Du Kuang and the others shivered upon hearing the news, their faces showing expressions of disbelief.

"Mr. Xiao, has something gone amiss?"

Du Kuang cautiously inquired through telepathy.

After a moment of hesitation, Xiao Mu nodded, "If you want to leave, go right away. Don't alert anyone. After getting out of the Great Array, follow the instructions of the Ghost Princess. She will arrange for you guys to rendezvous with me afterward."

Du Kuang's gaze hardened as he transmitted to Xiao Mu, "Mr. Xiao, please take care of yourself!"

Qin Rui said, "Mr. Xiao, we will wait for you outside of the array."

Liu Gong and others also started transmitting farewells to Xiao Mu, then began moving towards the outskirts of the array, pretending as if nothing had happened.

Walking around the camp of the human mutated beings, Xiao Mu quietly observed if anyone had been parasitized, subtly alerting some familiar faces to leave in the process.

To avoid standing out, he didn't alert too many people.

Having exited the camp for the human mutated beings, he started leisurely strolling towards the outer part of the Great Array as if nothing had happened.

"You really think you can get away?"

The voice of the Four-Eyed Ghost King suddenly rang out from behind, making Xiao Mu stiffen.

At the same time, he felt an intense chill spreading throughout his body, like something was burrowing into him and causing a splitting headache.

Immediately, he lost control over his body and could no longer move. It was as if he had fallen into a dream, his entire body going rigid and completely unresponsive.

The power of the Yin Nether King far exceeded his expectations. Unbelievably, the king had managed to gain control over him without his awareness.

"I must admit, you're quite clever, having discovered my plan. Unfortunately, you still fall short compared to me. Ultimately, you've ended up in my hands."

The voice of the Four-Eyed Ghost King was getting closer, moving from behind Xiao Mu to his front.

Looking at Xiao Mu, there was a cat-playing-with-a-mouse jest in his eyes. His manner had completely changed, like a different person.

He was utterly self-assured and smug during his boasting.

"Yin Nether King?"

Xiao Mu's expression remained calm, showing no signs of panic.

"So you've guessed it's me. The Ghost Princess must have told you, right? Unfortunately, there's nothing that escapes the eyes of this King."

The Four-Eyed Ghost King clicked his tongue in admiration, seemingly both proud and remorseful for Xiao Mu.

What a narcissist!

In just two sentences, Xiao Mu had managed to glean a decent understanding of the Yin Nether King's character.

He asked in a grave voice, "Yin Nether King, I am very curious. What exactly do you want to do? What's your purpose? You've gathered forces to form a temporary alliance, and brought the fourth realm mutated beings here. Don't tell me your true intention is to protect these fourth realm mutated beings."

"Do you think you can fathom this King's thoughts?"

The Four-Eyed Ghost King sneered, showing a smile that looked even more terrible than a crying face.

"If you had agreed to my proposal and led the fourth realm mutated beings to force their way through the gate of the virtual reality, I might have spared you. Unfortunately, you failed to appreciate this King's goodwill."

"I have no choice but to parasitize you, use your identity, and control you to lead the fourth realm mutated beings here to force their way through the gate of the virtual reality."

"Ha! Xiao Mu, it is your honor to be controlled by this King."

Xiao Mu calmly said, "Yin Nether King, you want me to lead these fourth realm mutated beings to forcefully break into the virtual reality? For what purpose?"

"To give them false hope by using my power? To send them to their deaths?"

"Strange, what benefit would their deaths bring to you?"

"By sending these fourth realm mutated beings to their deaths, the only result would be to refine the Xuan Yin Banner. What good would the refinement of Xuan Yin Banner bring to you?"

"Could it be that you're a follower of Ancestor Xuan Yin? Taking orders from Ancestor Xuan Yin!"

"Right, before I came here, you and the Extreme Yin King had led a team that suffered several losses, including the time when Wu Ling unexpectedly attacked King Xuan's camp, killing the fourth realm mutated beings from King Xuan's side. But your plan failed, and you were involved in all of these, right?"

"I'm very curious, are you truly a follower of Ancestor Xuan Yin, determined to successfully refine the Xuan Yin Banner and let him infiltrate?"

"Xiao Mu, you are indeed a very sharp one! However, this King won't tell you. Even if this King doesn't say, you won't be able to guess it out in your lifetime."

"You won't have the chance to ponder all this anymore, because this King is going to start parasitizing you."

A wicked smile spread across the Four-Eyed Ghost King's face, but he didn't answer Xiao Mu's question.

"Since I'm about to be parasitized by you, why not indulge me and satisfy my curiosity? So that I may die in peace."

Xiao Mu asked calmly.

"Your reasoning holds true!"

The Four-Eyed Ghost King nodded, a playful smile on his face, "It's a pity that this King doesn't plan to fulfill your last request."

Having said that, his body suddenly stiffened, not moving an inch.

The Four-Eyed Ghost King seemed to have turned into an empty shell, void of any life or vitality. Then, a black shadow emerged from the top of his head.

As soon as the black shadow was out, it swooped towards Xiao Mu.

Now is the time!

"Yin Nether King, do you really think you can parasitize me? Ghost Servant!"

Xiao Mu shouted suddenly.

The Ghost Servant emerged from the ground, wrapped in the Power of Blessing. It had transformed into a form resembling a judge, holding a judge pen, dressed in an official robe, and donning a black gauze hat.

"You have accumulated Yin Virtue, blessed with good luck!"

The Ghost Servant held the judge pen, rapidly writing towards Xiao Mu.

The Power of Blessing was bestowed upon Xiao Mu, enveloping him in a layer of Golden Light. He was blessed with good luck.

The control of the Yin Nether King over Xiao Mu began to waver, and Xiao Mu's body started to regain its freedom.
