"You?"
Li Mu looked at the pretty girl.
"She does have some guts."
"Junior Sister, don't beg him. If we die, let's die together." The young disciple who had been on Zhao Ling's side held his head high and said, "If worse comes to worst, let's fight him."
"That's right. Let's go together."
"The disciples of the Taibai Sword Faction will not be threatened."
The other disciples of the Taibai Sword Faction all shouted angrily.
Seeing that, Li Mu's opinion of the young swordsmen of the Taibai Sword Faction changed a little.
Although these young people were so stupid that they didn't even use their brains, at least they were not afraid of death. At this moment, they could still be so tough. They deserved to be a decent faction.
"Killing you is as easy as chopping melons and vegetables." Li Mu's mouth was unforgiving. "Since you all want to die, I'll fulfill your wish. Well, I heard you are the new generation of elite disciples of the Taibai Sword Faction. If I kill you, the Taibai Sword Faction will suffer a great loss."
"You …"
"Humph, our Taibai Sword Faction only has dead people with broken swords, not swordsmen on their knees."
Those young swordsmen, whose minds were full of hot blood and anger, were unyielding like raging bulls.
But Zhou Zhenhai, the outer school elder, seemed to have noticed something, so he kept quiet.
Li Mu laughed and said, "Sometimes death is easy. But living is really hard. You want to die? That's easy … Well, I'll fulfill your wish …"
Before his voice died away —
"If you want to kill, just kill me. I alone can replace all of them." Zhao Ling proudly held her head high like a swan and strode forward.
Boom!
Li Mu raised a hand, and a stream of energy exploded at her feet, creating a pit on the ground.
"Stop." Li Mu sneered, "Woman, what's the use of killing you? I'm going to silence you. Haha, you want to sacrifice yourself to save your fellow disciples. You think you're great, don't you? In my opinion, you're very stupid. I don't have any reason to agree to your request. "
Zhao Ling was stunned.
She wanted to refute Li Mu's words, but she suddenly didn't know what to say.
The other disciples of the Taibai Sword Faction were all infuriated. Someone roared and charged at Li Mu. He leaped into the air, pulled out his sword, and thrust it forward. His swordsmanship was quite exquisite.
However, in front of Li Mu, it was more like a joke.
With a wave of his hand, a surge of energy knocked all the incoming disciples into the air, causing them to fall to the ground. Their bodies went limp, rendering them immobile.
"Stop! Don't … don't kill my brother! You …" Zhao Ling was anxious.
Many people were born with a sense of self-sacrifice, just like Zhao Ling at that moment. She felt that the reason why her fellow apprentices were in danger was that she insisted on coming to the county government to get even with them. Moreover, she had repeatedly insulted Li Mu, which had infuriated the devil. Therefore, she had to figure out a way to get out of this hopeless situation.
"I can do anything, as long as you promise to let my fellow disciples go …" she said loudly.
Li Mu snickered to himself.
What a naive and stupid woman.
At the thought of the swan-like arrogant girl who had provoked and cursed him again and again, Li Mu decided that he would not let her off so easily.
He decided to teach the swan-like girl a lesson.
Therefore, he deliberately sized up the beautiful disciple of the Taibai Sword Faction from head to toe with a meaningful look. From her beautiful and delicate face, to her breasts, which propped up the swordsman uniform, to her slim waist and slender legs …
Li Mu had to admit that this female disciple of the Taibai Sword Faction had the looks and temperament of a fairy.
Zhao Ling held her head high, her neck as proud as a swan's.
Being stared at by Li Mu's undisguised eyes, she was infuriated. She had cursed Li Mu countless times with the most vicious words in her mind.
Li Mu snickered and said, "I can do anything? Hehe, doesn't that mean … "As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at her breasts.
"Despicable, shameless, obscene, lecher!" Zhao Ling's face flushed with anger. She was both ashamed and angry.
Li Mu snorted and said, "What? Despicable, shameless, and obscene? Lecher? Little girl, what are you thinking? Huh? What's going on in that little head of yours? How could such a young girl have such unhealthy thoughts? How could you train my body … I'm just considering letting you stay in the county government as a maid for a year. "
"You …" Zhao Ling was about to go mad.
She had never seen such a brazen person.
He was the one who was lascivious … But now he said she was a lecher.
"I promise you." Zhao Ling did not argue anymore. Otherwise, she would go mad. She put on a solemn and heroic posture and said, "I'll stay in the Taibai County government as a maid for a year. You let Elder Zhou and my other brothers go."
Li Mu smiled and said, "Hehe, I haven't promised you yet. You are so ugly. If you stay in the county government, you will ruin my mood. Why should I promise you?"
"You … Ahhhh!" Zhao Ling had an impulse to scream. She was about to go mad.
Since she was a little girl, many people, boys and girls, had been amazed by her beauty. In the entire Taibai Sword Faction, she was the most dazzling flower. But this devil Li Mu said she was ugly. Was he blind?
Li Mu rubbed his chin and said, "Fine, fine. Although you're ugly, since you're begging me so sincerely, I've decided to give you a chance. Tell me, what abilities do you have? What can you do for me if you stay here as a slave?"
