As night fell, Mu Linfeng planned to continue practicing the Ancient God Scripture in his mind. Unexpectedly, an accident occurred.

A few unexpected guests suddenly appeared in the small courtyard, sneakily standing outside Mu Lingfeng's room.

"Remember, don't kill him. You only need to break his four limbs and cripple his Dantian. Just let him stay in bed for a few months and don't delay Young Master's plans!" A low and deep voice sounded as a few people quietly walked towards Mu Lingfeng's room.

"Squeak!"

A voice so soft that it could be ignored could be heard, Mu Lingfeng's door was opened and a few people slipped in, sneaking into Mu Lingfeng's room.

"Who is courting death!" Mu Lingfeng shouted loudly and stood up from the bed, staring at the direction of the sound.

Mu Lingfeng suddenly lit a stone lamp in the room, and saw a few people dressed in night attire standing quietly in the middle of the thatched cottage, holding sharp blades in their hands as they stared at him with murderous intent.

"I didn't think that I would be discovered by a mouse. If that's the case … I shouldn't have been able to kill you, but for the sake of the lives of us brothers, I have no choice but to let you die!"

The leader of the black-clothed men rushed towards Mu Lingfeng as soon as he finished speaking. The blade in his hand flashed with a dazzling light as he released his elemental energy and cut some of the weeds in the thatched cottage, aiming at Mu Lingfeng's forehead.

The rest of the people didn't have the slightest bit of carelessness as they circled around Mu Lingfeng. Similarly, they wielded blades and pierced towards Mu Lingfeng's surroundings separately.

"Good job! Ever since I started practicing this cultivation technique, I haven't had the chance to experiment it properly. Today, I'll test your sword skills on me!"

Mu Lingfeng's eyes turned cold as his entire body was enveloped by a terrifying aura. A blade that could not be considered a long sword nor a short dagger appeared out of nowhere in his hand. It was densely packed with various runes and the purple light was exceptionally dazzling in this hut.

Mu Lingfeng slowly lifted the black clothed man into the air. It seemed like there were thousands of weights and the speed was not fast, but the first black clothed man was instantly cut in half by the sword in Mu Lingfeng's hand. Fresh blood splattered all around, and the sword edge was still as bright as ever.

A hint of excitement appeared in Mu Lingfeng's eyes. He never thought that the Heavenly Sword formed from the Ancient Heavenly Classic would be so powerful. With a slight smile, he shouted angrily, "Next will be the few of you!"

The Heavenly Sword in his hand cut through space, passed through time, and suddenly appeared on the left side of a black-clothed man. The Heavenly Sword in his hands cut through space, passed through time, and suddenly appeared on the left side of a black-clothed man.

They wanted to leave and settle the score with the eldest young master of the Mu family. The black-clothed man, who wholeheartedly wanted to leave, broke through from all directions and destroyed the weak thatched cottage.

Just as Mu Lingfeng was about to give chase, he felt two powerful waves of elemental energy appearing within his body, and it was even stronger than the elemental energy that he currently had, constantly rampaging within his body. Mu Lingfeng knew what this was, so he did not dare delay any longer and directly sat down cross-legged, refining the elemental energy within his body.

"You're here, don't leave!" A calm voice sounded out from outside Mu Lingfeng's hut. The few black clothed people seemed to have been imprisoned as they maintained their posture of leaving. Their eyes were filled with despair as they were surrounded by a strong wave of elemental energy.

The refining process was extremely fast. Not long later, Mu Lingfeng rushed out and saw a white-robed young man lazily sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard.

As if he had thought of something, he pointed to a direction where there was nothing and asked, "You are their head?"

The young man nodded. With a slight movement of his palm, none of the men in black had the strength to resist. They turned into dust in an instant and disappeared into the air.

"That's right, I am their leader. I can also be considered their team leader to protect you. However, I also have another identity, and that is the Void Sword Sect's inner disciple, Ji Shengan!"

When Mu Lingfeng had travelled to this place and merged with the remnant soul of his previous body, he had felt that there were many black-clothed people circling around his thatched cottage. He had thought of the reason but he never thought that these people would actually protect him.

It was only when he was told by Mu Chi to bring the bodyguards to the meeting hall that a man in black secretly told him that no matter what happened, he would be fine. Although he did not understand, he would only treat it as the hidden strength left behind by a lucky parent that he had no memory of ever being born.

But now, this young man actually had another identity, and that was the disciple of the Imperial Sword Sect that all the people in the Mu Family looked up to, and was even an inner disciple. Mu Lingfeng was a little shocked.

"You did not come to protect me this time. I believe that those people earlier could not defeat those people surrounding my thatched cottage. They should not need the help of an expert that has surpassed the Essence realm like you!" Mu Lingfeng had a puzzled expression.

Cultivators were divided into several levels. The basic five, Skin Refinement, Bone Forging, Marrow Washing, Tendon Changing, and finally Viscera Refinement. The next step was to truly enter the cultivation realm.

Primordial spirit, master, general, and so on.

These realms were only known to Mu Lingfeng after he obtained the Wordless Heavenly Stele. What else was left to him? His strength was too weak, and he did not make any introductions on the Wordless Heavenly Stele.

And this Ji Sheng, as an inner disciple of the Imperial Void Sword Sect, was able to reach the realms above the Primal level at such a young age. It was extremely terrifying, after all, according to his knowledge, there were no Primordial Spirit Realm experts in the entire Loyang City, otherwise, Loyang City would have already been unified.

"That's right, I'm not here to protect you. After all, you still can't offend experts at my level. I've come here to bring you to the Void Sword Sect. It was your birthday twenty days ago, and I didn't come until today! "

Ji Shengan sat on the stone bench and explained without moving.

Mu Lingfeng did not understand. Just as he was about to ask a question, he was interrupted by Ji Shengan.

"Don't ask me, I don't know anything. I just followed orders to bring you back to the Void Sword Sect because my strength is too weak for the entire Southern Domain. I don't even know about those things!" So, you don't need to ask me, someone will explain it to you when we arrive at the Void Sword Sect! "

At this moment, a girl walked out of the broken thatched cottage with sleepy eyes.

"Big brother, what's going on? Why is our thatched cottage gone?!"

She had already woken up when Mu Lingfeng was fighting with the black-clothed men, but she did not dare to disturb her brother. She could only hide in the shadows and wait, only daring to come out when she saw the black-clothed men running away.

Mu Lingfeng did not know how to explain and could only comfort her, "Nothing much, just go back to sleep. Brother was just sparring with you, so I accidentally smashed this cottage!"

Mu Yuyao acknowledged him with an 'oh'. Without another word, she turned around and left, leaving behind Mu Lingfeng and Ji Shengan.

Seeing Yao'er had already gone back, Mu Lingfeng said, "You saw it too, I still have a younger sister. I can't abandon her, moreover, I still have some grievances that I haven't avenged. I can't just leave like this, do you understand?"

Suddenly, Mu Lingfeng thought of something. It was when he had just left the dungeon, the words that the guard had told him that the Imperial Void Sword Sect was here to recruit disciples. Looking at Ji Shengan and Mu Lingfeng, he had a few thoughts in mind.
