Ao Run hid in the underwater cave, and there was endless fear in the depths of his eyes.
Summoning the Wind and Summoning the Rain was the magical power of the Dragons, and it had never been taught to outsiders. How did this person learn it?
What frightened him the most was not that this human knew the magical power of the Dragons. His intuition told him that this person had learned it from him.
Without using any incantations or gestures, this person could perfectly replicate this great magical power after watching him perform it three times. This incredible ability made him feel fear from the bottom of his heart.
This was too strange. Driven by this fear, he did not want the beauties anymore, nor did he want the demonesses he had taken in before. He just wanted to escape along the waterway.
However, just as this thought arose in his mind, the river water around the cave suddenly became shallow.
At first, the cave was more than 30 meters below the surface of the river. Soon, it became 15 meters, then 20 meters. In a few breaths, the eaves of the cave were out of the water. After a few more breaths, the river water around the cave was sucked dry, leaving only a wet mark under Ao Run's feet.
At some point, a transparent giant bell fell into the Li River and covered the entire cave.
The river water flowed past the two sides of the giant bell, and the cave that was covered by the bell became a vacuum.
A figure descended from the sky and landed in front of Ying Xin and Ting Xin.
Seeing that the two women were safe and sound, Li Mu was finally relieved.
Ting Xin hugged Li Mu's arm with one hand and pointed at Ao Run with the other. She cried, "We were already at the East Sea, but he stopped us and forced us to marry him. Boohoo …"
Li Mu patted her hand and said, "Don't worry. I'll avenge you."
Ao Run had no fighting spirit at all. His body shook and turned into a white flood dragon. He wanted to break through the bell and escape. However, with a buzz, he was bounced back by the bell wall.
Li Mu flew up, and the Dao Bell suddenly shrank. The powerhouses of the East County and the two sisters passed through the bell and appeared outside. Only Li Mu and Ao Run were left inside the bell.
Li Mu stretched out his hand, and a whip appeared in his hand.
Swoosh!
With a flick of his wrist, a whip shadow tore through the air towards Ao Run.
Ao Run was extremely confident in his own body. He didn't pay any attention to it. He was thinking of a way to escape from the bell and allowed the whip to land on his body.
His body did not feel much pain, but when the golden whip shadow landed on his body, the shadow of a flood dragon was knocked out of Ao Run's body. That was his demon soul.
The flood dragon was startled for a moment, then fear appeared in its eyes. Just as it was about to return to its body, it suddenly felt extreme danger. It glanced over and saw a small illusory sword condense above the head of the person opposite it.
His intuition told him that this small sword would take his life.
The flood dragon spirit floated in the air. Without hesitation, it bent its lower body as if it was kneeling. It nodded its head repeatedly and said in fear, "Spare me, spare me. I am willing to serve you as my master. Please spare my life …"
Li Mu didn't make a move right away. He was considering whether it was better to keep a flood dragon as a servant or to refine its corpse.
The disciples of the Corpse Sect had refined demons and humans, but they had never refined a flood dragon. Chen Shiyi and the others would definitely be interested in this project.
Ao Run had already sensed that the human opposite him had bad intentions. He immediately said, "Master, you are not good at fighting in the water. In the future, I can fight in your place. I am very fast. You can also use me as a mount. You won't have to worry about traveling …"
It had to be said that this flood dragon had a strong desire to live. In two simple sentences, he had clearly stated his value.
Li Mu was indeed not good at fighting in the water. Not only him, but all humans and demons on land were not good at fighting in the water.
The water was the world of the water. Fighting in the water with the water was a very unwise choice. One couldn't always think of drawing water first.
As for mounts, under normal circumstances, Li Mu's speed was not as fast as that of a flood dragon. Although the Teleport Talisman could greatly increase speed, the higher the level of the Fu-lu, the more expensive the talisman material needed. It was okay to use it once or twice, but Li Mu couldn't afford to use the Fu-lu every time.
The spirit boat that the Empress lent him was fast. It could be called the Ferrari of spirit boats. However, it belonged to the Empress. It was also precious to seventh level cultivators. It was the Empress' personal flying tool. The Empress only had one. Li Mu could borrow it in an emergency, but he couldn't just take it for himself.