Zhao Ling was so angry that her eyes were about to burst into flames. But the situation was beyond her control. She had to swallow her anger and said, "I'm the most talented swordsman among the younger generation of the Taibai Sword Faction. I can be your guard …"
Li Mu laughed and said, "Do you think I need your protection? Do you know how to wash clothes, cook, pour tea, and sew? "
"I … I don't know how to." Zhao Ling's voice was choked. She thought he was right. The swordsmanship she was so proud of was nothing in front of this devil.
"But at least I can help you block those small fries who don't know their limits." Zhao Ling gritted her teeth and added, "And I'm the youngest pharmacist in the Taibai Sword Faction. I'm good at medicine. If you're injured, I can treat you …"
"Pharmacist?"
Li Mu was stunned.
That did not occur to him.
The Taibai Sword Faction was a famous faction. The disciples trained by them could be called pharmacists. Their medical skills were definitely better than those barefoot doctors in Taibai County. Even the Living Bodhisattva might not be a match for the pharmacists of the Taibai Sword Faction.
Li Mu did not expect this proud little swan to be a pharmacist. That really made him look at her in a different light.
If there was a pharmacist to treat the injuries of Feng Yuanxing, Qing Feng, and the others, they might recover faster.
Especially Qing Feng, with the help of a pharmacist, he might have a higher chance of saving his legs.
That was really an unexpected gain.
To be honest, Li Mu had said so much just to annoy the little swan. Little did he expect that he would get such a piece of information. All of a sudden, he had an idea. "Why don't I detain the little girl and have her treat Qing Feng and the others?"
Anyway, those disciples of the Taibai Sword Faction had been cursing him for a long time. It was time for them to pay the price.
"Well, since you're begging me, I'll reluctantly agree." Li Mu nodded and put on a serious look.
Zhao Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But on second thought, she soon realized that she was forced to make the sacrifice. Why did she seem to be begging this devil?
"Senior Sister, don't …"
"Junior Sister, you can't. You're feeding the devil with your own body. You can't reform him."
"This guy is definitely up to no good. It's too dangerous for you to stay with him …"
The other disciples of the Taibai Sword Faction were all anxious.
They could not bear the fact that the most outstanding and beautiful young genius of their faction was in the clutches of Li Mu. Although it sounded like she was just a slave, the longer the delay, the more trouble there would be. What if the devil took advantage of her?
Especially some male disciples.
At the thought that the goddess they had been dreaming of was going to serve tea for Li Mu, those male disciples felt their hearts were about to break.
"Li Mu, you'd better think it through. You'll have to pay the price if you force the bright flower of our faction to stay with you. We, the Taibai Sword Faction, will not let you get away with it!" roared a male disciple.
Li Mu spread out his hands and said, "Whatever. If you regret, I'll send you to hell."
Hearing that, many disciples of the Taibai Sword Faction clamored to fight against Li Mu.
"Alright, you can all leave." Zhou Zhenyue, the outer yard elder who had been silent for a long time, finally broke the silence.
He looked at Zhao Ling and the other disciples and said calmly, "Since Zhao Ling has made up her mind, it's settled. Calm down. Don't let Zhao Ling's sacrifice be in vain. If you're not convinced, go back to the faction and practice hard. When your strength improves, as long as you defeat County Magistrate Li, you can take Zhao Ling back."
The young disciples all looked at Zhou Zhenyue in surprise.
They did not expect that Elder Zhou, who was the strongest among them and most likely to defeat the devil Li Mu, would make such a decision.
Li Mu was also a little surprised.
He had thought that the outer yard elder of the Taibai Sword Faction would strongly oppose the deal and even fight for the honor and dignity of the faction. After all, Zhou Zhenyue had shown a Master's bearing that was far superior to Wei Chong's. He was a charming expert.
Li Mu was ready to attack and defeat him.
But to his surprise, Zhou Zhenyue agreed without hesitation.
Was it because he was afraid of death and did not want to fight?
Absolutely not.
Li Mu was sure of that.
That white-haired elder's mind was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
Therefore, at last, Zhou Zhenyue left the county government with the other disciples of the Taibai Sword Faction.
Zhou Zhenhai also left with them.
Li Mu had a bad impression of that old man, and he had a vague feeling that he had something to do with the death of the disciples of the Taibai Sword Faction. But in the end, he did not mention it and let Zhou Zhenhai go.
For one thing, Li Mu had already killed Zhou Wu, who deserved to be punished for his crimes in Taibai County. So, there was no need for him to kill them all. After all, Li Mu was not the kind of person who believed that if he did not dig up the roots, the weeds would grow again when the spring breeze blew.
For another, Li Mu had reached a new height. He did not even care about the prison of the magistrate of Chang 'an. Therefore, he did not need to care about a nobody like Zhou Zhenhai. After all, he was a dragon soaring in the sky. Who would care about an ant on the roadside?
Zhao Ling stood where she was, alone, like a little white flower shivering in the cold wind.
Although she had mentally prepared herself, the stubborn little swan still felt a burst of uncontrollable fear and bewilderment when she saw her fellow apprentices and the elder had left.
Her heart was filled with frustration and sorrow.
At the same time, Zhao Ling secretly swore that if Li Mu had any improper thoughts about her, she would never let that perverted devil get what he wanted even if it cost her her life.
Li Mu did not pay attention to that proud girl.
His eyes fell on the other Jianghu people.
