Semua Bab The Divine Martial Stars: Bab 111 - Bab 120

Li Mu sounded quite resolute, implying his strong confidence. At that declaration, Zheng Cunjian's heart contracted with shock. The Heartless Scholar could not help wondering what on earth had happened to the Second Young Master over the past eight years, because this Li Mu was so different from the little boy in his memory it seemed that he had changed into another person—not only his strength became freaking strong but his character also grew much more decisive and stauncher. It suddenly occurred to Zheng Cunjian that maybe the magistrate had made a huge mistaking by throwing three punches against the Second Young Master and cutting his son off. He felt one day his old master would really regret it. But when he was still in the shock, Li Mu already began to plan out the trip to the Chang'an government in his head. He had put down his foot on that decision. In fact, there was a slew of reasons for h

Qin Zhen continued, "General Tang was a hero to our empire. But in order to protect me and my younger brother, he was executed for a crime he did not commit. That's a huge grace he gave us. Now, his widow and children were in trouble. How can I just stay put and watch them be sent to the Musical House and make a living by pleasing the pimps?" Wang Chen hurriedly advised, "Yeah, the death of General Tang is truly a shame. And we are certainly going to rescue his widow and children. But Your Highness, you cannot do it in person. Have you considered why they will be sent to the Musical House of the Chang'an government? Actually, the reason is plain. Because you have come to Chang'an. They must have already foreseen that you will get involved in the rescue and they probably have laid out many traps there, waiting for Your Highness to fall in. Given that the spring hunting has just finished and the aftermath of that matter has not faded yet, the emperor must still be angry.

Yes, the county government looked no longer the same. When the streaks of snake-like purple lightning and the dark clouds faded away, a puff of white mist drifted over and wrapped around the county government. Shrouded by the mystical white mist, the whole mansion was partly hidden and partly visible from all angles. The red walls and crimson gate were indistinct, and the inside of the mansion sometimes disappeared behind the mist and then reappearing again. Regardless of the observing spot, the county government now looked close but also remote as if the distance kept changing, which gave the viewers a feeling that it was ethereal and unreachable. At that view, Qin Zhen and Wang Chen, who were both on the corridor of the sixth floor of the Orchid High-Rise, were lost in immense shock and befuddlement. The two, both excelling at martial arts, had a deeper and clearer perception of the change than ordinary people.

The Taibai Mountain was carpeted with primeval forests. At that time, it looked like a sea of green leaves, which was quite a fine scenery. Riding a dark-maned horse, Li Mu was strolling along the government-built road that led out of the mountains. Closely behind him was Zheng Cunjian, who was also riding a dark-maned horse. This time, Li Mu decided to take a trip to Chang'an alone. So, he did not bring any servants along, except Zheng Cunjian, his captive who was familiar with Chang'an and could serve as a navigator. Chang'an was in the northeast, about 700 miles away from Taibai County. There was only one government-built road that was a hundred years old connecting the two places. The road weaved through the mountains like a white snake zigzagging around the peaks. Twittering of wild birds and howls of beasts and wolf packs could be heard all the way down the road. Towering trees and protruding rocks could be

"Chedang?" The woman in white thought of something subconsciously. Che as in clear as water, Dang as in its texture as cinnabar? Compared to Madcap, this religious name made a lot more sense, and it suited the little monk's slow-witted, dumb character. "Big brother, big sister, you need to leave now. Those bad guys, they will come back for sure... they're terrifying." The little girl told them in panic. Granny Cai also kept telling Li Mu that they should leave. Those hooligans led by Ma San were just ordinary hooligans in town a couple of years ago, they didn't dare to do anything outrageous. But a year ago, after the new mayor took up the official post, somehow Ma San got close with this new mayor. Under the official permit and secretive control of the mayor, they were getting more and more outrageous. Especially in the past six months, they were at the peak of evilness, getting bold and evil. They did all kinds
