1209, Assassination in the Night

"If it's okay, can't you go with Mu Gongzi?"

Xia Jing said with a smile.

Li Mu turned around and was noncommittal.

"I remember, Mu Gongzi said that if the Thirteenth Prince assassinated Ouyang Yi again, his life would be gone, hehe, until now, Mu Gongzi has not fulfilled his promise. Xia Jing followed behind Li Mu and staggered along.

"It's just a bluff, you don't have to take it seriously. ”

Li Mu said lightly.

When Xia Jing heard this, she couldn't help but be stunned.

Li Mu gave him the impression that he was the type of mysterious powerhouse with outstanding strength, superb means, and who would practice his words, even if it was at the prince's banquet today.

Powerful.

Terrible.

Calm and unfathomable.

This is Kimaki.

But the answer Li Mu just said made Xia Jing not expect it at all.

Is it so perfunctory?

The four words 'casually bluffing' have a ridiculous power, which made Li Mu's image in Xia Jing's mind fall from the clouds high above all of a sudden, but this did not disappoint her, but she was more interested in Li Mu.

Childe laughed. Xia Jing's eyes narrowed, innocent like a little girl next door, and her eyes were like fresh crescent moons.

Li Mu was about to say something more.

Suddenly, I heard a loud cry from the front.

"Alas, what iniquity. ”

"This Wei Rulong of the Eastern Xuanxian Sect is too arrogant, right?"

"What happened?"

"It's just arrogant, insulted several female fairies in Chunhua Building, and killed the boss of Chunhua Building...... This is already the tenth person he has killed in just a few days since he came to the Imperial City. ”

"What is the Cliff of the Emperor?"

"It's a pity that in order to ascend the throne as soon as possible and win the recognition of these big sects, the new prince has always swallowed his anger and indulged too much with these envoys of foreign forces. ”

Indignant curses rang out.

Soon, I saw a group of cultivators in green robes rushing across the street.

The first young man, who looked to be in his twenties, cultivated as ordinary, looked like he had been hollowed out by wine, his inner yuan was vain, his hair was scattered, and he laughed and said as if no one was on the crowded street: "Haha, yes, this woman from Huangji Cliff also has a unique flavor, hahaha." ”

A group of immortals from the Dongxuan Immortal Gate roared past.

One of them, seeing Li Mu staring at them, turned his head and scolded: "What are you looking for? ”

Li Mu was silent.

The gang didn't stop and disappeared at the end of the street.

At that moment just now, Li Mu felt that the [Bliss Fairy] Xia Jing beside him hid his aura and covered his face at the right time when he was meeting the people of the Dongxuan Immortal Sect.

The corners of Li Mu's mouth floated with a grim smile.

Whether it is in the mortal world or the fairy world, there are such goods.

Still, it was an opportunity.

In his heart, he gradually had some ideas.

Listening to Xia Jing on the side, he smiled and said, "That day, Mu Gongzi's life-saving grace has not been repaid, and today the slave family prepared a few glasses of thin wine, I don't know if Mu Gongzi can appreciate his face?"

Li Mu stood still.

Turn around.

Looking at Xia Jing, he said lightly in a very ordinary tone: "Saving you that day is like seeing stray cats and dogs falling into the quagmire, pulling them casually, there is no special meaning, I don't make any comments on your style of doing things, but ......"

Speaking of this, Li Mu said word by word, very sincerely: "Curiosity kills the cat, I don't have any interest in you, so you'd better stay away from me." ”

The voice did not fall.

Li Mu's figure disappeared directly in place.

The smile on Xia Jing's face narrowed slightly, stayed for a few breaths, and then it was like 'the wind blowing a pool of spring water', a more smug and bright smile rippled on this almost flawless face.

"I'm really getting more and more interested. ”

She stood on the street smiling.

The pedestrians who came and went around, whether it was a man or a woman, were all looking at this woman who was blooming like a fire rose with amazing eyes.

No matter where she goes, Xia Jing can easily be the center of attention.

......

An hour later, the reward of the new prince was sent to the Retreat.

Li Mu accepted it without any politeness.

Immortal armor, fairy sword or something, so-so, no more than the second grade.

A thousand catties of immortal crystals, but it is enough.

The immortal crystals obtained by Li Mu after killing the old golden immortals, as well as the immortal crystals bequeathed by Lu Haoran of the Canghai Sect, were all sold out when they fused the [Fengming Divine Sword] and the [Dark Golden Immortal Sword], and this thousand golden immortal crystals could probably support it for a while.

"Keep cultivating. ”

Li Mu began his retreat.

With Immortal Crystal, Li Mu's cultivation speed became very fast.

The last time he forcibly fused the sword, the majestic immortal path energy made the energy in Li Mu's body accumulate to the extreme, and his body was once like a balloon that had been stretched to the limit, and it could hold more energy.

Li Mu's cultivation speed was almost visible to the naked eye.

Another month.

Li Mu actually rushed straight to the peak of the immortal.

This entry can be said to be unprecedented.

Those peerless geniuses in the immortal realm, even if they were born in the top forces and crossed a big realm, it would take three or five years, and the more difficult it would be, and Li Mu would only take a few months to go from flying immortals to the peak of immortals.

