The night was dark and the wind high, a perfect night for murder.
Anticipating that the Yang Family would dispatch an expert to clear the Demon Ant Emperor from their territory, Chu Mu, too, exercised his rights as the Henghai Young Master Yan. He summoned ten Nightmare Demon Palace killers from his residency in the Gangluo City Nightmare Demon Palace. These killers stealthily hid in Yang Family's territory, awaiting the arrival of their prey.
The Yang Family's manor within this territory was situated in a shallow valley. Steep mountains encompassed either side of the valley. Chu Mu, clad in black, stealthily approached their manor, astride on his Night Thunder Dream Beast, which nimbly leapt against the mountain cliffs under the cover of darkness.
Behind Chu Mu, ten Nightmare Demon Palace killers, all wearing night clothing, each tamed a different Soul Pet. They chased suavely along the perilous mountain ranges without making a single noise.
