Tianling City is located in the suite on the top floor of Tianlong Restaurant.
Gao also slammed the luminous wine glass in his hand on the ground. The priceless glass shattered instantly, and the crystal clear fragments fell on the expensive carpet, shining brightly in the moonlight outside the window.
The face of the young master of the Gao Chamber of Commerce was ashen, and the veins on his forehead could be faintly seen popping up, and his eyes were full of unwillingness and regret.
The man sitting next to him looked like a walking zombie. With his messy hair and dull eyes, no one would have guessed that a month ago he was a disciple of the Xuantian Sword Sect of the Cangyun Empire.
"No, no, Brother Li will not die so easily. He and Yu An must have escaped."
Wang Yao's muttering to himself made Gao Ye feel like a knife, and the flood of guilt made him punch the table in front of him again. If he hadn't mistakenly overestimated the strength of his own team, he had seriously underestimated it.
With the difficulty of this treasure hunt, maybe no one will die.
In Gao Ye's view, it was his frog-like behavior that caused the current irreversible situation, especially Li Mu, who was forced into the car by him temporarily, but his path to immortality was cut short.
After coming out of the Human Emperor's Secret Realm, Gao also used the power of the Chamber of Commerce to constantly pay attention to the movements of other participating forces.
About a month later, the subordinate in charge of intelligence brought the latest development and the worst news.
All members of Tingxuelou's team returned to the Snow Realm. At the same time, they also released the news to the outside world. The birth of the Human Emperor's secret treasure, which caused a sensation in the fairy world, ended with the collapse of the secret realm. Except for them and another mysterious team, other participants
All of them perished.
As soon as the news came out, the entire fairy world was in an uproar. You must know that the team participating in the treasure hunt included the best young monks today. All of them can be called genius monsters. How could they all die and disappear?
But just when everyone was talking about it, news of the death of the younger generation came out from many superpowers, including the Guixu Sect, the Qinling Ghost Capital, and the Tang Sect.
After all, those monks are well-known in the fairy world. Even if these forces are unwilling to disclose it due to face, others will always see the flaws through clues.
Just like the seven Shuidao members of the Guixu Sect were all wiped out, such a big thing cannot be hidden, so in the end these overlords openly admitted the fact that they failed to seize the treasure.
As the news from all parties gradually gathered, many versions of the competition for the Human Emperor's secret treasure were spread all over the world. The most common one was that Tingxue Tower was the final winner. However, in order not to become the target of public criticism, another version was made up.
The lies of the mysterious team.
But in the end, it was no longer important to Gao Ye who obtained the treasures and inheritance of the Human Emperor clan. They only hoped that Li Mu and Bai Yu'an could return safely, but as time went by, this hope also faded.
It's becoming more and more remote.
"Young... Young Master!"
Just when Gao Ye and Wang Yao couldn't accept this tragic fact, the door to the room was pushed open violently, and the light in the corridor shone in instantly, causing both of them to squint their eyes.
This is the top floor of Tianlong Restaurant. Except for a few people, no one can come up casually, let alone open the door without hesitation.
After finally seeing the person clearly, Gao Ye's heart trembled suddenly, because the panting person standing at the door was none other than the maid he had specially arranged to serve Li Mu, Zhen Ni.
You must know that after learning about Li Mu's unfortunate death, this maid who used to work at the bottom floor of Tianlong Restaurant was the one who cried the most, shedding tears almost every day.
If it weren't for Li Mu, she might have just been bullied in a restaurant all her life, and even lived a life without enough to eat.
It was Li Mu's appearance that made her gain Gao Ye's appreciation, and she was assigned to the department responsible for daily management in the restaurant, completing the transformation of her life. Therefore, for Zhen Ni, when something happened to Li Mu, it was like a bolt from the blue.
Completely shattered her world.
But it is exactly like this that the current Zhen Ni has made Gao Ye and Wang Yao ignite hope again, because there is still a little bit of sadness on the girl's face, but it is full of excitement and joy.
"Li...Brother Li, he...he is back."
At this time, Li Mu was sitting in the restaurant of Tianlong Restaurant, wolfing down all kinds of food in his stomach, such as chicken wings, steaks, etc., but he emptied them all.
"I didn't expect that I stayed in the kernel world for so long. It's already been a month."
While Li Mu stuffed a whole piece of beef into his mouth, he thought that after filling his stomach, he would quickly find Gao Ye and the others. He had been missing for such a long time, so I believe his companions must be very anxious.
"Brother Li."
"Brother Li."
Two familiar shouts came from behind. Li Mu turned around and saw that it was Gao Ye, Wang Yao and the maid Zhen Ni whom he had just met who had rushed over after learning the news.
"Are you here? I just finished eating and wanted to go find you. What's wrong? With these expressions, didn't I tell you that I would definitely come back alive?"
Li Mu was naturally excited when he saw Gao Ye and others, but he who had just come out of the Human Emperor's Secret Realm didn't know that various versions of gossip had been flying all over the place in the past month. Looking at Zhen Ni, she was so excited that she shed tears and couldn't help scratching her head.
He scratched his head and said.
"By the way, Junior Brother Wang and Junior Sister Bai are fine now. The poison in her was automatically removed after the secret realm collapsed. I have placed her in the wing room upstairs to rest."
Wang Yao's several attempts to ask questions were caught by Li Mu. He knew that the other party was anxious about Bai Yu'an, so he quickly spoke out the latest situation.
Unexpectedly, Wang Yao, who was overjoyed, knelt down directly. Before Li Mu could react, he excitedly kowtowed three times in a row, then got up and rushed towards Bai Yu'an's room.
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back, Brother Li, if something happens to you, I, Gao, will really die to apologize."
Li Mu, who had not yet come to his senses, immediately received a warm hug from Gao Ye. After a long time, the two of them returned to the top-floor wing where they had stayed before departure.
Zhen Ni had already arranged for someone to clean the previously messy room. The bright lights and soft couch made Li Mu finally relax.
"Brother Li, what happened after Junior Brother Wang and I left? You don't know what has been spread outside in the past month. The various versions of the story make it impossible to tell the truth from the false."
Li Mu picked up the tea in his hand and drank it all. He opened his mouth but didn't know how to answer Gao Ye's question. Whether it was his identity as a Fuxi clan or the crisis of annihilation mentioned by Emperor Feng Xuan, it was not suitable to make it public now.
.
It's not that he is wary of Gao Ye and Zhen Ni beside him, but that he doesn't have a clue about many things yet, and it is definitely not a wise choice to easily involve unrelated partners.
