"Stop... stop it!"

The burly man was drenched in cold sweat, barely able to speak under the great pressure Xiao Mu was exerting on him.

"If I wanted to kill you, it would be as easy as lifting my hand. This is just a small lesson for you, so you might learn your lesson."

Xiao Mu did not intend to kill him, especially not here, in a trading centre protected by the Offensive and Defensive Alliance of all races in the human world.

He released his momentum and waved his hand casually.

A gust of wild wind swept forth, and the burly man was blown away on the spot.

The next moment, he fell to the ground, blood spewing from his mouth.

This was Xiao Mu showing mercy, otherwise, he could easily kill this man, who was in the Late Bone Forger Realm, with a wave of his hand.

The gap between the Third Realm and the Fourth Realm was truly vast.

The burly man, obviously unaware that Xiao Mu had been merciful, picked himself up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, pointed at Xiao Mu angrily, and said spitefully:

"You dare to make a move in the trading center, straightforwardly violating the rules of the trading center, you're as good as dead!"

What he said was not wrong. There were such rules in the trading centre, but they were intended only for mutants below the Fourth Realm. Those in the Fourth Realm were not restricted.

Xiao Mu remained indifferent, unconcerned. "Oh, really?"

Seeing this, the burly man could not help but sneer.

This man was too arrogant, he didn't even take the rules of the trading centre seriously.

"Security, security!"

The burly man shouted loudly.

Within a moment, a man and a woman appeared, both powerful beings in the Late Third Realm.

"What happened?"

The female mutant was solemn.

"Hurry! Arrest him! This man attacked me openly and injured me."

The burly man pointed angrily at Xiao Mu.

"Please wait, we need to confirm this."

The female mutant suddenly pulled out a delicate cellphone and started checking the surveillance video.

After a moment, she confirmed the burly man's accusation through the video, gave a nod to the male mutant, both of them then approached Xiao Mu, and said solemnly, "Sir, you have violated the rules of the trading centre, attacking others. Please come with us."

"Oh, really?"

Xiao Mu didn't say much, he just released his momentum towards these two security personnel.

In an instant, both security personnel's faces changed, looking at Xiao Mu in shock, "you... you are..."

Xiao Mu nodded, indicating that their guess was correct.

"Sir, we're sorry, we were rash, please forgive us!"

The female mutant bowed her head in apology to Xiao Mu, her expression sincere.

"You...why aren't you arresting him?"

The burly man was in a panic, shouting at the female mutant.

The female mutant turned around and replied simply, "This gentleman is not bound by this rule."

"Not bound, why?"

The burly man was confused, shouting out loud, showing a look of resentment.

The female mutant turned to look at Xiao Mu, sensing that Xiao Mu had no intention of revealing his true strength, she didn't dare to disclose it either.

And so she said, "It's not necessary for me to explain this to you."

"No need to explain to me? You are unfair, I'm going to complain about you."

The burly man, fuming with anger, pointed at the female mutant.

If you want to lodge a complaint, feel free to do so. Go straight from here, count three windows from the left to the right at the glass, and you can do it there."

The female mutant was completely unfazed, nonchalantly providing detailed instructions for filing a complaint.

"Wait!"

At this moment, Xiao Mu spoke up.

"Sir, do you have any other instructions?"

The female mutant hurriedly turned around to face Xiao Mu again, her attitude extremely respectful.

"This man was trying to trick me with his counterfeit elixir and take my treasure. If he doesn't get a little lesson, I'm afraid he'll never change. I hope you can detain him for a few days."

Xiao Mu pointed at the burly man.

He didn't intend to do anything to the burly man, but his incessant complaining made Xiao Mu decide to teach him another lesson.

"As you wish, Sir!"

The female mutant remained extremely respectful, bowed to Xiao Mu, and then walked towards the burly man with the male mutant.

"Sir, please come with us. That esteemed gentleman claimed you have cheated him with counterfeit elixir to take his treasure. Such behavior is absolutely not allowed in the trading centre. If you did it, you must be punished."

"You are not fair, why are you treating me like this?"

The burly man clenched his fists in anger, ready to attack the two security personnel.

"Are you going to resist us?"

The female mutant's face darkened.

Seeing the expression on the female mutant's face, the burly man immediately deflated.

This was a trading centre, backed by the Offensive and Defensive Alliance of all races of the human world. Making a move here was simply looking for death.

"You're not fair, I'm going to complain about you."

The burly man was shouting, but did not dare to resist. He allowed the two security guards to arrest him and take him away directly.

Seeing the burly man being taken away, the crowd was in an uproar.

They couldn't understand how Xiao Mu was not only exempt from the rules of the trading centre but was also able to command the security personnel of the trading centre.

"Amazing!"

"That's incredible! How was he able to control the security officers of the trading centre? How did he do it?"

...

Many people were whispering, guessing about Xiao Mu's identity, and their eyes showed a sense of awe and admiration when they looked at him.

At this moment, a flash of azure traversed their sight and a man in his thirties, dressed in a black suit, suddenly appeared before them.

The man's arrival was sudden, apart from Xiao Mu, no one else could make out how he had appeared.

The man was looking at Xiao Mu with a smile on his face, "Friend, with your strength, why lower yourself to such mundane squabbles?"

Xiao Mu glanced at the man, his pupils shrinking slightly.

This man, who had appeared out of nowhere, was also a powerful being in the Fourth Realm, just like him.

"I haven't seen you around, friend, it seems you haven't registered yet."

Noting Xiao Mu's expression, the man smiled again.

"Are you... part of the Alliance?"

Xiao Mu made a guess, though not entirely sure.

The man possessed a certain aura that was greatly different from that of humans.

It seemed this man was a variant who had attained Dao, much like Qing Yan or Shi Gui Shangren.

As for humans, Xiao Mu did not believe anyone else could catch up with his cultivation speed.

But he couldn't discern what the man was before his attainment of Dao, from the momentum he was releasing.

The man nodded slightly, then glanced at the goods on Xiao Mu's stall, "If you had registered, you'd know, you really have no need to come to a place like this."

"The trading center is merely a place for low-level mutants."

"So, friend, please come with me. Your items will be sold by professionals."

"Oh!" Xiao Mu looked at the Fourth Realm man incredulously.

"With your strength, friend, do you think I can deceive you?"

The man smiled and asked.

"Alright then."

Xiao Mu suddenly felt he was overthinking, and as the man suggested, he packed up his stall.

"Please follow me, friend."

The man took the lead, leading Xiao Mu towards the office at the back of the trading centre.
