Chapter 245: Chapter 214: Short Life Span 1

When you cannot protect something, the best way to cut your losses is to let it go,

Even if it’s hard to part with!

Nonetheless, whether or not to reveal the spatial crack will depend on how things unfold.

Xu Mu first contacts Xu Yin, who lives in the Cang Ming Ocean Territory, using his second avatar. He asks her to monitor the spatial crack and inform him if anything unusual happens.

These avatars, besides helping him find things, are great for conveying messages. However, it’s a pity that there isn’t a way to create infinite avatars, and every time his original body divides, it is influenced.

After arranging the spatial crack issue, Xu Mu retreats to a separate room in his flying boat. He then retrieves three other people from his spirit beast bag, in addition to his original body.

Except for the original body, the other three no longer exhibited signs of life.

“Ah!”

Xu Mu sighed.

This event had been anticipated.

Not only that, but the very souls of these three are fragmented, with only a trace of residual soul remaining.

The cause was not only their life force being burnt away, but their very souls were also consumed in the fire.

Only by relying on a beast’s soul did Xu Mu manage to escape calamity. Otherwise, even his avatars and puppets would have been of no help.

The woman’s power was too strong, it’s simply beyond his ability to counteract.

But, I swear I will take my revenge one day!

That’s a promise from Xu Mu.

Moreover, his daughter had also been taken by that woman. He must go find her.

However, it won’t be easy to enter the Spirit Realm.

Xu Mu shook his head, indicating that he must devise a long-term plan.

He took off the masks of the three, revealing three faces that were extremely old. Even their parents would probably not recognize them.

Xu Mu could not help but sigh again, his own situation was not much better.

He was only able to hang on because his soul was still present.

“Since you guys are already dead, I’ll take these possessions of yours. I will avenge you when the time comes.”

He took all the valuable things off their bodies, then burned the corpses to ashes.

However, among these corpses, there were a few strands of black aura that simply could not be eradicated.

Xu Mu could only temporarily seal them using an artifact.

“This black aura is likely the Demonic Qi originating from the puppet!”

Xu Mu’s face didn’t look too good.

The toughness of this Demonic Qi exceeded his expectations and also indirectly confirmed the strength of that puppet.

Originally, the Demonic Qi had not been released because it was in a small space and the puppet had self-sealed. Now with the puppet’s body breaking down and the entrance to the space being opened, the Demonic Qi would inevitably spread out.

Xu Mu did not believe that the Old Ancestor of Tongyou, with just a trace of residual soul, could suppress the spreading of the Demonic Qi.

The Old Ancestor of Tongyou might have been eroded by the Demonic Qi and gone mad.

Under such circumstances, the spreading of the Demonic Qi was inevitable.

Xu Mu had a premonition that this would be a huge disaster!

Neither the Liyang Sect nor the Tianhe Sect could stop it!

“Do your best and leave the rest to fate!”

Xu Mu decided to inform the two sects about the happenings within the small space through a secret channel. How they plan to respond is not within his range of responsibilities.

This time leaving White River Marketplace, Xu Mu neither planned to settle in Liyang City or Tianhe City. To avoid being affected, he planned to go directly to the Central Region.

The reasons for this, apart from not believing that the Tianhe Sect could hold up against the disaster, were to prevent himself from becoming the target of public criticism.

Now that the demonic disaster hadn’t erupted yet and he was already fleeing…

Once the connection between these two occurrences were discovered, a hunt for him was inevitable.

Xu Mu would not risk his life.

He could only hope not to be discovered before he crosses the Tianhe Sect’s territory.

To avoid attracting attention, the two ships would split up later. Xu Mu planned to depart first with his family. As for his confidantes, arrangements would be made by Chi Feiyan when she received the news.

Those who wish to go to the Central Region would be escorted, and those who didn’t would be given new identities to settle in a market place far away from the Cloud Peak Mountain Range.

Fortunately, the organization has had good growth over the years, otherwise it would be difficult to arrange for so many people in such a short timeframe.
