At that remark, the smile on the faces of the pasture Army Advisor and the Junior Chief of the Moon-shooting Tribe both immediately faded. The two exchanged a look, obviously a little worried about leaving Guo Qinyan behind.
The pasture Army Advisor asked tentatively, "Senior, do you have some confidential matters to tell the Virgin Goddess?"
Li Mu replied, "Why ask if you already know it's confidential?"
The pasture Army Advisor looked quite embarrassed.
He was speechless at Li Mu's answer. He felt that he could not communicate with that mysterious hero in the usual way. Each remark Li Mu said could leave him at a loss for words... Could he just have a normal conversation with others?
The pasture Army Advisor and the Junior Chief of the Moon-shooting Tribe still felt a little concerned for the Virgin Goddess, because she was... too stunning after all.
From the two's looks, Li Mu could tell what was
The second Guo Qinyan stepped into the formation, she found everything she saw was in a swirl and felt her body much lighter. After a few seconds, when the objects around her returned to normal, she glanced about only to find that she was already standing in the midst of thick woods. "Your Highness." "Qing Yan..." Crowds in the vicinity closed upon her, who turned out to be the Junior Chief of the Moon-shooting Tribe and the others that had been transported there earlier. Plainly, the man with the silver smiley-ghost mask had not lied to her. He truly had transported them out of the city of Chang'an. The place was surrounded by mountains which looked dark at night. And the howls and roars of beasts could be heard indistinctly. From the look of the environment, that place was at least dozens of miles away from Chang'an, so they had kind of reached the wild. "Your Highness, that man... didn't make thin
"You should beat my magic?" Flame Elder quickly recovered from the shock and bellowed in a way he believed was quite threatening, "Monster, today I will make you show your cloven foot!" He stuck the wand at his side and rolled up the sleeves, thoroughly losing the demeanor of an old immortal he displayed before. Now, exasperated, he fished out a large mirror framed by gold and silver from his pocket. The mirror was divided into five parts, on one of which the fire mark was shining. He held that part in his palm, compelled his spiritual force to pour directly into the part of the mirror framed by gold and silver with the fire mark. In a trice, dazzling light shot out from that part. The temperature in the vicinity soared up at once. The four experts of the Musical House felt every inch of their body was burningly hot as if they were in a furnace. Even their hair curled like withered leaves under scorching sunlight. Liu Chenglong
With a series of clanks, the green rust crusted the mirror framed by gold and silver and the blots that came into being during its long history as well as the gold and silver threads bounded the mirror all peeled off and fell to the floor. Meanwhile, layers of Taoist patterns started to tinkle and swirl. The external form of the mirror changed magnificently. Eventually, surrounded by the Taoist patterns, the mirror turned into a pentagon seal in five colors. Each of the five angles was marked by one of the colors of gold, wood, water, fire, the earth five elements, which were silver, cyan, blue, red, and yellow respectively. And each of the five divisions was the size of a grow-up palm. As the mirror glinted five divine colors, five streams of obscure but potent power fluctuated, which continuously reinforced and restrained one another. It could be indistinctly seen that they were contracting as well as raging inside the pentagon seal.
"I've done all that I can do. Now that I did my part, the rest shall depend on Heaven." Li Mu heaved with a sigh. At the thought of the gorgeous and sophisticated Mrs. Tang as well as her two fairy-like pretty daughters, Li Mu could not help but feel slightly rueful and concerned for their fate. "Keep following their case. If you hear any news about Mrs. Tang and her family, inform me at any time." Li Mu told Zheng Cunjian. "Yes, sir." Zheng Cunjian bowed to take the order. Then, he asked, "Young Master, when are you going to leave Chang'an?" Li Mu replied, "I haven't got to visit the libraries of the Hanshan Academy and the Fengming Academy yet. So, I figure we have to spend a few more days in Chang'an." At his words, Zheng Cunjian's expression hardened a little as he suggested, "I reckon Young Master should get out of Chang'an as soon as possible." Li Mu ga
"Your Highness, I'm afraid that the evil remainders of the Tang family have already run away from the city," said Liu Chenglong. Though he had the broken arm sewed back, he still looked a little pallid. In the past few days, he had set off a manhunt across the entire city, during which a load of villains and demons were discovered by coincidence but no traces of Mrs. Tang and her two daughters were found. That led Liu Chenglong to doubt whether they were already gone. The second prince, however, said with a serene face, "I'm sure they are still in the city." He certainly did not make that judgment without ground. Yet, he decided not to enlighten Liu Chenglong on it. Because the manager's recent performance was kind of disappointing. The second prince even started suspecting the once capable official from Qin City was losing his sharpness after staying in Chang'an for all those years.
