BXBX NOVEL Chapter 654 - Who Do You Think You Are?
Chapter 654 Who Do You Think You Are?
Three days later, the screening of the Sixty Heavenly Legends was over. The sixty stone halls of the Baiyu Dynasty’s imperial palace that had been prepared long ago were now had their owners.
These Heavenly Legends had different temperaments. Some lived in the stone halls and practiced behind closed doors. Some seemed to be helplessly immersed in the beautiful scenery of the palace. Others were indulged in sensual pleasure with the beautiful palace maids gifted by the royal family... They were all quite different.
Li Mu didn’t behave the way he had used to. He was practicing hard in retreat. In the Battle of Ghost Rally Star, after the flaws in the mind were made up, his innate skills had gone to the next level, which allowed him to understand that some things in cultivation were more about the perfect integration of mind and body as well as chance. The improvement and harmony of the state of mind were also very important.
He had used to have a tight mind, and it was mostly self-cultivation. Now, he had begun to reflect on his previous cultivation path and decided to cultivate his mind.
How to cultivate the mind? Li Mu had been trying to figure it out these days.
The reason why he had been trapped in the sixth level of Natural Skill before was that there were flaws in his mind. He didn’t know it and felt guilty. So no matter how hard he worked in cultivation, he still couldn’t break through. If there were debt and guilt, there would be flaws in the mind.
In the beginning, he had too many scruples, which led to his failure to rescue the Great Moon Dynasty. So the result of Li Mu’s contemplation was to cultivate the mind, so he had to do whatever he wanted.
But this kind of freedom was not to do whatever he wanted in a superficial sense or to indulge in animalism. It was more about righteousness when one decided to do something even though tens of thousands of people advised him not to.
It was more about is the cherishing of love when one decided to love someone even though his love might not be acceptable to the world. It was more about the choice of benevolence when one decided to risk his life for the greater good.
It was more about... the meaning and bottom line of life. Li Mu thought of a very famous character in Louis Cha Jing-yong’s martial arts novels, Huang Yaoshi.
People in the world laughed at me for being too crazy and I laugh at them for being too superficial. Huang Yaoshi despised secular ethics, but he was more gentleman than anyone else. He was the epitome of true freedom.
Therefore, after daily practice, Li Mu would ask the maid Bi Yan to take him around the palace to enjoy the beautiful scenery or observe other Heavenly Legends and the successfully constructed arena that was being blessed by the rune formation in the later period. Civil practice and martial arts should be done at intervals
Baiyu Dynasty was a typical dynasty of cultivators, which valued personal strength most. But things like etiquettes, official ranks, grades were similar to those of a secular dynasty. Li Mu saw many novel things.
He even met the princesses and princes of the Heavenly Fox Clan. They were all good at the strength and not to be underestimated. “Are you Li Yidao of that One-cut Sect?”
In the Imperial Garden, a man stopped Li Mu in an unfriendly tone. It was a young man in his early twenties, with a fair face and long slanted eyes with obvious jealousy and arrogance. He was followed by an equally young and slender palace maid. It seemed that he should be ranked among the sixty Heavenly Legends.
The young man stared at Li Mu and sneered, “Remember my name. My name is Lin Buyan. I rank 22nd. I am destined to the real genius to break your One-cut Sect and go to the home planet of Heavenly Fox Clan over your body.”
“Oh.” Li Mu’s reaction was dull. There was no expression on the silver faceless mask.
Lin Buyan was pissed off by Li Mu’s reaction. What do you mean? Are you looking down on me?
While they were talking, several figures came in front of him. “Well, you’re the arrogant kid Lin Buyan, right?” One of them, with a casual look of ridicule on his face, pointed to Lin Buyan and said, “I heard that you have provoked every Heavenly Legend below twenty on the list?”
Really? What was he doing? Li Mu felt that Lin Buyan was really arrogant. “Yes. So what?” Lin Buyan sneered.
But when he turned to glare at the group of people and saw their faces clearly, he couldn’t help being intimated. The person who was speaking was in his late twenties. His hair was red as blood, his figure was slender and his face was sharply angular. He was dressed in red armor and looked quite imposing.
It was Saint of Blood Sea. Li Mu was instantly tempted to kill him, but he didn’t.
Of course, Saint of Blood Sea couldn’t recognize him now. Saint of Blood Sea had been chased like a stray dog by Li Mu, who was not able to break through at the time. Now he had become the top ten popular candidates in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region. Li Mu had thought it was a bit funny before.
But he knew that the strength of Saint of Blood Sea had indeed been greatly improved, and he seemed to be completely reborn. It seemed that he had used some secret method to forcibly increase his cultivation level.
He had really taken the contest of little princess Heavenly Fox Clan recruiting a husband very seriously The people standing next to Saint of Blood Sea seem to have entered the top sixteen Heavenly Legends in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region, especially one of them whose power of demonic aura was looming, and he seemed faintly the core of other people. He was certainly the first Heavenly Legend, Little Heavenly Devil from the Heavenly Devil Sect, that the old shopkeeper Qiu Ling had talked about.
