Chapter 580 Killing the Opponents in One Second
“Clank, clink, clank!”
Sounds of the rapid collision of the sword and broadsword were heard.
One second, the figures tangled together. The next, they suddenly separated.
The four guards were blocked and couldn’t get close to Li Mu imdiately.
Li Mu looked at the figure in front of him in great surprise.
It was the man whose left leg was disabled.
“My benefactor, go now!” the man said to Li Mu without looking back at him.
The copper broadsword in his hand, which was rusty, was a Taoist instrunt with little spiritual qi. There were dozens of chips on the blade, which looked like sawteeth.
Seeing this broken saber, people couldn’t help but think that its owner must be a veteran warrior.
The sudden clashes of weapons just now were exactly made by the disabled man. He blocked the attack of the four bodyguards of the stout rchant for Li Mu.
No one would have thought that he would actually step up.
Judging from his broadsword skills and body movents, the strength of this disabled man was quite extraordinary. He was probably about to step into the Mortal Realm. However, the disability of his left leg had been a drag on him.
The man was bearded, his eyes round as a leopard’s, his hair tangled and ssy. He was wearing linen clothes, a pair of old boots, and brandishing a broken broadsword.
Like an insurmountable wall, he stood in front of Li Mu, not flinching at all.
The stout rchant’s countenance altered when he saw that.
“You’re a cripple who doesn’t know what’s good for you. How dare you ddle in my affairs?” His fat face creased, and he sneered like a cruel knife. “What’s your na? Are you just sick of being alive?”
“I’m Guo Nu, from the Firefly Star,” the man raised his head and answered with a kind of pride in his tone that others could not understand.
The glory of his past had been blown away by the rain, but the hot blood and morality in his chest were still roaring in this broken body and had not cooled down for a mont.
“Haha, you turn out to be a naless junior in the lowlife world. Haven’t the b*stards from the Firefly Star already died out?” The stout rchant sneered and did not take the man seriously. He shouted at his guards, “What are you waiting for? Kill this d*mn cripple for !”
The four bodyguards once again surrounded him.
“Who dares to protect him today?” Pointing at Li Mu, the stout rchant shouted to all the onlookers with a fierce edge in his voice. “If anyone dares to protect him, I will make him disappear from the world like this d*mn cripple.”
Having suffered a huge financial loss and a huge insult to his intelligence, the stout rchant was so furious that he was sort of hysterical now. The cruelty and arrogance inside him were instantly fully exposed.
“The grace of dripping water should be reciprocated by a gushing spring.” The disabled man looked rather resolute. Facing the four bodyguards who were attacking him from all directions, his figure remained as still as a mountain. The broken broadsword in his hand vibrated, letting out a deep cry of an ancient broadsword.
Without turning his head, the disabled man urged Li Mu, “Just go, my benefactor. I’ll stall them...”
Before he could finish his words, a hand patted him gently on the shoulder.
Li Mu ca out from behind him and said, “Brother Guo, let handle them. I can try the new broadsword by the way.”
The disabled man was taken aback.
Then, he saw a jet of arched light shot out from Li Mu’s hand. It was bright and dazzling, as though a blazing sun had risen over the market in an instant.
“Rupture, rupture, rupture, rupture!”
When everyone’s attention was focused on the ongoing battle, four barely discernible ripping sounds rang out in a split second.
Then, the light suddenly dimd.
The swords in the four bodyguards’ hands were suddenly snapped from the middle and fell to the ground. Then, before the shock on their faces dissipated, they suddenly felt that all the strength in their bodies was sucked away as if there were a leakage, leaving nothing inside them.
Flop, thud, flop, thud!
The four bodyguards of the stout rchant were all knocked down.
Li Mu took them down in just one second!
The crowd all looked shocked and in disbelief.
In their eyes, Li Mu was just an insignificant cultivator in the Worm Realm who happened to have an amazing skill to select Primordial Stones. Yet, no matter how heaven-defyingly good he was at picking Primordial Stone, it could not greatly improve his combat capability. And these four bodyguards were all at the initial stage of the Mortal Realm, not to ntion that this was a four-on-one battle. Even if it were a one-on-one fight, Li Mu was still in a disadvantageous position.
But as it turned out—
With just one strike, Li Mu defeated the four bodyguards in an instant, didn’t he?
The stout rchant also had an incredulous look on his face.
The disabled man nad Guo Nu was dazed, and a trace of disappointnt flashed across his face. Then he stepped back quietly and slowly blended into the crowd.
He didn’t want to show off, nor did he want to be a hero.
Because his wife and daughter were waiting for him to pick them up in that bitter world. A mont ago, he was just worried about Li Mu’s safety, so he tried his best to help him.
As the saying went, the grace of dripping water should be repaid with a gushing spring. If it weren’t for the piece of gold-colored fairy crystal that Li Mu earned for him, he was afraid that he would never be able to realize his dream even if he worked hard for a lifeti.
Now that he saw Li Mu’s strike, he knew that his benefactor was much stronger than him and didn’t need his help.
Ding Yi, however, was not surprised to see that.
He had not yet seen through the Sect Master’s cultivation. So far, Li Mu had already killed several people in the Mortal Realm. Now, these little minions in front of him wanted to cut off his legs on their own. How could that possible? They were courting death themselves.
“I didn’t expect you to be sothing in battling. No wonder you’re so unscrupulous.” The stout rchant ca back to his senses and sneered. There was not much fear on his face. He then remarked, “However, it’s a sha that you run into today. Even if you are a tiger, you have to lie down in front of . Even if you are a dragon, you have to behave in front of .”
He turned to another bodyguard beside him and ordered, “Go check on Leader Zhang. Why hasn’t he co back yet? Hasn’t he finished his task by now?”
Before his voice died away—
“President, I’m back.”
