Nandou Xiongfeng acted quickly and decisively. Soon, the entire Southern Dipper Sect was under his control.
Half a month later.
He Yingxin went to Green Bamboo Peak to visit.
He had done everything he needed to do.
Soon, the entire Swinging Eagle Mansion knew that Young Divine Master Lu An and the former head of the Southern Dipper Sect had secretly colluded with the rebels to frame Nandou Xiongfeng. Fearing that Mu Mu, the head of the Punishment Department of the Great Celestial Court, would come to investigate, they ordered someone to pretend to be the head and take Nandou Xiongfeng away from the heavily-guarded prison. Since there was no evidence, Nandou Xiongfeng escaped and finally met the real head Mu Mu, who revealed the truth.
One was the head of the Celestial Court of the Swinging Eagle Mansion, and the other was the head of the largest sect in the Swinging Eagle Mansion. The news shocked the world.
In the end, these two traitors were ordered to be executed in the Heavenly Prison of the Small Immortal Court by the Great Lord Mu Mu.
At the same time, there were also several hundred of his henchmen who were all imprisoned. They were either killed or tortured into slavery. The implications were extremely great.
In the end, Nandou Xiongfeng, who was framed, escaped and became the new head of the Southern Dipper Sect. It could be said that he had a meteoric rise.
Just like that, a case that shocked the world was solved by the new head of the Ministry of Punishment in a thunderous manner.
Of course, there were some doubts.
But soon, they were suppressed by the Great Celestial Court.
At the same time, all kinds of evidence obtained by He Yingxin were sent to the Great Celestial Court.
But Li Mu still stayed in the waterside building.
On the one hand, he wanted to give Dongfang Yeren time to clean up the mess and select the new Young Divine Master of the Swinging Eagle Mansion and the head of the six mansions.
On the other hand, he wanted to stay with Hua Xiangrong for a while.
Li Mu didn't plan to take Hua Xiangrong to the Great Celestial Court.
The Meteor Island was full of danger, and it was difficult to deal with the big shots in the Immortal Realm. It was better to leave her in the Southern Dipper Sect. With the help of her master who had become the head, she could concentrate on cultivation and didn't need to deal with those dark things and wars.
The Swinging Eagle Mansion was not close to the Meteor Island, but it was not too far either. As Li Mu's strength improved, it only took him a day to go back and forth with a magic device that could accelerate. So, he could see Hua Xiangrong at any time.
Li Mu took some time to repair and strengthen the small building by the water.
At the same time, under his request, the disciples and elders of the Southern Dipper Sect who were good at alchemy and alchemy were serving outside the bamboo forest to refine immortal metal.
On the trip to the Four Brightness Immortal Mansion, Li Mu had obtained countless rough immortal gold.
After refining these rough embryos and removing the impurities, one could obtain Immortal Gold Essence.
This type of metal could be absorbed and swallowed by the Zhu Xian Saber, continuously raising its grade.
Now, with the improvement of Li Mu's cultivation, the upgrade of the Immortal-slaying Fairy Weapon was imminent.
With the help of the top alchemy cultivators in the Southern Dipper Sect, Li Mu didn't have to spend much effort to refine all the immortal gold he had into gold essence.
This was the benefit of having power.
In the next three months, Li Mu stayed in the waterside building on the Green Bamboo Peak of the Swaying Eagle Mansion. He kept practicing, practicing, refining the Immortal-slaying Sword, and crazily improving his strength.
And Hua Xiangrong's cultivation was also rising rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, three months passed.
On this day, it was a cloudy day.
The dozens of immortal experts sent by the Great Immortal Court to take over the various positions in the Swaying Eagle Mansion had all arrived. After taking up their duties, they did not dare to neglect and immediately came to the waterside building to visit Li Mu, the giant of the Immortal Court.
Nowadays, Li Mu's ferocious name was known to all. His invincible might was so great that no one dared to go against him openly.
