Chapter 149 - Chapter 149: Vitality Lines

Chu Feng led Mu Yunxinyu back to the White Tiger Mountain Village. Along the way, they indeed encountered many assassins. Some were masked to conceal their identities, while others wore normal military uniforms. Mu Yunxinyu even recognized some of them.

They immediately attacked upon meeting, aiming to take Mu Yunxinyu's life. Fortunately, Chu Feng protected her, and they didn't encounter particularly powerful masters. So, they had a relatively smooth journey. At least, no one could stop Chu Feng.

However, this made Mu Yunxinyu very uneasy and panicked. She felt that something must have happened in the White Tiger Mountain Village, but Chu Feng was getting increasingly smug. Because he hoped that there would be internal strife in the White Tiger Mountain Village, which would allow him to take advantage of the situation.

However, when Chu Feng and others headed towards the White Tiger Mountain Village, they found that a large number of White Tiger Mountain Village masters were fighting outside the village, while inside the village, there was a continuous shouting and roaring.

"Oh my god, how could this happen?"

The betrayal was indeed that someone had defected. Looking at those people in the village who used to get along like family members, they were now killing each other. Mu Yunxinyu's face was pale, her eyes flickered, revealing an indescribable emotion.

But it could be seen that she was very nervous, very panicked, and she was completely at a loss. She wanted to stop them but was powerless because everything today was beyond her imagination and she had never expected it.

"Judging by this, you must be a girl who is detached from the world." Looking at such Mu Yunxinyu, Chu Feng smiled.

"What do you mean?" Mu Yunxinyu coldly questioned.

Although she couldn't practice martial arts, she was intelligent, so her father had entrusted many matters of the village to her. But now, she was being insulted by a boy who was much younger than her. This made her very unhappy.

"Such a large-scale internal turmoil was clearly premeditated. Your White Tiger Mountain Village has already been divided invisibly in the background."

"And you, as the eldest daughter of the White Tiger Mountain Village and the daughter of the White Tiger Mountain Village, were completely unaware before this. Now, you show such a helpless look at this moment. Didn't you say you were detached from the world before?" Chu Feng sneered coldly.

"You..." Mu Yunxinyu wanted to argue, but she couldn't find a reason to do so because Chu Feng was right. Although she was very intelligent, she lacked scheming skills. She only saw the surface harmony of the White Tiger Mountain Village and didn't realize the huge potential danger behind it.

She hated herself for it. Her father had been in seclusion for a long time, and many matters of the village were handled by her and her uncle. But when there were problems within the village, she was completely unaware. This made her unable to face her father.

"I have a question for you. Don't you know who organized this turmoil by now?" Chu Feng asked.

"I... " Mu Yunxinyu looked completely bewildered.

"Ah, it seems that a too harmonious life does indeed make people become dull." Chu Feng shook his head and reminded, "Think about it. If it wasn't done by outsiders, then in your family, who could have such a great charisma to make so many people serve him, even willing to bear the charge of being convicted, and still carry out the rebellion?"

"Could this be him?" Mu Yunxinyu suddenly understood, but she couldn't believe it.

"Who is it?" Chu Feng asked.

"I... " Mu Yunxinyu was somewhat at a loss.

"Are you still trying to keep this from me at this time? I am the only one who can help you." Chu Feng said.

And looking at Chu Feng who seemed genuinely willing to help her, and thinking about the journey they had taken, if it weren't for Chu Feng's protection, she would have lost her life long ago. Mu Yunxinyu slowly said:

"My uncle, Mu Yunjian, in the White Tiger Mountain Village, except for my father, only he has such great charisma. Although during my father's seclusion period, many matters of the village were handled by me." "But I dealt with all the internal matters. The real major affairs of the villa were handled by my uncle. But now, when I think about it, during the years when my father was in seclusion, the actual power of White Tiger Villa was indeed controlled by my uncle."

Thinking about this, Mu Yunxinyu realized the severity of the consequences, but still couldn't accept this fact. She couldn't imagine how my uncle could do such a thing to the villa.

"This incident can't be blamed on you. You are still too inexperienced in the world. The only one to blame is that your father trusted your uncle too much."

"Judging from the current situation, your uncle must have been planning this for a long time. Now that he has seized the power and usurped the throne, the first thing to eliminate is definitely your father. Where did your father go for seclusion?"

Chu Feng was outwardly concerned, but actually was secretly gathering clues. Although the secrets of White Tiger Villa were unknown to many, Chu Feng felt that the owner of White Tiger Villa couldn't possibly have no clue at all.

And the owner of White Tiger Villa, the place where he secluded himself was definitely not simple. Chu Feng wanted to sneak in, and Mu Yunxinyu could help Chu Feng. This girl, although smart, lacked scheming skills, and was indeed easy to be taken advantage of.

"Uh-oh, my uncle has the key to the vital passage. If he..." Hearing Chu Feng's words, Mu Yunxinyu's face changed drastically. Without a word, she ran towards the other side of White Tiger Villa.

Seeing this, Chu Feng didn't say anything. Instead, he followed closely behind and soon Mu Yunxinyu led Chu Feng to a chaotic pile of rocks outside White Tiger Villa.

This could be described as a stone forest, but it was too chaotic. It should have been a scene formed by the collapse of the mountain. Chu Feng extended his spiritual energy and couldn't sense anything unusual. These stones were just ordinary rocks, and there were no rules to the layout.

But seeing Mu Yunxinyu's circling movements and looking around, it was obvious that she was looking for something. This place was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

And just at this moment, after Mu Yunxinyu found a huge rock, she finally let out a sigh of relief. She took out the jade necklace around her neck and inserted it into a groove of a huge rock. The chaotic rocks changed, and soon a deep passage emerged.

When the tunnel opened, Mu Yunxinyu hurriedly ran inside, and Chu Feng also hurriedly followed. But as soon as they stepped into the entrance, it automatically closed. However, at this moment, in Chu Feng's view, there wasn't total darkness.

Because here, it could be said to be extremely magnificent and splendid. There were countless murals on both sides of the passage, all very exquisite. There were also light stones hanging from the ceiling, making this passage as bright as day. Most importantly, the ancient and simple atmosphere that surrounded them told Chu Feng that this place had been built for a long time, at least several hundred years.

"Lifeblood. It seems to be exactly where I'm looking for." Chu Feng's lips curled into a faint smile. This place was truly too secluded, and even his spiritual energy couldn't sense any anomaly. Had it not been for Mu Yunxinyu leading him here, Chu Feng might have spent an entire lifetime searching and still not have found it.
