Chapter 450: Chapter 418: Knock Out_1

“It’s my turn now!”

As his words fell, Xu Mu forcefully gripped his left hand. The purple crystal rod, sturdier than metal and rock combined, shattered into pieces with a crackling sound, instantly devolving into fragments scattered over the ground.

“Roar!”

Upon seeing his weapon destroyed, the transformed Xiao Tian Yuan couldn’t contain his rage, baring his sharp fangs as he lunged towards Xu Mu.

He had lost his rationality completely, only a single instinct remained.

Defeat him! Kill him!

Xu Mu reached out, casually as though sketching a divine stroke, his hand immediately came to rest atop Xiao Tian Yuan’s ferocious head, covered in black fur.

His wrist exerted a forceful push downwards.

Bang!

Xiao Tian Yuan, who was two heads taller than him, was driven fiercely into the ground.

A dull, thunderous noise rang out as Xiao Tian Yuan’s face was forced to meet the ground, his entire head buried in the soil.

The earth trembled as though an earthquake had occurred.

Xu Mu slowly retrieved his hand, Xiao Tian Yuan, sprawled on the ground, shuddered slightly. His transformed body rapidly regressed, soon returning to his original form.

“Once he wakes up, have him come and see me to fulfill his promise.”

After speaking, he strolled off at a leisurely pace towards the city, hands clasped behind his back.

The two Martial Arts Grandmasters stood still, unable to regain their composure for a long time.

The intensity of the battle had profoundly shaken them, altering their perceptions.

On the other hand, as Xu Mu crossed into the city, the originally hidden residents started to peek out from their hiding places.

Even though the battle between the two had been brief, the tumult it caused was substantial, even eclipsing the noise of the explosion that had rocked the eastern part of the city in the morning.

Such a huge commotion, coupled with Xiao Tian Yuan’s reputation, was simply too hard to ignore.

Especially those from large families and entities, who were keeping a constant watch.

If it weren’t for their lack of strength, preventing them from approaching the center of the battlefield, they would have sent people to monitor earlier.

“He… how is he unharmed?”

Seeing Xu Mu enter the city unscathed, onlookers who had been paying close attention to the battle were taken aback.

Could it be that Xu Mu wasn’t involved in the fight earlier?

But who else could have attracted the attention of the Martial Saint and furthermore, engage in such an intense battle?

Could there have been a third party involved?

People speculated all sorts of possibilities, however, there was one that did not come to mind – that Xu Mu had comprehensively defeated the famous Xiao Tian Yuan, the Martial Saint that defended the Da Xia Nation, without suffering a single scratch.

This was simply beyond everyone’s imagination. In their subconscious mind, it was an impossibility.

However, they all agreed on one thing.

That was, Xu Mu was not to be disturbed.

Whether or not outside intervention was involved, the fact that Xu Mu could leave unscathed from the Martial Saint was proof that no one in the current Da Xia Nation could restrain him.

“Who would’ve thought I’d witness the rise of a legend!”

The spectators couldn’t help exclaiming internally.

Judging from Xu Mu’s age, he would inevitably become legendary as long as he doesn’t encounter mishaps in the future.

He might even enter into the realm of myth, to become a deity!

The battle outside the city ended abruptly, save for the sound at the beginning, no news was leaked.

Because the only spectators were the two Martial Arts Grandmasters. If they didn’t speak, who else would know the details?

As for the news that the National Wusheng was overpowered by someone with ease, the two of them did not dare to spread the word, no matter how courageous they were, in the end, they could only swallow this news.

Yang Jiang and Zhang Ergou were the first to inquire from Xu Mu, but he dismissed them with a wave of his hand, asking them to focus on their own cultivation rather than such trivial matters.

It is not that he meant to protect Xiao Tian Yuan’s dignity, but rather he was simply not in the mood to explain.

In fact, even if he didn’t say, the two of them were able to guess most of it. The outcome of their conjecture was so incredible, that even they themselves couldn’t believe in it.
