Even without cheats, we must survive the apocalypse

After getting the information they wanted, Lu Mu took Murong Xue out of the teahouse. Before leaving, he dropped a spirit stone on the table. After they walked away, the feeling of powerlessness and illusion that had been weighing on the hearts of the monsters gradually disappeared.

……

"Brother Mu, do you have any plans?"

Murong Xue turned her head and glanced at Lu Mu.

"Let's save the demon first."

Lu Mu looked towards the south of the city, the cold light in his eyes revealing a hidden ferocity.

Of course, since this incident happened four days ago, if they rush over now, they can only help collect the bodies of Anyou Qianyuan. They may not even be able to collect the bodies, because the spiritual beasts in the Wanhuang Plain are so hungry that they will eat anything.

But if there is a chance, Lu Mu still wants to save that unlucky guy. At least it can help him earn some favor and respect from the Dark Thousand Kite clan.

This is the Southern Region, and as a human being, he, the "Young Master of the Lu Family", cannot receive courtesy from the demons. The demons in the Southern Region have always had some arrogance and contempt inherited from their blood, and these attitudes are undoubtedly revealed in front of humans. Unlike other places, here, they have divided the power of humans, making it impossible for them to unite. The existence of the Thousand Demon Hall has given the demons in the Southern Region an additional backbone to follow, so their arrogance will only grow.

Even if Lu Mu made his identity clear, rode on a lucky cloud, and paraded across the region with a group of clan elders, he would probably only be met with contempt.

Now, it is time to add some weight to the title of "Prince of the Holy Phoenix".

He had to type it out himself.

The demon race obeys this.

"It looks like we are about to enter the Wasteland?"

"Well, that guy just now said that the strong man from the Qingxiao Eagle Clan who was responsible for the pursuit was only at the fourth level of Pigong?"

Murong Xue blinked: "We can go and give it a try."

Lu Mu couldn't help laughing: "How about you take charge of dealing with them this time?"

He moved close to her neck, sniffing the fragrance emanating from the ends of her hair. His low voice carried a hint of seductive charm. The smell was intoxicating and made him feel a little dizzy. Even her scent seemed to have an aphrodisiac effect.

Just now in the teahouse, Lu Mu actually didn't expect Murong Xue to take direct action, but after her charm had suppressed all the monsters in the teahouse, Lu Mu realized that the well-behaved little fox who was willing to kneel at his feet at night and let him baptize her exquisite face was actually quite powerful.

Murong Xue raised her delicate chin and said, "Of course. If Brother Mu doesn't want to help drive them away, then he will have to worry more about other things."

Lu Mu's eyes gradually dimmed, because from the corner of his eye he could already see the slit in her skirt below her collarbone, and there was a rabbit in it.

His voice became hoarse: "You are stirring up trouble."

"Really?" Murong Xue glanced at him with a half-smile, "Brother Mu, can you fill me up tonight..."

Her jade fingers gently pinched the corner of her skirt and shook it.

"If you can find that demon tribe before tonight, I might as well try with you the feeling of using the world as my bed."

He uttered such obscene words into Murong Xue's ear, and his warm breath made her earlobe slowly turn dark pink.

"What if I can't find it?"

Murong Xue pouted her lips, looking both coquettish and angry.

Lu Mu reached out and stroked the skin on her soft cheek: "If you can't find it, then I'll have to let you down. I can still bear it."

"..."

Murong Xue's lips were pouted so high that Lu Mu felt he could hang a few oil bottles on them.

Lu Mu looked at her gritting her teeth and found it interesting. He suddenly reached out and pinched her nose: "Shall we set off?"

She led the way with a fierce yet delicate look, and the two quickly left from the south of the city. Outside the south of the city, chaotic spiritual energy was floating in the desolate plains, and the endless wasteland was filled with the breath of death.

……

Murong Xue and Lu Mu accompanied each other, and with the support of their true energy, they quickly flew through the air.

The Wanhuang Plain is not an endless void. There are strange mountains and hills rising one after another, and there are many densely packed caves of various shapes. Those are the nests of spiritual beasts. They live in the caves and will attack passers-by. An alarmingly fierce and fishy smell permeates the place, as if this wilderness has buried many miserable people. In such a deadly place, even if the sun is high, it is difficult to dispel the smell of death.

It was somewhat difficult to find a fleeing demon in such a vast dangerous place, but Murong Xue's perception of aura was far stronger than Lu Mu, who had already advanced to the Source Realm. She spread her spiritual thoughts to the limit, and could see everything within a radius of two or three miles.

"Brother Mu, there is a smell of blood ahead."

