Chen Hua of the Six Alliance was shocked when he saw Li Mu enter his office; his eyelids twitched.

He had actually seen Li Mu, heard about him being chased by more than a hundred martial artists, and even seen people killed by Li Mu.

To escape from over a hundred martial artists and have them standing right in front of you, it would be foolish to say you weren't afraid.

He didn't kneel down, thinking that meeting Li Mu meant certain death, so he might as well die standing up.

After listening to Chen Hua's welcoming remarks, Li Mu bypassed Chen Hua and sat down behind the desk.

"You seem like a sensible person. Tell me about it."

Li Mu looked at Chen Hua, who was still hunched over, and admired his character; he was much better than that pretentious Lu Dazhou.

"Chen Hua has offended Young Master Li. Please punish him."

Chen Hua knew Li Mu's purpose in coming here, but he didn't shift the blame onto his underling. He just felt that he had been tricked by the person behind the scenes.

After listening to Chen Hua's words, Li Mu felt that this person had some sense of responsibility, but what he wanted to hear was not the other party's admission of wrongdoing.

“That’s not what I want to hear. If that’s all you want to say, then there’s no need to continue.”

When Chen Hua heard Li Mu say that there was no need to continue, he immediately understood that if he didn't reveal some crucial information, he would die.

"Young Master Li, this time it was the Chen family of Yanjing and the Huo family of Yunnan who put pressure on us together. I was just caught up in the situation and had no choice but to comply. I apologize for the offense."

When Li Mu heard about the Chen family of Yanjing and the Huo family of Yun Province, he didn't even blink and gestured for Chen Hua to continue.

This Chen Hua is quite a shrew; he not only revealed the identities of these two families, but also disclosed all the forces behind them.

.

Chen Hua knew very well that if he wanted to survive with Li Mu, he couldn't play games.

He understood even more clearly that he had most likely been tricked by these people, and since he had been tricked, there was no need for him to keep their secret.

He wanted to fight to live, not only for himself and his family, but also for the families of his brothers.

If he dies, it will implicate too many people.

The first time he refused to suppress the Li family of Jiangcheng was because he had met Li Mu at the martial arts tournament.

Moreover, he told the people behind Li Mu some things about him before he declined to suppress the Li family.

The second time those people asked him to investigate Li Mu's fate, it was only after they repeatedly assured him.

Only after confirming that Li Mu was most likely dead did he send two of his underlings to investigate.

Before the two of them went, he specifically instructed them to simply pass by the door and check if anyone was home.

If you're sure someone's home, stay away and see if the person coming out is Li Mu.

As Chen Hua continued his confession, almost revealing how many mistresses his associates had, he couldn't bear to listen any longer.

Li Mu watched as this guy didn't beg for mercy, but kept talking, which was a way of begging for survival.

Having learned what he wanted to know, Li Mu originally planned to simply kill Chen Hua to settle the matter.

Suddenly, I felt that if I just kept killing like this, who knows what kind of gang would pop up next time? I can't keep killing indefinitely.

At the same time, he admired Chen Hua, a man of the underworld, and planned to give him a chance.

"You are indeed a smart person, but being smart doesn't mean you shouldn't die. It all depends on how you do it."

.

"Young Master Li, I will withdraw from the Hedao Club starting tomorrow, and then withdraw from all other matters as well."

Also, although I haven't had much contact with the people behind me, I've collected a considerable amount of evidence.

"As long as you, Young Master Li, are satisfied, I can release him anytime. I can also send people secretly to Yanjing and Yunnan Province..."

Listen carefully to what Li Mugang said, and Chen Hua immediately expressed his opinion after Li Mugang finished speaking, saying one sentence after another.

Li Mu interrupted the guy before he could finish speaking:

"You don't need to worry about Yunnan Province and Beijing; I'll take care of that."

I have no interest in the people behind you. If I run into them, I'll just deal with them easily.

As for this clubhouse, I think it could be developed into a nursing home or a tourist reception center.

Stop doing those messy, shady things.

I don't really know how to do it either, you figure it out.

"Young Master Li, I know what to do. If there is anything else that requires Chen Hua's assistance, please give the order."

After hearing what Li Mu said, Chen Hua knew that he probably wouldn't die. He then expressed his determination, his tone somewhat obsequious.

"Alright, that's enough. I think you're a good person. If you go and become someone's lackey, it'll be beneath you."

Whether to kill Chen Hua or not is entirely up to Li Mu.

Li Mu was fairly satisfied with Chen Hua; he was quick-witted and opportunistic, so he could keep him around.

He believed that someone who could see clearly between life and death would not allow himself to cause trouble again.

As the old saying goes, the best strategy is to subdue the enemy without fighting.

Li Mu didn't want to waste any more time here, so he got up and left as Chen Hua bowed deeply to see him off.

Every cultivator is a martial artist, and as a martial artist himself, Li Mu's first impression of Chen Hua was not bad.

Li Mu left Qinglong Residence, stepped onto his flying sword, and vanished in a flash.

Chen Hua watched Li Mu disappear in an instant, his heart filled with shock. He bowed deeply in the direction Li Mu had vanished, refusing to retreat.

.

After returning home, Li Mu packed his belongings and began meditating and cultivating, waiting for dawn to travel to Xiangzhou.

After daybreak, Li Mu felt refreshed and relaxed. He left the villa, boarded his flying sword, and headed towards Xiangzhou.

Half an hour later, Li Mu arrived in Xiangzhou on his flying sword. Having a flying sword made travel much more convenient.

This was Li Mu's first time controlling a flying sword. As he became more familiar with the control and his cultivation level increased, the flying sword would become even faster.

Last time I sent Lin Hongluan to Xiangzhou, it was just a quick visit without stopping.

After falling from the flying sword, Li Mu had to find a phone to contact Lin Hongluan first.

Li Mu had no concept of cell phones. In this world, everyone uses cell phones, and he didn't, which seemed a bit strange.

After searching for a while without finding a public phone, Li Mu had no choice but to go into a mobile phone store and buy a phone.

After buying the phone, to save himself the trouble, he immediately topped up his phone credit with 50,000 yuan.

A phone that cost three or four thousand yuan was charged with 50,000 yuan in phone credit, leaving the saleswoman stunned for a long time.

Li Mu acted on impulse, not caring about what others thought, and was unaware that the saleswoman had already categorized him as a pretentious show-off.

After finishing his phone call with Lin Hongluan, Li Mu waited nearby as she instructed.

More than ten minutes later, an electric car pulled up in front of Li Mu, and Li Mu met Lin Hongluan.

Before them stood a healthy Lin Hongluan, her dark eyes sparkling with spring, her pupils like autumn water, and her naturally alluring figure exuding an indescribable charm.

Looking at Lin Hongluan, who greeted him with a smile, Li Mu instantly noticed a trace of sorrow in her eyes.

This hint of melancholy suggests that Lin Hongluan has encountered something unpleasant or difficult.

Li Mu didn't rush to ask Lin Hongluan. If he asked about something unpleasant and Lin Hongluan didn't want to talk about it, it would be too abrupt.

After the two got into the car, aside from exchanging a few polite words, they ran out of things to talk about for a while.

Although we've spent some time together and gotten to know each other a bit, we haven't reached the point where we can talk about anything.

As the hostess, Lin Hongluan had to show proper politeness and took Li Mu to a time-honored rice noodle shop.