With a flood dragon as a mount, he wouldn't need to use any spiritual stones or mana. Li Mu had to admit that he was tempted by this flood dragon.
He looked at Ao Run and said, "Hand over a part of your soul."
Ao Run was overjoyed when he heard this. He separated a small flood dragon soul from his demon soul's forehead and slowly flew to Li Mu.
To a cultivator, it was extremely easy to kill someone with a strand of hair, a drop of essence blood, or a fragment of soul. Since Li Mu possessed a fragment of the flood dragon's soul, he had the power to kill him.
Ao Run's demon soul returned to his body. He knelt on one knee and saluted Li Mu, "Greetings, master."
He was very unwilling, but there was nothing he could do.
He knew very well that this young man wanted to kill him. If he hesitated for a moment and didn't show his value in time, what awaited him would be the destruction of his body and soul.
Death or slavery, he wasn't stupid. He knew which was the right choice.
After subduing this flood dragon, Li Mu walked to the two sisters on the shore and said, "Use the spirit snail to inform your father and have him come to pick you up."
Li Mu was full of resentment towards the White Demon King. He took his wife everywhere, but his two daughters were not his own. The Snake Tribe indeed valued beauty over family.
Since the matter here was over, Li Mu asked County Chief Lin to dismiss the strong cultivators of the North County. These people thought that there would be a fierce battle, but they didn't expect that they were just watching the show. The flood dragon that shocked the East County was actually no match for that lord. No wonder even the County Chief was so respectful to him.
The demon officials of the East County Demon Division bowed to Li Mu before leaving.
They were originally just mountain spirits and wild monsters. They should thank the young man in front of them the most for their current status and identity.
Li Mu planned to wait here for two days until the White Demon King came personally to pick up the two sisters.
A day later, a man in white strode into the East County's government office.
The two sisters went forward and said happily, "Father …"
The White Demon King looked at them with a smile. He looked at Li Mu and said, "Brother Li, long time no see."
Li Mu said calmly, "I'm afraid the White Demon King has recognized the wrong brother."
The White Demon King laughed and said, "Although the way you address me has changed, our friendship has not changed. Thank you for taking care of Yinxin and Tingxin during this period."
Li Mu waved his hand and said, "There's no need to say these words."
The White Demon King looked at Ao Run who was standing behind Li Mu and asked, "This is the little flood dragon?"
While Ao Run was feeling nervous, a huge fist smashed into his face.
Crackling sounds kept coming from the government office. From the moment the White Demon King stepped in, Li Mu realized that his cultivation had broken through to the sixth realm. He was originally at the peak of the fifth realm and was not weaker than Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon. He must have encountered something in the past two years.
Ao Run could not fight back at all under the White Demon King's attack. Soon, he could only lie on the ground, motionless like a dead pig.
The White Demon King kicked him a few more times and said fiercely, "You dare to have crooked thoughts about my daughter. If it was me two years ago, I would have skinned you, pulled out your tendons, and made a slingshot to shoot birds!"
After the White Demon King vented his anger, he smiled at Li Mu and said, "Long time no see. Brother Li, why don't you come to the Eastern Sea with me? Let me take care of you."
Li Mu waved his hand and said, "No need. I still have things to do in the Divine Capital."
He had been enjoying the happiness of having a wife. If Tingxin and Yinxin were not in trouble, he would not have left the Divine Capital. Now that the White Demon King was here, he just wanted to go back and cultivate happily with his wives.
The White Demon King said regretfully, "If that's the case, I won't force you. In the future, when you come to the Eastern Sea as a guest, just let Yinxin and Tingxin know."
Li Mu nodded and said, "We'll talk about it in the future."
After saying goodbye to the two reluctant sisters, Li Mu stepped on the road back to the Divine Capital.
Before he left, he gave Ao Run some time to say goodbye to the female demons at home.
"I'll be back."
"You have to wait for me …"
"I love you …"
…
Li Mu thought that as soon as Ao Run left, the female demons in his cave would scatter like birds and beasts. However, to Li Mu's surprise, the female demons beside the dragon were not hypocritical to him. They didn't seem to have been snatched back by him. When Ao Run left, each and every one of them looked at him with tears in their eyes.
Li Mu learned from County Chief Lin that Ao Run was a pervert. It was famous in the Eastern County. Many female demons liked to follow him. Following a dragon was very beneficial to their cultivation. There were many married women among them. Ao Run did not reject any of them.
