Ding Minjun was also dumbfounded.
"What does he mean?"
"This man … he …"
"He's the chief of the Punishment Department of the Celestial Court?"
"No way!"
"Are you kidding me?"
"That's impossible!"
All the elders and experts of the Southern Dipper Sect were also scared out of their wits.
No matter how they thought about it, they came up with ten thousand possibilities. But never in their wildest dreams would they have imagined that this man that they did not take seriously was actually the powerful figure that the entire Dongsheng Continent had been discussing recently.
The chief of the Punishment Department of the Celestial Court!
He was a real top figure!
"It's over."
"We're completely screwed."
Even if the Southern Dipper Sect had a high status in the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals, they would still lose a layer of skin after offending such a figure.
Nan Dou Yi, the Sect Leader, wobbled and almost couldn't stand still.
He spat out three mouthfuls of blood as if he had been struck by lightning.
He had calculated everything, but he didn't expect Li Mu's identity to be so unimaginably terrifying.
The Six Lords of the Great Immortal Court were all peak level characters of the Eastern Saint Continent. Among them, the Lord of the Punishment Manor had the most authority. He could apprehend criminals, interrogate traitors, and investigate rebels. He was truly a person with special authority.
Over the years, countless people of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals had died in the Punishment Department.
For countless immortals, the Penal Department's prison was like a living hell. They could go in vertically and come out horizontally. It didn't matter if they were innocent or wronged, they would never come out alive once they were thrown into that place.
For the rebels, the army of the Department was the biggest deterrent. But for the people of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals, the special guards of the Punishment Department were like the King of Hell.
Usually, they couldn't wait to curry favor with them.
But today, they had provoked a figure like the chief of the Punishment Department.
Wasn't this the God of Longevity who was tired of living?
Even an old fox like Nan Dou Yi was at a loss.
"His Excellency is here. Why don't you pay your respects?"
He Yingxin shouted in a stern voice.
He didn't take these experts of the Southern Dipper Sect seriously. Even the Sect Leader of the Southern Dipper Sect was not a big deal in his eyes.
"Clatter!"
Everyone fell to their knees.
Some of the younger disciples were the first to tremble and couldn't stand.
Then, those elders, Guardians of Rules, and the like were all shrewd. They knew how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. They knelt in the air or on the ground, trembling, and did not even dare to raise their heads, for fear of being noticed by Li Mu.
Ding Minjun was completely overwhelmed by the fear in her heart.
She quietly retreated and hid in the middle of a group of disciples.
Thump!
Nandou and the others also knelt down.
Given his status, he didn't have to be so humble in front of Li Mu.
However, it was a pity that he had spoken too confidently and acted too ruthlessly today. If they really shed all pretenses of cordiality and refused to give in to each other, there was no doubt that the ones who would lose would be him and his group.
There was no harm in lowering his head.
"Milord, I …"
The Nandou and his people swallowed their pride and prepared to beg for mercy.
But Li Mu didn't even look at him.
Buzz buzz buzz!
The [Green Soul Purgatory Lamp] slowly flew up.
Floating in the sky.
The cyan mist even dyed the rising sun on the distant mountain into a light cyan color. The tide of light spread out inch by inch like cyan flowing water, and finally covered the entire sky.
A Primordial Spirit was pulled out from the ground.
"No …"
It was Guo Wei's Primordial Spirit, which let out a miserable cry.
His body was smashed by Li Mu with a slap, and his Primordial Spirit only managed to get out of the gravel after a great deal of effort. However, when he saw his master being punched by Li Mu, he was so scared that he went back again.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the [Green Soul Purgatory Lamp] appeared, his Primordial Spirit instantly lost control and was directly sucked into the wick.
Shrill cries came from the [Green Soul Purgatory Lamp].
No one could bear the pain of the Primordial Spirit being roasted.
Li Mu furrowed his brows and activated the magic to isolate the shrill screams of Guo Wei's primordial spirit, which sounded like ghosts and wolves howling.
But through the lampshade, the distorted face of the Primordial Spirit kept expanding and shrinking. Even a fool could tell that Guo Wei was suffering at this time.
No one in the Southern Dipper Sect dared to plead for Guo Wei.
"Guo Wei forced my wife to be Lv An's concubine and Taoist companion. He insulted me and launched a sneak attack in the chaos. I wonder if anyone in the Southern Dipper Sect has any objections to my punishment?"
Li Mu said slowly.
"We dare not."
The people of the Southern Dipper Sect all said that they dared not.
Li Mu smiled indifferently.
"But someone is even more abominable than Guo Wei. How dare he coerce a disciple of the Southern Dipper Sect and plot against my wife with the [Great Sorrow Paralysis]. What should we do about this?"
Li Mu said again.
It was time to settle the score.
Li Mu had never been a magnanimous person.
Ding Minjun, who was in the crowd, was instantly scared when she heard that. Her face was as pale as a sheet. She crawled out, trembling, and wailed, "Master, Master, please spare me, spare me …"
She banged her head on the ground as if she was pounding garlic. Her forehead started to bleed.
Li Mu sneered.
"Junior Sister Hua, please spare me. I won't do it again. Senior Sister Hua, I'm your senior sister after all. I even taught you martial arts …"
She wailed crazily.
A hint of pity flashed across Hua Xiangrong's beautiful eyes.
But she did not plead with Li Mu.
She did not want to embarrass Li Mu.
