Yunnan Province, Nanpei City, Huo Family Study.
Li Mu was almost laughing in anger at Huo Yushan's (Old Master Huo's) lack of martial ethics.
These people always apply double standards to others, yet they don't realize that their own behavior also crosses the line for others.
Li Mu was staring at Huo Yushan as he spoke when, in his mind's eye, a middle-aged man sitting at the desk secretly took out his phone.
"puff!"
With a single gust of wind, Li Mu chopped off the arm of a middle-aged man sitting at his desk.
The man was making a phone call to report a message or ask for help, thinking he was being discreet.
"ah!!!"
Huo Huanchen clutched his severed arm and let out a bloodcurdling scream that made everyone in the room's eardrums throb.
Li Mu unleashed another wind blade, severing his head completely, and the room finally fell silent.
Then, the people sitting there all began to tremble.
These people are all key members of the Huo family. After Huo Zheng disappeared, the old man said everything he needed to say, and everyone knows that Li Mu is a martial artist.
Martial artists were not unfamiliar to them; Huo Huanyu was also a martial artist, but he had never seen a martial artist kill someone.
.
"You're absolutely right. I killed Huo Zheng too, because he brought gunmen to kill me. Don't you think he deserved to be killed?"
Li Mu looked at Huo Yushan and asked.
Seeing his son killed so easily, Huo Yushan's lips trembled with anger.
When Li Mu asked him whether Huo Zheng should be killed, he almost broke down and shouted:
“Li Mu, you will be punished for what you have done to the Huo family. Even if you kill us all, Huo Huanyu will not let you go.”
"Oh! Is that so?"
Li Mu raised his hand and threw out a handful of iron nails, creating a series of thuds.
Everyone in the room, except Huo Yushan, had blood dripping from their foreheads, their heads tilted to one side, or they were lying on the ground.
"You spoke too soon. Now is the time to kill them all. What can you do about it?"
Li Mu stared at Huo Yushan as he spoke.
“You’re in your seventies or eighties now. I didn’t want to kill so many people, but you said I’d kill them all, so I’ll do as you say and kill them all.”
Also, that Huo Huanyu you mentioned, he doesn't need to come looking for me; I'll go find him myself. He must die.
Huo Yushan watched as Li Mu killed without blinking an eye, actually murdering all of his sons and grandsons. His eyes were bloodshot and bulging.
He pointed at Li Mu with his mouth agape, unable to utter a word.
Then, he foamed at the mouth, his head lolled to the side, and he fell to the ground, convulsed a few times, and died.
Li Mu ignored Old Master Huo, who had suffered a ruptured blood vessel and a heart attack.
After burning everyone else to ashes with fireballs, he left the Huo family.
Thus, the Huo family was destroyed.
.
After stepping onto the flying sword, Li Mu let out a long breath.
He did come to the Huo family to kill people, but he didn't intend to kill that many.
In his mind, killing one or two would be enough to intimidate them; as long as he himself didn't die, he would be a permanent threat to the Huo family.
It was just too coincidental that he happened to be there during the Huo family's family meeting, and Huo Yushan was still oblivious to the danger and used Huo Huanyu to threaten him.
Why keep people who threaten you alive if you don't kill them? Why let them live and cause you trouble?
He felt no sense of accomplishment in killing ordinary people like this, and he even felt a slight pang of reluctance.
Now that he's already killed them, he won't go off to eat vegetarian food, chant Buddhist scriptures, or wallow in self-reproach.
After flying for a distance, Li Mu looked up at the starry sky, found his direction, and continued flying forward.
Next stop, Thunder God Sect.
.
The Chen Family Mansion in Yanjing.
While Chen Jizu was eating, he received a call from Huo Huanchen.
The moment the call connected, Huo Huanchen let out a scream.
There was a moment of silence on the phone, followed by a young voice.
"You're absolutely right. I killed Huo Zheng too, because he brought gunmen to kill me. Don't you think he deserved to die?"
These words made Chen Jizu's heart skip a beat. Who was this person who admitted to killing Huo Zheng?
He thought of someone, and the person who spoke must be Li Mu.
'Li Mu!?' Is Li Mu not dead? He was very puzzled and didn't want Li Mu to be the one speaking.
Subsequently, Old Master Huo's words confirmed that this person was indeed Li Mu.
If Li Mu hadn't died, the Huo family would have been in big trouble, and then the Chen family would be in trouble too.
Immediately afterwards, there were some faint hissing sounds coming from the phone, and Li Mu continued, saying that he had killed everyone.
Chen Jizu held the phone and listened, but dared not make a sound until there was no more sound from the other end.
Half an hour later, Chen Jizu used the family nanny's cell phone to call Huo Huanchen, but no one answered.
He wanted to call the police, but he also wanted to send someone to check on the Huo family. After much deliberation, he finally decided to do nothing.
.
After calming himself down, Chen Jizu sat in his study and fell into deep thought.
The message coming from the phone call suggests that something has most likely happened to the Huo family, and they may very well have been wiped out by Li Mu.
Even though he knew the Huo family was in trouble, he still chose to do nothing; this was a decision he made after careful consideration.
He couldn't provoke Li Mu; if a martial artist who disregarded the rules were angered, the consequences would be unimaginable.
What he needs to consider now is what will become of the Chen family next.
Even Huo Huanyu and his sect couldn't deal with Li Mu, so what about the Chen family?
Now it seems that, given Li Mu's methods towards the Huo family, if he were to come to Yanjing, the Chen family might also be wiped out.
Previously, Li Mu was just seen as a nuisance, but now he has become a Damocles' sword hanging over the Chen family's head.
Chen Jizu kept thinking to himself that it was probably impossible to prevent Li Mu from coming to the Chen family.
The only thing we can do is to hurry up and make arrangements to find a way to leave more people for the Chen family.
.
Li Mu was unaware that his murder had been overheard by someone, and that person was none other than his arch-enemy, the Chen family of Yanjing.
For the sake of his family, Chen Jizu did not choose to call the police, which saved Li Mu a lot of trouble.
He has now entered the Hengduan Mountains by flying on his sword, and the view of the mountains from the air is quite unique.
The mountain range stretches endlessly, with peaks rising and falling like rolling green waves, a truly breathtaking sight.
The beautiful scenery did not lift Li Mu's spirits; instead, it left him feeling somewhat lost.
In Liao Yunfeng's memory, the Heavenly Thunder Sect should be located here.
However, Li Mu used his divine sense to circle the entire mountain range, but he did not find any trace of any sect.
After circling in the air once more without success, Li Mu had no choice but to land in the forest.
Fortunately, the forest Li Mu landed in felt familiar to him; it must have been the same forest where he had been ambushed and killed before.
He meditated in the mountains and forests while pondering the problem.
The Heavenly Thunder Sect is right here, so why can't we find it? Is it because of the formation again?
He had already encountered two natural formations in this world. One was a formation made up of several rocks protruding from the surface of the lake.
One is the stone forest formation outside the Stone Temple; both of these are natural formations.
If there is a natural formation here, it would be a formation formed by mountains, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a celestial-level formation.
A celestial-level formation is incredibly difficult to break, let alone find the entrance to it.
Knowing that his enemy was here, yet having no way to seek revenge, Li Mu was once again caught in a dilemma.
