Li Mu was slightly stunned.
It turned out to be this reason.
It could be explained.
However, this reason could neither be proved nor falsified.
It was up to Li Mu whether to believe it or not.
Li Mu asked, "Senior Star Emperor, what do you want me to do by telling me this?"
Star Emperor shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Li Mu fell silent.
Star Sovereign added, "I hope the Young Master knows about this, so that he can be vigilant and prepared. I will investigate why the Celestial Master and Father God turned into a demon. Only the Young Master can reverse the future puzzle and desperate situation, so … Young Master, take care."
Then, he turned around and walked out.
Li Mu suddenly asked, "Does anyone else know these words?"
The Star Sovereign stopped and said, "I have only told this to the Young Master. Even the Star Sovereign and my elder brother don't know."
Li Mu nodded and said, "Then do you know what Senior Star Emperor really saw in the process of Heaven's Design deduction?"
Star Emperor shook his head and said, "I am 60% sure that what my brother said in the ruins of Star-observing Mansion is true. As for the other 40% … I can't guarantee it. But I am sure that the four of us saw absolutely different scenes, and we don't know what each other saw."
Li Mu stood up, cupped his hands, and said, "Thank you, senior."
Then, he removed the tactical deployment in the Pangui Hall.
Star Emperor strode out of the hall and disappeared at the gate.
Li Mu watched him leave, but thoughts flashed in his mind.
He preferred a head-on confrontation. He liked to fight to his heart's content with his fists.
But the guessing game of touching an elephant in the fog … really gave Li Mu a headache.
When he returned to the hall, he didn't sit for long before another person came to visit.
It was Qu Zi, one of the 36 Pillar Gods in the ascenders' camp.
"Senior Qu, please sit down."
Li Mu welcomed him warmly.
Qu Zi was a figure he admired and respected, so his attitude was naturally different from Star Emperor's.
Qu Zi sat down calmly.
"I was asked by Gui Guzi and Liu Ji to come to you and tell you the truth of today's divination."
Qu Zi said straightforwardly.
Li Mu was delighted.
He had been worrying about how he could meet Liu Ji and Gui Guzi. Little did he expect that Qu Zi's arrival would solve everything in an instant.
"Senior, please speak."
Then, Li Mu set up a tactical deployment in the hall.
Qu Yuan also felt as though the two of them had been removed from this world, from this plane. It was as though the entire world had disappeared and only the two of them were left.
Just like Star Sovereign, although Qu Zi's expression did not change, deep down, he was still quite shocked.
The growth of Li Mu's cultivation was too fast.
It was so fast that it was illogical.
Qu Yuan said, "You should already know that the scene of the Heavenly Dao that Gui Guzi saw in today's divination is actually different from what he said."
Li Mu nodded.
Qu Zi continued, "The real scene Gui Guzi saw was indeed a ruined palace and bones all over the place. However, you weren't with Immortal Master Mu Yun. You were fighting, and you even saw the result of the battle. You defeated Immortal Master Mu Yun, but strangely, you quickly became Immortal Master Mu Yun."
Li Mu was startled.
"I became Immortal Master Mu Yun?"
He asked in confusion.
Qu Zi nodded and said, "You defeated Immortal Master Mu Yun and then changed into Immortal Master Mu Yun …"
After hearing that, Li Mu slightly frowned.
That was his habitual action.
Whenever he had doubts and began to think, Li Mu would have such an expression.
He was wondering what it meant that he suddenly changed into Immortal Master Mu Yun.
There were three explanations —
First, he defeated Immortal Master Mu Yun and then used the supernatural tactical deployment to change into his appearance.
But why did he do that?
Did he want to use the identity of Immortal Master Mu Yun to do something?
It was like Sun Wukong disguised as Bull Demon King to cheat the Palm-leaf Fan.
Second, it was possible that the Li Mu who defeated Immortal Master Mu Yun was not the real Li Mu, but the incarnation of Immortal Master Mu Yun. So after the battle, he showed his real appearance.
But if that was the case, who was the defeated "Immortal Master Mu Yun"?
Third, this matter could be explained in a very abstract symbolic sense.
For example, the dragon-slaying warrior eventually became a dragon. Would he, who defeated Immortal Master Mu Yun, eventually become another figure like Immortal Master Mu Yun?
"I'm so sad."
Li Mu complained inwardly.
He resisted the urge to continue thinking about it and asked, "Today, Senior Gui Guzi risked his life to tell me to run away. According to the future Map of the Great Path he saw, it doesn't seem necessary for the time being. Why?"
If the picture Gui Guzi saw was that he had defeated Immortal Master Mu Yun, then there was no need for him to run away today.
Qu Zi said, "Gui Guzi sensed that you are in an unprecedented crisis. In the Heavenly Dao Palace, your situation will become more and more dangerous as time goes by. Especially at the moment when the Star Orbit Altar collapsed, that premonition of danger reached the peak. You may die at any time, so he risked his life to send you a voice transmission to tell you to run away quickly."
