Little Chen, it seems you're starting to accept being a pawn!
The moment the communication artifact connected, an old man's phantom appeared out of thin air in the open space between the group.
The old man was hunched over like an old farmer in the fields. His gray-white cloth robe was loosely draped over his body, with a few mud stains on the hem. He looked like an ordinary old man who had just returned from the vegetable garden.
His wrinkled face wore a kind smile, but beneath his sparse white eyebrows lay a pair of unsettling eyes.
The left eye reflects the dark blue vortex of a collapsing galaxy, while the right eye leaps with the brilliant aurora of a newly born nebula, and deep within the pupil, countless light and shadows of the birth and death of different planes flow.
When he raised his withered fingers to stroke his beard, the skin on his wrist, which slipped down from his sleeve, faintly revealed the veins of stars, as if the entire universe lay dormant within this aged body.
The strangest thing was that he had no aura of power whatsoever, and even his breathing was no different from that of an ordinary person, yet the Eternal Realm experts present instinctively felt as insignificant as dust.
"Lingling, were you looking for me earlier? I was busy with farm work. I'll get back to you when I'm done," Li Muchen said with a kind smile.
Li Wensong glanced at Li Muchen carefully and swallowed hard.
Is this what a peak Eternal Realm expert looks like?
Do you farm on a regular basis?
Chen Lingling quickly cupped her hands in greeting: "Senior Li, there is something I need to verify with you!"
"What is it? And who are these people over there?" Li Muchen asked with a smile.
Li Wensong smiled generously and said, "Junior Li Wensong greets Senior Li!"
He was still unsure whether Li Muchen was Lu Qingan's pawn, after all, he was a peak Eternal Realm expert, so he still had to be respectful.
However, he's not bad either!
He is the number one pawn of a peak Eternal Realm expert who has mastered the rules of cause and effect!
So just be confident and generous!
"Well, not bad, kid. You're at the peak of the Dominator Realm, yet you act quite poised and confident in front of me." Li Muchen stroked his beard and smiled.
Lianxin, Qian Xiuzhu, and the others also bowed and introduced themselves, but they were a little reserved when they spoke because Li Muchen was a peak Eternal Realm expert.
This made Li Muchen realize that Li Wensong was no ordinary person.
"Lingling, tell me, what do you need to verify?" Li Muchen asked.
Chen Lingling quickly said, "I've heard you say that you know a peak Eternal Realm expert who has mastered the rules of cause and effect! I wonder if the peak Eternal Realm expert you know who has mastered the rules of cause and effect is named Lu Qing'an, and looks something like this?"
Chen Lingling used her cultivation to depict the portrait that Li Wensong had just shown, her gaze fixed intently on Li Muchen.
As long as Li Muchen nods, she'll know what to do next!
Quickly change your attitude and try your best to get on this big shot's good side!
This powerful figure can definitely help her break through to the late stage of the Eternal Realm!
It's even possible that they'll break through to the peak of the Eternal Realm!!!
Li Muchen was stunned for a moment when he heard Chen Lingling's words.
Forehead......
He carefully examined the portrait Chen Lingling had shown him and remained silent.
"Lingling, why are you suddenly asking about this?" After Li Muchen clearly saw Lu Qingan's portrait, he still had a smile on his face, but the smile seemed a little different from before.
Chen Lingling had been watching Li Muchen's expression the whole time. When she heard his question, she didn't hesitate and told him what had just happened.
"This fellow Daoist said that I am a pawn, and I need to confirm this. Since you know one of the peak Eternal Realm experts who has mastered the rules of cause and effect, you probably also know the other one, right? So, is this person a peak Eternal Realm expert who has mastered the rules of cause and effect?"
She needs Li Muchen to admit it himself.
Li Muchen glanced at Lu Qingan's portrait again, then smiled wryly, "Lingling, alright, I won't lie to you anymore. Actually, this old man has some flaws too; I sometimes tell little lies... How could I possibly know any peak Eternal Realm expert who controls the rules of cause and effect... I just had a couple of drinks and chatted with you a bit..."
This statement caught everyone present completely off guard.
Chen Lingling was so overwhelmed that she was completely disoriented and unable to recover.
Senior Li, you...
"Senior, you, you're just teasing me now, aren't you?" Chen Lingling's lips twitched as she asked.
Li Muchen's eyes darted around, giving off the impression of a mischievous old man: "The old guys who control the rules of cause and effect are all very cunning and well-hidden. Moreover, they all existed since the beginning of time. Not to mention me, many of the peak Eternal Realm old guys I know are unsure who is... But I'm not exactly lying, am I? Perhaps one of the old guys I know is playing dumb to deceive others, unwilling to reveal his identity..."
After those words, everyone fell silent.
