The two masters in the Deity Realm were so drunk that they could not fight back at all.
Li Mu walked over to them and started searching for treasures on them.
Soon, he found storage rings, bracelets, armguards, and some other stuff. All of them were sealed with forbidden spells.
“Old men, it’s time for you to show sincerity.”
With a smile, Li Mu took out the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword and waved it around the necks of the two elders of the Rain Clan. The two elders hurriedly told him how to remove the spells.
He tried as he was told, and sure enough, he removed the spells.
Inside the storage devices, there were various magic treasures, protective devices, secret manuals, and elixirs. Obviously, the two elders had illegitimately obtained many things from the disciples of the Rain Clan. They were really rich.
“Thank you so much. It’s very kind of you to have brought so many treasures to me.”
Li Mu was overjoyed.
Very few of these treasures could really catch Li Mu’s attention. The secret manuals of the Rain Clan were mostly about sword skills. For Li Mu, these manuals could be used for reference only and did not provide much guidance for practice. The cultivation methods of the Rain Clan for physical and Qi exercises were in no way comparable to the Zhenwu Boxing and Xiantian Skill. However, they were all treasures of masters in the Deity Realm. Robbing such masters felt awesome, not to mention getting the treasures.
“What other treasures do you have? Take all of them out. I don’t mind taking more,” said Li Mu.
“We have no more treasures.”
“They’re all here.”
Elder Song and the other elder managed to overcome the urge to vomit and pulled a long face.
“Am I being too polite to you?” Li Mu slapped them several times and then continued. “Are you trying to fool me? Take out your real treasures! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being cruel.”
These two cruel “old monsters” even ruthlessly killed the disciples of their own clan. Naturally, Li Mu had no sympathy for them and felt it righteous to do anything to them.
The two elders were helpless.
Today, they failed miserably in a very easy task.
As masters in the Deity Realm, they joined forces to cope with Li Mu. Unfortunately, however, before they could even make a move, they were set up by him and got into a situation where they were like fish on the chopping board and could do nothing but be at his disposal.
In the end, Li Mu got more treasures by threatening the two elders.
Elder Song handed a Scapegoat Doll to him. The doll was an ancient divine artifact engraved with celestial runes that were tens of thousands of years old. After its master refined it and merged it with his body, it could die once for its master.
The other elder of the Rain Clan spat out an Escape Talisman, which was also an antique with a history of tens of thousands of years. It was said that as long as the owner could inject Primordial Qi into the talisman and ignite it, it would teleport the owner through all seals and barriers to anywhere hundreds of miles away in an instant. It was a divine treasure for escaping.
“He-he, that’s more like it.”
Li Mu was quite satisfied.
These two pieces of treasure were life-saving divine artifacts. They might be useful in a dangerous environment like the immortal palace.
Li Mu directly refined the two divine artifacts and found that they were really useful, so he unceremoniously took them as his own.
“Do you have any other treasures? Give them all to me.” He waved his Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword and said fiercely, “Don’t take chances. You’d better be honest with me, or you will be punished.”
“We really have… no more… treasures.” The two elders were on the verge of tears.
They had made painstaking efforts to accumulate wealth. Although they held important and high positions in a Divine Clan of the Celestial Court, they were not the heads of the clan who ruled everything. Today, Li Mu took away all the wealth looted by them, which made their hearts bleed.
“Really?”
Li Mu confirmed for the last time.
The two elders had recovered a little by this time and gradually became sober. They shook their heads repeatedly.
“There are really no more. Mr. Li, we’ve offered you everything we have. Please let go of us. We swear by our Taoist foundation that we will never take revenge on you.”
Li Mu said, “Well, let me ask you another question. Why do the people of the Rain Clan know my whereabouts in the immortal palace?”
Elder Song hesitated for a moment. Then, seeing the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword flashing with cold light in Li Mu’s hand, he hurriedly answered, “In fact, we know the whereabouts of not only you, but most of the people who have entered the immortal palace.”
“What?” Li Mu was greatly surprised to hear that. He asked, “Why is that?”
Elder Song said, “Given our identity and status, we are unable to be informed of the specific reasons and secrets for that. We only know that the lords of the six major Divine Clans can always find out the rough whereabouts of all the people in the immortal palace. They seem to have some secret means to do so.”
“Secret means?”
Li Mu was shocked to hear the news.
“So, it means that most of the people who have entered the immortal palace are under the surveillance of the Celestial Court. The Celestial Court knows the rough whereabouts of these people if it is not well aware of every move made by them.
“What this means is extremely terrifying.
“Even if some people were to come across any treasures or opportunities, they would probably end up being robbed of these treasures or opportunities by the six major Divine Clans of the Celestial Court.
“The six major Divine Clans can even assemble elite forces and eliminate all the powers that go against or pose any threats to the Celestial Court.”
