Chapter 1013 The Inquisition
“Where can’t the Sword Whizzes of the Brotherhood of Swords go?”
The handsome young man in white was Sword Fanatic, one of the six rogue swords in the Brotherhood of Swords.
Li Mu was in the light, while Sword Fanatic and Li Xuanjun were in the dark.
“Nice move. No wonder you’re from the Brotherhood of Swords,” the tiger-headed devil said. “Sword Fanatic, are you here for the legacy of Cosmic Emperor Deathless as well?”
The Sword Fanatic said, “Can’t I come here?”
The tiger-headed devil laughed and said, “Of course, you can. The inheritance of the Cosmic Emperor Deathless is no longer a secret. Several major forces have taken action this time. The Military of Man has also sent people here. Of course, the Sword Fanatic can compete for it. I was a little surprised just now.”
“Ha… Okay. I’m relieved to hear that,” the Sword Fanatic said. “But the commotion here just now has nothing to do with the Athanasia Immortal Palace of the Cosmic Emperor Deathless. There is no inheritance of the Cosmic Emperor Deathless on this planet. Brothers of the Tiger Race, please go around it.”
The Tiger Soul Devil Emperor thought for a moment and burst out laughing. “Well, I believe in Sword Fanatic. The Tiger Race will never set foot on this planet. Let’s go.”
He turned around and left with the other six devils of the Tiger Race.
Sword Fanatic rubbed his chin and said to himself with a smile, “Among devil races, the Fox Race is full of tricks, the Ape Race is savage, the Corpse Race is gloomy, the Spirit Clan is pure, and the Tiger Race is brave and upright. Fortunately, Tiger Race came this time. Otherwise, we would have a battle.”
When Li Mu and Sword Fanatic came back to Qing Feng’s house, little Ming Yue was still absorbing the Darkest Soul-devouring Fire. She had absorbed half of it. In general, it was not slow. But if compared with the speed of Qing Feng, it was much slower.
Qing Feng stayed to take care of Ming Yue.
Li Mu returned to the Knife Hut.
“Your honor.”
There were already people waiting in the living room of the bamboo house. They were Yuan Hou and the four disciples of the Hun Yuan Sect.
Yuan Hou cultivated Ultimate Yin and Yang Cultivation Method. Now, he had mastered it and reached a high level. He could change himself into 81 shapes, and he had an indestructible body. His combat capability was strong. In the past two years, he had wandered in the Ziwei Star Zone and gained a good reputation as the Great Ape King. He could be regarded as a big shot. However, he was still very respectful to Li Mu.
“Good.”
Li Mu patted Yuan Hou on the shoulder with gratification.
Yuan Hou used to be a naughty boy, but he became a famous hero today. All the forces in the Zone called him Great Ape King, while the Taibai Empire regarded him as the number one God of War in the empire and the mainstay of the Heavenly Land Planet.
Li Mu took out his Gourd Used for Nourishing Weapons and took out the divine weapon, Heavenly Exclamation. Then he said, “I got this weapon at an auction. It’s known as a famous weapon of the devil races. It’s powerful and suitable for you.”
When Yuan Hou saw the appearance of the Golden Coiling Dragon Cudgel, his eyes suddenly lit up.
“Thank you, Chief.”
Yuan Hou took Heavenly Exclamation with both hands and suddenly felt its weight. The weight of the Golden Coiling Dragon Rod was far beyond his imagination. He ran his Ultimate Yin and Yang Cultivation Method naturally. He held the long cudgel with both hands and activated it with his demonic power. The coiled dragons on the stick began to rotate as if they were alive.
Yuan Hou had never felt so compatible before. In an instant, he had a desire to swing the long cudgel and fight.
“Good weapon.”
He was so happy that he didn’t let go of it.
Li Mu also gave the former Four Men’s Symphony of Hun Yuan Sect, the current four Heavenly Kings of the Taibai Empire, some weapons and sets of armor as a reward for their hard work in guarding the Heavenly Land Planet over the years. Although these things were not as good as the divine weapon Heavenly Exclamation, they were still top-grade in the Ziwei Star Zone.
“Thank you, your honor.”
The hook-nosed man and the goldfish-eyed men bowed respectfully.
Back then, they were outer-space forces who had entered the Heavenly Land Planet to compete for the treasures in the Tomb of the God of Sin. They were originally Li Mu’s enemies. But in the end, they were suppressed by Li Mu and had to become Li Mu’s slaves. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. They survived and restored the Hun Yuan Sect. The other experts who had landed on the Heavenly Land Planet together with them, such as the Heavenly Devil Sect, had turned into ashes long ago.
In addition to these people, there were also some people waiting out of the Knife Hut. They all wanted to see Li Mu. Most of them were nobles of the Taibai Empire, kings from all over the world, and many experts in new martial arts. When they heard that Li Mu was back, they came to see him and make friends with him.
However, Li Mu had no time to deal with these people.
He let Feng Yuanxing deal with the matters.
Four Men’s Symphony would stay in Taibai City for the time being. Li Mu brought Yuan Hou to Qing Feng’s house. At this time, Ming Yue had absorbed the Darkest Soul-devouring Fire. Her face was red, and she was trying hard to refine and merge with it.
Qing Feng was very serious and guarded her beside.
Li Mu calculated the time and said, “I’m going to the Ghost Star. Qing Feng, you stay here to guard Ming Yue. Don’t leave the Heavenly Land Planet for the time being.”
Before Qing Feng could say anything, Ming Yue jumped up and said, “Young Master, I’ll go too. I haven’t been to the Ghost Star for a long time. I miss Sister Caicai.”
Li Mu rubbed his glabella speechlessly.
