"How dare you! Do you want to rebel?" Bai Rushuang was shocked in her heart, and then she sneered and said, "How can you say such disgraceful words? Do you still want to resist at this point? Haha, you can try and see if you can walk out of Huining City alive. "
A powerful aura diffused out from Bai Rushuang's body.
He was carrying an Emperor weapon with him.
At the same time, there was a frightening Emperor aura coming from the military building in the distance. The elements of the power of thunder and lightning were rolling, and the pressure was strong, like purple clouds covering the sky. It was obvious that it was the Thunder Ancestor of the Thunder Path Ancestral Mountain.
The old faker had previously released his Emperor-level aura in an attempt to reverse the decision of the Council of Ten Elders. This had caused the Thunder Path Ancestral Mountain to be prepared, and several Martial Emperors were watching the Bright Night Bureau. Once the old faker attacked without any regard for anything else, they would have no choice but to act.
That was why Bai Rushuang dared to come even though he knew the old faker was in the Bright Night Department.
Li Mu heaved a sigh.
The military headquarters of the Human Race was really disappointing.
In that case, then …
The corner of Li Mu's mouth drew a smile.
In the main hall of the Bright Night Department, the old faker's aura suddenly soared.
Xiao Ruyi, Yelu Hui, and Wu Luyi, the three division leaders, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and their hearts were in their throats.
Was an Emperor war about to break out?
With a single thought from an Emperor, lives would be plunged into misery and suffering. It was even possible for the holy city to be destroyed.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Bai Rushuang sneered.
This was the scene that he had been looking forward to. If Li Mu thought that he could dominate the world by relying on a Martial Emperor, then he was gravely mistaken. He would only be courting death. This was a good opportunity to properly get rid of this thorn in his side.
"Do it."
Bai Rushuang waved his hand and was about to launch an attack.
Just then —
"Stop! Wait a minute. "
A loud shout came from the direction of the military building in the distance.
Another messenger boat cut through the void at an extremely fast speed. A middle-aged man with a lean face stood at the head of the boat. He was gentle and elegant, and had an extraordinary temperament. He said loudly, "Wait, the Ten Elders of the military headquarters have given the order. Wait a minute."
It was Zhuge Yun.
"What are you doing here? Zhuge Yun, you still don't want to give up. Do you still want to absolve this daredevil? "Bai Rushuang snorted when she saw Zhuge Yun.
These days, Zhuge Yun had been running around for Li Mu.
Zhuge Yun ignored Bai Rushuang and directly said to Li Mu, "Minister Li, the situation has changed. Don't do anything. Please be patient for the time being. Don't make a mistake and cause everlasting regret."
"Oh," Li Mu said lightly, "What's the change?"
Zhuge Yun said, "It should be a good thing. The final conclusion has not been decided yet. I came first to stop Bai Rushuang."
Then, he turned his head to look at Bai Rushuang and said, "The Ten Elders Association has issued an order. The previous decision will be withdrawn for the time being and we will discuss it again. You are not allowed to attack the Bright Night Department."
"What?" Bai Rushuang's expression changed greatly, and she said sternly, "Zhuge Yun, how dare you falsify the Top Ten's decision in order to absolve Li Mu? Do you want to die?"
Zhuge Yun said indifferently, "I knew you would say that."
He raised his hand.
A white scroll, about three inches long, flew up, releasing light. It was the symbolic aura of the Top Ten Elders Association. It floated in the void, and the words written on it were exactly what Zhuge Yun had just said. The previous first decision was withdrawn for the time being and reconsidered.
Bai Rushuang's expression changed several times. He was full of hatred, but he did not dare to attack again.
Xiao Ruyi and the others were relieved.
Although the Top Ten Elders Association suddenly withdrew the decision after it was issued, which was unprecedented, this white scroll was not fake. It was undoubtedly issued by the Top Ten Elders Association. The matter was confirmed. At least there was no need to do anything now. After all, the Emperors' war was too terrible. Once they started, they might become cannon fodder.
Bai Rushuang's eyes were fixed on the white scroll, and his teeth were almost broken.
How could this happen?
It was clearly decided. The Top Ten Elders Association supported the Thunder Tao Ancestral Mountain. Why did it suddenly withdraw the decision? Could it be that something else had happened? Impossible. Everything that should be taken into account had been taken into account.
Without the support of the Top Ten Elders Association's decision, even if he wanted to kill Li Mu now, he had to bear it.
Otherwise, he would be courting death.
"I'll let you live a little longer, but you can't escape death." Bai Rushuang stared at Li Mu with eyes as cold as ice.
