I am grinding experience in another world

```

"Monster! I knew at a glance you were not human!"

"Five Dragons Unification!"

Chen Mu bellowed, and a surge of black mist emerged.

With a vigorous wave of his hand, streams of black smoke from the Five Dragons Qi burst forth like floodwaters breaking through a dam, violently charging towards the other side.

Hiss!

As if corroded by strong acid, Li Wuyou’s body immediately began to wither, turn black, shrink, and rot.

In the blink of an eye, half of his body carbonized into wisps of black smoke, drifting backwards, dispersed by the Five Dragons Qi.

Yet, the half-destroyed face of the other person still wore a smile, eyes curving, watching Chen Mu with a strange, fox-like grin—eerie and false.

Hum!

The fire in the pit suddenly shrank, and the light dimmed under the inclined cliff. Li Wuyou’s body collapsed with a thunderous sound, turning into a pile of black ash on the ground, scattered by the cold wind.

Chen Mu let out a sigh of relief and quickly retracted the Five Dragons Qi, wrapping it around himself.

The moment he heard footsteps, the Truthful Listening Technique was instinctively cast.

He then discovered that, although Li Wuyou appeared ordinary on the surface, the life rhythm in his body was extremely chaotic, as if he was not one person, but a combined entity of numerous creatures.

He immediately sensed something was amiss with this man, so he gave him a gourd of River of Oblivion Water to test.

"Indeed..." Chen Mu’s face turned cold.

Thinking of the chaotic Qi of the other person, a chill ran down his spine. He immediately used the Truthful Listening Technique to scan a twenty-mile radius repeatedly to make sure there were no strange Qi nearby before he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Wuyou was far inferior to those massive Strange Demons, but the chaotic aura he emitted made Chen Mu quite wary.

When the other’s gaze fell on him, it felt as if countless people were watching him at the same time. The smile on the face was full of good humor, but it was full of malice inside, which truly made his heart tremble.

"I can’t stay here. Who knows if more bizarre things like this will appear?"

Thinking this, Chen Mu considered using the Escape Skill to leave.

The next moment, with a light snapping sound, the faint sound of footsteps suddenly appeared.

Following that, a familiar, gentle voice reached his ears: "I am Li Wuyou. Having lost my way in the wilderness, I was attracted by the fire here. I apologize for the intrusion and hope for your understanding."

Chen Mu’s eyes bulged, and he felt a chill crawl up his scalp.

His neck turned stiffly, and then he saw at the edge of the fire to his left, Li Wuyou, dressed in a white scholarly outfit, reappeared unscathed.

He smiled with his eyes curving, showing a sincere yet insincere smile, and bowed to Chen Mu politely, as if he were a very well-mannered scholar.

That feeling of being malevolently watched by countless people surfaced once again.

Chen Mu’s heart suddenly grew cold.

He had not turned off the Truthful Listening Technique, but he had no idea how the other person had appeared. Only when he heard the footsteps did that chaotic aura reach his ears.

Gurgle...

A rumbling came from the stomach, and Li Wuyou looked at Chen Mu with a smile.

"I have been so hungry for so long. May I borrow your heart and liver to satisfy my hunger?"

Upon hearing these words, Chen Mu’s pupils shrank to pinpoints.

The next moment.

Boom!

The air exploded.

Li Wuyou’s figure abruptly appeared in front of Chen Mu, his right hand formed into a knife-like shape, thrusting directly at Chen Mu’s throat.

Whoosh!

Chen Mu transformed into a Gentle Breeze and vanished from the spot. In an instant, he reappeared twenty meters away, outside the cliff.

But no sooner had he regained his senses than the darkness returned, and Li Wuyou’s crescent-like, slitty eyes reappeared before him.

Red Qi coiled around the other’s right hand as it reached into the gap between the ribs on his left chest, as though about to directly scoop out Chen Mu’s heart.

Chen Mu was alarmed. The Five Dragons Qi was instinctively cast, and an invisible force emerged close to him, colliding with Li Wuyou’s fingertips.

Clang!

As if a giant hammer had struck a bronze bell, a fierce wave of Qi burst from Chen Mu’s chest.

Chen Mu only felt a sharp pain in his chest as if he had been hit by a sprinting train, and his body involuntarily flew into the sky. Like a ragdoll out of control, his limbs flailed wildly as he tumbled and spun in the air.

In the flash of electricity and fire, Chen Mu caught a glimpse in the corner of his eyes; somehow, Li Wuyou had already taken the position of his landing spot.

At that moment, the other was looking up with that strange and false smile plastered on his face, staring intently at Chen Mu.

It was as if he were an evil hound waiting for the roasted meat to fall.

Chen Mu’s heart went cold, and amidst the split-second of lightning and fire, he activated the Yin Spirit Divine Power; a grey Yin Wind surged forth.

Whoosh!

Under a massive pulling force, Chen Mu, like a runaway rocket, zipped haphazardly up, down, left, and right. Just when he seemed to plunge headlong into the ground, he finally regained control of himself, and his body flipped over, shooting straight up into the sky.

As he rose, Chen Mu looked back.

