Yang Jing answered while walking, "Mr. Li Mu, he is the Supervisory Envoy of the Tianmen Domain."

Not only in the Eighteen Domains of the Great Tang Ruins but in various places and domains, there are Supervisory Envoys whose responsibility is to patrol and guard the area.

When Xiao Mu first entered the Yin God Realm, Chen Fengshen had consulted with him to ask whether he would like to join the Task Group or supervise an area. Xiao Mu chose to join the Task Group.

That so-called supervising an area refers to the role of the Supervisory Envoy.

The Domain Master is only responsible for the daily affairs within the domain, while protecting the domain's safety is the job of the Supervisory Envoy. Therefore, the strength of the Supervisory Envoy is usually much higher than that of the Domain Master.

Xiao Mu said, "I am aware of this. How strong is this Mr. Li Mu? Who is the major leader behind him?"

Yang Jing responded, "Li Mu's strength is in the later stages of the Yin God Realm. This person is loyal to the Second Leader, Zhou Pudu."

Zhou Pudu?

Late stage of the Yin God Realm?

Xiao Mu's expression subtly changed.

Li Mu's Realm was in the later stages of the Yin God Realm, one level higher than him, but even so, Xiao Mu was not concerned.

With Xiao Mu's strength, ordinary beings of the late Yin God Realm were truly not his opponents.

However, what Xiao Mu cared about was that Li Mu was actually backed by Zhou Pudu, which meant that it was highly unlikely for Li Mu to be close to Task Group One, let alone close to himself.

Xiao Mu said, "The Five Elements Sect's Mutated Beings have infiltrated the Tianmen Domain, with ordinary Mutated Beings being killed. Is Li Mu aware of this?"

Yang Jing nodded, "The Supervisory Envoy Li Mu has known for some time now and even went to the scene in person."

"What did he say?" Xiao Mu continued to inquire.

The invasion of the Tianmen Domain by the Mutated Beings of the Five Elements Sect, resulting in deaths, indicated that Li Mu as Supervisory Envoy could be said to have neglected his duty.

And Xiao Mu, sent by the Great Tang Ruins to investigate, had every reason to question this.

Furthermore, if the investigation results could prove that the invasion by the Five Elements Sect's Mutated Beings was related to Li Mu, Xiao Mu could exercise the authority of the Task Group.

Yang Jing said, "The Supervisory Envoy Li Mu admitted his oversight in surveillance, acknowledging his negligence, and tasked Wang Chu, the Deputy Domain Master, to investigate."

Xiao Mu's mind stirred, pressing, "So Wang Chu and the others were investigating just now?"

Yang Jing said, "From the situation just now, Deputy Domain Master Wang was indeed investigating the Cold Forest by order of the Supervisory Envoy Li Mu. As to whether it was to investigate the cause of the Five Elements Sect's invasion, I do not know."

Xiao Mu let out a thoughtful, "Oh," and did not pursue the matter further. After a moment, he urged Yang Jing, "Let's continue forward!"

"Yes, Respected Envoy Xiao." Yang Jing replied and continued to lead the way, quickly moving forward.

But it wasn't long before Yang Jing suddenly stopped in his tracks.

"What's the matter..."

Xiao Mu looked displeasedly at Yang Jing, his tone one of reprimand, and at the same time turned his gaze towards Yang Jing.

"I... I..."

Yang Jing's complexion was awful, his voice quivering with fear, seemingly having anticipated something, his tone thick with terror, "Mr. Xiao, they... they... the people from the Five Elements Sect have discovered that I was tracking them and are planning to kill me."

Could the Five Elements Sect's people have discovered that I used Yang Jing to track them?

Xiao Mu was slightly startled.

The Spiritual Tracking Technique shouldn't be detectable under normal circumstances, unless the opposition had powerful beings with Divine Spirit Tablet's influence.

To possess the influence of the Divine Spirit Tablet means to be able to commune with spirits.

Divine Spirits oversee the world, possessing innate intuition; you don't even have to be targeted, just mentioned behind your back or cursed, and they might sense it.

This is what's known as a sudden inspiration.

Once targeted by a Divine Spirit, a remarkable premonition arises, and if one is intent on tracking, predicting the future precisely may be too far-fetched, but one can at least deduce some clues.

Whoosh!

As if accompanied by a sound, Yang Jing's entire body seemed to be drenched from head to toe in ink, suddenly turning completely black, engulfed by deep Ill Luck.

At that moment, Yang Jing's skin had nearly turned into charcoal, entirely becoming a 'black person'; within the rich Ill Luck, an extremely intense Death Qi radiated.

Without having to get close, one could smell the scent of death on Yang Jing.

Overhead, the Gray Catastrophe Cloud that existed above everyone's head suddenly turned pitch black, pressing down directly above Yang Jing's crown.

The shadow of the black cloud seemed to preemptively cast over Yang Jing's head, creating a deep dark shadow there, emitting an aura of death.

"Xiao... Xiao..."

Yang Jing's teeth chattered, his fear intensifying swiftly, his body trembling as he turned to flee.

He was shrouded in terror, scared to the extreme.

"Stop!"

Xiao Mu was caught off guard as Yang Jing bolted, quickly creating a distance of several hundred meters between them.

But Xiao Mu, quickly reacting, called out sharply, and with the Wood Escape Technique active, a streak of Green Light spread through the Cold Forest. In the blink of an eye, he caught up to Yang Jing and blocked his way.

Xiao Mu, somewhat irritated in his heart, scolded Yang Jing, "I did not permit you to leave, you are not to go anywhere!"

"But... Mr. Xiao, they... they really are going to kill me..."

Yang Jing's tone was filled with intense fear, severely spooked, "If we don't leave now... it will be too late."

As he spoke, Yang Jing tried to push past Xiao Mu to continue fleeing but ultimately did not dare to do so.

"Nonsense!"

Xiao Mu's face hardened as he chastised again, mixing Dao Method Spiritual Energy in his voice, sending it directly into Yang Jing's body to stabilize his mind, while saying, "With me here, no one can kill you."

"But..."

Yang Jing, his mind stimulated by Xiao Mu's use of Dao Method Spiritual Energy, instantly stabilized significantly, and the fear dissipated somewhat, but he still appeared extremely nervous, anxiously saying, "But, Mr. Xiao, you have no idea about the means they plan to use to kill me."
