Chapter 25: Flame City
A month later.
In the room, Mu Zi sat cross-legged, and the three Yang Yuan stones turned into pure energy and were refined by her.
Exhaling lightly, feeling the progress of his own cultivation, Mu Zi nodded.
"In a few days, I will be able to break through the Earth Realm."
After returning to Mujiazhuang last time, she concentrated on improving her cultivation. Now she can feel the bottleneck of the Earthly Realm, and she only needs an opportunity to break through.
Although the experience a month ago was thrilling, she gained a lot from it.
Including the Yang Yuan Stones obtained from the trade, Mu Zi obtained a total of 200 Yang Yuan Stones and more than a dozen Yang Yuan Pills.
This is equivalent to the Yang Yuan Stone mine mined by the Lin family for a month. Those two Di Yuan realm masters really gave her a big gift.
Suddenly, someone knocked on Mu Zi's gate.
He walked over and opened the door, and Mu Lingsha poked her head in.
Seeing her cheerful appearance, Mu Zi asked curiously, "What are you so happy about?"
Mu Lingsha put her hands on her hips: "Haha! I broke through to the Earthly Realm!"
"Wow? That's awesome!" Mu Zi gave a thumbs up when he heard that.
Mu Lingsha's face suddenly fell: "Little sister, what's the tone of your voice? So perfunctory."
Looking at her elder sister's resentful expression, Mu Zi smiled secretly. In fact, Mu Lingsha's breakthrough was within her expectations.
During the family assessment, she had already broken through to the ninth level of body tempering.
After all, Mu Lingsha had already broken through the eighth level for a year, and she received a medium-excellent evaluation in the assessment last year, so Zhuangzi rewarded her with a third-grade spiritual medicine. So even though Mu Lingsha gave the reward of winning the Fire Python Tiger to herself, she also successfully reached the ninth level of body tempering.
However, he was able to break through the Earthly Realm in the next three months because of Mu Zi's help.
During the last trip to Qingyang Town, Mu Zi obtained sufficient resources for cultivation, so she naturally would not forget her sister.
After all, Mu Lingsha's timely help touched Mu Zi deeply.
If you want wealth and honor, don’t forget each other!
Now that she is wealthy, she naturally wants to help her. Mu Zi knows how much her elder sister wants to break through to the Earthly Realm.
Mu Lingsha looked at Mu Zi with a complicated expression. She had never dared to imagine such a luxurious behavior as using Yang Yuan Stone to practice in the Body Tempering Realm before.
After all, she had been used to a hard life, so Mu Lingsha was a little uncomfortable with the sudden wealth.
"Is the third-grade martial arts so valuable?" Mu Lingsha asked curiously.
Mu Zi would take out cultivation resources from time to time, so naturally she couldn't completely hide it from her relatives, so Mu Lingsha also knew about her selling martial arts.
"Uh, it's okay." Mu Zi laughed.
She felt a little guilty and didn't want her elder sister to know about her murder and robbery.
After taking a deep look at Mu Zi, Mu Lingsha changed the subject: "I want to participate in the escort mission tomorrow."
"Escort?"
"Yes." Mu Lingsha explained: "The main source of income for our Mu Family Manor is escort. Because we completed the mission well in the past, we have gained some reputation within a hundred miles."
"Recently, a caravan was going to Yancheng for business, so they hired us to escort them."
Mu Lingsha smiled and said, "Now that I have broken through to the Earthly Realm, I am considered the backbone of the family. It is time for me to contribute to Zhuangzi."
Hearing this, Mu Zi frowned slightly: "But it's not my sister's turn to lead the team, right?"
It's not like she didn't know everything. A caravan like this going to Yancheng would require a lot of protection. With Mu Lingsha's strength having just broken through to the Earthly Realm, it would probably be difficult for her to do the job.
Mu Lingsha explained: "Don't worry, this caravan is a little special."
"They acted in two teams, one big and one small."
"The large group is protected by my father and the owner of the manor. I only need to protect the small group."
Mu Zi then nodded, indicating that she accepted it.