After about an hour, they went deep into the wilderness at full speed, and at this time, Murong Xue stopped.

She looked at the far end of the Fierce Plain. There were more hills and barren mountains over there, and the terrain was far more complex than the outermost part of the Fierce Plain. "It seems that the monster was seriously injured, and the blood loss was very fast... If that guy can hold on until now without dying, then he is really quite capable."

Even Lu Mu could clearly sense the smell of blood. If there were pursuers behind him, An You Qian Yuan would probably have nowhere to hide. His unstoppable loss of energy and blood would make him the best target.

"Keep following him. If he can only collect the bodies, then he's unlucky."

Lu Mu had no intention of stopping here.

Although I continue to look, there may not be much chance.

Murong Xue responded, and the two continued to fly forward several hundred feet.

Until they came to a steep valley in the deserted mountains, they still could not see the shadow of the Dark Thousand Kite...

But they saw several blue demon eagles flying around the rift valley and the mountain peaks.

Chapter 17: Fratricide

These green demon eagles have different shapes, are more than several feet long, have dark green wings on their backs, and their beaks are like barbs. Wherever they pass, green air currents swirl up.

The Qingxiao Eagle Clan was one of the huge sub-clans that once submitted to the Nine-winged Holy Phoenix ten thousand years ago.

Of course, to Feng Yaner, the current Qingxiao Eagle Clan is undoubtedly an enemy. The inherited bloodlines of these former sub-clans are more or less connected to the Nine-winged Holy Phoenix. Feng Yaner's bones and blood can naturally help their bloodlines evolve and reach a realm that even their ancestors have never reached.

Few people can resist this temptation, because everyone wants to become stronger, and being a master is always better than being a slave.

“They’re still looking.”

Murong Xue stopped, the strong wind raised by the Qingxiao Eagles made her skirt rustle, and even her long pink hair became messy.

"If they have not planned to search elsewhere in four days, then they are certain that the lone Dark Thousand Kite is in this complex rift valley."

Lu Mu looked at the somewhat exasperated Qingxiao Eagles. These demons must have been searching for several days, but still couldn't find them. Perhaps one of the reasons was that the Anyou Thousand Kite clan was actually very good at hiding. After they revealed their demon bodies, their bodies could blend into the shadows. As one of the major sub-clans with the closest bloodline to the Nine-winged Holy Phoenix, this unique ability was actually evolved from the Nine-color Magical Powers of the Nine-winged Holy Phoenix.

With the bloodline of Anyou Qianyuan, this ability has been passed down to this day.

"Ah, it looks like I've been discovered."

Murong Xue smiled coquettishly, she could feel several gazes cast towards her.

The sound of breaking wind followed, and two figures suddenly appeared in this deserted mountain valley. It would be strange if they did not notice them.

"Wow—!"

A sharp, piercing scream cut through the air.

The blue eagles rushed over at the same time, bringing with them a fierce blue gust of wind. Lu Muyu and Murong Xue did not move, but waited for them to surround the two. After they surrounded them, the leading blue eagle spoke in human language: "Hmm? Human?"

This question seems familiar.

"Why do the demons of the Southern Territory always find it unusual when they see humans?"

Murong Xue touched her messy hair and looked at the Qingxiao Eagle with a smile.

"…Who are you and what do you want?"

The Qingxiao Eagle who spoke human language was the strongest demon present, at the fourth level of the Pigong realm. He was very cautious because he could not sense any breath from the two humans at all. There were three possibilities: either they were very weak, or they were very strong, or they had a unique secret method that could cover up the waves caused by the escape of true energy.

Since he can stay in the air without the help of any magic weapon, he must be very strong. So whichever of the two behind it is very telling, at least it gives him the idea to act cautiously.

"We know that you are chasing a lone and seriously injured Dark Thousand Kite. Please give him some face and let him go."

Lu Mu spoke calmly, his voice was very gentle.

"Let him go?"

The leading Qingxiao Eagle sneered, "Why do you think we will give you face?"

The demon tribe in the Southern Territory does not submit to humans, and they naturally do not care about the identities of Lu Mu and Murong Xue. They don’t know, and even if they knew, they might not give them the face.

"Because if you don't give me this face, you will have to leave your life here."

Murong Xue spoke with a smile.

Lu Mu chuckled when he heard this, "You are definitely going to piss these guys off this time."

"Brother Mu, do you want to see how I deal with them?"

She blinked and looked at him with a smile on her face, her bright eyes seemed filled with stars.

"Well, let's take a look."

"Kill them!"

There was a ferocious cry in Qingxiao Eagle's last words, and they moved at the same time. The green gale was ready to go, and it was ready to kill.

