The sun in the sky gradually set in the west. The blazing sunlight also gradually disappeared. The valley was completely silent. There was not even the sound of birds chirping. There was a faint indescribable suppression in this valley.
It was as if some wild beast was constantly attacking the net that trapped it. Once it rushed out, it would be a monstrous disaster!
Two hours passed. Mu Wu raised his head and looked at the sun that had turned slightly warmer. Qin Chuan was already a little hot at the end of May. However, he couldn't care less about this heat. Fortunately, the Art of Longevity was an all-purpose cheat. When he circulated it, it made his mind calm and could more or less reduce the heat.
Han Yue also gave off a cold aura, which made him feel much more comfortable.
He was hanging on the cliff wall on the left side of the exit of the passage. There was nothing blocking him. His left hand was firmly clinging to the cliff wall, while his right hand was holding onto the hilt of Han Yue's sword. He was waiting for the person inside the passage to come out and stab him!
It would be best if he could severely injure him with a full-powered attack. Even if he couldn't, he could still gain the upper hand!
The Moon Goddess in front of him was like a holy goddess statue, but it didn't match the steep cliffs around him.
After waiting for a long time, Mu Wu could not help but let his imagination run wild. The people in the tunnel clearly knew that they were prepared to make a move. Without understanding the situation, the other party was obviously unwilling to enter rashly.
"He's really difficult to deal with." Mu Wu muttered to himself. He felt that the Soul-refinement Realm expert in front of him was like heaven and earth compared to Yan Dan.
In the passage, two men hidden in the pitch-black environment began to discuss.
"Did something happen in the valley?" One of them had a hoarse voice, and it was a rough one. He was an elderly man. Moreover, this person's aura was also relatively weak. His martial arts were obviously not high.
As for the other person, his voice was very clear. His words were clear, and the intervals between his words were obvious. He was neither hurried nor slow. He should be a typical aristocrat.
"There's an expert inside, and the people who stay behind are no match for him.”
"Then what should we do?" The man with the deep voice asked.
For a time, the passage fell silent again.
"I don't know." After a long while, the clear voice finally spoke.
There was an even longer silence.
The two sides were in a stalemate, neither willing to take the lead.
"Let's leave." Finally, after the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, that clear voice spoke. As soon as he finished speaking, the man with the low voice raised his voice.
"Are we going to ignore Tianming?”
It seemed like she was dissatisfied with the handsome man.
The man said without any emotion,"I just happened to help you. It doesn't mean that I want to participate in your plan. Moreover, Ge Nia had gone to lure away the assassins from the net, and no one knew when he would return. "Even if we continue to be in a stalemate here, we won't be a match for the people inside.”
When Mu Wu heard the clear words of a man, he became a little excited. As long as this Soul Ascension cultivator left, the remaining one would not be a problem for him!
However, Mu Wu wasn't sure if the other party was telling the truth.
"Alright, you're right. There's really no need for you to get involved. I know what your goal is. However, did you think that in a tyrannical country like Great Qin, you could achieve those things?”
"That's impossible. Let me tell you, the first person Great Qin wants to eliminate is you! Because your power is not small!”The one with the deep voice seemed to be speaking in a hurry because of anger!
Mu Wu calmed down and continued to analyze the identity of the Soul Ascension realm expert from these words. It was obvious that the other party had some ideas. This was not surprising. The Hundred Schools of Philosophy all had their own ideas and hoped to govern the country according to their own ideas!
Obviously, this person was a member of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy.
There were a few schools of thought that were quite powerful, such as Confucianism, Mohism, Legalism, Yin-Yang, Agriculture, and Military. The only schools that were not adopted by the empire were Confucianism, Mohism, and Agriculture. The Mo Family had always been against the Empire, and Jing Ke was a member of the Mo Family.
It was obvious that the other party was not from the Mo Family. Otherwise, he would not have come in to save Jing Tianming. Of course, he couldn't rule out the possibility that the other party was trying to trick him. In that case, the other party could only be a scholar or a farmer.
However, farmers were a bunch of bumpkins. This wasn't a derogatory term. It just meant that the people from the farmers 'families weren't highly educated. In this case, the other party was very likely to be a Confucian!
This person was an expert, and if what he said just now was true, then it was obvious that he was not very willing to go against the empire. Moreover, he strongly wanted his ideas to be recognized by the empire.
The more Mu Wu thought about it, the more certain he was that this person was from the scholarly faction. He only needed to wait to verify if this person had really left, then he would be able to confirm whether his guess was correct or not.
"You'd better leave too. Otherwise, when I leave, they won't let you off. Farewell." In the tunnel, the handsome man did not seem to waver even a little from the warning of the man with the low voice. Instead, he released his aura, indicating that he had left.
