Li Mu held the little fox and felt it was soft in his palm, as if he was holding a cotton ball.
Moreover, there was a faint fragrance on the little white fox, which was like the fragrance of women's rouge. It smelled very good, which made Li Mu feel that the little fellow might be a precious pet raised by a noble family. He didn't know why it ran out and came here.
"Ruff …" The little white fox intimately licked Li Mu's palm.
Li Mu only felt that his palm was itchy, which made him smile.
"This little fellow is really psychic." Dong Xue couldn't help but want to reach out and touch it, but the little white fox obviously only recognized Li Mu. When others approached it, it would immediately scream and tremble with tears flowing out of its eyes, looking extremely frightened.
"Little fellow, you lost your way? Where is your home? "Li Mu asked with a smile.
He had a natural closeness to this little fellow.
"Ruff, ruff, ruff …" The little white fox made a clear sound, as if it was saying something.
Of course, Li Mu couldn't understand it.
However, with his spiritual force, he could vaguely feel that the little white fox was very hungry, very scared, very sad, just like a child who had lost his home and parents, confused and frightened.
"Well, then you can stay with me for the time being. When I find your master or parents, I will send you back." Li Mu held the little fellow and said softly.
He took Dong Xue and Ning Jing into the courtyard of the Shack.
Now, the Shack's courtyard was like a fairyland isolated from the world. It looked hazy outside, but the scenery inside was picturesque. The Spiritual Qi in the air was extremely rich. Dong Xue and her husband only breathed casually, but they felt as if there was fairy Qi cleansing their chests, which made them feel extremely comfortable.
Shangguan Yuting was sitting in the yard with Xin 'er, Xu Wan' er, Lu Shengnan, and other 17 beautiful girls.
What Shangguan Yuting taught these girls was Li Mu's simplified Xiantian Skill.
These girls had different aptitudes. Among them, Xu Wan 'er and Lu Shengnan were obviously the best, and their cultivation effects were also different. After several days of cultivation, everyone felt refreshed, energetic, and slightly stronger. Their skin also became whiter and more delicate, which obviously aroused the desire of most girls to cultivate.
In fact, Li Mu had made this choice after careful consideration.
He was not worried that the Cultivation Method of the Xiantian Skill would be leaked. On the one hand, the simplified version did not contain the real core meaning of the Xiantian Skill. On the other hand, Li Mu now had great confidence. If anyone dared to leak the Cultivation Method or betray him, he could kill him to get the Cultivation Method back even if he was at the end of the world.
Seeing that Dong Xue and Ning Jing had arrived with gifts, Shangguan Yuting ended her teaching and greeted them.
Since Li Mu had told her about his relationship with Dong Xue, Shangguan Yuting directly called him sister.
"Sister Ting 'er's reputation has spread all over Chang' an City. Seeing you today, you are indeed a heavenly person." Dong Xue used to be a scholar. She had a gentle personality and spoke in an extremely scholarly manner.
However, Ning Jing, an honest young man, was shocked by Shangguan Yuting's beauty. He blushed and dared not to look at her.
He was a very honest and straightforward husband.
The gifts brought by Ning Jing and his wife were not expensive, but some vegetables they grew themselves, as well as the best eggs and meat they had purchased. In the words of Earth, they were organic food. The eggs and pork were native. At the sight of them, Li Mu could not help but be tempted.
The couple stayed for less than an hour and then got up to leave.
Probably they were afraid of delaying Li Mu's business.
In front of Li Mu, the couple appeared very reserved and respectful. Dong Xue called herself a maid, while Ning Jing completely followed her husband's lead and habitually scratched his neck. As the third young master of the Ning Mansion, he also called Li Mu "Young Master" like Dong Xue did, with a simple and honest smile on his face.
Looking at the two, Li Mu could not help but think of the couple Guo Jing and Huang Rong in Jin Yong's masterpiece The Legend of the Condor Heroes. Dong Xue's charming appearance and intelligence were similar to Huang Rong's, while Ning Jing and the honest and chivalrous Guo Jing's names only differed by one word.
"If you two want to practice martial arts, you can come to me. Just come to the courtyard of the Shack every day." When Li Mu saw them off, he made a promise and gave each of them a jade pendant in return for the first time. The jade pendant was actually a one-time protective treasure refined by Li Mu himself.
After seeing Ning Jing and Dong Xue off, Li Mu thought for a while and hung a notice at the gate of the courtyard.
"I found a little white fox. Owner, please contact me as soon as possible."
Then, he returned to the courtyard and practiced the Sword-commanding Style.
With the improvement of martial arts cultivation, Li Mu gradually felt that he needed a broadsword.
A good broadsword.
It was a Dao Artifact grade Dao as his Natal Weapon.
However, it was difficult, because in this world, warlocks could not refine Taoist instruments, and there was basically no way and place to cast Taoist instruments.
Li Mu decided to practice by himself.
…
…
Outside the Pig-Herding Alley.
"This couple can actually enter the courtyard of the Shack? Who are they? "
"This is the first time someone has entered the courtyard of the Shack, isn't it?"
"Go and investigate."
Several eyes were fixed on the receding figures of Ning Jing and Dong Xue.
Half an hour later.
In the Moon-hugging House.
"Your Highness, that man is Ning Jing, the illegitimate son of Ning's Mansion. The woman used to be the maid of Li Mu's mother. Later, she married Ning Jing …" A detailed file about Ning's Mansion, Ning Rushan, Ning Jing, and Dong Xue was placed on the table of the second prince.
