The baby girl's eyes were like black gems, without any impurities. They were as pure as the spring water in the mountains for a hundred years, which calmed Li Mu's agitated heart before he knew it.
Since he found the little girl in the collapsed attic in Tiger Hiding City, Li Mu had held her in his arms and never let her go.
The baby girl's mother had been buried.
The little girl was very attached to Li Mu.
In particular, after Li Mu used the wood qi of the Eastern Wood Emperor to comb the little girl's body and replenish her blood and qi, she was very obedient and affectionate in Li Mu's arms. When she saw Li Mu, she would let out the pure laughter of a baby.
"Your Honor, something happened in the main mansion." As soon as they entered the city, a chiliarch of the Great Moon Empire rushed over.
After hearing that, Li Mu became restless again.
"Let's go and have a look." Holding the baby girl in his arms, he comforted her and laughed, and walked unhurriedly toward the main mansion.
Soon, there was a burst of shouting in front of him, and the gate of the main mansion was in sight.
"Kill Li Mu!"
"Let Li Mu come out!"
"Kill these evil remnants of the Great Moon Empire first. Let's see if Li Mu will show up."
All kinds of shouts and shouts made Li Mu feel as if he had come to a public trial. He saw that Zhang San and Mu Qing were trying their best to maintain order, but they couldn't stop the agitated crowd.
The faces that claimed to be righteous but were actually a little ferocious because of excitement were constantly magnified in Li Mu's eyes.
"Is Li Mu afraid? Haha, it doesn't matter. As long as he hands over the magic Cultivation Methods and treasures, we can spare his life. "
"No, he also has to give up Taibai City. The regicide doesn't deserve to live in such a blessed land."
"He will seal his cultivation and retire for 500 years."
"Haha, Li Mu also has this day."
Humans were always strange creatures. Most people, when they were alone, would always be very calm and steady. They would think twice before they acted. However, when there were too many people gathered together and they were in a state of excitement and radicalism, even the most rational person would be infected and become crazy.
Looking at these people in front of him, Li Mu suddenly felt a little ridiculous.
These people all had extraordinary cultivation bases. They were unfamiliar faces that he had never seen before, but judging from their attire, they were most likely important figures from ancient sects and aristocratic families. They had good manners and extraordinary temperaments, some of them were noble, some of them were sharp, and one could tell that they were not ordinary people.
However, it was these big shots who looked more ferocious than the beggars on the street.
Things had already escalated to this extent?
Li Mu listened to their shouts with a weird expression on his face.
What right did these people have to think that he was afraid of them?
Why did he feel like he was already in their hands?
Just because he had not paid attention to them for the past few days?
Were they stupid?
Or was his brain kicked by a donkey?
Holding the baby girl in his arms, Li Mu found the scene a little funny, so he waved his hand and the soldiers stopped to accompany Li Mu. They stood on the periphery and watched quietly.
At the gate of the main residence, Zhang San and Mu Qing, the two remaining experts of the Great Moon Empire's army, were in an extremely sorry state. Dozens of soldiers of the Great Moon Empire who were maintaining order were directly sent flying. They vomited blood and were seriously injured as they crashed into the main residence.
The so-called big shots were approaching the gate of the main mansion step by step.
"Li Mu's killing is second nature. He deserves to die."
"At such a young age, he has killed so many people. He even doesn't take the emperor seriously. What will he become when he grows up?"
Someone said loudly.
The coldness in Li Mu's eyes spread like a layer of ice.
"Killing?"
He directly laughed.
Under Emperor Qin Ming's order, the Western Qin's army killed millions of innocent people in the 10 cities and nine counties. Such a massacre was like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. At that time, those people hid in the deep mountains and forests and did not say anything. They did not even dare to let out a fart. They turned a blind eye to it and did not blame Emperor Qin Ming.
But now, these people jumped out to blame him?
Li Mu suddenly felt that his annoyance these days was a little … boring, wasn't it?
On each of those people's faces, there were thousands of kinds of greed, desire, fanaticism, ferocity, gloominess, sneer, madness, cruelty, and secret joy … All the expressions gradually converged into two words in Li Mu's eyes.
They bullied the weak and feared the strong.
Then, he lowered his head and looked at the baby in his arms.
The little baby girl was asleep with a smile on her face. She had two warm dimples, long eyelashes, and a sweet expression. One of her little hands was still tightly grasping Li Mu's clothes … It was a very quiet picture, but it was fascinating.
The annoyance in his heart quickly dissipated.
In the Legend of the Condor Heroes, Guo Jing's confusion and doubts about the theory of killing people with martial arts were finally answered by the Nine-fingered Divine Beggar, Hong Qigong.
In his life, the Northern Beggar had killed many people, but each of them deserved to die. He was upright and aboveboard, and there was no filth in his actions. In the face of Qiu Qianren's questioning, the Eastern Heretic, the Western Poison, the Southern Emperor, Huang Rong, and the others were all speechless. Only Hong Qigong's righteous words finally made Qiu Qianren unable to refute.
Li Mu already knew the answer.
The answer given by Old Master Jin Yong was that he had a clear conscience.
When Li Mu was sad because of the death of Caicai and her granddaughter, as well as Ning Jing and his wife, he felt guilty. He felt that he did not arrive in time to save them, so he was annoyed and confused.
