Chapter 687 Six Supreme Treasures
How could Li Mu be in the mood to meddle with these people?
He directly elbowed his way through the crowd and left the posthouse.
Some people followed him, but they soon lost sight of the target.
“Shame on you. How dare you not take the Heavenly Deity Clan seriously?”
That messenger of the Heavenly Deity Clan was indignant.
Just then, someone in the distance shouted, “It’s out. It’s out… The latest List of Heavenly Legends of the Star Regions has come out.”
The crowd suddenly became excited again.
“Let’s take a look.”
“It has really come out.”
“Take a look and check Li Yidao’s ranking!”
“Oh my G.o.d.”
“He ranks 16th among the top 20. Li Yidao ranks 16th. Can I believe my own eyes?”
“He ranks even higher than the ‘G.o.d of Sword’, w.a.n.g Yanyi.”
“This might be a mistake. Li Yidao is indeed powerful, but how can he become the 16th and rank higher than the ‘G.o.d of Sword’, w.a.n.g Yanyi? After all, the person he defeated is Dongmen Chuixue, who used to rank 20th.”
“Ha ha, in my opinion, this is a matter of course. Li Yidao fought about one hundred fights in a single day and won all of them. Moreover, he even defeated such super Heavenly Legends like Dongmen Chuixue with only one strike. It shows that his strength is unfathomable, and his 16th ranking is beyond dispute!”
Many people saw the latest List of Heavenly Legends of the Star Regions on the Immortal Net and their communication tokens.
Li Mu’s name was in the 16th place.
Many people were shocked at first, but after they thought carefully for some time, they felt that the ranking was quite reasonable.
The reason was that Li Yidao always launched only one strike in his fights. No matter how powerful his opponent was, he would still end the fight with only one strike.
Many cultivators used to think that it might be a fluke.
But now, more and more pract.i.tioners found that there seemed to be only one word to describe Li Yidao’s strength —
“Unfathomable!”
As the news continued to spread, it aroused a big storm in the Imperium Vulpes divine city.
The emergence of a new super Heavenly Legend interrupted the arrangements and judgments made by many forces, tribes and clans concerning this session of tournament between Heavenly Legends. It also affected their countermeasures against various Heavenly Legends.
The aftershock of this list was constantly radiating and simmering.
At almost the same time, another piece of news spread quickly on the Immortal Net, shocking the people once again—
The “G.o.d of Sword”, w.a.n.g Yanyi, publicly challenged the super Heavenly Legend ranking 10th.
The entire Imperium Vulpes divine city was boiling with excitement.
Since the compet.i.tion between Heavenly Legends began, there had been very few fights between super Heavenly Legends.
This was because the strength rankings of top Heavenly Legends were not established in a couple of days, and such rankings rarely fluctuated.
However, the “G.o.d of Sword”, w.a.n.g Yanyi, who had been pushed to the 20th place after Li Yidao dominantly made his way into the top 20, finally made a new move after lying low for a long time.
He directly challenged the 10th Heavenly Legend!
The span was a little too large.
It was as difficult as climbing to the sky for the top 20 Heavenly Legends to move up the ranks by just one position. Moreover, if they took one wrong move, they would probably fall into a bottomless abyss, and the loss would outweigh the gain.
It was a very tough decision for the “G.o.d of Sword”, w.a.n.g Yanyi, to do so.
The main residence of the Green Fox Tribe.
It was like a fairyland full of Spiritual Qi, lush trees, and beautiful mountains and waters.
Escorted by a blue-armor pract.i.tioner, Li Mu came to a hall in the backyard of the main mansion and saw the young master of the Green Fox Tribe who bad been waiting there.
“Haha, the ‘G.o.d of Broadswords’, Li Yidao. I have heard so much about you.” With a face like a peach blossom, the young master of the Green Fox Tribe was handsome and elegant, with the exquisiteness rarely seen in ordinary men. He proactively walked up, made an obeisance, and said, “Congratulations, Mr. Li. You’ve made your way into the top 20 in one go and attracted the attention from around the world.”
