Chapter 457 Falling Out
His gray hair had completely turned black and was as dense as a waterfall. He had a handsome but dignified face, and his facial features were perfect and flawless. He had a special charm, and his eyes were like an ancient well and abyss. Good and evil coexisted with each other. He overlooked all living beings and forgot their emotions.
He wore a coa.r.s.e cloth robe, which made him look like an emperor.
His aura had changed.
No matter if it was Li Mu or any other pract.i.tioner from outer s.p.a.ce, they could not help feeling a sense of insignificance when Fairy Emperor of Light looked at them. They felt that they were like ants that were targeted by a giant dragon. As long as the giant dragon breathed, it could blow them into ashes.
Li Mu didn’t say a word and just stood there quietly.
Just now when Fairy Emperor of Light was regulating his breathing, the Spiritual Qi of the world was surging like tides and all the people were forced to remain several kilometers away from the courtyard. The place where Li Mu and the others were located was the closest to the peak of the central peak of Five-finger Mountain, and they were almost close to the white cliff.
“Master, have you finally recovered?” w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu asked delightedly.
Fairy Emperor of Light looked at w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu, and a smile appeared on his face. He said, “It’s just that I’ve barely activated some of my spiritual qi, and I’m still far from recovering. However, I should be able to walk out of this Tomb of the G.o.d of Sin.”
As long as one walked out of the Tomb of the G.o.d of Sin, one would be freed from the confinement. There were infinite opportunities outside and also endless treasures, and one could slowly look for healing things.
It could be seen that he was in a good mood.
“Congratulations, Senior.”
“Congratulations, Senior.”
“It’s really a great honor for us to help you get out of the Tomb of the G.o.d of Sin.”
The cultivators all tried to flatter Fairy Emperor of Light.
When they faced the indigenous people on this planet, they were extremely strong and full of superiority. But in the face of stronger and higher-level beings, they inevitably showed the bad side of human nature and became flattering.
This was a kind of animal nature.
Fairy Emperor of Light nodded and said with a little enthusiasm, “I can get rid of the confinement and break all the fetters today. That’s right, I know what you are thinking. I won’t treat you badly. Tell me, what do you want?”
The cultivators from outer s.p.a.ce were boiling with excitement.
This was the moment they had been waiting for.
Some people hoped to get the cultivation methods, so Fairy Emperor of Light directly injected the brilliant cultivation methods into the minds of these people. The cultivators who got them all looked happy and intoxicated.
There were also people who hoped to follow Fairy Emperor of Light and serve him. However, he shook his head and refused.
How high was his status? As an Immortal Emperor, how could he be accompanied by any people? Wouldn’t he be laughed at? The final plan was to give them promises that they could help them once, which was enough to make these cultivators excited and crazy.
It could be said that the biggest purpose of their entry into the Tomb of the G.o.d of Sin this time had been achieved.
The Heavenly Deployment Sect had also received a promise from him to help them.
Ouyang Zhi bowed and said, “Senior, we, the Heavenly Deployment Sect, hope you can help us with one matter.”
Fairy Emperor of Light was in a good mood. He nodded and said with a smile, “Tell me, as the Red Dragon Mind Marrow Pill that you’ve just contributed is the most effective item among all the pills that can replenish the foundation, you can make another request.”
Ouyang Zhi was overjoyed and hurriedly said, “Master, our sect has a secret manual called the ‘Heavenly Taoist Array’, which was lost on this planet and obtained by a youth by accident. We begged him to return it and are willing to compensate him, but he refused. Therefore, we beg you to help us by making him return the manual.”
“Please help us, Senior.” Qian Zhenyun also told him the matter that Li Mu had occupied the Taoist methods with an extremely sincere look and said, “Li Mu is a friend of the Fairy. We don’t want to do anything else other than have the secret books returned.”
Fairy Emperor of Light looked at Li Mu and asked, “Young friend, is that true?”
Li Mu felt that with his vision and wisdom, it was not difficult for Fairy Emperor of Light to see through their trick, but he turned to ask him anyway. It was a bit strange, but he still shook his head and denied, saying, “There is no such thing at all.”
Qian Zhenyun said indignantly, “Li Mu, we’ve made such a big concession. Are you still not satisfied? It’s natural to return it to the original owner. Since you’re a friend of this fairy w.a.n.g, we’ve made a big concession. Don’t push us too far.”
Li Mu did not want to talk to such a hypocrite directly.
Fairy Emperor of Light looked at Li Mu and was about to speak.
w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu hurriedly said, “Master, the people of the Heavenly Deployment Sect are lying. Brother Mu’s formation is his own inheritance, which has nothing to do with them. These people are obviously coveting Brother Mu’s formation inheritance. They want to use this opportunity to take it.”
Fairy Emperor of Light shook his head and said, “You may leave first.”
Then, he turned to look at Li Mu and said, “Young friend, you once gifted me with divine fruits, which means that you’re on good terms with me. Why don’t you return the secret manual to the Heavenly Deployment Sect and I’ll teach you a manual that’s not inferior to that to make up for it? What do you think? Anyway, you’ve already practiced the secret technique of the ‘Heavenly Taoist Array’, so you won’t suffer any losses even if you give it away.”