Li Mu looked indifferent.
On his face, there was neither the anxiety of his life hanging by a thread, nor the joy of narrowly escaping death. It seemed that everything had nothing to do with him.
A moment later, about half an hour had passed.
The third dispatch boat flew from the direction of the Military Headquarters and instantly arrived above the Mingye Department.
Countless people's eyes were focused on the bow of the boat.
A middle-aged man in a black suit with thick black hair stood at the bow of the boat.
The man's face was angular, and there was a scarlet pattern like a question mark between his eyebrows. He had an oval face, sword-like eyebrows, and starry eyes. He was full of sharp, serious, and cold aura. Even if the experts and soldiers of the three tribes glanced at him, they felt as if there were sharp swords piercing their eyes.
"It's him?"
As soon as Bai Rushuang saw it, she suddenly had a bad feeling.
When Zhuge Yun saw him, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"The final decision of the Top Ten Elders Association is that although Li Mu, the head of the Mingye Department, destroyed the Thunder and Fire Camp and killed more than 100 people, there was a reason for the incident. The main responsibility is not on him. He is ordered to resign from his position as the head of the Mingye Department and go to the Fallen God Abyss to reflect on his mistakes for half a year.
From then on, he is not allowed to enter the Military Headquarters or hold any military posts. "
The middle-aged man in black suit took out a white scroll, which was suspended in the air.
The golden handwriting on the scroll was clearly visible. It was the final decision of the Top Ten Elders Association. It was attached with the aura of the representatives of the Holy Lands, which could not be forged. Bursts of powerful aura circulated, showing the majesty of the Top Ten Elders Association as the highest decision-making level of the Human Clan Military Headquarters.
"What?" Bai Rushuang's face changed dramatically and he roared, "This is impossible! Resign from military posts and reflect on his mistakes for half a year? What kind of punishment is this? Did the two successors of our Thunder Tao Ancestral Mountain die in vain? I don't accept it. "
How could this be the result?!
He couldn't accept it.
The voice of the middle-aged man in black suit was like two swords rubbing against each other. He looked at Bai Rushuang and said indifferently, "Lin Yuquan and Bai Ruyun coveted the Emperor Treasure, secretly set up a trap, killed the descendants of the former head of the Mingye Department, and killed Li Shang, one of the four sword operators of the Mingye Department. They caused trouble first and deserved to die."
"What did you say?" Bai Rushuang's expression was like a volcano erupting under the ice.
The middle-aged man in black suit was expressionless, "Am I wrong?"
The hatred and anger in Bai Rushuang's heart almost completely drowned him.
But the last trace of reason made him restrain the impulse to attack. He said, "Well, Sword Maniac, I will remember what you said today."
The middle-aged man in black suit was the second strongest of the seven swords in the Hidden Sword Sea, Sword Maniac. He was second only to the Sword King, but above the Crazy Sword Sword. It was said that this man's swordsmanship was superb, and his swordsmanship was exquisite. He was not inferior to the Sword King, but his cultivation had reached the Quasi-emperor Realm.
"Do as you wish," Sword Maniac said indifferently.
Bai Rushuang turned to Li Mu and said, "The hatred of killing my brother is absolutely irreconcilable. Li Mu, in half a year, you will definitely meet me in the Holy War Arena. At that time, I will make you die without a burial place. Let's see who can protect you in the Holy War Arena."
Li Mu said, "Really? I am also looking forward to it. "
"Wait and see. I will kill you." Bai Rushuang turned into a flowing light and left with hatred.
The atmosphere suddenly became much more relaxed.
"Second brother." Crazy Sword floated in the air and saluted to the middle-aged man in black suit.
Sword Maniac nodded, and then looked at Li Mu, saying, "Seventh brother."
Li Mu came to his senses, and a smile appeared on his face. He flew to the front of the dispatch boat and bowed respectfully, saying, "Thank you, Second brother."
"Well, this time, you've managed to avert the danger. Needless to say, there's no need to tell me how dangerous it was. Big brother told me to tell you that he's sorry, but this is as far as he can go." When Jian Kuang looked at Li Mu, the lines on his face softened.
Li Mu smiled and said, "There is no such thing between brothers."
"The Top Ten Elders have made the decision. Big brother and the elders of the Holy Zhi Palace have other things to do, so it is not convenient for them to visit you. You have two hours to settle your affairs. After two hours, we will go to the Fallen God Abyss. You will suffer for the next six months," said Crazy Sword.
Li Mu nodded.
They landed and entered the hall of the Bright Night Department.
Two hours was not a short time. It was enough to arrange a lot of things.
