Chapter 688: 0689 Bold Move! (Third Update)

Gazing at the sky, his chest bore a bloody hole, and there wasn’t a single part of him unharmed.

Tang Feng hadn’t been in such a sorry state in a long time, but fortunately, he had survived and escaped from the hands of the two Mu Clan elders.

If it weren’t for his life-risking strike at the last moment, he would likely no longer be able to see the view before him.

Cough, cough...

His chest in severe pain, Tang Feng didn’t dare to breathe too deeply, because it would aggravate the wound. The torn flesh was already a blurred mess, and he hardly had the strength to heal himself.

Ye Qiu!

That damned runt in the martial world, if not for him, he wouldn’t have ended up in such a plight, nearly losing his life.

In this fight, Tang Feng had traded injury for life. He ended up like this, but the two elders from the Mu Clan didn’t fare much better either.

During the battle at the Mythical realm, even the elders from one of the three great ancient clans like the Mu Clan would be wounded.

"Once I recover, even if you flee to the mortal world, I will kill you," Tang Feng gritted his teeth and said.

At the moment, he was hidden far enough and had concealed his breath; it would be very difficult for those two Mu Clan elders to find him.

Tang Feng attributed all the injuries he had suffered to Ye Qiu, with anger simmering in his heart as he slowly healed his wounds.

Elsewhere, the two Mu Clan elders had sustained some injuries, but they were far lighter than Tang Feng’s. After all, the two of them had joined forces. It was just unfortunate that in the end, Tang Feng had managed to escape.

Mu Canshou felt a throbbing pain in his head as he slowly regained consciousness. Touching the back of his head, his eyes suddenly flashed. Where was that guy?

He looked around and saw only the two Mu Clan elders meditating, with several young members of the clan standing guard.

"He escaped?" Mu Canshou felt disappointed in his heart. At the critical moment, Ye Qiu had used him as a shield and had even knocked him out in the end, how detestable!

Mu Canshou straightened his clothes, preparing to stand up when suddenly, he felt something was missing. He touched his chest again. Where was the cultivation technique of the Mu Clan? His pouch was gone as well...

When he thought back to how Ye Qiu had come to help him up, Mu Canshou’s expression suddenly froze. He came to a realization. That guy not only knocked him out but also took all his belongings.

Ah!

Mu Canshou’s veins bulged with rage, his eyebrows shot up, and his aura flared, startling the two Mu Clan elders awake.

"Canshou, you’re awake!" The elders were overjoyed to see Mu Canshou awake.

"Elders," Mu Canshou roared, venting some of the pent-up rage in his heart, but because he couldn’t take it out on Ye Qiu, it still left a knot in his chest.

"He ran away!" Mu Canshou said in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the two Mu Clan elders darkened, "It was our negligence, we didn’t expect to be exploited by this youngster and almost cost you your life."

"It’s not the fault of the two elders, it’s just that this guy is too despicable and treacherous!" Mu Canshou said coldly.

"As long as you’re alright, that’s what matters. We will catch him sooner or later. This kid used us to deal with a mythical realm expert. We underestimated him, next time we see him, we certainly won’t let him off easily," another Mu Clan elder who was more seriously injured spoke up. They had realized too late that all their efforts had been in vain as they had been duped by Ye Qiu.

"What about that mythical realm expert?" Mu Canshou thought of Tang Feng, who had fought with the two elders, and couldn’t help but ask.

"He escaped. That fellow launched a desperate attack and, in our moment of negligence, he slipped away. However, his injuries are such that he won’t recover for at least a year and a half," one of the Mu Clan elders said with certainty.

Mu Canshou shook his shoulder. He had been sent flying by a palm strike from Tang Feng, his shoulder shattered. Now that he relaxed, the pain immediately surged to his heart and his vision started to darken, his body swaying.

Seeing this, an elder immediately supported Mu Canshou, who was about to fall, and sighed, "It’s good that it’s not a fatal injury, otherwise, we two really would have no face to return to the clan."