As early as when this group of Qingxiao Eagles made a siege gesture, Lu Mu had no intention of letting the matter go to waste, and Murong Xue's ideas always coincided with his.

Murong Xue acted even faster.

She raised her eyebrows and smiled. She raised her right hand slightly and twisted her index finger and thumb into a lotus mark. Then, a chaotic, heavy true energy burst out from her fingertips and swept through in an instant. In the depths of her pupils, two pink whirlpools were spinning wildly.

Then, Lu Mu saw the scene of the Qingxiao Eagle tribe killing each other.

In just a moment, Murong Xue's charming magic completely infected these Qingxiao Eagles, which were only at the Hedao realm. Under the stimulation of the charming magic, the inherent brutality hidden in the blood of the demon clan was completely out of control, and their minds became unbalanced. They immediately fought each other, and in just a few breaths, the battle in the sky became extremely bloody and cruel.

The Qingxiao Eagle, which revealed its true form as a demon, used its sharp beak and hard wings to tear apart the weak parts of its own kind. In the melee, demon blood splattered and wing feathers flew. Soon, a slightly weaker Qingxiao Eagle was torn to pieces by several of its own kind and fell from the sky.

As for the fourth level demon from the Pi Palace, almost all of Murong Xue's charm was cast on him. Even though his strength was two levels higher than Murong Xue's, he could not resist the erosion of this charm.

So he killed with the greatest pleasure.

The eagle's wings swept across, and the Qingxiao Eagle, which was weaker than him, was cut into several pieces. The eagle's claws stretched out, and it grabbed and killed a Qingxiao Eagle that had just swallowed the blood of its companion, and dug out its demon pill and stuffed it into its mouth to eat.

"Hmm... it's very smooth."

Lu Mu had already seen the horror of Murong Xue's magic.

When she becomes stronger... Lu Mu has already imagined a scene where hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the two dynasties are facing each other, ready for battle, and she only needs a glance to make hundreds of thousands of people fight each other.

“After all, this is what I was born to do.”

Murong Xue stayed close to Lu Mu's body, and there was no need for her to do anything else, because the Qingxiao Eagle of the fourth level of the Pi Palace could kill all of his kind, and under the influence of the charm magic, he would go find the spirit beasts in the ferocious plain and continue killing them until he died of exhaustion.

"Have you found any trace of the Dark Thousand Kite?"

They no longer needed to worry about the fight in the sky. Lu Mu was more concerned about the Dark Thousand Kite hiding here. Murong Xue was extremely sensitive to scents. Even if he had the ability to hide in shadows, it would be unlikely for him to hide from her.

“I found it.”

She took Lu Mu and flew into the rift below, but did not land at the deepest part, but stopped at the edge of the rift.

Within a two-mile radius of the steep mountain rift, the air was filled with the smell of the lost blood and energy of the Dark Thousand Kite. The Blue Sky Eagles chased here by following the loss of blood and energy, so they naturally knew that the Dark Thousand Kite could not have run away to some other place and was hiding here. However, this place was not small, so it was not easy to find.

But Murong Xue soon discovered it.

"Come out, I know you're watching."

Her voice was amplified by the rift and traveled deep.

Chapter 18: Where did the Holy Phoenix Prince come from?

Deep in the rift valley, it was dark, yet there seemed to be a vague shadow.

"Woo~"

A low cry came from the depths of the shadow, surging several times. From its mouth, a shadow slowly climbed up, approaching the top of the rift where the sunlight could fall. Then, the shadow rose from the ground, and Lu Mu and Murong Xue both briefly saw the demon body of An You Qian Yuan.

It was a demon bird with a purple-black body. Its wings were injured, but it could still flap. Its dark green eyes seemed to be filled with gloomy pain. When it saw Lu Mu and Murong Xue, its demon body did not last long and turned into a human body.

What finally appeared in front of Lu Mu and Murong Xue was a young woman. She looked pale and haggard, her clothes were disheveled, and there was a hideous scar on her chest.

The injury was indeed serious.

After she stopped using her secret method to conceal her breath and body movements, anyone could see that she was at the end of her strength.

Although he looked miserable, his eyes were still filled with an unyielding light, which was the flame of pride of the Dark Thousand Kite clan, and would never be extinguished.

"Where are you humans from?"

She opened her mouth and her voice was dry and hoarse.

Lu Mu has a great reputation outside, but in the Southern Territory, there are probably only a handful of people who know him, and they are all humans. The demons in the Southern Territory will not deliberately pay attention to human geniuses, as that would be a bit of a lowering of their standards.
