Deep into the night.
On the way back to their residence, Ye He looked at her younger sister Ye Ying beside her. She wanted to say something several times, but stopped herself.
"Sister, do you want to ask about Li Mu?" Ye Ying was in a much better mood, so she asked with a smile.
Ye He shook her head. "It's useless. You obviously don't know. Li Mu has a big problem. It's not as simple as it looks. This time, I'm afraid the thunder lineage has gotten itself into big trouble. "
Ye Ying became even more curious. "Sister, you're exaggerating. The thunder lineage's influence in the Chaotic World is not limited to the human race. Although Li Mu is strong, he can't shake this inheritance."
Ye He said, "It's just … a feeling."
She recalled Jiang Buping's strange behavior at the last moment. She felt that the old city lord seemed to know something and had a strange connection with Li Mu.
"Hee hee, sister, are you curious about Li Mu too?" Ye Ying winked. "You're in danger now. Many great loves start with curiosity. Don't stare at me. That's what you scolded me with."
"Maybe you made the right decision tonight," Ye He said.
"Huh?"
"You were right to insist on going to the city lord's residence."
"I told you so."
"At least Li Mu is not hostile to you now. Maybe it's a good thing for the family."
"I'm not doing it for the family. I just see him as a friend."
"It's just a coincidence."
"Sister, I think Li Mu is a good match for you."
"Shut up."
"Really? Haven't you always been arrogant and looked down on all kinds of geniuses? Hee hee, a monster like Li Mu can catch your eye, right? Besides, he's not from a big family. Maybe he can marry into your family. He meets your requirements. "
"Shut up."
"Hee hee, sister, if you don't do it, I will."
"Shut up, you wicked girl."
…
"Third Uncle …" Lin Jingxin looked at Lin An.
"What do you want to say?" Lin An walked ahead without looking back.
Lin Jingxin said, "Perhaps I really need to change this lazy personality of mine. I'll set off for the Southern Vermillion Army tomorrow."
"Not bad. You've finally grown." Lin An stopped and looked at Lin Jing Xin.
In the eyes of outsiders, this nephew of Lin Jingxin's was not considered outstanding among the younger generation of the Lin Family. Compared to the other juniors of the Lin Family who had already become generals or led their own armies, his brilliance was completely overshadowed. However, only a few seniors of the Lin Family knew that Lin Jingxin's talent and physique were the best in the Lin Family. If it wasn't for that incident …
Now, this proud son of heaven from the Lin Family who had given up on himself.
Are you finally starting to take responsibility?
Good news.
"This Li Mu … Hey, he is really a monster."
What the Lin Family couldn't do for five or six years, he did in just a few days.
…
…
"Old Jiang, are you sure?"
Liao Zhi looked shocked and excited. "Is it really that man?"
As Jiang Buping dragged Liao Zhi to the back garden of the Castellan Mansion, he lowered his voice and said, "Yes, I'm absolutely right. It must be the God Whipping Whip that can kill the true spirit. The prophecy is finally coming true. That man has come. Li Mu is that man, the chosen one we've been waiting for for so many years."
The two of them quickly arrived in front of an inconspicuous rockery in the back garden. Jiang Buping pressed a protruding stone on the rockery in an extremely rhythmic manner before turning it left and right. There was not the slightest aura of a formation. The sound of gears turning rang out, and the rockery creaked as it moved, revealing the entrance to a basement.
They entered the underground secret chamber.
It was spacious inside. There was a square table with an incense burner on it. On the wall behind the table, there was a painting of an old man riding a green ox. He had white eyebrows and a white beard, a wide forehead, and a strange face.
Jiang Buping and Liao Zhi came to the square table, knelt on the rush cushion, and bowed respectfully.
Then, he took out three pale golden incense sticks. Upon a closer look, the golden light on the surface of the incense sticks was clearly a faint golden talisman, which was silently flowing.
He lit the golden incense sticks with his palm power and inserted them into the incense burner.
Smoke curled up.
The smoke condensed in the air and did not disperse, outlining strange symbols.
"What's the matter?"
The old man in the painting opened his mouth, and his voice was gentle and distant, like the sound of nature.
"Patriarch, the third-generation disciples, Jiang Buping and Liao Zhi, have found the master of the God Whipping Whip."
Jiang Buping and Liao Zhi threw themselves to the ground and bowed with great respect and admiration.
…
…
It was getting colder and colder in the wilderness.
Li Mu sat on a pile of rocks by the river to avoid the wind.
The bald old man's incomplete True Spirit Body was imprisoned by a Taoist magic art. He stared at Li Mu with a furious face.
"This wind can even blow away the protective True Spirit of a martial arts expert. It seems that the winter in this world is more terrible than I thought."
