A group of four people walked out of the bamboo forest in a majestic gait. They quickly looked around, and their eyes lit up. One of them could not help but let out a proclamation.

The lineup of people coming to the royal mausoleum has become better and better…

The three other people beside him were clearly veterans who had wandered around a lot in the game. They were very familiar with many of the people present. While looking around, they nodded.

Indeed, it’s different every day. When we first came here, there were only around a dozen faces, and only Iron Arm Divine Ape, Jade Finger Cups, and Flute in Cave were slightly stronger. Now? Sigh… we’re old.

While they walked, they entered the crowd and arrived at the edge of the entrance.



Tang Sect’s Sanshou King[1].


Beggar’s Sect Twelfth Butler.


Quite a number of people from the Famous People Rank are here.


There are also more and more players coming from the Phoenix and Dragon Rank. All of them are here for the masterpieces in the royal mausoleum. Looks like we’ll have to compete with each other today.


Compete?

A few people around them who heard their conversation chuckled with derision, but they did not say anything. Instead, they just held their weapons with cold expressions. They stood around arrogantly without regarding their competitors with any importance.
The situation right then was different. The people who constantly played in the royal mausoleum might not know the changes in the world around them. To obtain more masterpieces, a number of people had gathered a full set of first-echelon supreme grade masterpieces.
This sort of equipment would make it extremely easy for them to deal with the ninjas. They would have absolutely no problem in making a name for themselves in the royal mausoleum…
Just when the group took its position, the sound of something travelling very quickly came from the bamboo forest.
All the people in the area were Mystical Realm players, and they had their qi placed in their eyes and ears. They quickly reacted to the situation and looked over to the side warily.


A pretty purplish-red figure shot out from the bamboo forest at an astonishing speed. It was like an arrow shot from a bow above the crowd’s head.
‘Lie down!’
The figure seemed to be running away. Once the woman landed, she instantly shot into the part of the crowd with the most people and vanished from the players’ gazes.

Come out, wench!

A cold bark rose came from the bamboo forest, and before it faded away, the speaker arrived. A red figure flew down from the sky like an Immortal. The man stopped above the people in a bizarre manner and looked down to survey the area coldly with his long and narrow eyes. He gave an intangible amount of pressure to the people below him.

Cold Moon Palace, Lu Mingyue…

The players underneath were at first rather displeased with the person stopping above their heads, but when they saw the garish attire and the way the person stopped in the air, they sucked in cold breaths and let out faint cries of surprise.

Did you see a woman with a long, purple-red gown run here just now?

His qi circulated in his Dantian region, and a charming, feminine voice spread through the area. It reached everyone’s ears.
However, since most of the people knew that Lu Mingyue was a man, his charming, feminine voice only made them nauseous.


No one acknowledged the man with the large red robe and thick makeup in the air. After all, the people below him had various statuses and pride. Even if Lu Mingyue had great fame, they did not choose to expose the woman’s location. They ignored him while continuing to wait for the royal mausoleum to be activated.
Lu Mingyue also noticed that the situation was different than he expected, and that everyone’s aura was not weak!
Even though he was filled with anger, he did not dare to become a target of scorn.

Hmph, did you actually think that you can hide like this?

Lu Mingyue looked around the area from the sky. When no one answered him, he could not find a way to immediately locate the woman who had ambushed him in the dark.
He was so exasperated that he gnashed his teeth. A fierce glare shone in his eyes, but he could only use the most ancient method to search for her—by looking through the crowd column by column from the left to the right.
Drip.
Blood slowly dripped down a woman’s long, light yellow gown.
She seemed to have been injured pretty badly, and her face was pale because she had lost too much blood. She ate a medicinal pill and gritted her teeth to make sure that she showed no weakness. She did not even dare to raise her head.
Lu Mingyue was right above her.


There were quite a number of people around her who looked at her with compassion and pity. No matter for what reason she had offended Lu Mingyue, there was only one end for here, and since the distance between them was so small, it was only a matter of time before Lu Mingyue found her.
Right then, they could only choose not to interfere with the situation. If she could heal her wounds, she could leave as quickly as possible.
The injured woman noticed the kindness of the people around her, and she nodded secretly in gratitude toward them while taking medicinal pills in secret. She also looked around for the possibility to leave the place quickly.
However, the injured woman suddenly felt an indistinct gaze fixed on her from the crowd. While retaining her composure, she turned her body to the side, and she was instantly stunned.
Happy was also stunned and incredibly surprised.
From the moment the woman appeared, he had felt that she looked familiar, but that familiarity had faded away when she changed her clothes, and the vague feeling in his heart had become even more indistinct.
But the moment their gazes met, he recognized her immediately.
More than one month ago, Little North had been surrounded and attacked by the people from Five Venoms in an ancient tomb near Wuhu. At that time, she had saved Little North. Then, Little North constantly thought about her. If Happy was not mistaken, her name should be… Momo.
When their gazes met, Momo also recognized the man who loved wearing blue robes, and her eyes lit up.

Found you!



But before Momo could say anything, an astonishing mighty pressure descended from the sky. Lu Mingyue had appeared behind her at some unknown point in time, and his voice was cold and dark.
‘This is bad!’
Momo’s expression changed drastically, but it was too late for her to react to the situation.
The moment she moved, a gentle wind stirred by a palm strike struck her shoulder, and it was so cold that it chilled her bones.
Bang!
The pretty light yellow figure flew out of the crowd like a kite with its string snapped.
Wherever she went, the crowd would avoid her. They did not dare nor want to get involved in her mess. After all, they had come for the treasures in the royal mausoleum and not to get involved in a personal grudge between Lu Mingyue and the woman.
When Lu Mingyue found his enemy and the people around him avoided her, the hate in his heart found an outlet. The anger and displeasure that had accumulated in his chest disappeared with his palm strike as well.

Just try to run away again, wench.

Lu Mingyue’s personality had changed slightly after he became more skilled with Sunflower Manual and gained an even deeper understanding of it. He let out a cold and mean snort, and his body became lighter. He soared through the air while very close to the ground.
Thud!
He flicked his finger, and an embroidery needle shot into the woman’s calf when she fell to the ground and could not get up.
The other end of the sturdy thread was in Lu Mingyue’s hands, allowing him to control the needle. He let out a cold bark of laughter, and with a tug, Momo cried out in pain. She was dragged through the ground.
The cruel scene caused quite a number of people in the area to feel enraged!

Lu Mingyue, you’ve achieved your goal, don’t go overboard and torment her!


That’s right!


Just kill her. What’s the point of torturing someone?

The people in the area spoke up, but Lu Mingyue only snorted coldly.
Why should I listen to you when I want to do anything? If anyone is displeased, come out, and I’ll deal with you accordingly…

The voices in the area instantly vanished. The people were angry, but they did not dare to speak.
Just when Lu Mingyue was feeling smug and prepared to attack again to vent his anger, a clear voice rose from beside Momo and reached everyone’s ears.

Lu Mingyue, all this while, I thought you were someone with great character, but it looks like I made a poor judgment. You must have really castrated yourself. You aren’t like a man at all…

When the person finished speaking, the crowd burst into a commotion!
