Chapter 300: Chapter 269: Anger Born of Shame_1

“You’re courting death!”

Murong Shun angrily retorted.

At first, when he saw Xu Mu being lectured by the second prince and the seventh princess, he thought Xu Mu was easy to bully, so he thought of putting Xu Mu in his place to establish his authority.

Otherwise, if others found out, that Xu Mu was afraid of the people of the second prince and the seventh princess, yet not afraid of the people of the grand prince, he would lose face.

Both the grand prince and the seventh princess have always been the most powerful contenders for the throne. Even for insignificant matters like this, he must stand and fight to save face for the grand prince.

He had never imagined that Xu Mu was so audacious and actually dared to talk back to him.

He was somewhat embarrassed!

When facing the people of the second prince and the seventh princess, he was completely subdued without hesitation, why does he have to make things difficult for himself?

Murong Shun was confused and furious.

“Your mouth is kind of foul!” Xu Mu said, frowning.

Initially, he didn’t want to cause trouble, he wanted to keep his abilities hidden, and there was no need because he had already learned the spell up there.

He still hadn’t memorized the spell on the present tripod, and he had to look at it,

In his opinion, he was already very polite by standing far away and watching. Others didn’t say anything, Murong Shun must be treating him like trash.

“Damn it!”

Seeing he not only refused to apologize but even dared to talk back, Murong Shun was truly outraged this time.

The corner of his eyes seemed to catch others’ mocking faces.

His face was hot as he blushed with shame, completely losing rationality in his anger.

“Die!!”

Murong Shun spat out a flying sword, which turned into a streak of light and shot towards Xu Mu.

No one expected Murong Shun to dare to make a move here.

Xu Mu’s gaze turned cold, with a squeeze of his fingers, and he used the Space Grasp Skill, eight arms simultaneously bombarded the flying sword.

Clang!

A sound of metal clashing rang out, Murong Shun’s flying sword was blasted back.

“Damn it!”

Murong Shun’s face twisted as he squeezed the Finger Jue, and the flying sword instantly turned into hundreds of sword shadows, exuding a fierce Sword Qi, and shot towards Xu Mu.

Xu Mu did not hesitate either, his body radiated with the scorching sun’s real flame, the power of the Space Grasp Skill greatly increased, and clashed with the flying sword.

Murong Shun’s strength and cultivation far surpassed Wang Yongan’s, so Xu Mu had no choice but to bring out most of his strength to fight back right from the start, or he could be seriously injured.

“This guy is so powerful!”

Seeing Xu Mu block Murong Shun’s attack, the crowd was shocked.

The grand prince’s team also consisted of two people, besides Murong Shun, there was another called Jiang Wu. Both were in the late Golden Pill stage. Jiang Wu was a Soul Cultivator in the eighth stage of the Golden Pill, while Murong Shun was an Alchemist in the tier nine of the Golden Pill stage, his strength ranked in the top three among all of them.

Xu Mu was only in the middle stage of the Golden Pill, and appeared quite old. Both his combat power and cultivation should be at the bottom.

No one thought Xu Mu could last more than two rounds.

So no one expected that Xu Mu not only withstood the attack, but also seemed to have a feeling of equally matched strength.

“This guy has such strength, why was he so weak just now?”

The crowd was somewhat confused, even if he was hiding his abilities, wasn’t he hiding it too excessively?

What they didn’t know was, Xu Mu was just too lazy to take action.

If it weren’t for learning all the spells on the tripod, he wouldn’t have taken action this time.

“Brother Wu, what do we do now? Should we help?” Xie Chu asked, looking at the fighting duo.

“Well..”

Wu Chun hesitated for a moment, wondering whether to take action or not.

If he took action, it was equivalent to openly offending the grand prince. On the other hand, as allies, it seemed somewhat wrong to not help.