Li Mu made an obeisance in return and went straight to the point. “Where is Miss Bi Yan?”
The young master of the Green Fox Tribe smiled and said, “I knew it. The first thing that you would do when we meet is to ask about Miss Bi Yan’s whereabouts. Hahaha, bro, am I right?”
Only then did Li Mu notice that there was another person in the hall. He looked young, but his cultivation level was not low. He seemed to be a Heavenly Legend from a Star Region.
“Ha ha, Young Master, you really pay attention to details and have keen insights,” the young man said, and then he made an obeisance at Li Mu and continued. “I’m Min Chenzi from the Dark Shade Star Region. Nice to meet you, Mr. Li.”
Oh, he was indeed a Heavenly Legend from another Star Region.
It looked like the Green Fox Tribe had roped Min Chenzi in. This was why he acted as an advisor in front of the young master of the Green Fox Tribe and offered courteous greetings to guests.
Li Mu nodded in return.
He looked at the young master of the Green Fox Tribe once again.
The latter smiled and said, “Mr. Li, please don’t get angry and let me explain. I have Miss Bi Yan brought back not to harm her, but to give her a great opportunity… Come on, Mr. Li. Please have a seat first. I promise you that Miss Bi Yan is perfectly safe.”
Looking at the calm and relaxed look on his face, Li Mu knew that he was not lying, so Li Mu entered the hall.
The host and the guest took their seats.
A maidservant served tea.
The tea was the Green Peak Tea of the Green Fox Tribe, and the water was the white spring water of the Imperium Vulpes divine city.
Li Mu picked up his cup and blew away the tealeaves floating on the surface. A refres.h.i.+ng fragrance came to his nose, as if it could make the natural qi in his body boil.
“Mr. Li, you should know that Miss Bi Yan is a member of the Green Fox Tribe,” the young master of the Green Fox Tribe said with a smile on his face.
Li Mu nodded.
The young master of the Green Fox Tribe continued. “It’s a shame that some unusual things have happened in the Green Fox Tribe these years. As a result, Miss Bi Yan had no choice but to wander about out there. It is very kind of you to have helped her and brought her back to the ancestral star. The bloodline of Miss Bi Yan is somewhat special. The pedigree in the temple of the Green Fox Tribe began to show some signs not long after she came back here.”
Li Mu’s heart jolted when he heard that.
He used to think that the little fox girl should be just an ordinary fox demon.
However, as the Divine-winged Fox showed up later, Li Mu came to realize that things might not be as simple as they seemed.
The strength of Divine-winged Fox was comparable to that of a king-level master. He instantly overwhelmed four masters in the General Realm the moment he made a move, but there seemed to be some old injuries in his body. However, despite his strength, he lived in seclusion in a small village and remained so calm in the face of the demotion of the four masters in black to lower ranks. That was enough to explain everything.
The little fox girl was Divine-winged Fox’s daughter. How could things be so simple?
Later, the more Li Mu thought about it, the more certainly he felt that Bi Yan was sold to the Brilliance Immortal Star Region because Divine-winged Fox wanted to keep her daughter away from the terrifying trap of some conspiracy in this way.
Moreover, the situation in the Baiyu Dynasty of that Governing Star was probably not as simple as it seemed to Li Mu in the past.
However, Li Mu was not much concerned about these matters.
He didn’t care who and what Bi Yan was. He only knew that this girl had risked her life to help him.
She was his friend.
A good friend.
Li Mu would not hesitate at all to make friends with Bi Yan even if there were dangers in doing so.
He could fend off all the attacks with one single strike even if the sky collapsed and the earth caved in.
That was all.
What the young master of the Green Fox Tribe said now confirmed his guess.
As expected, Bi Yan’s bloodline was not that simple.
