0293. Kill at the Door
Zheng Cunjian was trembling in his heart.
He was afraid that Li Mu would change his mind.
Li Mu seemed to be annoyed and said: "I forgot to take down Liu Chong's white crane. This guy is riding a bird and flies very fast. It is estimated that the speed of the news reaching Guanshan Ranch will be much faster than the previous calculation... Tsk tsk tsk, I have to prepare in advance.”
Only then did Zheng Cunjian react, and his heart lightened.
Fortunately, it wasn't Demon King Li who changed his mind.
Seeing that Li Mu had no intention of talking anymore, he quickly walked out of the room without saying anything more.
But when I think about it, this thing doesn’t seem right.
If Liu Chong rides the white crane back to Guanshan Ranch, the speed will be faster. The faster the revenge of Guanshan Ranch comes, doesn't it mean that there will be less time left for him. No matter what, he must kill him at Guanshan Ranch. Before killing Li Mu, ask Li Mu to help you unlock the life and death talisman.
Why did he feel that what he said just now was actually said by Li Mu to him.
No matter what, we have to fight.
No matter what the price is, all the information on the Star Stone must be collected and delivered within three days.
Even if Zheng Cunjian dies, he doesn't want to suffer the terrible feeling of being tortured by the [Life and Death Talisman] again.
…
…
time flies.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Liu Chong's strength was greatly reduced, and naturally he was unable to drive the white crane day and night as he did in the past.
High in the sky, the wind is fierce.
Without the protection of his cultivation in the Heavenly Realm, if he is not careful, he will be swept off the back of the white crane by the strong wind. He will lose his ability to control the air and will be smashed into a meat pie.
Therefore, he rode the crane all the way, flying at low altitude, but his speed was not as fast as when he came.
After three days of being on tenterhooks, Liu Chong returned to Guanshan City and anxiously asked to see the deputy master Huang Shengyi. However, the result he received was that the deputy master had left the museum one day ago and headed to Chang'an Mansion.
"The deputy field master already knows the news?"
Liu Chong's face turned dark.
He did not dare to stop at Guanshan City, and immediately rushed towards Chang'an Mansion.
Be sure to tell deputy owner Huang the news as soon as possible.
Because Deputy Field Master Huang may not know that Li Mu in Taibai County has near-invincible power at the level of a saint. If he kills him rashly, he will probably suffer a loss.
Although it sounds ridiculous that the deputy owner of Guanshan Ranch, who is half a saint, should guard against a junior who is not worthy of heaven, Liu Chong's personal experience tells him that this is a fact.
…
…
The fourth day.
Chang'an Prefecture, the prefect's Yamen.
"It's really not you?" Huang Sheng was suspended in mid-air, not hiding his aura, murderous, and his voice was hoarse, like a murderous god, staring at Li Gang and questioning.
Within the yamen, all the bureaucrats and guards looked pale, frightened by the aura of the half-step heavenly being.
It happened suddenly.
Originally, they were all working in an orderly manner in the yamen. Who would have known that such a powerful man who looked like a fairy and a demon suddenly descended upon them, and the terrifying aura, like a vast ocean, drowned them, suffocating them.
Li Gang was sitting behind the desk in the lobby.
His expression was very calm, his expression was calm, his face was indifferent, he looked elegant and handsome, and he said: "Master Huang, Mr. Huang and I have no grievances, why did we kill him?"
Huang Shengyi looked through the door of the lobby and stared at Li Gang's face. After a long time, he nodded and said: "What you said makes sense. The Red Dust Sword Immortal is not someone who dares to admit what he does. I, just... I believe you’ll say goodbye for once.”
Before he finished speaking, he turned into a ray of fire and disappeared into the distant sky.
Li Gang looked at the direction in which the deputy owner of Guanshan Ranch disappeared, which was in the Taibai Mountains. He seemed to have thought of something, and a strange smile appeared on his face that was as handsome and elegant as white jade.
Huang Shengyi is too domineering, what does he think of the magistrate's office?
Therefore, there are some things that he did not say.
…
An hour later.
Taibai Mountains, the gate of Taibai Sword Sect.
All members of the faction feel as if they are facing a formidable enemy.
The sword bell hanging on the top of the main peak rang for a long time. The rapid sounds shook the hearts of every Taibai Sword Sect disciple. The mountain-protecting formation was broken by a sudden foreign enemy almost immediately, just like the arrival of gods and demons. The terrifying aura, as vast as the ocean, covered the sky above the entire Taibai Sword Sect's mountain gate.
"Zhao Xue, come out and answer."
Huang Shengyi's voice stirred between heaven and earth, shocking some of the Taibai Sword Sect disciples with lower strength and making them dizzy.
Countless swordsman disciples looked up at Huang Shengyi who was standing in the sky and suddenly came to kill him. Their eyes were full of anger, fear and doubt.
call out!
A ray of sword light rose into the sky, splitting half of the sky.
The flow of sword intent was like the snow on the top of the main peak, suppressing the overwhelming flame aura of Guanshan Ranch deputy owner Huang Shengyi by half.
He is dressed in white and has long hair like snow.
Zhao Xue, the Taibai Sword God, stands with his sword behind his back, his figure is graceful and elegant to the extreme, just like a fairy.
At that time, Taibai Sword God, who was famous in the Western Qin Dynasty, was a famously handsome man. He was as cool and cold as Taibai snow. He once competed with the red dust swordsman Li Gang and was called the Western Qin Double Sword. Unfortunately, he later lost to Li Gang. .