As soon as these words came out, the people of the Heavenly Deployment Sect were immediately overjoyed.
They knew very well how brilliant the tactical deployment inheritance Li Mu held was. It was definitely far superior to the manuals of tactical deployment in the Brilliance Immortal Galaxy. Once they got it, it would be enough to make the Heavenly Deployment Sect improve a lot.
Li Mu looked at Fairy Emperor of Light with a calm face. He refused directly and said, “I’m sorry. Please forgive me.”
“You…” Ouyang Zhi was furious and said, “You even ignore your senior’s words. You are really… too arrogant.”
“You’re too arrogant. Who do you think you are?” Qian Zhenyun was also stunned and said, “You, you, you, you actually dare to refuse the good intention of the immortal. Li Mu, who on earth gave you the courage?”
There was indeed a hint of displeasure on Fairy Emperor of Light’s face.
Li Mu sneered and said, “The tactical deployment of the Divine Way lies in sincerity and in the combination of spirit with Taoism. It’s disgusting of you two to try and trick others. Do you really think that such a performance can deceive Fairy Emperor of Light? You can treat Fairy Emperor of Light as a tool, and you are very brave.”
Ouyang Zhi and Qian Zhenyun were both shocked.
All of a sudden, they also felt that they behaved too eagerly.
However, before they could explain, Fairy Emperor of Light said, “Young man, in the past thousand years, you were the first person to reject me. Do you know what the consequences of refusing me are?”
“Well? Old Master, what do you mean?” Ming Yue was unhappy on one side and said, “Why do you talk nonsense and help these evil people? These two guys are so sick and bad. Are you blind? Can’t you see that?”
A bright light flashed in Fairy Emperor of Light’s eyes. He glared at Ming Yue. A frightening pressure directly crushed her. He snorted coldly and said, “Are you blaming me?”
Ming Yue’s figure shook, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth. She couldn’t bear this kind of pressure at all. At the same time, Li Mu and Guo Yuqing moved at the same time to stand in front of Ming Yue to resist this pressure.
“Senior, what do you mean?” Li Mu’s face darkened as he stared at Fairy Emperor of Light.
Fairy Emperor of Light said indifferently, “If it weren’t for the fact that she had given me a bowl of blood previously, she would have been killed for blaming me, hehe… This time, it’s just a small punishment. If she dared to make a careless remark, do you really think that you would be able to withstand one of my attacks?”
“You…” Ming Yue was so angry that she flushed.
She did not understand why the amiable Fairy Emperor of Light had suddenly said so unreasonably. He was simply ruthless. It was obvious that the people of Heavenly Deployment Sect were talking nonsense.
Li Mu stopped Ming Yue from saying more impolite words. He turned to look at Fairy Emperor of Light and said, “Senior, you’ve finally recovered some of your strength, so you think you don’t need to pretend to be kind and try to finally expose your true self, do you?”
Fairy Emperor of Light said lightly, “I dominate the Ziwei Star Region. Wherever I go, I am the ruler of the major sects, ancient stars, and major clans. Those generals also bow their heads and salute to me. Immortal emperors can’t be insulted. Considering that those who don’t know will not be punished, I have already tolerated you, but you are still arrogant.”
Li Mu sneered and said, “Immortal Emperor? It’s said that one immortal and one devil are trapped in the tomb, but I don’t know if you are an immortal or a devil.”
The expression on Fairy Emperor of Light’s face suddenly changed. His eyes flashed with a hint of killing intent.
w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu noticed something and hurriedly begged him. “Master…”
Fairy Emperor of Light looked at w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu thoughtfully, and his killing intent gradually faded away. He said, “Since you have given me a reward, I won’t kill you today. Boy, hand over the inheritance of the formation and I will let you go.”
“Hoho, you still know that we have done you a favor.” At this time, Li Mu had already become completely angry. He sneered, “I didn’t ask you to repay my kindness, but you repay my kindness with revenge. Is this the spirit of an immortal? In my opinion, you are the devil of the Immortals and Devils who was trapped in the past, aren’t you?”
“How impudent.” Fairy Emperor of Light was enraged.
In an instant, terrible breaths swept out like a stormy wave. Li Mu and Guo Yuqing stood in the front. They only felt like boulders. .h.i.t their chests, and blood spurted out of their mouths in an instant. They retreated a hundred meters, but they forced themselves not to dodge. Like a mainstay, they protected the four people behind them, Ming Yue, Yuan Hu, and the others.
“Master.” w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu was very anxious. She rushed over desperately and shouted, “No… Master, if you kill Brother Mu and the others, then… I… I’m afraid I can no longer be your disciple.”
Fairy Emperor of Light suddenly turned around and looked at w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu.
“How dare you threaten me?” He was furious and said, “Do you know what you are doing? You bow to me. Master is like your father. Countless geniuses and marvels envy you for being my disciple. How dare you threaten me with this?”
“Master, please let them leave.” w.a.n.g s.h.i.+yu slowly knelt on the ground with a sad expression but firm eyes. “As long as you promise me this, I will follow you for the rest of my life. I dare not disobey you.”
