Elder Fan Tian's cultivation was sealed. He looked at the tall figure with fear in his eyes.
The Seventh Realm. The North actually had a Seventh Realm cultivator!
After the Central State received the news of the North's rebellion, they immediately asked for help from the Ku Sect. He came here under the orders of the Supremacy to suppress Sangu. He thought that it would be a piece of cake, but he was captured in the blink of an eye.
The person who attacked him just now must be in the seventh realm. In this case, even the Ku Sect would not be able to interfere. After all, they only had one Venerable One in the seventh realm. Provoking such a powerhouse would bring disaster to the sect.
Elder Fan Tian did not even think and immediately said, "I'm only here under the orders of the Supremacy to investigate the North's rebellion. I didn't mean to offend you. Please forgive me!"
In Buddhism, the term Supremacy was used to refer to a Seventh Grade Prajna Realm cultivator. The Shen Nation was not like the Great Zhou, and Buddhism was not like Daoism. After Yuzhenzi advanced two years ago, there were four Seventh Realm cultivators in Fu-lu School alone. In the entire Shen Nation, only the three Buddhist sects had one Seventh Realm cultivator each. Therefore, the appearance of a Seventh Realm cultivator in the Shen Nation was enough to change the entire situation.
This was also the reason why Li Mu brought the demon corpse here.
His existence could make the three top cultivators in the Shen Nation not dare to act rashly.
Before Li Mu could speak, Sangu asked, "Sir, he's the third strongest cultivator in the Ku Sect. His name is Fan Tian. How should we deal with him?"
After the demon corpse revealed its strength, Sangu was obviously more perceptive. Li Mu looked at him and said, "Let him go."
Sangu was stunned and asked, "What?"
Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Since he didn't mean to offend you, give him a chance. Go back and tell your Supremacy to stop interfering in the North's affairs. Otherwise, we will personally visit your Supremacy and talk to him. "
He let the demon corpse remove the restriction of Brahma's mana. Brahma climbed up from the ground. He already knew who was in charge here. He respectfully gave Li Mu a Buddhist salute and said, "Junior will take his leave."
Seeing Brahma leave, Sangu asked in confusion, "My Lord, he is an important figure of the Bitter Sect. Why did you let him go …"
He knew very well that after this Seventh Realm powerhouse appeared, the Central State would no longer be able to do anything to the Northern State. For a very long time to come, his fate would be tied to these people.
Under such circumstances, he had to start making plans for himself.
Li Mu looked at Sangu in surprise. These days, when he was asked to do things, he was always unwilling. This time, he actually took the initiative to think for them. He then explained, "The Shen Nation's problem is in the bones, not the skin. To change the Northern State, it will take at least a few decades. We have no enmity with the Bitter Sect, so we don't have to become enemies with them."
To be honest, Li Mu did not have a good impression of the Shen Nation and had no intention of changing it. His great ambition was to bring peace to the Great Zhou, not the Shen Nation. However, the Shen Nation and the Northern State shared a border with the Great Zhou. The stability of the Northern State and the Southern State of the Great Zhou were the most important.
He had already asked Sangu to announce to the public that the Northern State would be independent from now on. From now on, the Shen Nation and the Northern State would become independent countries. The Shen Nation and the Great Zhou would no longer share a direct border. The soldiers of the Southern Army could also live a peaceful and stable life.
Since Li Mu had already spoken, Sangu could not say anything else. He inadvertently glanced behind Li Mu and realized that a young man behind him was looking at Li Mu with an extremely respectful gaze.
From his clothes and skin color, he should be a lowly citizen of the Shen Nation. Sangu's gaze moved away from him and quickly returned back.
He was shocked. He stepped in front of Aragu and grabbed his wrist. He muttered, "Such a physique, such a physique …"
Aragu was shocked. At this moment, Sangu spoke urgently, "I am Sangu. Are you willing to acknowledge me as your master?"
Everyone in the Northern State knew of Sangu's name. He was the belief of the Vajra Sect. However, Aragu, whose thoughts had changed, did not respect him. Instead, he was somewhat repulsed. He knelt in front of Li Mu and said, "I want to acknowledge you as my master!"
Li Mu did not even think about it. He waved his hand and said, "I don't accept disciples. If you are willing, you can acknowledge Sangu as your master. He is more than capable of teaching you."
His benefactor was already a god-like existence in his heart. Although he could not acknowledge him as his master, which disappointed Aragu, he did not dare to ask to become his benefactor's disciple. He knelt in front of Sangu and said, "Greetings, Master."
