Xiao Xiao understood one thing very well.
No matter who it was, no matter what the situation was, when he said 'I still trust you', it meant that his trust in him had silently begun to waver.
Xiao Xiao also knew that he had followed the new Emperor for many years and had done many things, so he knew many dark spots. Once the new Emperor wanted to cut off the dark side of the past and establish a new image for himself, then his end would probably not be good.
But this was too much of a rush.
Once the cunning hare was killed, the hound would be cooked.
But now, the hare was not dead yet, and the hound was already cooked?
No, there was another explanation. Perhaps the new Emperor had found a more suitable "hound."
Mu Mu's figure appeared in Xiao Xiao's mind.
The new Emperor's trust in this person was a little too much.
At that time, what was his motive for helping the new emperor and taking this person under his banner?
He had thought that Mu Mu was only a martial artist.
But now, it seemed that he was not just a martial artist.
He was about to be replaced by Mu Mu.
This kind of speed was something that even he himself had never imagined.
Countless thoughts flashed through Xiao Xiao's mind.
At this moment, the new Emperor spoke slowly, "Yes, this is a serious matter. Let's go. Follow me to the posthouse. I will personally appease the Dongxuan Immortal Gate."
"Yes, Your Majesty," Xiao Xiao said.
The new Emperor changed into a royal robe with the help of the palace maids.
He suddenly felt a little tired.
When he climbed a mountain, he envied the height.
But when he reached the peak, he felt that it was too cold at the top.
When he left the bedchamber, it was already late at night.
Silence.
The new Emperor suddenly asked, "Where is Commander Mu?"
The captain of the guards beside him quickly answered, "Commander Mu just finished his third patrol. He should be cultivating in the office now."
"Hmm? Isn't there only three patrols in a night? Is it over already? "The new Emperor frowned in surprise.
The guard captain said, "That was indeed the rule in the past, but Commander Mu said that now that His Majesty has a new treasure, everything has to start from the beginning, so safety is the most important thing. Thus, the rules have been changed. We have to patrol six times a night, and every time, we have to personally lead people to patrol. We don't dare to neglect anything."
"Oh, he really is considerate."
Hearing this, the new Emperor felt a trace of warmth in his heart.
If everyone was like Mu Mu, who did not ask for credit or rewards and just did things quietly, the Extreme Emperor Cliff wouldn't have to worry about rising again.
This was a person who truly did practical things.
"Go invite Commander Mu to come with me to the posthouse area."
…
The posthouse area.
In the Dongxuan Immortal Gate.
In the Dongxuan Immortal Gate's hostel.
The new Emperor Mu Mu Mu had a good relationship with the new Emperor.
However, the entire Dongxuan Immortal Sect was enraged.
The deceased was called Wei Rulong, the great-grandson of the Great Elder of Dongxuan Immortal Sect.
"We, the Dongxuan Immortal Sect, demand an explanation for this." He was the younger brother of the Head Envoy, Wei Rulong. His name was Wei RuHu. He pointed at the face of the new Emperor of the Extreme Huang Cliff and said impolitely, "My big brother has such a high status. He has already given you enough face by attending your coronation ceremony. It is also a sign of his trust in the Extreme Huang Cliff. He pointed at the new Emperor's face and said unceremoniously, "My elder brother has shown enough respect by attending your coronation ceremony. But look at the result.
The new Emperor's expression changed.
He turned to look at Xiao Xiao with a questioning look in his eyes.
He turned to Xiao Xiao, questioning him.
"Didn't you say it was an assassination?
Why was there poison? "
Xiao Xiao was shocked.
"How could it be?" He asked in a trembling voice. "Young Master Wei, it's not right. Didn't you say it was an assassin? How come it was poisoned again? "
Wei Ruhu said harshly, "This is the most despicable thing you can do. You poisoned my elder brother first and then he was killed … I'm warning you. You'd better give me an explanation. Otherwise, the Dongxuan Immortal Gate will start a war with the Extreme Emperor Cliff."
"About the poisoning, do you have any evidence?" Li Mu suddenly asked.
He was also curious.
He did kill Wei Rulong.
At that time, Yuan Hou assumed Li Mu's appearance and led the imperial guards on night patrol, while Li Mu went out of the imperial palace and directly killed Wei Rulong, the messenger of the Dongxuan Celestial Sect.
The thing was, he didn't poison Wei Rulong.
Wei Ruhu took a look at Li Mu. He knew he was the most trusted man of the new emperor.
But he didn't take him seriously. He snorted and said, "My elder brother was bleeding from his seven apertures. The poison entered his heart and his Dantian was black. He was poisoned by the Inky Jade Crown, a secret poison of the Extreme Emperor Cliff. The evidence is conclusive. Do you think I will frame you?"
After a round of examination.
The new emperor's face was gloomy, as if he was covered with frost.
Wei Rulong's body was indeed poisoned by the Inky Jade Crown.
His fatal wound was a wisp of creepy Broadsword Intent, which shattered his Sea of Consciousness, heart, Dantian, and Primordial Spirit.
The problem was troublesome.
No matter what the fatal wound was, the Inky Jade Crown was hard to explain.
This was the secret poison of the royal family of the Extreme Emperor Cliff. There was no other branch.
"Investigate."
The new emperor looked at Xiao Xiao with a frosty face.
Xiao Xiao's heart was already indescribably shocked to the extreme.
Things were much more complicated than he had imagined.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
He bowed and said.
