In the splendid hall.
It was extremely luxurious.
"You look like a nouveau riche in this outfit."
Li Mu looked at Dongfang Yeren's golden royal robe, cloud boots, and crown, and couldn't help but curse inwardly. Why did all the top figures in the secular world and the immortal world like this kind of yellow?
"How dare you talk to me like that?"
Dongfang Yeren stood in front of the throne and looked down at Li Mu. Thunderclouds swirled in his eyes, and he looked very dignified.
Li Mu crossed his arms and said disdainfully, "Alright, alright, I've checked everything. There's no one inside or outside the hall."
"You …" Dongfang Yeren didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He rubbed his forehead helplessly. "Even if there's no one else, I can't be too careless."
Li Mu forced himself to bow and said, "Is it not safe in this central palace?"
Dongfang Yeren walked down the steps of the throne with a smile and said, "Don't worry, it's absolutely safe here. I was just joking with you just now."
As a Great Immortal Master, his daily residence must have been inspected and refined. If he couldn't even guarantee his privacy in these places, it would really be a joke.
"You brat, you're really bold. The Young Immortal Master hasn't even settled down yet, and you're already looking for trouble with the Demon Subduing Pavilion. Tell me, what are you thinking?"
As Dongfang Yeren spoke, he casually threw a fruit to Li Mu.
"A thousand-year-old purple ginseng fruit?" Li Mu took a bite. The fragrance lingered in his mouth, and a faint medicinal effect melted in his mouth. He couldn't help but be speechless. "How extravagant! You're eating this kind of immortal medicine like a fruit."
After taking a few more bites, Li Mu said, "You can't blame me. It was Jue Tian who jumped out to find trouble with me. He wanted to kill me at the slightest disagreement, so I had to make the first move. By the way, you're already a Great Immortal Master. Everyone knows that I'm now your number one henchman. Why did the Demon Subduing Pavilion still dare to attack the Immortal Court of the Moon River Prefecture? A big dog has to look at its master. "
Dongfang Yeren sat down on the steps of the hall without a care for his image. "My predecessor was from the Demon Subduing Pavilion."
"Dugu Anran?" Li Mu said in surprise.
Dongfang Yeren nodded and said, "The Demon Suppressing Pagoda is very powerful in the East Sage Continent. They have deep roots and deep foundations. Dugu Anran died in an accident, and the Demon Suppressing Pagoda was caught off guard by me. The position of the Grand Immortal fell into my hands. Naturally, they were not willing to accept it. They sent me to the headquarters of the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals to report on my new post. They secretly made a move against you because they wanted to get something out of you and pull me down from my position."
Li Mu said, "That's not very kind of you. You're not qualified to be the boss, yet you didn't tell me in advance. I was nearly tricked by that old fellow Jue Tian."
Dongfang Ye Ren said, "Didn't I send He Yingxin? With him and the hundred elites around, you won't have to worry about your life. Besides, no matter how cunning a hunter is, how can he beat a good fox like you? You've always been the one scheming against others. When has anyone ever schemed against you? "
Li Mu ate three purple jade ginseng fruits in a row and said, "I'll take that as a compliment … By the way, I'm going to make a move against the Demon Suppressing Pagoda and rescue someone. Do you have any good suggestions?"
Dongfang Yeren rubbed his brows and said in surprise, "I've guessed that you're going to make a move against the Demon Suppressing Pagoda, but to rescue someone? Who is it? Is it … one of us? "
Li Mu said, "One of us. He's very familiar with Ye Qingyu."
Dongfang Yeren's expression suddenly turned serious as he asked, "Really?"
Ye Qingyu, the Imperial God Emperor, was one of the three magnates of the resistance army. Anyone who was familiar with him was definitely not an ordinary person. It was very likely that he was a pillar of the resistance army, like Fang Tianyi.
How could such a person be trapped in the Demon Suppressing Pagoda?
But why hadn't he received any news?