Everything he had experienced made him understand that he had to have enough strength to protect himself and his loved ones. Only then could he do what he wanted to do.
Sangu looked at Li Mu gratefully. Li Mu turned and walked out of the hall.
Sangu did not have much lifespan left. To them, no matter how powerful they were when they were alive, it was inevitable that they would return to dust after their lifespan was exhausted. When there was no hope of breaking through in their later years, many people's greatest wish was to find a disciple to pass on their lifelong knowledge.
With Aragu's physique, even a seventh-level cultivator would not be able to resist snatching him, let alone a sixth-level cultivator.
It was good to have a cultivator like Sangu teach him. It would save him a lot of detours on the path of cultivation.
Zhou Zhong walked over from afar and said, "I'm not used to the Vajra Sect's people. When you return to Shen 'du, transfer Wei Peng over."
Li Mu nodded and said, "There's no need to return to Shen 'du. I can do it now."
He took out the spirit snail. After dialing, a sweet voice came from the spirit snail. "Daddy, when are you coming back? Ling 'er misses you …"
Li Mu smiled and said, "Ling 'er, be good. I'll be back soon. Give the spirit snail to your mother. I have something to tell her."
Hearing the sound coming from the other side of the spirit snail, Li Mu said, "Your Majesty, when you're free, give a decree to send Wei Peng, the head of the Ministry of Justice, to Shen Country's Northern State …"
After talking to the Empress and chatting for a while, Li Mu put away the spirit snail. However, he noticed that Zhou Zhong was looking at him strangely.
Li Mu asked, "What are you looking at?"
Zhou Zhong shook his head and said, "Nothing, Your Majesty …"
…
Shen Country, Central State.
On a flattened mountaintop, there was a group of magnificent temples that occupied a large area.
On the top floor of the tallest pagoda in the group of temples, Brahma put his hands together and said, "Venerable One, this is what happened. If it wasn't for the mercy of that senior, I would have passed away."
An old monk sitting cross-legged on a lotus throne with his eyebrows hanging down to his chest slowly opened his eyes and said, "Our foundation isn't in Northern State. Since that's the case, we don't have to care about Northern State anymore."
The Ku Sect only had one Venerable One and couldn't afford to offend a Seventh Realm cultivator. There was no need to offend a Seventh Realm cultivator for the imperial court.
Brahma asked, "If that's the case, how do we explain it to the imperial court?"
The old monk said, "Tell them the truth."
Brahma bowed and said, "As you wish."
Shen Country, Central State, New Capital.
In the palace hall, the young emperor of Shen Country gathered the important officials to discuss the rebellion in Northern State.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. Elder Brahma has already gone to Northern State. I believe the rebellion will be quelled soon."
"Although I don't know what's wrong with Sangu, he's definitely no match for Elder Brahma."
"With Elder Fantian here, nothing will happen."
While everyone was discussing enthusiastically, an official stumbled in from outside and shouted, "Your Majesty, it's bad. Northern State has sent an urgent message. Northern State has declared independence!"
"Preposterous!"
The emperor of Shen Country was furious. He pulled out the sword that symbolized power from his waist and pointed to the north. He said, "Send troops, we must send troops. Gather the defense forces and send troops to Northern State immediately!"
An official advised, "Your Majesty, please calm down. Elder Brahma hasn't returned yet. Perhaps the rebellion in Northern State has been quelled."
As soon as he said that, another official hurriedly ran in from outside and said while panting, "Your Majesty, news from the Ku Sect. Elder Brahma has returned. The Venerable One has passed down a decree that the Ku Sect will no longer interfere in Northern State's affairs …"
An official asked in shock, "Why?"
"Could it be that even Elder Brahma can't quell the rebellion?"
"Even if Elder Brahma can't, the Venerable One doesn't have to give such a decree …"
…
The emperor of Shen Country was even angrier. He clenched the sword in his hand and said in a deep voice, "Send troops …"
The official hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, you can't. Elder Brahma said that there's a Seventh Realm powerhouse behind Sangu. Even the Ku Sect doesn't want to provoke him …"
The expression on the Shen Emperor's face froze. After he regained his senses, he loosened his grip on the sword and put it away. He used his sleeve to gently wipe the blade and said in a low voice, "It's not good to send troops. It's just one Northern State. Our Shen Dynasty has more than 20 states. It doesn't matter if there's one more Northern State or one less Northern State. Don't you think …"
