"Zhang Fan."
He Yingxin said.
Li Mu was shocked.
Zhang Fan?
It was a very common name.
It was so common that there might be hundreds or thousands of people with the same name in the world at the same time.
But it was not an ordinary name.
Because Li Mu had heard that name before.
Besides Fang Tianyi, the Sword God, there was another person beside Ding Hao, the Saber and Sword Sage-Emperor. His cultivation strength and status were not inferior to Fang Tianyi's.
This person was Zhang Fan.
Zhang Fan, the Broadsword Saint.
It was rumored that this person was from the same sect as Ding Hao and was a disciple of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.
However, he had no talent in the path of swordsmanship. Even in the path of martial arts, his aptitude was extremely limited. However, he was born with a firm will and a tenacious will that was beyond imagination. In the end, he actually found another way to practice the Saber Art and became the legendary Saber Saint. He matured slowly and his cultivation was astonishing.
Sword and Saber Divine Emperor Ding Hao was known as the Sword and Saber Dual Master.
Beside him, there was a saber and a sword.
The sword was Fang Tianyi.
The blade was Zhang Fan.
Now Fang Tianyi had died in battle.
Who would have thought that Zhang Fan was actually imprisoned in the Immortal Court of the East Saint Continent?
But what the hell was this about going to jail?
How could he protect his companions when he was locked up in prison?
For a moment, Li Mu couldn't figure out the Broadsword Sage's way of doing things.
"Since it's this person, why didn't the Celestial Court kill him? He'll be a big scourge if he stays alive in the world," Li Mu said.
He Yingxin said, "This person cultivates the Supreme Kung Fu Devoted by Ten Emperors. His physical body is so strong that it's almost indestructible. Even the Heavenly Court can't kill him. His saber technique is so strong that even the Great Immortal Master couldn't withstand three strikes from him, so …"
He Yingxin didn't continue.
These were the dark history of the Immortal Court.
Hearing that, Li Mu was stunned.
How could Zhang Fan be so strong?
He found it hard to believe.
However, when he thought about it carefully, he realized that this person had been in the eighteenth level of the Heavenly Prison and had only used two strikes to nearly kill him. If he had appeared in the seventeenth level of the prison, he would probably have been able to kill him with one strike.
Just the strength that Zhang Fan had displayed just now was really terrifying.
With such strength, it wasn't impossible for them to overturn the Immortal Court of the East Saint Continent.
This made Li Mu even more confused.
Zhang Fan and Fang Tianyi were fellow disciples of the same sect. Later, they became Ding Hao's right-hand men. It could be said that they were neck and neck with each other. Why was Zhang Fan so powerful and terrifying? In contrast, Fang Tianyi's performance in the battle of the Four Brightness Immortal Mansion was a bit unsatisfactory.
How could there be such a huge gap between two equally famous people?
Could it be …
Li Mu suddenly had a bold conjecture.
Soon, they arrived outside the Imperial Prison.
Walking along the Line Cliff, Li Mu came to the outside and saw the giant pigeon king. It was cooing and waiting for the pigeon to set off. When it saw Li Mu, it hopped over to him in a rather affectionate manner.
Apart from other things, the appearance of such a huge white pigeon was quite divine, not inferior to that of flying cranes and other flying mounts. So, Li Mu was quite satisfied.
But to Li Mu's surprise, there was another person beside the pigeon.
Thump!
Wuyue rushed over and knelt in front of Li Mu.
He held the token in his hand.
"Greetings, my lord." Wu Yue knelt on both knees, extremely respectful.
At first glance, Li Mu understood what was going on.
He took the token and said, "What's up? Have you thought it through? "
Wu Yue put his forehead on the ground and knelt down deeply. He said, "I'm willing to submit to you. From now on, I'll go through fire and knives, and I'll never refuse you."
Li Mu said with interest, "It seems that you've encountered some trouble and need my help."
Wu Yue's heart trembled. Not daring to hide anything, he hurriedly said, "Your Honor, you have a pair of sharp eyes. I'm at a dead end. I'm willing to sacrifice my lowly life to ask for your help."
Li Mu raised his hand.
An invisible force helped Wu Yue up.
"It's not a good thing for a man to kneel at every turn. Get up. I promise you." As Li Mu spoke, he leaped onto the head of the pigeon king.
"Ah?"
Wu Yue was dumbfounded.
He had thought that even if they didn't bargain, the head would at least ask him what the matter was before he would consider whether to agree or not. But he didn't expect that Li Mu would agree so readily.
After thinking for a while, Wu Yue said, "Your Honor, won't you ask me what I'm asking you for?"
After all, he was going to deal with one of the ten leaders of the Ministry of Labour, who was definitely not a small fry but a real powerful figure on Meteor Island.
Li Mu laughed and said, "On this island, there are few things that the head of the Ministry of Labour can't do."
Wu Yue fell silent.
That sentence made him feel the confidence and strength brought by power and status.
That was exactly what he lacked.
The white pigeon took off.
Standing on the pigeon's back, Wu Yue told Li Mu what had happened.
He was a little uneasy.