A brawny bald man, who looked as unbeatable as an iron tower, stalked over.
The muscles of this strong man seed to be made of pure iron, shining with a tallic luster. He was bald and had a ferocious face. He was more than two ters tall, as daunting as a black bear. There was a violent demonic aura around him, which indicated that he was definitely not a human being. He must be a mber of the demon clan who had transford into a human being.
An expert at the advanced stage of the Mortal Realm!
As he stood there, everyone felt a suffocating pressure, and they couldn’t help but feel scared.
“How is it going?”
The stout asked angrily with an exasperated look on his face.
The bald man hurriedly said, “All taken care of. Only a little bit is left to be handled. I heard that you have had so trouble, so I hurried over here first.”
At the armpit of his left arm, there was a small black beast with white hair on its head. It was the pet of that little boy, an Astral Origin Beast nad Flattop, that Li Mu had seen at the stall selling beasts. The beast had had its teeth sink into the man’s arm and refused to let go no matter what.
Behind him, two guards were carrying a leather bag, inside which there was a struggling movent. It could be vaguely seen that a human being was in the bag.
Li Mu took a look at the size of the bag and guessed that it should be the little boy at the stall who had been thrown into the leather bag.
“These evil rchants have really made their nasty move in broad daylight!”
“That’s just hideous!”
Li Mu couldn’t help but feel a surge of killing intent in his heart.
They were scums. He wouldn’t feel any bit of guilt to kill them.
“Go, get rid of this guy for .” The stout rchant pointed to Li Mu and said, “Use the ans you’re best at, break this little b*stard’s bones for ...”
Before his voice died away—
Just at this mont, another voice sounded.
“What’s going on? Who is causing trouble? What are you all gathered here for?”
As the voice with an affected dignity was heard, the crowd parted as the sea waves did, and two high-ups of the Gold Sun Sect surrounded by more than a dozen disciples slowly marched into the market.
The people in the market were all very afraid of the people of the Gold Sun Sect. At the sa ti, they retreated like an ebbing tide, and a large open space imdiately appeared around the deserted stall selling Primordial Stones.
Many people recognized the horse-faced expert from the Gold Sun Sect. He was Elder Zhou Changfa of the Gold Sun Sect, the local tyrant of Gold Town. He was a cruel and rciless “devil king”.
The stout rchant’s angry face was imdiately replaced by a big smile. Beaming, he walked up to the elder and said, “Haha, Elder Zhou, it’s been a long ti since we last t. What has brought such a distinguished man like you here?”
The horse-faced Elder Zhou glanced at this fat man and laughed. With a perfunctory manner, he said, “Turns out that President Zhang is here. What has happened here? From the looks of it, your people have suffered a loss.”
The stout rchant said, “Elder Zhou, your timing couldn’t be better. This little b*stard doesn’t know how high the sky is and how vast the earth is. He’s committed murder in your territory and broken the rules. You have to uphold justice for us honest rchants.”
What he had said was actually the opposite of what really happened. When the people around heard his words, they also felt that this businessman surnad Ma was too shaless.
“Haha, has there really been such a thing in my territory?” Elder Zhou’s eyes, which were as fierce as a knife, fell on Li Mu and looked him up and down. He looked quite nacing, as though a fierce beast thinking about where to start to tear up its prey.
“It’s these rchants that picked up the fight first and violated the rules.” Guo Nu, who had been hiding in the crowd, couldn’t stand it and speak up again.
“Yes. I’m Yue Lun, the ‘Flying Eagle’. I can also testify that this group of businessn got violent first.” The middle-aged man, who had received Li Mu’s help before, also stepped up and testified.
Then, people began to speak up for Li Mu one after another. Most of them were those that Li Mu had helped to select the stones before.
anwhile, a majority of the crowd remained silent.
Many people who knew Zhou Changfa understood that this devil king didn’t need an excuse to do away with a person. Today, this young man had earned so many gold-colored fairy crystals. The devil king definitely wouldn’t let him and his wealth slip away so easily.
Sure enough, Zhou Changfa chose to turn a deaf ear to Guo Nu and the others. He directly ordered a disciple of the Gold Sun Sect next to him, “Kill this troublemaker.”
He didn’t even want to give Li Mu a chance to defend himself.
That disciple of the Gold Sun Sect cackled and walked straight to Li Mu. He unsheathed the long sword in his hand and said, “Boy, you’d better not try to fight back. I’ll let you die a quick death, otherwise, hehe...”
Suddenly—
There was a flash of broadsword light.
The head of the disciple of the Gold Sun Sect flew out.
When the head was in the air, the contemptuous smile was still on his face. He had no ti to change his expression. Up to the mont that his life was completely over, he still had no idea what had happened.
In that twinkling of an eye, the broadsword intent of 24 Solar Terms had flooded into the cut in his neck, destroying and extinguishing all his vitality.
Li Mu looked at the broadsword shaped like a wild goose feather in his hand and said with a happy look, “Not bad. It’s a good broadsword, a really good one!”
This scene made the people around feel as if the sky had collapsed in an instant.
No one had expected that Li Mu was so fierce that he even dared to kill a mber of the Gold Sun Sect Moreover, in front of Zhou Changfa, the devil king, he directly killed that disciple without any hesitation as if slashing a pig.
Even Zhou Changfa himself was stunned.
It had been a long ti since anyone dared to defy him. For a mont, he found it hard to believe what he had just seen. After quite a while, he uttered, “You... little scum, how dare you kill a mber of the Gold Sun Sect? You...”
Li Mu directly interrupted him and said, “Is the Gold Sun Sect very powerful? There was once a person who claid to be the head of the Gold Sun Sect that had been beheaded by with one neat strike. He then died like a dog. Now, the grass on his grave may have been as tall as a grown-up man.”