The more Li Mu thought about it, the more he believed that the role played by the Celestial Court in this expedition in the immortal palace was definitely not as grand and righteous as it looked.
“Then, why does the Rain Clan keep an eye on me? What’s your purpose?” He asked.
Elder Song hesitated, but as soon as he saw the fierce look in Li Mu’s eyes, he hurriedly replied, “The head of our clan has ordered us to kill you and Wang Yanyi without mercy.”
“Bastard.”
Li Mu silently cursed.
“These bastards are really vengeful.”
“How do you communicate and transfer messages in the immortal palace?” Li Mu asked again.
Elder Song decided to tell Li Mu everything he knew. He said, “We communicate with one another using Flying Rain Tokens.”
Li Mu searched amongst the items that he had collected. As expected, he found the silver tokens called the “Flying Rain Tokens”. Like the message tokens used in the Ziwei Star Zone, Flying Rain Tokens could enable the users to communicate from a long distance.
A few moments ago, the two elders got drunk very soon, and their Flying Rain Tokens were taken away by Li Mu, so they didn’t have time to send out a message with the Flying Rain Tokens.
“Mr. Li, we’ve told you everything we know and given you all our treasures. Please spare our lives…”
“Please have mercy! We will never seek revenge against you… and we will persuade the head of our clan to give up on chasing you down. I swear!”
The two elders frantically expressed their loyalty with a strong desire to survive.
Li Mu carefully put away the two tokens, thought carefully for a moment, and then said, “Well, I’m going to ask you one last question. I would consider letting you go if you could answer me truthfully and correctly… What is one plus one?”
The two elders in the Deity Realm were taken aback by those words.
“This question is so easy to answer.
“Could he be up to something?”
Elder Song racked his brains and answered in a doubtful tone, “Two?”
Li Mu said, “What? Two? You know that! I’m sorry that you know too much.”
With that, he raised his Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword and slashed down.
Elder Song’s head was cut off.
“What do you think?”
Li Mu glanced at the other elder in the Deity Realm.
The elder felt a chill running down his spine. He stammered, “I… I… I don’t know. You call the shots. I don’t know anything. Please forgive me and do not kill me!”
Li Mu shook his head. “As an elder of the Rain Clan who has lived for thousands of years, you don’t even know what one plus one is! Don’t you feel ashamed to be alive? You’d better die.”
He raised his broadsword and slashed down.
The elder was finished too.
The Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword had the natural power against the practitioners of the six major Divine Clans. When it pierced through any vital part of the body, even masters in the Deity Realm could do nothing but die completely.
Li Mu took some of the two elders’ blood and stored it in a jade bottle.
Then, he took out the bronze war chariot that he got in the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm and threw the stupid Husky, who was still in a coma, and the seven beautiful jade statues onto the war chariot.
He immediately left driving the war chariot pulled by eight galloping bronze horses.
He speculated that since the people of the Rain Clan could track him and know his rough whereabouts, they would probably catch up with him soon. He knew very well that before he could stop the Divine Clans from spying on him, the best way to keep himself safe was to avoid staying in the same place for too long.
He was very disappointed that there was not a single peach in the Immortal Peach Garden.
However, when he looked at the seven jade beauties in the carriage, he had an illusion of unreality. He found it very hard to believe that the seven fairies were actually seven pieces of divine jade instead of living beings.
When he carried them into the carriage just now, he touched their skin, which felt as warm and smooth as that of virgins.
He could hear the sound of hooves.
His bronze chariot couldn’t travel as fast as that of the Cloud Light Saintess, but it was more stable.
He looked at the Seven Divine Jades and struggled to make a decision.
He certainly wanted to get the divine energy contained in them.
Although it was somewhat outrageous to get the divine energy by having sex with the divine jades, he felt he might as well accept that. However, the problem was that the Seven Divine Jades looked just like living fairies, except that they were not breathing and their hearts were not beating. He felt guilty at the thought of having sex with them.
“Should I get the divine energy?
“Or…”
Li Mu hesitated for about an hour.
“Damn it! Those who accomplish great things don’t bother with trifles. Anyway, they’re not living beings, but just inanimate objects. I don’t have to feel guilty.”
He decided to be evil for once.
Actually, to be precise, he had to do it seven times.
“Everything is destined. This is not my fault.”
He made an excuse for himself. Then, he picked up one of the Seven Divine Jades and placed it on the jade bed in the carriage of the war chariot. The divine jade that he picked was the one whose clothes had been torn apart by that disciple of the Rain Clan.
Just when he was about to remove the divine jade’s clothes and take action, he suddenly froze with a look of shock on his face.
“What’s going on?”
Surprisingly, a drop of tear flowed out of the divine jade statue’s eye.
“Is she crying?”
