Li Mu learned about the self-recommendation from the Queen.
Because of the relationship with Ao Qing, to a certain extent, Li Mu and Cheng Xin have the same blood flowing in their bodies. As long as they are close to each other, a desire will arise in their hearts.
This is instinctive desire, not liking or love.
Li Mu can distinguish the difference between the two, so he can suppress his desires, but Satsuma obviously cannot.
Li Mu did not take this matter to heart. He still had a lot of things to do. The Galaxy Immortal Realm was a world where strong men were rampant. If he wanted to gain a foothold here, it was not enough for him alone.
The Queen, Fan Ji, Su He, and other powerful men from the Dao Sect must improve their strength as soon as possible.
…
Gong Yun, the former Lord of Tianyun City, survived two thunder tribulations and was transferred to Galaxy Immortal Palace. Tianyun City soon welcomed its new owner.
This new city lord of Tianyun City acted in a high-profile manner. As soon as he arrived in Tianyun City, he started a large-scale construction project and built a villa. For this purpose, he collected a heavy tax from the practitioners in Tianyun City. This made many people in Tianyun City
The practitioners are a little worried about their future life under the rule of this city lord.
When he first arrived, the second thing the new city lord did was to hold a banquet in the villa he had just built and invite the powerful people near Tianyun City.
As one of the few strong people in the Ninth Realm, Li Mu was naturally invited.
It was hard for him to refuse the new city lord's invitation. After all, Tianyun City was nominally under the other party's jurisdiction. This banquet was probably because he wanted to get to know the powerful people in the jurisdiction.
Before heading to Tianyun City, the Queen said to Li Mu: "Let A Li accompany you."
Li Mu waved his hand and said, "No, I can go alone."
Zhou Wu shook her head and said: "You are the leader of the Dao Sect and a strong person in the ninth level. If you have no one to serve you, you will be looked down upon by others."
There is some truth in what the Queen said. The strong men in the Galaxy Fairyland are very particular about pomp and circumstance when traveling. It is not uncommon for eight people to carry a sedan chair and scatter flowers. Even those with a reserved and low-key temperament are often accompanied by a flute player.
Boys, girls holding fans, etc. were invited by City Lord Tianyun, but Li Mu went to the banquet alone, which made him look different, and even seemed like he didn't take the new City Lord seriously.
This kind of occasion is not suitable for bringing a wife. There are too few people around Li Mu to choose from.
Wenxin is a dragon, but in the Galaxy Immortal Realm, he is a strange beast, and is not suitable to appear in that kind of situation.
Mrs. Mei is not the right age. After much thought, it seems that A Li is the only choice.
Li Mu shrugged and said, "It depends on whether A Li is willing or not."
Li Mu hasn't seen her a few times recently. It's obvious that she deliberately avoided Li Mu.
Before Li Mu set off, A Li appeared at his side on time.
Li Mu thought for a while and said, "If you don't want to go, forget it. This banquet is not interesting in the first place."
Shangguan Li's expression was calm and he said calmly: "No, this is your Majesty's order."
A-Li has been a lot stranger to him since a few days ago. Although the two of them used to be tit-for-tat and dislike each other, there is no distance or barrier like now.
There was no words all the way. After arriving at the new city lord's mansion in Tianyun City, A Li stood silently half a step behind Li Mu, playing the role of a maid.
In the city lord's palace, a young man dressed in luxurious clothes gestured towards Li Mu and said, "This must be Fellow Daoist Li, I have admired you for a long time..."
Li Mu's eyes swept over this person, feeling slightly surprised.
Gong Yun survived two thunder tribulations and was transferred to the Galaxy Immortal Palace. Li Mu originally thought that the new city master's cultivation would be weaker, but he did not expect that this person had also survived two thunder tribulations, and in terms of cultivation, it seemed that
Even stronger than Gong Yun.
These thoughts just flashed through his mind, and Li Mu responded: "I have met the city lord."
There are not many Ninth Realm experts in Tianyun City and nearby areas. Apart from Li Mu, there are three others, each from three major forces.
After everyone sat down, the young man raised his wine glass and said with a smile: "I am new to Tianyun City and I am not familiar with everything here. I am afraid I will have to trouble you all a lot in the future..."
"It should."
"If you have anything to do, Lord City Lord, please feel free to give me your orders."
…
After Tianyun City Lord spoke, most people echoed his words. Only a few Ninth Realm experts remained silent.
After all, such powerful men have their own dignity. Even if the other party is the Lord of Tianyun City, he is not worthy of their humiliation and flattery.
At this time, the Lord of Tianyun City, who was sitting in the main seat, still had a faint smile on his face, but a hint of gloom flashed in his heart.
These ninth-level experts in Tianyun City would obviously not be won over by him so easily, let alone surrender.