At this time, Qing Feng also said, “Young Master, I also want to go to the Ghost Star, but I don’t know the reason. I always feel that the Ghost Qi there can suppress the strange rhythm in my body. Maybe I can find the answer this time.”
Li Mu looked at Qing Feng in surprise. After thinking for a while, he said, “Okay! Let’s go together.”
“Wow, that’s great.” Ming Yue jumped up.
After so many years, the little girl had become a 16-year-old girl, but she seemed to have not grown up yet.
“Let’s go.”
As Li Mu moved, an invisible power gushed out and ripped the void with Yuan Hou, Qing Feng, and Ming Yue. The next moment, they arrived in the universe.
A handsome young man in white appeared not far ahead.
At the sight of Li Mu, the handsome man in white came over and bowed very respectfully. “Seventh Martial Uncle.”
Yuan Hou felt the Sword Qi and Sword Intent surging in the man’s body. Although they didn’t emanate deliberately, they still made Yuan Hou’s heart palpitate. He felt a sharp pain on his skin. He was shocked at once. “I have been to so many places in the Ziwei Star Zone. Why have I never met such an unparalleled young expert of Sword Way before?”
Li Mu said helplessly, “Brother Xuanjun, didn’t I tell you that we can call each other as we please?”
Li Xuanjun resolutely said, “Rules can’t be abolished.”
The swordsman was stubborn.
“All right,” Li Mu could only agree. Then, he asked, “Where is Third Brother?”
“Third Martial Uncle encountered people from the Military of Man. They’re millions of kilometers away. He ordered me to wait here for Seventh Martial Uncle and take you to meet the people of the Military of Man,” Li Xuanjun said.
People from the Military of Man?
Li Mu was not very surprised.
The Military of Man also got a Realm-breaking Diagram in the underground city of the Constellation Demon Mountain. Therefore, it’s reasonable for them to come to the Ziwei Star Zone. However, it seemed that the people of the Military of Man were waiting for him, which surprised him a little.
After all, Li Mu was still on the List of the Condemned of the Human Clan.
What was the purpose of the Military of Man?
Li Mu hesitated for a moment. Since Sword Fanatic let him go there, there should be no big trouble. It was good to meet the people from the Military of Man. After all, he had to return to the Battlefield of Chaos in the future. He had to meet them sooner or later.
After flying for more than 10 minutes, Li Mu and the others saw a large black ship in ancient styles appear in the starry sky from a distance. It was about a hundred meters long and had three floors. There were two three-story towers on two sides of the highest floor. There was a square in the middle with hundreds of people there.
“How many Realm-breaking Diagrams did the Military of Man get? Why did they send out so many people here?”
Li Mu was greatly surprised.
Near the ship, a layer of ripples opened a crack. Li Mu and the others went in, and the crack closed again.
“Ha… Seventh Brother, you’re finally here. Come on! Let me introduce these friends from the Military of Man to you.” Sword Fanatic laughed heartily.
Eight people walked out from the main hall at the back of the square.
The first person was Sword Fanatic.
The person behind him was a middle-aged man in a black robe with a seven-star crown on his head. He was holding a White Crane Feather Fan in his hand. He had an elegant face, bright eyes, a straight nose, and a straight mouth. Three strands of black beard fluttered in front of his chest. An elegant and handsome aura emanated from him.
There were six people behind the black-robed middle-aged man. Three of them stood on his left, and three were on his right.
The three people on the right were military experts in scarlet fish-scale armor. They were not weak, and there were standard broadswords hanging from their waists. At first glance, Li Mu knew they were experienced experts who had fought on the battlefield at the front line for many years. They were all at the peak of the Great Way Realm. There was an evil aura surrounding them. As they walked, it seemed that thousands of troops were rushing over with great strength.
The three people on the left were wearing four-part black leather armor with delicate shapes. There were patterns of tactical deployment on the leather armor. They flickered fluorescent lights. The three men were wearing leather hats with two of the Military of Man of Celestial Silkworm hanging down from the ears and tied to their necks. Each of them had a dark blue whip wrapped around their waists and standard two swords on their backs. The scabbards were crossed on their backs. The men were all wearing leather Shura masks as if they were Killing Gods in the dark night.
“This is Zhuge Yun, the Chief of the Branch of the Divine Troops of the Military of Man. The Military of Man sent him to be in charge of the exploration of the legacy of the Cosmic Emperor Deathless.” Sword Fanatic introduced with a smile.
Zhuge Yun smiled and make an obeisance, “I have heard of your name before I came here. You are the seventh sword of the Brotherhood of Swords.”
Li Mu made obeisance and said, “Senior, I wish I deserved your compliment. I can’t be called the seventh sword of the Brotherhood of Swords. I have no profound attainments in swordsmanship.”
Zhuge Yun pointed to the three people on his right with a calm look and said, “These three are my three disciples. They are now leading troops at the front line of the Sacred Deathmatch. This time, they are specially transferred back to help me. They are Zuo Qing, Wang Meng, and Li Yan.”
“Greetings, your honor.”
The three armored Generals who had fought for many years all made obeisance to Li Mu.
Li Mu returned the salute.
Zhuge Yun smiled again, pointed to the three masked strong men in black leather armor on the left, and said, “These three men are the Sword Envoys of the Inquisition of the Military of Man. Strictly speaking, they are now your subordinates.”
“Oh! Huh?” Li Mu nodded at first, then was shocked and said, “My subordinates? Senior Zhuge, what do you mean?”
Sword Fanatic laughed wildly. “Ha… Seventh Brother, I forgot to tell you. You are now the head of the Inquisition of the Military of Man. Congratulations. You have reached heaven in one step and gained great power. Ha…”
