Li Mu did run into some trouble.
He had intended to leave directly when the people on the flying boat were not paying attention. However, when the flying boat was still flying out of the area of Mount Shu, several people on the flying boat suddenly had an idea.
"Hasn't that boy woken up yet?" Someone suddenly asked.
"Well, he's like a dead pig."
"Why do you think Ding Yi suddenly used this method to send this boy out?"
"Maybe he's worried about him?"
"No, I think it's a trick to deceive everyone. It's very likely that Ding Yi got something on the Zhuo Peak and wants to use this boy to send the treasure out. On the surface, it seems that he cares about him."
"You've guessed too much. Why don't we search him and find out?"
"What if this boy wakes up?"
"Well, in for a penny, in for a pound. Let's just …" Someone laughed sinisterly.
The others fell silent.
Then, someone reached out to touch Li Mu's body.
Li Mu sighed inwardly.
"Jianghu is really dangerous."
"These people are really smart. They can even think of this."
"It seems that I have become a fat sheep in their eyes. They are going to kill me and seize my treasure."
"Brother Ding, you have good intentions, but it's a pity that you asked the wrong person."
"If I were really an ordinary weak scholar, I'm afraid I would have died on the road without knowing why."
As Li Mu thought about it, he was about to take action and kill all these people.
However, at this moment, someone on the flying boat suddenly exclaimed, "Look, that's …"
In front of the flying boat, a large intercepting ship suddenly appeared. It approached in an instant and blocked the way of the small flying boat.
Li Mu closed his eyes, but he could still perceive everything outside. An idea occurred to him. He canceled the plan of taking action and decided to wait and see.
"Oh no, it's the patrol ship of the West Sea Sword Sect." Someone exclaimed in horror when he saw the red flag fluttering on the large ship, which was the symbol of the West Sea Sword Sect.
"What are you afraid of? We didn't do anything wrong," another person said fiercely.
While they were talking —
Swoosh!
With a strange sound, a long rope was hooked to the deck of the flying boat, pulling the small flying boat.
Then, with a flash of sword light, the four disciples of the West Ocean Sword Sect boarded the flying shuttle.
The leader was about 30 years old, with a white face and no beard. He was at the Natural Realm and wore a red swordsman suit. He was tall and had sharp eyes. He glanced around and said, "Which one is Duan Shuiliu?"
"Duan Shui?"
"There's no such person, right?"
No one could react for a moment.
One of them suddenly said, "Oh, by the way, is it the guy called 'Little Duan' that Ding Yi sent here?"
Everyone pointed at Li Mu, who was lying on the deck.
"That's him?" The disciple of the Natural Realm of the West Sea Sword Sect looked at Li Mu, who was firmly tied up, and asked, "What's going on?"
The people on the flying boat hurriedly told him what had happened.
"He was tied up and sent out?" The disciple of the West Sea Sword Sect in the Natural Realm was a little surprised. But after checking Li Mu's appearance, he said, "Yes, it's him. Guards, take him away."
A disciple of the West Sea Sword Sect came over and lifted Li Mu, who was still tied up.
"What should we do with these people?" asked another disciple, pointing at the rogue cultivators on the flying boat.
The white-faced and beardless disciple in the Natural Realm looked indifferent, as if he had no human feelings. He said, "It's a matter of great importance. We can't leak any information. Kill them all." Obviously, they were used to killing people to keep their mouths shut.
"No, Your Honor, please spare our lives."
"Don't kill us. We'll keep our mouths shut."
"I know Senior Fellow Apprentice Qi of your West Sea Sword Sect …"
"We know nothing."
"Run, run quickly!"
Obviously, the people on the small airboat did not expect such an outcome. Immediately, there were exclamations. Some people knelt on the deck and begged bitterly, some people questioned loudly, and some people directly leaped into the sea of clouds below in an attempt to escape.
However, in front of the real elite experts of the West Sea Sword Sect, how could these small fries escape?
Several sharp and merciless sword light flashed and swirled. These people were killed one by one, and none of them escaped.
Evil had its retribution.
Li Mu did not have any sympathy or pity for them.
If those people hadn't harbored evil thoughts and didn't have the intention of murdering him for money, Li Mu might have stepped in and saved them. But with their hearts in mind … He could only say that they had been tricked into coming to hell instead of going to heaven.
In the end, even the small flying boat was directly destroyed.
Li Mu pretended to be in a coma and was brought back to the big ship by these disciples of the West Sea Sword Sect.
The big ship turned around.
In less than an hour, it had reached the sky above the Desktop Peak.
"Guards, send this mortal to the underground dungeon and keep him in custody," said the white-faced and beardless Natural Expert in the lead.
Li Mu was carried down from the big ship and was about to be sent to the underground dungeon.
Suddenly, an expert of the West Sea Sword Sect in the Celestial Being Realm flew over, showed the token in his hand, and said, "The elder has given the order. You can leave Duan Shuiliu to me. He has other uses."
"It turns out to be Senior Fellow Apprentice Fan." The white-faced and beardless Natural Expert hurriedly saluted and said, "Hurry up, bring him here and hand him to Senior Fellow Apprentice Fan."
Li Mu was handed over to the two men beside Senior Fellow Apprentice Fan.
"Take him away."
Senior Fellow Apprentice Fan and the others took Li Mu to a small flying boat, left the Desktop Peak directly, and swooped down the Desktop Peak.
Li Mu felt strange.
"What's going on?
"Are they going to bury me under the Desktop Peak as fertilizer?"
