"Hmm? What's going on? "
Wei Ruhu's expression changed.
"Go and find out."
He said warily.
Before he could finish his sentence.
Formation runes swirled in the void in front of them.
An illusory light green formation suddenly appeared. The bizarre and illusory power of the formation enveloped everything within a ten-mile radius, as if it had become a world of its own. It isolated Wei Ruhu and the rest of the Dongxuan Immortal Sect's envoys from the front of the formation, not a single one of them being spared.
Not good.
The expressions of all the Dongxuan Immortal Sect experts changed drastically.
There was an ambush.
There was danger.
However, although Wei Ruhu was a third-generation immortal, the Dongxuan Immortal Sect experts under him were extremely experienced. They immediately set up a formation in the air, guarding Wei Ruhu in the middle.
"Who is it? How dare you block the path of the Dongxuan Immortal Sect?
Show yourself! "the leading expert of the Dongxuan Immortal Sect bellowed.
He was in the prime of his life and was a peak Perfected Immortal. His cultivation base was profound, and his combat experience was extremely rich. As he bellowed, soundwaves rippled in all directions like ripples on the surface of a pond.
Soundwave positioning ability.
He was quietly searching for the person controlling the formation in the dark.
Swoosh!
A saber gleam appeared.
The saber gleam was like the wings of a cicada in the autumn wind. It seemed to be floating gently and powerlessly, without the slightest murderous intent or threat. However, in the next instant, it had already passed through the neck of the peak Perfected Immortal.
A line of blood appeared on his neck.
Then, the human head rolled down like a ripe watermelon.
The wind was still rustling.
The sound of cicadas was still faintly discernible.
The minds of all the experts of the Dongxuan Immortal Sect seemed to have frozen, and they lost their ability to think.
Instant kill.
"What?"
"Elder Wei..."
Cries of disbelief pierced through the silence.
They did not know how Elder Wei had died.
However, they were certain that he was really dead.
It was too terrifying.
Too terrifying.
What kind of being could possess such terrifying strength?
Instantly kill a peak Perfected Immortal before even seeing him?
Could it be an immortal general?
Wei Rulong, who was protected in the middle, was also shocked at this moment. A bad feeling welled up in his heart.
"The wind is blowing and the cicadas are chirping. Friend, do you hear that?"
The seemingly familiar voice rang out again.
Silence.
Two pieces.
Three pieces …
Dozens of cicada wings fluttered in the air like petals falling from a cherry blossom tree in spring. They curled up, sometimes high and sometimes low, sometimes left and sometimes right, without any pattern, as if their fate was completely out of their control, drifting with the wind.
Immense fear struck the hearts of the Dongxuan Immortal Sect experts.
Puff!
Pu pu pu!
There was the sound of a twig snapping.
There was the sound of paper tearing.
There was the sound of cloth being torn.
They were all extremely soft sounds.
In the past, such a voice was completely meaningless in the entire Immortal Dimension, and no one would pay attention to it.
However, at this very moment, Wei Ruhu felt as if a thunderclap was echoing in his ears.
This was because every time this sound rang out, it meant that a cicada blade had swept past, and it meant that an immortal from the Dongxuan Immortal Sect had died.
He saw the Dongxuan Immortal Sect experts protecting him fall one by one, unable to even struggle, dodge, or scream. Like cabbages being plucked from the ground, they fell silently one after another …
It was as if someone had pressed the mute button on the world.
The immense fear was like the hand of a devil, fiercely gripping his heart.
Ever since he was born, Wei Ruhu had never experienced such a terrifying scene. It was as if he had fallen into a terrifying nightmare, and no matter how he struggled, he could not break free.
In less than ten breaths, all the Dongxuan Immortal Sect experts around Wei Ruhu had been decapitated, collapsed, and dropped to the ground.
They could be considered the elites of the Dongxuan Immortal Sect.
However, even in death, they did not clearly see who the culprit was.
Wei Ruhu was the only one left in the vast illusion of the formation.
The fluttering cicada blade gleams were stained with immortal blood, becoming even more beautiful. They were like phoenix-tailed butterflies blooming in flames, carrying with them the aura of death, causing one's heart to palpitate.
Wei Ruhu's body was like a sieve, trembling madly.
He was about to go crazy from fear.
Death had never been so close to him before.
Any one of those blood-red cicada blade gleams would only need to flash once to make him bid farewell to this world.
"Who is it? Who are you? "
He roared hysterically.
"Come out, come out!"
He scanned his surroundings frantically.
Finally, a blurry figure slowly appeared from the depths of the void formation.
The face gradually became clearer.
It was a familiar face, but one that Wei Ruhu would never have thought of.
"It's you?" Wei Ruhu was in disbelief. "How could it be you?"
Because the person who appeared in front of him was Mu Mu, the person whom he had humiliated in front of everyone in the Extreme King Cliff. Mu Mu, the person whom he had seen as an ant and a bug, the person whom he thought he could squash to death anytime he wanted.
Just a moment ago, Wei Ruhu was still plotting how to kill Mu Mu.
