Chapter 760: An Emergency

Chapter 759 An Emergency

“How dare you be so impudent?”

“Do you have any right to speak in Taibai City?”

Before the others could speak, the four disciples of Hun Yuan Sect already started to rebuke.

“Xu Zhi, do you know who you are talking to?” A hook-nosed disciple looked at the young leader of the imperial guards of the Qin Empire with his eyes flashing with killing intent.

The leader of imperial guards sneered and said indifferently, “I know the Four Great Generals of Taibai City. He-he, I wonder if the Lord of Taibai City known as the god of martial art is really worthy of the name.”

He looked at Li Mu provocatively.

Li Mu ignored him.

The Qin Emperor Qin Zheng turned around and shouted, “General Xu, don’t be rude. Mr. Li is the benefactor for my royal sister and me ... Apologize to him.”

The young leader of imperial guards named Xu Zhi was obviously unwilling to apologize, but he still bowed and said, “Yes, Your Majesty.”

Just when Xu Zhi was about to say something, Li Mu waved his hand and said, “Forget it. I won’t stoop to the level of a child.”

Xu Zhi was a rising star. His talent and cultivation were very good and comparable to those of the hook-nosed disciple and the other three disciples of Hun Yuan Sect, so it was normal for him to be proud and ambitious.

“My sister has been missing you very much,” said the Qin Emperor Qin Zheng.

The image of a white-robed, peerlessly beautiful swordswoman from Peace County popped into Li Mu’s head. She was Qin Zhen, the imperial princess of the Qin Empire. There was once something going on between them, but that was a long time ago. For Li Mu, it was just an episode in his life, so he didn’t expect too much.

After all, they were still friends.

Li Mu nodded and said, “If I have time, I will pay a visit to Her Imperial Highness Princess.”

Qin Zheng was a little surprised.

“Does he mean that he wouldn’t pay a visit if he didn’t have time?”

After talking with Li Mu for a while, Qin Zheng felt that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, so he made an excuse and left Taibai City.

Before leaving, the young man named Xu Zhi turned around, glanced at Li Mu, and said with a sneer, “In today’s world, the Void-breaking Realm is no longer a big deal. Some so-called legendary figures of martial arts once enjoyed glory days on the Heavenly Land. However, when they entered the Star River outside, they lived even worse than pigs and dogs, and having no dignity, they had no other choice but to find a way to come back here...”

With that, he swaggered out of the hall.

Li Mu frowned slightly as he watched the Qin Emperor and the others leave.

After a short while, many civilians of the county and some old friends came to see Li Mu. The busy afternoon soon passed.

Night descended.

Li Mu hosted a small private dining event to entertain his close friends.

At the banquet, Li Mu took out the best wine and shared it with the guests.

When they were having a good time drinking, Xu Sheng, the Supreme Elder of Yue Mountain Faction, suddenly said to Li Mu, “Bro, the Qin Emperor came here immediately after he learned that you were back. He said that he wanted to thank you for doing a great favor for him back then. However, he came here with imperial guards and armored soldiers instead of a gift of gratitude. Moreover, Xu Zhi was rude to you, but he didn’t receive a proper punishment... Bro, you have to be on guard. The Qin Empire is now the greatest military power on the Heavenly Land, and it has recruited a lot of masters and experts.”

Li Mu smiled. “It’s not worth mentioning.”

Just then, Qiu Yin said, “The young emperor has been in power for just five years. As he reached the peak in his life and became the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, his ambition was also growing rapidly. In the past half a year, there have been many conflicts and confrontations between Guanshan Pasture and the imperial court of the Qin Empire.”

His words were euphemistic, but they conveyed the same meaning as Xu Sheng’s words.

Guanshan Pasture used to be a Holy Clan that supported the fate of the Western Qin Empire. Later, the world fell into chaos, Li Poyue died in the war, and Guanshan Pasture was seized by villains. From then on, the influence of Guanshan Pasture on the Qin Empire gradually diminished.

As the Western Qin Empire accumulated strength and conquered the Northern Song and Southern Chu relying on the influence of Taibai City, the former top nine Holy Clans ceased to exist, and the power of the imperial family soared. As a result, the relationship between Guanshan Pasture and the Western Qin Empire had completely changed, involving many conflicts and confrontations.

Li Mu slowly put the glass down.

The people on the Heavenly Land knew very little about what happened in the Star River, especially things related to him. Even when the Dark Yellow Army came to Heavenly Land, they acted prudently and secretly.

He wanted to keep a low profile.

