The entire Taibai County was trembling under the pressure of the Half-step Sage.
Huang Shengyi, who came with hatred and rage, was ferocious. The red flame covered the sky of Taibai County like a sea of blood. All the county residents, soldiers, and officials looked up in horror. They could not see the sun and the white clouds. In their eyes, there was only blood, as if it was the end of the world.
The revenge of the Guanshan Pasture finally came.
Feng Yuanxing's heart suddenly trembled.
His mentality was exactly the same as that of almost every person in Taibai County.
Except for some children who didn't know what the Guanshan Pasture was, almost everyone was worried about this scene these days.
Yes, the great power that the county magistrate showed that day did inject a shot of adrenaline into them. In the past few days, there was no turmoil in the county. However, to really reassure everyone, today's battle was the most important. If the county magistrate could withstand the pressure this time, Taibai County could be regarded as the real rise.
For a time, countless people came to the street.
Everyone was praying for the county magistrate in their hearts, silently shouting and cheering.
The Guanshan Pasture was the patron saint of the Qin people. It saved the Xia Dynasty from collapse countless times. But most of the time, this kind of protection was aimed at the imperial court. For the ordinary people, they might not have a deep feeling, especially the people in Taibai County. They only knew that after the young county magistrate came to Taibai County, he cleaned up all kinds of tumors and turbid air in the county and let them live a good life.
What was more, that day, Huang Wenyuan slaughtered the civilians and guards in the county like a butcher. Li Mu killed Huang Wenyuan for the sake of the county people and for the revenge of the people.
This time, between the Holy Clan, which was like the patron saint of the empire, and Li Mu, the simple and straightforward villagers undoubtedly chose to stand on Li Mu's side.
But, was it useful for them to stand on the side?
…
"Stupid."
A kilometer away from Taibai County, high in the sky, Li Gang blurted out such a word.
Standing on the clouds and looking down from a distance, he was shocked by the overwhelming pressure of the Sage Huang Shengyi. Then, when he saw nearly ten thousand county residents coming out of their houses to the streets to cheer for Li Mu, his face changed slightly. Li Mu's prestige and popularity in the county surprised him.
However, it was merely an accident.
In this world where only the strong were respected, things like the people's hearts were often meaningless. Only the sword and the knife, the blood and the fire were the eternal dominators. But Li Mu actually put his mind on this. Should he be called stupid or naive?
Li Gang came to watch the battle.
He did not come to the battle where Li Mu killed Huang Wenyuan and captured Liu Chong. After that, he rather regretted it. Therefore, he calculated the time when Huang Wenyuan, the Fire Devil, attacked Taibai County and came to watch from afar.
He wanted to know what kind of power Li Mu had mastered.
However, deep in his heart, Li Gang was more optimistic about Huang Shengyi.
The title of the Fire Devil was not undeserved. Before Li Gang became famous, Huang Shengyi was already the most eye-catching Heavenly Talent of the Western Qin. His Fire Fighting Method was unyielding. No one knew how many powerful demons and enemies he had killed. He was a ruthless figure who made his name by stepping on piles of bones. Later, he joined the Guanshan Pasture and was valued by Li Poyue, the Guanshan Master. Li Poyue taught him the Sage Cultivation Method. In less than 30 years, he broke through the barrier and entered the half-step Sage Realm.
Huang Shengyi's strength ranked among the top in the entire Divine Land.
Such a figure who stood at the peak of martial arts must have experienced countless storms in his life. There was no reason for him to fail in a small puddle like Taibai County.
"It's good that this unfilial son is dead. Anyway, I can't use him."
On Li Gang's handsome and refined face, there was cruelty and callousness that was as cold as ice.
All of a sudden, he felt something and looked to the northwest.
Two beams of sword light, like startling rainbows, pierced through the sky, and the coldness like the snow on the Taibai Peak instantly filled the sky. "This familiar Sword Qi …" Li Gang's mouth slightly curved.
In the distant sky, on a white cloud that had been struck by the sword intent, a handsome and elegant pair of Sword Immortal master and disciple in white clothes came to a stop.
Zhao Xue, the Taibai Sword God, had snow-white hair and was handsome. Thousands of meters in the sky, when Li Gang saw him, he also saw the Secular Sword Whiz standing on the top of the clouds.
Their eyes met, as if the sword light was fighting.
The two Life Swords of the Western Qin had not seen each other since the battle in the capital 20 years ago. But no one expected that they would meet again under such circumstances. One was the winner who had triumphed in the capital, and the other was the loser who had retreated in sadness. The superiority of the two swords 20 years ago had obviously been diluted by the passage of time.
Li Gang smiled faintly and looked at Zhao Xue, but he did not take the initiative to speak.
As the winner, he had a psychological advantage.
Zhao Xue smiled faintly, cupped his hands, and said, "I haven't seen you for 20 years. I didn't expect to meet you today. Brother Li, you are still as elegant as before." He was very generous and calm, and did not seem to take the defeat in the past to heart.
Li Gang nodded and said, "Head Zhao, you came in a hurry. Do you want to enter the field?"
Zhao Xue said, "I'm going to ask you the same question."
Li Gang looked at the direction of Taibai County indifferently and said, "I just want to watch. Li Mu reaped what he sowed. He killed Huang Wenyuan and should give the Huang family an explanation. What's more, Huang Wenyuan was an official appointed by the imperial court. He was killed in the process of taking office. As his superior, I can't ignore it. What do you think, Head Zhao?"
