"Thank you for letting him go." In front of the 100-meter-tall Buddha, the eldest princess bowed to Li Mu and said apologetically, "In the past year or so, he has changed. I can't persuade him anymore."
Li Mu said, "Everyone will change. In his position, he will change faster."
The eldest princess looked at the handsome man in front of her. In a trance, she remembered the first time she met him at the noodle stall in Peace Town, as if it were yesterday.
But now, things had changed.
"Maybe I was wrong." The eldest princess looked miserable and said, "I shouldn't have let him aspire to be an emperor. If he had been an ordinary person in Taibai City, he might be carefree and very happy now, instead of being obsessed with hegemony and dominating everything in the world all day long. Gradually, he was lost by the desire for power and did those heinous things."
Li Mu did not speak.
Some people were born to walk certain paths, and they could not avoid it.
Rather than saying that Qin Zheng's path was chosen for him by Qin Kong, it was better to say that it was innately destined.
The only pity was that he went astray on this path.
In the words of a popular saying on Earth, Qin Zheng eventually became the kind of person that he hated the most in the past.
Power was intoxicating.
The strength and territory of the Empire of the Great Qin Dynasty expanded too fast. At that time, Li Mu almost penetrated the entire Divine Land. After the Battle of the Tomb of the God of Sin, the Northern Song lost its capital. The rebellion of the Eight Lords greatly damaged the empire's vitality. The Southern Chu had always been in discord. Later, Li Mu killed the henchmen of Lord Qu and the Holy Clan, which protected the country in the Southern Chu.
Although Li Mu killed more members of the royal family and several princes and emperors, in the end, Li Mu also used his influence to help Qin Zheng ascend to the throne.
To some extent, Qin Zheng's fate today also had some elements of Li Mu.
"What will the future of the Qin Dynasty be?" The eldest princess looked at Li Mu and asked again.
"No future."
Li Mu raised his head and looked at the peaceful face of the Buddha. Countless images flashed through his mind.
In the end, he went straight to the point and said, "From now on, there will be no Qin Dynasty, no Northern Song, and no Southern Chu on the Divine Land. There will only be Taibai City."
He had made up his mind to completely overturn the current situation on the Divine Land and completely control the whole continent in the hands of the Black Yellow Clan to prepare for the upcoming war.
Time waits for no man.
Li Mu could not be soft-hearted anymore.
The eldest princess looked at Li Mu and didn't know what to say.
It would be a lie to say that she had no attachment to this country.
No matter what, she had the word Qin on her head, and the blood of the Qin family flowed in her veins. She had never thought that this empire, this royal family, would actually end in the hands of this young man she had unintentionally met at a vegetarian noodle stall.
However …
"That's good too. At least Zheng 'er can have a good death."
She laughed.
Every dynasty, no matter how glorious and resplendent it was in the past, would one day fall from its peak and be replaced. There had never been an exception.
Qin Zhen had never thought that the Great Qin Empire could last for eternity.
Sooner or later, it would be destroyed one day.
If the Qin family was destroyed by Li Mu, at least the bloodline of the Qin family could be preserved. The bloodline of the Qin family would not be cut off. If the Qin family was destroyed by other forces or other people, how could the royal family of a fallen country have any chance?
Perhaps this was the best ending for the bloodline of the Qin family?
"I will protect the bloodline of the Qin family, and I will not embarrass the loyal ministers of the Qin family. Qin Capital will still belong to the Qin family in the future. However, there are some words that I have to say in advance. The Qin family can't control too many troops, and they can't be enemies with my Taibai City anymore. I have some big things to do next. If someone dares to play tricks behind my back, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Li Mu looked straight into the eyes of the eldest princess and said firmly and resolutely.
At this moment, the eldest princess felt an unquestionable will burst out from Li Mu, as if he were a god or a Buddha who dominated everything, which was not something that the mortals in this world could disobey.
She finally understood clearly that she and he had long been people from two different worlds.
"Okay, the Qin family will do it."
The eldest princess put her palms together and solemnly bowed in front of Li Mu.
"Amitabha, donor, take care. We will never meet again."
She lowered her eyebrows and solemnly chanted the name of Buddha.
Then she turned around and walked to the foot of the big Buddha. She sat cross-legged on the rush cushion again, chanted the Buddhist scriptures, and knocked the wooden fish again and again. The rhythm was slow and steady, like the surface of an ancient well, without any ripples.
Li Mu looked at her back.
She was as slim as jade, shining with brilliance.
It was the most beautiful age of a woman's life.
But in the end, this proud woman chose to be the companion of the ancient Buddha lamp, seeking comfort in the spiritual world. To her, fate was a little cruel. The sword in the hands of that resolute, arrogant, and stubborn female swordsman could not cut through the rolling mortal world. In the end, she could not escape the teasing of fate.
Li Mu felt that maybe he should do something.
But in the end, he turned around and left.
He had already owed a debt of love.
If he couldn't pay it back, he couldn't owe more.
Li Mu left there.
There were still many important things waiting for him to do.
Sensing Li Mu's departure, the rhythm of the wooden fish suddenly stopped.
A crystal clear tear dropped on the wooden fish, broke, and slid down.
Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!
The sound of the wooden fish rang again.
It was like the wind blowing the leaves and the rain hitting the banana leaves. It was a mess, and there was no rhythm at all.
…
…
"Hahaha, Li Mu, are you talking about the poetry and martial arts immortal who was invincible on the Divine Land?" Looking at Xu Sheng, who was seriously injured but still not convinced, the young man burst into laughter.
"I know him. But so what? There are no heroes in this era. It's the young who became famous. His era has long passed. Even if he comes back now, so what? "
The young man stood up, stepped on Xu Sheng's shoulder, and slowly pressed him down, saying, "I'm not afraid of him coming back. I'm just afraid that he won't come back."
"You'll regret it." Xu Sheng's shoulder was directly crushed. He put his hands on the ground to prevent himself from kneeling. He sneered and said, "If you know what he did in the universe, you'll regret it."
"Oh? In the universe? Haha, I have also heard that he has indeed done some things. However, to me, those things that he has done are like children playing house. Childish and laughable. They are not even worth mentioning. "
The young man said with a smile.
Xu Sheng roared and put his hands on the ground.
That pair of arms grew out later, and they were about to be broken again.
"You're really a tough man. It's not easy for you to be so old."
The young man raised his foot, looked at Xu Sheng, and said, "I know you're not convinced. Haha, but it's no use. I know Li Mu. I know his abilities. But Li Mu doesn't know me. He doesn't even dare to think about my abilities. So, old man, don't think that Li Mu can turn the tables when he comes back. I've detained you to wait for him. Those bullsh * t things he did in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region and the moral gold body are useless to me. Hahaha …"
Xu Sheng's heart suddenly hung in his throat.
"It seems that the young man … has nothing to fear?"
"Did he really set up a trap and wait for Li Mu to jump into it?"
"If that's the case, things will be troublesome."
"Since when has the Divine Land begun to hide such a powerful figure?"
"What should I do?"
Xu Sheng was born in the Yue Mountain Faction, which was founded by the sages on Earth. In terms of origin, the Yue Mountain Faction was a natural ally of the Black Yellow Tribe. Therefore, his feelings for Li Mu were even more sincere.
At that moment, Xu Sheng suddenly hoped that Li Mu would not come here.
But things did not go as he wished.
In the camp, the dark cyan vacuum mist suddenly swirled, and the void seemed to be melted into a vortex. Then, Li Mu stepped out and landed.
"Eh? Brother Xu? "
Li Mu saw the seriously injured Xu Sheng and heard the roars and screams around him. He immediately frowned.