Even the people of the Immortal Court who were not on the same side as Li Mu showed enough respect to him on the surface.
Li Mu didn't bother to deal with them. After meeting them, he sent them away.
Another month passed.
In the fourth month, He Yingxin had to come to urge Li Mu with a bitter face.
"It seems that I have to go back."
Li Mu stretched and walked out of the main room.
The land of tenderness was the grave of a hero.
In the past four months, Li Mu's spirit was almost eroded by tenderness.
His cultivation had improved again, and the grade of the Immortal-slaying Sword had improved greatly.
"Let's go to Meteor Island."
Li Mu finally relented.
He Yingxin breathed a sigh of relief.
He was really afraid that his master loved the beauty more than the country. If so, everything he had done before would be in vain, and the Great Immortal Master would probably die. Fortunately, he was finally willing to leave.
Li Mu smiled and patted the back of Hua Xiangrong's hand, saying, "I'll come to see you in a few days."
Hua Xiangrong nodded with a smile.
If they loved each other for a long time, they wouldn't stay together day and night.
Li Mu and He Yingxin rose into the air and entered the Xuan 'ge battleship that had been waiting for a long time. They broke the void, left the Sanshui Nandou Mountain, and disappeared in the distant sky.
Hua Xiangrong stood by the lake and watched them leave.
Wen Jing stood by the side, facing the wind.
Now, the entire Swaying Eagle Mansion had known that the first beauty in the mansion, Hua Xiangrong, had become the exclusive property of Mu Mu, the head of the Punishment Mansion. No one dared to have any ideas about this sister.
From now on, the life on Green Bamboo Peak would be much better.
Wen Jing was also relieved.
A few days ago, her master had sent someone to Green Bamboo Peak to ask Wen Jing if she was interested in entering the Commandment Hall to gain experience. The position offered was also quite powerful, but Wen Jing refused.
The little girl knew that her master was trying to be friendly to her and wanted to place her confidant in the Nandou Cult. If she accepted, her authority and status in the Nandou Cult would increase greatly in the future. However, for some reason, she was still more willing to stay in the small building near the water and serve Senior Sister Hua.
When they reached the end of the river, they sat down and watched the clouds rise.
The tranquility of the waterside building could make Wen Jing feel more at ease.
…
…
Meteor Island.
The mist was misty, and the fairy aura was vast.
The lanterns were lit.
The lights were like stars, dotting the island.
After a grand banquet attended by almost all the big shots of the Immortal Court, Li Mu returned to the area of the Punishment Mansion. What awaited him was another welcoming banquet inside the Punishment Mansion.
He was the star of the two banquets.
The first banquet was initiated by Dongfang Yeren, the Great Immortal. He introduced Li Mu to the five chiefs of the Military Department, the Ministry of Labour, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Etiquette, the Ministry of Official Affairs, and the Punishment Mansion. They were all at the same level as Li Mu and had their own magical powers and backgrounds.
Through Dongfang Yeren's hint, Chu Tiankuo, the Great Master of the Military Department, and Cao Binghuai, the Great Master of the Ministry of Etiquette, were Dongfang Yeren's "own people". Of course, this "own people" only meant that they were Dongfang Yeren's confidants, but not necessarily "own people". The rest of the chiefs, Yun Xinan, the Great Master of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Xu Qingfeng, and Yuan Qinxin, the Great Master of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, were not on the same side as Li Mu.
During the banquet, Li Mu communicated with these people, but he had different feelings.
When he returned to the Punishment Mansion, his subordinates had already prepared a banquet, during which all kinds of gifts were presented.
There were a total of ten chiefs in the Punishment Mansion, all of whom had profound cultivation and extraordinary backgrounds. Eight of them showed up at the banquet and were very respectful to Li Mu. As for the other two, one was out on a case, and the other was said to have other important matters to attend to, so he declined the banquet.
Li Mu didn't care at all.
Li Mu accepted the gifts presented by his subordinates without hesitation.
