The Divine Martial Stars - Chapter 1011 - Chapter 1011 Taibai Empire
Chapter 1011 Taibai Empire
Li Mu went back to the Heavenly Land Planet.
“Young Master?”
“Young Master, you’ve finally returned.”
Taibai City was now a big city as beautiful as a fairyland. It had a population of more than one million. In addition to the indigenous people who used to live here, there were also many devils and monsters. They yearned for the Spiritual Qi in Taibai Mountain, immigrated here, and settled down.
Human beings and the devil races lived in harmony.
Qing Feng and Ming Yue were both young and brilliant. Now they were already famous big shots. Ming Yue was still an adorkable foodie, while Qing Feng was more mature. He liked to imitate Li Mu’s style of dressing. He was wearing white clothes, simple and plain.
At the sight of Li Mu, Qing Feng put on a heartfelt smile, but Ming Yue jumped into Li Mu’s arms like a rabbit just like before.
“Er. You are a big girl. Pay attention to your behavior. You act so crazily. How can Qing Feng marry you in the future?” Li Mu teased her directly.
Ming Yue’s face suddenly turned red.
“Oh? There is really something strange.” Li Mu laughed.
“Third brother.” Guo Yuqing smiled and opened his arms to Li Mu.
Li Mu went up to him and gave him a bear hug. Then, he noticed something and said happily, “Brother, you must have experienced some special adventure, right? Your cultivation has soared to such a high level.”
This was truly a pleasant surprise.
Since Li Mu went out of the Heavenly Land, his connection with Guo Yuqing had decreased, but his brotherhood with Guo Yuqing had not weakened at all. When they met again, Li Mu was delighted to find that Guo Yuqing’s cultivation had reached the Upper King Realm. It could be said that his cultivation had improved by leaps and bounds. It should have something to do with the Everlasting Heaven of the Wolf Temple.
“Third brother.” Qiu Yin, the Broadsword Man, also came and hugged Li Mu.
He was the future leader of the Guanshan Pasture. Although his strength hadn’t improved as much as that of Guo Yuqing, he was at the peak of the Soldier Realm and almost reached the General Realm. He could be regarded to be super-class on the planet of Heavenly Land.
Ma Junwu, Feng Yuanxing, and others also came and saluted Li Mu.
In the past, they were small officials in Taibai County, Chang’an Mansion, Western Qin Empire. They were even not qualified to be graded at that time. But now, they had cultivated martial arts. It prolonged their lives even if they were not the top experts. Besides, they enjoyed a high status and were carefree. Compared with the killed Deputy county magistrate and Dianshi janitor, they were much better. Looking back on the past, they sighed that following Li Mu was the best choice in their lives. Even the so-called officials who had helped emperors to ascend the throne in history could not compare with them in terms of wealth and opportunities.
Li Mu also sighed with emotion and patted them on the shoulder.
The news that Li Mu was coming had already been spread out, so Taibai County was in an uproar. Especially those indigenous people were grateful to Li Mu. More than ten years ago, when Li Mu lined up at the gate of the county and waited to enter, no one expected the poor and remote Taibai County would become a fairyland in less than twenty years.
In fact, not only did Li Mu, an outsider, change the fate of Ma Junwu and others, but he also changed the history of Taibai City, Western Qin, and even the planet of Heavenly Land.
The indigenous people now had a very high status in the city. The original old city area was the core area of Taibai City. It was the territory of these indigenous people. Some indigenous people rented their old houses out, and they could buy houses in the new city area with only monthly rent. They didn’t have to work hard for a lifetime, and they didn’t have to worry about food and clothing. The children of the original farmers were now accepted by the martial arts schools in the city for free. They could practice martial arts. The officials would put the status and interests of the indigenous people as the first priority.
“Master Li Qingtian.”
“County Master.”
“Mr. county magistrate.”
All kinds of names made Li Mu feel like he had returned to the day when he first arrived at Taibai City. He took a closer look and found that some of the indigenous people who knelt on the ground around him looked quite familiar. The Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth in Taibai City was thick. The mountains, rivers, and trees here contained spiritual charm. Even ordinary people who did not cultivate could live longer if they drank mountain spring water, ate grain, and breathed in the air of this place. After more than ten years, their appearances had not changed much.
“My fellow villagers, please get up.” Li Mu said.
Reuniting with his old friends was also a reappearance of emotions.
Li Mu had seen too many ups and downs. He no longer liked to be pretentious in front of his old friends after making great achievements. He did not put on air and was more easygoing than before.
He finally came to the front gate of the Knife Hut along the street, escorted by the crowd.
A few years ago, Li Mu killed the future leaders of the six major clans and many kings. Then, he returned to the Heavenly Land and destroyed the Qin Emperor who had lost his original intention. He replaced the Qin Empire which almost unified the Heavenly Land. The big capital city was the only fiefdom left in the Qin Empire. The former royals of the Qin Empire had been raised in Qin City, and their bloodline was retained.
In the past, the other two of the three empires, the Northern Song and the Southern Chu, had been smashed into pieces by the Western Qin. The three empires almost ended up the same.
The entire Heavenly Land was unified under the power of Taibai City.
Taibai City had become the administrative, military, and financial center of the planet of Heavenly Land.
