1009 Founding Emperors Sword, Qin Mus Mouth (2/2)

There were still a thousand miles between the stone coffin and copper coffin. At this moment, Qin Mu saw a middle-aged man and was stunned.

\”Founding Emperor?\”

That middle-aged man had a sword by his waist and looked like an ordinary traveler who had made a long journey. He appeared to be lonely.

Although Founding Emperor Qin Ye's steps weren't quick, he was still faster than the copper coffin carried by the white skeleton gods. Soon, he was nearing the copper coffin.

The copper coffin and those white skeleton gods shook abruptly, and the coffin cover flew up with a whoosh. From the coffin, a huge figure came flying out. His clothes were luxurious, except that over time they had become worn out and tattered. The clothing fluttered in the wind, covering the entire sky!

Although this figure emerged from the coffin, his size was bigger than the coffin several times over. Under his robes, the copper coffin was only a thousandth of his size!

His overflowing arrogance charged into the sky as overlapping celestial palaces appeared behind him, looking incomparably terrifying.

This was the corpse of a Celestial Venerable. It was in the Celestial Venerable Ridge, stealing its earth qi and yin aura for 40,000 years, and it had long been transformed into a corpse demon.

His eyes were like bright moons, appearing tranquil but distant. His gaze was extremely cold, freezing the vapor in the air to create a scene of drifting snow.

For a moment, Qin Mu saw everything falling into a state of atrophy. The trees withered, and the Surging River froze. The wave of decay was quickly spreading.

\”Qin Ye, we meet again!\”

That Celestial Venerable corpse gave a loud roar as terrifying consciousness engulfed his surroundings. \”Back in the day, during the Founding Emperor Era, you tried to enter the Celestial Venerable Ridge multiple times, trying to seek out my treasure. There were a few occasions where you almost died at my hands. And now, you appear again!\”

Founding Emperor pulled out his sword.

Qin Mu saw the Carefree Sword transforming into a moving sword light that covered the sky, forming 34 overlapping heavens.

\”It's been a long time.\”

Founding Emperor Qin Ye returned the Carefree Sword into the sheath with a faint clinking sound. This middle-aged man then continued to walk forward with his arms crossed, hugging his chest as though he was feeling a little cold.

Above his head, that Celestial Venerable corpse slowly split open, cut into countless pieces. That giant corpse body then crumbled, falling from the sky.

In the distance, the gushing Surging River suddenly stopped, and so did that flying stone coffin.

Qin Ye revealed a puzzled expression as he looked at the faraway stone coffin. He shook his head and said, \”Celestial Venerable Mu bragged about how well his Eternal Peace was developed. In that case, why does this Primordial Realm have so many monsters and demons?\”

He couldn't help but shake his head again.

The stone coffin abruptly fell, stabbing into the ground with a thud. Countless tentacle-looking roots emerged from the ground, quickly coiling around the stone coffin before retracting back into the earth.

Qin Ye removed the sword by his waist. He stabbed it, together with the sheath, half a foot into the ground.

Violent tremors came from beneath the earth as rows of ravines with abrupt cliff walls appeared, created by the sword qi that penetrated deep into the earth.

On the broken cliff walls were gigantic thick roots with divine blood flowing out of the cracks on their surfaces. Streams of blood formed a river in the valley, creating a frightening scene.

\”That was a quick escape.\”

The middle-aged man knitted his brows tightly as he hugged his arms, flying towards the east. The Carefree Sword flew up and landed by his waist.

In the distance, on the Surging River, Qin Mu shut the vertical eye at the heart of his brows. Suddenly, the waters of the Surging River filled the air as countless roots burst out of the water, entangling the Heavenly Dragon Treasure Carriage, entrapping it. Fresh blood was still flowing out of these roots, turning the water red!

Mother Earth's voice came from below the water. She was incensed. \”Celestial Venerable Mu!\”

Qin Mu quickly stood up on the treasure carriage and shouted, \”This isn't my doing!\”

\”Bullsh*t!\”

Mother Earth's voice was full of rage. She shouted, \”Not your doing? Do you think you're deceiving a three-year-old kid? I can overlook the fact that you asked me to help you handle the Grand Emperor, but you actually planned to ambush me here with Qin Ye! He's your ancestor, and the two of you have ganged up to attack me! Today, I will kill you!\”

Qin Mu hurriedly said, \”This really isn't my doing. If I knew Celestial Venerable Qin was here, I absolutely wouldn't have asked you for help. The heavens can be my witness! You know that I'm an honest man and that I wouldn't deceive anyone! If not for the fact that I had no other options, I wouldn't have asked you for help.\”

Mother Earth gave a snort. Although she would very much like to get rid of this kid, she still needed him to help her reconstruct her soul. However, she was very unhappy that she had suffered a loss just now.

Qin Mu laughed as he said, \”Mother Earth, I asked you to help me handle the Grand Emperor. However, you didn't do so. Instead, you're now piling your anger on me. What logic is that? Before you leave, I have something that I need you to do.\”

He reached in and grabbed Yun Chuxiu from the treasure carriage, shouting as he held her high up in the air, \”Mother Earth, do you recognize her?\”

\”Jue Wuchen!\”

The river waves crashed and tumbled as a big flower rose from the water, towering over the treasure carriage. The flower slowly opened up, revealing an eye in the center. It rolled around and focused its sight on Yun Chuxiu, laughing coldly as it said, \”Celestial Empress, we haven't met for a long time!\”

Yun Chuxiu's face was pale. She pedaled her legs but was unable to break free from Qin Mu's grip. She turned and stared furiously at him before turning back with a sweet smile. \”Mother Earth, I feel very sorry about you having fallen to such a state. Thirty thousand years ago, you dominated the Primordial Realm and could take the celestial heavens head-on by yourself. Now, you're just like a miserable stray dog, and even Celestial Venerable Qin could beat you easily.\”

Qin Mu laughed as he said, \”Mother Earth is indeed knowledgeable. However, you have guessed incorrectly. Jue Wuchen isn't Celestial Empress, she's Mistress Yuanmu.\”

The river water trembled. Clearly, Mother Earth was shocked to hear this.

All along, she thought that Jue Wuchen was Celestial Empress. She didn't expect her to be Mistress Yuanmu.

\”You didn't take care of the Grand Emperor. In that case, why don't you help me take care of her?\”

Qin Mu smiled as he said, \”The Grand Emperor was very powerful, but this Jue Wuchen is only a small Divine Bridge Realm divine arts practitioner. It should be quite easy to handle her, yes?\”

A root flew over and grabbed Yun Chuxiu as Mother Earth's laughter traveled from the center of the flower. \”I'm more than happy to take care of Yuanmu. Our old grudges…\”

That big flower slowly sank into the Surging River as Mother Earth's laughter came from beneath the water. \”…it's time to settle them!\”

Yun Chuxiu struggled non-stop as she was dragged into the Surging River. She shouted angrily, \”Qin Mu, I won't let you off!\”

Qin Mu heaved a sigh of relief as he thought to himself, 'Finally, I have sent this troublemaker off. Now that she's not around, I can help Celestial Venerable Yun gather his soul…'
