Chapter 234 Playing Both Sides Well



Xu Mingyu clutched a storage bag, plopped down on the ground, heartbroken.

Seeing the old man weeping uncontrollably, looking utterly devastated, Li Mu didn't know how to comfort him.

Seeing the objects reminded Xu Mingyu of her brother, who had been sent here nine years ago and had not returned since.

Seeing my second brother's belongings on someone else now, knowing that he has passed away, I feel depressed and deeply saddened.

From this, it can be inferred that the Tianyan Sect seems to know something about the secret of the Xu family's teleportation array.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have blocked people coming out from inside again.

Although Li Mu had wiped out most of the experts of the Tianyan Sect, he did not know where their mountain gate was located.

The fact that the number of pursuers could be increased in a short time suggests that the Tianyan Sect's mountain gate is not far from the Xu family's teleportation array.

According to Xu Mingyu, the Xu family's teleportation array is activated every three years, and each activation occurs between August and October.

He was discovered only a few miles after he came out of the teleportation array.

As a martial artist, being blocked without cause is definitely a deliberate provocation, and a fight between the two sides is inevitable.

However, not wanting to cause trouble, he didn't kill anyone, which instead attracted even more people to hunt him down.

Judging from Xu Mingyu's qi and blood, Li Mu realized that although they were all Heavenly Realm martial artists, Xu Mingyu was much stronger than Sun Xiao and the others.

Because there were too many people on the other side, and the patriarch of the Tianyan Sect was hiding in the shadows, he had no choice but to flee.

After a period of sadness, Xu Mingyu composed herself, stood up, and bowed deeply to Li Mu.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Li, for saving my life. If it weren't for your help, I would have been in grave danger."

Xu Mingyu's gratitude was very genuine and beyond words.

He witnessed Li Mu's fight with the Tianyan Sect. If it were him, he would probably be dead by now.

Especially the Heavenly Evolution Sect's patriarch, who is hiding in the shadows; if he makes a move, he will surely die.

.

Seeing Xu Mingyu bowing deeply and unable to rise, Li Mu raised his arm in mid-air and lifted him up.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, there's no need for such formality. I just happened to meet you by chance and did what I could."

Someone from the Tianyan Sect had previously participated in the hunt for me, and I've had no way to get revenge until I happened to run into them.

Li Mu spoke lightly, but Xu Mingyu couldn't help but take it seriously.

“Fellow Daoist Li, I am deeply grateful and will not thank you in words. However, I will do my best to serve you.”

Although he believed that great kindness should not be expressed in words, he still needed to be mindful of it, especially since Li Mu was so ruthless and decisive.

Seeing Old Xu bow again, Li Mu was speechless.

“Fellow Daoist Xu, I have a past relationship with your nephew, so there’s no need for formalities.”

When Xu Mingyu heard Li Mu mention his nephew Xu Shiheng, she couldn't help but give her nephew a thumbs up in her heart. He really made a good friend.

Li Mu defeated several patriarchs in the Tianxuan Sect, which his elder brother witnessed firsthand and was almost speechless with astonishment.

Some time ago, there were rumors in China that Li Mu single-handedly slaughtered the entire Yue family of the city lord in Xiling City.

Some say that Li Mu fought a fierce battle with the Yue family and died together with them.

Regardless, Li Mu is still alive, and it's a fact that no one from the Yue family has shown up for nearly a year.

Judging from this, Li Mu's cultivation level is unfathomable, and the Xu family must not offend him.

What puzzled him even more was that Li Mu did not use the Divine Continent Teleportation Array, nor did he borrow the Xu family's teleportation array. How did he get back to the outside world?

However, he couldn't bring himself to ask directly; their ability to fly and teleport was their secret.

It's better not to ask. If you do ask and the person doesn't answer, it can be very awkward, or even offend them.

Now that Li Mu has saved him, he wants to say something to repay him, but he doesn't dare to make any promises lightly.

