The Divine Martial Stars

Chapter 495 Holy Speech Sect

There was no way to not be scared.

The power Li Mu revealed was like that of a ghost or a God.

What happened then couldn’t be explained by martial arts. So the hot girl from the Li family looked at Li Mu and the word ‘monster’ was the only word left in her brain.

The bodyguards on the ground were all groaning and crying miserably.

A pungent, bloody smell spread in the air.

The masters standing by the gate of Randeng Temple all looked at the bright teenager in Nike sports clothes and felt like they were homeless spirits who were standing by the door of hell, feeling weak and helpless. The incredible horror swallowed them.

If the opponent was just good at kung fu, they might still encourage themselves to keep fighting.

But now it seemed that it was already beyond the range of kung fu.

The strong man with a black box on his back seemed to have lost the desire to fight completely.

“Answering the question I just asked can save you from death.”

Li Mu opened his mouth again.

This time, no one dared to treat his words casually.

From the early morning, the villagers in Randengsi Village kept looking in the direction of the Ancient Temple.

It was because the news had already got out that several groups of people went to the mountain.

None of them seemed to be kind.

Not long before, a villager asked to go up there to have a look but he was stopped by a man dressed in black with dark glasses. The man in black softly but firmly said that the mountain was temporarily closed because of an event and no one was allowed to go up. Even Grandpa Zhang and a few others who were faithful to the old faker wanted to go up under the cover of their old ages because they were worried about Li Mu, but they were still taken down the hill by force.

After half of the day, there was no news and the village was horribly quiet. But the villagers were still worried.

“They’re coming against Xiaomu.”

“I’m afraid they are in the same group as the people who came several years ago.”

“No, Grandpa Zhou, you go assemble the force in the village and get prepared. If he can’t defeat them, we can rush up there. No matter what, we can’t let Xiaomu get hurt.”

“Yeah, you’re right. The Shaozu Temple belongs to our Randengsi Village. The outsiders are too arrogant to forbid us from going up. Xiaomu is a pure kid. Though Master Li is gone, we can’t forget his kindness to us for all these years.”

The old men were all indignant.

At the moment, there came the sound of cars on the cement roads of the village.

There were four dark green SUVs, two were at the front and another two were behind. In the middle was a tan bus. They went through the middle of the village and the windows were all covered firmly by the curtains. No one could see what was inside.

“Are those cars from the army?”

“Maybe they are leaders from Second Cannon. There is a Second Cannon Base in the city.”

A group of men who were smoking, crouched on a stone, and watched the cars go up the mountain.

In the bus.

“Officer, it’s Randeng Temple up there which is an ancient temple and has a long history. When Master Li and his grandson were there, the temple was still bustling, but then they left and the temple was gradually deserted. I’ve heard that it’s going to collapse soon. And it’s said by the villagers that it’s haunted by ghosts...”

Su Hanwei hurriedly introduced the place a bit.

Fan Zu’ang nodded, not saying anything.

This time they went to Randeng Temple, they had no time to associate ahead of time because they had a tight schedule. They might not have the chance to meet Li Mu, but he would try more times just like the way Liu Bei visited Zhuge Liang’s residence three times. It wouldn’t be a problem even if he had to live in Baoji City for some time.

The situation in the Gobi under Qilian Mountain was already tense. Although the country was powerful, it was tough for it to handle the pressure from all the developed countries at the same time. There were already sacrifices. If it went on like that, it would get worse and worse.

If this Li Mu was really so powerful like Su Cuo and Song Changlin had said, he would be a national hero.

A national hero must be treated with honor.

Then, after a while, the SUV in the front suddenly stopped.

A soldier came to report, “Officer, we can’t go up.”

“What’s wrong? Is the road damaged?” Su Cuo asked.

The soldier looked awkward and said, “The road isn’t damaged and there is nothing on the road. But the car just can’t get through and we’re not aware of the reason. It looks like we have been stopped by something invisible...”

How could it be so strange?

Su Hanwei said without thinking, “Damn, have we run into a ghost?”

Su Cuo took a look at him and said, “Stop talking.”

Su Hanwei also knew he had said the wrong words and quickly stepped to the side.

Fan Zu’ang smiled and said, “Well, that’s nothing to be worried about. Let’s get down and have a look.”

They all came to the front of the car and saw a weird scene—

The road ahead was flat with no obstacles, but the SUV just couldn’t move even a bit with enough gas. The tire badly screeched on the hard road and made a harsh sound. A pungent scorched smell spread...

There seemed to be something invisible that blocked the way.

A bright light shone in Fan Zu’ang’s eyes.

“Stop the car. Get back,” he ordered.

Then he walked up and touched something in the air.

A strange thing happened.

Then circles of transparent waves centralized in his palm and moved apart in the air like a paddle moving through the still surface of a lake.

The waves disappeared suddenly.

Fan Zu’ang looked surprised, saying, “It’s a tactical deployment.... It’s really a tactical deployment. Since he can conduct a tactical deployment in such a place, this Li Mu must be a powerful master. He must have entered the supreme level. We’re right to be here.”

He stood outside of this tactical deployment. Then he slightly opened his mouth as if he was whispering.

