Exchange
Mu Yu invoked an eight trigrams formation at his feet, drawing each line using blood.
“You can’t do that, Mu Yu,” warned Xiaoshuai, identifying the formation to be Ultimate Concealment Bloody Guardian.
“I must save her,” disputed Mu Yu, carrying on.
“Ku Mu’s life flows in you. Are you going to revive him or Tian Ran?”
Mu Yu froze. “What should I do?”
“I can preserve her life,” Ju Mang stated.
“Help me!” Mu Yu pleaded.
“What are you going to do for me?”
“What do you want?”“Your body.”
Mu Yu said through his teeth, “I can’t give it to you yet.”
“Haha, I don’t need it yet, since you have a lot of things to do. Besides, I must admit I owe Ku Mu.”
“Before I revive my dad, I won’t give you possession of my body.
“For that reason, we need to conduct an exchange.”
“Don’t beat around the bush with me.”
“Don’t forget we’re inseparable. You are only alive thanks to me. In my weakened state, both of us will perish if we separate, which is why I need to find someone who can handle my energy before I leave your body.”
“Where do I find them?”
“You’ve met it before – Xuelian. Since Xuelian gained intelligence, it can withstand my energy. I’m afraid Third Heaven Palace now controls Xuelian, though, which is why I need you to capture it.”
“All right, I’ll capture Xuelian.”
“Think twice before you make promises. You will die if you do return Ku Mu’s life to him, meaning your body will also be useless to me. You, therefore, must capture Xuelian first, or I won’t let you use Life and Death in the Blink of an Eye again.”
“Done deal. Now save Tian Ran, you chatterbox!”
“I need to take over your body. Don’t resist or activate bloodlust energy.”
“Here.”
Ju Mang summoned a phantasmal shred of qi to his hand. “Luckily, she only just died, so her soul is still in her body. She mustn’t have been aware she suppressed your bloodlust energy with her life’s flames and helped you heal. Her vitality is still burning inside you.”
Souls were only visible to those who use special means, such as Ghost Gate’s method of refining souls.
“Your point being?”
“I can turn the flames back into vitality for her.” Ju Man turned the golden flame he drew to his hand and extinguished it, converting it back into green vitality.
“That’s not enough vitality.”
“I know. That’s why I need to nourish it.” Ju Mang sent the vitality back into Tian Ran’s body via her forehead.
“How?”
“Go find the linden tree. Tree Elder will teach you what to do.” Ju Mang returned the rights to Mu Yu’s body to the latter.
Mu Yu immediately rushed to Moyun Mountains once he regained control over his body.

Among the ten thousand or so survivors, one shouted, “What are you all waiting for? Let’s get the hell out of this city!”
A day after the catastrophe at Pure Peace City, the survivors sought refuge at Martial Hill City, a city not too far north of Pure Peace City and similar in size. It took less than moments for news of Pure Peace City’s demise to reach Martial Hill City, and the cultivators at an eatery by the name of Celestial Guests spread the news as fast as wildfire.
“Pure Peace City has been eradicated!” exclaimed Liu San, a man with a high-pitched voice and pouty lips.
The owner responded, “What? Where did you hear that from?”
“From the survivors, obviously. According to him, Mu Yu wiped out half of the population in one slash!”
“Him again?”
“Wait, wait, don’t jump to conclusions. He wasn’t the cause of the upheaval.”
“Who was it, then?” snapped a middle-aged Primordial Infant Realm cultivator.
Golden Core Realm cultivator Liu San recoiled and then clarified, “Third Heaven Palace and Secular World Sect. They killed dozens of thousands of people just to dispose of Mu Yu!”
“Get out of here with that bullcrap. You don’t want your tongue no more?” reproved the proprietor of the eatery.
“I’m not making it up. An hour ago, the surviving cultivators and residents came here to seek refuge. They told me about it.”
A man and the two year old boy sitting in the corner earnestly tuned in to what Liu San had to report.
