Chapter 839 The King of Dogs
“What?”
Cloud Light Saintess flew into a rage when she heard what the old faker said.
“How could he be so arrogant?
“I’d rather die than be a maidservant.”
The beautiful woman seemed to be caught in a dilemma. She said, “Senior Yu, Yun’er is the future leader of the Cloud Clan that the clan has been training with painstaking efforts...”
The old faker directly interrupted her. “The fact that she is the future leader carefully selected and trained by the Cloud Clan happens to be the reason why she’s qualified to be Li Mu’s maidservant. Do you think that anyone can have the honor of being his servant?”
The beautiful woman was rendered speechless.
“Senior Yu, you’re making things difficult for me,” she said.
She didn’t want to agree to the request.
The old faker said, “What’s the matter? Don’t be so ungrateful. Back then, Yun Wuxiang wanted to be my maidservant, but I didn’t want to accept her... You’d better think about it carefully. I’ll give you another chance to think it through and give me a proper answer.”
“Well...” The beautiful woman was annoyed, but she didn’t dare to anger the old faker. She pondered for a while and said, “How long do you want her to be your successor’s maidservant?”
The old faker stroked his chin. “Ah, I would have forgotten about that if you didn’t mention it. Anyway, this girl can’t stay by Li Mu’s side forever. She doesn’t deserve such good luck. How about this? Let’s have her serve him for a year first. If he is happy with her after a year, he can consider extending the service period. If he is not happy, he can tell her to leave.”
The beautiful woman heaved a sigh of relief.
“A period of one year is acceptable.”
For martial arts pract.i.tioners with a long lifespan, one year was almost the same as one or two hours for ordinary people. A session of closed-door training for many masters would last for at least half a year or even several decades or a century. One year would pa.s.s by in the blink of an eye for such pract.i.tioners and would not prevent them from doing what they wanted to do.
The beautiful woman glanced at Cloud Light Saintess and said, “Yun’er, you...”
Cloud Light Saintess grew anxious. “Master, I don’t want to... I’d rather die than be his maidservant.”
“How dare you refuse to follow my order?” The beautiful woman pretended to be angry while winking at her disciple.
“I can’t let my emotions affect my decisions.”
Cloud Light Saintess knew that there was nothing she could do no matter how much she protested.
“The figure who appeared next to Li Mu is called Senior Yu. Is he so formidable that even my master has to bow to him in such a humble manner?” She had never seen her master speak to anyone in that ingratiating manner.
“Ha-ha-ha, don’t be unhappy.” Li Mu started to kick her when she was down. “Given your mediocre appearance and bad temper, it’s an honor for you to be my maidservant. Your b.u.t.t is so big, and your b.r.e.a.s.t.s are too well-developed. You are not slender or beautiful in any way, and you’re just not my type at all. Actually, I am the wronged one, okay?”
“You b.a.s.t.a.r.d! What are you talking about? You...”
Cloud Light Saintess flew into a rage.
“How could there be such a shameless person in the world?”
Li Mu chuckled.
“B*tch! It would be better for you if you died in a fit of anger.”
Cloud Light Saintess tried to restrain her fury and hysteria. She said, “Li Mu, you bully people by relying on your senior’s power, so you can’t be considered a real master. If you have the ability, you should subdue the Cloud Clan on your own and thereby make me your maidservant.”
Li Mu burst out laughing. “There are many ways to defeat you, and I’m just using one of them. You lowly, ugly woman! Now, you should understand what background, power, and lowliness are.”
Puff!
Cloud Light Saintess’s pretty face turned ashen, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.
Those words were what she said to humiliate Li Mu a few moments ago. Now, Li Mu said the same words to her.
The retribution came too fast.
“Senior Yu, you are a master of our time. Aren’t you afraid of being laughed at by others for bullying a junior like this?” Cloud Light Saintess glared at the old faker and tried to irritate him.
The old faker chuckled and said, “There is no one else here. Who would laugh at me? Who would dare laugh at me? What’s more, you are worse than a worm in my eyes. You don’t deserve to call yourself my junior.”
Puff!
Cloud Light Saintess spat out another mouthful of blood.
“Those words were what my master said to humiliate Li Mu, but now, his master is saying the same words to me. Humph... I’m so mad.”
The beautiful woman’s facial expression changed repeatedly, as if her face had been slapped by soles stained with dog s.h.i.+t.
The old faker and Li Mu worked with each other so well, and their words were simply slaps in the face for the beautiful woman and her disciple.
Obviously, the old faker had seen what had taken place while hiding in the dark.
In the end, the beautiful woman left. She looked back many times as she walked away.
She didn’t dare to stay here any longer.
The old faker was famous for his weird temper. Back then, he tortured the masters of the Celestial Court so badly that they wished they were dead. If he acted on impulse and brought up some ridiculous conditions, she would probably be in great trouble.
She couldn’t afford to provoke him, so she had to leave as soon as possible.
Cloud Light Saintess stood there with a look of despair on her face.
Before leaving, her master sent her a secret voice message telling her not to throw a tantrum because “Senior Yu” was very dangerous and formidable. Her master also told her that the consequences of disobeying him were unimaginable, so she should control herself and regard it as a test of her character. She consoled her by saying that one year would pa.s.s very quickly.
Never in her wildest dreams had she imagined that she would one day become someone’s maidservant.
A maidservant for a lowly and shameless mortal.
“What are you waiting for?” Li Mu said with a smile on his face, “Come here and ma.s.sage my back and legs. I’ve been fighting for so many days. Alas, I feel so tired...”
“You...” Cloud Light Saintess raged instinctively.
Li Mu glared at her and said, “What’s the matter? As my maidservant, you should behave like a maidservant. You don’t want to be my maidservant, do you? Get lost then. I don’t want a maidservant like you anyway.”
