Gan Yun, rather than approaching Xiao Mu, stopped at a certain distance from him and ceased his escape light.

This person smiled, "Brother Zhang, please believe that I mean no harm. The reason I sought you out is because I recently found out that you are planning to reclaim Bai Jing — no, the Lord of Bai's Mansion's treasury treasure."

"Coincidentally, Bai Rong and I, we were both involved in the birth of the Lord of Bai's Mansion's treasury treasure, and each received some treasures."

"We once joined forces with Brother Zhang to deal with Ma Fang and Zhao Rui. Brother Zhang's heroic figure still lingers in our minds whenever we think of it."

"Bai Rong and I, all of us came together and decided that since Brother Zhang wants to reclaim the Lord of Bai's Mansion's treasury treasure, and we have cooperated with Brother Zhang before, how could we not make it possible?"

"Therefore, we all felt that the Lord of Bai's Mansion's treasury treasure should be returned to Brother Zhang. I represent everyone and have collected the treasure to find Brother Zhang and return it to you. Brother Zhang..."

As Gan Yun spoke, he suddenly took out several storage boxes from his body, lifted them with one hand, inputted true force, and the storage boxes all floated smoothly, flying toward Xiao Mu. "All the Lord's mansion treasury treasures are here, please, Brother Zhang, check and receive."

Xiao Mu, seeing the storage boxes flying towards him, waved his hand and set up a wall of true force in front of him.

Under the support of Xiao Mu's true force, the storage boxes slowly sank to the ground on his left side.

Xiao Mu focused his gaze on Gan Yun.

Prior, he truly hadn't anticipated that Gan Yun would seek him out to hand over the Lord of Bai's Mansion's treasury treasure. This act indeed left him a little stunned.

But it only stunned him for a moment. Xiao Mu glared at Gan Yun and questioned, "You know my true identity, you should know that I'm not actually Zhang Xiu. At that time, I changed my appearance to pose as Zhang Xiu to disrupt your plan and give trouble to three strong beings at the True God Level."

"And you, knowing my true identity, still dare to come here, meet me alone, aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?"

Gan Yun chuckled, "In my eyes, Brother Zhang is always the one who pursued Zhao Rui and Ma Fang with us. As for other matters, I am completely unaware."

"As for whether Brother Zhang will kill me, I believe Brother Zhang, who has fought alongside us, is definitely not ruthless."

"Of course, if Brother Zhang insists on killing me, I accept it."

"Is that so?"

Xiao Mu suddenly smiled lightly, calmly, and waved a hand towards Gan Yun.

Boom!

A group of Golden Light suddenly emerged behind Gan Yun, pounding directly at him.

Pop!

Gan Yun's figure was struck by the Golden Light, disappearing instantly like a bubble.

"Substitute Technique!"

Xiao Mu, seeing this, was momentarily stunned, and dismissed the Yama Hammer that had just blasted at Gan Yun, letting it dissipate and transform back into Emperor's Might, returning to his body.

He gazed at the spot where Gan Yun disappeared, suddenly enlightened.

No wonder Gan Yun had the courage to find him; it turns out he used the Substitute Technique beforehand.

"Sweet talk about facing me, yet still used the Substitute Technique?"

Xiao Mu secretly muttered, contemplating whether to pursue Gan Yun and Bai Rong.

At this moment, the distance between him and Gan Yun, Bai Rong, was relatively close, allowing him to use the Emperor Authority to track their movements.

Once he missed this chance, it would definitely be difficult to pursue them next time.

Should he pursue them?

Xiao Mu thought about it, but in the end, shook his head slowly.

If it weren't for the threat of Chao Xiong, perhaps he would indeed chase after them, pursue Gan Yun and Bai Rong.

But currently, Chao Xiong's threat is too significant that he might find his whereabouts at any time. At this moment, it is not wise to waste time pursuing Gan Yun and Bai Rong.

Moreover, the Lord of Bai's Mansion's treasury treasure had already been obtained, and bringing it back should be enough to complete the final repair of the Blood Cloud Flag.

At this opportunity, failing to quickly repair the Blood Cloud Flag and instead pursuing Gan Yun and Bai Rong would be unwise.

"Forget it, consider yourselves lucky, don't run into me next time."

Xiao Mu glanced towards the north, ultimately abandoning the pursuit notion.

He waved slightly at the ground, and the storage boxes there all rose up, landing in his hands.

Xiao Mu opened a storage box for a look, a hint of amusement flickering in his eyes.

Putting away the storage boxes, he unfolded the Escape Art and headed back toward the Blood Valley.

Once back at Blood Valley, at the edge of the cliff, Xiao Mu sat down, took out the Blood Cloud Flag and the ancient materials given by Gan Yun in return, and began the final repair on the Blood Cloud Flag.

Pop!

The Octagonal Ancient Mirror, acting as the Formation Eye over several treasures, suddenly shattered, and Wang Wenxian's forehead immediately sweated.

"How is it? Using treasures to activate treasures, and combining multiple search treasures, did you find Xiao Mu's traces?"

Chao Xiong, looking displeased, gazed at Wang Wenxian.

"Ashamed!"

Wang Wenxian, filled with unease, softly replied to Chao Xiong, "Sir Chao Envoy, just now that Xiao Mu did suddenly appear towards the northwest, yet quickly disappeared again."

"Disappeared again, can you find him again?"

Chao Xiong's tone was extremely displeased.

"I am incapable!" Wang Wenxian lowered his head in guilt.

"Worthless, truly worthless!" Chao Xiong cursed angrily.

"Respected Envoy Chen, that Xiao Mu, has just returned to Blood Valley not long after leaving it."

In the southwest direction, Huang Luo, holding the All Star Chart, monitored Xiao Mu's movements while reporting to Chen Ming.
