Chapter 808 - Li Mus True Power

Chapter 808 Li Mu’s True Power

The old men in Randengsi Village would eventually shock the entire world with their toughness and formidable powers. The old faker was very proud. He wanted to prove that not only could he cultivate a monster like Li Mu, but he could also train and turn a group of dying old men into peerless masters. Various powers and sects that had sent their people to Randengsi Village to test the waters felt that things were getting difficult.

Only the true great powers could see that although all the areas of Baoji City were places of blessing and good fortune, the real hub was Randengsi Village in Mount Shaozu.

Randeng Temple was like the eye of a large magical formation, and it was the most vital spot among all the important places in Baoji City.

That was one of the reasons why so many powers had secretly come to Randengsi Village to test the waters.

It was said that Li Mu, the Eastern God of War, was born in this small place.

However, tens of tough old men in Randengsi Village stood in the way of those great powers.

Among all places in Baoji City, only Jintai Temple, which was situated at the foot of a hill in the northwest of Baoji City, was somewhat comparable to Randeng Temple in terms of its geographical location. These two temples were located at two corners of Baoji City. They faced each other at a certain distance like the two eyes of the Yin and Yang symbol.

Neither Randeng Temple nor Jintai Temple enjoyed any peace in the last few days.

The old men in Randengsi Village had just driven away a group of people who came to the village to spy. In the twilight, they squatted on the farmland and smoked as usual.

Suddenly, they saw a young man riding a white tiger on a mountain road in the distance, headed in their direction.

The white tiger’s fur was snow-white, and it looked very majestic. Its heavy feet padded on the ground without making a sound. It walked as if it were moving in the void. When it stepped on the tips of grasses, twigs, wheat seedlings, and leeks, its giant body seemed weightless, and the tips of grasses, twigs, wheat seedlings, and leeks didn’t even bend.

The young man on the white tiger’s back wore a suit of blood-red leather armor and carried a broadsword on his back. The broadsword was wider than his body. The blade was also blood-red with black spots. At first glance, people could see wisps of evil spirits coming out of the broadsword like thin streams of blood.

“Here’s another one.”

“That young man seems very powerful.”

“Perhaps we can’t defeat him.”

“What should we do?”

“What else can we do?”

Several old men whispered while squatting on the farm field.

When the white tiger walked past them, none of them stood up to stop it. They carefully hid the majestic auras that they had and pretended to be merely farmers in the fields.

The white tiger took several steps and suddenly stopped.

“Elders, may I ask how to get to Randeng Temple?”

The young man on the back of the white tiger had long black hair with a black hairband and eyes as black as ink. He was a very handsome young man, but his strange sharp teeth, which were sparkling white but looked like the teeth of a saw, gave people the creeps when he spoke.

“It’s over there.”

“That’s right. Walk down this road, turn left at its end, turn right when you see an old locust tree, keep walking until you reach the ‘young master’s legacy plaque, and walk up the stairs. The temple is at the end of the stairs.”

The old men hurriedly and eagerly told the young man the address as if they were very hospitable.

The young man looked at the old men and smiled. “Many thanks.”

Then, he left riding the white tiger.

The old men chuckled as they watched the white tiger leave, looking as if they took delight in the misfortunes of others.

“I suddenly remembered the dog that Li Mu raised back then.” Old Zhang puffed at his pipe and said, “That dog is called Hus... What’s it called? It is the king of dogs. Maybe it can be a match for that white tiger.”

A hand reached out from the void and crushed the destructive red light.

It was a very elegant, beautiful and white hand which looked as if it was crafted from white jade. Its every curve and every inch were naturally beautiful. At first glance, people couldn’t help looking forward to holding such a beautiful hand.

However, such a soft and beautiful hand managed to stop the destructive red light that even Wang Shiwu was unable to resist.

Not only did it stop the red light which had such destructive power, but it also diminished the red light.

“What?”

The strange white man’s deathly pale face stiffened and shock flashed across his eyes.

Wang Shiwu opened his eyes and saw a thin young man who was a little shorter than him, standing right in front of him. The young man had saved him.

He could only see the back of the young man.

The young man wore a white robe and had shiny black hair. He was dressed in an old fashioned and simple manner, his robe was loose and he gave off a powerful aura.

“Watch carefully. Let me show you how to use the sword skills Li Mu taught you.”

The mysterious young man’s voice was clear and crisp and sounded like two pieces of fine jade colliding.

Before his voice faded away...

The broken sword in Wang Shiwu’s hand flew into the young man’s hand.

The young man thrust the sword forward.

It was the “Sword Qi” skill that Wang Shiwu had performed before.

A beam of silvery sword light shot out from the broken sword.

The energy waves produced by the young man’s move were exactly the same as those produced by Wang Shiwu, but the young man’s skill was much more exquisite than the one performed by Wang Shiwu. The Sword Qi flowed smoothly and naturally. As the beam of sword light shot out, shock flashed across the eyes of the strange white man with a deathly pale face. The beam of sword light directly caused the white man to disintegrate into blood mist, without even leaving a piece of broken bone ...

“This...”

Wang Shiwu was greatly shocked.

“What terrifying power!”

The moves and energy waves were the same, but the powers produced were different.

In an instant, the enemy deemed by Wang Shiwu to be invincible was reduced to ashes.

“You... Who are you? How do you know the sword skills that Li Mu taught me?” Wang Shiwu swallowed and asked in surprise.

