On the Divine Land.
"Young Master?!"
"Young Master, you're finally back."
Taibai City was now a big city as beautiful as a fairyland, with a population of over a million. In addition to the original aborigines who lived there, there were also many monsters who moved here and settled down in the mountains because they yearned for the Spiritual Qi of Taibai Mountain.
Humans and demons lived together in harmony.
Qing Feng and Ming Yue, the two little attendants, were at the age of youth. But now, they had become famous big shots. Ming Yue was still a silly foodie, while Qing Feng seemed much more mature. He liked to imitate Li Mu's dressing style, which was as white as jade, simple and unadorned.
At the sight of Li Mu, Qing Feng revealed a sincere smile, while Ming Yue directly pounced on him like a little rabbit and jumped into Li Mu's arms, just like before.
"Er … You're a big girl now. Mind your image. How can Qing Feng marry you when you're so crazy?" Li Mu directly made fun of her.
Ming Yue blushed at once.
"Well, there's really something going on." Li Mu laughed.
"Third Brother." Guo Yuqing smiled and opened his arms to him.
Li Mu went up and gave him a bear hug. Then, he noticed something and said with great joy, "Big Brother, you must have had another adventure. Your cultivation has soared to such a high level."
That was really a pleasant surprise.
Since Li Mu left the Divine Land, the connection between him and Guo Yuqing had been decreasing day by day. But their brotherhood did not weaken at all. When they met again at this time, it was like yesterday. Li Mu was delighted to find that Guo Yuqing's cultivation had reached the High Emperor Realm. It could be said that his cultivation had skyrocketed. He should have had some other lucky encounter, which might have something to do with the Everlasting Heaven of the Wolf Temple.
"Third Brother." Qiu Yin, the Broadsword Man, also came up and hugged Li Mu.
Although the future leader of the Guanshan Pasture did not improve as horribly as Guo Yuqing's, he was also at the peak of the Soldier Realm and almost touched the General Realm. On the Divine Land, he was a super existence.
Ma Junwu, Feng Yuanxing, and the others also came up and bowed to Li Mu.
In the past, they were just insignificant officials in Taibai County of the Chang 'an Prefecture of the Western Qin Empire. They were not even ranked. But now, they had also practiced martial arts. Although they could not be regarded as top experts, they could prolong their lives. Moreover, they enjoyed a high status and lived a carefree life. Compared with the county magistrate, the Dianshi janitor, and the others who had been beheaded, they could be said to have had a meteoric rise. Looking back on the past, they also sighed again and again that following Li Mu was simply the best choice they had made in their lives. Perhaps those so-called officials who followed the emperor in the history books could not compare with them in terms of wealth and opportunities.
Li Mu also sighed with emotion and patted their shoulders one by one.
The news of Li Mu's arrival had long been spread out, so the entire Taibai County was in an uproar, especially those aborigines, who were extremely grateful to Li Mu. More than a decade ago, when Li Mu was lining up at the gate of the county, waiting to enter the city, no one could have imagined that the barren and remote Taibai County would turn into a fairyland in less than 20 years.
In fact, what Li Mu had changed was not only the fate of Ma Junwu and the others, but the history of the entire Taibai City, the entire Western Qin, and the entire Divine Land had been changed by Li Mu, the outsider.
The aborigines now enjoyed a very high status in the city. The original old district was now the core area of Taibai City, which was the territory of those aborigines. Some aborigines rented out their old houses. With the monthly rent, they could buy a house and buy a land in the new district. They did not have to work hard for the rest of their lives and could live a carefree life. The original farmers were also enrolled in the martial arts school in the city for free and could practice martial arts. The government would guarantee the status and interests of the aborigines as soon as possible.
"Master Li Qingtian."
"Magistrate."
"Magistrate."
All kinds of appellations made Li Mu feel that he had returned to the days when he just arrived at the Taibai Lake. He looked carefully and found that among the aborigines kneeling on the ground, he could still recognize some of them. Their faces were quite familiar. The Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth gathered in Taibai City. The mountains, rivers, and trees all contained Spiritual Charm. Even the ordinary people who did not practice would live longer if they drank the spring water, ate the five grains, and breathed the air of this world. So, after more than a decade, their appearances basically did not change much.
"My fellow villagers, please rise."
Li Mu said.
Meeting the old friends was also a kind of nostalgia.
Li Mu had seen too many storms. He had long passed the stage of showing off in front of his old friends after returning home in glory. He did not put on airs at all and was more easy-going than before.
With great difficulty, he walked along the street. Surrounded by the crowd, he came to the outside of the Knife Hut, which used to be the county government.
A few years ago, Li Mu killed the descendants of the six major races and many kings. After returning to the Divine Land, he abolished the emperor of Qin who had lost his mind and directly replaced the Qin Empire that was about to unify the Divine Land. The Qin Empire only had the capital as its fief. The former royal family of the Qin Empire had been raised in Qin City and preserved their bloodline.
The other two of the three empires — the Northern Song and the Southern Chu — had been smashed by the Western Qin, and most of them ended up in the same way.
The entire Divine Land was unified under the power of Taibai City.
Today, Taibai City had become the administrative, military, and economic center of the entire Divine Land.
