Those who landed on the ground were six experts in the Natural Realm. They were all dressed differently and did not have a uniform uniform. The one who spoke was a young man in a blue robe. He was dressed like a young hero and carried a long sword on his back. His face was full of arrogance, and he looked at Li Mu with ridicule and a sense of superiority. He looked at Li Mu as if he was a toy.
However, Li Mu was naked and had no hair or eyebrows tied around his waist. He didn't look good, so it was not surprising that he was called a wild monkey.
The leader of the six Natural Experts was a bearded man in his thirties. He looked Li Mu up and down and said, "What monkey? You are a savage on the edge of the Evil Dragon Mountain … Hey, did you see a demoness in green?"
At that moment, Li Mu clearly sensed a wisp of energy fluctuation coming from the direction of the rock at the bottom of the pool behind him. Obviously, the "green mermaid" hiding in the dark could hear everything that happened on the shore and was extremely nervous.
But these Natural Experts obviously didn't notice it.
After all, their perception was much weaker than Li Mu's.
Li Mu didn't say anything and just shook his head.
"You really didn't see her?" The young man in a blue robe drew out the long sword on his waist and pointed at Li Mu's eyebrows. He said bluntly, "I can tell you that the demoness escaped from the Devil Cult. The Four City Alliance is hunting her. If you dare to shelter her, you will be the enemy of the Four City Alliance. At that time, all the savage tribes in the Evil Dragon Mountain will be buried with her."
Li Mu still shook his head and didn't say anything.
Whether it was Old Master Jin Yong or Uncle Gu Long, so many wuxia novels and TV dramas, they all told everyone the same truth. The people of the Devil Cult were not necessarily evil, and the people of the righteous sects were not necessarily gentlemen.
Since he couldn't determine whether these people were good or evil, he might as well be a passerby.
"You just shake your head and don't say anything? Are you mute? "The bearded man looked Li Mu up and down and slightly frowned.
This savage's physique was a bit different than ordinary savages. However, there was no fluctuation of Genuine Qi all over his body, so he didn't look like a Devil Cult disciple in disguise. It was said that the savages around the Nie Dragon Mountain were all as black as charcoal. They spoke in a weird language and didn't understand the official language. All of these fit the characteristics of the savages in the Nie Dragon Mountain.
"Search the area," the bearded man said.
The others shifted their attention away from Li Mu and began to search the entire valley carefully. One of them even held a silver compass in his hand. After injecting his natural qi into it, the compass began to emit a faint glow. The needle of the compass began to move as if it was searching for something. He also stood on the shore and peeped into the pool, but in the end, he did not find any clues.
"Let's go and search in other places. We must find that Devil Cult witch," the bearded man said.
The young hero in blue pointed his sword at Li Mu and said, "What do we do with this savage? Let's just kill them. "
The bearded man said, "Forget it. He's just an ant and doesn't affect the overall situation. If we kill him, we may provoke the savage tribes in the mountain. Those savages are crazy and fearless. Although we don't have to be afraid of them, it's still very troublesome … Let's go."
The young hero in blue was unwilling to give up. He pointed his sword at Li Mu and sneered, making a threatening gesture of beheading. "Haha, ant." Then, with a sneer, he and the others soared into the sky, turned into a stream of light, and disappeared in the distant sky.
Li Mu laughed inwardly, but he still didn't make a move.
He was about to take out a complete set of clothes from the storage space and put them on. Then, from the pool behind him came an almost undetectable sound of water coming out. Then, a cold and sharp machete stretched out from behind and put on Li Mu's neck.
A faint fragrance wafted over, refreshing the heart and mind.
"Why did you help me?"
The voice was as cold as the snow on the top of a thousand-year snow mountain, and there was innate coldness in her tone.
The handle of the machete was held in the green mermaid's slender hand, which was like a freshly peeled shallot. The green clothes were still tightly attached to her body. Because it was not absolutely safe, she didn't use her Qi to dry her clothes.
Li Mu didn't turn around and just shook his head.
"Are you really mute?"
The woman's eyes were sharp, and her light green hair was wet and stuck to her temples, which gave her a unique charm and coldness. The machete in her hand was so sharp that it could cut Li Mu's hair. She moved the machete on Li Mu's neck to further threaten him.
Li Mu still didn't speak.
"Get out of here. Don't let me see you again." Seeing Li Mu's timid performance, a trace of disgust appeared on the woman's beautiful face. After a little hesitation, she said coldly, "The farther, the better. Next time I see you, I will directly cut off your dog head."
According to her previous methods, she would definitely kill this savage to prevent him from revealing her whereabouts.
But just now, it was this savage who sent away the masters of the Four City Alliance and indirectly saved her life.
People of the Devil Cult had a clear distinction between kindness and hatred.
Even in such a situation, they couldn't violate their principles and do such a thing.
Li Mu shrugged.
She was a woman with a strong personality.
Just as he was about to leave, a layer of black light suddenly appeared on the face of the beautiful woman in green behind him. The injury that she had been suppressing suddenly broke out. In an instant, she spat out an arrow of blood, and the machete in her hand fell limply onto Li Mu's body. Then, she lost consciousness.