At this moment, Mu Mu had really appeared in front of him. He had transformed into the most terrifying nightmare.
"Haha, why can't it be me?"
Li Mu's smile was tinged with sarcasm.
He slowly approached.
"Didn't you say you would make me die without a burial place?"
Li Mu was like a beast at the top of the food chain, mercilessly teasing and examining a defenseless prey.
"I... I..."
Wei Ruhu was so frightened that he could barely speak.
He couldn't believe it.
He couldn't understand it.
This guard commander of the new emperor of Huangji Cliff was just an ordinary Genuine Immortal, an insignificant figure. How could he be so terrifying? Did he conceal his cultivation?
With such strength, he would be at the level of the Highest Elder in Dongxuan Immortal Sect.
In the entire Yuechuan Mansion, he would be famous.
Why would he hide beside the new emperor of Huangji Cliff as a guard commander?
Did the new emperor know about it?
In an instant, countless thoughts subconsciously filled his mind.
However, Wei Ruhu quickly came to his senses. These questions had nothing to do with his current predicament at all.
The most important thing now was to stay alive.
Plop!
He directly knelt down in the void.
"I was wrong."
"I shouldn't have bullied you, shouldn't have been greedy..."
"Young Master Mu, Grandpa Mu, please spare me."
"As long as you spare me, I will promise you anything... I will definitely not reveal what happened today. Yes, the fairy crystals and immortal mines that the new emperor gave me as compensation... are all yours. I am willing to give you everything I have."
Wei Ruhu begged with tears and snot all over his face.
"You should have done this earlier."
Li Mu said flatly.
"Yes, yes, yes, I was blind. Grandpa Mu, just treat me as a fart and let me go..." Wei Ruhu desperately humiliated himself.
Li Mu smiled.
"In fact, even if you did not humiliate me that day, I would have come to kill you. From the moment you left Dongxuan Immortal Sect and became a member of this delegation, you were destined to die here today."
Li Mu looked down at him.
Wei Ruhu looked up in shock, his eyes gradually filled with despair.
"Why?" he roared in despair.
Li Mu raised his hand.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Swoosh! Swoosh! The cicada-like blade light floating in the air all fell into his hand like swallows returning to their nest. In the shimmer, they transformed into the Immortal-slaying Broadsword. The unadorned broadsword was thick and heavy, and the blade was as sharp as silk. Traces of blood slid down the blade.
"Because..."
The blade of the Immortal-slaying Broadsword swept past Wei Ruhu's neck.
"You all deserve to die."
Li Mu replied softly.
Wei Ruhu's head fell to the ground.
In the last moments of his life, he did not know if he heard Li Mu's answer. But the moment the broadsword light flashed, the look of horror and despair on his face made the arrogant and domineering face look extremely hideous.
Li Mu opened his Dharma Eyes and scanned the surroundings.
After making sure that all the experts of the Dongxuan Celestial Sect had been slaughtered, leaving no survivors, Primordial Spirits, and other life-saving secret methods, Li Mu began to clean up the battlefield.
Wei Ruhu carried the huge amount of wealth that the new emperor had compensated him with, as the great-grandson of the Great Elder of Dongxuan Immortal Sect.
It all belonged to Li Mu.
The resources of the other experts of Dongxuan, apart from the fairy weapons, amounted to more than 400 fairy crystals and hundreds of different types of immortal ores.
It all belonged to Li Mu.
Li Mu, who had been short of money, suddenly seemed to have become rich again.
He had the sense of justice of robbing the rich to help the poor.
Wei Ruhu and the others were rich.
They were poor.
There was nothing wrong with robbing the rich to help the poor.
After doing all this, Li Mu cleaned up the battlefield again. After leaving behind some very obscure and hard to detect clues, he removed the tactical deployment and left the area.
Peace returned to the world.
The ground below was stained with immortal blood.
The revenge of an avenger from the lower world whose home had been destroyed had just begun.
On the way back, Li Mu thought of slaughtering the envoy group of the Solitary Sword Sect. But later, he gave up on the idea.
It was not because of Li Mu's benevolence.
The Solitary Sword Sect was also the mortal enemy of the Chaotic World. They deserved to die.
But it suddenly occurred to Li Mu that with the current strength of Huangji Cliff, it could at most fight against an immortal force of the same level. If it fought against the Dongxuan Immortal Sect and the Solitary Sword Sect at the same time, it would not take long for Huangji Cliff to be destroyed. Then, his plan of killing with a borrowed knife would fail.
Two hours later.
Li Mu returned to the imperial city of Huangji Cliff and replaced Yuan Hou, who had assumed his appearance and was on duty in the palace. Everything was done in secret.
At the same time, in the Hall of Life and Spirit of the Dongxuan Immortal Sect, nearly 100 jade plates that symbolized the Life and Spirit of the elite disciples of the sect were all shattered and turned into dust.
Wei Ruhu was among them.
"The sky is falling."
The disciple guarding the Hall of Life and Spirit turned pale with fear, his legs trembling.