Cloud Light Saintess wanted to leave, but she knew very well that she couldn’t.
She ground her pearly white teeth so hard that they almost broke. She tried to hold back her anger that was about to erupt like a volcano. Then, she walked over to Li Mu, stood behind him, took several deep breaths in a row, put her hands on his shoulders, and began to ma.s.sage his shoulders.
“Ah, exert more strength. Haven’t you eaten your meal?” Li Mu said in a picky manner, ” You had plenty of strength when you wrapped yourself around me and tried to strangle me, didn’t you?”
“You... Don’t go overboard!” Cloud Light Saintess was on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
“You’ve touched my sore spot!”
Li Mu moved his shoulders and said, “Stop. Stop it! I really regret asking you to ma.s.sage my shoulders. That’s simply self-abuse. You’re so ugly and ill-tempered...”
“Hey, old fellow. You’re finally willing to take action. Does that mean I can do whatever I want in Qinling now?” He turned around and said to the old faker, “If you had taken action earlier, none of those things would have happened. I was almost beaten to death.”
“You know nothing! I did that for your sake and for tempering your character.” The old faker added, “Alright, save your breath. Hurry up and get back to Randeng Temple. Remember to take that dog with you. I want to kindly remind you that he’s much more famous than you now.”
With that, the old faker disappeared.
Li Mu turned his head and asked Cloud Light Saintess, “What’s the matter with that dog? Did he cause any trouble?”
Cloud Light Saintess lowered her head, gritting her teeth. “Aren’t you aware of what he did? He ate my cousin and tens of senior masters from various clans. He calls himself the King of Dogs, but the pract.i.tioners call him a demon dog.”
Li Mu’s jaw dropped.
Half a day later.
Camp on Mount Tianxuan.
As soon as Li Mu arrived at the gate of the camp, he saw a strange scene.
The demon tiger called “Rotten” seemed to think that it was a dog. It squatted at the entrance to the camp in a strange posture, stuck out its tongue, and wagged its tail. As soon as it saw Li Mu, it began to bark like a dog, “Woof, woof, woof...”
“What the f*ck.”
Li Mu almost thought he was hallucinating.
“This tiger has no f*cking integrity, does it?”
Upon hearing the noise, Ouyang Fu, Song Changlin, Old w.a.n.g and several others rushed out of the camp.
“Woof, ha-ha-ha, my dear human pet, you’re finally back... Everyone says that you’re dead, but I’ve never believed it. As the saying goes, ‘Good people don’t live long, but a scourge lives a thousand years.’ A G.o.d of plague like you will surely remain alive for ten thousand years, woof-ha-ha.”
The stupid Husky also rushed out of the camp.
Li Mu’s face darkened.
“A filthy mouth cannot utter decent words.”
“Come on. Have a look at the great world I’ve conquered for you...” The stupid Husky walked toward Li Mu on his hind legs, took off his sungla.s.ses, pointed at Mount Tianxuan, and said, “Ha-ha-ha, I have driven the others away from this mountain. From now on, it will be ours, ha-ha!”
Li Mu was speechless.
“Is he going to claim the mountain as his own?
“What’s the use of it?”
However, Li Mu felt that the fluctuations in the stupid dog’s life were much stronger than before and were like violent waves in the vast universe and boundless oceans, but strangely, he didn’t feel any particularly strong fluctuations in the dog’s power.
“Woof? Who is this woman? Why is she here?” The stupid dog was surprised to see Cloud Light Saintess behind Li Mu. “My dear pet, have you been captured by her? Don’t worry. I’m here to save you. Get out of the way and let me devour her.”
With that, he opened his mouth.
There seemed to be a swirling black vortex in his big mouth.
Li Mu was shocked by this sudden burst of power.
“What kind of power is this?
“Although this stupid dog used to be a greedy eater, he has never been so powerful before.”
Li Mu was startled. He rushed to the stupid dog, shut the latter’s mouth, and said, “She’s my new maidservant. Don’t make a fuss. She is a brand new servant, and I haven’t used her yet. You can’t afford to eat her.”
“Your maidservant?” The stupid dog rested his chin on his hands and laughed wickedly. “That means she’s mine, ha-ha. Hey, you, come here and comb my fur and rub my belly. Recently, I have devoured too many masters. I’m suffering from indigestion.”
Cloud Light Saintess snorted and ignored the dog.
The stupid dog snarled, “My human pet, your maidservant doesn’t know the rules and refuses to show me any respect. Let me devour her. I have eaten too many men recently. If I devour a woman, the Yin and Yang will be balanced and maybe my stomach will feel better.”
“Get out of my way.” Li Mu ignored the dog and greeted Old w.a.n.g and the other old men.
He found that the power of those strong old men seemed to have further increased.
“That’s really terrifying.”
“Little Mu, you’re finally back.”
Song Changlin and the others were also very excited.
Rumors about Li Mu had been spreading like wild fire. According to the news released by the major Divine Clans, Li Mu had died. That made the people in this camp very worried, but they couldn’t find a way to save him. Only the stupid dog firmly believed that he was not dead and guarded the camp while waiting for him to come back.
“How are you doing with the data collection?” Li Mu asked Song Changlin.
Upon hearing that, Song Changlin grew very excited. He said, “There’s no problem at all. I have collected all the required data. This time, I will surely develop a real killing machine and use technology to contend against the immortal sects.”
After exchanging greetings, they decided to leave Qinling.
One day later...
Li Mu returned to Randeng Temple with the dog, Cloud Light Saintess, Old w.a.n.g, and several others.
“Why did you ask me to rush back?” Li Mu came to the meditation room and saw the old faker packing up. It looked like the old faker was preparing to run away.
