Chapter 70 - Li Chongtian"s Past
"Don"t worry about me, continue." Li Mu noticed Chun Mei"s peculiar gaze and forced himself to calm down.Chun Mei withdrew her suspicious and continued: "No one knows whether or not Li Chongtian really stole away the Ten Thousand Swords Sect"s supreme martial skill, but the temptation of the Ten Thousand Swords Slaughter Token has affected more than half of the cultivation world. One must know that a million crystal is not a small number."
Whether it is the elite disciples of the super sects in the Yuheng Continent, or some old monsters that have been cultivating in seclusion for years, all of them have made their moves. Their goal is not only to tempt the million crystal s, but also to return the top rank Heaven Ranked Martial Technique, Myriad Sword Return.
This ma.s.sacre had been going on for nearly two hundred years, and the battlefield was spread throughout the entire Yuheng Continent. Some of the elite disciples of the big sects thought that they could handle Li Chongtian, but they didn"t expect that not only did they not take him down, but had instead killed several hundred of them.
"As time pa.s.sed, Li Chongtian"s reputation also grew. What shocked the cultivation world the most was that Li Chongtian had used his cultivation level to kill two elders of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, two of whom were old freaks who had lived for seven or eight hundred years at the time, with their cultivation levels at the Tongxuan realm as well.""Until the day after tomorrow when Li Chongtian stepped on the corpses of the numerous experts in the cultivation world and successfully broke through to the Tongxuan realm. From then on, the number of people who were willing to deal with him becomes fewer and fewer, and the cultivation world also became silent for a period of time."
"In the end, in order to find face, the Ten Thousand Swords Sect attracted a True King from the Northwest of the Yuheng Continent. An earth-shattering battle was waged, and the True King left the earth and caused half of the desert to be destroyed. In the end, Li Chongtian escaped without leaving a trace after being heavily injured."Saying that, Chun Mei poured herself a cup of fragrant tea and slowly sipped on it.
"He disappeared just like that?"
Seeing that Chun Mei seemed to be finished, Li Mu asked suspiciously. According to his knowledge, there should still be more to come.
"Of course not, Li Chongtian is a legend in the world of cultivation.
Chun Mei drank her tea and laughed.
Li Mu frowned, and in the end, sensibly fished out forty pieces of crystal s from his bosom and threw them over to Chun Mei.
Seeing crystal, Chun Mei was immediately overjoyed. She smiled gently, then placed the crystal into her arms and continued speaking."He escaped with his life in the hands of a True King Realm expert. Although Li Chongtian was defeated and escaped, her reputation has become even more resounding. One must know just how terrifying the True King Realm is. How could ordinary people so easily escape?"
"In the coming decades, there have been very few news of Li Chongtian, and occasionally, people would discover traces of him, but no one dared to make a move against him. It was only until eighteen or nineteen years ago, when a strange news that shook the world and spread throughout the cultivation world, that Li Chongtian appeared once again in the eyes of the people."
Back then, Zhao Yiyi was known as the number one beauty of the Yuheng Continent, and she had even cultivated the Heartless Palace"s Heaven Grade Technique, Broken Love, to the consummate stage, and was known as the number one female cultivator in the younger generation. "
"That battle attracted countless of cultivators, and Ten Thousand Swords Sect even took the opportunity to send out her True King Stage expert in an attempt to kill Li Chongtian and take back his Myriad Sword Technique.""In that battle, my Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets went there as well and personally witnessed the unparalleled battle. It is said that the battle caused the sky and earth to change colors, and in the end, Li Chongtian was able to win against Zhao Yiyi with the unparalleled sword, which gave him the opportunity to break through her True King Realm."
"After defeating Zhao Yiyi, Li Chongtian broke through her True King Realm under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of people, and it is said that Li Chongtian is simply too monstrous, that he attracted the heavenly tribulation to descend, and with it, Li Chongtian advanced one hundred steps forward and successfully broke through to the True King Realm."
"The driver of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect took action, and in the end, after a fierce battle, she fell into Li Chongtian"s hands. This is the first time in a thousand years that a ruler has fallen under the eyes of thousands of people, so Li Chongtian"s name became a taboo, and no one dared to lay a hand on him anymore."
"However, things are unpredictable. Not long after the battle in the Vale of the Heavens, news of Heartless Palace"s Holy Maiden Zhao Yiyi secretly having an affair with Li Chongtian spread out in the cultivation world. Zhao Yiyi betrayed the Heartless Palace, and the two of them secretly formed a cultivation pair.
"The Heartless Palace is different from ordinary cultivation sects. The Heartless Palace only accepts female disciples and not male disciples, and since ancient times, the Heartless Palace has always held a grudge against men, especially against the Holy Maiden, who is a supreme existence of the Heartless Palace and is an inviolable existence. If the Holy Maiden breaks this taboo, it is equivalent to slapping the Heartless Palace in the face.""In order to protect the Heartless Palace"s face, the three great elders of the Heartless Palace sprung out together. All of their True King Stage expert have been concealed for a long time, and they wanted to capture Zhao Yiyi to kill him.
