"Zhao, my brother, long time no see!"

Bai Rong stepped out from the group and greeted Zhao Rui with a clasped hand.

"No nonsense!"

Zhao Rui showed no courtesy to Bai Rong and directly cursed, "Bai Rong, your subordinate, Zhang Xiu, just insulted me. And you, at that time, didn't seem to care at all. I, Zhao Rui, will not consider you a friend. Hand over Zhang Xiu, or don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Brother Zhao wants Zhang Xiu?" Bai Rong pretended to be surprised.

Zhao Rui's face darkened with anger, "What? You dare refuse?"

"Haha! How would I dare, how would I dare!"

Bai Rong laughed, "It's just that Zhang Xiu and I are partners. I can't decide for him. If Brother Zhao wishes for him, why not speak to him directly? Brother Zhang, Zhao Rui is calling your name."

With that, he turned his gaze to Xiao Mu.

"Thank you, Respected Envoy Bai, I heard everything."

Xiao Mu smiled, stepped out from the group, shoulder to shoulder with Bai Rong, and calmly glanced at Zhao Rui. Then, he sneered, "Zhao Rui, what are you that dares to speak my name?"

"How dare you! Shut up!"

"Zhang Xiu, you are audacious to speak like this to Respected Envoy Zhao!"

"Zhang Xiu, you're courting death! Trouble comes from the mouth!"

As soon as Xiao Mu spoke, the crowd on Zhao Rui's side erupted in angry roars, with many Mutated Beings accusing and cursing him.

Xiao Mu was indifferent to their words and replied with a faint smile, "What? Can't Zhao Rui be spoken of? Today, I will speak deliberately. What can Zhao Rui do to me?"

"Hehe!"

Zhao Rui sneered suddenly, his face turning black as coldness emanated from him. Clearly enraged, he stared fiercely at Xiao Mu, "Very well, very well! Zhang Xiu, you have guts. This is your second insult to me."

Xiao Mu remained unaffected and calmly said, "Zhao Rui, stop pretending. Even if this were the third insult, the fourth insult, what could you do to me? With your power, you have no right to intimidate anyone, and you certainly can't scare me."

"Shut up!"

"Zhang Xiu, shut up!"

"How dare you defy Respected Envoy Zhao! You're courting death!"

Once again, Zhao Rui's crowd erupted in angry roars, seven or eight people cursing Xiao Mu simultaneously.

Xiao Mu glanced at those shouting at him, discovering most of them were Divine Spirits.

"Shut up! It's you who should shut up!"

Xiao Mu suddenly used True Force to retaliate, his roar causing their ears to ache.

"I'm furious, Respected Envoy Zhao, Zhang Xiu insulted you, which equals insulting me. Please allow me to act and teach him a lesson."

A black-robed Divine Spirit suddenly jumped out from the crowd, pleading with Zhao Rui.

Seeing this, a faint smile appeared on Xiao Mu's face. This Divine Spirit voluntarily jumped out to court death, and he welcomed it.

However, Zhao Rui did not have any intention of letting the black-robed Divine Spirit act on his behalf. He waved his hand, stopping the black-robed man, and let him return to the group.

The black-robed Divine Spirit returned unwillingly but couldn't help glaring fiercely at Xiao Mu.

You glare at me, I will remember!

Xiao Mu, subtly, memorized the appearance of this Divine Spirit, intending to deal with Zhao Rui first and then settle accounts with him.

Zhao Rui himself earnestly looked at Xiao Mu again, "Zhang Xiu, you have a lot of guts. Are you only a Divine Spirit yourself? Daring to defy me, a True God Realm, aren't you afraid of death?"

Xiao Mu calmly responded, "Realm doesn't represent everything. Xiao Mu is a Divine Spirit too, killing True Gods like killing dogs. Zhao Rui, don't be arrogant. Although I am a Divine Spirit, killing you, a True God Realm, is not difficult at all."

"No wonder!"

Zhao Rui nodded and gazed distantly at Xiao Mu, seriously saying, "No wonder you're so arrogant. You believe your strength is enough to beat the strong while being weak with just the body of a Divine Spirit defeating True God Realm. But..."

His tone then shifted to disdain, "Having confidence is one thing, whether it can be done is another. Xiao Mu could defeat True God Realm because he is Xiao Mu. Xiao Mu can, but that doesn't mean others can."

"At least, I don't see any characteristics in you, Zhang Xiu, sufficient to support you in defeating True God Realm."

"Forget it, with so much said, you surely won't be convinced."

"Fortunately, I'm not here mainly to talk to you; my goal is to teach you, to make you understand respect."

"Zhang Xiu, come out. Since you assume you can defeat True God Realm with your Divine Spirit cultivation, why not come out and face me in battle?"

Saying that, Zhao Rui stepped out from the crowd, walked to the center of the field, and stood between the two groups.

"Haha!"

Xiao Mu couldn't help but laugh as he walked slowly out from the crowd, taunting as he went, "Zhao Rui, stop flattering yourself. I've long wanted to fight you; it's you who is talking too much nonsense!"

Zhao Rui calmly observed Xiao Mu, gradually settling down.

Actually, his earlier anger was just an act.

Leading his troops back was not only to kill 'Zhang Xiu' and establish authority but also to seize the opportunity to drive Bai Rong's team away, adding chips for himself to compete for Bai Jing's Treasury.

At this moment, seeing Xiao Mu emerging from the group, he instead became calm, looked at Xiao Mu, and coolly said, "Very well, I must admit, you have much courage, daring to truly rely on a Divine Spirit's body to battle me, a True God Realm. Though you die, you die with honor!"