Li Mu felt a burst of cold.
By right, his physique had long been immune to cold and heat.
There were less than 10 days left before the winter. Not only the temperature had changed, but Li Mu also felt that even the laws between heaven and earth had undergone some subtle changes. This was a very strange phenomenon.
It seemed that the difference between the winter and the warm season in this world was not just about the temperature.
"Tell me, what's going on with the divination of the Seven Stars Magic Lamp?" Li Mu looked at the bald old man and said in a flat tone, "Don't tell me you don't know either."
He raised his hand and removed some Taoist magic arts from the bald old man's True Spirit Body.
"You little bastard, you …" The bald old man opened his mouth and cursed.
"Swoosh!"
The broadsword light flashed.
A golden broadsword light flashed and cut off the bald old man's ear.
"I advise you to answer my question." Li Mu leaned against the rock and did not even look at the bald old man. The expression on his face was frighteningly calm, as if he was thinking about something else.
"Ah …" The bald old man screamed.
When the True Spirit Body was injured, the pain was like a soul injury, which was far more painful than a physical injury.
"Little bastard, you'll never know." The bald old man was in great pain, but he stared at Li Mu and said, "Don't think that everyone is afraid of death. When I dominated the world, your grandfather's hair was not even fully grown. If you want to kill me, just do it. You'll soon know the horror of the thunder method."
Li Mu glanced at him and said, "Wrong answer."
Swoosh!
The golden broadsword light flashed.
The other ear of the bald old man fell off.
He screamed in pain and stared at Li Mu with a vicious smile, his eyes full of hatred.
"If you don't tell me, I'll cut you into pieces bit by bit, just like peeling a carrot." Li Mu's tone was as calm as if he were eating or drinking, but the killing intent in his words was enough to make people shudder.
"Why don't you guess what I did when I wasn't with Lei Zang all the time?" The bald old man suddenly laughed hideously, with hysterical madness on his face.
Li Mu slowly sat up, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
He thought of a terrible possibility.
"Haha, little bastard, with your wisdom, you've figured it out, haven't you? Hahaha, you are indeed the one with the most terrifying wisdom, martial arts, courage, and means among the younger generation that I have ever seen. But you are not a perfect person. Moreover, you have learned to be passive. How can you make up for everything? Hahahaha!
The bald old man laughed wildly, his eyes full of cruelty.
Li Mu stood up, and the expression on his face was unprecedentedly ferocious. His eyes were as sharp as a knife. He said, "If anything happens to anyone in the East Star Village, I swear I'll destroy your thunder method and your orthodoxy."
"Hahaha, something happens to anyone? Any one of them? " The bald old man laughed crazily and proudly. "I'm afraid there's not a single living person in the entire East Star Village now. Oh, no, there's one more, but that's about it. Haha, destroy my orthodoxy? You don't deserve to …"
Swoosh!
The golden broadsword light flashed.
The head of the bald old man's True Spirit Body flew up.
Li Mu was shaking all over. He was drowned in indescribable anger.
The broadsword light flickered and directly chopped the bald old man's True Spirit Body into pieces.
Without any hesitation, he soared into the sky, turned into a beam of golden light, and madly rushed in the direction of the East Star Village.
…
…
In the Thunder Method Ancestral Court.
In the [Hall of Heroes], which enshrined all the Deity disciples of the Thunder Dao lineage, among the 21 divine lamps in the third row, the third lamp from the left suddenly flickered and quickly extinguished, emitting a puff of green smoke.
The disciple on duty, who was cleaning the Hall of Heroes, turned pale when he saw this scene. He turned around and flew out.
A moment later, a stooped old man with shoulder-length hair walked in step by step. Looking at the extinguished lamp, he was speechless for a long time.
"The God Whipping Whip has really appeared. Now it seems that Lei Zang was right."
The old man's eyes were deep, like flickering candlelight. His fingers kept moving, and his face kept changing. In the end, his face became paler and paler. Red blood vessels bulged on the skin of his neck. His face looked ferocious and terrible. Eventually, his face became redder and redder …
"Puff!"
At last, he opened his mouth and spat out an arrow of blood, which dyed the floor of the Hall of Heroes red.
"He is indeed the owner of the God Whipping Whip. The Heaven's design is so chaotic, but I can't figure out anything. Since Mingyu was killed, the news of the God Whipping Whip must have been leaked. I believe that the other side will soon know. It's impossible to kill Li Mu now."
The old man turned around and said to the old servant beside him, "Remove that lamp and prepare the carriage. I'm going to the Heaven Imperial Court to meet the Taoist Ancestor."
"Yes, master," said the servant.