Although the position of the leader of the Ministry of Labour was one level lower than that of the head of the Ministry of Labour, he was not directly subordinate to the head of the Ministry of Labour. Moreover, the Feng family had been operating on Meteor Island for many years and had many friends. Their power was complicated, so it was not easy to deal with them.
However, when Li Mu heard that, he smiled disdainfully.
"I was wondering what kind of big shot made you so embarrassed that you didn't hesitate to sell yourself. It turns out that he is just a small fry." Li Mu sat cross-legged on the pigeon's head, with his back to Wu Yue and the others.
He said indifferently, "With your strength and talent, dealing with that Li Yuanchen should be a piece of cake. It's a pity that you don't have the chance to show off your talent. You don't have any power or influence, and you only have an empty position. Therefore, even a nobody like him dares to jump on your head and piss on you. Haha, don't you feel sad?"
Wu Yue lowered his head and said nothing.
This matter had indeed touched him too much.
"Don't worry. Now that you've met me, you will never bow to others because of this kind of thing again."
Li Mu exuded strong confidence.
He slowly rose to his feet and said, "Let's go. I'll go with you."
Wu Yue was taken aback and hurriedly said, "How dare I trouble Your Honor to go in person? You only need …"
Li Mu waved his hand and said, "I'm a superstitious person. It just so happens that I'm going out to do something important tomorrow. It's hard to predict whether it will be good or bad. It's good to attend your wedding and get some of your happiness."
Hearing that, Wu Yue roughly understood what was going on.
Although he was pedantic, he was not stupid.
By doing so, it was clear that Li Mu was going to support him in person.
Feeling grateful, he bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you, Your Honor. Your Honor's kindness is as high as the mountains and as long as the rivers. I'll do my best to repay Your Honor's kindness. "
Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Don't say beautiful words. I want to see your actual action."
So, He Yingxin returned to the Punishment Mansion with several war slaves and prepared to go to the Demon-subduing Pavilion.
Li Mu and Wu Yue went to Heaven General City.
…
…
At 7 am
According to the time on Earth, it was from 7 am to 9 am
At this time, the dusk was coming.
In the Red Willow District of Heaven General City, it was just dawn.
There were many people on the street.
Flying was forbidden on Shooting Star Island, so the immortals could only walk.
It was a quarter after 7 am
There was still a quarter of an hour to go.
That was, 15 minutes.
In the courtyard of the Li family, there was a dead silence.
Of course, Li Yuanchen couldn't stay in the Li family for the whole night. Soon after humiliating Wu Yue, he left, but he left a whole team of celestial soldiers and celestial generals to monitor the surroundings of the Li family.
The relatives and friends who came to attend yesterday's "incense adding" banquet were forced to stay, waiting to watch the show.
However, after yesterday's interruption and the revelation of the matter, the celebratory atmosphere was completely gone. Relatives and friends sat in the courtyard with awkward expressions. It was not appropriate for them to discuss the matter. It was as if they were in prison, and the atmosphere was silent with a trace of sadness.
Li Ying was arranged to stay in the boudoir in the backyard.
Her mother, Lin Yi, did not entertain the guests anymore, but comforted her daughter with tears.
The night passed.
Almost half of Lin Yi's hair was white.
"Child, why don't you leave? Go find Wuyue and take you away from Meteor Island. Don't worry about me and your father. We're old and have resigned ourselves to our fate. We can't drag you down."
Lin Yi comforted her daughter.
Li Ying shook her head.
Her tears had dried up.
Her heart was dead.
The last trace of warmth in her heart came from Wu Yue.
She knew that this man must be desperately thinking of a way to ask for help at all costs.
She also knew that there was nothing he could do.
If they abandoned their parents and left with him, what awaited them would be another conspiracy, another scheme. A sinister person like Li Yuanchen would never let them off.
Perhaps this was fate.
"Mother, it's almost time. Please comb my hair again."
Li Ying stood up and sat in front of the dressing table.
She had already decided not to struggle anymore.
Accept your fate.
When she saw the delicate and pretty girl in the mirror, she let out a long sigh and silently said in her heart, "I'm sorry, girl, I can't take good care of you in this life."
At this moment, footsteps came from downstairs.
Lin Yi exclaimed.
Li Ying saw Wu Yue rushing into her boudoir in the mirror.
Did he come again after all?
Li Ying did not turn around and said indifferently, "Go. If you continue to pester me like this and Li Yuanchen sees you, my father won't live, and we won't live …"
However, Wu Yue rushed over and hugged Li Ying tightly from behind.
Li Ying's body trembled, but she did not struggle.
"I'm sorry," Wu Yue said.
When Li Ying heard these three words, the last trace of hope in her heart disappeared.
But immediately after, Wu Yue shed tears.
He said firmly, "Yingying, I'm sorry for making you worry. Don't worry, I've already found someone who can help us. You don't have to marry Li Yuanchen, uncle will be safe and sound."
Behind him, his mother Lin Yi's body stiffened.
Li Ying thought she had heard wrongly, "What … did you say?"
Wu Yue said, "There's a lord who's willing to help us. Yingying, don't worry. The nightmare is over. From now on, I won't be as muddle-headed as before. I'll protect you for the rest of my life."
Li Ying was stunned. She slowly stood up and turned around, "Who is the lord you're talking about? Where is he? "
