Chapter 755 Sorry, I Can’t Go with You
Figures crisscrossed.
Li Mu withdrew his broadsword.
Wei Sinian’s body and head turned into raindrops that fell from the sky.
He died in a beautiful and non-b.l.o.o.d.y way.
He returned to where he came from.
The cultivation level of this real successor and future leader of the Demonic Snake Abyss was the highest among his peers, and he was the shrewdest one. He got out of the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm alive, but he still failed to escape his fate. The energy that he absorbed from heaven and earth returned to the starry s.p.a.ce in the universe.
That was the profound effect of Li Mu’s 24 Solar Terms broadsword skills.
A ma.s.s of bluish-gray mist produced by the curse drifted out from the raindrops that Wei Sinian had turned into. The ma.s.s of mist became even thicker after Wei Ximin died. It drifted toward Li Mu.
“The Eye of Thunderbolts, refine it!” Li Mu shouted in a low voice.
The vertical eye between his brows opened, with a lightning vortex whirling in the pupil. In the end, the lightning vortex turned into a purple cloud divine thunderbolt, which shot out of the pupil and directly burned the bluish-gray mist, making strange sizzling sounds. The purple cloud divine thunderbolt was the hottest thing of Yang between heaven and earth that could refine the Yin power of the curse.
Back then, Li Mu’s cultivation level was not high enough, so he was unable to resist the power of the curse after killing Wei Ximin. By now, he had entered the King Realm. In the face of the blue mist produced by the curse, he was no longer as helpless as before, and he could refine it at will.
Wei Sinian’s death made the other pract.i.tioners of the Demonic Snake Abyss break down in an instant.
Their opponent was invincible. They had no chance of defeating him.
With terrified screams, the people of the Demonic Snake Abyss scattered in all directions.
How could Li Mu allow those murderers of the Dark Yellow Army’s people to get away?
He drew his broadsword again and thrust it to perform a Four-directional Hack.
Blood squirted out.
Broken limbs flew in the air and soon turned into wind and snow.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
The Samsara Knife turned into a flying saber of the 24 Solar Terms, which flew out and took the lives of the remaining people from the Demonic Snake Abyss.
The fight was over in less than 30 breaths of time.
With his current strength, Li Mu was invincible in the King Realm. He could kill ordinary king-level pract.i.tioners very easily like cutting melons and vegetables, not to mention other pract.i.tioners below the king level.
All the pract.i.tioners of the Demonic Snake Abyss that came here were wiped out.
Li Mu withdrew his broadsword and stood outside the courtyard.
The pract.i.tioners in Green Fox Village looked at Li Mu with grat.i.tude and awe in their eyes as if they were looking at a G.o.d.
Li Mu’s mysterious broadsword-using method and unparalleled power completely changed the understanding of many of them on the human clan.
Those dead pract.i.tioners of the Demonic Snake Abyss were killed by Li Mu’s Great Snow Broadsword, Rain Water Broadsword, Grain Rain Broadsword, Cold Dew Broadsword, and First Frost Broadsword corresponding to the 24 Solar Terms. When they died, they roared and turned into rainwater, wind, and snow, putting out the big fire in Green Fox Village. Their clothes, armors, and weapons were left all over the place, but there was no smell of blood at all. On the contrary, the Spiritual Qi in the air became even stronger, and the air was fresh. The villagers had never seen such a scene after a killing spree.
“Don’t cry.”
Li Mu walked over to Bi Yan and gently patted her on the shoulder.
When some pract.i.tioners of the Green Fox Tribe saw this, their eyelids twitched.
The Green Fox G.o.d had a high status. How could they allow someone from another clan to do that to her?
However, at the thought of Li Mu’s G.o.d-like performance, mysterious broadsword-using method and formidable strength, they didn’t dare to say anything.
“Okay, I’ll stop crying.” Bi Yan smiled and raised her head, as if she had become the obedient little girl in the old days. Back then, after she awakened the divine bloodline, her aura changed greatly, divinity dominated her body, and she seemed to have become a completely different person. However, after the battle in the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm, she injected too much divine power into Ying Yuanyuan’s body. As a result, humanity got the upper hand in her body, and she regained some of her former demeanor.
Li Mu’s eyes fell on the Divine-winged Fox.
Although he arrived a little late, he still heard some of Wei Sinian’s words.
“You used to be the chief of the Green Fox Tribe, right?” Li Mu asked.
The Divine-winged Fox raised his eyebrows and immediately understood what Li Mu meant.
