“Mu Xiong, how did you end up here, with the president and the others?”

The most excited was Pu Xingchang, who rushed over first, seemingly very familiar with this shadow, and said with excitement.

“This is Mu Cangwu, the vice president of the Xingzhou Merchant Association, from the same faction as Pu Xingchang, and one of the many powerful figures who rushed into the Spatial Seal…” Rao Yuange knew that Qin Chen did not recognize the other party and quickly explained, his expression also filled with excitement.

Initially, he even thought that the people who had intruded before had met with misfortune, but now seeing Mu Cangwu, he felt ecstatic. Since Mu Cangwu could survive, it was highly likely that the others were still alive.

Thinking about it, those who could break in earlier were the top experts of Tianlei City, and some of them were even much more terrifying than Feng Kangan. Since Feng Kangan could survive under the attack of the shadow, then many others who came in could also survive. For instance, their Tianxun Association's president, Gongsun Zhe. Rao Yuange did not doubt that President Gongsun could survive here; the president's strength far exceeded his imagination.

Now that he saw Mu Cangwu, they had the chance to find the president and the others; how could he not be excited?

Everyone was in a state of excitement and didn’t notice that, facing the agitated Pu Xingchang, Mu Cangwu's face showed no fluctuation at all; he merely stared coldly at everyone, making them feel a shiver down their spines, very uncomfortable.

“Mu Xiong, what’s wrong with you?” Pu Xingchang also noticed something was off with Mu Cangwu at this moment and hurriedly asked.

“Be careful.” A voice of alarm rang out; it was Qin Chen.

But it was already too late; a sharp glint flashed in Mu Cangwu's eyes, his right hand raised, and with a roar, a pitch-black blade light instantly erupted, with a fierce blade aura soaring to several zhang high, devouring everything in its path. The extreme darkness nearly swallowed all surrounding light, like a splash of ink.

Pu Xingchang did not expect Mu Cangwu to suddenly attack him. By the time he wanted to react after Qin Chen's reminder, it was already too late. In a moment of crisis, he could only create a true essence barrier in front of him, while a shield appeared in front, and his figure suddenly retreated.

Crack!

The pitch-black blade light was too fast. Before Pu Xingchang could retreat far enough, he was struck by a single blow. First, a piercing explosion sounded, and the shield treasure that Pu Xingchang took pride in was instantly split with a crack, followed by a loud bang as it shattered into pieces. The blade light closed in, and Pu Xingchang's true essence shield under that pitch-black blade light was like paper, instantly torn apart.

Then came the blood rain. Pu Xingchang's body was torn apart from top to bottom, killing him on the spot. Countless blood splattered in the void, drawn by an invisible force. Pu Xingchang's body instantly turned into a corpse, crashing to the ground with a thud. Just a moment ago, he was a living person, and now he was a dried corpse, devoid of any moisture or blood, his split face showing terror and ferocity, unprecedentedly horrifying.

One strike!

Only one strike.

Pu Xingchang fell!

Rao Yuange and Lu Zian both gasped in shock, their expressions filled with horror.

How could this be possible? As top experts of Tianlei City, they knew Mu Cangwu's strength very well; he and Pu Xingchang were about equal, perhaps slightly stronger than Pu Xingchang, but only marginally.

Yet now, Pu Xingchang couldn’t even block a single strike and was killed by Mu Cangwu, leaving both of them feeling unprecedented shock.

Even more shocking was Mu Cangwu's actions. He was also a vice president of the Xingzhou Merchant Association; why would Mu Cangwu kill Pu Xingchang? Could it be that he was also controlled by that shadow?

But that was impossible!

They had not been controlled by that shadow before. Once controlled, although one loses consciousness, one's cultivation does not change at all, and one cannot use martial skills, only instinctively using true essence to attack.