He came from Shenzhou with a family mission, and the things he carried were not his own.

“Fellow Daoist Li, my Xu family has a stronghold in Shenzhou. If you ever enter Shenzhou, please come to my Xu family for a gathering. I will certainly welcome you with open arms.”

"No problem, no problem."

.

Li Mu disliked this kind of polite formality among martial artists.

He desperately wanted them to commit to using their teleportation array, but he didn't hear it.

When he was in Shenzhou, Xu Shiheng also mentioned teleportation arrays, but nothing came of it.

Now Xu Mingyu is also keeping quiet about it, which makes him feel helpless, but after thinking about it carefully, he feels relieved.

The interests of a large family will not change because of a promise made by someone. They don't say it because they can't do it themselves.

Li Mu's initial motivation for saving people stemmed from Xu Shiheng's friendship, but later personal grudges also became a factor.

Of course, he also had some ulterior motives.

Since Uncle Xu didn't dare to mention the teleportation array, he couldn't bring it up either.

However, since Yue Ling is currently living alone in Shenzhou, it's still possible to have them deliver a few messages.

After the two left the valley, Li Mu invited Xu Mingyu to visit Haojing, and Old Xu agreed.

Li Mu led Xu Mingxuan onto the flying sword. After a moment of surprise, Old Xu got used to it.

As a family capable of rivaling the four major sects, the Xu family also has members who cultivate immortal techniques.

Both ancestors were close to the Foundation Establishment stage, able to control swords with their qi, but unable to fly on their swords.

The reason for this is that there are no flying swords.

Throughout the entire land, only the Yue family of Xiling City is rumored to possess flying swords; no other forces have them.

Half an hour later, the two landed on their flying swords.

As Old Xu approached Li Mu's residence in Gaojing, he saw a stunningly beautiful woman.

I had heard Xu Shiheng say that Li Mu had married a wife in China, and I was still amazed when I first saw Li Mu's wife.

However, he had some doubts in his mind: why did this woman not seem to have any trace of having lived in China?

After Li Mu introduced him and they exchanged a few polite words, the conversation gradually turned to another woman, Yue Ling.

Yue Ling is Li Mu's wife whom he married in Shenzhou, and she still lives there.

Seeing Li Mu so calmly talking about another wife in front of his own wife, he couldn't help but give him a silent thumbs up.

He is adept at navigating social situations and is a role model for us all.

.

Xu Mingyu stayed in Gaojing for one day.

Li Mu casually asked about the purpose of his trip, and learned that he needed to purchase a large amount of medicinal herbs and daily necessities.

Thinking that the medicinal herbs in his own pharmaceutical factory were piled up like mountains, he figured they would come in handy and could save them time in purchasing them.

The medicinal materials that Lao Xu needs are mostly auxiliary medicines. China is rich in rare medicinal materials, but lacks auxiliary medicines.

He found Cheng Yishi, who was able to provide all the medicinal materials that Lao Xu needed.

So, with tears in his eyes, he made a profit through a transaction, all in gold.

After settling the medicinal herbs, the couple, along with Cheng Yi, accompanied Lao Xu to purchase daily necessities.

They bought a wide variety of items, including clothing, shoes, hats, agricultural tools, and handicrafts.

In two days, we basically helped Xu Mingyu complete the procurement task.

After Lao Xu finished his task, Cheng Yi was still somewhat unsatisfied and wished he could get to know this God of Wealth sooner.

He held onto Lao Xu's hand tightly, emphasizing repeatedly that in the future, he didn't need to go anywhere else; he could just come directly to Gaojing.

The pharmaceutical company made a fortune from the medicinal herbs alone, and then made another fortune from the exchange of gold.

Before Xu Mingyu took his leave, Lin Hongluan solemnly handed him two storage bags, asking him to give them to Yueling.

Old Xu once again gave a silent thumbs-up to this role model who was adept at navigating social situations.

With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?