"Just a nobody." The second prince glanced at it and lost interest.
"Do as you see fit." He threw the file directly into the dustbin.
In the past few days, he had been busy with other things and had not had time to clean up the Shack.
Moreover, as a self-proclaimed superior, he preferred to manipulate others and do things according to his own will, instead of doing everything by himself. In the eyes of the second prince, Li Mu's performance on the night of the Musical House and Li Mu's deployment of the Five-colored Holy Light in the courtyard of the Shack might be very dazzling, but he still did not take it seriously.
Because he had absolute confidence that he could crush Li Mu.
He also liked to see those who thought they were in control of their own fate gloating, but in the end, they found that in fact, their fate had always been in his hands. When those so-called geniuses, myths, and legends showed desperate and shocked expressions in front of him, that was the most exciting moment for him.
And now, his attitude toward Li Mu was probably the same.
He just wanted to see how far this so-called genius of poetry and martial arts could jump.
In his eyes, the current Li Mu was not enough for him to take action in person.
The person who handed over the information was Liu Chenglong. After hearing the second prince's words, he knew what to do and said, "I see."
He turned around and walked out of the second prince's room and met the head of the Ghost Sect.
This time, a total of 20 masters of the Ghost Sect, including the head of the sect, came to Chang 'an City. At the beginning, the head of the Ghost Sect was extremely arrogant, and his subordinates were also extremely unruly. When they first met the second prince, they directly criticized him. He sent two elders to assist the second prince, not to die, and wanted the second prince to be responsible for the death of the two ghosts.
However, after a "secret talk" between the second prince and the head of the Ghost Sect, all this changed.
The head of the Ghost Sect in front of them was like a hedgehog with all its thorns pulled out. In front of the second prince's core members, he behaved extremely smoothly.
"Your Honor Liu, have you found out who killed our two protectors?" the head of the Ghost Sect asked with a smile.
The zombie's smiling expression was actually uglier than crying.
Of course, Liu Chenglong did not find out.
He had some speculations in his mind, but there was no evidence.
However, this did not prevent him from doing something at all.
From the first time they met to the present, after hanging the head of the Ghost Sect for a few days, Liu Chenglong seized the opportunity and finally gave some clues. He said with great certainty, "Head, if the investigation is correct, I can be sure that it should be Li Mu who killed the two elders of your sect."
…
…
The Flying Eagle Sword hovered in the air, like a divine dragon passing through the sky, and the sword light appeared and disappeared.
Faintly discernible low rumbles of thunder could be heard from the Soaring Eagle Sword's killing trajectory.
"The old faker once said that the object-controlling stage is also divided into different realms. Take the sword-controlling as an example, the first stage is the Sword Qi Emptying, the second stage is the thunderous sound of the sword, and the third stage is the sword light turning into a rainbow …"
In his mind, Li Mu tried hard to recall some words that the old faker had said in the past.
The thunderous sound of the Flying Eagle Sword was very weak, but it could be counted as entering the second stage.
The cultivation of the Sword-commanding Style was extremely fast.
In just one night, Li Mu's Sword-commanding Art had already surpassed that of Chu Nantian, the future leader of the Heaven Sword Sect. If Li Mu and Chu Nantian used the Sword-commanding Art at the same time, Li Mu would be able to crack his opponent's sword style and take his life in a split second.
However, Li Mu was still not satisfied.
He was about to further ponder, when suddenly —
Boom!
The whole yard of the Shack suddenly shook violently.
The beautiful girls who were cultivating in the yard were startled and screamed.
"Li Mu, get out and die."
A gloomy voice, as if from the hell, crossed the tactical deployment of the Shack and came in bit by bit.
"Huh?"
Li Mu's face changed slightly.
"There is a master."
"Since he can shake the five-elements tactical deployment and transmit his voice through the tactical deployment, he is definitely a master among masters."
"A rare master."
With a stir of his mind, his spiritual force communicated with the five-elements tactical deployment.
The scene outside the tactical deployment appeared in his mind.
Four burly figures in black robes were standing at the gate of the yard of the Shack.
The one who spoke was an extremely burly figure that looked like a giant zombie. There was not the slightest aura of a living person on his body, as if he was a dead person. His face under the black robe was pale, but his lips were a strange scarlet red, as if he had swallowed fresh blood. His eyes were even blood-red, without the slightest human emotion.
"Zombies?"
At first glance, he knew that they were people from the sect of the two monsters in the netherworld.
Previously, Zheng Cunjian had sent him information about the Ghost Sect.
However, it should not be the head of the Ghost Sect.
Because it was rumored that the head of the Ghost Sect was already a peerless master in the Celestial Being Realm.
At this time, the four black-robed monsters outside the yard of the Shack gave Li Mu a very strong feeling. It could be said that they were the most terrible opponents he had encountered since he started his cultivation. However, they should still be in the Natural Realm, not the Celestial Being Realm.
Among the four people, any one of them was stronger than Chu Nantian.
They were the real experts of the older generation who walked out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
"They should be the four great devil zombies of the Ghost Sect mentioned in the information given by Zheng Cunjian. The weakest one has already transformed 50% of his internal qi into the natural qi of the Natural Realm, which is much higher than mine … It's tricky."
Li Mu felt the pressure.
However, he was very excited in his heart.
Another delivery man came to his door.
His magical object-controlling skill had reached the primary level and entered the thunderous stage. It was just the right time to test it in actual combat.