The group abandoned their trip to the Tang Clan and returned to the Mu Clan, taking Mu Canshou back home.

As the crowd from the Mu Clan gradually moved away, Ye Qiu, who had been lying flat on the ground without revealing a trace of breath, finally let out a sigh of relief. He hadn’t fled far but had instead hidden along the way, wanting to make sure whether Tang Feng had been killed by the Mu Clan elders.

The power Tang Feng displayed at the last moment was another lesson for Ye Qiu. At the final instant, the burst of power that Tang Feng exhibited gave even the distant Ye Qiu a chilling realization of just how formidable a full-force attack from someone in the mythical realm could be.

The conversations between Mu Canshou and the two Mu Clan elders reached Ye Qiu’s ears. Taking things from Mu Canshou was a spur of the moment decision by Ye Qiu. After all, he had already offended this pride of the Mu Clan to the death. Taking a bit more from him wasn’t much, especially since he left Mu Canshou alive. Otherwise, in that situation, with just a bit more effort, Ye Qiu could have killed him.

The reason Ye Qiu hadn’t dealt a killing blow was because he didn’t want to completely fall out with the Mu Clan at that moment. If he had killed Mu Canshou, even though he planned to frame Tang Feng, those clan elders were no fools. A careful investigation would have revealed the truth, and then he would become the Mu Clan’s sworn target.

Having witnessed the strength of the mythical realm, Ye Qiu suppressed his burning desire for vengeance. Now was not the time to declare war on the three ancient clans. With his current strength, he was far too weak; a single mythical realm individual was enough to send him into disarray.

Let alone the three ancient clans, even the power of the Tang Clan alone was more than he could handle.

After experiencing the ancient clans’ power, Ye Qiu acutely realized his own shortcomings. He may not be afraid of the young prodigies of the ancient clans, but behind those prodigies, there were loads of mythical realm experts, and even stronger beings. If he were to thoroughly enrage the three ancient clans, hiding in the secular world would be useless.

For now, his only option was to bide his time, keep his real identity hidden, quietly enhance his strength, and build up his power. When he no longer feared the mythical realm experts, he would have a sliver of confidence to confront the three ancient clans head-on.

All these thoughts had been considered by Ye Qiu while Tang Feng and the two Mu Clan elders were fighting. His previous plans made in the Great Emperor’s tomb were entirely overturned. He deeply realized that seeking revenge for the Dugu family was not a simple matter; it called for long-term planning.

In fact, upon careful consideration, even with Mo Lao’s inscrutable power being unable to shake the three ancient clans, should Ye Qiu continue his blind arrogance, even Mo Lao might not be able to save him in the end.

"Revenge, must be sought slowly." Ye Qiu’s eyes flickered. A gentleman’s revenge is not too late, even after ten years. Give him three years, he believed that by then he would have the strength to compete with the three ancient clans.

Still not strong enough. If he had been powerful enough, he wouldn’t have been chased by an elder of a mid-tier ancient clan, nor would he need to rely on someone else’s power to survive.

"I will eventually let the name of the Dugu family resonate throughout the ancient lands again; I still have many opportunities to become stronger!" Ye Qiu murmured to himself.

After contemplating for a while, Ye Qiu gathered his thoughts and suddenly remembered the severely injured Tang Feng who had escaped.

"The Mu Clan elder said Tang Feng’s injuries wouldn’t heal in a year and a half. This battle must have injured him badly!" Ye Qiu’s eyes flashed. If Tang Feng recovered, he would surely seek vengeance on him at the first opportunity. Even if he couldn’t act personally, he would use the power of the Tang Clan against him, not to mention that Ye Qiu carried the Great Emperor level opportunity and the Sumeru bag that Tang Feng coveted.

"This is a hazard!" Ye Qiu’s mind stirred, and after weighing his options, he stopped hiding and slowly followed the direction Tang Feng had fled.

Ye Qiu had a bold idea. If he succeeded, perhaps, he could slay a god!
