Chapter 517 - Beaten Jiao Fang

Jiao Fang had definitely not expected that his day would be like this today. Not only was his secret found out by someone and he was forced to reveal his true strength, but the person who had found this out was much stronger than him even though his cultivation base seemed to be much less.

He looked at Lin Mu who was casually standing there, as if he had not just tossed a High grade spirit weapon halberd like it was a toy. Even a Nascent Soul realm cultivator or a Dao Sh.e.l.l realm cultivator would find something like this hard to do.

Lin Mu looked at Jiao Fang, who was obviously shocked and decided to speak.

"So will you now be willing to listen, or should we continue and I break a few things?" Lin Mu stated.

Jiao Fang gritted his teeth and took a fighting stance again, which only made Lin Mu roll his eyes.

"I won't go easy this time…" Lin Mu muttered before pulling his hand back and clenching his fist.

It was unusual to Jiao Fang as Lin Mu had neither form nor technique in this. Yet, he couldn't feel but feel anxious for some reason.

~whoosh~

Then suddenly Jiao Fang felt a powerful aura emanating from Lin Mu. But this aura was not due to spirit Qi but rather vital energy.

'No… vital energy isn't this dense…' Jiao Fang thought.

This was true, as what Lin Mu was displaying was no vital energy but rather vital essence. This vital energy started to condense in his arm and the aura peaked.

~Fuwa~

Then Lin Mu punched towards Jiao Fang. The speed of this punch looked slow, but it was fast at the same time. Jiao Fang was too late to realize that the punch was simply leaving behind afterimages due to which it appeared to be slow.

Though the thing was, the punch didn't directly hit him. In fact, there was a distance of over three meters between him and Lin Mu. But even then, the punch was strong enough to knock the air out of him.

Lin Mu's punch created a jet of air that tore through most of Jiao Fang's defenses as if they were paper. The few defensive measures he was using, including defensive Qi skill and talismans, were ineffective as they were used to defend against Qi attacks. But what Lin Mu had just used was nothing but simple air, which the measure would not respond against as they were not programed for that.

Once this jet of air his Jiao Fang, he felt as if his chest would be crushed and it made him forcibly exhale air before he vomited out his stomach's contents. He had not eaten anything and thus all that came out was the stomach acid.

Then he was sent flying backward and collided against the tree that he was once sitting beside.

~thud~

A loud thud could be heard as the tree shook hard, its dry leaves falling to the ground and the small animals that lived on it like the squirrels and bird scampered away.

Jiao Fang's clothes had been torn and a black-blue bruise was visible on his chest. It took him a minute before he was able to come to his sense as he had pa.s.sed out due to the impact beforehand.

But even then it was hard for him to move, and he felt desperate.

'Where is he!?' Jiao Fang thought, still unable to speak, his ribs protesting with pain.

He barely lifted his head and turned his eyes to see Lin Mu calmly leaning against the flat rock where he was used to sitting. The man had not attacked him again, even though he fully had the ability to. In fact, in that state Jiao Fang was so helpless that even a child would have been able to kill him.

"W-w... w-why?" Jiao Fang spoke after a minute more.

This single word took a lot of effort for him, as even breathing was painful to him.

"Oh? What did you say?" Lin Mu asked with raised brows.

"-why… did… you… not… kill… me?" Jiao Fang asked, speaking each word after an agonizing breath.

"Oh, like is said I want to cooperate with you. Do what I ask and everything will be fine." Lin Mu replied.

Jiao Fang was now truly confused. He couldn't tell if his pain was greater or his confusion. He had a hard time believing the man in front of him, but the facts were all there. If Lin Mu truly wanted to kill him, he had plenty of options.

Originally Jiao Fang had thought that Lin Mu was someone who was after the treasures that he had acc.u.mulated, but now he couldn't help but think over his offer again.

"Re-really?" Jiao Fang asked again.

~Sigh~

"This will take a long time for us to figure out if you speak on like this." Lin Mu said before taking out a vial from his spatial storage ring.

"Take this," Lin Mu said, extending the vial in his hand towards the injured Jiao Fang.

"It will heal your injuries." Lin Mu added.

Jiao Fang looked at it in hesitation but then reckoned that it should not be any problem. Lin Mu already had plenty of options to kill him, but he had taken none. It would take much less for him to kill him rather than using some poisoned pill, which would be more expensive.

Jiao Fang extended his trembling hand and took the vial from Lin Mu. He held the vial to his mouth before pulling off the cap with his teeth. His other hand was numb from the impact and he was barely able to move it currently.

As soon as the vial was open, Jiao Fang could smell the medicinal aroma from the pill and realized what pill it was. After all, he was a disciple of the Tri cauldron peony sect.

'Pneuma Healing Pill? A mid grade one at that?' Jiao Fang recognized.
