Lu Wuming, of course, did not pay much attention.
He didn't give Liu Buli any chance to argue with him further, and directly lifted his leg to walk into the room.
In any case, he was very clear that from a linguistic perspective, he would never be able to win against Liu Buli.
The other party had always been so eloquent, while he was just a simpleton. So, instead of arguing with the other party, it was more practical to just act.
He didn't know what dangers were in that room, but he at least knew that no matter what kind of existence it was, he didn't want Liu Buli to take the risk.
Although he also understood that if they were to go all out, Liu Buli was not much weaker than him. But just as the other party liked to protect him unconditionally, in his heart, Liu Buli also stood in the position of needing protection, and this would not change.
But Lu Wuming did not expect that before he could even enter the room, he was grabbed by the collar and pulled out by Liu Buli.
Their positions were inexplicably swapped. Liu Buli instructed, "Keep an eye on those two," and then directly entered the room.
His speed was incredibly fast.
Lu Wuming watched with his own eyes as his master stepped into the room, then stood still as if he had lost consciousness, motionless.
He called out twice.
Liu Buli gave him no response.
Lu Wuming began to panic.
He wanted to go in and see what was happening, but he remembered Liu Buli's words before he entered the door—
He had asked him to help watch the unconscious Shen Muzhi and that useless You Siqi.
After all, they had no way of knowing if there would be other monsters in this secret realm. If he also followed into the door and lost consciousness, and if a monster were to appear, they would surely be wiped out.
To prevent such a thing from happening, only one of them could go in.
Lu Wuming understood this logic.
So, he was anxious and angry, but ultimately helpless. He could only silently pray in his heart, hoping that he would recover quickly and not make him worry too much.
...
In fact, the moment he felt the dizziness upon entering the door, Liu Buli knew he had been hit.
However, due to his extensive knowledge of the cultivation world, even before he could see the illusion before him, Liu Buli knew what he was about to face.
His expression flickered, and the scene before him changed.
It transformed into his courtyard in the Pill Sect, and under the large tree on the side of the courtyard, by the stone table, sat a person who looked exactly like him.
Sensing Liu Buli's arrival, the man looked up at him. Their eyes met, and the man shook his head with a hint of boredom, saying, "You're not surprised at all. Did you already guess I'd be waiting for you here?"
"Not exactly," Liu Buli shook his head, then put on his usual smile and said, "I just guessed I'd see you. I didn't know the specific meeting place. But judging by the current situation, you still quite like this courtyard?"
The man nodded generously and said, "After all, this is my courtyard. Of course, I like it here."
"You're mistaken," Liu Buli shook his head. The way he narrowed his eyes and smiled was very much like a fox plotting something mischievous.
Maintaining that expression, he looked into the man's eyes and retorted word by word, "This is my courtyard now, and you are the uninvited guest. If you understand, then get out quickly. After all, in this illusion, neither of us can attack the other, so let's not waste time."
Hearing him say this, the man raised an eyebrow.
After another moment of staring, he said, "Kid, it seems you know quite a lot about this world."
Liu Buli nodded, "Because I have a very capable person by my side. Whatever he says is basically correct. He said you can't attack me here, so I'll definitely be safe. I still trust him."
Seeing his determined look, the man's expression turned unpleasant. After hesitating for a while, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Kid, you don't think that just because you've been occupying this body, I can't take back what's mine, do you? I'm telling you, I am the owner of this body. It has belonged to me from the beginning. I don't know what method you used to possess it, but since you succeeded, I can succeed too."
Liu Buli seemed to not take his threat seriously at all. He even impolitely raised his hand and picked at his ear. Rolling his eyes, he asked, "Have you finished saying all your boring words? If so, let me leave here. If my consciousness cannot recover, my body will remain in that room. No one can enter there, and no one can save me. If my consciousness is not present, I cannot use spiritual energy to maintain my body. So, that body will die soon. If you want this outcome, we can continue to waste time here, and I don't mind."
This was clearly a threat.
But the problem was, the man happened to be afraid of his threat.
Their eyes met again. On the man's face, which was clearly beautiful, was now filled with resentment and malice.
Looking at his expression, Liu Buli mused inwardly, human emotions are truly a magical thing.
They can not only affect your appearance but also the feeling you give off and your own attractiveness.
Just like now, looking at the man, despite his beautiful features, at this moment, he was so ugly that he couldn't arouse any interest.
Contrast creates harm.
Liu Buli was incredibly glad that he had never shown such an expression; it was too ugly.
While he was contemplating these thoughts, the surrounding scenery had already begun to blur. Liu Buli knew that the man had given up on their verbal sparring and intended to let him leave this illusory space.
During this process, the two of them maintained eye contact.
Liu Buli himself didn't have many thoughts. In fact, every time he saw this man, he found it quite magical.
However, the other party probably didn't have the same thoughts as him.
Because as he was about to regain consciousness, he heard the man's voice again.
He said, "Kid, you wait. I am very strong now, and I have found a way to deal with you. When we meet next time, as long as I can use cultivation techniques, it will be your death. I will beat you until your soul is scattered, so you can never do this kind of usurpation again."