"With the five great True King Stage expert joining hands, this kind of lineup is enough to sweep away half of the world. It is said that after more than a year, Li Chongtian and his son were found. In order to protect Zhao Yiyi and his son, who was less than a month old, escaped, Li Chongtian single-handedly held down the enemy.""In the end, Li Chongtian was outnumbered. He was seriously injured and escaped after being attacked by the five True Kings and he disappeared from the cultivation world."
Some say that Li Chongtian"s injuries were too severe, and he had no choice but to close the gate of life and death, while others say that he is already dead. Some even say that he left the Yuheng Continent, and traversed across the endless seas to another continent.
After saying that, Chun Mei looked at Li Mu, her intentions clear. After she finishes speaking of all the information she knew, Li Mu should pay the remaining forty crystal.
"crystal, I will not forget about you, but you don"t seem to have finished. If Li Chongtian disappeared, then what about Heartless Palace"s Zhao Yiyi?"Li Mu did not immediately give any crystal s, but instead asked with a dark expression. He knew that Li Chongtian"s mood was somewhat heavy in the past, and even though he had already tried his best to suppress the waves in his heart with the Great Brahma Art, there was still a bit of leakage.
"Young Master Mu, it seems that the information you"re asking for is only Li Chongtian"s. Although you"ve incidentally said a few things about Zhao Yiyi, that is not within the scope of this little girl"s explanation."
Chun Mei was a little unhappy, and her tone became slightly lower.
"If you want to say it, say it in the complete set. There"s no need to act like that, the crystal will not miss out on your effort!"
As Li Mu spoke, he threw out another twenty pieces of crystal.
"Alright, alright, Zhao Yiyi"s matter is not a secret in the cultivation world, so I"ll just give it to you as a gift. It just so happens that I know a little about it too.""This Zhao Yiyi was not able to escape. In the end, she was found by the people of the Heartless Palace and imprisoned back in the Heartless Palace. It is said that she has been imprisoned in the Heartless Palace until now."
"What"s worth mentioning is that although Zhao Yiyi did not manage to escape, her servant Yu Hongyi took Li Chongtian"s son and fled, disappearing from the world of cultivation. Even now, they have not been found.As Chun Mei finished speaking, she subconsciously glanced at Li Mu and an idea involuntarily appeared in her mind. Could the person in front of him have something to do with Li Chongtian?
"This is the remaining twenty crystal s, I thank you for today"s matter, until we meet again!"
Li Mu tossed the remaining crystal over to Chun Mei as he himself walked out of the compartment absent-mindedly.
"Wait! Brat, I know that your heart is in a mess. I never thought that your background would be so complicated, but even if you have feelings, you still have to be careful. Once he spreads the word of your question, your ident.i.ty will be suspected very quickly! "Luan Tian cautiously reminded him.
"You can"t keep it?" "You"re not mistaken, are you? In this Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, I might not even be able to kill him!"
Li Mu suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and replied a little speechlessly."How about this, you use your Fluttering Flower Touch to ambush her. I"ll think of a way to erase this part of her memories later!"
An existence like him, who was an old fox, thought about things more cautiously than Li Mu.
"Erase memories? This works too? " Li Mu was stunned, he had never heard of a person"s memories being erased.
"If my opponent"s cultivation had reached the Xiantian realm, then I really wouldn"t have been able to do anything with my current condition. But, a mere junior of the early Houtian realm isn"t even worth mentioning in my eyes!" He said with confidence.
Li Mu did not hesitate, he suddenly unleashed the river crossing step, and arrived beside Chun Mei who was about to send him off. Without waiting for Chun Mei to scream, he pointed her finger at her opponent.
Chun Mei"s vision went black, and she fell to the ground unconscious.The moment Chun Mei fell to the ground, a light green light shot out from the heliogram fragment on her chest and directly entered into Chun Mei"s head. After a while, the light green light flew back to the heliogram fragment.
"Alright!" "I promise she won"t know anything about what happened today when she wakes up. Let"s go!"
After doing all of this, he had become somewhat weaker. Obviously, using this divine ability had consumed a great deal of his vitality.Li Mu walked to Chun Mei"s side and took out all eighty of the crystal he had given to her, then pushed open the door, walked out, and closed the door.
"I say, brat, you are really unscrupulous. You actually took back the reward that you paid the other party. Aren"t you being a little too stingy?"Walking out of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets and on the streets of the Heaven"s Spirit City, Luan Tian spoke in a somewhat disdainful tone. He didn"t forget to bring back his eighty crystal s even before Li Mu left, he was extremely speechless.
Li Mu said with a straight face and calm manner: "I was also doing this for the sake of safety, think about it, the other party doesn"t remember anything, and now that there"s an additional eighty crystal in her arms, what do you think she"ll think, I did it to make it better!"
"Stingy means stingy, yet you have to come up with so many reasons. I"m too lazy to care about you, what are you going to do about your parents?"When he reached a serious point, his tone became serious, he did not think that Li Mu would just sit there and do nothing.
If there are no accidents, my father should be Li Chongtian. My mother is Zhao Yiyi, I do not know if father is alive or not, my mother is imprisoned in Heartless Palace, what do you think I should do?
Li Mu"s tone was a little downcast, his background was too bizarre, he was even a little hesitant, and didn"t know what choice he should make.
