Regarding Li Mu's arrival, others just looked at him with some curiosity and did not take it too seriously. After all, people kept coming here after this secret realm was opened.
"Haha, fellow Daoist, don't you plan to go in and try it out now that you've just arrived?" A bearded monk who was sitting not far from Li Mu stood up and walked to Li Mu and asked with a smile.
Li Mu closed his eyes slightly and ignored him.
The bearded monk didn't care about Li Mu's attitude. He said to Li Mu, "Haha, fellow Daoist, I know what you are planning. Look at the monks guarding outside. Most of them have the same idea as you. Moreover, they have gathered in groups. You and I are weak. Why don't we join forces and split the chance of winning equally? What do you think?"
Although the bearded monk did not detect any fluctuation in Li Mu's cultivation, he had a hunch that Li Mu must be no ordinary person, otherwise he would not have come to such a place alone with a child.
"Not interested." Li Mu still said indifferently.
"Fellow Daoist, I kindly invite you to cooperate with me, but you are so disheartening!" The bearded man said coldly.
"Get lost~" Li Mu said bluntly.
The bearded monk had a gloomy expression on his face. He glanced at Li Yunxi and snorted coldly, "Hmph~ You don't know what's good for you! This place is full of all kinds of people. You have to be careful with a little girl." The threat was self-evident.
The reason why he wanted Li Mu to join him was because everyone else knew him to some extent, and his reputation was not very good, so no one wanted to cooperate with him. However, there were many masters in the field, and it was really difficult for him to gain any benefits from so many people. If Li Mu agreed to him, after he seized the opportunities obtained by those people, he could also let Li Mu attract other people, and then he could take advantage of the chaos to escape.
Seeing this, Li Mu's face turned cold. He took the innocent Li Yunxi into his arms and shielded her facial features with his spiritual sense. Then he stretched out his hand and slapped the bearded monk in the air. Seeing that Li Mu was attacking him, the bearded monk quickly prepared a defensive posture. However, his tricks were not even as good as an ant trying to shake a tree in front of Li Mu. In an instant, the bearded monk was slapped into nothingness by Li Mu's palm, leaving nothing behind.
Only after doing all this did Li Mu let go of Li Yunxi's facial features. Li Yunxi naively asked Li Mu where the scary bearded man had gone.
"Hiss~" Some people watching the show took a deep breath, shocked, and discussed in low voices. You know, the bearded man is not an unknown little cultivator, he is a famous casual cultivator in the western region of Xuantian Continent, but because he does things in a despicable way and has no integrity, no one wants to associate with him. And Li Mu was able to kill the bearded man with one palm, what kind of cultivation is this?
A middle-aged woman sitting at the entrance of the secret realm said to an old man beside her with concern, "Third Elder, what should we do now? Although the big bearded man is only at the peak of the Out-of-Body Stage, as far as I know, he has a treasure. Ordinary Spiritual Stage cultivators can't do anything to him. This man can deal with the big bearded man so easily. It is very likely that his cultivation has reached the Mahayana Stage! If he attacks us at that time, we will not be able to control the situation at all!"
The old man was somewhat helpless and said, "Sixth Elder, you are too impatient. If he is really a Mahayana cultivator, he would not remain unknown and would not do such a thing as snatching a young man. Maybe he is here to take care of the young man. Don't be impatient. I will go over to say hello to that senior and test his opinion. If it doesn't work, we will notify the sect master."
"Well, then you better be careful." said the Sixth Elder.
The old man nodded slightly, then strode towards Li Mu.
Li Mu didn't care about the discussions around him. He could avoid a lot of trouble through the deterrence just now.
The old man who had just come to Li Mu also came over, bowed to him and said, "Hehe, hello, senior. I am Meng Hai, the third elder of the Juling Sect. May I ask what your name is?"
The old man was still a little uneasy after he finished speaking, after all, he didn't know what Li Mu's temper was like.
"What's the matter?" Li Mu did not answer Meng Hai, but said lightly.
Meng Hai did not take Li Mu's indifference to heart. The other party was most likely a great master in the Mahayana period, so it was normal for him to be a little arrogant. Meng Hai still smiled and said to Li Mu, "It's okay, it's okay. We were shocked by your heroic performance just now, so we came here to say hello! I wonder how outstanding the talents who can be protected by such a great master as you are. I'm afraid they will gain a lot in this secret realm. I would like to congratulate you first!"
Li Mu found it a little funny. This person was obviously here to test his opinion! Then he smiled at Meng Hai and said, "If I say that I opened up this secret place, would you believe it?"
"This... Senior, please stop joking. This secret realm has existed for more than tens of thousands of years." Meng Hai said with a strange expression.
Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Okay, you don't have to probe me anymore. There are no descendants of mine in there, and I will not snatch the opportunities of those younger generations. I am just here to join in the fun, so you don't have to worry too much."
"Senior, that's not what I meant..." Meng Hai was a little embarrassed.
Li Mu waved his hand, indicating that Meng Hai could leave. Meng Hai had no choice but to bow to Li Mu again and then retreat.
Meng Hai was not very reassured about Li Mu's statement. After returning, he immediately informed the leader of his sect that this matter should not be taken lightly. Because this secret realm was too remote, the news of its opening had not spread for a while, and the people who came were all nearby cultivators. Therefore, Meng Hai and the six elders could still maintain control of the situation, but Li Mu's arrival made them somewhat passive. Moreover, he did not know Li Mu's background. If Li Mu broke his promise, he would be helpless.
"Dad, it's so boring here. When will someone come out of that colorful vortex?" Li Yunxi asked, holding his chin with one hand and pointing at the entrance to the secret realm.
"Haha, it should be soon. You go and play for a while first." Li Mu said with a smile, and then took out a toy car from the Qiankun Ring. Before leaving the Earth, Chen Xiuhua specially bought a lot of toys for Li Yunxi. This was the first time that Li Mu took them out for Li Yunxi.
Li Yunxi's eyes lit up when he saw this, and then he sat directly on the toy car, unable to let it go. Then he drove slowly on the field, slowly getting faster and faster, and gradually leaving Li Mu's sight.
Li Mu was not worried about this. The highest level of cultivators gathered here was the one named Meng Hai, who was only in the late stage of the Spirit Severing Realm. He could not pose any threat to Li Yunxi, and the others were even more insignificant.
