Chapter 74: Bringing Tong Lao to Order Qiu Shui
They probably died before they could accomplish their mission.
He originally wanted to attack Lingjiu Palace, but he ran into a grand master here.
In front of the Grand Master, they are like ants!
Fear and despair spread in their hearts.
Now, not only are they going to die, but they can't even get their final revenge.
"Who exactly is the senior?"
Zhuo Bufan stared at Zhao Mu vigilantly, but the sword in his hand was trembling slightly.
"Just a passerby!" Zhao Mu glanced at everyone.
"I don't care what you want to do, I want to take this person away!"
Zhao Mu pointed at the little girl beside him.
Hearing this, Zhuo Bufan felt relieved.
As long as Zhao Mu is not here to stop them, it will be fine. As for this girl, she is originally an insignificant person.
"Since you have made such a request, we dare not disobey you. You can just take her away! We will not stop you!"
Zhuo Bufan bowed and saluted. Facing the grandmaster, he did not have the courage to take action.
"The life and death talismans on you are not unsolvable!" Zhao Mu saw that everyone was so understanding and couldn't help but comfort them.
"If you trust me, you can go to Yancheng and wait. When I come back, I will definitely help you unlock the life and death talisman!"
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
After a brief silence, Zhuo Bufan spoke first.
"Is what the senior said true?"
For many years, they have been tortured by the Life and Death Talisman. Their current appearance, neither human nor ghost, is all caused by the Life and Death Talisman.
They fantasized countless times about releasing the control of the Life and Death Talisman, but the solution to the Talisman was in the hands of the Child-Fairy of Tianshan.
She was a demon who killed people without blinking an eye. They didn't dare to hope that the Child-Fairy of Tianshan would help them remove the talisman of life and death.
It is precisely because of this that they are determined to fight to the death today.
But at this moment, hearing what Zhao Mu said, hope was rekindled in their hearts.
"Of course it's true!"
Zhao Mu spoke softly. Although these people were a motley crowd, they were numerous.
The total number of people and horses in the thirty-six caves and seventy-two islands is at least tens of thousands.
Among them, there are many master-level experts like Zhuo Bufan.
If we can bring these people under our command, they will be a considerable force.
"I believe in you, senior!" Zhuo Bufan was silent for a moment, then looked up and said.
"I am willing to go to Yancheng and wait for you, Senior!"
"It's just that this life and death talisman needs an antidote every month, otherwise the poison will kill us. Now that Tong Lao is missing, I'm afraid we only have one month left to live!"
"It's okay, I will be back in half a month!" Zhao Mu naturally knew this.
After hearing this, Zhuo Bufan was no longer worried.
He believed in Zhao Mu only because Zhao Mu possessed the cultivation level of a grandmaster. Even if he did not know the solution to the Life and Death Talisman, he could forcibly remove the Life and Death Talisman by relying on his cultivation level of a grandmaster.
However, the great masters in the martial arts world are like mysterious dragons that can be found nowhere to be found. Besides, even if they find a great master, he may not be willing to help them.
Now that Zhao Mu has taken the initiative to propose it, they will naturally not let go of this opportunity!
The crowd cheered. They had just been ready to face death, but now they had rekindled their hope of life.
After a long time, Zhuo Bufan took this group of people away.
Now that they have a chance to survive, they naturally don't want to continue fighting with Lingjiu Palace.
It would be better to go to Yancheng early and wait.
After everyone left, Zhong Ling hurried forward to untie the restraints on Tianshan Tonglao.
Zhao Mu just watched quietly and did not stop it.
He knew that Tong Lao had lost all her cultivation and had no power to resist at all. Even if he let her go, she would not be able to escape.
"Thank you very much for saving my life! Xiaoyu has no way to repay you, so she is willing to be your slave and serve you!" Tong Lao stood up and bowed quickly.
You know what, she pretended pretty well.
Zhao Mu didn't have the heart to expose her.
"Your name is Xiaoyu?"
"That's right!" Xiaoyu said in a low voice.
"Then you will follow me from now on!" Zhao Mu chuckled. He was going to take this girl to Xixia anyway. Now that she took the initiative to follow him, it would save a lot of trouble.
Of course, he also understood the other party's thoughts.
Now that Tong Lao has lost all her cultivation, it would be dangerous for her to travel the world. But by following a great master like me, her safety would be guaranteed.
I can take advantage of this time to recover my cultivation.
With her strength of the late grandmaster, if she wanted to run, Zhao Mu really couldn't stop her, but unfortunately, Li Hanyi was by Zhao Mu's side!
However, although Zhao Mu knew everything clearly, Zhong Ling knew nothing.
Looking at the cute and clever little girl in front of her, Zhong Ling's girlish heart had already overflowed, and she began to ask Xiaoyu about her well-being.
Zhao Mu didn't care about these things. He could just use Zhong Ling to relax Xiaoyu's vigilance.
Continuing on the journey with Xiaoyu, Zhao Mu and his companions obviously sped up their progress. After all, those people in the Thirty-Six Caves were still waiting for him to save their lives!
After dealing with the affairs of Western Xia, he still had to go to the Qinglong Society.
After delaying Gongzi Yu for so long, that guy must be getting impatient!
On the way, Zhao Mu arranged for Li Hanyi to keep an eye on Xiaoyu.
The Child-Fairy of Tianshan practices the Changchun Kung Fu which can make people eternally young. However, every ten years, she needs to give up her Kung Fu and return to youth, otherwise she will explode and die.
Now is the time for her to unload her power.
Without her cultivation, her situation became dangerous, so she pretended to be missing, but she didn't want to be caught by Boss Wu and his gang.
Fortunately, it doesn't take long to recover.
In just two days, she had recovered to Grandmaster perfection.
Looking at Zhao Mu who was standing in the distance with a leisurely look on his face, Xiaoyu's eyes revealed a deep malice.
These two days, Zhao Mu really treated her like a servant, which made her remember Zhao Mu in her heart.
Just wait until my cultivation level recovers and then I will kill this guy first.
Xiaoyu stared at Zhao Mu's back fiercely, but she didn't realize that there was a pair of eyes behind her, quietly staring at her.
A few days later, everyone arrived in the territory of Western Xia.
A few people were planning to find a place to rest when Ye Erniang came over.
Ever since they parted in Wanjie Valley, Duan Yanqing had been focusing all his attention on Duan Yu.
The three of them were also driven back by Duan Yanqing.
As masters of Xixia Yipintang, they had ears and eyes all over Xixia, and they had received the news the moment Zhao Mu arrived.
Ye Erniang rushed over immediately.
"Your Highness, my brother has arranged for us to follow your orders!"
"I have prepared a residence for Your Highness, please follow me!"
Ye Erniang brought Zhao Mu to a villa.
Yipintang is directly under the jurisdiction of Li Qiushui and has an extraordinary status in Western Xia.
The residence they prepared for Zhao Mu was also right next to the imperial palace.
In the distance, there are high walls and deep courtyards, which can be seen by looking up.
"Your Highness, please rest here first. If you need anything, just let me know!"
After Ye Erniang finished speaking, she was about to turn around and leave, but Zhao Mu stopped her.
"Please inform the Queen Mother for me and tell her that Zhao Mu from Liyang wants to see you!"
