Chapter 166 Request
After Xu Mu showed his strength many times, as he expected, everyone in the team was also faintly in awe of him, and things like the unscrupulous jokes a few days ago would no longer happen.
Although Xu Mu had expected this, he still couldn't help but smile bitterly, his strength, in the eyes of Li Yaoyang and others, was too high and unattainable...
This kind of change made Xu Mu a little unnatural, but fortunately, there was not much left to go, and when it was close to evening, the outline of a huge city loomed in the field of vision of Xu Mu and others.
Looking at the city that could already be seen, Li Yaoyang and the others were also relieved, seeing their reflections, Xu Mu also understood that this city should be the so-called Eternal Night City...
With a casual glance, Xu Mu took two steps back, just stopping beside Li Yaoyang, and when he saw him coming, Li Yaoyang hurriedly wanted to hold his fist, but he felt that he was resisted by a soft force, and then a helpless voice came into his ears: "Brother Li, don't be so polite, your life is still saved by you, don't call me Mr. anymore, it's still the same as before."
"Xu Muxian... Brother is polite, with your strength, even if we don't save you, I'm afraid you will be safe." Li Yaoyang hesitated for a moment and said with a smile, but there was still an unconcealable awe between his words.
Xu Mu was helpless, flicked his fingers, and a pill fell into Li Yaoyang's hand without a trace, and said in a low and casual voice: "Put away the pill, it can help you improve the success rate of your Dao comprehension, which is conducive to your breakthrough in the future."
Hearing this, Li Yaoyang's body trembled violently, and a look of excitement appeared in his eyes, he had been stuck in the Nine Heavens of the Purple Mansion for many years, but he had not broken through for a long time, he knew that some high-grade pills had the miraculous effect of helping people break through, but that kind of pills were all extremely expensive things, with his financial resources, how could he afford it.
"Brother Xu Mu... This gift is too heavy..."Because of his excitement, Li Yaoyang's eyes turned a little red, and he said in a trembling voice.
"Is my life important?" Xu Mu smiled and joked.
"Brother Xu Mu, you... Are you leaving?" Carefully put away the pill, Li Yaoyang said suddenly.
Xu Mu was silent for a moment, a little unsure of how to answer.
"Hehe, Brother Xu Mu, there's nothing bad to say, you don't have any friendship with the Li family, but along the way, you saved us twice, even if you want to return the favor, it's already enough, the Chen family is powerful, if you are involved, it's not very good..." Seeing this, Li Yaoyang smiled and said.
Xu Mu was silent.
Da! Da!
While Xu Mu and Li Yaoyang were talking, at the city gate in the distance, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves, and they quickly rushed in the direction where they were.
Seeing this movement, Han Chong and the others, who were already frightened birds, hurriedly clenched the weapons in their hands, but after a while, someone suddenly had sharp eyes and said in surprise, "It's our people."
The sound of horses' hooves quickly paused in front of the convoy, and then a figure jumped off the horse, this person looked to be only twenty-three or fourteen years old, dressed in a strong suit, looking energetic, and his face was also a little handsome, with a long body, looking quite imposing, but when Li Yaoyang and the others saw him, their brows were slightly wrinkled.
"Yaoguang, are you alright?" When the man saw Li Yaoguang, surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he walked up quickly, saying with concern.
"I'm fine." Li Yaoguang replied casually, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Xu Mu who was slowly retreating out of the corner of his eye, and hurriedly turned around and said loudly, "Stop!"
Seeing Li Yaoguang coming over, Xu Mu had to stop and spread his hands helplessly at Li Yaoyang.
Li Yaoguang stared at Xu Mu beautifully, and after a while, she seemed to think of something, her eyes darkened slightly, and she said softly: "It's me who is willful, if Mr. wants to leave, please do it, thank you for taking care of me all the way, I hope to see you again in the future."
As soon as these words came out, Xu Mu was a little embarrassed, and he didn't go, and he didn't go.
"Sister Yaoguang, who is this one? It seems that the face is tight, huh? It's also our Li family's house slave?" Side
The handsome man, when he saw Li Yaoguang, who was usually indifferent, was so daughterly in front of the young man who looked quite ordinary, a touch of jealousy naturally welled up in his heart, and he asked with a casual smile at the moment, and in that words, there was a disdain for the identity of this kind of slave.
"Li Mo, be more respectful to my guests, he is not a guard slave, but an offering I invited for the Li family, next time if I talk nonsense, don't blame me for turning my face!" Li Yaoguang turned around suddenly, her pretty face turned into indifference as if her face had changed, and she reprimanded coldly.
Being so coldly reprimanded by Li Yaoguang, Han Li Mo's face was also blue and white, and then he couldn't help but sneer: "Offering? Li Yaoguang, I'm afraid you're mistaken, right? According to the rules of the clan, the first condition for my Li family to worship is that it needs the strength of the Nine Heavens of the Purple Mansion, and in the entire Li family, I am afraid that only Brother Yaoyang has this ability, although you are the daughter of the head of the family, you can't treat the clan rules like this, right?"
