“Thankfully, the storage bag is still here!”
After gathering half of Luo Lie’s body and eliminating the key members of the Luo Family, Xu Mu slapped an escape talisman on his body and chased after the direction where Luo Lie’s upper half fled.
With his powerful spiritual perception, he finally caught up with Luo Lie’s fragment after chasing for hundreds of miles.
However, he was now reduced to a sloppy mess.
Several beasts were feasting at the side!
Obviously, with only half a body left and without his storage bag, he had no ability to fly. After the escape light disappeared, he just fell from the sky.
“What an unlucky guy!”
Xu Mu sighed and took out several dozen Soul Expelling Talismans.
This is a tier-three talisman specifically used to annihilate soul bodies.
As the talisman burned, an invisible wave of spirit spread rapidly in all directions.
“Ah! Bastard!
The soul of a one-horned blue serpent emerged from a large tree nearby, hissing ferociously with a human voice.
It stared at Xu Mu, its blue vertical pupils filled with resentment.
“Since I’ve acted, of course, I would have thoroughly investigated! Your Luo Family’s Lu Ling Jue greatly enhances soul bodies; even merging with your own lifebound beast’s soul would allow you to survive for a long time!”
Xu Mu once again took out several dozen Soul Expelling Talismans, lightly laughed and said, “I certainly wouldn’t leave such a hidden danger. If you want to blame something, blame your own greed for staying next to your own corpse and not wanting to leave!”
Of course, Luo Lie couldn’t be entirely blamed!
Now that he is only a soul, it is very difficult for him to exist for long without nourishing from a physical body.
He originally thought the other party wouldn’t chase him, but he didn’t expect the other party to be so cautious – not only did they chase him but also brought so many Soul Expelling Talismans.
They were clearly prepared!
“Who are you really? What grudge does my Luo Family bear to warrant such extermination?”
Luo Lie roared angrily.
“If you’re talking about grudges, it’s not a significant one; mainly it’s because your grandson’s henchman extorted ten Lower-grade Spirit Stones from me!”
That’s right, the whole thing started with ten Lower-grade Spirit Stones.
If it weren’t for Jia An who blackmailed him for ten Lower-grade Spirit Stones in the name of Luo Xu and aroused his killing intent, maybe nothing would have happened.
“Ten Lower-grade Spirit Stones?!”
Luo Lie received no response. Under the effect of the Soul Expelling Talisman, his soul body was melting away like the spring snow.
Without a body, the soul is just a floating rootless duckweed.
His animal soul had been shattered several times and was already extremely weak.
So his soul didn’t last long; filled with deep resentment and unwillingness, it completely dissipated between heaven and earth.
Xu Mu then burned Luo Lie’s body into ash, scattering it across the snowy sky.

[Luck Value: It can be used to improve skill proficiency, but it cannot directly improve cultivation!]
While riding on a Flying Boat to Liyang City, Xu Mu suddenly heard the System’s voice in his mind.
“Ying Ying has given birth! It’s a girl!”
A smile appeared on his face.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t be with his wife.
“I must make it up to Ying Ying when I get back!”
With an excited heart, Xu Mu arrived in Liyang City two days later and hurried home without delay.
Outside, snow was falling heavily; inside, the room was warm and cozy.
A small charcoal stove was placed in the center of the room, and the aromatic rice in the sand pot was spreading its fragrance.
Ye Yingying’s black hair fell loosely; she leaned against the head of the bed, her round cheeks slightly pale.
“Ying Er, I’ve put you through a lot!”
Xu Mu touched his wife’s cheek, a hint of shame in his eyes.
His absence at the birth of his child was indeed an oversight.
“For my husband, Ying Er is willing to do anything. The only thing is—,” Ye Yingying revealed a trace of disappointment in her eyes: “I couldn’t give you a son!”
Xu Mu took Ye Yingying’s hand and laughed: “Why do you blame yourself? I was hoping you could give me a hundred daughters!”
“Humph! I don’t want to, I want to give you a son!” Ye Yingying coquettishly said.
No matter how excellent a daughter is, she eventually has to get married. Only a boy can inherit the family business and make the family prosper.
