"The Demon-suppressing Pavilion is tracking down the murderer. Irrelevant people, please leave."
The Celestial General in immortal armor shouted in the sky.
The spaceships had sealed off the entire courtyard of the inn. The energy cannons on the bow and deck of the spaceships were all aimed at the courtyard where Li Mu was. The glimmer of the immortal energy was faintly discernible, as if it was about to roar and pour out destructive energy at any time.
The people living in the inn were all scared out of their wits.
After figuring out that such a large-scale operation was not aimed at them, all the cultivators immediately withdrew from the inn with lingering fear and vacated the place, for fear that once a battle broke out, they would be affected.
"Your Excellency, what should we do?"
Asked the Eternal Night Rakshasa.
The six Great War Slaves were operating their immortal power, ready to go.
As long as Li Mu gave the order, they would launch a thunderous attack.
Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Leave."
Boom! Boom!
In the flying dust, the courtyard wall reinforced by the tactical deployment was directly pushed down.
Knives, spears, swords, and halberds were like a forest, shining in the dark night.
A Taoist Master of the Demon-suppressing Pavilion, who seemed to be the leader, came to the courtyard, glanced around, and fixed his eyes on Li Mu. He said, "Who are you waiting for? Tell me your name."
Li Mu said lightly, "I'm just a passer-by."
"What do you mean by passer-by? Who's talking in riddles with you? Tell me your name, "the Taoist Master of the Demon-suppressing Pavilion said coldly, his words full of hostility.
Li Mu frowned and said, "I'm Zuo Luyi."
He told the name of an old friend from the Divine Land.
"I've never heard of this person. What does he do?" The Taoist Master of the Demon-suppressing Pavilion looked fierce. "Tell me, where are you from? Why did you go to the slave market today? Does the kidnapping of Princess Qinglian have anything to do with you? "
At this time, Li Mu had already seen Li Ming, the guide during the day, standing behind several Taoist priests of the Demon-suppressing Pavilion. He looked timid and evasive.
"Did he report me?" Li Mu pointed at Li Ming.
Li Ming was startled and subconsciously took two steps back.
The Taoist Master of the Demon-suppressing Pavilion sneered and said, "What? Do we need to explain to you what the Celestial Master Abode of the Demon Subduing Pavilion does? "
Li Mu said indifferently, "I came from Meteor Island. Today, I went to the slave market, but he was the one who brought me there. He said there was a big show and he wanted me to watch it." Li Mu pointed at Li Ming.
Meteor Island?
The Heavenly Master of the Demon Suppressing Pavilion was stunned.
Meteor Island was where the Great Immortal Court of the Eastern Sage Continent was located. Could this person be an immortal official of the Great Immortal Court?
He looked back at Li Ming.
At this time, Li Ming knew there was no way to hide anymore, so he had to grit his teeth and stand out. He pointed at Li Mu and said, "Yes, I did take you to the slave market, but the situation was chaotic at that time. The demon cultivators raided me and I was knocked out. Only you know what happened later."
Li Mu smiled faintly.
He didn't expect this person to betray him.
No, it couldn't be considered as betrayal. After all, it was just an employment relationship, not a subordinate relationship.
But it also gave Li Mu a reminder.
Being in a dangerous place, he really couldn't let his guard down.
The Demon Pavilion was the most formidable opponent he had encountered since he came to the Immortal Realm.
Who knew if this group of evil Taoist priests would be so crazy that they would not hesitate to kill him even if they knew he was the Great Leader of the Punishment Department of the Great Immortal Court.
"You also said that at that time, the demon cultivators raided, the situation was chaotic, and you were attacked by the demon cultivators. If it weren't for my people who saved you, I'm afraid you would have become a corpse. I didn't expect that not only did you not repay the kindness, but you also framed and reported me. Haha, really disappointing."
Li Mu said coldly.
"All this is what you said. Who knows what happened when I was unconscious? Are you lying to me?" After being accused, Li Ming flew into a rage and retorted loudly.
