Chapter 1078

Sword Shadow

“Please find a way a recruit those not willing to live under Third Heaven Palace’s tyranny. You should be able to covertly recruit members with your reputations. In saying that, please remember to lay low and be careful. You are supposed to be dead, so Third Heaven Palace will lynch you again if they find out you are still alive,” Mu Yu directed.

“Understood, My Lord,” enthusiastically responded the forty-six cultivators.

Mu Yu created forty-six tokens imbued with a long-distance communication formation so that everyone could keep in contact. Mu Yu next had Lu Deyi and Situ Yangtian introduce themselves to the forty-six. Once they were back at Formation Sect, though, Village Chief Bu and Zhuge Xiaosheng would have the final say when communicating. The reason Mu Yu delegated the tasks was simply due to having his plate full and Village Chief Bu being the superior strategist.

After seeing off the forty-six cultivators, Lu Deyi, face glowing, effused, “You’re incredible, Mu Yu. Forty-six cultivators recruited in one go, all of whom are household names, not to mention that they’re now instating you as their hope.”

Situ Yangtian added, “Forsooth, both you and True God are now the ray of light for them. I am sure Elder Bu will be able to give Third Heaven Palace a hard time using Sword Shadow.”

Mu Yu expressed, “I will be troubling both of you from now as you are the group’s first point of contact. Please stay in contact with them at all times and help them remove any obstacles they come across.”

“I am at your command,” conveyed Situ Yangtian.

Beaming casually, Lu Deyi gushed, “Mu Yu, thanks to your revival ability, we can work fearlessly from now on. Even if we’re tortured, we’ll be able to get through it more easily, knowing there’s a light at the end of the tunnel.”

“No, my Life and Death in the Blink of an Eye can only be cast once on an individual, and there are plenty of limitations to it,” Mu Yu warned.

“I don’t understand.”

“He means that you only have two lives. Once you die twice, you’re permanently dead,” explained Xiaoshuai.

“In that case, I’m more than happy to throw one away when need be. How many people get a second chance at life?” Lu Deyi remained positive.

“Greater Heaven Caster Lu, you must cherish your life. The reason I could resurrect them was because their soul still existed. Once Third Heaven Palace learn of my ability, they will steal the soul of the dead right after committing murder. If they take your soul, I cannot revive you.”

Lu Deyi’s smile stiffened. “I thought your domain ability could revive the dead in any condition.”

Mu Yu stood up and, in a stern tone, ordered, “Greater Heaven Caster Lu, as patriarch, I hereby order you to consult Situ Yangtian, who will have the final say, when on missions with him henceforth. You are not to jeopardise yourself and prioritise your safety under any condition, understood?”

Reluctant to let Situ Yangtian order him around, Lu Deyi protested, “But, M-”

“You’re going to argue with Patriarch now?” admonished Situ Yangtian.

Lu Deyi changed his tone upon realising Mu Yu had been so lax with him that he did not realise he stepped out of line. “Understood, Patriarch.”

“I am not going to coincidentally be around to save you every time. If you die, then you’re gone for good and cost us morale with your loss. The only way you can make up for a mistake is if you’re alive. I need someone who can help me, not someone chasing a death wish!” reproved Mu Yu, saying what he said for the sake of respecting the elder he respected.

Face and ears a matching red, Lu Deyi bowed his head. “Understood, Patriarch.”

As Mu Yu helped him up, Lu Deyi courteously voiced, “What orders do you have, Patriarch? Your subject will do the best he can.”

“You don’t have to go so far, Greater Heaven Caster Lu. When it comes to business, follow the official rules. Otherwise, just call me Mu Yu. Patriarch this and Patriarch that just makes me feel uncomfortable.”

Lu Deyi knew and was a fan of Mu Yu’s humble temperament. Lu Deyi was willing to work for Mu Yu not just because the latter was competent but also because of said temperament. Lu Deyi’s smile bloomed again. “Mu Yu, are we going to Mystic Spirit Sect to investigate Archfiend Tiangan’s whereabouts?”

“Mm… No, You two should relay Sword Shadow’s formation to Grandpa Village Chief and Patriarch so that they can follow up. Work together to build it up. In the meantime, I will go to Mystic Spirit Sect.”

“By yourself?”

“What do you mean by himself?” Xiaoshuai kicked Lu Deyi in the leg.

“Haha, sorry, sorry, little guy.”

Situ Yangtian chewed out Lu Deyi. “Mu Yu basically has no rivals below Apotheosis Realm. We’re not even Ascension Realm cultivators. What would our purpose be? Dead weight?”

“It’s easier if just Xiaoshuai and I move around. Third Heaven Palace’s scheme has been exposed, and cultivators are seeing the truth now. We need to rescue everyone who is taking a stand. If they don’t want to stand up, there’s nothing we can do.”

“Understood.”

As they left, Situ Yangtian smugly jibed, “Remember what Mu Yu said: follow my instructions, and stop trying to be a hero courting death.”

“Shut up. Mu Yu only meant important things. I’m not listening to you when it comes to anything else,” snapped Lu Deyi.

It was just Situ Yangtian and Lu Deyi being themselves. Therefore, Mu Yu let them be and commenced his journey to Mystic Spirit Sect, which was not too far from where he was.

While Mystic Spirit Sect was home to a fair number of Ascension Realm cultivators, few of their disciples really stood out. Their patriarch, Ling Yeshang, was an Ascension Realm Fifth Layer cultivator who had not been active in the cultivation world for years.

The formation protecting the sect surrounded by a fortress of mountains was no longer under Formation Sect’s care but Third Heaven Palace. As such, sneaking in without alarming Mystic Spirit Sect was difficult.

“We’re still fifty kilometres or so away from Mystic Spirit Sect, but something about the qi I sense is amiss…”
