Chapter 789 - One Slash, One Kill

Chapter 789 One Slash, One Kill

Only those who truly knew Li Mu would understand what he meant when he said “write down the name”. Even the big shots in Star River would never want to be targeted by Li Mu.

However, it was clear that Saint Changchu’s gang was totally ignorant of this fact.

“Li Mu, how dare you kill people? I, Meng Wanxiang, will compete with you…”

Pu!

With a flash of broadsword light, Meng Wanxiang was hacked to death by Li Mu.

The others felt that Li Mu’s simple and ordinary moves were not even fast.

But it was weird that faced with Li Mu’s simple move, Meng Wanxiang was hacked to death as well-the same as Li Meng who didn’t have time to dodge.

In the blink of an eye, two people were killed.

Saint Changchun had an embarrassed look on his face.

“Li Mu, why so serious. We are all Chinese. It’s just a friendly competition, but you are so cruel. Well, the Cultivation Association…”

Hardly had he finished speaking when a melodious ring suddenly sounded from Saint Changchun.

It was the communicator.

He frowned, picked it up instantly, and answered, “Yes. Vice President. Don’t worry. Everything is under control…” He subconsciously smiled as he tried to say something.

An exasperated voice could be heard from the other end of the communicator. “I have just received the news that the members of the Vatican, Snow Wolf Lake, Feral Tiger Gang, Blood Race Prince, and Demon Coalition are all dead. All of them had been killed by Li Mu. Retreat right now and don’t come into direct contact with Li Mu…”

Clatter.

His trembling hands dropped the communicator even before the Vice President finished his words.

“What, all those top experts who had been sent to assault Li Mu were dead?”

The expressions of the cultivators behind instantly became complex and upset, as if their parents had just died.

Although the voice in the communicator was soft, it could be heard clearly by all the people present. As cultivators, their hearing was far superior to that of ordinary people.

This piece of news was followed by a deathly silence.

Saint Changchu shivered as if a cold wind had blown over him.

Looking at Li Mu, he squeezed out an awkward smile and said, “Li Mu… Consultant Li, maybe there’s been some misunderstandings…”

Li Mu waved his hand and said, “I don’t think so. Don’t you want to compete with me? Come on. Let’s compete for several bouts.”

“No, no, I…” Saint Changchun’s smile was uglier than a crying face. He said, “How could I be your rival? I quit and you win.”

With a broadsword in his hand, Li Mu said, “It seems that you’re looking down on me.”

Saint Changchu was cursing inwardly. But as he realized that he was in a negative situation, his face turned pale immediately. At last, he dropped to his knees directly and implored, “Li Mu, I was wrong. I…”

Li Mu walked over and kicked him over squarely.

“B*stard, you know your mistake now but why didn’t you realize it earlier when you were pretending to be strong and obstructing others just now? I’m sorry I can’t accept your apology. You are a big shame to the cultivation world of Hero Country.”

With a flash of the broadsword, Li Mu hacked Saint Changchu to the ground mercilessly.

Blood flowed like a long stream.

Seeing this scene, the other cultivators screamed and turned around to flee.

Li Mu strode forward to catch up with them.

Li Mu’s cultivation was so strong that his one-step was equivalent to the others’ one hundred steps. Although he moved later, he caught up with them and cut them down one by one, as easily as cutting vegetables. In the blink of an eye, all of Saint Changchu’s accomplices had been mowed down.

The others were stunned, including the silly dog Husky.

“Wasn’t that much too brutal?”

The Husky, in particular; its hind legs could not stop trembling.

It was the first time that it had seen Li Mu killing people in such a brutal way. He could have turned them into ashes in a flash, but he insisted on hacking them to death. The sound of blades slashing through flesh and bones was shocking and horrific.

“Should I behave better in the future?”

Husky thought, “Li Mu is a little brutal after his return to Earth. What if he gets angry and chops me up like this?”

Both Su Cuo and Fan Zu’ang wanted to stop Li Mu, but after thinking for a while, they still didn’t open their mouths.

The evil Saint Changchu and his companions deserved to die. More importantly, they all knew Li Mu relatively well. Therefore, it was clear that although there was a smile on his face just now, in fact, he was boiling with rage.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have killed his enemies by such cruel means.

After the carnage, he threw the long knife aside casually, wiped his hands with a handkerchief before walking back.

Then, a voice came from the communicator.

“Changchun? What are you doing? Answer me now. Don’t provoke Li Mu directly. Retreat first…”

Li Mu squatted down to pick up the communicator, and said, “Hello.”

The male voice on the communicator stopped abruptly, then asked slowly, “You’re not Saint Changchu. Who’s that?”

“I’m Li Mu, the one that you don’t want to fight against face to face.”

