Chapter 160: Real And Fake Li Mu
He was rich.
Five humans.
He wasn’t expecting to make such a great discovery here.
The orc was very excited.
Slap!
Just as his claws reached out to grab the humans, a huge force suddenly smacked his claws away.
The orc turned around and yelled, “Who’s there? Who’s trying to snatch them from me? I was here first!.”
But there was no one else around him. There was nothing but emptiness.
Was he hallucinating?
Or was someone hiding from him?
The orc tentatively stretched out his claw again.
Nothing happened!
He must have been imagining things just now.
He reached out his claw again.
The girls’ were terrified! Their eyes were wide open with fear and they were on the verge of screaming for their lives.
Whoosh!
Sword light flashed and the claw that was just about to touch Liu Xiu tumbled to the ground.
The orc stepped forward.
It barely registered in his mind. He didn’t even realize that his claw did not make any contact and instead, there was just a numbness in his arm.
It was only upon closer inspection did he realize that his two front claws were gone.
He was shocked!
The master was right beside him.
He turned around and saw Li Mu standing there, just looking at him.
The other four girls were still curled up in fright.
It was clear who the master was.
“You’re not…”
“You said that you’ll be rich whether or not Li Mu is among us. Is this Li Mu very valuable?”
If it wasn’t because he wanted to clear his doubts, Li Mu would have already hit him with the sword.
“Who are you? What are you doing here…”
“Since you’re not going to tell me, I’ll just go and find out myself!”
Li Mu drew his sword.
“No, I’ll talk!”
Whoosh!
The orc was cut to pieces.
Li Mu withdrew his sword and stared off into the distance.
What was going on?
Was there someone else named Li Mu in the Land of Demon Slayers?
After hiding the four girls somewhere safe, Li Mu set out to explore further.
He used his divine consciousness to scan the area and found that every single person in the Land of Demon Slayers was searching for him
“Sigh! This is all because of the stone tablet.”
He had ended up in third place, and that had put a target on his back.
Furthermore, the names in the first and second places had been dead for many years.
They had all been heroes in their era.
Even the names on fourth and fifth place had been terrifying figures in their era.
And now, he was at the same level as them.
Wasn’t it crazy?
The craziest thing was that he was the only person from this era, while the rest were all past masters.
And yet, no one knew anything about him.
Because of his ranking, everyone was looking for him, and for different reasons too. Some people wanted to seize whatever treasures he had obtained from the tower, while others wanted to make use of him for their own gain.
Even the masters from outside Fenglan rushed over to find him.
“What should I do?”
Because of him every single human in the Land of Demon Slayers was in danger. If anything happened to them, then how could he live with the guilt?
All the masters would be looking for him!
No!
Why should he be afraid of the masters who were looking for him?
If he couldn’t defeat them, he would just escape!
How many masters were capable of defeating him now?
After reassuring himself, Li Mu played an intricate and dangerous game of hide-and-seek in the Land of Demon Slayers.
A few days later, the Land of Demon Slayers started to become smaller.
All the living creatures inside started leaving. One by one they were kicked out of the land.
At the same time, the orc clans started to feel anxious.
The Land of Demon Slayers were forcing out all the living creatures at random time and places.
Because of the shrinking land, everyone was forced to congregate in a small area. Within three or four days, everyone still in the Land of Demon Slayers were trapped within a thousand miles radius of one another.
For any capable warrior, it was very easy to escape.
According to legend, when Yang Mietian was hiding in the Demon Tower, he had relied on this similar incident to disappear from the mainland for a very long time.
Many warriors who were not powerful as him had also done this.
There was even a powerful warrior who had left behind his divine consciousness after being captured and disappeared for a while after leaving the Land of Demon Slayers.
When he came back, he went to kill the clan who had captured him.
In the end, he died together with this clan.
The clan elders quickly made a list of all the humans they had captured. “Make a record of all the humans we have, and continue looking for more.”
Before leaving the Land of Demon Slayers, several old orc clans joined forces to attack other orc clans.
The list of the captured humans from the destroyed orc clans fell into their hands.
At the same time, Feng Baiqing and other masters also frantically fought and killed just to get their hands on this list.
The Land of Demon Slayers had always been chaotic, but now, it was in absolute turmoil.
Fortunately, this chaos didn’t last long. The Land of Demon Slayers continued to shrink.
Li Mu and the four girls were also displaced.
After leaving, Li Mu immediately looked for the four girls.
“This whole place has become one country.”
After half a month, Li Mu found Liu Xiu.
By this time, the news of what had happened in the Demon Tower had spread to all the major forces in Fenglan.
Naturally, they were looking everywhere for the humans that had suddenly appeared throughout the land. They wanted to find this mysterious Li Mu.
In didn’t matter if it was a man and woman.
Since no one knew whether Li Mu was a man or a woman.
It was only then did Li Mu realize that he had gotten himself in a pickle.
“Why don’t I just reveal my identity and create a ruckus?”
In a random city, Li Mu used his divine consciousness to scan every corner of the city, but he couldn’t find anyone familiar.
He was thinking about exposing himself and attracting the attention of all the major forces in the mainland so as to give the girls a chance to escape.
With his divine consciousness, he saw a group of orc warriors flocking to the center of the city.
“I found Li Mu!”
“Go grab him!”
…
Did they find the wrong Li Mu? Suspicious, Li Mu immediately followed them.
When he reached the center of the city, he saw a middle-aged, crazy-looking man standing on the top of a clock tower.
“I am Li Mu! Why don’t you come and catch me? Come on!” the middle-aged lunatic shouted at the orcs below him. He waved a stick wildly.
“Could it be another fake?”
“At least it’s a human this time. It seems more likely than the previous one.”
Everyone looked up at this crazy man. They were very confused.
“Are you so desperate for fame? What’s your real name?” someone shouted from below.
“Li Mu, my name is Li Mu!”
“Bah! If you are Li Mu, why haven’t I seen you in the Land of Demon Slayers?” someone asked again.
“What’s that got to do with me? Have you even been to the Land of Demon Slayers? Why haven’t I seen you in the Land of Demon Slayers?”
“Haha! He’s just a faker. I didn’t see him in the Land of Demon Slayers,” said the man standing below.
The middle-aged lunatic remained nonchalant. “Huh! I can’t be bothered with what you think.”
“If you’re really Li Mu, then why aren’t you hiding?” asked a highly skilled human in the crowd. “Instead, you’re here shouting in the middle of the streets. Are you looking to die?”
“The entire continent is looking for me. Where can I hide? Sooner or later, someone will find me. I might as well just hand over the techniques and treasures I found, and I will finally be free.”
“Is that why you are exposing yourself in the middle of the city?”
“Yes. If I hand out the techniques and exercises in the center of the city, then everyone can witness that the exercises are no longer with me. This will keep me safe. News of this will also spread very quickly. This way, no one will chase after me. More importantly, I can also sell the exercises for a good price!”
“Selling it at a good price? He must be a scammer.”
Ooh la la!
Many orcs below shook their heads.
This was a very common scam.
The crowd around the clock tower paused to think for a moment.
It wasn’t long before people started to move forward excitedly.
A lot of warriors quickly surrounded the middle-aged madman.
Obviously, some of them believed the words of this middle-aged lunatic.
Other meanwhile, wanted to wait and see.
What if what this person said was really true?
