Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

Father and Son

“Eternally Youthful Ku Mu, do you insist on opposing me? I was the one who refined the five elements. For that reason, I am more than capable of returning them to their places, defusing Nine Heavens Demon Sealing Formation. Without the formation, you can’t stop me!”

“Destroy all five formation foundations if you dare. You know what the consequences are. Feng Haochen has Celestial Prison protecting him. I don’t care if I end up crippled. If you aren’t afraid to die, either, go for it! The formation will be complete in another two hours. If the situation hasn’t turned around by that time, you can do as you please!”

Xie Bulao was the type to decisively kill when he deemed necessary and hated being threatened. Kumu and Feng Haochen wanted still hoped the five could reverse the tables, nonetheless.

“Fine!”

Ku Mu pivoted around to Ju Mang.

Though the five spirit lords weren’t able to oppose even Ku Mu, it didn’t matter since all they had to do was force Xie Bulao’s hand.

Ju Mang snickered. “You came to be sealed with us?”

“I came to seal you.” Ku Mu summoned iron bars to detain Ju Mang.

Ju Mang attempted to utilise his Life and Death in the Blink of an Eye ability, only for Ku Mu to jam two trails of golden formation patterns into his eyes.

“You think you can fight me in my formation?”

Ku Mu manifested golden formation patterns on his fingertips after performing hand seals and poked two fingers on Ju Mang’s forehead. Energy flowed into Mu Yu’s mind. Ku Mu’s eyes started flashing gold as they formed a formation. Once prepared, he fired two rays of energy into Mu Yu’s consciousness.

Kumu landed in Waterstream Village. He saw Dazhuang and other kids bullying Mu Yu, while Mu Yu had his head down. He shook Mu Yu and called, “Mu Yu, snap out of it! It’s me!”

“Gramps, are you really just using me?” Mu Yu meekly questioned.

Ku Mu inhaled a big breath and answered, “Mu Yu, I admit I was only using you at first. Over time, before I realised it, you were no longer the same Mu Yu to me, and I was no longer the same Ku Mu. You changed me. Thanks to you, I was enlightened in many ways. Regardless of whether or not Feng Haochen restores his cultivation and rescues Miao Yuyan is no longer as important as it once was to me. I’m worried about you. No matter what you now see, I meant it when I said you are my pride.”

Mu Yu shuddered. Despondently, he inquired, “Why did my parents abandon me?”

Ku Mu didn’t have an answer. He never had a child of his own and hardly interacted with others until Mu Yu walked into his life. Mu Yu was the only person to genuinely care about him and understand him. Mulling over it, he came to a conclusion. “I know I might not be qualified; however… if you don’t mind, you can… can… You can treat me as your father.”

Dazhuang, who was watching the engagement, transformed into Xuan Ming. She burst into hysterical laughter. “Wow, I’m so touched. You think that’ll wake him up? It’s only going to disgust h-“

Xuan Ming’s grin stiffened. Mu Yu’s new glow struck her with fear. Mu Yu’s vision of Ku Mu gradually cleared until his tears blurred it again. The duo frequently bickered, but they never resented each other for a second. To the contrary, their trust was strong.

“I’ll be waiting outside.” Ku Mu got up and departed from Mu Yu’s memories.

“Hargh! Argh! Hargh! H-” Ju Mang shut his eyes and put up a struggle, but Mu Yu seized control of his own body again. He opened his eyes to see Ku Mu and cracked a big grin. “I heard that loud and clear. I’m your pride, right?”

Ku Mu heaved a breath of relief, but not for long. He wore on a stoic expression and admonished, “Shut up. Wake Qiao Xue up. Once Xuan Ming’s Death by Emotions is defused, everyone will have a chance of breaking free.”

Mu Yu shook his head and sighed. “Wait, how do I kick Xuan Ming out?”

“Ahem, since she likes you, perhaps you can wake her from her stupor. If that fails, just betray your conscience as I did and try to pepper in some touching comments.”

“You want me to touch her?” Mu Yu rubbed his chin. “Gramps, I have an idea. Give me a hand. I’m going in!”

Mu Yu suddenly leapt toward Qiao Xue. Xuan Ming quickly slipped away. Ku Mu thundered, “What do you mean you’re ‘going in’?! What indecent act are you planning to partake in?! This is no time for games!”

“What are you talking about? Is your pride a lecherous handsome man? Help me pin her down!”

Mu Yu had Wood Sprit Sword transform into branches to cuff Xuan Ming.

“Press her down? That still sounds indecent. Whatever!” Ku Mu manifested formation chains to restrain Xuan Ming.

Mu Yu had his wood spirit glue onto Qiao Xue’s water spirit. The two artefacts’ contact allowed Mu Yu to enter her memories.
