Upon hearing this voice drifting around, Chu Mu’s heart sank as well.

Chu Mu had never heard this voice before, but without thinking, he knew it belonged to Duan Xinhe, the wicked man who raised a large number of frightful Gluttonous Insect monsters!

Chu Mu’s heart dropped as he hadn’t expected Duan Xinhe to appear here.

“Don’t bother guessing. That guy burned to ashes belonged to my group. Initially, he wanted me to take care of you guys, but he mistakenly thought I’d foolishly help him eliminate all his competitors…” Duan Xinhe slowly emerged from the shadows where the firelight could not reach, and his pointed face gradually appeared under the glow of the fire.

Duan Xinhe’s appearance was not entirely of the cunning type, but his beast-like yellow eyes made everyone feel uncomfortable. If you looked closely, you would find that this guy’s eyes were precisely those of Gluttonous Insect monsters!

Seeing this powerful Soul Pet Master appear before him, Chu Mu could already feel the approaching Death God. He knew he stood no chance against someone like Duan Xinhe. Even his invisible Soul Pet, if it unleashed its full power, would be enough to instantly kill his own Soul Pet.

Now, Chu Mu’s heart was pounding. The more dangerous the situation, the more he needed to stay calm.

Muttering under his breath, Chu Mu cast a spell to silently put away his Ice-Feathered Spirit and Demon Tree Warrior, which were likely to be killed instantly.

Duan Xinhe didn’t care whether Chu Mu summoned or returned a Soul Pet, he just walked slowly around Chu Mu, stepping on the flames with interest, his hands behind his back.

“Tell me, what is your identity? Not just anyone can have something like the Nine-tailed Flame Fox. If it’s not because of great luck, then it must have been given to you by someone very important.” Duan Xinhe was not in a hurry to kill Chu Mu.

“Do you want the Zhe Dragon egg?” Chu Mu said with a calm tone as much as possible.

Chu Mu knew that if he didn’t reveal his young master status, Duan Xinhe would definitely kill him without hesitation. Even if he revealed his identity as the Soul Hall Young Master, he wouldn’t let Chu Mu off the hook to eliminate witnesses. Revealing any identity would result in death, so it was pointless for Chu Mu to talk to him about his identity, which would only guarantee death.

“Oh? You sure you’re not just trying to bring up this topic on purpose to save your life?” Duan Xinhe looked at Chu Mu unhurriedly, occasionally licking his fingers, which still had the scent of Fang Tong on them…

Chu Mu’s heart was already pounding fiercely. Duan Xinhe was an absolutely ruthless man. Having someone like him standing before Chu Mu was no different than the powerful Blue Sky Demon Spirit Emperor appearing in front of him, giving him immense pressure.

Yet, no matter how powerful the opponent, Chu Mu had to stay calm and find a reason for this strong man not to kill him. Only then would he have a chance to become someone who could rival such a formidable opponent in the future!

“Let me show you something. If you know what’s what, you won’t think I’m lying.” Chu Mu said.

As he spoke, Chu Mu secretly opened his Space Ring and found the Qingzhe Dragon egg that had been silently stored among the neatly arranged Soul Cores.

Of course, Chu Mu wouldn’t just hand over the Zhe Dragon egg directly as it would mean seeking his death.

Chu Mu purposely removed the outer eggshell layer, which shed every month, and handed it over to Duan Xinhe.

Duan Xinhe didn’t seem very interested, as if he thought Chu Mu was just buying time, but he didn’t mind the extra time.

He took the thin Zhe Dragon egg membrane and examined it closely. He didn’t seem to see anything unusual about it, so he put it aside.

Chu Mu lowered his head and quickly noticed a long nose extending from the air inexplicably and sniffing at the external Zhe Dragon egg membrane.

“Tell me first what this thing is useful for…” Duan Xinhe asked.

“Isn’t this what you’ve been looking for every day?” Chu Mu said calmly.

“Heh, looking for a broken cocoon membrane every day? I’m more interested in breaking into a woman’s body. Speaking of which, I almost forgot, you seem to have an attractive woman next to you. How come she’s not with you?” Duan Xinhe’s eyes flashed with a touch of lewdness.

Chu Mu knew Duan Xinhe was referring to Ye Qingzi. The water attack strategy was Ye Qingzi’s idea, so it must be Duan Xinhe who now loathes her.

From Duan Xinhe’s gaze, Chu Mu could understand what this guy had in mind for Ye Qingzi, and it stirred up a strong wave of anger in his heart.

“How, [nc]getting agitated? Hahaha, I thought you were an emotionless person, even able to face a villain like me with such composure. So it turns out that you have emotions after all,” Duan Xinhe said.

“Your interest in women is nothing more than carnal desire. I admit I’m worried about that woman. If you hurt her, including me, we’ll all be doomed within a year.” Chu Mu calmed the anger in his heart and said.

