The next day.
The weather was gloomy. The temperature dropped sharply last night, and white frost covered Chang 'an City.
At about dawn, Li Mu returned to the courtyard of the Shack from the military cemetery.
Today was the day when he announced that he would go to the Hanshan Academy and the Fengming Academy to read the scriptures. Early in the morning, Li Mu ate the breakfast prepared by the beautiful girls, and then rode out of the Pig-Herding Alley from the Shack on the fat one-eyed chrysanthemum leopard.
He was holding the little white fox in his arms.
The little fox was becoming more and more clever. After staying in the Shack full of Spiritual Qi for a few days, its fur was as white as jade, and its eyes were like rubies. Every day, it stuck to Li Mu. When Li Mu was not there, it liked to curl up in Li Mu's study. The beautiful girls all loved this beautiful and lovely little fox, but only Shangguan Yuting could hold it occasionally. When others approached, the little fox would scream and show its teeth as if it was frightened.
Today, when Li Mu went out, the little fox grabbed his trouser leg and insisted on following him.
So, Li Mu took the little elf with him.
This was the first time that Li Mu walked out of the Pig-Herding Alley so openly, so it immediately attracted the attention of all parties. In fact, inside and outside the Pig-Herding Alley, there were actually many spies from all parties who were paying attention to Li Mu.
The news spread like wildfire.
Li Mu rode the black chrysanthemum leopard and walked leisurely on the street.
Some pedestrians who did not know what was going on cast curious eyes on him.
"Mummy, the little monk's leopard is so cute …" The eight-year-old daughter of a roadside vendor looked at Li Mu with sparkling eyes. In her opinion, a short-haired monk riding a leopard was very cool.
Li Mu secretly laughed.
These days, with the improvement of his cultivation and the opening of his horizons, his way of thinking changed a lot. He gradually abandoned the cautiousness that he had when he first came to this world, as if he was treading on thin ice. His mental state was much more relaxed, and the string of tension in his heart had also disappeared.
He was very relaxed.
"Well, I'm riding a black leopard and wearing clothes similar to Taoist clothes. It seems a bit like a character in the myths and legends of China on Earth." Li Mu suddenly realized that he seemed to be cosplaying Shen Gongbao, the villain in the Legend of Deification.
In the Apotheosized World, Junior Brother Shen's "Fellow Daoist, please wait a minute" had killed countless masters and sent them to the Apotheosized Stage. Seriously speaking, if Shen Gongbao had not diligently gathered so many masters to fight against Zhou Dynasty, the number of Immortals on the List of Deification might not have been enough.
This person was also a strange existence.
Li Mu lowered his head to look at the little fox in his arms. Suddenly, a thought struck him, and he said, "The Lost and Found notice has been posted for so long, but no one has come to claim you. I'm afraid your master doesn't want you anymore. Haha, stay by my side. Why don't I give you a name?"
"Chirp chirp." The little white fox could understand Li Mu's words and chirped happily.
Li Mu said, "Then I'll call you Daji from now on."
From Shen Gongbao to Daji, there was nothing wrong with this logic.
Moreover, Daji was really a vixen.
The little white fox obviously liked this name very much. It excitedly rubbed Li Mu's palm with its head and licked Li Mu's cheek with its pink tongue, "Chirp chirp, chirp chirp chirp!"
"Hey, I hope you won't turn against me when you know the origin of this name."
Li Mu thought. Soon, he arrived at the gate of Fengming Academy.
"Hey? Aren't we going to Hanshan Academy first? "
Li Mu was busy interacting with the little white fox, Daji, and did not notice that the chrysanthemum leopard had arrived at the gate of Fengming Academy first.
But it didn't matter.
At this time, there were already instructors and students waiting at the gate of Fengming Academy. When they saw Li Mu, they came to greet him.
In the eyes of most people in Chang 'an, Li Mu's reputation was still very decent and perfect. It could be said that he was a first-class scholar in the city today. Moreover, it was the guider himself who killed Jia Zuoren. So, because of the guidance of Dean Qu and the others, the Fengming Academy was not hostile to Li Mu.
"Dean Qu's injury has not recovered, so he can't greet you in person. He is waiting in the library in advance. Young Master Li, please." An old instructor with white hair and beard said politely.
Li Mu returned the salute and then entered Fengming Academy.
This was the first time he had entered the Academy of Poor Families in Chang 'an City. The scenery inside was quite tranquil. Both sides of the road were crowded with students of the academy. They were all dressed in neat school uniforms, which made them look plain. They were all the poor students who had come to watch Li Mu's arrival. They were all eager to catch a glimpse of the number one young talent in Chang' an City.
Li Mu was excellent in both poetry and martial arts. Several century-old and century-old poems were spread out. Li Mu was famous in Chang 'an City, especially in the eyes of these students. There were many people like Lei Yinyin who worshipped Li Mu in Fengming Academy.
Soon, he arrived at the gate of the library of Fengming Academy.
Dean Qu, who was holding a cane, and some instructors of the academy lined up in front of the altar at the gate of the library to greet him.
After a polite conversation, Li Mu was allowed to enter the library.
