“Until now, there has been no sign showing that the ancestor of the Heavenly Fox Clan will end the closed-door training and come out. This means that refining the divine blood seems to be more important than anything else. Even if the sky were broken, the ancestors of the six major clans would probably not show up. In that case, since we are going to leave the Imperium Vulpes Divine City anyway, I might as well make a big scene and let the six major clans suffer,” Li Mu was sunk in thought.
Now, he was in no hurry to leave.
His broadsword flashed.
Li Mu’s broadsword-using method was marvelous. Wherever he passed, he slashed at the armored guards and masters of the Heavenly Fox Clan and sent them flying in the air like chopped melons and vegetables.
The Samsara Knife was sharper than any other magic weapon or divine artifact. Even the precious weapons, Taoist instruments, and half-step divine artifacts were directly shattered by the Samsara Knife. In front of the Samsara Knife, all weapons and protective devices were as fragile as paper.
When Bai Jun the God of War fought against the ancestors of the six major clans back then, each move made by Bai Jun the God of War was not very complicated or exquisite, but it contained the power of heaven and earth and the power of destruction. Li Mu’s current cultivation level was not as high as those of the six ancestors, but he had reached a level of returning to the origin and simplicity. Even if he only used the moves in that broadsword manual in conjunction with the Broadsword Intent of the 24 Solar Terms and did not activate the power of his Potential Realm, he would still be unstoppable in the face of those opponents.
He thrust his broadsword to break down the tactical deployments in the mansion of the Heavenly Fox Clan.
He was a master of tactical deployments made up of runes. With the help of his Third Eye, he could see the flaws of tactical deployments at a glance. In less than fifteen minutes, Li Mu broke down almost all the tactical deployments in the mansion.
Bai Bufu and the others were scared out of their wits.
“How could it be possible? Who on earth is this person?” Bai Bufu roared in pain, his whole body burning with flames.
One of the executives finally recognized the person and said, “It’s Li Yidao… Li Mu, the descendant of sinners.”
“What?”
“Is he still alive?”
“Our ancestor said that he was already dead. How could our ancestor make a mistake? How could he still be alive?”
“Could it be that… he is an evil ghost coming from hell to seek vengeance?”
The chief guards, executives, and elders around Bai Bufu were all greatly shocked.
Li Mu took action so fast that the news about the fight in the direction of the Heavenly Fox Temple had not spread to the mansion of the Heavenly Fox Clan yet. Those people of the Heavenly Fox Clan could not understand why a person who had died would show up in the mansion like a ghost and have so formidable and invincible power.
“Hurry up and inform the Pontifex Vulpes.”
“Go and find the chief of our clan for help.”
Panicky voices rang out across the mansion of the Heavenly Fox Clan.
Holding the broadsword in his hand, Li Mu easily broke through the encirclement of the armored guards of the Heavenly Fox Clan and slowly approached Bai Bufu.
“Hurry Up! Run!” Bai Bufu was scared. He had completely lost the will to fight.
The Heavenly Fox Clan had been secretly cultivating him for so many years. He had secretly carried out some risky missions, fought many fierce battles, hunted the Dark Yellow Army down, took charge of some extremely dangerous assassination tasks, and seen all kinds of terrifying scenes… It would be fair to say that, given his willpower and experience, he could not be described as a flower seedling in a greenhouse.
However, he had never seen such a one-sided slaughter.
In front of Li Mu’s broadsword, the most loyal and bravest armored guards and the powerful executives and elders of the Heavenly Fox Clan fell down one after another like wheat stalks cut off by a sickle… Such a scene crushed Bai Bufu’s greatest pride, and Li Mu’s instant victory and the flames tortured him and crushed his self-proclaimed tenacious fighting spirit.
Bai Bufu had never thought that he would break down so quickly and thoroughly.
Li Mu did not resort to any schemes or plots, nor did he use any magical weapons. He overwhelmingly defeated Bai Bufu and destroyed the mansion of the Heavenly Fox Clan in the simplest and most direct way.
This simple and direct way was more shocking than any other means.
Bai Bufu had never imagined that the mansion of the Heavenly Fox Clan, which was known as one of the six major clans in the Ziwei Star Zone, would be destroyed to such an extent.
“Damn it. If the Pontifex Vulpes didn’t transfer half of the masters to the Heavenly Fox Temple to ambush the Lady of the Clouds, the mansion of the Heavenly Fox Clan would never allow a sinners’ descendant like Li Mu to be so arrogant.” A chief guard roared as he ran away.
Before his voice faded away…
With a flash of broadsword light, his body was cut in half. His upper body was still flying forward, and his lower body started to the ground.
“Ah…” Bai Bufu screamed in horror.
At the same time, Li Mu had already broken through the encirclement and appeared in front of them.
His broadsword flashed.
The executives and elders were cut into irregular pieces, which turned into snow and wind drifting in the void.
It was a beautiful and strange way of dying.
“No, no. Please don’t kill me…” Bai Bufu cried out in horror and begged for mercy. His body and soul were burning with blazing flames, but he was so frightened that he even forgot the pain. He said, “You must have come here to take revenge for Daji. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have made things difficult for Daji.”
There was not a trace of mercy in Li Mu’s eyes.
He raised his hand and slashed with his broadsword.
Bai Bufu’s head was chopped off and sent flying in the air.
“Since you know you were wrong, you should apologize with your life.”
Li Mu showed no mercy at all.
Had it not for Li Mu’s timely arrival, something terrible would probably have happened to Daji.
For someone like Bai Bufu, it was already kind for Li Mu not to grind his bones and scatter his ashes.
In the end, Li Mu killed nearly half of the masters, executives, and armored guards in the mansion of the Heavenly Fox Clan and then before left with Daji.
Daji was really tired.
She was very tired not only because of the stress these days, but also because of the physical exhaustion caused by the activation of her bloodline. She had been sleeping soundly and peacefully in Li Mu’s arms as if she would be safe as long as she lay in Li Mu’s arms, even if the sky caved in.
Holding Daji in his arms, Li Mu headed for the village of the Green Fox Tribe, which was like a paradise.
He planned to go there to look for the Divine-winged Fox.
He could not confirm the whereabouts of Bi Yan. At the thought that she might have been killed, he felt uneasy. Under such circumstances, he thought of the Divine-winged Fox, who was a strange man.
No matter what, the Divine-winged Fox was Bi Yan’s father and actually cared about Bi Yan. Li Mu decided to leave together with the Divine-winged Fox if he had to leave the city. This was the last thing he could do for Bi Yan. After all, those hidden powers had killed Bi Yan, and they would probably not let the Divine-winged Fox go.
This was his last plan to save someone.
“The most dangerous place is indeed the safest place. You’re really hiding here.”
Wei Sinian, the future leader of the Demonic Snake Abyss, together with the armored soldiers of the Demonic Snake tribe, had encircled the entire village. The smell of blood permeated the air. The houses were set on fire, and the raging fire engulfed the paradise-like village. The black armored soldiers, like tides, surrounded a small yard with bamboo fence on all sides.
Over ten villagers, the last survivors in the village, were covered with wounds and cuts. They gathered around the Divine-winged Fox and looked at Wei Sinian and the others with their eyes full of hatred.
Wei Sinian didn’t care about the look in their eyes at all. He said indifferently, “I know that Bi Yan, the Green Fox God, is hiding here. Tell me where she is. Otherwise, nothing in the Green Fox Village will survive today.”