“Does this kind of threat mean anything to me? Many people have said this to me, and yet I’m still alive and well,” said Duan Xinhe.

“I’m not telling you this to scare you, but to let you know that killing me is not in your best interest. Two reasons: first, the powerful force behind me can easily crush you, and you won’t be able to live a carefree life in the future. Second, I can provide you with the very thing you’ve been scheming for right now, as a bargaining chip…”

“So you won’t hurt yourself and that little girl?” Duan Xinhe interrupted.

Chu Mu nodded.

“When you said you can provide me with what I’ve been scheming for, are you referring to the Qingzhe Dragon egg?” Duan Xinhe, who was not dull, quickly guessed what Chu Mu was talking about.

Chu Mu still nodded and said, “What you have in your hand is the protective eggshell of the outermost layer of the Qingzhe Dragon egg.”

Duan Xinhe picked up the now somewhat dried outer membrane of the Qingzhe Dragon egg again, looked at it closely, and deliberately sniffed it. It seemed like he was having some kind of communication with his soul pet.

When the Qingzhe Dragon had appeared in Li City, Duan Xinhe’s Mother of a Hundred had dealt with it, so the Mother of a Hundred could smell the scent of the Qingzhe Dragon.

Chu Mu took out the genuine outer membrane of the Qingzhe Dragon’s split insect egg, and naturally, Duan Xinhe could identify it. He then looked at Chu Mu with a special gaze, not understanding how he could have such a thing.

“How did you get it?” Duan Xinhe asked.

“I found it before. Only I know how to enter the God’s Innards and how not to disturb the Qingzhe Dragon. I secretly took the Zhe Dragon egg from it. The benefit that I can give to you is helping you get the Qingzhe Dragon egg,” Chu Mu said.

Duan Xinhe laughed, giving people a chilling feeling. Chu Mu could even hear his gluttonous insect monster let out a strange laugh, oddly matching its master.

Chu Mu’s gaze was fixed on Duan Xinhe. At this moment, he was observing Duan Xinhe’s eyes, and if Duan Xinhe revealed even a hint of murderous intent, Chu Mu would not hesitate to release the white charm demon flame from his body, transforming directly into a half-demon. Otherwise, in this state, both he and his soul pets would be easily killed by Duan Xinhe.

“Why should I believe what you say? Now, only I know where that Qingzhe Dragon is. As long as I wait patiently, everything will eventually be mine,” said Duan Xinhe, who was clearly wavering.

In fact, Duan Xinhe really wanted to get the Qingzhe Dragon’s insect eggs, but it was not easy to enter the God’s Innards where the Qingzhe Dragon was located. It would be difficult for Duan Xinhe to obtain them.

“Let him live for a while. It’s not a big deal. Maybe this kid really does have a way,” Duan Xinhe thought to himself.

“If you think you’re safe now, that’s really naive. Don’t you know that your life has become the prerequisite for obtaining the Qingzhe Dragon egg? Since you and Yu He are on the same side, he must have told you already,” Chu Mu said.

Duan Xinhe showed some doubt, then sneered, “Do you think I’ll believe your nonsense?”

Seeing that Duan Xinhe didn’t seem to know he had become the target of every powerful force, Chu Mu suddenly laughed.

“What’s so funny?” Duan Xinhe snarled.

“It seems that both of us have been played by that kid, Yu He. The Li City Lord has divided this event into three parts: the young generation, the middle-aged generation, and the elderly generation. The young generation is responsible for finding the Qingzhe Dragon’s location, and whoever finds it will be rewarded with 50 million gold coins. The middle-aged group is responsible for killing you, and those who take your head will possess the insect egg. The elderly group is responsible for subduing the Qingzhe Dragon.”

“How absurd!” Duan Xinhe sneered.

“Don’t believe me? I can assure you that the middle-aged strong ones from the Elemental Gate are already on their way here. You can randomly send out one of your gluttonous insect monsters to check outside,” Chu Mu said.

Duan Xinhe didn’t completely disbelieve Chu Mu’s words, so he indeed let a gluttonous insect monster scouting from the underground tunnel go outside to look for anything…

Not long after, the information quickly entered Duan Xinhe’s ears through the special sonic communication between the gluttonous insect monsters. Duan Xinhe’s face darkened somewhat.

“This Yu He… is really not a good thing!” Duan Xinhe gritted his teeth.

Yu He was indeed a terrifying schemer. He not only wanted to use Duan Xinhe to eliminate Chu Mu but also calculated the time to inform the Elemental Gate. He intended to let the Elemental Gate kill Duan Xinhe after Chu Mu was killed, and then the Zhe Dragon egg would fall into the hands of their Elemental Gate!