Xiao Ruyi and the troops of the three divisions also retreated. The three leaders could finally wipe away the cold sweat that had formed on their foreheads. Their hearts, which had been hanging in their throats, could finally return to their stomachs.
In the hall of the Bright Night Department, the old faker had quietly left.
The matter was settled. The Top Ten Elders would not go back on their final decision. No one would attack Li Mu again, so he had to return to the East Star Village as soon as possible.
That place also needed someone to guard.
The host and the guest sat down.
Tea was served, and the fragrance of the tea was faint.
The atmosphere in the hall was much more relaxed.
"There is another matter that you need to decide on, Seventh Brother. Who will take over the position of the Chief of the Bright Night Department?" asked Crazy Sword.
Li Mu was stunned and said, "Huh? You're asking me? Shouldn't this be decided by the Top Ten Elders? "
Zhuge Yun smiled and said, "Haha, my young friend, you may not know this, but according to tradition, the former Chief has the right to nominate. Although you have been stripped of your position, the right to nominate is still in effect."
Li Mu did not know there was such a rule.
He thought about it and said, "In that case, I nominate Yun Shuangying."
"The little girl from the Yun family?"
Zhuge Yun and Crazy Sword both reacted and were a little surprised.
Li Mu nodded.
"She has just started cultivating. Her strength is not enough, right?" Zhuge Yun said in surprise.
They all knew about the situation of the Yun family.
If the old lady of the Yun family and Yun You's wife stopped hiding, they would be considered masters. Yun Shuangyan was talented, but she only had the foundation and did not cultivate. She might have a bright future, but it would take some time. As for Yun Shuangyan, she had been in a frozen state and had only woken up for a few days. Even if Yun Shuangying was nominated, it would be better than her.
Li Mu said, "That little girl has a good foundation, a steady mind, and a peerless talent that I have never seen in my life. She is far more talented than anyone else. She can be considered a Born Saint Body. One day of cultivation is equivalent to one year of cultivation for others. As long as she is trained carefully, she will become a peerless master in less than a year. If she can inherit the position of the Chief, it will be a cycle of succession."
The Heart of Stars played a part in this.
Yun Shuangying had been absorbing the Heart of Stars into her body since she was a child. She had endured decades of pain like a living dead, but it also made her unparalleled talent and the huge amount of Spiritual Qi accumulated in her body. Once she stepped onto the path of cultivation, she would definitely get better results with half the effort. It was not impossible for her to enter the Tao within a year.
Of course, Li Mu did not elaborate on this.
Jian Kuang nodded and said, "I will make a proposal, and the Ten Elders will review it."
He was one of the members of the Ten Elders and the spokesperson of Hidden Sword Sea in the Military Ministry. He had a lot of power. Since he was recommended by Li Mu, he would naturally find a way to make it happen.
In fact, those with a discerning eye knew that this time, the Thunder Dao Ancestral Mountain had gone to great lengths to frame Li Mu, and the real victim was Li Mu. As a result, the Ten Elders almost killed Li Mu. It was the Military Ministry that owed Li Mu.
While they were talking, Duan Di came in and reported, "Chief, Your Excellencies, a guest from the Demon Clan has come to visit."
Li Mu was quite surprised and said, "Please."
Soon, a snow-white old ape came into the hall under Duan Di's lead.
The old ape was burly and about two meters tall. He stood upright and wore a green robe. His exposed hair was as white as snow. His face retained the obvious features of the ape clan, but he had a kind of awe-inspiring majesty. A noble aura naturally flowed around him. He had a smile on his face, and his demonic aura was faintly discernible. It was extremely pure, like a nebula abyss. His cultivation was unfathomable.
Jian Kuang, Jian Kuang, and Zhuge Yun's expressions changed, and they all stood up in an instant.
Li Mu sensed the subtlety of this.
He saw the three experts of the Human Clan cupping their hands in greeting at the same time.
Although they belonged to different clans, the relationship between the Human Clan and the Demon Clan was not bad. Moreover, the background of the old ape in front of them was too great. The three of them should not be disrespectful.
"The Emperor of the Ape Clan has come in person. What a surprise." Jian Kuang turned to Li Mu and introduced, "This is His Majesty, the Snow Ape Demon Emperor of the ape race. Previously, in the meeting of the Ten Elders, the emissary of the ape race conveyed the will of the emperor of the ape race to plead for you. But, I didn't expect that even His Majesty, the Snow Ape Demon Emperor, would come to Huining City in person."
The Emperor of the Ape Clan interceded for me?
Li Mu was surprised.