Li Mu said, "It's true. It's a demon cultivator imprisoned in the Thunder Prison."
A demon cultivator?
Countless names of demon cultivators in the resistance army emerged in Dongfang Yeren's mind. Coupled with the condition that he was familiar with Ye Qingyu, he still couldn't find a clue.
He thought for a moment and said, "The Demon Suppressing Pagoda is the backbone of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals. It is especially active in the Dongsheng Continent and has never been soft-hearted in persecuting the resistance army. I also have the intention to uproot this sect and make an example out of it to deter the other forces. The evidence you sent me can be of use."
Li Mu clapped his hands and said, "Then what are we waiting for? Why don't you summon the army now and let's kill them together?"
Dongfang Yeren was speechless. "How can I be so hasty?"
Li Mu said, "We can take our time to plan, but we can't delay the rescue. If you don't have any perfect protection in the short term, then we'll save the person first and then destroy the Demon Suppressing Pagoda."
Dongfang Yeren said, "Is this person very important to you?"
Li Mu said, "He's mine … I guess he's my master."
"Your master?"
Dongfang Yeren was a little surprised.
That answer surprised him.
Li Mu's background had always been very mysterious. Even he didn't know. It was a secret of the resistance army. Dongfang Yeren originally thought that Li Mu was a disciple secretly trained by one of the three magnates, but now it seemed …
He guessed wrong.
Since the person being suppressed was Li Mu's master, it explained why Li Mu was so eager to save the person.
"I'll figure it out." Dongfang Yeren said, "But I've come to see you today because I have another very important thing for you to do."
"What is it?" Li Mu asked.
Dongfang Yeren said, "There is a sect called the Southern Dipper Sect in the Soaring Eagle Prefecture of the 36 prefectures of the Dongsheng Continent. The scouts of the Punishment Department have found that it may have something to do with the resistance army. You should go there yourself."
Li Mu said, "The Southern Dipper Sect? If it has something to do with the resistance army … Do you want me to secretly protect this sect? "
Dongfang Yeren said, "The Southern Dipper Sect is also a big sect in the Dongsheng Continent. Although it's not as good as the Demon-subduing Pavilion, it has a profound foundation and is a veteran member of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals. It's hard to infiltrate it. As far as I know, the resistance army hasn't set up anything in the Southern Dipper Sect, so it's very strange."
"Could it be a trap?" Li Mu asked.
Dongfang Yeren shook his head and said, "I've carefully checked the files of the Punishment Department. The evidence is conclusive. Although I've asked the Central Chaotic Realm through secret channels, the news hasn't come back yet. If the Central Chaotic Realm really has set up something in the Southern Dipper Sect, we can't just sit back and do nothing. So I need you to go there in person and act according to the circumstances."
Li Mu thought for a moment and said, "Okay."
Dongfang Yeren said, "Remember, the situation is unclear now. Protect yourself first. If you can't do it, give up and go back. Now, your importance to the resistance army is second only to mine."
"Haha, old man, are you concerned about me? I'm a little touched. " Li Mu chuckled and said, "But don't forget what you promised me. Great Immortal Master, save my master as soon as possible. That's the best way to take care of me. Otherwise, when the matter of the Southern Dipper Sect is over, I'll have to go to the Demon-subduing Pavilion to save him myself. After all, no one can bear to see their master suffer all the time, can they?"
Dongfang Yeren was speechless.
That sounded like a threat.
What a headache.
Such a subordinate.
"By the way, is my life going to be constantly dealing with these kinds of chores in the future?" Li Mu was burping from eating the magic fruit. He asked, "Constantly putting out fires everywhere? Like the Southern Dipper Sect incident? "
Dongfang Yeren shook his head and said, "In the short term … yes. But these are just incidental. In the long term, we have to do something more important, something that can change the structure of the immortal world. That is our real goal and mission. "
Li Mu sensed that when Dongfang Yeren said those words, his expression was unprecedentedly solemn. In the depths of his eyes, there was an almost sacred light that flashed for a moment.