Executive Xu Sheng was an elder of the first-grade Yue Mountain Faction. When he was in his prime, he was an omnipotent Killing God who could crush any adversaries. As he grew older, he gradually realized the importance of cultivating his body and mind, so he returned to the Yue Mountain Faction and focused on practicing martial arts. His cultivation improved day by day, and he soon was enlisted by the Imperial Executive Group subject to the Supervisor Department as the representative of the Yue Mountain Faction. That the Supervisor Department sent Xu Sheng to Chang'an was, actually, a manifestation of their dissatisfaction with Lu Lizi's recent performance. Thus, the department assigned Xu Sheng to take over everything in Chang'an from then on. "You're truly useless. You've been in Chang'an for weeks but still failed to handle a little boy. You don't deserve to be a Routing Supervisor!" Xu Sheng scolded harshly. When the execu
"How could it be?" Chu Nantian was a little dumbstruck. The tactical deployment outside the Shack was quite mysterious. He could not see what tricks it had. All he knew was that it was perfect as though built by nature and he failed to spot any flaws in it. He tried to crack it and even launched attacks with his Flying Eagle Sword at last. However, none of his efforts worked. No matter how much power he utilized to strike, his attack simply disappeared into the tactic deployment like a drop of water falling to a sea. When he struck with the Flying Eagle Sword, it almost sank into the mysterious defense, too. Thanks to the Sword-commanding Style he cast at the last second did he yank his Flying Eagle Sword out before it vanished. "Want some help?" A voice said from the back. Chu Nantian looked over his shoulder. He saw another man who also looked in his early youth standing behind him. T
Chu Nantian felt his world had been turned upside down. He could hardly believe what he saw. "How... How come you also know the Sword-commanding Style? You..." He stared at Li Mu as if bumping into a ghost in broad daylight. Li Mu, still, commanded the Flying Eagle Sword to do all sorts of movements over the Pig-Herding Alley. It shot about like lightning, cut open the void and the airflow, displaying its unmatched power. Its connotations and speed were evidently more remarkable than what Chu Nantian showed a moment ago. "I learned it from you," said Li Mu brightly. With a stir of his mind, the Flying Eagle Sword soared back and suspended over the top of Li Mu's head, still vibrating and buzzing, showing off its sharpness. "I... You..." stuttered Chu Nantian in disbelief. Zhang Chengfeng and the other disciples from the Heaven Sword Martial Club, who were then in a trance, seemed to hav
Li Mu's cultivation nowadays was at the peak of the Golden Immortal, and his battle power could cut down the first generals.If one were to obtain a drop of Immortal Marrow, one could instantly leap into the peak of Immortal Generals, and at that time, even if one were to face an Immortal King, one would be able to defeat him in battle, not to mention traversing across the major state capitals, even if it was the entire Eastern Sacred Continent, the heavens and the earth were vast, and one could go to it.At that time, it would be like a fish out of water to find Wang Shiyu, Hua Wanyong, and the others.At that thought, Li Mu immediately became desirous of this Immortal Marrow."One drop of Immortal Marrow, one great realm, so if a bottle of Immortal Marrow were all swallowed, wouldn't it directly soar into the Immortal Emperor, Immortal Emperor or even Immortal Lord realm?" Li Mu said.Xia Jing was stunned and then giggled."I didn't expect that
Uh-huh?What a scene of déjà vu.Li Mu all of a sudden, remembered the legendary Liu Huangshu Baidicheng entrusted the orphan.It's a pity that the Emperor is not Uncle Liu.And Li Mu is not Zhuge Kongming.Li Mu said indifferently, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I can make a dao oath that I won't taint the imperial power of Huangji Cliff for the rest of my life.""Cough cough cough ......" the emperor coughed, hastily said: "I ...... am not using words to frame you, I... ...In the chaotic world, there is no strength, sooner or later ...... sooner or later is the death ...... of the disaster ...... wood brother you if you are the emperor, or you may be able to ...... preserve a trace of my bloodline, I ......"Li Mu said, "Your Majesty's meaning, I understand, but my words remain the same, I will never dye the royal fist, Emperor Chen will be a bright ruler."The emperor sighed and said, "I understand ...... all ...... all stand down ....