Coming here from the Galaxy Immortal Palace, he was full of dissatisfaction, but Tianyun City was far away from the center and there was no one to control it, which was not entirely a bad thing, provided that he had absolute control over this place.
Soon the banquet started. Li Mu did not use his chopsticks first, but picked up a piece of delicate pastry from the table and handed it to A Li behind him.
Shangguan Li stood behind Li Mu with an expressionless face, neither accepting nor accepting.
The Queen is the person she respects and loves the most in her heart. She can never do anything to disgrace the Queen. Even if the Queen agrees, she cannot convince herself.
So these days, she has been keeping a distance from Li Mu.
She shouldn't have accepted the pastry handed over by Li Mu, but Li Mu's actions had attracted the attention of many people here. If she continued to ignore it, I'm afraid everyone would notice it.
She could only reach out and take the pastry, but she could only hold it in her hand.
Even so, this also attracted the attention of the city lord of Tianyun City.
He looked at Li Mu, the youngest among the Ninth Realm experts, and his eyes moved slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
After a moment, he showed a smile on his face, looked at Li Mu, and suddenly said: "I am very fond of the maid behind Daoyou Li. I wonder if you are willing to give her to me as a token of gratitude. The maid of the city lord's palace, said
Friends can choose any ten..."
If anyone else present was exchanging a maid for the favor of the new city lord, they would probably be extremely excited. After all, this is an opportunity to make friends with the city lord.
The other three ninth-level experts in the field had already noticed something, and their expressions changed slightly.
This new city lord is completely different from the former city lord Gong Yun. The relationship between fellow Daoist Li and the maid behind him is obviously not ordinary. He made such a sudden request with bad intentions.
Obviously, he wanted to establish his authority.
If Li Mu agrees, he will submit to him, and his subsequent methods will follow.
If Li Mu doesn't agree, he can take the opportunity to assert his authority on the spot. There is no doubt that after Li Mu, it will be their turn.
Behind Li Mu, Shangguan Li looked pale and felt extremely flustered.
At this moment, her cold palm was suddenly gently squeezed by another warm hand.
The warmth from the palm of her hand made her heart completely quiet. It was at this moment that a faint voice sounded in the hall.
"I don't want to."
After hearing this, the strong men in the field looked at the young figure in front of them with shocked expressions. He did not give the new city lord any face...
The expression on the young man's face gradually changed from a smile to a calm one, and he looked at Li Mu: "Fellow Daoist Li, don't you even give me this thin face?"
How could Li Mu not know that when the new city lord took office, he was the first to be burned.
The other party didn't have any thoughts about A Li, he just wanted to use Li Mu's power. This person could be him or the other three Ninth Realm people, but obviously, among the four, Li Mu seemed to be the easiest to bully.
He picked up the wine glass, took a sip of wine, and said with a smile, "No."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present began to feel faintly excited.
The conflict between the new city lord and the strong man in the ninth realm is such a lively event, which is rarely seen on weekdays.
The young man looked at Li Mu, his expression turned into a sneer, "It seems that Fellow Daoist Li doesn't take me seriously at all..."
Li Mu ignored him, stood up slowly, took A Li's hand, and said, "Let's go. If I had known it would be so boring, I wouldn't have come..."
"stop!"
The new city lord had a sullen face and stood up suddenly. Since he had chosen this person to establish his authority today, how could he let him leave so easily?
Li Mu turned around and glanced at him with a half-smile.
This smile made his hair stand on end, and an extreme crisis suddenly arose in his heart.
He froze, and just as he was about to find the source of the crisis, the expressions of the three other ninth-level experts present suddenly changed, and they looked up at the sky.
"This feeling……"
"No, it's a natural disaster!"
"Retreat, retreat quickly!"
…
A familiar feeling of a heavenly calamity made their souls risk. Although this calamity was not aimed at them, there would still be a life-and-death crisis in the center of the calamity.
Almost instantly, all the cultivators present withdrew from the place ten miles away.
The new city lord was left looking up at the sky, with a face full of fear, and said in a trembling voice: "Impossible, the next catastrophe is still ten years away, how could it happen now..."
However, no one could give him the answer to this question.
The calamity cloud in the sky had already taken shape, and the first thunder struck down instantly. He, who was not prepared to survive the calamity, had only one thought in his mind after enduring the first thunder and being severely injured in an instant.
"My life is at an end!"
Ten miles away.
Everyone watched with pale faces as the thunderbolts fell one after another. In just a few breaths, the hall where they were just now turned into ruins.
Fortunately, both the waiters in the palace and the invited powerful men had a certain level of cultivation and retreated in time. Otherwise, I don’t know how many of them would have perished there.
At this moment, everyone had forgotten the conflict in the palace. After the clouds of calamity slowly dissipated, some people had the courage to step forward to check. However, in that place, except for a huge charred pit, there was no trace of the new city lord.
