"I'll make it in time. I'll make it in time."
Liu Chong rushed all the way to Taibai County without eating or drinking. Until now, he was so loyal to Huang Shengyi that he even ignored his beloved white crane and rushed back desperately. Finally, it took him one day less than the time he left to return to Taibai County.
"In Taibai County, there is no aura of the battle between Sages. Head must not have taken action. I can make it in time." Liu Chong rode on the white crane and saw that Taibai County was peaceful. He was ecstatic and said, "Great. Fortunately, I found a secret treasure in Guanshan City of the Holy Clan that can suppress the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. As long as I give it to Head, he can completely restrain Li Mu's means …"
He drove the white crane and swooped directly to Taibai County like an arrow.
"Head Huang, I, Liu Chong, am coming …" He swooped down to Taibai County.
At the gate of the county government.
Li Mu was about to drag the fainted Huang Shengyi back to the county government to open the package when he heard Liu Chong's shout. Then, he saw a huge white crane swooping down from the sky.
"Head Huang, be careful of Li Mu. This guy can control the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth in the county. I brought the Zhen Formation Tablet, which can suppress the star array …" Liu Chong was afraid of being blamed by Huang Shengyi because of Huang Wenyuan's death, so he shouted from a distance to show his intention. He wanted to make a contribution!
Li Mu shaded the sun with his hand and looked up. He was amused.
"Wow, this old guy is back again."
After letting him go last time, Li Mu thought about it again and again and felt deeply guilty. Liu Chong worked so hard to deliver the package. What kind of spirit did he have? However, he only took a part of it and then drove him away. In fact, Liu Chong's white crane was very good-looking and could be kept …
He did not expect that Liu Chong would actually return.
"What a good guy!"
Li Mu smiled and waved at him, saying, "Over here, over here. Haha, come on, your Head Huang is here."
Liu Chong jumped off the white crane. He was still wondering why Li Mu was so happy. But when he looked again, he saw a man lying on the ground with a bloody nose and a swollen face. Why did that man's figure and clothes look so familiar? However, he would rather die than think of Huang Shengyi. But when he heard Li Mu's words, his face darkened in an instant.
Was it really Landlord Huang?
Impossible.
What kind of joke was this?
Liu Chong could not believe it.
But when he took a closer look at Li Mu, he was so scared that he almost peed his pants. It was really Head Huang, a Semi-Sage, who had been beaten into a pig's head and passed out on the ground. He had lost all his elegance. But when he looked at Li Mu again, he found that he was not injured at all … "What the hell is going on?"
"What did you just say? Formation Stabilizing Stele? "Li Mu greeted him" warmly "and said," Take it out and let me see. "
"Uh, I'm so sorry, Your Honor Li. You may have misheard. I accidentally got lost and came back to Taibai County. I have to go back …" Liu Chong explained in a hurry with a dark face. Then, he turned around and was about to ride the white crane away.
"Hey, don't go. I have something to discuss with you." Li Mu raised his hand to stop him and said, "Hey? Don't go … You don't listen to me, do you? Play dumb? Hey, come on down. Give it to me. "
He raised his hand and a stream of natural qi directly suppressed Liu Chong.
"Your bird is good." Li Mu said with a smile, "I think this bird is destined to be with me." He reached out to touch the white crane. He was just pretending, but to his surprise, the white crane was very comfortable. It rubbed its head against Li Mu's palm and let out an intimate low cry. Li Mu was quite surprised. He laughed and said, "See? It wants to recognize me as its master …"
Li Mu practiced the Xiantian Skill. After entering the Natural Realm, the Natural qi was the purest and most ethereal. For some spiritual birds and beasts, it was far more attractive than ordinary people. So, the scene of being rejected when he tamed the chrysanthemum leopard would certainly not happen.
Liu Chong burst into tears.
What else could he say?
He was a fish on the chopping block. Even a fart was a crime and could be the reason for being punished.
Therefore, he honestly did not utter a single word of objection. Instead, he stared at the white crane with grief and indignation, knowing that his beloved spiritual bird would say goodbye to him from now on. At that moment, he simply felt that his woman had been snatched away by Li Mu.
But, losing a bird was better than losing a life.
In the end, Liu Chong obediently took out the Delatory-suppressing Tablet that he had specially found in Guanshan City and handed it to Li Mu. As for the many resources he had supplied in Guanshan City, Li Mu also took them all, leaving nothing behind.
"Old man, you are a good man." Li Mu patted Liu Chong's shoulder happily and said, "To tell you the truth, when I first saw you that day, I had a feeling that you were a forthright and generous man. But it turns out that I was right. You actually rushed back to Guanshan City day and night and brought me so much gold, silver, jade, and other resources. Thank you so much."
Liu Chong looked at Li Mu with grief and indignation, but he could not say a word.
He didn't want the reputation of being generous and generous at all.
Fortunately, Li Mu let Liu Chong go in the end.