“Little ant, how dare you! ” Little Heavenly Devil glanced at Lin Buyan with contempt. He looked at Li Mu again and snorted coldly, “You’re rubbish too.”
When his gaze fell on Bi Yan, the palace maid beside Li Mu, his eyes suddenly lit up. “Huh? Not bad, not bad... From now on, you will follow me.”Little Heavenly Devil said to Bi Yan.
Heavenly Devil Sect, when they cultivated to the true core meaning of Heavenly Devil Tactics, they would pay attention to the sensual devil, and indulge in their passions. Little Heavenly Devil happened to focus on the sensual practice, and he could instantly tell that the palace maid around Li Yidao was a very good cultivation furnace. Bi Yan looked panicked.
In the past few days, there had been rumors in the palace that the Little Heavenly Devil, known as the number one among the Sixty Heavenly Legends, was cruel and psychologically distorted. To practice the exercises, several palace maids had been tortured and ruined, and the head palace maid around him had also been replaced several times. “I’m Mr. Li’s. I...” Bi Yan tried to decline with a panic expression.
“You are still a virgin. Now I ask, you are mine.” Little Heavenly Devil was extremely overbearing and did not allow Bi Yan to defend at all. Then he said to a Baiyu Dynasty steward who was following him, “Go give him another palace maid. I want this woman.”
“Yes. I’ll right on it.” The palace steward obviously respected the number one of the sixty Heavenly Legends, and he didn’t dare to disobey him at all. So he agreed. Then he turned to Bi Yan and said, “What are you waiting for? Come on. Now you belong to the Heavenly Devil Master.”
Bi Yan looked desperate. She knew how much the Heavenly Devil Master was respected in the palace. It was said that even Emperor Baiyu considered himself an equal with this Heavenly Legend. She was just an ordinary palace maid, and there was no room for resistance.
With great fear in her heart, Bi Yan walked towards Little Heavenly Devil. Her face was pale and her body was trembling.
At this time—”Wait a minute.” Li Mu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
Bi Yan stopped and turned to look at Li Mu. The last gleam of hope flashed in her beautiful eyes.
Was Mr. Li willing to offend the famous Little Heavenly Devil for her? Li Mu looked at Little Heavenly Devil, and his face without facial features seemed condescending, “Who do you think you are?”
Little Heavenly Devil was stunned, “What did you say?” He thought he had heard it wrong.
How dare someone talk to him in such a tone? “I said, who do you think you are? Huh? If you don’t want to die here before the arena battle starts, you can get out of here as fast as you can.” Li Mu said, “You’re just a mad dog crawling out of the Devil Sect shit. How dare you show your teeth in front of me? How dare you touch my woman?”
It was a dead silence around. Every Heavenly Legend among the top sixty were fanatics, but no one had gone as far as if Li Yidao.
He was asking for trouble. “Huh? Haha!” After Little Heavenly Devil was so astonished that he smirked, “Who am I?”
As he closed and opened his eyes, the scarlet devil’s pupils flickered in his eyes, and the terrifying breath radiated from his body like a stormy sea, “Very well, now I will tell you what I am and who you are.” He pushed towards Li Mu step by step.
“I promise, you will die very, very miserably.” Little Heavenly Devil had a fierce and mighty eruption.
Li Mu pulled Bi Yan behind him and held the handle of the Samsara Knife with his right hand. An invisible killing intent was circulating in the void.
At this moment of tension, there suddenly came a voice from the depths of the White Jade Palace. “Before the arena battle, whoever kills privately will die!”
It was a hoarse and majestic voice. All at once, all Heavenly Legends felt that the sky suddenly collapsed, and the indescribable pressure made everyone breathless.
It was the messenger from Heavenly Fox Clan’s home planet. Little Heavenly Devil stopped, and the evil spirit on his body gradually dissipated.
Li Mu’s hand on the handle of the knife slowly loosened. Obviously, this was a messenger from the home planet of Heavenly Fox Clan who didn’t want the Heavenly Legends to fight in the palace before the battle started.
The strength of this messenger was probably in the King Realm. With a single thought, the momentum of the two Heavenly Legends was suppressed.
It was terrible. Was this the underlying power of Heavenly Fox Clan?
The Heavenly Legends were secretly awed. “You are lucky today.” Little Heavenly Devil stared at Li Mu, smiled coldly, and said, “You’d better pray not to meet me in the arena battle. Otherwise, I will let you know that the most painful thing in this world is not death.”
Li Mu said, “Really? I’m afraid that when the time comes, you will understand that in front of my knife, your so-called superiority is like a joke, and your bones are not as hard as you imagine.”
Little Heavenly Devil sneered. He stopped quarreling with Li Mu, and looked at Bi Yan, and said viciously, “Little fox, you will regret your choice today for the rest of your life.” Bi Yan turned pale instantly.