Looking at Mu Lingsha who was eager to try, her thoughts drifted away.
This trip to Yancheng might be a good opportunity. Mu Zi had been eyeing the Qiankun bag for a long time. Moreover, Yancheng was far more prosperous than Qingyang Town. Maybe this time, she could find a fourth-grade martial art.
If he could see the fourth-grade martial arts, Mu Zi's martial arts skills would be able to improve further, and then he might have the opportunity to create a real fourth-grade martial arts. The next day, the Mu Family Village escort team.
"Why are you following me?"
Looking at the girl who had already packed her bags, Mu Lingsha said in surprise.
"I haven't been to Yancheng yet, and I want to see it for myself." Mu Zi replied.
"No, your skills are not good enough. It's too dangerous!" Mu Lingsha shook her head and disagreed with Mu Zi joining the team.
Although my little sister is a monster, she has not reached the Earthly Realm after all, so she is still not safe.
Mu Zi pointed at the guards in the team and said, "Isn't there someone who has reached the seventh level of Body Tempering?"
Hearing her doubts, Mu Lingsha was speechless.
In fact, Mu Zi's cultivation should be sufficient, but she is too young. When the manor set the selection criteria, it did not expect that someone could reach the ninth level of body tempering at the age of fourteen.
Seeing the hesitation in Mu Lingsha's eyes, Mu Zi struck while the iron was hot and patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I'm not a child anymore!"
Looking at the shaking in front of her, Mu Lingsha raised her eyebrows. Why did it feel bigger than last time?
Reaching out and flicking the girl's smooth forehead, Mu Lingsha said sourly: "Little sister, your wings are really hard!"
However, under Mu Zi's expectant eyes, she finally gave in.
"Get on your horse!"
Mu Zi showed a triumphant smile on his face and set off with the escort team.
After meeting with the caravan, an old man walked up to Mu Lingsha.
"I am the leader of this caravan. I have heard of the great name of Mujiazhuang for a long time, and I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation this time."
This old man was also in the Earthly Realm, and even reached the middle stage of cultivation. It seemed that the caravan did not fully trust Mu Family Manor.
Mu Lingsha said solemnly: "I will definitely go all out!"
Two hours later, the caravan had completed half of its journey.
"Try harder, we'll be basically safe once we get through the jungle ahead!" shouted the old leader.
Once you enter Yancheng, there will be more pedestrians on the road, and generally few bandits will choose to act in that area.
Because of this, there may be robbers lying in ambush in the jungle ahead.
Everyone was aware of this, and they all perked up and vigilantly observed the movements around them.
The team moved slowly and cautiously through the jungle under strict alert, but surprisingly, they did not notice any movement until they were about to exit the dense forest.
"Maybe he won't come." The old man breathed a sigh of relief.
Just when everyone thought they could pass safely, a group of people suddenly rushed out of the jungle ahead. They were all holding weapons and had murderous looks on their faces.
The leader was a man in the middle stage of the Earth Realm. Looking at the convoy in front of him, he grinned and said, "Hand over all the valuables to me!"
Seeing that the other side only had one person in the Earthly Realm, the leader scolded: "Have you eaten the courage of the Black Iron Demon Leopard?"
Mu Lingsha also stepped forward and released the aura of the Earthly Realm.
However, the bandits on the other side were unmoved, but grinned and said, "Haha, it seems you have misunderstood something?"
Before he finished his words, another group of people suddenly emerged from the rear of the caravan, and together with the previous group of bandits, they formed a pincer attack from the front and back, completely surrounding the caravan.
Mu Zi turned her head and looked. Her pupils shrank and then her eyes became solemn.
There were actually four people at the Earth Element Realm in the bandit group at the rear. Although they were all in the initial stage of cultivation, they should not be underestimated.
"Hahaha, big brother's move of attacking from both sides is really great! There's no way to escape now, right?"
The leading bandit glared fiercely: "Leave the valuables and the women behind, and I will spare the lives of the others!"
Soon, everyone in the caravan understood the situation, and a panic began to spread among the team.