"The people of the West Sea Sword Sect can't be so bored, can they?"
Li Mu felt that the series of events tonight had taken a turn for the better.
He decided to see what on earth the people of the West Sea Sword Sect were trying to do.
However, he soon felt that there were surging energy fluctuations coming from the bottom of the Desktop Peak.
"There are two peak experts fighting!"
Li Mu noticed it at once.
Moreover, one of them should be Qin Rushuang, the Top Sword of West Sea, the head of one of the three generations of the Sword Sect and one of the contemporary experts in the Void-breaking Realm. The other person's aura was extremely strange, which Li Mu had never seen before. He was vaguely suppressed by Qin Rushuang, the Top Sword of West Sea, but he still had the power to fight back.
"Since he can stand up to Qin Rushuang, the Top Sword of West Sea, is he an expert of the Devil Cult?"
Li Mu thought. Soon, the flying boat had reached the bottom of the Desktop Peak.
Senior Fellow Apprentice Fan carried Li Mu and approached the center of the battlefield.
"Have you brought him here?" Someone asked. It was the voice of Qu Xuening, the Young Master of Cold River City.
"Young Master Qu, he's here," Senior Fellow Apprentice Fan said respectfully. "He was intercepted by Junior Fellow Apprentice Zhang and the others at the periphery of Mount Shu. This guy was knocked out and hasn't woken up yet. I asked the others on the flying boat. It is said that Ding Yi knocked him out and sent him there, asking them to take him away."
"Oh, that's interesting." Qu Xuening smiled. He had already guessed something, so he asked, "Where are the others on the flying boat?"
Senior Fellow Apprentice Fan said, "They have been killed by Junior Fellow Apprentice Zhang and the others."
"Good, well done." Qu Xuening's voice was obviously very satisfied. Then, he said, "Take your men and follow me."
The experts of the West Sea Sword Sect and Cold River City who had set up the surrounding formation parted to make a path. Qu Xuening walked in, came to the edge of the battlefield, and said, "Haha, Ding Yi, look who's here."
Senior Fellow Apprentice Fan carried Li Mu forward.
"Xiao Duan?" Ding Yi's voice came from the battlefield. Then, he said angrily, "You despicable villains! How dare you make things difficult for an ignorant scholar with low martial arts skills? Do you deserve to be called the Righteous Way of Life?"
When Li Mu heard this voice, he couldn't help but be shocked.
"It's Ding Yi?"
"Ding Yi, the famous hero in Jianghu?"
His shock was no small matter.
It should be noted that these days, except for the few times he practiced, he had been with Ding Yi almost every day. So, he didn't find out that Ding Yi was such a hidden top expert. Li Mu thought that he had very sharp eyes. Moreover, he had practiced the Xiantian Skill and opened the Third Eye, so his perception was very sharp. But after such a long time, he didn't find any flaws.
Since Ding Yi could fight against Tan Rushuang, the Top Sword of West Sea, his strength was definitely not low.
Qu Xuening laughed and said, "Of course, I don't need to follow any rules to deal with you demons of the Devil Cult. What's more, this little scholar is not innocent. He is your accomplice. Even if he is not a follower of the Devil Cult, he colluded with you, which means he is colluding with the Devil Cult. His crime is the same as that of a follower of the Devil Cult, and he will be punished by heaven and earth … Haha, Ding Yi, why don't you surrender now? Don't you want your accomplice to live?"
"Rumble!"
In the battlefield, there was a violent sound of energy fluctuations and explosions.
Tan Rushuang, the Top Sword of West Sea, flew backward and got out of the battlefield.
In the flying dust, Ding Yi's figure was unprecedentedly tall like a demon god. He was bathed in blood and covered with sword marks. There were several holes on his body, but his fighting intent was surging like the ocean. He didn't seem to be in the least bit dispirited. Surrounded by dark flames, he looked like a god of death walking in the darkness.
Even though he was in a desperate situation, he still fought to the death without retreating.
It was clear that Tan Rushuang, the Top Sword of West Sea, had the strength to suppress him. Even if he had seriously injured him again and again, this man seemed to never fall. He still had a strong combat capability and a tenacious will.
"Ding Yi, if you surrender now, I will spare this boy's life. What do you think?" Qu Xuening said with a cold smile.
Ding Yi's eyes fell on Li Mu and he sighed.
He had taken precautions in advance and sent Li Mu out in advance, because he was afraid that this simple scholar, who was full of curiosity about Jianghu, would be involved in the treacherous and cruel Jianghu conspiracy disputes. But he didn't expect that he would make a wrong move and finally implicate this scholar.
"Wake him up," Qu Xuening said.
Senior Fellow Apprentice Fan was about to break one of Li Mu's bones to wake him up from the pain. But to his surprise, Li Mu suddenly opened his eyes on his own at this time, which startled Senior Fellow Apprentice Fan. He scolded, "This little bastard has been awake for a long time. He has been pretending to be dead."
Li Mu ignored him. He looked at the center of the battlefield, at the man who was bathed in blood and looked like a God of War. He said, "Brother Ding, what are you doing?"
With a complicated look on his face, Ding Yi finally said, "Xiao Duan, I'm sorry. I got you into trouble. I hid my identity. In fact, I'm a member of the Divine Sect on Mount Shu." He really felt guilty. If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have brought this boy to Mount Shu. Later, in fact, he also used Li Mu to cover for himself. For example, when the West Sea Sword Sect conducted several investigations, he and Li Mu testified for each other so that they did not arouse suspicion.