“Watch carefully. Here comes the second move.”

The young man in the white robe continued.

This time, silvery light swirled around the broken sword in his hand, and numerous beams of astral light flickered.

In front of him, the rays of red light swirled and converged into a figure that flickered and looked like something between illusion and reality. Then, a voice full of hostility rang out. “I didn’t expect that there would be such a powerful master like you here. I’m surprised, but I’m an undying god. What can you do to me?”

Before the voice faded off...

The young man in the white robe moved like a flash of lightning and thrust the broken sword in his hand.

“Astral Sword!”

That was another sword skill Li Mu taught Wang Shiwu.

A beam of light sliced through the red figure into two pieces from the top of the head to the crotch like a piece of cake. The power of the Astral Sword erupted, blowing the two pieces of the red figure into nothingness.

Wang Shiwu was dumbfounded.

It was the same skill with the same principle and power.

However, when the skill was performed by the white-robed young man, its power was simply devastating.

“Who... Who on earth are you?”

Wang Shiwu asked in a trembling voice.

The young man turned around.

He had an extremely handsome face.

The face looked familiar to Wang Shiwu.

Something flashed across Wang Shiwu’s mind like a bolt of lightning.

It was a strange face, but for some reason, his heartbeat accelerated wildly when he saw the young man’s eyes, as if something deep inside of him had been ignited.

“You... You are...” Wang Shiwu stuttered, but he didn’t know why.

The white-robed young man looked at Wang Shiwu, his eyes shining like stars.

Suddenly, Wang Shiwu saw flickering rays of red light full of Devil Qi behind the white-robed young man. Then, the rays of red light turned into a ferocious-looking shadow, which charged at the young man fiercely. That strange white man was not completely dead yet.

“Watch out!” Wang Shiwu shouted out a warning to the white-robed young man.

The young man seemed to have foreseen this. He thrust his hand backward without even looking back. Sword light swirled at his fingertips and turned into a strange sword talisman like a net, which directly caught the red Devil Qi, shrank it, and then it fell onto his palm.

The red Devil Qi became a red figure about the size of an egg, struggling and jumping in the hand of the white-robed young man.

“Ah, who are you? Are you a god too?”

The little red figure jumped and screamed shrilly in horror.

“A god?” The white-robed young man said with a sneer, “Your skills are so lame. How dare you call yourself a god? You’re really a frog at the bottom of a well.” He opened his mouth and blew. A wisp of sword wind swirled and blew away the little red figure.

This time, the strange white man was completely dead.

At the same time, in a secret chamber at the base of Fierce Tiger Gang in the Wide North Continent tens of thousands of miles away, an ancient ebony wood sculpture exploded and turned into pieces. Screams rang out, and dark red blood seeped out of the wood, giving off a foul odor.

The white-robed young man glanced at Wang Shiwu. His eyes looked as if they had penetrated time and space, which made Wang Shiwu feel a little anxious. He suddenly smiled and opened his hand, in which there were five green pills which gave off a faint scent. Then, he said, “Here you are. Give a pill to each of your wife, daughter, and parents and keep one for yourself.”

“Pills?”

These pills looked extraordinary.

Wang Shiwu took them from the white-robed young man and said doubtfully, “Thank you for saving my life. I will never forget such a great favor. I wonder if you can tell me your name, I...”

The white-robed young man smiled. “I came here at someone’s request. A friend named Wang Shiyu asked me to save you.”

“What?” Wang Shiwu was shocked on hearing that. His eyes lit up, flashing with excitement. “Shiyu? You... Do you know my sister? Where... where is she now? Has she finished her closed-door training? Has she come back from the immortal realm? Why hasn’t she come to see us in person?”

He asked a series of questions.

The white-robed young man had a myriad of expressions on his face. He said, “She had some business to attend to and could not come personally. She had no choice but to ask me to come here.”

“Do we have to wait any longer?”

“What business can be more important than her parents?” Wang Shiwu couldn’t help shouting loudly, “Back then, if it hadn’t been for Li Mu, her parents would have passed away, and she would have been remorseful for the rest of her life... I don’t know how long our parents can hold on if things continue like this.”

“You have to trust her.” The white-robed young man sighed and said, “In the vast universe, the path that she walks is the most difficult one full of thorns. If even her favorite person can’t understand her... Bear in mind that no matter what, she is your sister. Everything that she is doing now is for your sake.”

After saying that, the white-robed young man turned around.

Wang Shiwu grew anxious. He hurriedly asked, “Is... is she safe?”

The white-robed slowed down a little bit and said, “She’s safe, and she will take good care of herself.”

Wang Shiwu said, “Please tell her that we all miss her very much and we will always stand by her no matter what happens, and Li Mu will support her all the time...”

Without turning around, the white-robed young man nodded and said, “I will tell her that.”

Wang Shiwu was filled with emotions, but he didn’t know how to express them.

“By the way, what’s your name? Can you please tell me?” Wang Shiwu asked again.

The young man moved like a flash of light and disappeared into the distant sky.

“Wang Yanyi.”

A voice rang out in the distance.

“Wang Yanyi?

“He’s also surnamed Wang...”

Wang Shiwu stood there, silent.

At the same time.

Li Mu finally arrived in Baoji City.

He passed by the Hidden-dragon Bay reservoir and saw a fruit tree with its huge canopy of leaves that almost covered the entire reservoir. He looked greatly surprised.

“This fruit tree... is a little weird.”

He stopped in his tracks.
