Just as everyone was wavering, a young man snorted coldly and said, "What a bunch of cowards, ready to surrender before even fighting, what heretics and evil demons, just a bunch of scum. Today, I, Sun Hai, will kill these scum in front of you, and this great credit will be mine!"
As he spoke, a long sword suddenly appeared in his hand, with terrifying energy flowing on the sword. Then he held the sword with both hands and slashed at Li Mu.
This person is at the level of Eternal God Ancestor. The power of his sword is so great that even an ordinary small universe would be split in half if hit by it.
In response, Li Mu's eyes were like a sea of stars passing through. He only took one look at Sun Hai, and Sun Hai turned into dust.
"An ant trying to shake the sky is overestimating its own capabilities." Li Mu said lightly. At the same time, the Hongmeng Dharma body, which represented the symbol of the Hongmeng Immortal Ancestor, also appeared behind him.
If logic doesn't make sense, then the only option is to use strong means to intimidate these people. Perhaps killing one person won't cause much pressure on them, but the realm of Hongmeng Immortal Ancestor is the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
At this time, Meng Wushuang also spoke, coughing lightly and said, "Ahem, my colleagues, the Lord Palace Master is merciful, he just feels pity for you and grants you a chance to prove your truth, don't be ungrateful!"
"If that's the case, senior, I appreciate your kindness, but I have already attained the third-level branch avenue, so I won't waste your precious opportunity to attain it." Qiu Feng bowed.
Li Mu turned his head and glanced at Qiu Feng indifferently. Qiu Feng was so scared that he quickly dodged away. The miserable state of Sun Hai just now was still vivid in his mind, and he didn't want to follow in Sun Hai's footsteps.
However, Li Mu loved talents and did not attack Qiu Feng. Otherwise, Qiu Feng would have no chance to hide. Li Mu said calmly, "Don't you think I am discussing this with you?"
When Qiu Feng heard this, his face turned red and he lowered his head, not daring to say another word.
"Haha, Vice President Qiu, you think too much. You have achieved enlightenment, but most of our brothers have not! You also know that the identity of the Palace Master is too sensitive. The brothers have all gone to the Palace Master's Jianmu to achieve enlightenment, but you have stayed out of it. What if something happens..." Meng Wushuang stopped talking here. His meaning was self-evident. Everyone went to achieve enlightenment, but you, Qiu Feng, stayed out of it. Are you trying to tell on me? Just this one sentence pushed Qiu Feng to the opposite side of everyone.
Sure enough, the people from Chaos Trading Company looked at Qiu Feng with a hint of vigilance.
Li Mu also spoke at the right time, and said solemnly: "Well, everyone, I, Li Mu, swear by the Heavenly Dao here. After you have achieved enlightenment, those who are willing to stay in my Lingxiao Palace can stay. If you don't want to stay, the door of my Lingxiao Universe will be open to you at any time. You can come and go freely in Lingxiao Universe!"
When everyone heard this, a different emotion suddenly surged in their hearts. Although they were managers of the Chaos Commercial Bank branch and were well-known figures in the Chaos Sea, in the eyes of the entire Qiongzu Universe, they were still a group of low-level people after all. Li Mu, an immortal ancestor of Hongmeng, was considered a giant in the Qiongzu Universe, but he actually swore for a group of low-level little people like them!
Swearing by Heaven's Way is no joke. As long as it involves Heaven's Way, no one wants to get involved. Even a 9th-rank strongman stays away from "Heaven's Way", let alone swearing by Heaven's Way. Obviously, a group of low-level people like them are not worth a big shot like Li Mu to risk being retaliated by Heaven's Way to deceive them.
"Thank you very much, Senior, for giving me this opportunity. I, Hu Heng, am willing to prove my truth in your universe!"
"After I achieve enlightenment, I will still be a free man. I can still return to Chaos Trading Company to work. It won't be considered as betraying the Qiongzu Universe. I can also improve my cultivation and gain eternal life. Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk. Let's do it!" There are many people who hold this idea.
A thousand-mile journey is ruined by a small hole. Once one person expressed his opinion, others soon followed suit. One after another, the Chaos Business Houses rushed to express their gratitude to Li Mu and expressed their willingness to prove their truth in the Lingxiao Universe.
Some who were still hesitating lowered their heads under the unfriendly gazes of the people around them. Even monks who had already achieved enlightenment, such as Qiu Fengye, had no choice but to surrender. Everyone had surrendered, so what was the point of you not surrendering?
Many times, no matter whether something is right or not, as long as you stand on the opposite side of the majority of people, you are an outsider and the object of hatred and exclusion by everyone.
…………
"One by one, line up and enter in an orderly manner!" The people from Chaos Trading Company flew up to the Lingxiao Universe Channel in the sky one by one, and Chen Siqi maintained order above the channel.
"Haha, Lord Palace Master, you see, my performance this time is okay, right?" Meng Wushuang asked Li Mu with a flattering look on his face.
"It's okay, you're lucky. The guy named Qiu Feng helped you a lot." Li Mu said lightly.
Meng Wushuang also chuckled, he naturally knew what Li Mu was referring to, if Qiu Feng hadn't wanted to bring him down and hadn't used some unknown means to get nearly half of the Chaos Trading Company managers from that slightly remote area here in advance, it would have been impossible for this branch to be taken over so easily, and if those remaining forces caused trouble again in the future, it would bring him a lot of trouble.
After all, he had heard Li Mu say that he would still be in charge of these people in the future. On the surface, they were still a branch of Chaos Trading Company. If he didn't deal with them, he would still have to clean up the mess once Li Mu left.
“Then Palace Master, regarding my upgrading of my branch lineage…?” Meng Wushuang asked cautiously.
"Haha, this palace master has always been fair. Since you have made contributions, there will naturally be rewards. I will grant you the second-level branch certificate." Li Mu said.
"Thank you for the gift, Palace Master!" Meng Wushuang said excitedly. He originally thought that it would be good enough if Li Mu could recover his third-level branch meridian and attain enlightenment, but he didn't expect that he could even be promoted to a higher level. This was a blessing in disguise for him.
You should know that the upper limit of the level of cultivation for a third-level branch is just the Eternal Immortal Ancestor, while a second-level branch directly jumps two levels and can reach the peak of the Chaos God Ancestor realm, and one step further is the Chaos Immortal Ancestor. The Chaos Immortal Ancestor realm is also a high-level personnel even among the six major forces that control the lifeline of the Sky Ancestor Universe. It can be seen how precious the level of cultivation for this second-level branch is. He has reached the sky in one step!
"Go ahead." Li Mu waved his hand lightly, indicating Meng Wushuang to enter the Lingxiao Universe first.
Upon hearing this, Meng Wushuang burst into tears of gratitude towards Li Mu again, and then happily flew towards the Lingxiao universe channel.
Just as everyone in the conference hall was busy migrating towards the Lingxiao Universe, an untimely voice sounded outside the door: "Meng Wushuang, come out!"
