Chapter 790 - Welcome to the Trap



Chapter 790 Welcome to the Trap

Rubbing his temples, Li Mu said, “They are...courting death eagerly.”

“Come on. Let’s go to the Cultivators’ Association.”

He had planned to spend some time reorganizing the Hero Martial Arts Alliance and then teach the Cultivators’ Association a lesson. However, it was beyond his expectation that these people were asking for trouble and didn’t cherish their lives.

“Should we report it to the military leaders?” Su Cuo asked.

Li Mu smiled and said, “You are a soldier, so just follow the procedures to a certain extent. Don’t worry about me. Are you worried that latent members of the Cultivators’ Association in the army would leak the news? Take it easy. It may be better if they know that I’m going.”

Su Cuo was stunned and nodded.

Li Mu never changed, he was someone who had no scruples at all.

It was a blessing for Hero Country that he appeared on Earth.

Fan Zu’ang, Lu Xun, and the others were waiting quietly in the conference room. When they returned, countless pairs of eyes were immediately focused on Li Mu.

Obviously, they had already known what happened to Luo Xuanxin and were waiting for Li Mu’s instructions.

“Commander Su will go to the Cultivators’ Association with me. The rest of you, stay here to reorganize the Hero Martial Arts Alliance. On my way back, I hope to see the flag of our alliance fluttering again like Phoenix Nirvana in Wine Spring,” Li Mu said.

Touched by his words, Fan Zu’ang ‘s expression was subtle. He opened his mouth but said nothing in the end.

He took the initiative to have a talk with Li Mu after the meeting.

“The background of the Cultivators’ Association is much too daunting. It has countless connections with cultivators sects from Dragon and Tiger Mountain, Mount Qingcheng, Songshan Mountain, and other famous mountains and rivers. Be careful, Li Mu,” He reminded him privately.

“Immortal’s sects? They’re so arrogant that they dare call themselves immortals. Anyone who makes trouble in Hero Country must bear my anger,” Li Mu said this without keeping them in mind.

“Young master, I’ve brought her here.”

The vice president of the Cultivators’ Association had a smile on his face and was accompanied by five people. One of them was Luo Xuanxin, who was tied up. She was both a disciple and a group leader of the Hero Martial Arts Alliance.

On the main chair in the hall, a young man sat quietly, wearing a top crown, a black shirt with long sleeves.

His long white fingers were as beautiful as pieces of jade, which tapped rhythmically on the armrest of the Phoebe bench adorned with rimmed gold.

His expression was easygoing, but there was a kind of cold indifference in it. With an ancient hairstyle, his handsome face showed an ethereal temperament to some extent.

Hearing the words, the young man raised his head and glanced at Luo Xuanxin.

His eyes were filled with flickering brilliance like shining stars.

His eyes gradually brimmed with radiating vigor.

The movement of his fingers stopped. Then he clapped, then smiled, and said, “Well done.”

His response made the vice president of the Cultivators’ Association feel relieved.

The young man in front of him was the young master of the Taixuan Immortal Sect on the famous Songshan Mountain. He was a real immortal who had cultivated in the fairyland and grasped supreme power, as well as powerful cultivation methods and secret skills. His existence was unimaginable to ordinary cultivators at all.

It was extremely fortunate for the Cultivators’ Association to be associated with any immortal sect in famous mountains.

However, only the mysterious and powerful young master mastered methods to connect with famous immortal sects. As a vice president, he was rarely in contact with immortals.

Unexpectedly, the young master of the Taixuan Immortal Sect took the initiative to walk out of Songshan Mountain and came to the mortal world to cultivate. He finally seized the opportunity to contact him.

After learning that the young master was looking for female disciples for Taixuan Sect, the vice president had a sudden inspiration and offered Luo Xuanxin to him.

The vice president had coveted Luo Xuanxin’s beauty for a long time and was ready to keep her for himself. However, in order to seize the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to please an immortal, he immediately offered Luo Xuanxin in exchange for an opportunity to learn the cultivation methods of the immortal sect or enter the immortal sect.

Once he entered the immortal sect, he would have eternal life which was publicly acknowledged in the cultivation world.

Compared with immortality, a woman was nothing to speak of.

“Young master, this woman has a strong background. She is the registered disciple of Li Mu, the eastern God of War in the mortal world and who has always been against Cultivators’ Association. She was supposed to be executed after being arrested. Thanks to the young master’s appreciation of her, she was spared. It’s really a blessing for her,” the vice president said with a fake smile.

The young master nodded. “This woman is destined to be immortal, who can be added to supplement the list of Taixuan Immortal Sect. You have done a good job, and I will not treat you unfairly.”

He opened his palm, and a ray of golden light emerged.

There was a gold-plated dragon dart floating about in the golden light.

“This golden dragon dart can help you make an instant kill in the Void-breaking Realm after being refined. It can even kill a semi-immortal. With your cultivation, it can be activated three times a day at most. However, it’s enough for you to dominate Hero Country.”

The young master sent the golden dragon dart over.

The vice president was overjoyed. He knelt on the ground with a plop and raised his hands high as he held the golden dragon dart. He said excitedly, “Thank you, young master. We will not hesitate to lay down our lives for you and we will follow your lead without any doubt.”