Therefore, he ignored the answer.
But at this time, looking at the sweet baby girl in his arms and the despicable behavior of the big shots in front of the mansion, Li Mu suddenly had such an idea. "If I kill all the bad guys, will the good guys be saved?"
"Have I been too overcautious and merciful before?"
He always felt that he was a passerby in this world, like a traveler in a hurry. He stayed in the host's house for a few days and was about to leave. Therefore, he hated the struggle for hegemony and the deceit. If it were not for the fact that his family and friends were trapped, he rarely took action. He looked at everything in this world from the perspective of an outsider.
To describe it in one word, he was too "passive".
As a result, when Yu Hualong invited him to stay in the Great Moon Empire to attack the city, he politely refused. Or to put it another way, Li Mu fled in embarrassment.
It was as if the entire Hidden Tiger City was destroyed in the massacre.
But now, Li Mu felt that he should not be a traveler.
On the road of life, there was no distinction between the host and the guest. Wherever you went, you were the master of that place.
Therefore, from the perspective of a guest, tasting the bitterness and bitterness of the host, this was the real reason why he had been so complicated and resentful these days.
But if he looked at it from the perspective of the host, it would be different.
There was still hope for Yu Hualong to come back to life. And the Hidden Tiger City, which was like a bloody prison, was not really hopeless. At least there was a little baby girl who survived. Like a spark, she could rebuild the Hidden Tiger City sooner or later.
All these could be made up for.
How to make up for it?
Stop killing by killing.
Stop fighting by martial arts.
Only by pulling out the weeds of justice could the wheat sprout grow well.
So, what was the purpose of practicing martial arts?
To enforce justice on behalf of heaven.
What was heaven?
The good and evil in one's heart was heaven.
Rewarding the good and punishing the evil was the way of heaven.
"If there is no way of heaven, then let me enforce justice on behalf of heaven."
That was the meaning of Li Mu's self-cultivation and borrowing power from heaven and earth.
The word "chivalrous" encompassed everything.
Now, Li Mu felt that Hong Qigong's words of "having a clear conscience" could also be applied to himself.
Then, his eyes became clear again.
Li Mu exhaled a long breath of turbid air. Suddenly, he felt unprecedentedly relaxed. There was a feeling of sudden enlightenment in front of him. The fog and irritation in his heart seemed to be blown away by a gust of strong wind.
From this moment on, he was the master.
He lowered his head and gently kissed the sleeping baby girl.
"Since you are here, take things as they come. From now on, you will be called Li Anzhi," Li Mu said in a low voice.
That sentence was also given to himself.
"Since I am here, take things as they come."
He stepped forward step by step and parted the crowd.
A few impassioned martial arts magnates were about to rush into the mansion when they felt a huge force surging towards them and were pushed away by the people behind them. They were instantly enraged. When they looked back, they saw a young man in ordinary clothes, with short hair and a face full of dust. He looked a little tired and haggard, but his eyes were shining brightly. He was holding a sleeping baby girl in his arms and squeezed through the crowd from behind.
"Who are you?"
"Which sect are you from?"
"Where did this little beggar come from …"
The manic and excited experts blurted out curses, thinking that the young man was the future leader of a sect who came to Longcheng Pass to fish in troubled waters.
But Qi Huai, who was on the second floor of the opposite building, slightly narrowed his eyes.
The middle-aged scholar standing beside Bai Mochou also had a trace of strange light in his eyes.
When Qin Zhen looked at the young man holding the baby girl, he could not help but feel sad. The Taibai poetry and martial arts immortal, who was arrogant and unbridled in his memory, had become so haggard, as if he had aged many years, and there was even blue stubble on his chin.
Qin Zheng also recognized that the dirty young man was Li Mu, the God of Massacre who killed his father and made the royal family of the Western Qin restless. But he could not hate him at all, because he basically had no memory of his father, Emperor Qin Ming.
Xu Wan 'er, Lu Shengnan, and the others opened their mouths to say something, but were stopped by Bai Mochou.
The middle-aged scholar saw all this and did not speak.
"Hey, you are still squeezing?"
"Get out."
Zhou Wu, the Supreme Guardian of Rules of the Northern Brilliance Sect, waved his sleeve, and a huge force gushed out, directly shaking and killing the young man who was squeezing in from the front. But to his horror, the force of his sleeve, which was powerful enough to split a mountain, fell on the young man, but disappeared without a trace like a clay ox falling into the sea.
At this time, even if he was a fool, he also knew that something was wrong.
"Who … who are you?" Zhou Wu hurriedly stepped back.
The excited and radical crowd around also noticed the appearance of Li Mu.
At this time, Li Mu had squeezed to the gate of the mansion.
"Your Honor."
"Your Honor, you're back."
Zhang San and Mu Qing were both overjoyed, but then they observed Li Mu's state with some concern.
Li Mu turned around and looked at the unfamiliar faces below. He smiled, revealing his snow-white teeth, and said, "Thank you, everyone, for coming all the way here to remind me. All of you look extraordinary and dignified. No wonder you are the prestigious seniors who have achieved success in martial arts cultivation. In return, today, I will send all of you to paradise."
Stop the war with martial arts and enforce justice on behalf of heaven.
One word, kill.