.
The newly appointed Lord of Tianyun City was destroyed both physically and mentally by the catastrophe.
In the void, Li Mu let go of A Li's hand and whispered: "Let's go..."
The death of the new city lord from a natural disaster triggered a discussion within Tianyun City that lasted for several months. Apart from lamenting his misfortune, no one connected it to other aspects.
After all, heavenly catastrophes have been formed naturally from ancient times to the present. Everyone watched him die from the heavenly tribulations, so naturally it was impossible to suspect others.
In this regard, Galaxy Immortal Palace sent people to investigate, but in the end it was ignored.
Soon, Tianyun City had a new city lord. This city lord had a relatively low-key and reserved personality. After taking over Tianyun City, he just quietly retreated in the mansion for ten years.
In the past ten years, everything in Tianyun City was stable and nothing major happened.
However, starting from a few years ago, a country named Dazhou suddenly appeared outside Tianyun City and thousands of miles away.
This country is quite mysterious. There are powerful protective formations outside the country's borders, making it difficult for outsiders to enter. However, some shops from the Zhou Kingdom have appeared in Tianyun City, and many Zhou people have also made their mark in Tianyun City.
Among them, there are wealthy businessmen who are not high in cultivation but dominate the entire Tianyun City business world, and there are also strong men from the Zhou Dynasty who have great achievements. Some of them follow the rules, some are awe-inspiring and upright, and some are holding Zen staffs and bowls, and they use their hands to fight.
Full of hostility...
The existence of these powerful men from the Zhou Kingdom made it possible for almost no one in the Zhou Kingdom to bully them in Tianyun City, and they gradually grew into a powerful force near Tianyun City.
Tianyun City is thousands of miles away.
In the sky, under the calamity clouds, a graceful figure danced among the thunder in the sky. After a moment, a powerful breath swept out from the body of the beautiful figure, causing the calamity clouds in the sky to slowly dissipate.
And in the space where the figure was, a strange power emerged, causing her originally illusory soul to slowly solidify.
Li Mu slowly stretched out his hand and touched Su He's warm palm, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth gradually widened...
For most practitioners in the Galaxy Immortal Realm, ten years is just a period of retreat, but ten years is enough for Li Mu to send the Queen, Fan Ji and Su He to the Ninth Realm.
Even Liu Hanyan, Li Qing, Wanwan Xiaobai and others have all broken through to the upper three realms.
The Queen entered the Ninth Realm a year ago, Fan Ji also became the Nine-tailed Sky Fox half a year ago, and Su He was the last one to break through, and she could finally have her own body temperature as she wished.
One month later.
Countless figures stood in the square in front of the Great Zhou New Palace in the Galaxy Immortal Realm. Li Mu promised them that after Su He broke through, he would take them around the Galaxy Immortal Realm.
In the past ten years, Li Mu's cultivation has also been advancing by leaps and bounds. He doesn't know how many thunder tribulations he has experienced, and he doesn't know what level of strength he has reached, but what he can be sure of is that throughout the Galaxy Immortal Realm,
, he also has the ability to protect those around him.
For this trip, Li Mu had someone build a huge colorful boat. Even if more than a hundred people lived in it, it would not seem crowded.
Liu Hanyan, Li Qing, Wanwan Xiaobai... almost everyone had already boarded the colorful boat. During this trip, Li Mu only brought all his wives. Under the colorful boat, only the Queen was still chatting with Mrs. Mei and
Ali said goodbye.
Li Mu stretched out his hand to her, but Zhou Wu did not hold it. Instead, she gave Li Mu a look and boarded the colorful boat.
Li Mu knew the depth of her eyes and looked at A Li. Shangguan Li immediately looked away.
In the past ten years, she has still avoided Li Mu everywhere. As for the reason, Li Mu naturally knows.
He looked into A Li's eyes and slowly stretched out his hand to her.
Shangguan Li was stunned for a moment. After looking at each other, he looked at the bow of the ship. Zhou Wu stood there looking at her and nodded slightly to her.
Shangguan Li moved his lips, complex emotions brewing in his eyes for a long time, and finally reached out to Li Mu tremblingly.
But there was a hand faster than hers, and it quickly grasped Li Mu's hand.
Li Mu looked at Zheng Xin who was inserting his hand and said angrily: "Let go."
Chengxin grabbed his hand firmly, shook her head and said, "No, I want to go out and play with you too..."
Li Mu shook it twice, but did not shake off Zheng Zhi's hand. He could only let her hold it, stretched out his other hand to A Li, and said softly: "Let's go, don't keep them waiting too long..."
[PS: Let’s stop writing the extra chapter here for the time being. The blank space, character endings and those small regrets have almost been made up. It’s a bit boring to write it down. Next, I will put all my energy into the new book and meet you all soon. 】