Reimu smiled.Snap your fingers.Phew.A golden stream of light flashed by.Emperor Zhen, who was roaring at the top of his lungs, his voice came to an abrupt end, and his hands covered his neck, a splash of blood seeped out, followed by golden flames, which spewed out from his body."You ...... you dare to kill me?"He looked at Li Mu incredulously and eventually turned into a puff of flying ash.In the great hall, there was an instant dead silence.The horrific images, although they had ended, the aftermath was still like a hurricane, still madly hitting everyone's nerves over and over again.Prince Wood actually went out and killed someone?He actually made a move?Killing a royal son with royal blood flowing in his body right here in this great hall?He dared.He really dared.All the ministers felt that their bodies were cold, as if they had fallen into an ice cave, like the cold winter of the t
The other ministers in the hall, hearing such words, could not help but look at Zheng Yuan with shocked gazes.The so-called Emperor Tatsu's son is a wild seed, this kind of thing, if you don't explode it sooner or later, and you don't explode it at this time, what is the intention?Besides, it's not certain whether it's true or not.Saying such words in such an important meeting of the court was tantamount to slapping the emperor's face in public and rubbing the emperor's majesty, on the ground.What a nerve.On one side, Servant Yin's face changed wildly as she shook her head and argued, "No, it's not like that, Chen'er is His Majesty's child ...... "When the Emperor intended to set up Emperor Chen as the Crown Prince just now, she vaguely realized that this was a dangerous signal, the treacherous darkness of the palace court was not something she could resist as a small servant girl.But I didn't expect the slander and danger to come so
"Tatsu-chan!"Servant Yin was filled with a huge surprise in her chest and subconsciously rushed over to the little boy and held him in her arms."Mother, you're here too ...... Mother, I've seen father."The little boy dug into Squire Yin's arms with delight.His first words had to do with his parents.But many snickers resounded clearly and audibly in the great hall.Although no one said anything, the meaning was clear: 'Father' is a word you call, too?Servant Yin, however, didn't pay that much attention.In the instant she saw her son, her heart, without the slightest bit of nervousness or panic, held her son firmly in her arms, and the only thought in her entire life and soul at that moment was to protect her son at all costs."Do not make a noise and stand aside."The Grand Eunuch opened his mouth to chide.The little boy then kept his mouth tightly shut.He was foolish and hadn't seen much of the world, b
A cold aura flickered.A sword to the death.The sharp sword was about to pierce the young maid's brow.Just then, a sudden change occurred.Suddenly space and time seemed to freeze, and the black-clothed assassin realized that his immortal sword, after all, was no longer able to progress the slightest bit.What's going on?He was alarmed in his mind.And yet the next moment--Ding!The sword body incredibly broke apart and turned into countless shards.The tip of the sword flew backward and penetrated the black-clothed assassin's throat.Before the blood could soar out, his body erupted into a ball of golden flames, which then turned into flying ash and dissipated into the air.The little maid looked at what was in front of her in shock.In that moment just now, she thought she was bound to die.It turned out to be the assassin who died.Who saved me?She gasped in horror and looked arou
The Emperor was sitting on the throne of the Nine to Five, a little tired.The fact that he was poisoned was not revealed to the public.So until now, no one has known.But the toxin was eating away at his body so frantically that his energy was declining so much that his entire body felt extremely tired at all times.The sound of ministers' ears arguing seemed near and far away in the ear.The hand-wringing Prince Tatsu was led by the great eunuch and stood on the side of the dragon chair.Eight or nine year old boy, for the first time out of that small compound, face full of fear, timid, like a small goat caught in a wolf pack, not knowing what to do, lowered his head, twisted the corner of his coat, did not even dare to come out of the atmosphere.This look, in the eyes of the ministers, is even more unbearable."Your Majesty's intention to establish a Crown Prince is a major event, and should not be done in haste, perhaps it should
The little boy did not return until late afternoon.The young maid tried to inquire about the news several times, but was mercilessly stopped by the palace's close guards guarding the entrance of the firewood courtyard.She had been until, herself, she was secluded.This alarmed the young maid even more.What the hell is going on?What kind of terrible things would Tatsu'er face if he went to the palace?The Empress and the Noble Consorts, they won't poison him, will they?Why did His Majesty suddenly summon Chen'er to the palace?She speculated in her mind in fear, her tears were like a fountain that she could not control at all.It's a mother's love for her son.Humble but great love.Kneeling on both knees in the courtyard, she looked up at the Hao Sun that was gradually setting in the sky, and at the silver full moon that had already risen, shedding tears and silently praying with her life and soul."Tatsu'e
The Emperor was at the half-step Golden Immortal level of cultivation, and although this realm was forcefully instilled with various resources and secret techniques, the realm was enough after all.The lifespan of a half-step Golden Immortal could be more than five thousand years.So the Emperor never thought that he would have to face death head on, so soon."It's so ...... ungrateful."He smiled bitterly on his face and sighed deeply on the inside.But in the end, you have to face reality.The biggest problem to consider today was who should inherit the throne of Huangji Cliff after his death.He had only ascended the throne as emperor for just over two years, and because he was diligent in his political affairs and too young, he had not even considered the matter of the succession of the throne.In the harem, there are but one wife and two concubines.These three women were not his true love, but were allied for the sake of pr