Hearing this, Li Yaoguang's originally indifferent cheeks suddenly showed a touching smile, and with a wave of his jade hand, a guard suddenly pressed the two of them off the vehicle and threw them in front of Li Mo.
"He can capture Chen Hong and Chen Shui, the two elders of the Lin family, you say, is he qualified?"
Looking at the two pale old men lying on the ground, who didn't know whether they were alive or dead, Han Lin was also stunned, and after he recognized these two people, a look of shock suddenly flashed on his face, and he lost his voice: "Chen Hong? Chen Shui? How did they end up in your hands?"
"They want to stop me and arrest me." Li Yaoguang said lightly.
"This... Did he do it?" Li Mo's face trembled, he looked at Xu Mu in disbelief, and said with extreme suspicion, as members of the Li family, they were naturally very familiar with the two elders of the Chen family, so they also knew that these two old guys were the real Nine Heavens of the Purple Mansion, and with the two of them joining forces, their combat power was enough to match the peak of the Purple Mansion, could it be that the two of them were planted in the hands of this young man who looked a little younger than him?
"So do you think there are other people in our group who can do this? Not only that, but Mr. Xu Mu is also a genuine sixth-order alchemist." Li Yaoguang didn't seem to be a little interested in this Li Mo, so he didn't have any politeness when he spoke.
"Alas, I'll stay and take a look, but don't expect too much from me..." Xu Mu was also extremely unhappy with Li Mo, so he sighed and said.
"Really?"
Hearing this, Li Yaoguang's heartbreakingly dim eyes suddenly burst out with a moving look and said in surprise.
However, at this time, Li Mo's complexion was like a bitter gourd, pure natural, pollution-free, and naturally green.
"Hehe, I was reckless before..." Li Mo smiled unnaturally at Xu Mu, and then quickly turned his gaze to Li Yaoguang, and said, "Sister Yaoguang, let's go, go back to the family first, the head of the family is worried about you."
Li Yaoguang nodded slightly, ordered someone to throw the unconscious Chen Hong and the others back to the carriage, and then turned his head to Xu Mu and whispered, "Mr. Xu Mu, let's go, I'll introduce you to the people in the clan."
Hearing this, Xu Mu's brows furrowed slightly, he didn't want to get too involved in the affairs of his family, but after seeing the trace of pleading in Li Yaoguang's eyes, he had to sigh, waved his hand, and said, "Lead the way."
Seeing Xu Mu nodding, Li Yao couldn't help but smile on her face again, her indifference seemed to have collapsed in front of the former, and Li Mo on the side was jealous, for so many years, he had never seen this cousin, who was famous for his indifference, treat a man like this, and the most alarming thing for him was that this man's age was about the same as her.
However, after learning about Xu Mu's strength, he didn't dare to show these feelings on his face, so he could only pull up a reluctant smile, then turn around, and lead the way in front with a stomach full of resentment.
In this Eternal Night City, the Li family does have a lot of strength and prestige, which can be seen from the fact that when they entered the city, they were able to even skip the search level.
The convoy slowly entered the city, and the noisy boiling sound suddenly rushed towards him, making Xu Mu, who had been in the desert for several days, live for a while
However, it was a little difficult to get used to.
The scale of Eternal Night City is no smaller than any city Xiao Yan has seen before, and it can even compete with half of Xia Wangchao, and perhaps because of proper planning, the entire city gives people a sense of grandeur, and the spacious streets are full of people, revealing the city's great popularity.
The Li family, located in the south of the Eternal Night City, and on the other hand, the Chen family, which occupies the north, are like the two masters of the city, and the two sides divide the city into two halves...
Of course, there are also some other small forces in the city, but compared with the Li and Chen families, they are a little insignificant, and they can only survive in the cracks, as if floating, looking up at the two behemoths in the city.
Of course, in recent years, the power of the Chen family has become stronger and stronger, while the Li family is going downhill, and it is precisely because of this that the Chen family is pressing step by step, wanting to coerce the Li family to marry Li Yaoguang to the Chen family.
This is also one of the reasons why Li Yaoguang and others took a fancy to Xu Mu's strength and invited him to be an offering, because the two families met in this battle for Xuanyu Fruit, and each family had three contestants.
If the Chen family wins in the end, Li Yaoguang will marry Chen Yan, and the Li family will win, and many of the spoils in the battle for Xuanyuguo will belong to the Li family.
Xu Mu's appearance is an opportunity for the Li family, a chance to turn over, Li Yaoguang tried his best to win Xu Mu because he wanted him to replace the Li family in the competition, Xu Mu's strength far exceeds anyone in the Li family, if he can beat Chen Yan, it is the best, if he is unable to return to the sky, then she, Li Yaoguang can only accept fate.