He was not a murderous devil. If he killed anyone he caught, what would he do?
People on Earth should not be so unfriendly.
Anyway, in this battle, in addition to the county people, guards, and officials in Taibai County, Li Mu had already noticed the martial arts masters on the distant mountains and ancient trees. Therefore, the news would definitely spread out like a hurricane. Even if Liu Chong was detained here, the news would also spread to Guanshan Pasture. So, it was meaningless.
"Let's go."
Li Mu waved his hand and dragged Huang Shengyi, the Fire Devil, who was in a coma, to the old county yamen's yard.
He was really in a hurry.
Because the Samsara Knife was indeed refined in the tactical deployment with the Five Elements Sky-flipping Seal as the core. Calculating the time, it was almost finished. Li Mu really had to hurry to refine his own broadsword.
The onlookers dispersed.
Feng Yuanxing, Ma Junwu, and Zhen Meng, as well as a group of soldiers and guards, stood on the street and recovered from the shock. Everyone's face was flushed with excitement.
His Honor won.
And he won so cleanly.
This meant that Taibai County was really going to rise when the tribulation dispersed and the light came.
That was because an existence who could knock down a Semi-Sage with a few punches and kicks was enough to support a force no matter where it was in the Divine Land. Even the nine Holy Clans had to give enough respect to such an extreme expert.
At this level, he was qualified to talk to the top nine Holy Clans, the three empires, and many forces.
Everything no longer needed to be solved by fighting and killing.
It was believed that the Guanshan Pasture, one of the top nine Holy Clans, would not blindly consider suppressing, conquering, and killing Taibai County.
This was because this was not in their interest. They had to treat Saints with respect because Saints were too powerful and had tenacious vitality. They were very difficult to kill. Once a Saint was angered, they would take revenge by any means. Even the Divine Sect and the Empire would not suffer great losses.
After this battle, the prestige of Taibai County was thoroughly spread.
From then on, Taibai County would become a very special place. With a Sage in charge, who dared to look down on it?
Even the Western Qin Empire could no longer control it as before. Instead, it had to give various preferential policies and benefits to win over the county magistrate.
To the Western Qin Empire, the addition of a new Sage was undoubtedly great news. Moreover, the Sage was an official of the empire. As long as they did not provoke him and carefully roped him in, the strength of the Western Qin Empire would soar, and they would have one more trump card to add weight to the other empires.
As for Feng Yuanxing and the others, as the trusted subordinates of the county magistrate, their status instantly soared. No, it should be said that they had a meteoric rise. As the trusted subordinates of the sage, even the prime minister of the empire had to think highly of them, right?
How could they not be excited?
Now, it seemed that their previous persistence and risky choice were simply brilliant. At that time, they had all put their bets on Li Mu. Especially after learning that Huang Wenyuan was the grandson of the deputy head of the Guanshan Pasture, they still supported Li Mu. That was almost like gambling with their lives … Now, they had made the right bet.
The whole Taibai County was filled with such a joyful atmosphere.
However, there were some people who were absolutely unable to feel happy.
Li Gang, who was standing on top of the clouds thousands of meters above the county, looked as if he had just eaten a dead rat.
His face was gloomy, and there was a hint of viciousness on his elegant and charming face.
"Why?"
Li Gang asked himself.
He knew he had made a big mistake.
Before, he advised the crown prince to directly submit a petition to the cabinet and the emperor to punish Li Mu for killing the second prince. In that way, the negative impact of the second prince's death on the Prince Group could be minimized. Li Mu would be the scapegoat, and the Prince Group would reap the benefits. That was perfect. Moreover, his action of punishing his family for justice was undoubtedly a plus.
For Li Gang, it was acceptable to trade the life of an uncontrollable bastard for huge political and reputation benefits. It was a big profit.
But now …
Li Gang had to think about how to explain to the crown prince.
Li Mu could defeat a Semi-Sage, so his value suddenly became huge. Even if he killed the second prince, he would be the target of recruitment. Even if the emperor of the Western Qin finished his closed-door training, he would not reprimand Li Mu for the death of the second prince.
But now, Li Gang only hoped that the crown prince's petition had not been sent to the cabinet.
Otherwise, the crown prince would become a joke.
And the culprit was Li Gang.
"What a mistake!"
Li Gang was very depressed. He directly turned into a jet of sword light and returned to Chang 'an.
Zhao Xue looked at the direction Li Gang disappeared and smiled.
"Let's go." He turned around and left with Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu said, "Master, why don't you go to the county and meet Li Mu? Today, you came with good intentions. Although you didn't help much in the end, you have shown your kindness. "
"The friendship between gentlemen is as plain as water. We didn't help Li Mu. Why should I show him kindness because of the so-called good intentions?" Zhao Xue said with a smile.
He was in white, and his hair was as white as snow. Wrapped in the sword light, he looked like an immortal. His temperament was free and easy, as if he was a god.
That day, he just came to protect a genius of the Western Qin.
