1316. Betrayal

At this time, everyone was already in an inn.

Li Ming thanked him with lingering fear.

"Okay, go back and come back to this inn tomorrow. You did a good job taking us around today and performed very well. Let's continue tomorrow." Li Mu casually threw another mid-grade fairy crystal to Li Ming.

"Ah, thank you sir, I will definitely come as soon as possible tomorrow."

Li Ming was overjoyed, took the fairy crystal, thanked him repeatedly, and turned to leave.

The courtyard fell silent.

Li Mu raised his hand and placed several layers of restrictions to block outside visits.

"Do you know why you are not allowed to take action?" Li Mu looked at Bi Luo.

Bi Luo said: "My lord is worried that my aura will expose my whereabouts, causing the Demon Suppression Pavilion to trace us."

Li Mu shook his head and said: "No, it's because you are too weak and you were too anxious to take down the Yu Tianren, wasting time."

blue sky:"……"

He has been imprisoned in the sky prison for too long and has endured all kinds of torture and torture. His body is weak and he has not yet returned to his peak cultivation level. Therefore, what Li Mu said is not unreasonable.

But this sounds like it really hurts your self-esteem.

Several other war slaves couldn't help but laugh.

In particular, several demon cultivators and war slaves had a great change in their view of Li Mu at this time.

Even though he was the head of the Great Immortal Court Palace, he was willing to take action for the demon cultivator Princess Qinglian. He killed Yu Tianzhen and dozens of masters of the Demon Suppression Pavilion on the spot. No matter what the purpose was, he won them over. respect and recognition.

If before they obeyed Li Mu only because of the slave contract and their life and death depended on Li Mu's thoughts, now they have more or less sensory recognition of Li Mu.

[Eternal Night Rakshasa] is the only woman among the seven war slaves. She is a mature beauty, as cold as ice and as beautiful as a peach and plum. At this time, she also has the slightest recognition of Li Mu.

Only Tun Tiantongzi lowered his head, did not speak, and did not know what he was thinking.

"Okay, let's go." Li Mu waved his hand.

"Ah?" Bi Luo was startled.

Li Mu said: "Haha, don't tell me that you don't want to see your wife and daughter at all. Go ahead. I'll give you one night to see your wife and daughter."

Bi Luo's body shook, and she was greatly surprised.

After becoming war slaves, their life and death are in the hands of Li Mu. They should not think about freedom at all. Moreover, the Great Immortal Court's control over war slaves is extremely strict and cruel. They are equivalent to slaves and must not make demands to their masters.

Bi Luo has already violated the rules once today.

If you do it again, you will be seeking death.

This is why Bi Luo didn't take the initiative to visit his wife and daughter before.

But he didn't expect that Li Mu would take the initiative.

"Thank you sir."

Bi Luo was grateful but didn't say much else. She bowed and turned to leave.

Li Mu said nothing more, turned around and returned to his room, set up several more layers of restrictions, used the [Green Soul Purgatory Lamp], and began to interrogate Yu Tianren's soul.

Outside the room, the six war slaves were on guard and guarding the law with all their strength.

Li Mu is not worried about Bi Luo or other war slaves leaking what happened today, because their life and death are in Li Mu's hands. If there is any change, he will be aware of it immediately, and he can cause them pain with just a thought. And die.

To a certain extent, war slaves are just intelligent puppets.

Everything is controlled by him.

Wow!

Cyan lights flow.

Yu Tianren had been tortured for half an hour in the wick. He could not survive or die. Li Mu slightly

With a few more tricks, Yu Tianzhen will completely surrender and answer all questions.

Li Mu compared his confession with the original confession of the leader of Juetian. They were basically similar, so he determined that it should be true. Yu Tianren did not use any tricks.

After obtaining most of the desired results, Li Mu did not destroy Yu Tianren's soul, but temporarily imprisoned him in the [Green Soul Purgatory Lamp].

At night.

In Yaoguang City, the atmosphere became even more tense.

In the Demon Suppression Mansion in the center of the city, the city lord Liu Dongyuan summoned all the heavenly masters in the city to discuss the death of Yu Tianren and how to find the murderer.

Yu Tianren is a well-known strong man in the Demon Suppressing Pavilion. He has a relationship with Master Dutian and Master Juetian who died a few days ago. However, this person is young, so he has not yet reached the status of a leader. But among the elders in the religion, they are the absolute real power faction and have great influence in the Demon Suppression Pavilion.

His death was extraordinary.

Once the news reaches the gate of Demon Suppression Pavilion in Demon Prison Mountain, Liu Dongyuan doesn't even dare to imagine what kind of sensation and anger it will cause.

For the current plan, the only way to appease the anger of Juetian Cult Leader is to catch the murderer quickly.

However, three hours have passed since the incident happened, and no news has come yet. There is no trace of Princess Qinglian and her party who were taken away. This makes Liu Dongyuan even more worried. irritable.

"Sir, what happened today is not simple. There were no useful clues left at the scene. The only thing that is certain is that Yu Tianren was killed quickly by the enemy and had little power to resist. The person who took action was so powerful. , The ruthlessness of his methods is simply terrifying, I am afraid he is someone above the Immortal Lord."

Yehuo Tianshi Wushang Dao.

Lotus Fire Heavenly Master Zhu Sha also nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, the person who took action is terrifying, but what is puzzling is when did such a terrifying demon cultivator appear in Tianxing Mansion, and since there is such a character among demon cultivators , then why didn't you take action earlier, and why did you let the bloodline of the demon ancestor like Princess Qinglian fall into the hands of Yu Tianren... I'm afraid that the person who took action had only recently come to Tianxing Mansion, or had just come out recently. Guan’s old monster.”

