Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

Chapter 1135

Forgotten Memories

Everyone solemnly waited for Mu Yu to speak up after Ku Mu pointed out the depressing odds against them.

“Dad, please bring Elder Yuande here,” requested Mu Yu.

“All right.” Ku Mu willed Daoist Yuande into Pill Palace.

“Don’t kill him. Don’t kill me. Don’t…” Daoist Yuande shouted as he frantically looked around, body trembling.

“I’m okay. Don’t beat yourself up.” Ku Mu cast a formation on Daoist Yuande’s back to calm the latter. “Mu Yu, I’ve asked them to collect information over the last year and created half of an origin restoration pill; however, I’ve been stuck there ever since. How about you try completing it since you have your wood control ability?”

Helian Kong added, “If you can produce the pill, we might also be able to heal Reverend Nilei and Daoist Chu Buqu.”

“Dad, how many origin restoration pills have you produced?” Mu Yu asked.

“Two. The materials are incredibly challenging to find.”

“Hmm… Leave those two for now. I’ll use an alternative method to treat Daoist Yuande.”

Mu Yu deployed Life and Death Universe Ruler, firing black and white beams from his eyes into Daoist Yuande’s head accordingly. Mu Yu reversed Daoist Yuande’s memories and injuries – the reverse of what he did to Han Xiangluan. Within moments, Daoist Yuande’s trembling ceased.

“M-Mu Yu? Ap-Apotheosis Realm?”

Mu Yu retracted his domain and smiled. “You all right, Elder?”

Daoist Yundan got out of his seat. “Are you all right, Uncle?”

Daoist Yuande, finally recalling all of his memories, including his time under Bai Jie’s control, timidly nodded. “I’m all right.”

Mu Yu instructed, “Now, we need to tackle the foreign races. Besides my three senior brothers and I, mankind also has the unorthodox faction’s Ximen Buxing and Wanwan, as well Elder Chu Buqu’s disciple, Chu Xiachi, in the Apotheosis Realm category. In spite of that, the odds are still stacked against us. Please prepare yourselves to take on missions at any given moment.”

“We are at your service, Lord Mu Yu.” Everyone present bowed to Mu Yu.

Daoist Yuande, staying behind, waited for everyone to show themselves out, then dropped onto his knees. “Lord Mu Yu, Lord Ku Mu, please forgive me.”

Ku Mu immediately pulled Daoist Yuande to his feet. “Why are you kneeling to us? I thought Mu Yu already fixed your head.”

“I…” The seeds of embarrassment blossomed upon Daoist Yuande’s cheeks. “I apologise for my words and actions in the past, Lord Ku Mu, Lord Mu Yu…”

“Just call me by my name, Elder. Calling us Lord This and Lord That feels awkward; it’s unlike you. Besides, you’re my dad’s father-in-law.”

With a stiff expression, Ku Mu teased, “Aren’t you usually stubborn? You don’t feel complete if you don’t have a go at me whenever you see me?”

“Where have I heard something like that before?” Mu Yu remarked, stroking his chin.

Ku Mu warned Mu Yu to shut up with his glare.

Daoist Yuande shook his head. “I cannot deny my ignorance. I misunderstood for so many years, unaware you had reached Apotheosis Realm and become the owner of Revealing Cauldron. I always thought you quit trying to progress when you abandoned alchemy…”

Ku Mu floated to a chair to sit. “You make it sound like I need to report everything I do to you.”

“I know you left for Daoist Yundan’s sake. I was so busy raging back then that I didn’t think of it. I only have myself to blame for being asinine.”

“So you do know how to admit you’re asinine.”

Mu Yu burst into laughter. “Elder, you should let it go now. My dad is ruthless on the surface, but he’s happier than anyone else to see you back to yourself. He’s just insistent on keeping up appearances and dislikes saying nice th-”

“Who likes to keep up appearances?”  Ku Mu snapped.

“Not my dad.”

“Because he prefers being shameless!” Xiaoshuai commented.

Smack!

“I didn’t say that! Why’d you hit me over the head again?! Hit Xiaoshuai!”

“Hahaha, I see you haven’t changed at all, Mu Yu.” Daoist Yuande finally brightened up.

“Some things don’t need to change. We’re all family here, after all. Banter in the family is normal. I’m not an unapproachable person, anyway,” Mu Yu responded.

“Does that mean… I can tell people I’m Lord Ku Mu’s father-in-law now?”

“I see you haven’t changed, either, always knowing how to take advantage of the situation,” Mu Yu grumbled.

Ku Mu scoffed, “You expect Ancestor Helian Kong to address you as his elder?”

“Pretend I never said it. I’ll just keep it in my heart. You two are my juniors, aft-”

“Your face must be as thick as city walls,” Xiaoshuai ribbed.

“I will do my part to help the coalition and show that my conviction is solid even though I’m too old to make up for my wrongs.”

“You mean you’re going to go feed them a soul, Alchemist,” Ku Mu grouched, referring to the weak combat abilities of alchemists.

Daoist Yuande awkwardly tugged his beard. “By the way, I forgot to tell you about something I happen to learn by a stroke of luck when I visited Third Heaven Palace. Bai Jie mentioned that they could live freely in Third Heaven if they could find Vacant Spirit Grounds to destroy its balance. I don’t know if it’s any help to you since I don’t know what he’s referring to.”

“You sure?” Ku Mu frowned.
