Before leaving the central castle, Xu Mu transformed multiple times to ensure that he left no traces or was followed. Only then did he return via the same route.
"This woman is really waiting for me outside!"
Xu Mu had originally planned to go straight back to his cave dwelling on Misty Morning Island, but he saw Zhang Tianluo waiting for him on a rocky shoal of a nearby island, looking like a fool.
She didn't sense him at all as he walked up to her camouflaged with his invisibility technique.
"This bastard, idiot, why is he taking so long? Has something happened? Should I go take a look? What does it have to do with me? Better off dead! No, he hasn't taught me the martial method yet. I still need…"
"Still need what?"
Xu Mu suddenly appeared, startling Zhang Tianluo.
The moment she realized it was Xu Mu, her face lit up with joy, but she quickly concealed it and readopted a look of disgust.
"I need to teach you a good lesson! Humph!"