When Liu Dongyang heard this, he suddenly brightened up and said, "It's possible."

Lianhuo Tianshi Zhusha said: "Moreover, Yaoguang City is now completely closed. These evil cultivators must not have time to escape. They have nowhere to hide. They must be incarnate and hidden somewhere in the city, covering their identities. We should Immediately expand the scope of the search. Don't limit it to fourth- and third-class subordinates. Even second-class and even first-class subordinates should also be searched. At the same time, a heavy reward is offered for any suspicious clues. I believe there will be some Clues appear.”

Liu Dongyuan said: "Yes, what the Heavenly Master said makes sense, so just do it."

A series of orders were issued.

The entire Yaoguang City was activated.

Countless soldiers from the Tianshi camp, disciples from the Demon Suppression Pavilion, and the Immortal garrison in the city began to search every street and every household. Even the residences of first-class immortals and some powerful people were not released. Pass.

At the same time, Liu Dongyuan and others also began to mobilize experts and began to prepare for the possible emergence of a powerful demon cultivator above the Immortal Lord.

A piece of Xiandao notices were plastered all over the streets and alleys of Yaoguang City.

Among the many bounty columns, brilliance flickered, all previous information was erased, and what appeared with the most urgent and dangerous luster was the bounty order for the search for the demon cultivator and all suspicious characters in the city.

"Suspicious person? What kind of person is considered suspicious?"

Li Ming, who had made a lot of money today, stood in front of the notice board in front of the restaurant, reading the reward notice with a drunken breath and muttering in his mouth.

He took a big job today and earned a lot of money. After work, he couldn't wait to go to the restaurant, bought several jars of Fiery Brew, and drank it to his heart's content.

The hot Jiujin immortal power blended into his limbs and bones, suppressing the cold poisonous injury in his body that he had suffered more than ten years ago.

Looking down, he found that the description of the 'suspicious person' in the reward order was quite detailed.

"Those who are coming to Yaoguang City for the first time, those whose identities are unknown, those whose origins are mysterious, those who spend a lot of money, those who have been to the slave market in Nancheng District today...huh?"

When Li Ming read this, his heart suddenly moved.

He suddenly realized that the distinguished guest he was serving today seemed to... somewhat... fit the description of the 'suspicious person' on the reward notice?

Moreover, this distinguished guest was indeed accompanied by several demon cultivators, who seemed to be slaves, but the demonic energy on their bodies was very obvious, Li Ming could be sure of this.

At the bottom of the reward notice, the amount of the reward is written.

"Those who provide detailed clues will be rewarded with one hundred immortal crystals, and those who assist in the arrest will be rewarded with five hundred immortal crystals. If the real culprit is found in the slave market and massacred, ten thousand immortal crystals will be directly injured... God, this is a huge fortune, the City Lord's Mansion This time, we really spent a lot of money.”

After reading it, Li Ming couldn't help but feel very moved.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the distinguished guest he entertained today had a suspicious identity.

Could he really be the murderer of the slave market massacre?

Even if it's not, that's okay.

Because the reward order says that as long as you provide clues, no matter whether they are right or wrong, you will get the Immortal Crystal.

Li Ming hesitated briefly and walked directly towards the nearest Tianshi Mansion.

…

…

It's late at night.

Bi Luo hasn't come back yet.

Li Mu was in the inn, closing his eyes and resting his mind, constantly comprehending the secret of time.

He is now taking the path of dual cultivation of the two principles of fire and time. The comprehension and improvement of the fire path require a certain environment and various rare flames. The conditions are relatively harsh, but the comprehension of time lies in The cultivation and understanding of the state of mind, after all, time flows around us all the time.

Moreover, the secret of time is extremely rare, so it is even more powerful.

Every time Li Mu faced an enemy, he only needed one [Time Phase] dive to finish off his opponent. Except for that time when he was in danger in the Cloud Swallowing Beast's lair in the Siming Mountains, he never even used [Time Restoration] at other times.

Therefore, during this period of time, Li Mu adjusted his major to the time series.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes.

It could be felt that from all directions, a large number of powerful immortals were surrounding them in the direction of the inn. Although they were careful, they could not hide from Li Mu's perception.

what happened?

Li Mu was quite surprised.

Could it be that what happened in the slave market today was discovered?

impossible.

At that time, he left no clue at all.

Or maybe Bi Luo leaked the news and betrayed herself?

Li Mu shook his head.

Not possible either.

Bi Luo's doing this will not benefit him at all, and there is no special feedback from the war slave contract - the contracts of the other six war slaves are also completely normal.

Li Mu frowned slightly.

He got up and walked out of the room and came to the courtyard.

"Owner."

Six war slaves saluted one after another.

Li Mu nodded.

At this time, even the Sixth War Slave noticed that around the inn, a large number of immortal Taoists were approaching, and at the same time, thousands of Taoist troops from the Demon Pavilion were quietly approaching from the streets on all sides.

And there is no doubt that it is for Li Mu and others.

Because soon, the courtyard where they were located became the center of the encirclement.

All the other courtyards in the inn were spared, but this courtyard was the only one. Outside the courtyard wall, in the sky, there were powerful immortals waiting around. The Taoist army set up formations to completely surround them, and terrible pressure swept over them.