It was no exaggeration to say that Taibai City was the holy land of the entire Divine Land.
And the Knife Hut was the core of Taibai City, the holy land of the holy land.
The Knife Hut was the original site of the Taibai County government. It was located at the highest point of the entire Taibai City. After Li Mu moved the county government, he built the Knife Hut there to gather Spiritual Qi and practice his broadsword-using methods. It was also the place where he had achieved the basic level of broadsword-using methods.
Later, Li Mu returned from the universe and rebuilt the tactical deployment system of Taibai City. The Knife Hut was also renovated. Now, it was the address of the person with the highest status on the entire Divine Land — Li Mu's mother.
Of course, it was the Li Mu of this world.
However, that person had disappeared for too long. Li Mu had searched for and deduced several times, but he still couldn't find any clues. So, his mother had been living in the Knife Hut.
Li Mu's mother used to be blind. But now, she had recovered her power.
She was accompanied by Hua Xiangrong, Shangguan Wan 'er, and the other women Li Mu bought from the Musical House in Chang' an City. Several of them were already married, but they often came to the Knife Hut to serve Li Mu's mother.
When Li Mu arrived at the gate of the Knife Hut, Li Mu's mother, Hua Xiangrong, and the others were already waiting at the door.
"Mother." Li Mu bowed.
Li Mu's mother was beaming.
It had been a long time. There was no need to get to the bottom of some things. She was also a smart woman.
"Darling." Hua Xiangrong said with a happy smile.
Li Mu supported Li Mu's mother and winked at Hua Xiangrong.
Hua Xiangrong suddenly blushed.
After they entered the Saber Hut, the crowd outside gradually dispersed.
For the people in Taibai City, every time Li Mu returned, it was a grand event, more exciting than the Spring Festival. Everyone was immersed in joy.
In the Knife Hut, after greeting Li Mu's mother, Li Mu left her room.
Soon, the hostess's exclamation came from Hua Xiangrong's room, and then some tempting and strange voices came. Shangguan Wan 'er, who was about to ask if dinner was needed, blushed when she heard the noise at the door. Then, she turned around and ran away.
The night passed quickly in a gentle and charming way.
Early the next morning, Ming Yue came bouncing.
"Sister Caicai sent me a message. She said that there are some changes on the Ghost Star Sacred Mountain, which caused all the ghost cultivators to change. They can't control themselves. Young Master, do you want to go and have a look?" Ming Yue handed a Messaging Jade Piece to Li Mu.
As soon as Li Mu heard that, he roughly knew what was going on.
It must have something to do with the inheritance of the Deathless Celestial Emperor.
After reading the Jade Piece, Li Mu understood.
He had to go to the Ghost Star immediately.
The mutation of the silver-mountain-like strange stone under the Bone Sacred Mountain was definitely related to the inheritance of the Deathless Celestial Emperor. Based on the clues on the dark golden piece of paper, Li Mu could basically confirm that the legendary Deathless Celestial Emperor was probably under the silver-mountain-like strange stone.
Back then, the Deathless Celestial Emperor refined the List of Deification, a divine object that could preserve the souls of kings, and created the God Race. On the Ghost Star, the dead souls could also survive. It could be said that the two had the same effect. Li Mu didn't believe that there was no connection between the two.
If he could directly get the inheritance of the Deathless Celestial Emperor before the major races and forces of the Chaotic World arrived, it would be the best situation. But Li Mu also knew that it would be very difficult. He was afraid that by this time, those people had already arrived in the Ziwei Star Zone.
"Where is Qing Feng?" Li Mu asked casually.
Ming Yue picked up a cucumber from the vegetable pot in the yard, chewed it, and said, "Brother Qing Feng has some problems in cultivation these days. His breath is a little chaotic, so every morning, he has to practice the Xiantian Skill to consolidate his realm. I guess he is cultivating now."
"There's a problem in cultivation?" Li Mu was stunned.
The cultivation method that Qing Feng practiced was the Xiantian Skill that he taught him. It was said that this Cultivation Method came from Ye Qingyu, the Imperial God Emperor. It was the most pure and pure Cultivation Method. There would never be any symptoms such as Qi Deviation. How could there be a problem?
"Let's go and have a look."
Li Mu said.
He happened to have something to talk to Qing Feng and Ming Yue about.
"Okay." Ming Yue grabbed another cucumber for herself and skipped behind Li Mu.
A moment later.
In Qing Feng's villa.
After Li Mu checked Qing Feng's condition, a puzzled look appeared on his face.
"His internal qi is running, and his meridians are full. There's nothing wrong with him."
But Qing Feng's complexion was not very good. He looked a little sick, just like an ordinary person with a fever. His face was red, and when he panted, there was a hoarse voice in his throat.
"Maybe I've been too tired recently."
Qing Feng did not care much about it, so he explained.
Although he was young, he played an important role in the Taibai Empire on the Divine Land. Many military and state affairs and local decrees had to go through Qing Feng's hands. Everything was complicated and cumbersome, so it was very exhausting for him to handle it.
"It happens every morning. Is it normal after noon?" Li Mu asked.
Qing Feng nodded.
Li Mu frowned, feeling that things might not be so simple.