It seemed that he had discovered something extraordinary.
Li Mu said, "What is it? If I may say it now. "
Without hesitation, Dongfang Yeren said, "We need to find a key and open a door. Only then can we completely end the cruel and dark rule of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals and restore the immortal world to its previous state."
"A key?" Li Mu couldn't help but ask curiously, "When do we do it?"
Dongfang Yeren said, "It's still a long way off. With our current status, we still can't get in touch with the level of that key."
It was then that Li Mu was truly shocked.
Dongfang Yeren was already the Great Immortal Master of the Dongsheng Continent. His status was so high that even in the entire immortal world, he was at the top of the circle. Yet, he still couldn't get in touch with the level of that key?
"It's too early to talk about this now," Dongfang Yeren said. "Let's focus on the matter at hand first. You and I both need to go further."
Li Mu nodded. He wasn't a particularly curious person. He said, "Alright, I'll set off for the Southern Dipper Sect in the Soaring Eagle Mansion right now."
"So soon? As far as I know, there are many people on Meteor Island who want to hold a banquet to welcome you as the new head of the mansion, "Dongfang Yeren said.
Li Mu turned and walked out of the hall. He waved his hand and said, "I'm not here to make friends … Let's talk about it after I'm done."
A smile appeared on Dongfang Yeren's face.
Li Mu took a few steps and stopped. He turned and said, "By the way, I feel that … your strength has improved tremendously since the battle at the Siming Mountain Range. I can't understand it anymore."
Dongfang Yeren said, "Above the Immortal King, the peak of the Immortal Duke."
Li Mu's heart skipped a beat.
The Sect Master of the Heavenly Sect was a Immortal Duke, but he was far from being a match for Li Mu. They were both at the Immortal Duke level, but the Dongfang Yeren before him gave Li Mu a sense of extreme danger.
During the battle at the Siming Mountain Range, Dongfang Yeren was probably at the peak of the Immortal King level.
He probably used the Immortal Marrow to break through in such a short time?
"I'll bring He Yingxin with me."
With that, Li Mu left the Sun Shrine.
A smile appeared on Dongfang Yeren's face.
The resplendent hall symbolized the supreme power of the Dongsheng Continent. Meteor Island was also the center of power in the Dongsheng Continent. Being here, he should have been able to look down on all the other mountains. But because of his special identity, he always felt a sense of loneliness.
Li Mu's arrival had clearly made him feel warmth, as if he had found a friend.
…
…
In the Soaring Eagle Mansion.
As the number one sect in the territory, the Southern Dipper Sect was located in the Southern Dipper Mountain of the Sanshui Mountains. It had a history of ten thousand years. It had many disciples and experts. In the Soaring Eagle Mansion, it could be said to be a first-class hegemon.
"Junior Sister Hua, have you made up your mind?"
On the Green Bamboo Peak, a beautiful woman in a gorgeous purple dress, with a sneer on her face, urged as she looked at the graceful and beautiful woman in a long white dress who was leaning against the railing by a small lake beside the bamboo forest.
The woman in white was wearing a simple and unadorned robe. Her silky black hair was tied up with a coarse cloth and tied into a simple bun. However, there was a kind of shocking beauty to her. Especially when she slowly turned around, her face instantly stunned time, resplendent with an indescribable beauty. She was like a clear moon that emitted light, causing the entire bamboo forest to become holy.
The woman in the gorgeous purple dress was originally very beautiful and elegant, but compared to the peerless beauty of the woman in white, she suddenly looked as ordinary as a peasant woman picking wild vegetables by the roadside.
"I'm sorry, I can't promise you."
The woman in white slowly opened her mouth, her voice as gentle as the spring breeze blowing over the pond.
The face of the gorgeous woman in purple suddenly changed. She said, "Hua Xiangrong, you know very well how Master treats you. Now that Master is in trouble, you are so indifferent and unwilling to contribute?"