“You… where’s Saint Changchu and the others?”

“What do you think?”

The communicator was disconnected instantly.

“He’s so rude to hang up so abruptly.”

Li Mu stood up and looked at the technological product in his hand.

It was different from the traditional ones on Earth, without any brand symbols. It could only support phone calls, the same function as cellular phones in the late 1980s. It was more clumsy than any Apple or Huawei product.

However, Li Mu didn’t underestimate this communicator at all.

Because Saint Changchu could certainly afford Apple or Huawei products.

Casually flipping the communicator cover, he walked up to Su Cuo, and asked, “You just said that they were members of the cultivators’ association? What is it? An official organ, or an emerging gang?”

Su Cuo gave a brief introduction, “In recent years, there’s been an increasing number of domestic cultivators, especially some forces who were out of reach before gradually emerging after the splitting of famous mountains and rivers. Particularly among famous mountains, the space expanded deriving some small folding spaces, similar to worldlets. During their official exploration, the military was surprised to find ancient people living and reproducing inside. They possess enormous powers far beyond that of the average person on Earth… Since they entered the secular world, these people had negotiated with some Wulin members and formed an alliance, which was the predecessor of the Cultivators’ Association.”

She briefly explained what had happened.

Fan Zu’ang added, “In the past years, Hero Martial Arts Alliance has been maintaining the law and order for the domestic cultivation world arduously, but with the passing of time, in order to prevent a chaotic domestic cultivation world, Chief Lu has been restraining himself time and again, which gave the cultivation association space to grow gradually. Now, it has become the number one force in the country.”

Hearing his words, Li Mu was quite surprised.

He thought that with the Cultivation Methods he left behind, Lu Xun, Xiao Dong, Luo Xuanxin, Qiu Shuiming and the other elites, who had cultivated in Mount Shu, should have been able to defend against outside evil forces completely, but it was unexpected that…

It seemed that he had overlooked some secrets on Earth.

It was incredible that ancient people were actually living in those famous mountains and rivers.

“Did they belong to an ancient cultivation sect?”

Li Mu was interested in that strange space.

“By the way, what’s the special function of this?” He waved the communicator in his hand and said, “It seems that the functions of this device and mobile phones are alike.”

Su Cuo said, “Its practical function may be less than that of a phone, but it is better than all the mobile phones due to its global communication.”

Surprised at her words, Li Mu asked, “It is not affected by the signal range?”

Folded space faults appeared, as the sky and the earth split. Territories expanded profoundly, having cut off all the signals towers that were built all over the earth as well as the network, etc… Phones were available only on a small scale. It was impossible to be connected in the country, let alone the world.

Fan Zu’ang said, “This was specially made by the military.”

Li Mu said, “That’s awesome. Save one for me.” He looked at the stupid Husky and added, “Perhaps two.”

“Send these corpses to the Cultivators’ Association and give them three days to come up with an explanation. Otherwise, I don’t mind going to their association.”

Li Mu came to Earth, even though he knew that the ancestors and armies of six major races were bound to attack him. Hatred of these short-sighted and internecine cultivators left him with no mercy for them.

With all his work done, Li Mu, Lu Xun, and the others came to the conference room in the military camp.

After listening to Su Cuo and the others, Li Mu had gained some insight into the situation on earth. For example, the major countries started to manage their own affairs, instead of fighting for land and energy, which was their routine in the past.

The Earth had witnessed profound changes. Changes in the seas had caught all countries off guard, let alone that of the land.

Neither ships nor planes could cross these wider and boundless seas, not to mention aircraft carriers of the White Center Continent. The current seas had become paradises for monsters. It was even said that some intelligent creatures were living in the sea.

Human beings’ control over the Earth was limited to the land once again.

However, with some folding spaces appearing and the dissipation of space fog, the land would become larger and odder. The distance between cities as well as regions was increasingly getting out of control.

In short, it seemed that the Earth had become ‘larger’.

Countries couldn’t fully define the new territories or regions emerging in their own country. How could they fight with each other?

Even if they wanted to grab the resources, it was impossible owing to the far distance.

But some transit stations such as DunHuang were connected to the other parts of the world. People could reach destinations in an instant through these space channels. Only in this way could it prevent human beings from complete isolation.

However, transit stations and space tunnels were extremely rare. Furthermore, there was a limitation on the number of people allowed to pass through at a time.

After listening for a while in the conference room, Li Mu lost interest.

He left the meeting early.

After a while, the beautiful military officer Su Cuo quickly came out of the conference room and said anxiously, “Li Mu, the latest news said that Luo Xuanxin was in danger. On the way here to support us, she was seriously injured in a sneak attack by a Cultivators’ Association elite and was taken away…”
