Chapter 234 First Disciple

The carriage sped past the long-vanished gates of Hundred Refinements City. In the darkness, an extremely strong stench of blood lingered around the entire city wall, but the carriage did not stop at all, seemingly unconcerned.

After entering the city, the carriage traveled along the long, dilapidated blue brick street, crossed several streets, and finally stopped in front of the Baixiang Pavilion.

Sitting atop the roof ridge, Li Musheng looked down and then raised an eyebrow.

He saw two familiar faces on the newly arrived carriage.

The carriage, which was originally occupied by the coachman, was now occupied by an old man and a little girl.

These two were none other than the old man in hemp clothing and Lin Xun'er, who planned to secretly travel to Hundred Refinement Peak to seek revenge.

On their way, they encountered the eldest disciple of the Fallen God Peak Sect, who was coming to Hundred Refinement City. The two sides clashed, and the old man in hemp clothing was captured. Even though the old man in hemp clothing, a master of the Celestial Realm, tried his best to escape, he could not escape at all.

At this moment, the head disciple of Luoshen Peak used his folding fan to lift the carriage curtain and looked up at Li Musheng on the top of Baixiang Pavilion.

Upon seeing Li Musheng, who was indeed as young as the messenger had described, his expression shifted slightly, and he asked calmly:
"Just now, the peak of my Fallen God Peak was defeated by your hand?"

Upon hearing this, Li Musheng didn't say anything more, but simply pointed to the ditch in the street next to Baixiang Pavilion.

His attention was focused on the old man in hemp clothing and Lin Xun'er. He curiously observed them for a while and found that both of them looked extremely unpleasant, especially Lin Xun'er, whose face showed both anger and resentment, as if she was filled with regret.

At the same time, the young man glanced at the pile of corpses in the deep ditch in the street, his gaze lingering briefly on Zheng Yunfeng's body.

Then, he turned and looked up at Li Musheng on the roof of the pavilion, his expression unreadable, and said:
"Are you from the Great Li Dynasty? But why have I never heard of such a young master from the Great Li Dynasty?"

Faced with the young man's question, Li Musheng withdrew his gaze, glanced at the man, and said:
"There are plenty of things you haven't heard of, but... you certainly have a lot of guts."

As he spoke, Li Musheng raised an eyebrow and said:

"Since you didn't start off shouting for blood, I have a suggestion for you: call more people, preferably all the best fighters from Fallen God Peak, otherwise..."

After thinking for a moment, Li Musheng realized he didn't know what to say next.

Even if the other party really called up all the people from Luoshen Peak, it seems the result would be the same; there is no "otherwise" or "unexpected" outcome.

The young man gazed at Li Musheng atop the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said:
"Thank you for reminding me, but you are wrong about one thing. I came to Hundred Refinement City not because I am bold, but because I am confident enough."

Upon hearing this, Li Musheng's expression faltered slightly. He stared at the young man under Bai Xiang Pavilion for a while, but couldn't discern anything unusual. He then nodded and said:

"as long as you are happy."

The young man could naturally sense the disdain from Li Musheng, but he seemed unconcerned. He glanced at the old man in hemp clothing and Lin Xun'er in the carriage and slowly said:
"On my way to Hundred Refinement City, I encountered these two people. They were not from Fallen God Peak and had ulterior motives. I originally planned to kill them casually."

"However, they said they had a close relationship with you, so I brought them along."

As he spoke, the young man glanced casually at Li Musheng and said:

"What do you think I should do with them? Or do you think they are valuable enough to be used as bargaining chips in my hands?"

Upon hearing this, both the old man in hemp clothing and Lin Xun'er looked towards Li Musheng on the roof of the pavilion, their eyes clearly filled with anxiety and pleading.

Previously, when this disciple of the Fallen God Peak Sect Master wanted to kill them, they were truly unwilling.

The two men were already burdened with a blood feud, and they had just seen a glimmer of hope for revenge when it was cut short. At that time, they had no choice but to wait for death, so in desperation, they had to fabricate a story about their relationship with Li Musheng, a master who had just killed the peak master of Hundred Refinements Peak, in order to barely save their lives for the time being.

At this moment, Li Musheng, facing the gazes of the two men, stroked his chin and, instead of answering the young man's question, asked him:
"I'm a little curious, what did they say to you about our relationship just now?"

Upon hearing this, the young man seemed unconcerned and said indifferently:

"They said that you are all from the Great Li Dynasty and that you came to Hundred Refinement Peak to carry out a secret mission assigned by the Great Li Emperor. However, only you know the details of the secret mission."

Upon hearing this, Li Musheng chuckled, glanced at the old man in hemp clothing and Lin Xun'er, and suddenly spoke:

"You guys know quite a lot. I should have killed you all to silence you!"

Upon hearing this, both the old man in hemp clothing and Lin Xun'er were taken aback, and then exchanged a glance.

At this moment, both the grandfather and grandson could clearly see the shock in each other's eyes:

Is there really a secret mission?
How could they possibly fool them?

The eldest disciple of the Fallen God Peak Sect leader wore a thoughtful expression. He looked at Li Musheng on the pavilion roof, then narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded, saying:

"It seems you intend to protect both of them."

As he spoke, a faint smile appeared on the young man's lips.

"In that case, if you answer three questions for me, I can promise not to take their lives."

Upon hearing this, the old man in hemp clothing and Lin Xun'er immediately changed their expressions and looked at Li Musheng.

However, Li Musheng waved his hand and said to the young man below:
"Don't complicate things so much. I suggest you just take action."

Upon hearing this, the young man slowly shook his head, about to speak.

However, the next moment, he suddenly became alert, and the true energy of heaven and earth around him suddenly surged, making him appear ethereal and elusive.

The old man in hemp clothing and Lin Xun'er both seemed to sense something and immediately looked towards the young man.

Then, the two saw that there was a bloody hole running through the other's right chest.

However, the young man was clearly unharmed. Strands of bloody light appeared in the blood hole, and the surrounding flesh and fascia slowly writhed. The blood hole was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At this moment, the head disciple of Luoshen Peak glanced down at the bloody hole in his chest, then looked up at Li Musheng atop the pavilion and said:

"Were you just about to pierce my head like you did with Zheng Fengzuo?"

"I admit that your attack was indeed difficult to detect and so fast that it was impossible to defend against."

At this point, the young man suddenly revealed a mocking smile and said:

"However, I can also tell you clearly that no matter what you do, you cannot kill me."