"Master, please spare my life. I'm willing to be your dog. You can do anything. I'm willing to pay everything …"
Ding Minjun wept bitterly and struggled in fear.
"Be my dog? Haha, do you think you deserve it?"
Li Mu flicked his fingertips.
A wisp of Broadsword Intent flew over.
Ding Minjun's body was instantly incinerated by the Solar True Fire.
Her Primordial Spirit was also sucked into the Cyan Soul Purgatory Lamp. Suffering horrible pain, she wailed and struggled silently, and her face was almost deformed.
At this time, everyone could see that the cyan lamp floating in the void was a rare and cruel fairy instrument of torture. Once one's Primordial Spirit was sucked into it, he would definitely suffer a fate worse than death.
It was rumored that the Great Leader of the Punishment Mansion was ruthless and cruel. He really deserved his reputation.
Under the cover of the cyan light, everyone in the Southern Dipper Sect was trembling as if it was the end of the world.
"Ding Minjun has offended her superiors and repeatedly insulted me. Does anyone from the Southern Dipper Sect have any objections to my punishment?"
Li Mu asked again.
His voice was clear and cold.
"We don't dare."
"We don't dare."
"This is how it should be."
Those elders and protectors said flatteringly.
Li Mu curled his lips.
"And you, you, you …"
Li Mu flicked his fingers continuously.
Wisps of Broadsword Intent flowed.
A dozen young disciples of the Southern Dipper Sect were swept by the broadsword light and instantly turned into smoke and ashes, dissipating in the void.
These were all people who had followed Guo Wei and Ding Minjun to threaten and frame Hua Xiangrong.
Li Mu did not spare any of them.
However, they were all accomplices, so Li Mu did not torture their Primordial Spirits. Instead, he directly destroyed their bodies and Primordial Spirits, which saved them a lot of pain and torture.
Some Divine Generals carried the throne of the Great Leader of the Punishment Mansion to the void.
Li Mu held Hua Xiangrong's hand and floated in the air. He sat on the throne and looked down at the tens of thousands of disciples of the Southern Dipper Sect kneeling on the ground.
A suffocating atmosphere pervaded the world.
The blue and cold soul light was everywhere, making people feel as if they were in hell.
"There is actually a rebel in the Southern Dipper Sect, and he is even a Tai Shang Elder. Haha, that's great. Leader of the Southern Dipper Sect, do you have anything to explain?"
Li Mu said slowly.
Nandou Yi's heart trembled, and he hurriedly said, "Sir, I've already ordered the Disciplinary Hall to investigate this matter. Apart from Nandou Xiongfeng, we've also found hundreds of suspected rebels. We will never tolerate these vile spawns. We're willing to hand them over to you, sir."
This was a countermeasure they had prepared.
However, in the current situation, it still had some effect. Even the Southern Dipper Sect was not sure.
"Haha, are you kidding me?"
Li Mu's lips curled into a cold and mocking smile.
"Hundreds of rebels have been found in the Southern Dipper Sect. Is your Southern Dipper Sect a nest of rebels? I have reason to suspect that the entire Southern Dipper Sect has been corrupted and become a secret camp of the rebels. "
Li Mu said.
The Southern Dipper Sect seemed to be gripped by an iron palm. He groaned inwardly and hurriedly explained, "Your Honor, please understand. The rebels are too cunning and impossible to guard against. But I believe that after this battle, the rebels in the entire Soaring Eagle Mansion have been eliminated. There will never be another rebel disaster. Lord Lv An, the Young Immortal of the Celestial Court in the Soaring Eagle Mansion, can testify for this."
When the name of Lv An was mentioned, the Southern Dipper Sect finally felt a little more confident.
As long as this Commander of Border-provinces testified for him, according to the plan prepared by the two sides, even if they did not ask for credit, it was still relatively easy for them to get out of this terrible disaster.
However, Li Mu sneered.
"Hoho, Lv An? This good-for-nothing is a felon who secretly conspired against the rebels. He is already a prisoner in prison, waiting for trial. What qualification does he have to testify for you? "
Li Mu said.
"What?" The Southern Dipper Sect was shocked.
"The Young Immortal has been put in prison?"
"What's going on?"
"Although the Great Leader of the Punishment Mansion is powerful, isn't it a little too much to arrest a Young Immortal for no reason?"
"You still want Lv An to cover for you when you're about to die. Do you think it's possible?" Li Mu sneered.
The Southern Dipper Sect looked horrified.
At this moment, he really realized where the danger was.
If Lv An didn't meet with any mishap, then the two of them could cooperate with each other. Then, they would be able to overcome this crisis without any mishaps. After all, they were the two strongest local tyrants. Even though Mu Mu was a powerful dragon, he couldn't capture them for no reason.
But now … there was trouble.
He looked up, saw Li Mu's eyes, and immediately felt the threat of death.
"Your Honor, I …" The Southern Dipper Sect still wanted to explain.
But Li Mu directly waved his hand and interrupted him.
"Don't talk nonsense. I remember you just said that if I can leave Sanshui Nandou Mountain alive today, you will tattoo your face, dig out your eyes, and destroy your own cultivation, right?"
Li Mu looked down and asked with interest.
The Southern Dipper Sect's heart skipped a beat.
"Crap.
"How could I say that at that time? What should I do now?"
Seeing the Southern Dipper Sect's silence, Li Mu asked with a smile, "Then, do you think I can walk out of Sanshui Nandou Mountain alive today?"
There was one more thing.