Nobody heard what he said.

But inside this tactical deployment, by the gate of Randeng Temple, a polite voice came, “Master Fan Zu’ang from the Holy Speech Sect, pleased to meet Li Mu.”

Li Mu heard the voice after he had interrogated the people from Wulin.

“Wow, voice can get in. The car stopped outside is a car from the army. This Fan Zu’ang seems to be a martial artist. And there is Su Cuo and Song Changlin... they came here so quickly.”

There was a smile on Li Mu’s face.

The whole Shaozu Mountain was under his eyes and the arrival of Fan Zu’ang and his friends would be no exception.

To Li Mu’s surprise, this military man who claimed to be a disciple of the Holy Speech Sect was also studied in gas and was quite powerful. He was almost at the level of a Great Master in the Divine Land... It was terrific. After all, the earth had been at the end of Tao and had no Spiritual Qi. Even now, there was only little of it.

There was curiosity in Li Mu’s heart.

“Come in.”

With a stir of his mind, he retrieved the tactical deployment.

He had conducted tactical deployments before just to get rid of sound in case the noise of fighting and guns would bother the villagers. Now that it was over, it was unnecessary.

On the road two miles away.

“Come in.”

A sound that seemed to be coming from heaven clearly reached everyone’s ears.

Then a circle of waves shone in the air and the invisible force which blocked the way disappeared. The scene was like a fairy tale.

Su Hanwei was taken aback.

Su Cuo and Song Changlin had seen how powerful Li Mu could be before, so they weren’t disturbed. As for the other special soldiers, their nerves were like steel and iron after so much training. They wouldn’t make a fuss no matter how strange the scene looked.

A soldier wanted to drive on but Fan Zu’ang shook his head and said, “You’re all supposed to be waiting right here. Mr. Su and Mr. Song, follow me. We can walk up the mountain.” After a short pause, he continued, “Director General Su, you can go with us.”

The four of them walked for about ten minutes before they arrived at the gate of Randeng Temple.

“This is...” Song Changlin was greatly shocked at first. Then he saw the corpses on the ground and those bodyguards in black who had passed out. There were also some people from Wulin, including monks, Taoists, and young girls.

A sad atmosphere spread all around the gate of the temple.

Su Hanwei felt like there was a big hammer falling down on his heart and his brain went blank. It was an incident, a huge incident. So many people died under his rule and it was witnessed by the officer. What should he do?

He was just an ordinary person and knew nothing about Wulin.

The was no expression on the female officer, Su Cuo’s, face.

She had seen more horrible and miserable scenes in the Divine Land. Besides, Li Mu was no ordinary guy. According to the legend in the Divine Land, he dared to kill a royal member. So it wouldn’t be too surprising that Li Mu killed someone who messed up with him sooner or later.

The only thing that made the beautiful female officer surprised was that the time Li Mu started killing was a bit earlier than she had imagined.

She took a look at the officer by her side and didn’t say anything.

But Fan Zu’ang looked very calm.

He didn’t even take a look at the people from Wulin who had been terribly injured. Li Mu was the only one in his eyes.

“He is really a national hero, so deep and unpredictable like a high mountain and the great sea.”

Fan Zu’ang was amazed but also secretly excited.

He was in a respected position and had inherited from Wulin. So he had better experience and horizon than ordinary men from Wulin. He could see from the first sight that the young man whose power didn’t fluctuate at all was really fierce like a dragon in the lake or a sleeping tiger by the mountain.

“This is commander Fan from the National Strategic Department. He wants to... talk to Xiaomu in person.” The beautiful female officer named Su Cuo came up to introduce themselves. She hesitated in her words but she called Li Mu as Xiaomu at last. She didn’t want to draw each other apart.

Li Mu nodded, saying, “You’re not coming at a proper time. There are bad guests here. Let me take care of them first.”

Then, before Fan Zu’ang could say anything, he turned around to look at those from Wulin and said, “I don’t kill you today for the sake that you just answered my questions honestly. Tell everyone for me that anyone from Wulin who dares to step in Randeng Temple will be killed with no exception. And anyone who dares to behave evilly in Baoji City will be killed with no mercy.”

Then he waved his hand.

A gust of invisible force rushed out and the corpses which had been on the ground instantly disappeared like thin snow under the hot sun. And the blood on the ground vanished too as if the horrifying slaughter hadn’t even existed.

The hot girl from the Li family, the tall man with a black box on his back and all the others didn’t dare to say a word. They just trembled. Even the bodyguards who were struggling and groaning on the ground escaped as soon as they could.

Li Mu took a look at Fan Zu’ang and the other people and raised his hand, saying, “Please.”

They walked into the Randeng Temple.

Fan Zu’ang had even higher expectations of the young man. He hurriedly followed.

Su Cuo and the other two people followed behind.

By then, Su Hanwei who was the director-general of the police station in Gaoxin District, was completely confused. So many people died but the troop officer looked as if nothing was wrong. And how did the corpses disappear?

What happened today was like a strange dream to him. It was so unbelievable that he had secretly pinched his thigh many times. But as a result, he felt actual pain, which was telling him that it wasn’t a dream.