"I don't know why, when I returned to the fairy world, there was an illusion that the tiger entered the deep mountains and the fish returned to the sea. ”

With the six-grade immortal weapon in the [Zhu Immortal] in hand, Li Mu can now be said to be really fighting head-on, and he can also kill the Golden Immortal.

Continue to cultivate.

A month later.

The time is ripe.

The old emperor of Huangji Cliff abdicated.

Three decrees were issued to pass the throne to the new crown prince.

The new crown prince resigned three times, and finally 'reluctantly' accepted it and was willing to ascend the throne as emperor.

The whole country celebrates.

The day of his accession to the throne was undoubtedly the most beautiful and glorious day for the Eight Princes in the past.

He sat high on the throne, looking down on the faces of awe and obedience below, and his life reached the peak of his climax at this moment.

In addition to the courtiers in the Imperial Cliff court, there were also many other envoys of forces, as well as powerful people with heads and faces from all sides, all of whom were invited to watch the ceremony.

Among them, there are envoys sent by the Donghuang Divine Dynasty, one of the three major forces of Yuechuan Mansion.

In addition, the Dongxuan Immortal Sect that Li Mu had in mind and the envoys of the two great immortal Dao forces of the One Sword Sect were also listed.

Li Mu clearly remembered the faces of the envoys of these two major sects in his heart.

"Fengtian carrier, the new emperor summoned ......"

Next to him, the eunuch loudly announced the decree and rewarded the meritorious heroes.

All the meritorious heroes have been rewarded.

Li Mu is also among them.

This time, he was directly promoted to the commander of the palace guards, plus the nine gates of the military inspection, the two positions in the body, the rank has not changed, but the authority is greater, directly control the defense and security of the palace, and also have the right to inspect the nine gates of the imperial city at any time.

As the first celebrity in the former Prince's Mansion, he can now be said to be the first celebrity in the dynasty.

The enthronement ceremony was grand and prominent.

The ambition and will of the new emperor were carried out very thoroughly.

At this time, the eldest prince, the thirteenth prince and others had been deprived of all military powers, dispersed the guests, and were forced to attend the ceremony to watch the new emperor's enthronement ceremony in person.

It's a humiliation.

It's also a kind of show-off.

Li Mu was dressed in immortal armor and hung a long sword at his waist, standing on the side of the main hall.

From other people's perspectives, Li Mu is the most loyal lackey of the new emperor.

One by one, they looked at Li Mu with awe in their eyes.

The entire enthronement ceremony went smoothly and peacefully, without the expected disruption or twists and turns.

The new emperor's control of the government is beyond many people's imagination.

After the ceremony, Li Mu was on duty.

Li Mu did not attend the various banquets and celebrations that followed, but dutifully took the guards to inspect all parts of the palace and make sure that they were safe and sound, and then returned to the temporary official residence set up in the palace to rest.

Gradually, the night was getting late.

The entire Imperial City was still immersed in a celebratory atmosphere.

At midnight, an angry roar came from the VIP inn area.

"Dead people, someone was killed......"

Then, the whole VIP inn was in chaos.

The news reached the palace as soon as possible.

The new emperor, who had just rested, was directly alarmed.

"What happened, how dare you come and alarm me in the middle of the night?"

The new emperor said unhappily.

"Your Majesty, the envoy of the Dongxuan Immortal Gate was assassinated, the murderer is unknown......" The eunuch Li Sun replied tremblingly.

"What?"

The new emperor, who was still wearing a nightgown, was so shocked that his scalp was numb, he stood up suddenly, rushed out of the tent barefoot, and shouted: "Summons Xiao Xiao to me." ”

Xiao Xiao is the left Zhongcheng of the new dynasty, responsible for receiving the envoys of the major forces.

Unexpectedly, there was such a big mess.

Soon, Xiao Xiao entered the palace to see the driver.

"Say, what the hell is going on?"

The tone of the new emperor was not very good.

Xiao Xiao knelt on the ground, frightened in his heart, but on the surface, he maintained his composure and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has sent someone to investigate, this matter should have nothing to do with my Emperor's Extreme Cliff, the envoy of the Dongxuan Immortal Gate, who had a foreign vendetta, was hunted down and killed." ”

A hint of relief appeared on the new emperor's face.

Killed by foreign vendettas?

This should be considered a great blessing in the midst of misfortune.

"But the envoy was killed in the imperial city, and we must also give an explanation to the Eastern Xuanxian Gate, otherwise, with their domineering style, I am afraid that there will be another incident. "The New Imperial Road.

Xiao Xiao said: "Your Majesty rest assured, the minister will handle it properly." ”

The new emperor nodded and said: "Well, you have followed me for many years, and you can be regarded as having worked hard and made great contributions, and I have borne a lot of criticism, and I have directly promoted you to a second-grade master, I trust you, but you also need to do a few more beautiful things, show your talents to other more courtiers, in order to serve the public, and I can give you more." ”

Xiao Xiao looked grateful, and said: "The grace of my emperor, it is difficult to repay the minister's broken bones." ”

But in his heart, there was a trace of coolness.