“I sent my men to the posthouse to bring Bi Yan back the other day. However, for some reasons, her ident.i.ty could not be made public, so the means I used that day was a little simple and straightforward. I hope you don’t mind, Mr. Li,” the young master of the Green Fox Tribe said in a very straightforward way and politely apologized to Li Mu again.
Li Mu said, “As long as Bi Yan is not in danger, I will certainly remember your kindness.”
After a pause, he said, “Nevertheless, I still need to see Miss Bi Yan.”
The young master of the Green Fox Tribe thought for a moment and said, “Miss Bi Yan shouldn’t meet with anyone at this time, but you have a special ident.i.ty. Well, I’ll have someone arrange for it…” Then he cast a glance at Min Chenzi.
Min Chenzi got up and took his leave. He seemed to have gone to arrange for something.
The young master of the Green Fox Tribe said, “Speaking of this, I have to thank you for bringing Miss Bi Yan back from the Baiyu Dynasty. My tribe has prepared some humble gifts. Please accept them.”
With that, he smiled lightly and clapped his hands gently.
Six extremely beautiful young girls of the Green Fox Tribe walked up slowly in a charming and graceful manner with six white jade plates in their hands.
There was something on each of the six jade plates.
Li Mu looked at the young master of the Green Fox Tribe without saying a word.
“This ‘Jade Pill’ is an Eighth-ranking Immortal Pill. If you take it, it can increase your natural qi and cultivation level by 100 years.” The young master of the Green Fox Tribe pointed to the jade plate in the hands of the first Green Fox beauty and smiled. “With all due respect, I know that your natural qi and cultivation level are only equivalent to those of a pract.i.tioner in the Soldier Realm, and there is a s.p.a.ce for improvement. If you take this ‘Jade Pill’, you can break through the Soldier Realm in one go. If you have a good Qi Cultivation Method, it is possible for you to reach the peak of the General Realm.”
Li Mu’s eyes fell on the jade plate in the hands of the first Green Fox beauty.
There was a pill that looked like a small jade ball carved from an exquisite jade rock. Many blue runic patterns were swirling on the surface of the pill to contain all the energy within it.
Li Mu had to admit that this Immortal Elixir was very attractive to him.
Then the young master of the Green Fox Tribe pointed to the jade plate in the hands of the second beauty and continued. “This is an Armor Pill containing a suit of Divine Armor of the Green Fox Tribe. When you activate it, your whole body will be covered by a suit of armor… Of course, considering your physical power, you may not need it, but it’ll make a good present to give to your relatives or friends. Once it is activated, even one in the Soldier Realm will be able to withstand the attacks by masters in the General Realm.”
Li Mu did not say anything.
With a smile on his face, the young master of the Green Fox Tribe pointed to the jade plate in the hands of the third Green Fox beauty and said, “This is a Broadsword Pellet that contains 81 long sabers. They are the sabers collected by the Green Fox Tribe from the masters of some foreign tribes and clans over the past tens of thousands of years. The sharpest one is the ‘Eight Wilderness Star-splitting Saber’, which used to be owned by the ‘Eight Wilderness Saber Emperor’, Huangfu Duan. Its blade is damaged, but the spirit in it remains…”
Li Mu’s heart skipped a beat.
He could tell that these “humble gifts” of the young master of the Green Fox Tribe were definitely not prepared in an instant, and they must have been long prepared.
The purpose was to give Li Mu exactly what he wanted.
Every gift was what he needed the most.
The young master pointed to the jade plate in the hands of the fourth Green Fox beauty and said, “This is a broadsword manual. It is a secret manual we found on the ‘Eight Wilderness Saber Emperor’, Huangfu Duan. Its ranking is unknown, but it entails infinite power. The people of the Green Fox Tribe are unable to practice the skills in this manual due to the limitations of their physical ability. You are from the human race, so this manual is very suitable for you.”