Zhao Xue nodded.
He had never held any grudges against Li Gang, even though the battle twenty years ago had changed the course of his life. However, he was curious as to why Li Gang was so indifferent to his own son.
Because logically speaking, for Li Gang, who was obsessed with power and influence, such a talented son should be a natural assistant. Wouldn't it be like adding wings to a tiger if the father and the son joined hands?
"Li Mu is a genius and a hero of our Western Qin. He has a promising future. If it's practical, I'm willing to save his life." Zhao Xue said bluntly.
"Taibai Sword Faction has kept a low profile for 20 years. What? Head Zhao, you don't want to be left out?" Li Gang said with a faint sneer.
Zhao Xue did not say anything.
He did not want to say anything when they didn't get along.
Li Gang's force field surprised him. It seemed that he wanted to stop him from saving Li Mu.
But keeping a low profile did not mean forbearance.
As for whether he could save Li Mu in the end … he did not have much confidence in his heart. Because human strength was limited, but he would give it a try.
Zhao Xue looked at Taibai County, waiting for the situation to change.
If Li Mu could fight against Huang Shengyi, he might have a chance to survive today.
"Li Mu won't be a match for Head Huang." Li Gang seemed to see through Zhao Xue's mind and said calmly.
At this moment, Zhao Yu, who had been standing behind Zhao Xue and did not speak, suddenly felt an indescribable disgust for the magistrate of Chang 'an.
In the battle of Chang 'an, the Secular Sword Whiz, who killed the head of the Ghost Sect with a shocking sword strike, was so elegant and had the spirit of a celestial being. Originally, he was also the idol of the young Taibai Sword Faction, Zhao Yu, but now, this idol suddenly collapsed.
Zhao Yu could not understand, why would such a handsome man, just … just have to be so treacherous.
In addition to the two Vital Swords of the Western Qin, there were also some martial artists in the Chang 'an government who heard the news and came over. That day, when Huang Shengyi stormed to the Chang' an government office aggressively, it had alarmed countless martial artists. Therefore, following the clues, a large number of martial artists came to watch the battle. However, none of them dared to stand too close to the battle like experts like Li Gang and Zhao Xue. They all watched from the top of the mountains dozens of miles away.
How horrible the battle of the Sage Realm was!
For many martial artists, being able to watch the battle of the Sage was a lifetime thing to be proud of.
"Li Mu has caused a great disaster."
"The tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind."
"Haha, he is too arrogant."
"Today, Li Mu will die."
There were various opinions, but the only thing in common was that no one thought that Li Mu could survive this battle. The short and brilliant miracle of the poetry and martial arts was destined to come to an end today.
…
"Li Mu, get out and see me."
Huang Shengyi, the Fire Devil, was full of killing intent, and his voice was like thunder.
In the yard of the county government, everyone was shocked.
Shangguan Yuting looked at the figure in the sky who stirred the bloody clouds and fiery feathers like a devil, and she was very worried about Li Mu. She and her sisters came to the front yard and saw the little attendant Qing Feng, who was also worried. He turned his wheelchair and rushed to Li Mu's study.
At this time, they saw Li Mu hurriedly, jumping out of the room.
His flustered appearance caused the hearts of the beautiful girls to sink.
In the past, Li Mu had never been so impatient.
"Brother Mu …" Shangguan Yuting opened her mouth to say something, but she made up her mind to fight side by side with Li Mu. Even if she died, she would stand in front of Li Mu.
However, Li Mu just glanced at the crowd and waved at Shangguan Yuting, saying, "Go back, all of you. I'm going to open a large package. Hahaha … Finally, he's here. I thought the old guy wouldn't come."
He looked very excited.
Shangguan Yuting, the little attendant Qing Feng, and the group of beautiful girls were stunned.
"Li Mu …" Huang Shengyi roared again, "If you don't come out, I will …"
"I am coming. Don't worry, I am coming." Li Mu rushed out of the county government, jumped on a 20-meter-tall tree at the gate of the county government, and shouted to the sky, "Hahaha, a package. Why are you in such a hurry? Are you in a hurry?"
"You are Li Mu?" Huang Shengyi looked down, and his sharp eyes fell on Li Mu. His killing intent was boiling, and he said, "Young man, let me ask you, my grandson …"
"Yes, yes, yes." Li Mu nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and said, "Your grandson Huang Wenyuan was killed by me. That's right. It was me."
He looked as if he was afraid that others would fight with him for the crime of being the murderer.
Huang Shengyi, the Fire Devil, was baffled.
It was totally different from what he had imagined.
Shouldn't Li Mu be on his knees, explaining, quibbling, and begging for mercy?
At this time, he did not even know how to answer.
Li Mu stood on the top of the tree and said, "What are you waiting for? My Samsara Knife is still being refined in the tactical deployment, and I have no time to waste with you. You don't want to do it? Don't blame me for not respecting the old and loving the young. I will do it first, I am in a hurry. "
Without the Samsara Knife, Li Mu could not fly in the air.
He directly activated the formation, and all the yuan Qi in the entire White Sky Line City instantly froze. The sea of blood and scarlet fire clouds that Huang Shengyi had activated were like sand that had been blown away by the wind. In a manner that caused all the spectators' jaws to drop, they completely disappeared, as if they had never appeared in the first place …
