The master comes down the mountain: I don’t want to be a son-in-law

Li Muchen frowned but didn't say anything.

Xiang Wanqing said angrily: "You are talking nonsense, why would his father want to destroy his own family?"

"Haha, because his father Li Yunhua is the greatest genius of all time, even the heavens are jealous of his talent, so he devised such a scheme to deceive the heavens, and even I was deceived. Not only did he steal the beams and replace the pillars, but he also borrowed the power of heaven to kill all his clones."

"What a shame! No matter how powerful he is, as long as he is human, he will definitely have flaws. He was a playboy all his life, and finally ruined it because of a woman. For that woman, he was willing to give up his perfect golden body. If not for this, I really can't do anything to him!"

Li Muchen's heart was pounding, and he asked, "Where are they?"

The huge shadow of Pluto in the boundless void laughed strangely, and the laughter was everywhere like his shadow.

“Hehehehe… kid, stop dreaming. You won’t be able to see them. You will never be able to see them in your lifetime… You have no way to escape this catastrophe. Heaven won’t help you. You can’t even leave this place of wrongful death… You will be trapped here forever. You will feel wronged and resentful. The longer time goes by, the stronger your hatred will be, and it will make the wall of wronged souls in this city of wrongful death even stronger…”

"Don't forget, this is just my clone. I will go to Shen Guanghai to find you."

“If you don’t kill all your clones, don’t even think about sinking into the sea of ​​light! Don’t think you are so powerful just because you have established your own way, and don’t really think of yourself as the reincarnation of the devil. If you don’t kill all your clones, your real body will be as fragile as an ant, and I can crush you to death at any time...hahahaha..."

Pluto laughed loudly, but suddenly stopped laughing.

"Of course, I won't crush you to death. My last clone in the world is still waiting for you to help me kill it. In this world, you seem to be the only one who can kill my clone..."

"What if I don't kill him?"

"If you don't kill him, the entire Linhuang Town will become a city of wronged death... hehehehe..."

Pluto's voice gradually faded away, and the boundless and huge shadow also disappeared into the darkness.

……

The setting sun shines on the long street, and the ancient bluestone slabs seem to be covered with sunset glow, emitting a moist and colorful light.

The evening in Linhuang Town is particularly quiet. The shops close early, and occasionally pedestrians walk timidly through the streets, quickly disappearing into the dim twilight.

The shadow of the mountain surged in from the west like an inky tide, flooding the entire town.

Darkness suddenly enveloped this small world, and the terrifyingly low starry sky was like countless open demon eyes, staring at the living beings here.

Lantian was still waiting for Li Muchen's response. She answered the question about the illusion of life and death. This was not showing off her knowledge, but her true feelings. Although she did not have much experience, she had extraordinary understanding.

She thought the master would at least give her some praise, but she waited until nightfall and the master never spoke.

She saw that Li Muchen's face was solemn and he frowned from time to time. His eyes were unfocused, as if they penetrated the void and fell into the depths of the universe.

"Master, did I...did I say something wrong?" she asked carefully.

After a long time, Li Muchen recovered and gently pinched the little girl's nose: "You are not wrong, life and death are false, and the Tao is in our lives."

"Why was Master unhappy just now?"

"I'm not unhappy!"

"Then why are you like this... like this..."

Lantian imitated Li Muchen's frowning face, making faces and looking mischievous.

Li Muchen laughed loudly: "Master is just wandering in his mind."

"Wandering in the spirit?" Lan Tian looked longing, "Master, I also want to travel in the spirit of the West Sea!"

Li Muchen smiled and said, "The spirit is inside, not outside. It is better to hide inside than to travel outside. If you put the heaven, earth and universe into your heart, the spirit will not need to travel outside, and you can proudly travel to the West Sea and gallop across the mountains and rivers."

Lantian blinked and turned to look out the window.

It was already very dark outside the window. Someone's dog barked a few times, and then the sound of dogs barking could be heard one after another in the town.

Xie Hongling saw that the master and disciple were talking endlessly and seemed to have forgotten to treat the person on the bed. She was embarrassed to interrupt them, so she took advantage of Lantian looking out the window and thinking and said:

"Mr. Li, can this man be saved?"

"Of course."

Li Muchen waved his hand lightly, and a faint glow passed over the patient's body, and the complexion on his face immediately improved.

"Ah, it's really magical!" Xie Hongling said in amazement.

"I have already removed the aura of death from his body. Next, all you have to do is give him the medicine according to the prescription prescribed by Grandma Xie."

In fact, Li Muchen could have made the patient stand up with just a wave of his hand, but he didn't do so. Firstly, it was unnecessary, and secondly, he wanted to save face for Grandma Xie.

"Yes!" Xie Hongling agreed, but still said with some worry, "Mr. Li, there are more than one such patients recently. The initial symptoms were mild and we cured them, but then they became more and more serious. This one is the most serious. If this continues, will there be more serious patients?"

Li Muchen nodded and said, "Yes, if the source of the dark energy is not removed, there will be more and more patients, and the symptoms will become more and more serious. It is very likely that the entire Linhuang Town will face a disaster."

"What should we do then?" Xie Hongling asked worriedly.

"It doesn't matter. This disaster is aimed at me. I will solve it. Tell me, how were these patients found and where have they been?"

"Among these people, there are merchants, herbalists, and travel anchors. Apart from our Linhuang Town, the only place they have been to together is the Wasteland. Granny Xie also thinks there may be something wrong in the Wasteland, so she has notified the people in the town not to enter the swamp recently, and also sent the eldest sister to investigate the Wasteland."

"I understand." Li Muchen nodded. "Lantian, you accompanied me to the deserted swamp last time. Are you willing to go with me this time?"

"Of course I am willing!" Lantian jumped for joy, "Master, what are we going to do this time?"

"We're going to... kill a shadow."

"Shadow? What shadow?"

"A shadow from another world. He asked me to kill him, so I will kill him."

"Then when do we leave?"

"Now."

After Li Muchen finished speaking, he took Lantian's hand, nodded at Xie Hongling, and took a step forward.

The two people disappeared into the room.

Lantian just felt dazed, and the scenery in front of him changed.

The Western Zhou Dynasty is a vast expanse of black mountains, with low, bright stars overhead and a clear stream beside it, stretching far into the distance.

Lantian stared at the stream in a daze.

Suddenly he exclaimed: "I remember now, this is the crack you cut with your sword when we came here last time!"

Li Muchen nodded encouragingly.

He was very satisfied with Lantian's spiritual perception and memory.

This is the crack that appeared in the ground when I first activated the sword energy when I got the Xuanming Sword in the secret realm last time.

Unfortunately, this was not due to Li Muchen’s powerful magic. He did not have such ability at that time.

That's because the Xuanming Sword has been sealed for too long and has accumulated too much energy.

The ancient sword sees the light of day again, and its power is so strong that it can break through three thousand miles!

Li Muchen took out the Xuanming Sword, held it in his hand, and once again felt the Xuanming Energy coming from outside the dark realm.

Black fire ignited in his palm and burned along the sword.

Black light illuminates the night.

At the same time, a beam of white light appeared above his head, warm and moist, forming the shape of a sword, which was extremely dazzling in the boundless black light.