```

But he found that Li Wuyou, with his strange demeanor, was still standing where he was, staring at Chen Mu with that fox-like, eerie smile on his face.

Chen Mu instantly felt the hairs on his neck stand on end as if he was alone in the deep mountains, being targeted by a terrifying beast.

What in the world is this thing?!

How could it be so eerie and tenacious?!

Without a second thought, he took a sharp turn and exerted his Yin Wind Escape with all his might. Accompanied by booming sounds of air exploding, he flew away towards the horizon like a trail of smoke.

The ambition he once had to cut through the nest of strange demons had long dissipated; now, all he wanted was to get as far away from Li Wuyou as possible.

...

In Feng’an City, at the backyard of Sihappiness Teahouse.

Liu Tong glared angrily at Hu Mang.

"I’m going to ask you one more time, are you sure you placed the Longevity Wine as instructed?"

Hu Mang looked disdainfully at Liu Tong: "You could always leave the city with me."

"As an official, you’ve probably never seen a strange demon, right? How about it, want to come with us and see for yourself?"

The expression on Liu Tong’s face suddenly darkened.

Of course, he didn’t dare to confront strange demons head-on. Those monsters with muddled consciousness didn’t recognize him as an inspector. If he didn’t run fast enough, he would undoubtedly be devoured.

During these two months, seventy percent of the spies assigned the same task had died. Although this rash young man was insubordinate, nearly half of the Longevity Wine had been spread by his subordinates.

Moreover, according to the Five Dragons Qi changes displayed on the Round Light Mirror, the seals on the wine pots he was carrying were indeed broken; he had completed the task.

At most, he was being sly, using some other tricks.

His questioning was merely a habitual way of finding fault with the guy.

"Go and get another hundred pots of Longevity Wine and then get lost!" Liu Tong waved his hand, dismissing him.

Hu Mang snorted coldly, casually clasped his fist in a salute, and turned to leave.

Liu Tong’s expression grew even more unsightly.

...

The next day, in the wilderness outside the city.

Hu Mang stood on a hillside, scanning the area to make sure no one was around, and then transformed into a wisp of black smoke, descending into the forest below.

Waiting there for a long time was a middle-aged man from the Grindstone Department with a long beard.

After a brief conversation, Hu Mang took the bag of Qi nourishment handed over by the man and immediately drifted away like a gust of yin wind.

The bearded middle-aged didn’t linger either; he twisted his body and suddenly vanished from the spot.

After a while, Liu Tong appeared in the forest.

"I knew there was something fishy!" Liu Tong sneered contemptuously.

"I remember that Hu Mang had previously messed up a mission from the Grindstone Department, so he was assigned to my command as a dead soldier."

"I had thought he didn’t get along with the Grindstone Department, but it turns out there was collusion in the dark."

"The Secret Spy Department and the Grindstone Department are both meddling? There must be a major conspiracy involved!" Liu Tong’s face was stern.

"No wonder there have been fewer and fewer strange demons lately. It seems that the Longevity Wine recently spread out has likely been dealt with using a special method by the other side, hidden away so it wouldn’t attract more strange demons."

He suddenly thought of the dead soldiers who had died while spreading the bait.

Perhaps they didn’t die at the hands of strange demons but were secretly silenced by someone.

"Were these people quietly turned by Feng’an City, or is someone within Qingyang City a traitor, working as an inside agent for Feng’an City?"

"If I can figure out the reason and expose the mastermind behind this…"

"Ha ha, promotion and wealth are just around the corner!" Liu Tong suddenly got excited.

He was just about to cast a secret technique to continue tracking Hu Mang when he looked up and realized that, at some unknown time, a figure in white had suddenly appeared in front of him.

The person’s eyes were squinted into an arc, much like a fox.

With a gentle smile full of sincerity, the figure stared intently at Liu Tong.

"I am Li Wuyou. I apologize for startling you, sir."

"It’s just that I suffer from an unbearable hunger. May I borrow your liver to sate it?"

A scholar with a fox-face eating livers?

King Wuyou!

A rumor from the streets suddenly surfaced in his mind, sending a chill down Liu Tong’s spine!

He had just thought of escaping using a spell when that fox-like smiling face was already directly in front of him.

Then he watched, wide-eyed, as the other’s mouth grew wider and wider, revealing rows upon rows of long, sharp teeth reflecting in the surface of his pupils.

Accompanied by a short, sharp scream.

The forest abruptly fell silent.

Only the sound of flesh and bone being chewed and swallowed faintly lingered.