"[Red Fire Demon God] Huang Shengyi? Deputy Field Master Huang, why are you so excited to bring the master of questioning to our Taibai Sword Sect?" Zhao Xue asked with a calm expression, her hair as white as frost, her face handsome and elegant.
"Did my grandson Huang Wenyuan die at your hands?" Huang Shengyi stared at Zhao Xue and asked word by word.
"Your grandson was harmed by someone?" Zhao Xue was stunned and said, "I don't know about this matter, and I didn't do anything about it. There is no enmity between Guanshan Ranch and Deputy Farm Owner Huang between me and Taibai Sword." Over the years, Pai has rarely been involved in disputes between Jianghu and Jianghu."
"Not you either?" Huang Shengyi frowned.
In the entire Chang'an Mansion, the only people who have the ability to kill their grandson under the protection of Liu Chong, the Four-step Heavenly Man, are Li Gang and Zhao Xue, and they are both not?
"Taibai Sword God was also a man of his word back then. Since you say it's not you, I believe it." Huang Shengyi gradually calmed down his hostility.
His evaluation of Zhao Xue is obviously higher than that of Li Gang.
Back then, Zhao Xue was known as a humble gentleman, as gentle as jade, and as true to his words as he promised. He was recognized as a true gentleman in the temple and in the world.
"However, my grandson did die in Chang'an Mansion. Could it be that there is a third peak heavenly being in Chang'an Mansion, or is he a saint?" Huang Shengyi looked at Zhao Xue and said: "Master Zhao, I am I haven’t been in the martial arts world for a long time, and I know very little about the martial arts in Chang’an Mansion. I wonder if Master Zhao knows that there are other masters and strong men who have risen in Chang’an Mansion in the past twenty years?”
Zhao Xuedao: "The most popular master in Chang'an Mansion right now is Li Mu, the Poet and Martial Immortal. However, he is only in the innate realm and has not yet entered heaven."
Huang Shengyi shook his head and said: "Li Mu, I have heard that he used a rare treasure to kill the second prince. He should not have such strength..." At this point, he suddenly stopped and suddenly felt that he had been trapped in four situations before. It's a misunderstanding, it seems like something was overlooked.
The second prince's strength was extraordinary, and he was in the realm of heaven and man. As for the battle that day, Huang Shengyi, the deputy owner of Guanshan Ranch, naturally received some inside information, and he died in Li Mu's hands.
Moreover, his grandson went to take over as the magistrate of Taibai County, and the deep-seated reason was to pick peaches. There was no guarantee that Li Mu would not get angry... This, he had ignored this aspect before?
"Farewell."
Huang Shengyi's belief suddenly became clear, and his figure turned into a streak of fire and disappeared directly.
Zhao Xue looked in the direction of Taibai County with a slightly solemn expression.
The other members of the Taibai Sword Sect felt relieved when they saw the Half-Step Heavenly Man finally leaving.
The idol in their hearts, with his neither humble nor arrogant attitude just now, made many younger generation disciples worship him even more. Even people like the deputy owner of Guanshan Ranch were extremely polite to the leader. Just one sentence, It solves the upcoming war. What kind of personality charm is this?
A feeling of pride, pride, yearning and admiration overflowed in the hearts of many Taibai Sword Sect disciples.
Zhao Yu, riding the Taibai Sword, came to Zhao Xue's side.
"Headmaster, Li Mu's side..." In Zhao Yu's heart, he actually had a little objection to the headmaster directly directing the topic to Li Mu. After all, it seemed that he was directly referring to Li Mu. Sold.
Zhao Xue sighed and said, "Do you think I sold Li Mu? No, I was helping him."
"Help him?" Zhao Yu was stunned and didn't know why.
Zhao Xue explained patiently: "Since Li Mu chose to kill Huang Wenyuan directly, he will not be able to escape today's disaster, but it will only be a matter of time... I see that Huang Shengyi came in a rage, and it seems that he has not investigated everything that happened in Taibai County. He didn't know that Li Mu secretly held a power that could rival the saint, and he was careless. Therefore, it was better for him to go to Li Mu earlier than later. Once he calmed down and investigated Li Mu's trump card, he chose to attack. By then, the situation Li Mu will face will be even more difficult."
It is a good thing for young people to draw their swords in anger when they are full of blood.
However, too much strength is easy to break, and it is unwise to provoke such a strong enemy.
If Li Mu could be patient, lay dormant, and practice for decades, he might not be able to compete with the forces represented by Huang Shengyi, but unfortunately... he was still too impatient.
"Xiaoyu, let's go, come with me to Taibai County." Zhao Xueyao said.
When Zhao Yu heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "The leader is willing to help Li Mu?"
"Let's take a look. I hope I can save his life."
…
…
Timeline, go back two days.
In the study.
The warm winter sunshine shines through the shadows of the trees, filling the whole room with a pleasant smell.
"People are forced out, hahaha, this sentence is absolutely correct."
Li Mu crossed his legs, not having the awareness of a county magistrate to do whatever he felt comfortable with, and sighed happily.
It took him a full hour to read the information about the star stone sent by Zheng Cunjian, and he sighed like this.
To be honest, Li Mu had an eye-opening feeling. It turned out that this star stone contained so much knowledge and secrets. If it were on earth, it would be possible to set up a dedicated subject in Sanben University.
Demon King Li felt that a door to a new world was slowly opening in front of his eyes.
This star stone seems to be specially made for Li Mu, and it has great potential.