Taking the Heavenly Land as the home planet of the Dark Yellow Army did not mean a massacre of aborigines. Otherwise, it would be no different from what the six major clans did in the past.

However, Li Mu had underestimated some people’s ambitions.

“In the past year, the Western Qin Empire has sent envoys several times to persuade Taibai City to submit to the Qin Empire, but Taibai City has rejected the request,” said Feng Yuanxing.

“Being by the side of an emperor is just like being with a tiger.” Ma Junwu sighed with emotion.

Although his sigh was somewhat pointless, Li Mu learned something from the several “elders” in Taibai City.

He began to think about some things that he had neglected before.

Back then, Qin Zheng was a guileless little boy that could distinguish right from wrong. However, his sister forced him to learn the arts and skills of being an emperor. Therefore, he grew increasingly ambitious and cold-hearted after he became the emperor of the Qin Dynasty.

At that time, Li Mu killed many members of the imperial family of the Western Qin Empire, including the emperor in power, the brothers of the emperor in power, and princes... The father of the current Qin Emperor Qin Zheng also died at the hands of Li Mu.

Therefore, there was a deadly feud between Li Mu and the imperial family of the Qin Empire.

Back then, Li Mu was not referred to as the Royals’ Terminator for no reason.

“At first, I didn’t want to mess with any imperial power in the world.”

Li Mu rubbed the area between his eyebrows and stood up. Then, he ran his eyes over the guests at the banquet, raised his glass, and said, “I won’t show any mercy on anyone trying to spoil my plan.”

It was the most dangerous time for the Earth and the Dark Yellow Army.

Li Mu knew that he had to take care of the “internal affairs” as soon as possible and then free himself to face the armies of the six major clans. If anyone dared to stand in his way, he would never show any mercy.

While they were talking, the sounds of drumbeats suddenly came from outside the hall.

The look on Ma Junwu’s face suddenly changed. “Your Honor, I’ll go check it out and be back soon.”

Then, he left in a hurry.

About ten minutes later, he came back with an angry look on his face that could not be concealed. He got down on one knee and reported, “Your Honor, we have received an urgent message from the Great Moon Empire. The troops of the Qin Empire have attacked the ten cities and nine regions and besieged Longcheng Pass. Those cities and regions are in the flames of war. The Great Moon Empire has suffered heavy losses under the surprise attack. They request the Taibai Mountain to mediate this matter.”

“Hmm?

“How could such a thing happen?

“How could the troops of the Qin Empire attack the Great Moon Empire having ten cities and nine regions?”

Li Mu suddenly remembers Yu Hualong, the crown prince of the Great Moon Empire, and Li Anzhi, the baby that he adopted at that time.

Yu Hualong had obtained the cultivation secrets of the Ghost Rally Star, improved his cultivation level greatly, and become the emperor of the Great Moon Empire. Li Anzhi had become the little princess of the Great Moon Empire due to her association with Li Mu.

The two of them should have learned that Li Mu had returned, but they didn’t show up today.

Could it be that they had returned to their empire because of the war?

“Your Honor.” At this time, Feng Yuanxing stepped up and said in a low voice, “According to the message received, the emperor and princess of the Great Moon Empire were ambushed on their way to Taibai City, the guards escorting them suffered heavy casualties, and the whereabouts of the emperor and princess of the Great Moon Empire are unknown.”

“What?”

“Who dares to attack the people of the Great Moon Empire?”

“An ambush?”

Xu Sheng, Qiu Yin, and the others were greatly shocked and could not believe it when they heard the news.

“This is an emergency.”

Li Mu narrowed his eyes slightly.

“Some people are really courting death.”

“Come on. Let’s go to the scene and have a look.”

In several breaths of time, Li Mu led Qiu Yin and the others to the place where the people of the Great Moon Empire were attacked.

Dead bodies were all over the place, and the blood on the ground had dried up.

A massacre took place here.

Many soldiers of the Great Moon Empire died with their eyes open, lying on the bloodstained ground.

The martial arts practitioners of Taibai City were standing guard and maintaining order around the scene.

Li Mu took a look at the scene, shook his head and said, “It’s not a surprise attack, but a scheme. Those soldiers of the Great Moon Empire were poisoned before the battle.”

He found some clues about the attackers at the scene.

With the help of his Taoist magic arts, he clearly knew where the attackers had gone.

“Chase them!”

Li Mu decided to intervene.

After all, the Great Moon Empire was a branch of the Dark Yellow Army. He could not just sit back and do nothing. Moreover, he had to find out the whereabouts of Yu Hualong and Li Anzhi.