Li Mu just sneered and said no more.
Li Ming looked like he was ready to risk everything and said fiercely, "Haha, what's more, there are several demon cultivators around you, so it is very suspicious. You are the person hiding behind the scenes. As an outer disciple of the Demon-subduing Pavilion, what's wrong with me reporting you?"
Li Mu nodded and said, "Very well, I'll remember you."
The Celestial Master of the Demon-subduing Pavilion sneered and said, "Can I understand that you are threatening the disciples of the Demon-subduing Pavilion?"
Li Mu didn't bother to say anything more. He opened his palm and a nameplate appeared and sent it over.
The Celestial Master of the Demon-subduing Pavilion took the nameplate doubtfully and looked at it. Then, his expression changed and he looked at Li Mu again. Then, he activated the formation inside the nameplate and checked it carefully. After a while, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
He cupped his hands together and said, "So it's Sir Zuo. This is really like a flood against the temple of the Dragon King. Haha, we're on the same side. I'm sorry to have offended you. I'm Wu Shang, the Hellfire Heavenly Master of Alkaid City. If you have time, you may come to the Hellfire Celestial Master's Mansion as a guest. "
As he spoke, he returned the nameplate.
His tone had changed a lot. It had become more courteous.
Li Mu smiled and said, "Haha, Celestial Master Wu, you're too polite. It's my duty to cooperate with the Celestial Master's Mansion to arrest the demon cultivators. I'm not sure about my schedule. If I have time, I will certainly visit you."
He had prepared this nameplate a long time ago.
Before he came to Alkaid City, Li Mu had some plans. He had made a fake identity for himself.
After all, he had publicly fallen out with the Demon-subduing Pavilion. Once his identity was exposed, something would go wrong.
When Wu Shang saw that Zuo Luyi was not an unforgiving person and his attitude was gentle, he no longer had any doubts and even wanted to make friends with him. He said, "In that case, I'm busy with business, so I won't disturb you, Lord Zuo. I'm very sorry for what happened tonight."
Li Mu cupped his hands and said, "You're too kind, Celestial Master Wu."
The two of them had changed from a moment ago to a moment ago, talking and laughing. There was no longer any tension between them. It was as if they were old friends. The surrounding crowd was dumbfounded.
Wasn't this change a little too fast?
"Retreat."
Wu Shang waved his hand.
The Taoist soldiers of the Demon-subduing Pavilion, the experts in the sky, and the flying shuttle all retreated.
"But, Your Honor … He … He really has a lot of demon cultivators around him. This …" Li Ming realized that something was wrong, so he anxiously tried to explain to Wu Shang, trying to salvage something.
However, Heavenly Master Hellfire Wu Shang only snorted coldly and kicked Li Ming away, saying, "You better sharpen your dog eyes in the future. You can't be so stupid if you want to cheat the bounty." He turned around and returned to a flying boat.
Li Ming lay on the ground, wanting to cry but having no tears.
At this time, in the distant sky, a stream of light zoomed over.
It was a middle-aged Taoist. He landed on Wu Shang's flying shuttle and whispered something in Wu Shang's ear.
Wu Shang's expression changed. He immediately ordered all the Taoist soldiers and Celestial Generals to leave in a hurry.
Li Mu slowly withdrew his gaze.
At this time, Li Ming was so regretful that his intestines turned blue.
"I'm screwed."
"I'm completely screwed."
Now, not only did he not get the reward, but he also lost the "big job" in the next few days.
He got up from the ground, looked at Li Mu with a flattering smile, and said, "Haha, distinguished guest, this is a misunderstanding, a big misunderstanding. Haha, I dare not do it again. Please forgive me this time. Tomorrow morning, I'll come early and I'll lower the price. Yes, yes, lower the price, I …" He still wanted to make money from Li Mu.
"Smack!"
Li Mu directly slapped him and sent him flying.
Li Ming's figure was like a leaf in a whirlpool, flying out in a whirlpool, his face and mouth full of blood.
