"Hmm... I understand, go ahead..."

Kong Xi heard Mu Jinyu's words, and his heart trembled, but he still sighed helplessly.

He knew that since Mu Jinyu had already acted against the hundreds of people present, and wasn't trying to kill them but control them and wash away their memories to brainwash them.

He certainly wouldn't spare himself.

After all, once this matter is leaked, the Creation Divine Liquid and the deaths of Ji Changfei and others would be nothing, but if the Earth Emperor's Tome information is leaked, Mu Jinyu would have no way to survive.

If it were him, he would probably make the same decision.

After all, he had no reason to earn Mu Jinyu's trust.

Just now, when Mu Jinyu was surrounded by others trying to kill him, if he had come forward to help fight alongside him, then perhaps, seeing this gesture, Mu Jinyu might have chosen to take a gamble and not erase his memory, trusting that he wouldn't leak the secret.

But since he didn't make that choice, there's really nothing to say.

They can only be considered acquaintances with a good relationship.

Mu Jinyu had no reason to take such a huge risk and spare him.

So Kong Xi had no thoughts of resisting.

"Splash, splash, splash..."

Seeing this, Mu Jinyu, although feeling a bit reluctant, still for the sake of the bigger picture, activated the River of Oblivion's Water, washing over Kong Xi's body.

"Uh..."

Kong Xi, unlike the others, did not resist, and his eyes quickly became dazed, lost in a haze, resembling a walking corpse.

Thus, within the Ghost City domain activated by the Earth Emperor's Tome, besides Mu Jinyu, there was no longer anyone with a clear consciousness.

"Why? Why must you force me?"

Mu Jinyu slowly scanned with his eyes towards Ji Changkong, Jiang Taiping, and others who had previously been high and mighty, forcing him to hand over the Creation Divine Liquid, shaking his head and sighing.

Actually, taking out the Earth Emperor's Tome to brainwash them posed a great risk, if someone saw it or used some means to know, he would be very dangerous.

So, unless forced between killing them all or brainwashing them, Mu Jinyu truly didn't want to take out the Earth Emperor's Tome.

Now that both sides have reached this point, they have their lives threatened, and he faces tremendous risk, it really was a bad choice.

"Better hurry and brainwash them!"

Mu Jinyu didn't want to waste time, then with a thought, Meng Po appeared from the Homeward-Viewing Platform, subsequently giving them soup to brainwash them.

Mu Jinyu didn't dare mess up the brainwashing randomly, turning them into idiots, but consciously deleted some memories and added some they'd never experienced.

For instance, he directly deleted their memories of him killing Ji Changfei, Ji Xiao, and others, changing it to them not knowing where they died.

As well as the scene where he monopolized all the Creation Divine Liquid, leading the crowd to attack him was also erased.

It was altered to them dividing the Creation Divine Liquid among more than a hundred people, and their bodies were modified so that even if they reached the Creation Realm, the Exotic Blood within wouldn't rampage.

Yes, this was where Mu Jinyu mentioned they had a threat to their lives.

After being brainwashed this way, they truly believed they had refined the Creation Divine Liquid, thinking their paths had closed, and once they cultivated recklessly, they would eventually die from the rampage of Exotic Blood.

Humph, they all attacked him, how could he possibly just brainwash them and let them off?

Certainly, they must pay the price!

And this slow death was the price for daring to attack him!

Mu Jinyu coldly laughed, beginning to subtract and add memories for everyone except Kong Xi.

As for Kong Xi, Mu Jinyu altered his memories to just being a step too late, with the Creation Divine Liquid in the Life and Death Creation Pool already divided by others.

In this way, he was also free from the threat to his life.

After all, although he didn't help him, he also never intended to attack him from beginning to end, so Mu Jinyu also had no reason to harm him.

"All done!"

After subtracting and adding memories for everyone, Mu Jinyu put away the Earth Emperor's Tome.

In no time, the dense ghost mist enveloping this domain vanished.

Then, Mu Jinyu began cleaning the nearby battle traces, leaving only some signs of fighting, letting people know they had indeed gone through a battle to earn the qualification to soak in the pool.

Next, Mu Jinyu moved Kong Xi and some others away from here, making them think they never actually came to the Life and Death Creation Pool.

When everything was arranged, Mu Jinyu had already moved away from the location of the Life and Death Creation Pool, then snapped his fingers.

"Snap!"

Though this finger snap didn't resonate throughout the Tiangan Secret Realm, Ji Changkong, Jiang Taiping, Kong Xi, and others all shuddered at this moment, awakening from their coma.

"Ugh..."

"Feels great, is this what a modified constitution feels like? Once I leave the Secret Realm, I can confidently break through to the Life and Death Realm?"

Ji Changkong and Jiang Taiping, upon awakening, indeed forgot everything that happened earlier, thinking they had truly soaked in the Creation Divine Liquid, making their constitution stronger and more compatible with their Foreign Race Bloodline.

"Hmm? Why hasn't Changfei come over yet?"

"And Ji Xiao is also missing!"

Ji Changkong then noticed that among the Ji Clan members present, Ji Changfei and Ji Xiao, along with several others with potential were missing, prompting him to silently sigh, feeling that the Ji Imperial Clan suffered a bit of a loss this time!

Jiang Taiping and Jiang Taiyi then felt a bit strange, always feeling something wasn't quite right, but they couldn't figure out exactly what was wrong.

Ultimately unable to understand, they decided not to overthink it.

"Whoosh, whoosh!!"

Soon, Kong Xi and the dozens of people Mu Jinyu had tossed nearby hurriedly ran to the vicinity of the Life and Death Creation Pool.

"It's gone!"

"A step too late!"

"Oh heavens, why are things this way!"

"I'm so unwilling!"

These people noticed Ji Changkong and others gradually dispersed, and the vast Life and Death Creation Pool was now dry, prompting them to cry out in anguish and regret.

As for Kong Xi, he initially felt hard to accept, but soon, he didn't know why, felt less upset, and even a bit relieved.

He didn't understand why he felt relieved, perhaps was there a problem with the Creation Divine Liquid this time?

He speculated whether his sixth sense was at fault.

Or perhaps it was self-comfort.

But regardless, the fact was that the Creation Divine Liquid was gone, no matter if he felt relieved or unwilling, it was meaningless.

"Disperse, let's look around for Life and Death Law Fragments nearby, we can't afford to lose too much this trip..."

Kong Xi shook his head, then advised the other Dongyue Mansion students.

"Okay."

They reluctantly accepted Kong Xi's invitation, then left.

...

Meanwhile, outside the Tiangan Secret Realm.

On the outskirts of Duanchang Gorge.

The various royal clan elders were furious to the point of exploding.

The most enraged, undoubtedly, was the Ji Clan.

After all, although Ji Xiao was a promising talent, despite dying being unfortunate, it was still acceptable.

But Ji Changfei possessed innate extraordinary talent, given more cultivation, he would become another Ji Changkong, yet he too died within the Tiangan Secret Realm.

This made him seethe with anger.

Speculating who exactly killed them!
