Chapter 30

Yuzhi Peak?

Hu Donghan and Hu Meier both frowned.

Within the Yin Soul Sect, the number of peaks established by the ancestors was not small. Yuzhi Peak was considered one of the more powerful branches.

The ancestor in charge of Yuzhi Peak was named Lin Ru, a rare female ancestor with a mid-stage Core Formation cultivation. In her youth, she had a dao companion who was once an elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, enjoying great prestige. Lin Ru and that person had a son, but after her dao companion was killed, she remained alone, with a peculiar and reclusive personality, making her one of the more notorious figures in the Yin Soul Sect. Because her dao companion was once an elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall still gave Lin Ru some respect. For minor matters, they would not enforce the law on Yuzhi Peak.

As for the Wu Shixiong mentioned by Mu Zhengfeng, since he could be called "shixiong" by Mu Zhengfeng, he was clearly a Qi Condensation stage disciple. If he were from another peak, the Law Enforcement Hall could investigate him at will. However, if it were Yuzhi Peak, sending a large number of Law Enforcement Hall disciples to investigate would be somewhat inappropriate.

"Who exactly is this Wu Shixiong? Do you have any other impressions of him?" Hu Donghan narrowed his eyes and asked coldly, "As long as you tell me, I'll give you a quick death. Otherwise... I'm quite free, so I'll just play with one of your bones every day."

Mu Zhengfeng shook his head in terror, "I don't know! I really don't know! I met Wu Shixiong at the Little Ghost Grave. At that time, he claimed to be a disciple of Yuzhi Peak and said he knew you, so I asked him about you. Later, he invited me out and promised that if I killed you, I would get ten thousand spirit stones and be introduced to Senior Lin. That's why I..."

He met him in the wild?

In that case, it was very likely that even the peak and surname were fake.

"Who is this Senior Lin? What kind of person is he?" Hu Donghan suddenly thought of a key figure and asked coldly.

Mu Zhengfeng replied, "Senior Lin is named Lin Pusong. He is... a direct descendant of Ancestor Lin Ru. I heard he is very favored by Ancestor Lin Ru and might become the next peak master of Yuzhi Peak." The main reason Mu Zhengfeng agreed to kill Hu Donghan was because of this vague promise. He thought that if he could gain the favor of such a person, his future in the sect would be much better. However, he didn't expect that Hu Donghan would be even more terrifying than Lin Pusong. If he could die peacefully this time, he would consider himself lucky.

"Lin Pusong?" Hu Meier frowned slightly.

"What? Do you know this Lin Pusong?" Hu Donghan asked curiously.

Hu Meier nodded, "Yes. When my master took me as a disciple, all the Core Formation stage ancestors came to pay their respects. Ancestor Lin Ru of Yuzhi Peak brought someone with her, who seemed to be named Lin Pusong. This guy later visited me at Xuegu Peak several times, but I never paid him any attention..."

"Hmm." Hu Donghan understood, having a clearer idea of where the problem originated.

Hu Meier, being a smart person, said coldly, "Since Lin Pusong is involved, this Wu Shixiong is likely a disciple of Yuzhi Peak. Moreover, this Wu must know us and our relationship. I'll handle the matter from here on! I'll bring you this Wu's head by the day after tomorrow at the latest."

Hu Donghan frowned, "Alright, you handle it—girl, remember, you don't always have to do the killing yourself. Sometimes, letting others do it for you is safer."

"These things, you don't need to teach me! I'm not a little kid anymore, being bossed around by you all the time." Hu Meier said, and the door was knocked on again.

Hu Meier's eyebrows furrowed, "Alright, little brother, I have to go." After a pause, Hu Meier took out a set of blue clothes, a long whip, and an iron badge from her storage ring, "This set of Law Enforcement Hall disciple's attire, I'll leave it with you. Being alone in the outer sect, there will always be some troublemakers who will cause you trouble. Wearing this outfit will save you a lot of trouble, and you won't have to worry about being disturbed during your cultivation. My master has also agreed to give this to you, so you must accept it. Otherwise, if something like today happens again, I'll have to come to you every few days, which isn't a good situation. Little brother, can I ask you for this favor?"

Hu Meier was afraid that Hu Donghan would refuse even this, so she added a pleading tone at the end. From childhood, Hu Meier rarely spoke to Hu Donghan in such a tone.

Hu Donghan was moved and accepted the set of Law Enforcement Hall disciple's attire. Indeed, Hu Meier's words made sense. Wearing this outfit would indeed save him a lot of trouble. At least, someone like Mu Zhengfeng wouldn't dare to come looking for trouble.

Seeing Hu Donghan accept the clothes, Hu Meier immediately smiled, "Little brother, it's good that you accepted it, and I can rest easy! In the future, if someone causes you trouble while wearing this outfit, give them a good lesson! If anyone doesn't comply, just cite the sect's laws! Don't worry, be bold, and if you cause any trouble, I'll take care of it! My master has agreed to this, you know!"

Hu Meier's words were somewhat exaggerated.

When she left this time, Ancestor Shihun indeed asked her to bring a set of Law Enforcement Hall clothes to Hu Donghan. However, Ancestor Shihun's original words were that this kid should wear the Law Enforcement Hall clothes to stay out of trouble and not cause any more issues. If he caused trouble, he should deal with it himself and not keep bothering Hu Meier—Ancestor Shihun agreed to give Hu Donghan a set of Law Enforcement Hall clothes mainly because he didn't want Hu Meier to be too preoccupied with Hu Donghan's affairs, which would affect her cultivation.

Of course, this way, Hu Donghan indeed became one of the few people in the history of the Yin Soul Sect to become a Law Enforcement Hall disciple at the Qi Condensation stage. And he was the only one to become a Law Enforcement Hall disciple at the first level of Qi Condensation. The reason he could get all this was still because of Hu Meier's influence...

Hu Meier then spoke to Hu Donghan with some casual words, and when the knocking on the door sounded again, she bid farewell to Hu Donghan.

Then, Hu Meier looked at Mu Zhengfeng with a cold smile, dragging him along, "Little brother, I'll take this guy back to play with him a bit more!"

Hu Donghan nodded, not saying much. As for Mu Zhengfeng, his face changed completely, and he cried out, "Hu Donghan, what do you mean? Didn't you say that if I told you everything, you would give me a quick death?! Hu Donghan, you lied to me! May you die a thousand deaths!"

Hu Donghan snorted, "I did say I would give you a quick death. But whether she will give you a quick death is not my concern!"

Hu Donghan never held back when dealing with enemies. Mu Zhengfeng's actions were unforgivable in his eyes! Not killing him himself and leaving it to Hu Meier to handle was the same.

Hu Meier then laughed seductively, "Poor little guy, remember in your next life, never easily believe what a little kid says! I remember every word you said in front of the outer hall! There are many toys in the Law Enforcement Hall, and I will play with them all..."
