Chapter 490: Chapter 457 Body Repair_1

“Alright, everyone, you can leave now.”

Lu Jingkong looked rather annoyed as she shooed away her subordinates who were there falling over each other to flatter her.

If she had won, she wouldn’t have been bothered, but she had lost.

These people were not praising her, they were in fact, slapping her in the face.

Yue was laughing unreservedly on the side.

Xu Mu did not react much to the situation.

“Fellow Lu, I didn’t expect you would gather so many subordinates, asserting your authority here,” said Xu Mu.

“When I first arrived here, I was saved by the queen of this country. After her death, these people insisted that I take the throne. Having nothing better to do, I agreed, and had them collect some useful information for me.”

As she spoke, Lu Jingkong led the duo deeper into the city.

They didn’t land at the entrance of the Imperial City, but went directly to the palace.

Leaving their two beasts outside, she escorted the pair inside alone.

They passed through successive layers of palaces and guards until they reached a place that looked like a treasury.

She opened the door to the treasury which was empty, void of glittering gold and silver treasure, save for a giant jade box made from bone-chilling jade.

As Lu Jingkong opened it, there lay a hand and foot inside, their cut edges perfectly smooth.

“A hand? A foot?”

Seeing what was inside, Yue was initially shocked, then quickly realized.

Wasn’t Elder Brother Mu missing a hand and a foot?

Wait, was it this woman who cut him?

She looked at Lu Jingkong with compounded hostility.

Lu Jingkong was confused at her hostility.

“The arm, I found at the same time as the weapon. I expected that you might have also come here. As for the severed leg, it was found by some of my subordinates. There’s an interesting story behind that,” said Lu Jingkong with a laugh.

“Interesting? What happened?” Yue asked curiously.

What kind of interesting story could a severed leg have?

Lu Jingkong didn’t keep it a secret

“Your brother’s severed leg, although detached from his body, still possesses tremendous power. Initially, the person who found it, fused it with his own body and displayed formidable strength, attracting many to fight for it.”

“Fused with the body? How is that even possible?” Yue was puzzled, all of it sounded just like a tall tale.

A severed limb, moreover one that has been disconnected for so long without decaying, how could it fuse with a person?

Wait, could it be like the prosthetic Elder Brother Mu made?

“Speaking of which, I found it quite strange too. Even a pure body cultivator preserves his body from decaying, yours somehow managed to fuse with a foreign body. It’s the first time I’ve seen anything like this!” said Lu Jingkong.

After getting this severed arm and leg, she had studied them for quite a while. The deeper she went the more amazed she became.

This didn’t look anything like a normal arm or a leg.

Having fought with Xu Mu, she realized not only were his limbs unusual, but his body as well.

“It’s just that my primary cultivation method is a bit unique, don’t be too surprised.”

Xu Mu didn’t intend to explain in detail.

A primary cultivation method is of utmost importance to a cultivator and isn’t something to be disclosed casually.

Because your enemies may figure out your weakness by learning your methods and exploit it during a battle.

Some cultivation methods may appear to be strong. If the enemies knew their weaknesses, they would be utterly useless.

That’s why many cultivators would rather die than reveal any part of their cultivation methods, even though they could sell them for a great deal of resources.

Lu Jingkong, being an experienced cultivator, of course, understood this. Seeing Xu Mu not wanting to talk about it, she didn’t pry.

Yue was curious, but if Xu Mu wasn’t speaking, she naturally would not ask.
