Capítulo 1496: Chapter 1500: The Mysterious Person

If it weren’t for the Murong Family harboring people from the Upper Realm, Lin Fei wouldn’t care about the Murong Family’s matters. However, the Murong Family is now extremely dangerous, so he must be cautious.

Lin Fei recounted the events to Liu Muqing. Upon learning about people from the Upper Realm, Liu Muqing not only furrowed his brows but also walked towards the Family Head of the Murong Family.

The Murong Family was originally standing together. At this moment, seeing Liu Muqing coming over, one person from the Murong Family said something to their Family Head, who hurriedly turned around, looked at Liu Muqing, and then cupped his hands towards Liu Muqing.

“Sect Master of Beidou Sect has arrived, what a pleasure!” The Murong Family Head was extremely polite to Liu Muqing, almost like a servant.

Liu Muqing didn’t give him any face. Instead, he sternly asked, “I’ve heard your Murong Family is harboring people from the Upper Realm? Is this true?”

The Murong Family Head looked at Lin Fei, wishing he could slap Lin Fei to death. Unfortunately, the Murong Family Head knew he was no longer a match for Lin Fei, so even though he was furious, he had to suppress his emotions and avoid thinking about this matter.

“Well… how could our Murong Family harbor people from the Upper Realm? Please don’t believe the rumors. Our Murong Family is also part of the opposition against those forces.”

It’s well known that families from the Lower Realm absolutely harbor deep hatred for people from the Upper Realm, as those who arrived from the Upper Realm are confirmed to have violated their own strength and have attacked the various families, killing many innocent people.

As a result, families from the Lower Realm are filled with rage when hearing about people from the Upper Realm, wishing to tear them apart.

“Are you telling the truth?” Liu Muqing furrowed his brows. He knew his junior brother would never deceive him, so after some consideration, he decided to trust Lin Fei and not the Murong Family Head.

Liu Muqing actually understood the character of the Murong Family Head, since Liu Muqing himself often traveled outside in the past. How could he not know certain people?

“Of course, it’s true. How could I deceive the Sect Leader of Beidou Sect?” The Murong Family Head firmly insisted it was mere rumor and couldn’t be believed. At this moment, Lin Fei couldn’t help but speak up.

“By the way, Murong Family Head, where is the esteemed elder from your Murong Family? Didn’t he come?” Lin Fei was referring to the Murong Family’s old grandfather, but it seemed he wasn’t present now.

“The old grandfather hasn’t been feeling well lately, so he didn’t come. By the way, Lin Fei, do you have any business with our Murong Family’s old grandfather?” The Murong Family Head feigned a confused look, making Lin Fei wish he could crush his head into the ground.

“I see. Yet you still remain here, even knowing a person’s life is short, especially when an ill old man doesn’t seek treatment?” Lin Fei chuckled and responded.

But the Murong Family Head merely nodded, then smiled, thanked Lin Fei for his concern for their Elder, and left.

“What does my senior brother think?” Lin Fei asked.

Liu Muqing’s brows were tightly knit, “We can’t let this matter go. Any person from the Upper Realm deserves to die! Especially since the Murong Family dares to do this, harboring people from the Upper Realm, it suggests that the Murong Family likely has some connections with that person from the Upper Realm, although not disclosed.”

“Are you implying that the Murong Family wants to use this person from the Upper Realm?” Lin Fei asked in surprise, considering it indeed seemed plausible!

“As for what they might do, I don’t know nor do I care. I’m only concerned with whether they will wreak havoc, and if they do, I will definitely eliminate the Murong Family!”

Although Liu Muqing spoke in such a way, Lin Fei understood that Liu Muqing definitely wouldn’t ignore this matter; he would certainly intervene.

Lin Fei couldn’t manage it himself due to his limited strength. At this moment, Lin Fei recalled one thing: the Divine Stone.

The Divine Stone’s function is simple, yet highly unique. It can detect people from the Upper Realm and ascertain the distance to them.

Thus, after Lin Fei took out the Divine Stone, he found it flickering wildly, clearly indicating the person from the Upper Realm was nearby, causing Lin Fei great alarm.

“Junior brother, is something wrong?” Liu Muqing asked, puzzled, looking at Lin Fei.

Softly, Lin Fei informed Liu Muqing that the person from the Upper Realm was actually among them, though they hadn’t revealed themselves.

Upon hearing this, Liu Muqing became entirely alert, his gaze swept around, observing the numerous people, but it seemed difficult to pinpoint an individual from the Upper Realm.

At that moment, Liu Muqing suddenly dashed towards someone in black, and that person swiftly moved, vanishing before everyone’s eyes.

Aware there was definitely an issue with the person in black, Lin Fei also chased after Liu Muqing, leaving behind a group of Beidou Sect disciples standing stunned.

Liu Muqing pursued the shadow for over ten minutes, leading them to a desolate, densely wooded area.

“Still trying to escape!” Liu Muqing coldly said. In the next moment, his body suddenly surged forward like a shadow, forcibly increasing his power, boosting his speed enormously.

Following behind, Lin Fei distinctly sensed that Liu Muqing had just exhibited the third layer of the Demon Refinement Technique.

Lin Fei wasn’t surprised, knowing Liu Muqing was originally a disciple of Beidou Sect, allowing him to view any cultivation technique. The third layer of Demon Refinement Technique was originally from the Beidou Sect’s Book Pavilion. Later, by sheer luck, Lin Fei obtained the entire Demon Refinement Technique, thus cultivated it without any side effects.

Of course, Lin Fei realized the so-called side effects were simply intended for the weak. With great strength, such a technique had no side effects, and even if there were, one wouldn’t feel it.

Now Lin Fei’s strength is so robust that even if there were side effects, he wouldn’t notice.

Liu Muqing instantly appeared in front of the elusive shadow, startling the other party, causing them to urgently halt before crashing.

“Who are you? Why have you come to the Lower Realm?” Liu Muqing didn’t initiate an attack but instead questioned the person directly.

The person in black sneered, “Liu Muqing, mind your own business. Have you forgotten that back in the Upper Realm, you caused your Beidou Sect’s downfall due to intervening too much?”

Upon hearing this, Liu Muqing’s body suddenly shook, fists clenched, and he stared coldly at the person in black, his expression so frosty, it seemed he might strike any moment…