He did not have a particularly deep friendship with the Ape Clan. Especially in the Immortal Celestial Tower, he did not find the person the Ape Clan was looking forward to. But the Emperor of the Ape Clan, as a martial arts emperor, actually interceded for me. Could it be because … Li Mu looked back at Yuan Hou behind him.
And at this time, the Snow Ape Demon Emperor's eyes were also fixed on Yuan Hou. His eyes were bright, and there was a hint of gratification.
—
"Tell me, what's going on at the meeting of the Ten Elders?"
On the Thunder Path Ancestral Mountain, Bai Rushuang's roar shook the sky, causing the thunder clouds to tumble.
The other successors, in the face of the eldest senior brother's anger, were also afraid.
The Thunder Ancestor lived in seclusion. Most of the time, Bai Rushuang, as the eldest senior brother, taught on behalf of his master. In the Thunder Path Ancestral Mountain, he was highly respected and extremely dignified.
"Eldest senior brother, man proposes, God disposes. Li Mu was about to die, but all of a sudden, the Ape Clan, the Tiger Clan, and the Beast Clan of the Demon Clan all sent messengers here at the same time, conveying the will of the Beast Clan martial arts emperor and interceding for Li Mu." Huang Chengjin, the fourth successor, said with a helpless smile.
"What? These bastards! " Bai Rushuang was shocked at first, and then immediately said angrily, "But how can these alien races interfere in the internal affairs of our Human Clan? Did the Ten Elders decide to let Li Mu go because of the words of these alien races? "
Huang Chengjin said with a wry smile, "If it's just an ordinary alien race, we naturally don't have to care, but the Ape Clan and the Tiger Clan are the major branches of the Demon Clan, and their messengers conveyed the will of their Martial Emperors. As for the weight of the Beast Clan, we can't ignore it, especially the tough wording... The three major foreign Martial Emperors have spoken together, the Ten Elders have to consider the meaning behind it."
Bai Rushuang was furious when he heard this.
Huang Chengjin added, "Not only that, at the last moment, even the Pure Yang Palace of the Ten Holy Lands also sent messengers to exonerate Li Mu."
"What? Pure Yang Palace? " Bai Rushuang was completely shocked, and couldn't help saying, "The Pure Yang Palace has not participated in the regular meeting of the Ten Elders for two hundred years, and they actually sent a successor?"
Huang Chengjin said, "That's right, Han Yue, the Hall Master of the Heavenly Sword Hall of the Pure Yang Palace, personally appeared with the last disciple of the current Pure Yang Palace Master, first to declare his identity as a successor, and second to support Li Mu. In this way, even if we don't consider the will of the foreign Martial Emperors, within the Ten Elders, those who support Li Mu, have already tied with us."
Bai Rushuang was stunned, and didn't speak for a long time.
It turned out that after he left the main hall of the Ten Elders, such a thing actually happened at the meeting?
But, why did such a thing happen?
The Pure Yang Palace, which had been sealed for two hundred years, actually broke the convention and also supported Li Mu?
It shouldn't be.
He thought about it and felt that it was inconceivable.
"Who is the successor of the Pure Yang Palace?" Bai Rushuang asked.
Huang Chengjin said, "It's a blind Taoist priest. He looks very young, and I have never seen him before. He seems to be a new disciple of the Pure Yang Palace."
"A blind young Taoist priest?" Countless names flashed through Bai Rushuang's mind, but he couldn't match such an image. He said, "The Pure Yang Palace breaking the seal must have something to do with this successor. Order our spies to thoroughly investigate this person."
"Yes," the divine bird in charge of intelligence said.
Bai Rushuang thought for a moment and said, "We also need to find out the relationship between Li Mu and these alien races, and why the great martial arts emperor of the alien races interceded for Li Mu."
"Yes."
Bai Rushuang waved his hand.
The other senior and junior brothers all left.
He stood where he was, frowning, as if he was thinking about something. Slowly, an irrepressible anger appeared on his face, and finally, it all turned into ferocious and fierce killing intent.
"Since I can't kill Li Mu this time, I have to make a fuss in the Holy War Arena."
No matter what, for public or private reasons, Li Mu deserved to die.
—
"What?"
The several experts in the hall all showed a look of disbelief and shock.
Yuan Hou's face was also filled with confusion.
Only Li Mu vaguely realized something, so his expression was not too exaggerated.
"This little brother has awakened the Great Sage bloodline, and is the candidate for the new emperor of our ape race. This time, I came to take our new emperor back." The Snow Ape Demon Emperor smiled and repeated what he had just said.