She subconsciously held Li Mu's waist with her hands.
"Do you have to do this?"
Li Mu shook his head helplessly.
What else could he do? She was a beauty.
Moreover, Li Mu's intuition told him that although this beautiful woman in green had a bad temper, she was not a bad person … Forget it, he would save her if he could.
Saving a life was better than building a seven-story pagoda.
He took out some clothes from the storage space and put them on. Then, he carried the girl in green and walked out of the Evil Dragon Mountain.
Along the way, they met many pursuers of the Four City Alliance.
But how powerful was Li Mu?
Even though his zhenqi had been sapped dry due to the Heavenly Tribulation, making it impossible for him to fly, his powerful physical body was still more than enough to overwhelm a Great Sage cultivator. With his keen senses, he was able to leap around the mountain range as if he was flying, easily dodging his pursuers.
At sunset, they had arrived at the periphery of the Evil Dragon Mountain.
Unable to find a town, Li Mu found a leeward valley in the wilderness, set up a Spirit-gathering tactical deployment, and lit a bonfire. Then, he put the girl in green on the hay he had spread on the side, fed her a medicinal pellet that could dispel poison and heal wounds, and then left her alone.
Li Mu sat on a rock in the middle of the tactical deployment and began to use his Cultivation Method to absorb Spiritual Qi to heal his injury.
With the help of the Spirit Gathering Tactical Deployment, the Spiritual Qi was several times denser than outside.
This level of Spiritual Qi was barely enough to meet the requirement of Li Mu's Xiantian Skill.
As Li Mu breathed, the surrounding Spiritual Qi formed a vortex of air visible to the naked eye and gathered toward him. The plants within a radius of 20 meters also rose and fell, as if they were worshipping Li Mu.
A familiar sense of comfort flowed through his meridians, as if it was a good rain after a long drought. The Spiritual Qi was refined into natural qi by Xiantian Skill and integrated into his limbs and bones, nourishing Li Mu's almost dry body.
Four hours passed in the blink of an eye.
It was already the middle of the sky.
There was only one moon in this world, which was similar to the earth.
Most of the Spiritual Qi within a radius of five or six kilometers had been absorbed by Li Mu, so the Spirit-gathering Tactical Deployment naturally dispersed and lost its effect.
After using his Cultivation Method, Li Mu stood up and moved his body.
The black carbon substance on the surface of his skin cracked and gradually receded. His muscles began to grow and recover. His eyebrows also grew out, and his hair grew a short layer of stubble. He looked a little more like a human.
"It's strange. The newly cultivated natural qi is more solid, clearer, and more powerful than before. It's like a brand-new power, similar to the semi-chaotic qi … Is it because I went to the earth, experienced the drying up of Spiritual Qi, and survived the Divine Tribulation, so some qualitative change happened in my body?"
Li Mu carefully felt it, and his face lit up.
Although the natural qi produced in his body was only as thin as a strand of hair, far from the heyday, it was a better start.
"According to this efficiency, the natural qi in my body will be full in another two or three months. Well, this newly cultivated natural qi, let's call it … the primitive natural qi."
Li Mu was very satisfied with such progress.
The green-robed woman closed her eyes tightly, still in a coma.
However, she looked like she had fallen into a long nightmare. The moonlight shone down on her creamy face. From time to time, her expression would reveal sadness and fear. She kept muttering "grandma, grandma" in a low voice. It was obvious that she had a good relationship with her grandma and was a very important person in her life.
The unconscious green-robed woman had a kind of amazing beauty.
If Hua Xiangrong was a kind of classical and pure beauty, and Wang Shiyu was a kind of independent modern beauty, then this green-robed woman was a kind of cold and aloof beauty. Her exquisite appearance was no less beautiful than Hua Xiangrong and Wang Shiyu.
Especially at this time, she was injured and in a coma. Her light green hair set off her face with a kind of poignant beauty.
Li Mu couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
…
…
Ye Wuheng had a nightmare.
She dreamed that she went back to the past. 16 years ago, the manor of the Ye Family was burning with a raging fire, engulfing the figures of her parents and relatives. In a panic, her elderly grandma held her and rushed out of the sea of fire.
She tried hard to look back, crying, wanting to see the appearance of her parents clearly. However, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't see their appearance clearly. The fire burned and engulfed everything. Her grandma took her to escape, but they were also chased by the black-robed men whose faces couldn't be seen clearly. Her grandma was seriously injured and shouted for her to escape first …
"No, grandma, don't … If we die, we die together."
She shouted and suddenly turned over and sat up.
The nightmare receded.
The night wind was blowing, and the sound of the river was in her ears. There was soft and bright moonlight in front of her, and the grass and trees were dancing.
The surroundings were very quiet, and a faint strange fragrance came from behind.
Ye Wuheng was stunned, and for a moment, her memory went blank. But soon, she suddenly remembered what had happened before and became alert.
She looked back and saw that on the beach by the river, a bonfire was burning. A strange young man in a white robe was using a knife to pierce a big fish and patiently grilling the fish on the bonfire.
That strange aroma was coming from the big fish that was almost done roasting.