Relatively speaking, the atmosphere of Fengming Academy was much more open than that of Hanshan Academy.
Li Mu saw Lei Yinyin in the crowd.
The little girl seemed to be a little haggard.
Li Mu had a good impression of this little beauty. He thought of something and said, "Miss Lei, I'm not very clear about the classification of the subsets in the library. I don't know if you can help me to show the way." He was helping the little girl in a different way, so that she could read some books that could help her cultivation in the library.
Lei Yinyin was stunned, and then her face showed joy. But soon, she thought of something and hesitated, "I …"
Dean Qu immediately said, "That's right. Yinyin, hurry to show the way for Young Master Li."
Lei Yinyin glanced at Dean Qu. This morning was the deadline for her to go to Qing Sha Clan to 'walk into the trap'. In her heart, of course, she had infinite hope to lead the way for her idol. But it would take at least a few days to enter the library. Once the deadline was missed, the whole Fengming Academy would be destroyed.
Li Mu practiced the Xiantian Skill, so his intuition was very sharp. When he saw such an expression, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"Little Yinyin, are you in any trouble?" he said with a smile.
A trace of panic appeared on Lei Yinyin's face. She quickly shook her head and said, "I … I'm fine. It's just …" She was just a sixteen-year-old girl. Even if she was mentally tough, how could she hide her worry when encountering such a thing?
At this time, Dean Qu couldn't help it. He simply put down his old face and told Li Mu about the "Red-hair Killing Invitation". He said, "Young Master Li, you are not a member of our Fengming Academy, and you are just ordinary friends with Yinyin. As an old man, I have no right to ask you to help me, but …"
"You don't have to say it." Li Mu waved his hand and said, "I won't ignore this matter."
Dean Qu was stunned, and then his old face showed great joy.
He didn't expect that Li Mu would agree so quickly and firmly.
There was a burst of cheers from the surrounding students and instructors.
On that day, He Yunxiang came to the Fengming Academy for the second time, holding the "Red-hair Killing Invitation". When he showed off his power again, no one in the entire academy could resist him. For the first time, these hot-blooded and idealistic students felt their powerlessness and weakness under the suppression of violence and power. It was a kind of despair that they could not change the situation even if they fought desperately and risked their lives.
In the whole academy, no one was qualified to support the sky that was about to collapse.
But now, a hero appeared.
Li Mu, a name that represented legend and miracle.
However, could he fight against the matchless masters in the Celestial Being Realm?
Lei Yinyin had such concerns in her heart.
What she was most afraid of was that because of her, the legend of Li Mu would be destroyed. She was not a fool. Naturally, she could see that Li Mu's advantage lay in the long run. Decades later, Li Mu would become a Celestial Being and could defeat everything. But now …
Li Mu said, "Today, I won't go to the library to read scriptures. I'll go to Hanshan Academy first."
He looked at Lei Yinyin and said, "You go with me. I'd like to see who wants to hurt my friend."
Lei Yinyin's eyes suddenly became a little wet.
Friend.
That was a very sacred word.
Dean Qu looked at Li Mu, Lei Yinyin, and the young students and instructors who were cheering around, and could not help but sigh with emotion. Some people were born to be heroes, such as Li Mu, while some people, even if they got lucky and became stronger, were just clowns, such as He Yunxiang.
He abandoned everything at the moment and built Fengming Academy. Didn't he hope to cultivate more heroes?
Don't forget your original intention.
…
…
The news spread like a hurricane.
Li Mu, the poetry and martial arts immortal, was furious because of a female student in Fengming Academy. He wanted to go to Hanshan Academy to denounce the "Red-hair Killing God" in the Celestial Being Realm.
In the mysterious Chang 'an City, the atmosphere was subtle. Li Mu himself was the focus of all parties, so such news naturally spread very quickly.
Before Li Mu and his companions arrived at Hanshan Academy, the leaders of the major forces had already heard the news.
In Hanshan Academy, "Red-hair Killing God" Zhang Bulao also knew in advance after He Yunxiang reported.
"Furious because of a beauty?"
Zhang Bulao smiled calmly.
"He is still too young.
"He is so impatient. Even if he is talented, so what?"
"So many arrogant and ignorant geniuses have died. Even if they were brilliant when they were alive, they are still silent after death, aren't they?"
"In about 10 minutes, they will arrive," He Yunxiang said.
Zhang Bulao smiled and said, "Let him come."
To be honest, no matter how famous Li Mu was before, no matter what miracles he created, no matter how excellent he was in poetry and martial arts, in Zhang Bulao's eyes, it was simply a joke. In front of the Celestial Being Realm, what miracle was a little Natural Expert?
Young people were not necessarily good.
People chased after some useless records. What was the point of breaking records and entering a certain realm?
Everything depended on one's true strength.
Among the leaders of the top nine Holy Clans, there was one who only suffered defeats in the first hundred years. He wasted his time and became a nobody. Later on, he was a late bloomer. Once he achieved enlightenment, he was like a hidden dragon rising to the sky, and his name shook the world … Therefore, all the potential and trend were fake.
The most real thing was the current strength.
He believed that Li Mu, who was excellent in poetry and martial arts, would soon understand this.
