You can dig leeks, but you can't dig out the roots.
Li Mu specifically asked Wu Sanjiu not to kill those monks who had been "squeezed dry". This was exactly what he had in mind.
“What a sustainable development!”
After listening to Li Mu's words, Yuan Hua smiled while stroking his hands.
"Junior brother's vision is far-sighted, and even senior brother can't reach it!"
As he spoke, he poured a glass of fairy wine for Li Mu and raised their glasses to drink.
"Can……"
Immortal Changqing wanted to say something else, but as soon as he spoke, he was interrupted by Immortal Kongming next to him.
"But what's the matter? Brother Changqing, please don't worry about the Holy Son's affairs. The sect leader didn't say anything, but you got anxious first!"
"Evils are becoming increasingly rampant now. Not to mention how many immortal sects and Taoist sects in Eastern Continent have been destroyed by evil cultivators. Even in our Taiyuan Sect, many immortals and disciples have fallen on the battlefield. It's a time like this. Things like face are not worth mentioning. It’s not that important anymore.”
"Brother Changqing, what do you think?"
Immortal Changqing fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he sighed.
"My nephew is the Holy Son after all... Oh, forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything."
He didn't agree with Kongming Immortal's statement, but he didn't want to argue too much.
After having enough wine and food, several people stood up to say goodbye.
Immortal Yuanhua handed Li Mu a piece of yellow talisman paper.
"This is the instantaneous talisman. If junior brother is in danger, activate it and it will take you back to the main peak of Qingyun."
This is a life-saving thing, so Li Mu quickly put it away, "In a few days, when the cave is settled, I will come back."
Immortal Yuanhua nodded, "I will truthfully report to Master what I have done in the past few days."
He turned to look at Su Ling'er.
"I don't want to go back!"
Su Ling'er shrank behind Li Mu and made a face at him.
Immortal Yuanhua was a little helpless and left another instant talisman.
Immortal Changqing thought for a while and called out the talisman general.
"My nephew has moved to a new house. As an uncle, I am not prepared. I will give this talisman to you. Keeping it with you will also increase your combat power."
"Oh, uncle, you are too polite!"
Li Mu quickly thanked him. Although this old man was conservative and stubborn, he was still generous with his actions.
Send the three people to the door, and wait for them to leave.
The human head vine hiding underground and in the woods slowly emerged.
Su Ling'er's eyes lit up when she saw these strange heads. She was about to step forward to investigate and study them when she suddenly heard Li Mu's voice.
"Don't be afraid, junior sister, I'm here to look after the family and nurse the home."
Su Linger's thoughts changed, and she immediately showed a frightened expression, hiding behind Li Mu, grabbing his arm, "Hey, these things are so scary!"
Li Mu rubbed her head and returned to the cave.
The three brothers Chu Zhongtian and Qian woke up leisurely and were stunned when they saw a short and cute girl brought back by Li Mu.
"Where did your Excellency kidnapped this girl from?"
"Petite, cute and juicy. It turns out that adults like this type."
"She must have been tricked, right? This girl doesn't look very smart at first glance."
The three Qian brothers communicated with each other.
Mortal bandits, when they encounter a good-looking woman, like to take her to the mountains to be their wife.
This kind of thing happens often in the spiritual world.
However, monks have strong essence and ordinary women cannot withstand the whipping, and will be tortured to death in a short time.
Therefore, the most popular ones are those beautiful female nuns who have some moral character.
Chu Zhongtian's mind was spinning very quickly, and he immediately stepped forward and said respectfully: "I've met Madam!"
Su Ling'er blushed, "I'm not his wife, don't talk nonsense!"
As he said this, he couldn't help but smile.
He threw a few top-quality spiritual stones over and said, "I'll reward you."
Li Mu also said, "This is my junior sister. She will stay here for a few days."
Chu Zhongtian took the spirit stone and pretended to give himself a big mouth, "The villain has stupid eyes and misunderstood the fairy. He should be beaten!"
"Fairy?" Su Ling'er raised the corner of her mouth and threw a few more spirit stones.
The three Qian brothers saw him and hurriedly came over to pay their respects.
Su Ling'er each admired some spiritual stones, and then, with her hands behind her back, surrounded by the four people, she looked around the cave, pointed everywhere, and told the four people to make a flower garden here. Digging a pond there will give you the feeling of being the mistress of the house.
Li Mu allowed her to deal with it and returned to the room to analyze the current situation.
The biggest threat is undoubtedly the Blood Demon Sect.
The cave had been opened, and he could have used the power of the ninth senior brother Yuan Hua, or the two immortals Chang Qing and Kong Ming, to level the Blood Demon Sect.
But he can still tell the difference between a full meal and a full meal.
Keeping the Blood Demon Sect can not only continuously provide nutrients to the Heavenly Demon Taoist Seed, but also provide him with real energy supplements.
Therefore, it is best to keep the Blood Demon Sect.
The rest is the Demonic Realm in the south and the Wangchuan Valley in the east.
With his current level of strength, he can only move around the edge of the demon realm. If he goes too deep and encounters those big demons of the fifth and sixth levels, he can only use the instantaneous talisman to escape.
The Wangchuan Valley to the east is an ancient battlefield site that is often haunted by ghosts, and ordinary monks avoid it.
"The Heavenly Demon Dao Seed can absorb dark soul power, and it should also be able to absorb the existence of Yin Qi, evil spirit, etc. as fertilizer."
"Sooner or later, the old monster Nascent Soul of the Blood Demon Sect will find out about my fake death."
"When the time comes, if you don't have the strength to fight, you will have no choice but to pack up and go back to Qingyun Peak."
"So, exploring the Lethe Valley must be put on the agenda as soon as possible."
In the following days, Wu Sanjiu would capture several foundation-building monks every day to nourish Li Mu's body.
These foundation-building monks have all practiced the Blood Demon Technique, and they can be easily distinguished.
Li Mu is not afraid of him arresting casual cultivators to make up for his losses.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
Several days passed like this.
Wu Sanjiu brought two foundation-building monks from the Blood Demon Sect to the cave.
Li Mu activated the Yuan Devouring Art, one in each hand, to drain the true energy from the two people's bodies.
He took the wet handkerchief handed over by Su Ling'er and wiped his hands.
"Why did you come here in person today?"
Wu Sanjiu looked away from these two unfortunate ghosts and said quickly: "I came here this time because I have something I want to report to you!"
"speak."
"My brother-in-law, ah no, Xiao sent six Jindan elders to Wangchuan Valley. I wonder if you have any ideas?"
Li Mu was startled, "Tell me in detail."
As Wu Sanjiu slowly told, Li Mu also understood the situation.
This Wangchuan Valley is the site of an ancient battlefield. There are countless ancient corpses in it. The yin and evil aura are very strong and will breed evil spirits.
If not dealt with in time, ghost tides will form.
Wherever the ghost tide passes, all life is devastated.
Since the Blood Demon Sect was founded, it has been attacked three times by ghost waves, and each time it suffered heavy losses.
In order to prevent the ghost tide from appearing again, the Blood Demon Sect will regularly clean up the ghosts outside the Forgotten Valley.
Wu Sanjiu explained:
"According to past experience, cleaning once every ten years is enough."
“It’s only been six years since the last cleanup.”
"Recently, ghosts have been running out from time to time."
"Many disciples of the Blood Demon Sect have been harmed by ghosts - of course, some of them were captured by me for you to absorb the true energy."
"That's why Xiao decided to send seven Jindan elders to the Wangchuan Valley to drive away ghosts!"
