly face a huge disaster.

But he also understood that Wang Maolin's wife had a powerful background, and that in the end, the matter would only fizzle out.

At most, they'll kill a few insignificant scapegoats to take the blame.

But for Fang Mu, it brought him no benefit whatsoever.

Instead, we should use this as leverage to exchange for tangible benefits from the Wang family.

He was determined to make the Wang family pay a heavy price.

Originally, Wang Maolin was deeply in love with Liu Yanfang.

But for the sake of his family's development, he still abandoned his old love.

He married a new wife who was more beneficial to the Wang family's development.

His wife came from a very prominent family; she was a direct descendant of a Core Formation elder from Yellow Maple Valley.

Wang Maolin, as the head of the family, was kept in the dark about this ambush.

He guessed that something had happened to his sister when her soul tablet shattered, which is why he came to the only way back to Huangfeng Valley to wait for the murderer.

But to their surprise, the murderer was found.

However, this also brought about the great calamity of the extermination of the Wang family.

His expression changed several times.

This matter was entirely caused by the wife.

But by then it was too late; the punishment for his wife came later.

We'll have to wait until the Wang family recovers from this crisis of annihilation.

He understood everything and realized that the key to everything was to deal with the person who controlled the Wang family's connections with outsiders and killed the manager of Huangfeng Valley.

So he forced a smile, his expression ingratiating and flattering, as if he were seeing an old friend he hadn't seen in years, and patted Fang Mu's shoulder affectionately, saying with a smile:

"Fellow Daoist Fang, we hit it off immediately. What is it about avenging my sister?"

That lowly maidservant offended you, so it's only right that she was killed.

Fellow Daoist, well done! This woman was an absolute troublemaker; she would bring disaster upon my Wang family sooner or later.

On the contrary, I should thank you, fellow Daoist, for eliminating her for me ahead of time!

As he spoke, he actually took out a bulging storage bag and stuffed it into Fang Mu's arms without saying a word.

"Good heavens! Five thousand spirit stones!"

Fang Mu was startled when he saw the number of spirit stones inside.

But he remained calm and accepted it as a matter of course.

Seeing that he accepted the gift, Wang Maolin thought to himself that things were looking promising.

He immediately waved his hand, and a set of tables and chairs appeared on the hilltop.

He invited Fang Mu to sit down.

He personally and attentively poured tea for Fang Mu.

He gestured for him to enter, then picked up the steaming tea, blew away the foam on top, and took a sip.

Then, with a serious expression, he got down to business:

"Fellow Daoist, this matter concerns the life and death of my Wang family. We absolutely cannot let Huangfeng Valley know about it! Fellow Daoist, please feel free to tell us your conditions. My Wang family will do everything in our power to meet your requests."

"Give me powerful, one-time-use treasures for Foundation Establishment level cultivators, such as talismans, etc. I want as many pill formulas as you can to enhance cultivation."

The above conditions are just the minor points; I won't go into the major parts, you can decide for yourself.

"As you yourself said, this matter concerns the survival of the Wang family. You should know better than I do what price the lives of so many members of the Wang family are worth."

Fang Mu made an outrageous demand.

He knew that Wang Maolin was the kind of person who valued family interests above all else.

In this situation, it's not unreasonable for you to set any conditions.
