Truly, what a small world!
Mu Jinyu suddenly felt this sense of irony.
He looked at the group chasing the young man and understood that this fellow must have done sothing wrong or offended soone, which is why he wore a bamboo hat and cloak that could shield against the Divine Sense to seek refuge at the Heavenly Sword Faction. As a result, he ended up being stripped of his clothes by Mu Jinyu and unfortunately ran into his pursuers...
Eventually landing him in this dire state of fleeing for his life.
Mu Jinyu didn't quite feel heartache or guilt for the young man, after all, he was the one who first mocked him.
However, since the matter did have sothing to do with him, now that he encountered it, he wouldn't just ignore it.
And if this young man indeed committed an unforgivable mistake, once Mu Jinyu learned the truth, he would help him depart sooner.
But if it was just because he offended soone and was being pursued, he would help resolve their grievances.
"Scram!"
"Get lost, you damn dog!"
"..."
Mu Jinyu saw this group chasing the thinly clad young man. Before he could speak to intervene, the ferocious assassins behind him viciously insulted Mu Jinyu!
"Hm?!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Jinyu's swollen face beneath the bamboo hat darkened slightly.
Unexpectedly, the young man, upon seeing Mu Jinyu's attire, was filled with rage, clearly recognizing that Mu Jinyu was the one who ambushed him, knocked him out, and took his bamboo hat and cloak. But in the end, he chose not to kill Mu Jinyu in revenge while fleeing; instead, he paused and changed direction to escape another way!
Whether he knew he was no match for Mu Jinyu and didn't want to act out of revenge in order to completely destroy his chance of escape, or he didn't want to waste ti and lose the best chance to flee, or perhaps he was genuinely kind-hearted and didn't want to involve Mu Jinyu...
Mu Jinyu didn't think much about it and decided to save this guy's life!
"Stop right there, all of you!"
Mu Jinyu shouted coldly.
"Get lost!"
"Go to hell, you useless thing, still daring to shout?"
This group of assassins, upon hearing Mu Jinyu's shout, not only didn't stop but directly attacked, swords and knives slashing towards Mu Jinyu instantly.
Seeing this, Mu Jinyu's eyes turned cold, and he raised his hand to counter.
"Clang clang clang!!"
Even without True Yuan and unable to release any Divine Sense, solely relying on Physical Strength, it was easy for him to handle these assassins whose levels were only in the Late Divine Transformation Realm Stage.
Amidst the clatter of breaking sounds.
Their weapons were all broken barehanded by Mu Jinyu!
"What the hell!"
"What's going on?"
"Isn't this guy supposed to be without Cultivation? Why is he so strong?"
"Could his cultivation be so high that we can't perceive it?"
"What are you blabbering about? Run now!"
"..."
The vicious assassins, seeing Mu Jinyu's formidable strength, wisely decided to abandon their pursuit and quickly retreated!
"Hmph!"
Mu Jinyu snorted coldly. Want to escape? Now, this matter is out of your hands!
"Bang!!"
Mu Jinyu stepped forward like a fierce tiger descending the mountain, or a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, instantly reaching the escape path of one of them, kicking him back to the starting point, knocking him unconscious.
One after another, all the dozens of assassins were kicked back by Mu Jinyu, not a single one escaped!
For the last ti, Mu Jinyu moved to the front of the thin young man, lifted his foot, and lightly kicked the air a few tis, saying, "Want to help you back?"
The thin young man was both incredulous and sowhat desperate, not expecting Mu Jinyu to be so powerful.
Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, the young man's face showed despair and he turned back, obediently walking to the side of the unconscious assassins.
Mu Jinyu slowly walked beside the young man, looked down at him, and asked: "Why did you provoke them? What made them chase you? If you did nothing wrong, I'll let you avenge yourself today."
Though he didn't finish his sentence, the young man knew the implication.
Which was that if he had indeed wronged those people, Mu Jinyu might just deal with both parties at once.
"Gulp..."
The thin young man swallowed hard, hesitated, with a look of struggle, then finally spoke: "I didn't do anything wrong. They wanted to kill and rob , that's why they pursued ; it's not because I offended them..."
"Is that so?" Listening to his words, Mu Jinyu felt he wasn't lying based on his expression.
However, because Mu Jinyu couldn't use Divine Sense, he couldn't delve into the Sea of Consciousness for a Soul Search to confirm the truth.
Thinking this way, Mu Jinyu then kicked one assassin awake and coldly asked, "Why are you pursuing him?"
The man awakened by Mu Jinyu's kick was a burly man with a brutish face full of fatigue. He broke out in a cold sweat, feeling the murderous aura, and thought Mu Jinyu was siding with the young man, hesitatingly said: "Because he...he stole the treasure we found, and we pursued him to retrieve it..."
"You're talking nonsense!"
The thin young man imdiately rebutted angrily.
Mu Jinyu raised his hand, motioning for him to stop speaking.
The thin young man didn't dare speak further, begrudgingly sitting down.
Mu Jinyu stared directly at the brutish man, saying calmly: "Are you sure that's the reason? I'll wake up the others, and if your answers differ, you all will die!"
The tone was calm, yet the murderous aura was dense!
The brutish man, hearing this, turned pale.
He knew Mu Jinyu wasn't joking.
"This..."
Cold sweat ford on his forehead, torn between speaking the truth, which seed just as deadly as lying.
Mu Jinyu said: "If you tell the truth, I might consider sparing your life, giving you another chance! I'll count to three, three..."
Hearing this and realizing the countdown, the brutish man was terrified and hastily admitted: "It's...it's because we coveted his treasure when we saw him alone with so Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures; that's why we tried to rob him. It's our greed, please spare ..."
"Oh."
Mu Jinyu responded, showing no reaction, and kicked him unconscious again, proceeding to awaken the others and continue the questioning.
The thin young man felt anxious, uncertain of what Mu Jinyu would ultimately do.
Would he really set them free...
After several rounds of questioning and intimidation, getting consistent accounts, Mu Jinyu, unwilling to waste more ti, kicked the last woken person unconscious again, then turned to the young man and said calmly: "Alright, considering I took your clothes, causing you to be discovered, I leave them to you to handle, whether to release them or kill them for revenge, it's up to you!"
"Ah?!"
The young man was stunned, not expecting Mu Jinyu to go back on his word.
Mu Jinyu calmly said: "What I promised them was that if they answered honestly, I might spare them; I've already done so. Now, it's your turn, based on your choice..."
