After being exposed by Li Mu, that woman simply did not continue acting anymore.
She threw away the bamboo basket, curled her lips, and said, "What kind of lousy forest is this? Even the mushrooms here are poisonous …"
Li Mu's expression had completely darkened. He kept a distance from the fox demon and asked sternly, "How dare you, demon! You pretended to be a human woman and lured me here. What do you want?"
Li Mu could not see through the fox demon's cultivation. The demon aura emitted from her body was very strong. She was at least in the Five-Tailed Realm.
Seducing men and absorbing Yang Qi were common tricks used by the three-tailed fox spirit. The five-tailed fox spirit was already comparable to a human fifth realm cultivator. The effects of human Yang Qi, blood, and soul on their cultivation were negligible.
The woman smiled seductively and said, "Someone asked me to kill you. Look at your handsome face and soft skin. I can't bear to do it. How about this? If you join the Meizong Sect, I won't kill you. I can also report back …"
Hearing the name 'Meizong Sect', Li Mu's expression changed slightly.
Like the Corpse Sect of the Thousand Illusions Venerable and the Soul Sect of the Nether Ghost Saint, the Meizong Sect was also one of the ten sects of the Demonic Path. It was said that the people of the Meizong Sect were all handsome men and beautiful women. They were all good at seduction. It was an important organization used by the Demonic Path to collect and inquire about information.
Li Mu's enemies were all in Fairy's Capital. Who in Fairy's Capital was colluding with the Demonic Path to be able to hire the assassins of the Meizong Sect?
Cui Ming, Zhou Ting, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, the minister of the Ministry of Revenue …
Li Mu counted and found that he had offended too many people. There was no way to determine who was the mastermind unless he asked the fox in front of him.
Then he looked at the woman in front of him and asked, "Who asked you to kill me?"
The woman shook her head gently and said regretfully, "I can't tell you this unless you go back with me …"
Li Mu said, "Then let's see if you have the ability."
The woman smiled charmingly and said, "Then I'll let you see my abilities …"
As she smiled, Li Mu's mind wavered. However, he had been tested by Xiao Bai for a long time and quickly regained his composure. After silently reciting the Clear Heart Mantra, the fox demon's seduction technique was completely useless against him.
Her charm failed, and the woman said in surprise, "No wonder you're so bold. You do have some skills."
Two short swords appeared in her hands. She smiled and said, "Since you're not willing, then I'll beat you until you're willing …"
As soon as she finished speaking, her figure disappeared before Li Mu's eyes.
He immediately used the Fighting Word Incantation and his body instinctively lifted his sword to block. He fought with the fox demon who wielded a short sword. The two short swords in her hands were obviously not ordinary weapons. They were able to clash head-on with the Qingxuan Sword without any damage.
Not only that, but her close combat ability was also very outstanding. Her movements were nimble and extremely fast. If it wasn't for the Battle Character Art, Li Mu would definitely not be her match in close combat.
Li Mu was shocked, but the fox demon was even more shocked.
Although her attacks were swift and fierce, Li Mu's defense was equally shocking. No matter which direction she attacked from, he could easily block it. It gave her a feeling that he was airtight and flawless.
Not only that, he was only a Transcendent realm cultivator, but the Dharmic power in his body seemed to be inexhaustible. After activating a Heaven-Class Dharmic Artifact for such a long time, his Dharmic power did not seem to be depleted at all. It was very strange.
Although Li Mu would not be at a disadvantage in close combat with the fox demon, it would be difficult for him to gain the upper hand.
Therefore, he took the initiative to retreat and threw out a few Fu-lu.
The Purple Heaven Thunder Talisman and Sword Talisman came out together. The fox demon made a hand seal and a Dharmic power shield appeared around her body. Neither the Purple Heaven Thunder Talisman nor the Sword Talisman could break through her defense.
Li Mu used the Thousand Sword Shadows again, but she still managed to block it.
Although he had entered the Transcendent realm, Li Mu's Dharmic power was still not comparable to a Fifth Realm cultivator. Even if he used all his strength, he could only fight to a draw with a Fifth Realm cultivator. For a Fourth Realm cultivator, this was already an unbelievable battle power. But no matter what, he still could not defeat the fox demon in front of him.
Li Mu, on the other hand, had a winning move. He still had a heaven-grade talisman that could summon a golden-armored soldier that could easily suppress this demon. However, that talisman could only be used once. Using it on her was tantamount to using a cannon to kill a mosquito, or using a sledgehammer to kill a chicken. He had wasted a life-saving trump card in vain.