Although this caused quite a bit of conflict, it was at most an ethical problem. Otherwise, the Northern County government would have reported it to the imperial court and asked the Department of Worship to send people to quell the chaos.
In the sky above the Eastern County, Ao Run transformed into a dragon. Li Mu stood on the dragon's head. He looked down and saw the mountains below quickly retreating.
As expected of a dragon. With a level-five cultivation, his speed was comparable to a level-six human. A true dragon's flying speed should be even faster.
Ao Run carried Li Mu and flew in the sky. He sighed in his heart. To think that he, a demon king, would one day become a human's mount in order to save his life. If the other dragons knew about this, what would they think of him?
At a certain moment, he opened his dragon mouth and said in human language, "Master, how did you learn my dragon's superpower?"
This was what he still had doubts about. If he knew how to summon the wind and summon the rain, it would be fine. But if he learned it on the spot, it would be too terrifying. He had never heard of anyone who could do such a thing.
Li Mu said calmly, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
Ao Run immediately shut up and didn't dare to say anything else.
Li Mu rode the dragon and swaggered through the sky.
Along the way, no matter if it was a human or a demon, they were all shocked when they saw this scene.
The Dragon Clan was rarely seen. Even if it was just a Flood Dragon, just the aura it emitted was enough to make some low-level monsters lie on the ground and tremble.
The sharp-eyed cultivators even noticed that there was a figure standing on the head of the flood dragon.
"There's actually someone on the dragon's head!"
"Who's riding on the dragon?"
"Could this flood dragon be his mount?"
…
It was too far. Although they couldn't see the person's face clearly, everyone's eyes immediately became respectful.
Dragons were just born and had the strength of a level-four human. They were the top race on the continent. What kind of powerhouse could have a dragon as a mount?
At this moment, the peerless powerhouse standing on the dragon's head was thinking about a question.
If there were more than three women in Li Mu's house, there would be tension. There were so many demonesses in Ao Run's house, but they could still get along well. This didn't make sense at all.
Li Mu pondered for a moment and said, "I have a question for you."
Ao Run was worried that he wouldn't have a chance to show off. He immediately said, "Master, please ask."
Li Mu thought for a moment and said, "There are so many demonesses in your cave abode. Are they usually so harmonious?"
Although Ao Run didn't know why his master was interested in this question, he still answered honestly, "Occasionally, they'll be jealous, but they're still considered harmonious?"
Li Mu continued asking, "Why are they so harmonious?"
Ao Run said, "Maybe it's because they love me …"
Li Mu said disdainfully, "They're just being forced by you and don't dare to resist."
Ao Run, who had always been submissive and didn't dare to disobey Li Mu, actually retorted, "Master, you're wrong. Although I like beauties, I have a bottom line. If they really don't want to follow me, I won't make things difficult for them. I've already let two of them go before …"
Li Mu asked, "What about the others?"
Ao Run said proudly, "As for the others, after seeing my overbearing aura, they don't want their husbands anymore. They want to follow me no matter what. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame me for being too charming and deeply attracting them …"
Li Mu said, "That's immoral."
Ao Run continued to refute, "No, no, no, this is the morality of you humans. In the demon race, only the strong are respected. Only the strong are worthy of having more demonesses …"
Different races had different ideas. Li Mu didn't intend to change Ao Run's mind.
But speaking of this topic, Ao Run seemed to be energized. He said disdainfully, "To be honest, I look down on some humans. In my cave abode, there are more than a dozen beauties around me all day, and they're all very harmonious and harmonious. Some humans only have three to five women at home, and they're jealous of each other everywhere. They're forming cliques and making the atmosphere in their homes foul. Master, don't you think this kind of person is ridiculous …"
Li Mu stood on his head and said, "Stop for a moment."
Ao Run stopped and asked, "Master, do you have any other orders?"
Li Mu said indifferently, "You're so strong. You must be very unwilling to be my subordinate. I'll give you a chance. Challenge me again. If you win, I'll give you back your freedom."
Ao Run shook his head repeatedly. "No, no, no, I'm willing to be your subordinate …"
Li Mu said coldly, "Cut the crap. Do whatever I tell you to do!"