The Green Fox Tribe was a subordinate of the Heavenly Fox Clan. Back then, the Heavenly Fox Clan was one of the six major clans that betrayed the Dark Yellow Army and slaughtered the people of the Dark Yellow Army… For this reason, the Green Fox Tribe and Li Mu were actually sworn enemies.
The smile on Bi Yan’s face suddenly disappeared.
Even the red color of her face disappeared.
She stared at Li Mu with a slightly shocked and terrified look on her face.
She never imagined that their relations.h.i.+p would change from friends to enemies someday.
“That’s right. I used to be the ruler of the Green Fox Tribe. When I was in power, the Green Fox Tribe partic.i.p.ated in the persecution of the Dark Yellow Army.” The Divine-winged Fox let out a sigh. He did not try to conceal or explain anything, but instead, he admitted it frankly.
At this point, the last trace of red color vanished from Bi Yan’s face. Her beautiful face turned ghastly pale.
Li Mu glanced at the other pract.i.tioners of the Green Fox Tribe.
None of them dared to look at him in the eye.
Li Mu narrowed his eyes and remained silent for a long time. He didn’t ask or blame them. Instead, he turned around and looked at Bi Yan. “Come with me. Let’s get out of here together. The Imperium Vulpes Divine City is in a mess. It’s very dangerous for you to stay here.”
Bi Yan’s face resumed a bit of red color.
A trace of quickly increasing vitality appeared in her beautiful eyes.
“I am a member of the Green Fox Tribe. You… Do you hate me?” She asked in a low voice.
She acted gingerly like an anxious young girl who confessed her love to the man she loved for the first time.
Li Mu shook his head and said, “What happened in the past has nothing to do with you. I only know that you are my friend.”
Bi Yan was very happy on hearing that.
She asked again, “What about the Green Fox Tribe? Do you hate the Green Fox Tribe?”
Li Mu fell silent for a moment.
While he remained silent, the smile on Bi Yan’s face gradually froze and then slowly disappeared.
A trace of indescribable sorrow flashed across her beautiful eyes.
She realized deeply that the Green Fox Tribe had betrayed the Dark Yellow Army and killed countless people of the Dark Yellow Army. Even now, the Green Fox Tribe was still oppressing and killing the descendants of the people of the Dark Yellow Army. Perhaps a b.l.o.o.d.y battle between the pract.i.tioners of the Green Fox Tribe and the Dark Yellow Soldiers was ongoing in some corner of the Ziwei Star Zone… How could the confrontations between the two tribes that had lasted for so many years be changed or reversed by the friends.h.i.+p between two individuals?
“Should I go with him?”
Bi Yan glanced at her father, who was heavily injured, looked at the pract.i.tioners of the Green Fox Tribe in the village who had died to protect her, and then ran her eyes over the remaining tens of loyal clansmen around her.
She was more than willing to leave this place with this man.
However, her legs felt as heavy as mountains, and she just couldn’t move them.
Li Mu looked at her with his pleading eyes.
Bi Yan lowered her head, and tears gushed silently from her eyes like springs.
She felt as if she had shed all the tears in her life in the past few days.
“I’m sorry.”
She covered his face with her hands.
“Sorry, I can’t go with you.”
She wept silently.
“I’m sorry. My clansmen need me.”
The chief of the Green Fox Tribe and his son had died in battle, and Green Fox Village had fallen.
The Green Fox Tribe suffered heavy losses.
The blood of the Green Fox ancestors was flowing in her body.
She just couldn’t leave when Green Fox Village was in a state of chaos and the Green Fox Tribe was on the verge of extinction.
Even if she were just an ordinary little green fox, she still couldn’t leave at such a moment.
As a member of the tribe, she was born with the responsibility and obligation for it.
Moreover, she was the Green Fox G.o.d now.
She persisted and made her choice as Li Mu did. Back then, after Li Mu came to know that he was a descendant of the so-called sinners, he did not escape or grieve over the fact, but instead, he took on the responsibility of a descendant of the Dark Yellow Army for vengeance and for the rise of the Dark Yellow Army.
What was crueler for Bi Yan was that once she a.s.sumed the responsibility for attaining the glory of the Green Fox Tribe, it would mean that she and Li Mu were destined to be enemies in the future.
It was very likely that in a certain battle, the two of them would become enemies and fight against each other.
“I’m sorry.”
Bi Yan raised her head, smiled, and wiped her tears away. She looked at Li Mu and said, “I can’t go with you.”