Li Mu was shocked.
When Star Emperor came before, he also mentioned the word "premonition".
In Star Emperor's premonition, he would be the only possibility to finally solve all the darkness.
Now, Gui Guzi also mentioned the premonition.
His premonition was that he was likely to die in an instant at that time.
Therefore, one thing could be inferred from this —
Masters who were good at divination would have a very strong premonition after seeing the picture of the future.
It was like ordinary people who saw a tiger rushing out of its cage or an oncoming out-of-control car. They would subconsciously dodge and run away, and their minds would come up with the judgment that "I'm going to die".
However, the masters' premonitions were obviously deeper and more accurate.
Gui Guzi's premonition could not be false.
That meant one thing —
At that time, Li Mu was really in an absolutely dangerous state.
Then, here came the question.
Where did the danger come from?
Li Mu's cultivation was already in the Fairy Emperor Realm at that time. Even if he fought against the great emperors and the pillars, he might not necessarily lose.
Unless they all swarmed him.
But in his current state, only four people had seen the scene of the future Diagram of Heavenly Daos, and since Gui Guzi and Liu Ji had chosen to let Qu Zi tell him the real scene, it meant that the two of them had no intention of killing him. As for Star Sovereign and Star Sovereign, since Star Sovereign had chosen to tell him the 'truth', he had no intention of killing them either.
Star Emperor was injured at that time. Even if he wanted to kill him, he could not really pose a threat.
Even if Star Emperor said it just now …
What Star Emperor said just now was a lie. He actually wanted to kill him … In the state that Star Emperor and Star Emperor were at that time, even if they joined forces, they might not be a match for Li Mu.
So, if everything was ruled out, where did the danger come from?
On the surface, there was only one person in the entire Heavenly Dao Palace who could make Gui Guzi have that kind of illusion of extreme danger —
Immortal Master Mu Yun.
So, Immortal Master Mu Yun was not really in closed-door training?
Instead, he had been avoiding contact with me in the name of closed-door training?
Was he secretly observing me?
Perhaps at the moment when the [Star Orbit Altar] collapsed, he suddenly wanted to kill.
But then, for some reason, he held back?
Li Mu thought about it and found that there seemed to be only one possibility.
Of course, it was also possible that he was thinking the wrong way.
Why did he involuntarily start to blacken Immortal Master Mu Yun?
Li Mu thought about it again and again. Since he entered the Middle Three Heavens, he began to come into contact with some extremely unfavorable information about Immortal Master Mu Yun, and most of it was from different people, such as the Queen Mother of the West, and later Star Emperor … These people used different languages and information to subtly change his understanding of Immortal Master Mu Yun.
However, Immortal Master Mu Yun's wisdom was accumulated in the Immortal Realm and the Middle Three Heavens for countless years and countless people's comments.
Was it the accumulation of time and the accumulation of the majority of people?
Or the so-called "secrets" of a few people were more important?
Li Mu frowned and rubbed between his eyebrows again.
This was also a habit of his.
When he began to think, he was used to frowning. But when he encountered a difficult problem in thinking, he would rub between his eyebrows.
It was like smoothing out the wrinkles between his eyebrows, and the problem would be easily solved.
"Then what did Senior Liu Ji see?"
Asked Li Mu.
Qu Yuan had been waiting patiently for the result of Li Mu's thinking. He did not have any intention to interrupt or interfere with Li Mu's thinking.
Hearing Li Mu's question, he said, "The picture Liu Ji saw didn't lie, but there were actually two pictures. He was talking about the first picture, and the second picture was you in a white robe, walking alone in the Dao Master Mountain, climbing up the steps, and finally disappearing at the highest point of the Dao Master Mountain!"
Li Mu was stunned.
"Why is it about the Dao Master Mountain again?"
"Does the picture mean that I went to the Dao Master Alliance to seek shelter in the Dao Master Mountain?"
"But first, I was pierced by a white sword, and then I went to seek shelter in the Dao Master Mountain …"
"Well …"
"Does this mean that even though I was pierced by the white sword, I didn't die?"
Li Mu heaved a sigh.
"Damn it."
"Guessing by looking at pictures is really a pain in the ass."
He had an urge to flip the table.
At this time, Qu Zi opened his mouth and said, "I've told you the truth about the Divine Design of the two people. I'm leaving."
With that, he got up.
Li Mu hurriedly asked, "Senior Qu Zi, how did you see this information?"
Qu Yuan shook his head and said, "I don't think about these things. This is what you should think about."
He looked at Li Mu calmly, but there was a kind of steady and heavy power in his eyes. Then, he said slowly, "No matter what decision you make, the ascendants are willing to help you. This is not only my opinion, but also the opinion of Li Bai, Zhang Xu, Liu Ji, and Gui Guzi. So, after you think it over, no matter what choice you make or what you want to do, we will cooperate with you."