It was no exaggeration to say that Taibai City was the Holy Land of the entire Heavenly Land.
The Knife Hut was the core of Taibai City. It was like a Holy Land in the Holy Land.
The Knife Hut was located in the original place of the county government organ in Taibai City. The location was good, and it was at the highest place in Taibai City. After moving the county government organ away, Li Mu built the Knife Hut there to gather Spiritual Qi and practice the Broadsword-using methods here. He had achieved initial success in his Broadsword-using methods here.
Later, Li Mu came back from the universe and rebuilt the tactical deployment system in Taibai City. The Knife Hut had also been renovated. Now, it was the nominal residence of Li Mu’s mother, who was the highest-ranking person in the entire Heavenly Land.
Of course, the person was Li Mu born in this world.
However, this person had disappeared for a long time. Li Mu searched and deduced several times, but he could not find any clues about the person. Therefore, his mother had been living here.
Li Mu’s mother was once blind. Now, her sight had recovered.
Hua Xiangrong, Shangguan Wan’er, and the other girls who had been bought by Li Mu from the Musical House of Chang’an City were accompanying her. Several of them had already gotten married, but they often came to the Knife Hut to visit and serve Li Mu’s mother.
When Li Mu arrived at the door of the Knife Hut, Li Mu’s mother, Hua Xiangrong, and the others were waiting there.
“Mother.” Li Mu saluted.
Li Mu’s mother smiled.
It had been such a long time. There was no need to know the details about some things. She was a smart woman.
“Darling.” Hua Xiangrong said with a happy smile.
Li Mu held Li Mu’s mother and winked at Hua Xiangrong.
Hua Xiangrong’s pretty face suddenly turned slightly red.
After the group of people entered the Knife Hut, the crowd outside gradually dispersed.
For the people in Taibai City, every time Li Mu returned, it was a grand event. It was even more important than the Spring Festival. Everyone was immersed in joy.
In the Knife Hut, after greeting and talking with Li Mu’s mother, Li Mu left her room.
Not long after, the cry of the hostess came from Hua Xiangrong’s room, followed by some seductive and strange sounds. Shangguan Wan’er, who wanted to ask them if they wanted to have dinner, blushed when she heard the sounds at the door. She turned around and fled.
The night passed quickly. They had a good night.
In the early morning of the next day, Ming Yue came happily.
“Sister Caicai has sent us a message that some changes have taken place in the Bone Sacred Mountain of the Ghost Star. It has caused strange changes to all the ghost practitioners. They can’t control these things anymore. Young Master, will you go and have a look?” Ming Yue handed a Jade Jue used to send messages to Li Mu.
As soon as Li Mu heard that, he roughly knew what was going on.
It must have something to do with the Cosmic Emperor Deathless’s inheritance.
After reading the message in the Jade Jue, Li Mu came to a realization.
He had to rush to the Ghost Star as soon as possible.
The changes in the silver-mountain-like strange stone under the Bone Sacred Mountain definitely had something to do with the legacy of the Cosmic Emperor Deathless. According to the clues on the dark golden paper, it was basically certain that the legendary Athanasia Immortal Palace was probably under the silver-mountain-like strange stone.
Back then, the Cosmic Emperor Deathless had refined a divine object like the Legend of Deification, which could retain the souls and psyches of kings, and had created the Protoss. The Ghost Star also could let the souls and psyches of the dead survive. The two things had the same effect. Li Mu believed there must be some connection between the two things.
It would be best if he could obtain the legacy of the Cosmic Emperor Deathless before the major forces in the Chaotic World arrived. However, Li Mu knew it would be very difficult. Maybe these people had already landed in the Ziwei Star Zone.
“Where is Qing Feng?” Li Mu asked casually.
Ming Yue picked up a cucumber in the vegetable pot in the yard, chewed it, and said, “Brother Qing Feng has some problems in cultivation these days, and his breath is a little disordered, so he practices Xiantian Skill to consolidate his realm every morning. I guess he is practicing now.”
“He has some problems in his cultivation,” Li Mu was stunned.
The mental cultivation method of Qi Qing Feng had been practicing was the Xiantian Skill Li Mu had taught him. It was said that this Cultivation Method came from the Divine Emperor, Ye Qingyu. It was the most neutral and mild method, and no one had any symptoms of Qi Deviation when cultivating it. How could there be such a thing?
“Let’s go and have a look.”
Li Mu happened to have some things to tell Qing Feng and Ming Yue.
“Okay.” Ming Yue grabbed another cucumber for herself and bounced behind Li Mu.
Moments later, they arrived at Qing Feng’s house.
After checking Qing Feng, Li Mu looked puzzled.
“The internal qi is running, and the meridians are saturated. There is nothing unusual.”
However, Qing Feng didn’t look very well. He looked a little sick as if he had a fever. His face was red, and when he gasped, there was a hoarse voice came from his throat.
“Maybe I’ve been too tired recently.”
Qing Feng himself didn’t care much and explained.
Although he was young, he had an important role in Taibai Empire in Heavenly Land. He had handled many military and national affairs and regional decrees. Everything, big or small, was exhausting his spirit.
“Does it flare up every morning and return to normal afternoon?” Li Mu asked.
Qing Feng nodded.
Li Mu frowned and felt that things might not be so simple.
