"They came so fast."
Li Mu was suddenly shocked.
When he looked back, he saw that the True Ancestor and the War Ancestor had both galloped along the mountain path and reached the top of the mountain in the blink of an eye.
Both of them were covered in clouds, and their immortal energy was flowing, as if they had experienced a great battle.
It could be seen that climbing the mountain under the pressure of the Tao Master was also an extremely difficult thing for them.
"Don't you want to see the Tao Master?"
Hua Xiangrong slowly stood up with the support of the parasol tree and said, "The Tao Master is here. Why don't you salute him?"
Needless to say, the two ancestors had already seen the Tao Master's remains.
"Greetings, Tao Master."
"Greetings, Tao Master."
The two immediately knelt on both knees.
Although there was panic in their hearts, there was more ecstasy.
The reason why they dared to commit such a great crime of disrespect today was that they were worried that the Tao Master would be schemed against by Hua Xiangrong or for other reasons. After all, Taishi Tao Master hadn't seen them for a long time.
A few days ago, the person who attacked the Heavenly Dao Palace was rumored to be Taishi Tao Master, but as the four ancestors, they certainly knew that it was false.
They didn't expect to see Taishi Tao Master safe and sound. How could they not be excited?
As long as they confirmed the existence of the Tao Master, they would not complain even if they were punished and erased.
But "Taishi Tao Master" didn't mean to turn back.
The two ancestors pressed their foreheads against the ground.
But they didn't get the punishment of "Taishi Tao Master".
Feeling the calm and unwavering pressure, the two of them seemed to have foreseen the anger of the Dao Master. Immediately, they became anxious and held their breath, not daring to raise their heads as they knelt quietly.
Hua Xiangrong leaned against the parasol tree and looked at Li Mu.
Li Mu smiled bitterly.
He already understood why Hua Xiangrong took him back to the top of the mountain.
Indeed.
On the top of the mountain, there was the only chance of survival.
It was on the remains of the Tao Master.
As long as Li Mu was willing to integrate the remains of the Tao Master, he could have the power of Taishi Tao Master.
That meant he could become Taishi Tao Master.
Loyal subordinates like the True Ancestor and the War Ancestor would naturally follow Li Mu's every command. All the crises immediately disappeared.
He looked at Hua Xiangrong.
The flower's expression was serene and calm.
Set off by the blood, the face seemed to be countless times more beautiful than Li Mu remembered.
Her eyes were so clear and pure.
There was not the slightest pleading, hope, or any other emotion in his voice.
She just quietly leaned against the parasol tree, waiting for Li Mu's choice.
Li Mu shook his head.
Without any hesitation, he arrived in front of the Dao Master's remains and gently pressed his hand on its forehead.
There was a flash of light.
Then, Li Mu disappeared.
What replaced it was the "Taoist Master's Slough" that had been sleeping for many years. At this moment, its eyelashes moved slightly, and it slowly opened its eyes.
In the next moment, the domineering pressure that covered the entire Dao Master Mountain suddenly boiled from its previously calm and still state.
It seemed intense.
Turbulence.
It was as if he wanted to destroy this world in his rage.
The True Ancestor and the War Ancestor immediately lowered their heads even more.
They could feel the rage of the Dao Lord.
It felt like a long, long time ago.
"Do you know your crime?"
The deep voice carried a kind of indifference that was close to forgetting all emotions.
This voice hadn't appeared on the Dao Master Mountain for hundreds of years.
Of course, only Hua Xiangrong knew that.
The moment she saw Taishi Tao Master open his eyes, her eyes shone brightly. In an instant, she looked more radiant, as if even her injuries had disappeared.
She looked at Taishi Tao Master, and there were stars twinkling in her eyes.
The War Ancestor and the True Ancestor, however, put their foreheads on the ground and said in a trembling voice, "We know we're wrong. We're willing to accept any punishment from Tao Master."
"Taishi Tao Master" stood up.
Slowly, he turned around.
His Taoist robe fluttered, and the domineering pressure that covered the entire Dao Master Mountain suddenly withdrew into his body at an extremely fast speed, like a whale sucking water.
The aura of the entire Dao Master Mountain changed in an instant.
Hua Xiangrong's eyes were shining, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her face.
That smile was as bright as the sun and as beautiful as a flower.
It was also the first time that Hua Xiangrong showed such a heartfelt smile since Li Mu met her in the Middle Three Heavens.
"How stupid you two are! You forced me to meet you with my old body. Do you know that my painstaking efforts are almost wasted?"
"Taishi Tao Master" said.
"We deserve to die."
"Tao Master, please punish us."
The two experts were both shocked and regretful.
"Fine, you two can stand up."
"Taishi Tao Master" raised his hand and said, "Considering that your original intention of offending me this time was for me, and you didn't make a big mistake, and I didn't tell you in advance, I won't punish you. Remember, Venerable Bai is my most trusted person, and he is also the executor of my plan to deceive the world. In the future, you can't disrespect Venerable Bai, understand?"
"Yes, sir."
"Thank you for sparing our lives, Tao Master."
The two ancestors were overjoyed.
"Sure enough, Tao Master cherishes our old friendship."
This made them happier than the Dao Master forgiving them.
After following him for countless years, their feelings for Tao Master had gone far beyond that of ordinary subordinates.
In their hearts, Taishi Tao Master was their spiritual pillar, just like Immortal Master Muyun was their eternal idol in the eyes of countless geniuses in the Heavenly Law Alliance.
The two Peak Overlords of the Immortal World had supreme prestige in their respective camps.
"Ancestor Suppressing Ancestor has been killed by me. After you two go down the mountain, just focus on dealing with the Heavenly Law Alliance. As for other things, Venerable Bai will take care of them. Do you understand?"
"Taishi Tao Master" said again.
The two ancestors did not dare to have the slightest neglect or doubt. After saluting, they turned around and went down the mountain.
Without the deterrence of Tao Master's domineering pressure, they could naturally fly down the mountain.
Almost in a fraction of a second after they went down the mountain, the evil and delicate face of "Taishi Tao Master" turned back into Li Mu's masculine and handsome face. Then, he sat down again, cross-legged under the parasol tree, closed his eyes, and the aura of a living person instantly dissipated.
A glimmer of light flashed.
Li Mu's figure came out of the remains of Tao Master.
His face was pale, and he looked extremely weak. The Celestial Core Power in his body had been consumed, and he was sweating profusely, as if he had just been fished out of the water.
"You …"
Hua Xiangrong's face showed extreme astonishment.
She never expected that after Li Mu merged with the remains of Taishi Tao Master, he could be separated from him again.
The corners of her mouth, which were slightly raised, suddenly froze.
A kind of disappointment that could not be concealed emerged on her face.
While Li Mu was gasping for breath, he suddenly thought of something. He patted his forehead and said, "Oh, no."