Turning around, Xiao Xiao said to Wei Rulong, "Young Master Wei, I'm afraid that someone with ulterior motives has schemed in the dark to sow discord between Huangji Cliff and Dongxuan Celestial Sect. Think about it, if Huangji Cliff wanted to kill Young Master Wei Rulong, why would we need to use the poison of the Inky Jade Crown? Wouldn't we be exposing our own identity? "
"This..." Wei Ruhu hesitated for a moment before replying, "What you said makes sense. But no matter what, the fact that the other party died in your Extreme Emperor Cliff means that you have to bear some responsibility for this matter."
Xiao Xiao nodded and said, "Of course. Don't worry, I will investigate this matter thoroughly and give the Dongxuan Immortal Sect an explanation."
Wei Ruhu gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, I will give you three days. If you can't find anything within three days, I will bring my elder brother's corpse back to the Dongxuan Immortal Sect. When my grandfather gets angry, things won't be so simple."
While they were talking —
Rumble!
Rumble!
Suddenly, there was a loud explosion from afar, followed by a series of screams and angry roars.
Majestic energy exploded.
The strange explosive energy light wave was unusually dazzling in the night sky.
"What's going on?"
The new Emperor was enraged. He looked to the side as if a volcano was about to erupt.
A moment later, a guard came to report.
"Your Majesty, an assassin attacked the Solitary Sword Sect's posthouse. He killed dozens of Solitary Sword Sect disciples and escaped …" The guard's voice was trembling.
This was right under the nose of the Emperor.
Something like this had happened.
"What? How could something like this happen? "
The new Emperor was enraged.
He looked at Xiao Xiao.
At this moment, Xiao Xiao's heart was filled with shock and anger.
He was in charge of receiving the envoys from the immortal sects and forces, as well as the related security. For the new Emperor, inheriting the throne and gaining the recognition of the major forces was the most important thing. It was even more important than gaining the allegiance of the major and minor forces in the imperial court.
But now …
The envoys of the major forces were attacked one after another.
Not to mention, they were from major forces like the Dongxuan Immortal Sect and the Solitary Sword Sect.
"Your Majesty, this … I … I don't know. I'll go and find out right away."
Xiao Xiao could vaguely feel that a huge conspiracy was slowly unraveling.
Maybe it was not just for him.
He was just the first to bear the brunt.
…
…
"Who poisoned him?"
Li Mu had been thinking about this question since he returned to the Happy House.
No wonder Wei Rulong's resistance was weak when he took action, even weaker than a fairy. It turned out that he had been poisoned before he took action.
In other words, even if he did not take action at that time, Wei Rulong would soon be poisoned to death.
What was the purpose of the person who assassinated Wei Rulong?
Li Mu felt that this matter was very strange.
A moment later, Yuan Hou quietly returned.
"Young Master, the Solitary Sword Sect was prepared. They only killed a few ordinary disciples. Jian Xue, the envoy of the Solitary Sword Sect, was slightly injured, but not killed."
Yuan Hou said with a guilty look.
Li Mu patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter. Our purpose has been achieved. The major forces have been estranged from each other. We just need to find a chance to add fuel to the fire. Well, speaking of which, it is said that Jian Xue was already at the peak of the Genuine Immortal Realm ten years ago. Since you could hurt him under the heavy guard, I'm afraid you have already entered the Banished Fairy Realm, right?"
Yuan Hou's strength was growing rapidly.
With Li Mu's unlimited supply of fairy crystals, Yuan Hou's cultivation had already reached the early stage of the Banished Fairy, and he could fight against all the experts under the Golden Immortal Realm.
Such a speed of growth was slightly inferior to Li Mu's.
However, it was still absolutely shocking.
In particular, Yuan Hou was proficient in the Ultimate Yin and Nine Mysteries, which could transform into Li Mu's appearance. Cooperating with Li Mu, any assassination could be a perfect alibi, which could be said to be flawless.
"Next, we will temporarily stabilize the situation for two days. You stay in the Happy House to practice in seclusion, and try not to show your strength in front of others. I will go to the imperial palace to be on duty. If there is any action, just let Little Nine or Stupid Tiger contact you."
After that, Li Mu left the Happy House.
But to his surprise, less than a hundred meters away from the Happy House, he was entangled by someone again.
"Hee hee, Young Master Mu, what a coincidence! We meet again."
On the street, Xia Jing, the Blissful Fairy, was dressed in a green palace dress. Like a fairy of plants, she was pure and beautiful to the extreme. Her big crescent-moon-shaped eyes were fixed on Li Mu, and her face was full of smiles.
Li Mu frowned slightly.
"You are really haunting me."
Li Mu stopped and looked at the beautiful woman who was as beautiful as a ripe peach. He said, "I remember that I've already warned you once."
Xia Jing's face was full of slyness.
Like a willow swaying in the wind, she swayed gracefully toward Li Mu. As the fragrant wind caressed his face, she pretended to be afraid and aggrieved. "No, Young Master, you warned me twice. The first time, you warned me that if the thirteenth prince still sent people to assassinate Ouyang Yi, you would kill him. But later, you told me that it was just a bluff. So, the second time you warned me to stay away from you, wasn't it just a bluff?"
A trace of impatient killing intent surged between Li Mu's eyebrows.
Like a frightened rabbit, Xia Jing hurriedly jumped away and said, "Young Master, why do you hate me so much? This servant is only looking for you to discuss a little cooperation. "
Deep in Li Mu's eyes, a shrewd light flashed.
"Get lost. Any cooperation is not attractive to me. "Li Mu's tone was cold, and he turned to leave.
Xia Jing smiled faintly, and the corners of her mouth drew a beautiful and sly curve. She said, "For example, the person who poisoned Wei Rulong to death. Young Master, are you not interested in knowing?"
Li Mu halted his steps.