That night, the singing and dancing in the Punishment Mansion went on and on until dawn.
Seeing this, all parties had different reactions.
The next day, Li Mu, who was supposed to be in court to sort out the backlog of affairs in the mansion, was sleeping soundly in his bedroom. He missed the appointed time and had no intention of taking charge of the affairs.
The documents piled up like a mountain in the mansion were still pending.
The chiefs and officials of the Punishment Mansion looked at each other in bewilderment.
It was not until noon, when Li Mu, sleepy and yawning, arrived late, but he was still reeking of alcohol.
The immortal wine of the Immortal Court could even make immortals drunk, but his unrestrained behavior still surprised hundreds of Divine Generals and officials of the Punishment Mansion.
"You can all go. I've been working too hard in the Swaying Eagle Mansion, day and night … Ahem, I need to rest for a few days, and then I'll go to court to count the time. You can go back to your duties."
Li Mu yawned and waved his hand.
The officials had no choice but to leave.
At this time, He Yingxin happened to go against the flow into the hall.
"Yingxin, how's it going?" Li Mu asked, yawning.
He Yingxin looked at his master with a wry smile, only feeling a headache, and said, "The Demon-suppressing Pavilion refused the Punishment Mansion's request to take someone away. Immortal Master complained three times, and finally the Demon-suppressing Pavilion replied that if you want to take someone away, you have to go to the Heaven Prison Demon Mountain in person."
Li Mu's drunkenness disappeared in an instant, and his eyes flashed.
"Well done, Dongfang Yeren."
"I've handled the affairs of the Swaying Eagle Mansion so well, so that you can place your trusted subordinates in the Celestial Court of the Swaying Eagle Mansion at will. But four months have passed, and you still haven't done what you promised me. You didn't rescue the old faker from the Thunder Prison of the Demon-suppressing Pavilion …"
"This Great Immortal Master is too useless."
He Yingxin hurriedly said, "Your Honor, please don't be angry. Immortal Master really has his own difficulties." He took out a letter, which was completely devoid of energy fluctuations, and said, "It's from Immortal Master."
Li Mu took the letter with his fingers, opened it, and the expression on his face changed continuously. Finally, there was a touch of golden flame on his fingertip, and the letter was completely burned.
"Xiao He." Li Mu looked at him with a smile.
He Yingxin's heart suddenly trembled.
"Again."
"This title."
Li Mu said, "Come with me to the prison."
He Yingxin was stunned, and said, "Your Honor, are you going to interrogate by torture?"
Li Mu stood up, laughed, and said, "No, I'm going to find a few dogs."
"Ah?" He Yingxin was stunned.
The two walked out of the hall, took a Cyan Luan, and flew in the direction of the prison.
Li Mu suddenly remembered that flying was forbidden on Meteor Island, and he hadn't had time to choose a mount. An idea occurred to him, and he said, "Let's go to the Department of Household first and pick a few spirit birds."
The Cyan Luan changed course.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the Department of Household.
The base for raising fairy beasts and birds was under the jurisdiction of the Department of Household.
Hearing that the head of the Punishment Mansion had come in person to choose a mount, Ge Wuyou, the person in charge of the base, did not dare to be negligent, and hurriedly came out to greet him in person.
"Greetings, Your Honor. I'm Ge Wuyou." Ge Wuyou respectfully greeted Li Mu with dozens of immortals in the base.
Li Mu nodded and said, "I've just arrived on Meteor Island and haven't found a mount to my liking, so I'm here to pick one or two. Steward Ge, please introduce me one or two."
Ge Wuyou did not dare to be negligent, and immediately led Li Mu into the breeding base.
The whole base was divided into six areas, and each area was divided into different small units. The fairy beasts raised in each area were of different grades and bloodlines. They were divided into ten levels from the lowest to the highest.
"I wonder if Your Honor already has a target in mind. Which type of fairy beast are you going to choose?" Ge Wuyou asked as he led the way.