The fox demon stood in the distance and looked at Li Mu as if she was looking at a treasure. She said, "I admit that I have underestimated you. If you join the Meizong Sect, I will tell you who wants to kill you …"
Li Mu ignored her. His mind moved again and the Qingxuan Sword flew out from his hand. It turned into a ray of light and shot towards the fox demon.
The fox demon threw out two short swords and fought with the Qingxuan Sword in the air. She smiled at Li Mu and said, "It's no use. You are no match for me …"
Whoosh …
Just as she finished speaking, a ray of golden light shot out from Li Mu's hand and flew in front of her in an instant.
The golden light turned into a golden rope, and before the fox demon had time to react, it tied her up tightly.
The moment she was tied up by the rope, the fox demon could no longer use her Dharmic power.
Clang!
Without the control of their master, the two short swords fell from the air and landed on the ground with a crisp sound.
The fox demon's expression changed. She struggled a few times but found that the rope was getting tighter and tighter. She felt pain and stopped struggling immediately.
Li Mu kept the Qingxuan Sword and clapped his hands. He walked over from afar and said, "Stop struggling. This is the Immortal Binding Rope. You are a five-tailed fox demon. You will not be able to break free. The more you struggle, the tighter it will be …"
The fox demon glared at Li Mu and said, "How can you be a hero when you ambush me in the dark?"
Li Mu shook his head and said, "I did not say that I am a hero."
The Empress had not given him this thing to be a hero in the first place. Although the speed of this Immortal-binding Lock was fast, it was very easy to dodge when it was used to bind someone head-on. It would only be effective when it caught the enemy off guard.
This fox was still not cautious enough.
Li Mu walked in front of her and said, "Tell me, who sent you to kill me?"
The woman looked at him coldly and said, "You better let me go right now."
Li Mu made a series of hand seals, and the rope around her body drew closer and closer. She didn't know if the rope was intentional or not, but it wrapped around her chest. As it tightened, the originally magnificent rope was quickly twisted out of shape.
The woman's face showed a trace of pain. She looked at Li Mu with even more anger.
Li Mu stood in front of her and felt a little awkward.
There was something wrong with the position of the rope. When the rope was tightened, it would act on her body and deform a certain part of her body. It made her look like a pervert, a pervert with some kind of evil taste.
Li Mu loosened the rope a little. He thought for a while and picked up a rattan from the ground.
He pointed at the woman with the rattan and said, "Are you going to tell me or not? If not, I will whip you."
The woman gritted her teeth and said, "Don't you dare!"
Whoosh!
Li Mu used the rattan as a whip and whipped her. He said expressionlessly, "Tell me!"
The woman had lost her composure. She was ashamed and angry. She said loudly, "I will definitely kill you!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Li Mu whipped her a few more times. The more he whipped her, the easier it became. He could even feel the joy of the Empress.
Although this fox demon was not bad looking, she wanted to take his life. There was no such thing as being protective of the fairer sex. Li Mu wanted to know who was behind her and then return to Shendu to take his life.
This was truly colluding with the Demon Sect. In the Great Zhou, it was a serious crime that could lead to the extermination of an entire family.
The woman's face was full of shame and anger. The rattan was imbued with mana. When it hit her body, it hurt. However, the pain on her body was not worth mentioning compared to the humiliation in her heart.
She stared fixedly at Li Mu. Her originally clear and bright eyes seemed to be filled with flames of fury.
"There's no use looking at me like that." Li Mu said, "Tell me who ordered you. As long as you are obedient, you will suffer less physical pain."
The woman took a deep breath. The anger in her eyes was gradually extinguished. She said calmly, "My name is Phantom Princess. Remember my name. I will return today's humiliation a hundredfold!"
With that, she grabbed a piece of jade hanging from her waist and crushed it.
In the next moment, her figure disappeared before Li Mu's eyes.
The Immortal-Binding Lock lost its target and shrunk rapidly. Finally, it shrunk into a ball and fell to the ground.
"A spatial Dharma treasure!"
Li Mu was shocked to see the fox demon escape before his eyes. He did not expect the fox demon to have such a Dharma treasure. Just like the Flask Dharma treasure, this spatial Dharma treasure had the ability to teleport. It could only be made by a Seventh Realm cultivator. It could teleport someone thousands of miles away.
Li Mu searched the surroundings for a long time but could not find the fox demon's aura. In the end, he could only walk back. He picked up the two short swords that she did not have time to retrieve and put them into his ring. Then, he flew in the direction of the county …
