Li Mu cultivated for tens of thousands of years, finally becoming the number one Immortal Emperor in the Imm...

Chapter 969: Li Mu is the mastermind?

At this moment, Zhang Jingxuan woke up slowly, and as soon as he woke up, he shouted: "You bastards! How dare you harm me! When our Palace Master comes to attack us one day, we will definitely settle accounts with you!"

Seeing this, Zhang Xu looked at Zhang Jingxuan with some disgust, and then cast a look at Gong Hao.

Gong Hao understood, and walked forward with courage, ready to knock Zhang Jingxuan unconscious with one blow.

However, Wu Qing quickly stopped him: "Wait!"

"What's the name of the Palace Master you just mentioned?"

Wu Qing asked Zhang Jingxuan, and at the same time he had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"Haha, kid, listen carefully, our palace master is Li Mu, the 9th level Hongmeng Immortal Ancestor and the Lord of the Lingxiao Universe!" Zhang Jingxuan raised his head and said in a loud voice.

"Li Mu! It's Li Mu again!" Wu Qing took a few steps back in horror.

"What Li Mu? What's going on?" Zhang Xu frowned.

"Haha~! It seems that you have some knowledge. You actually know our palace master. If that's the case, why don't you let me go!" Zhang Jingxuan laughed.

Wu Qing calmed himself down, glanced at Zhang Jingxuan with a complicated expression, and then whispered to Zhang Xu: "Mr. Zhang, I suspect that the reason why your son fell into madness was not accidental."

Zhang Xu raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "So, someone is targeting my Zhang family?"

Wu Qing hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know if it's targeting the Zhang family, but what I can confirm is that you are not the only victim."

"Are you saying that the kid from the Chen family was also harmed by someone?" Zhang Xu said.

Wu Qing nodded and said solemnly, "The eldest son of the Chen family, Chen Sihao, also fell ill earlier today. His symptoms are similar to those of Master Zhang. The most important thing is that they also mentioned a person named 'Li Mu', and both of them called him 'Palace Master'."

Since Zhang Xu has already guessed what happened to Chen Sihao and the situation is so urgent, there is no need for him to hide it any longer.

"You mean, the man named 'Li Mu' is the mastermind behind all this?" Zhang Xu narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice.

"This is just my guess, Mr. Zhang. You need to judge for yourself whether it is true or not." Wu Qing said.

Zhang Xu's face turned grim upon hearing this. He turned to Gong Hao and ordered, "Let the people stationed in Chen's house verify this matter."

"Mr. Zhang, I can't help you with this matter. If it's all right, I'll take my leave first." Wu Qing said to Zhang Xu.

Zhang Xu nodded and said, "Go ahead. Remember, keep your mouth shut!"

"I understand. Thank you, Mr. Zhang." Wu Qing was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something. He quickly took out the bank card he had just received and handed it to Zhang Xu: "Mr. Zhang, you see I haven't been able to help much. I really feel ashamed to receive so much consultation fee from you."

This money was used by Zhang Xu to bribe him to reveal information about the Chen family. How could he dare to take this money now?

Although he did mention Chen Sihao just now, that was a special case. If he really accepted the money, he would have no way to defend himself, and the people of the Chen family would not let him off easily either.

"How can I take back the money I gave you?" Zhang Xu sneered, "Take it! Aren't you afraid that the Chen family will hold you accountable? Don't worry, I can find out about Chen Sihao even if you don't tell me. This money is your reward for providing me with the important clue about my grandson's murder."

Wu Qing smiled bitterly upon hearing this, and reluctantly took back the bank card. He bowed to Zhang Xu again, and then quickly left this place of trouble.

"Hey! Boy, why are you running? Hurry up and capture these rebels. I promise that not only will I not punish you, but I will also make good use of you in the future!" Zhang Jingxuan shouted anxiously when he saw Wu Qing's back leaving.

Just now, Zhang Xu and his companions were quite far away from him and spoke in a low voice, so he couldn't hear clearly what they were saying.

This also made Zhang Jingxuan feel very aggrieved. He, the dignified Chaos Immortal Ancestor, had fallen to the point where he had no consciousness and his facial features were weak.

"What are you howling for? I don't know how a loser like you could have been tricked together with that kid from the Chen family. Chen Sihao is at least an independent person, but what about you? A loser! I don't know what the people behind you are trying to do!" Zhang Xu yelled, and then he didn't want to be defiled by Zhang Jingxuan, so he turned around and left.

However, Zhang Jingxuan's eyes lit up after being yelled at by Zhang Xu, and he murmured, "Chen Sihao! Yes, I can go find Deputy Palace Master Chen!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Jingxuan kicked his legs and prepared to get up, but his body was tied tightly with several belts and he could not move at all.

"Someone, come and untie me! I want to get out!" Zhang Jingxuan shouted.

However, even though he shouted at the top of his lungs, he received no response.

…………

Let’s talk about Wu Qing again. He had been busy all day and it was already past 1 a.m. when he returned home from Zhang’s house. However, after finally taking a shower with his tired body, he lay on the bed but he was not sleepy at all.

At this moment, he was struggling with his inner thoughts. He was debating whether or not to report Zhang Jingxuan's affairs to the Chen family. It was obvious that what happened to Chen Sihao and Zhang Jingxuan was not simple. There might be a big conspiracy behind it. If he did not report it to the Chen family in time, if a disaster occurred, his whole family would probably suffer. However, if he told the Chen family about Zhang Jingxuan's affairs, he would offend the Zhang family.

On the one hand, there is the possibility of a catastrophic disaster that will wipe out the entire family, and on the other hand, there is the relatively minor disaster of offending the Zhang family and causing them to lose face. Wu Qing really couldn't make up his mind.

"Huh! If I had known earlier, I should have gone to Haidu for a medical consultation with Lao Huang and the others these days, so I wouldn't have encountered all these bad things!" Wu Qing sighed deeply.