Li Mu turned around and walked into the room.
"I'm going to do closed-door training. No one is allowed to disturb me."
"Yes, sir."
The six war slaves said in unison.
Li Mu entered the room.
The huge inn gradually regained its tranquility.
The Eternal Night Rakshasa and the other war slaves stood around the room in the courtyard like ghosts and shadows.
In the distance.
Li Ming covered his swollen face, got up with a grim face, and disappeared into the night.
Almost at the same time, the expression of the Eternal Night Rakshasa, who was originally shrouded in shadows, suddenly changed.
"Kill him."
Li Mu's voice sounded in her ears.
The Eternal Night Rakshasa did not reply, and then moved, like a black shadow blending into the dark night, disappeared on the spot, and chased in the direction where Li Ming left.
And almost in the next moment, Li Mu, who had completely restrained his aura, hid his figure, left the position of the Eternal Night Rakshasa, and also entered the vast night.
…
…
"You really found the traces of those demon cultivators. Is the news accurate?"
While urging the flying boat to speed up, Wu Shang couldn't help but confirm the news again.
The middle-aged Taoist standing next to him said, "It's absolutely accurate. It's the news from the inside. Governor Liu and Divine Master Zhu have already led people there. Our people have found traces of Princess Cyan Lotus in that mountain."
When Wu Shang heard this, he became more anxious.
This was a chance to make a contribution in front of him. He couldn't miss it.
But in his heart, he was also worried.
If they ran into that terrible demon cultivator, could anyone in the city really stop him?
"Your Honor, who on earth is that man in the inn just now?" A trusted subordinate came over and asked curiously.
Wu Shang glanced at him and said, "You mean that Zuo Luyi?"
"Yes."
"He's a manager of the Department of Household of the Great Immortal Court. His identity nameplate and information are all right. He should have been sent to the city by the Great Immortal Master to investigate the affairs of the Department of Household. This kind of person is no threat to us, unlike those wild dogs in the Department of Punishment. There's no harm in befriending him. "
"But why are there so many demon cultivators around him? Could it be … "
"Don't worry. I've checked the nameplate. Those demon cultivators are war slaves he took out from the prison on Meteor Island. Even if they are demon cultivators, they have nothing to do with the demons who are making trouble in the city."
"Your Honor is indeed wise. This Zuo Luyi could take out war slaves from the prison. I'm afraid he has a special background. He's not an ordinary manager. It's very necessary to befriend him."
As they spoke, a towering bluish-black mountain appeared in the night.
Alkaid City covered a large area. There were cities, lakes, and mountains in the city. The wild mountain in front of them was not usually eye-catching. But tonight, it became the center of attention of the entire Alkaid City.
Boom! Boom!
Terrifying sounds of battle came.
Waves of immortal weapons and flames of demonic aura glittered in the mountain.
Battle cries rang out incessantly.
They had arrived.
This was the secret base camp of the demon cultivators in Alkaid City.
Countless Dao soldiers surrounded the mountain range with a radius of dozens of miles. Experts of the Demon Subduing Pavilion constantly rushed into the mountain range like locusts and launched attacks.
In the distance, more than a hundred flying boats of various sizes swam in the void like a school of sharks.
Among them, a dark red Xuan Ge, the largest one, floated in the void.
Liu Dongyang, the Lord of Alkaid City, Zhu Sha, the Lotus Fire Divine Master, and dozens of other big shots in Alkaid City were standing on the deck of the Xuan Ge, watching the battle.
The power of the demon cultivators in the mountain was beyond imagination. The previous attacks were all repelled, so Liu Dongyang and the others did not join the battle in person. Instead, they constantly ordered the Dao soldiers and Heavenly Generals to attack to wear down the demon cultivators' strength. After the demon cultivators' morale was destroyed, they would attack and kill the important figures to gain credit.
Seeing that, the Hellfire Divine Master Wu Shang heaved a sigh of relief.
Good.
The credit was still there.
There was still time.
He smiled.