The young master smiled slightly.

He rose to his feet, walked up to Luo Xuanxin, raised her chin to observe her carefully, and said, “It’s incredible that we can find such an extraordinary woman in the mortal world, and she is also a cultivator. Ha ha, I’m so lucky.”

Being seriously injured and extremely weak, Luo Xuanxin didn’t speak a word. However, when she heard what he said, she turned her head in disgust and tried to evade the young master’s hand. She glared at him and said, “Li Mu will not forgive you.”

“Ha ha. Are you talking about the eastern God of War, Li Mu?” The young master smiled contemptuously and said, “Even incapable persons can be well-known in mediocre times. If he appears in front of me, I can kill him in one breath.”

Cultivators have to pass through the Xi’an transfer point from the DunHuang space folding passage to the Cultivators’ Association headquarters in Zhengzhou City of Henan Province.

Xi’an, the ancient capital of 16 dynasties, was also a transfer station, the same as DunHuang. Iits connection area was much larger than that of DunHuang.

However, due to Xi’an’s geographical location and history, the government exerted stricter control and management over it. New garrisons and military cultivators were also stationed in Xi’an.

However, it was extremely convenient for Li Mu and Su Cuo to travel around because of Su Cuo’s military identity.

One day later, they came to Zhengzhou city after passing Xi’an.

In ancient times, Henan province and the surrounding areas were called Central Plains, which represented orthodoxy especially in Wulin. Many martial arts sects that were famous in Jianghu came from the Central Plains.

In modern times, with the transfer of its economic and political center, Henan was no longer as influential as it used to be in ancient times. However, with the split of the sky and the ground, the recovery of Spiritual Qi, as well as the advent of the cultivation era, the importance of Central Plains began to emerge gradually again.

It was also one of the reasons why Zhengzhou was chosen to be the headquarters of the Cultivators’ Association.

Most sects set up their headquarters in mountains. But as one of the modern cultivation groups, Cultivators’ Association was different from the former ones. Its headquarter was located in the most central area of Zhengzhou city. The 66-floor modern skyscraper decorated with silvery glass, which was as clear as a mirror, looked like a long spear that pierced into the sky.

It was called the Zhongtian Building.

Since the day it was built, it had become the new landmark of the city.

Li Mu stood at the gate of the building and looked up to observe it carefully.

The imposing building was built in the style of Yin and Yang Eight Diagrams which helped to gather Qi. That was why Spiritual Qi inside the building was richer than any other place in urban areas. Judging from the construction and layout of the building alone, it was indeed built by a master. No wonder it could suppress the Hero Martial Arts Alliance.

Li Mu and Su Cuo walked into the building.

“Stop, who are you?” They were blocked by a guard in a black suit, as soon as they arrived at the door of the building.

“The building is private property and is not open to tourists. Please leave quickly.” Judging from their age and dressing, the young guard thought they were a couple who came here for fun.

Ignoring those people, Li Mu took a step forward. With a flash, he entered the hall of the building.

The dozen guards outside looked at each other in dismay.

“What’s going on?”

“Was it an illusion?”

“Hurry. Report to the higher-ups! An expert has probably broken in!”

“Hurry. Report to the captain.”

Several intelligent guards immediately reported the problem through their walkie-talkies.

“The Zhongtian Mansion is as incomparable as the sun at high noon?”

Li Mu went inside and found that the style was different from the exterior, which was made of modern metal and glass. Instead, It was decorated with bluestones, which gave the interior an antique-style look. At first glance, it seemed like the belly of an ancient mountain. It also looked like a hollow tower, which was round and had 66 floors.

Spiral staircases wound around the hollow edges of the stone wall like black snakes.

The building wasn’t equipped with any elevators.

The layout was interesting and unique.

Li Mu’s Divine Consciousness spread out like a tide to search for Luo Xuanxin.

Su Cuo stood next to him.

The alarm in the building suddenly rang out sharply.

Bright red lights flickered on the bluestone wall.

Footsteps were heard.

The large hall could accommodate thousands of people, but all exits were instantly closed off. The energy fluctuations of the tactical deployment circulated. Suddenly, Li Mu and Su Cuo were completely besieged by countless black figures who surged into the hall from all directions.

At the same time, gears rotated and bowl-sized muzzles appeared on the turrets of the spiraling stone stairs above their heads. The sounds of bowstrings being pulled taut were also heard.

The reaction and fast defense definitely suggested that these had all been prepared beforehand.

Su Cuo became nervous in an instant.

A loud laugh was heard from above.

“Ha ha ha. Welcome to the trap. Li Mu, you are too arrogant and stupid. You made such a big stir in Dunhuang. How could we not take precautions against you? Your whereabouts have been under our surveillance since you left Dunhuang. The killing trap has been prepared for you. Now, there’s no way to escape.”

The vice president slowly floated over the hollow building.

Superiors and experts of the Cultivators’ Association also showed up.

At this moment, the whole Zhongtian building turned into a horrible killing trap. Thousands of cultivators appeared from all over the place, covering all the floors. Li Mu and Su Cuo were beleaguered by them.
