Chapter 1061
Chapter 1061. Waiting for a result.
A sullen and solemn atmosphere pervaded the great hall.
The people here, were not fools, and what Li Mu could see, they could all see as well.
If the Old Godly Cleric was sitting firmly in Dongxing Village like before, it meant that things would be smooth and simple, but now even the Old Godly Cleric had become sullen and came personally, so it was obvious how bad the situation was.
The old cleric hemmed and hawed, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and said, “Let’s go, I’ll take you.”
Li Mu thought very seriously and said, “Wait a little longer.”
“Wait for what?” The old cleric said.
Li Mu said, “Wait for an answer.”
“Still not dead in the water? If you wait until they’ve set up their nets, it won’t be easy to leave.” The old cleric said.
Li Mu asked rhetorically, “Didn’t you say that only your hands cover the sky?”
“Hahahahaha,” the old godly man laughed out loud, “Good, the old man will wait with you, I say I can take you away, no matter when, I can do it.”
He slowly walked over to the side seat next to the great seat of the Iron Sword and sat down.
A majestic aura surged out, circle by circle, radiating out towards the entire Huining City with the Bright Night Great Hall as the center.
This aura was so grand and so vast that almost in an instant, all the living beings in the entire Huining City felt the mighty pressure that permeated the heavens and earth, and the bright and righteous power of will that was as bright and righteous as the Hao Sun passing through the sky.
This was the power of the Martial Great Emperor.
It’s the power to stand at the pinnacle of martial arts.
For many years, there might have been many Martial Dao Great Emperors that had come and gone in the city of Huining, but there had never been a day like today, when a Martial Dao Great Emperor had so completely released his pressure, centering on the Ming Nights Division like a blazing sun that covered the entire city of Huining with its light.
The three major ministry expert powerhouses that surrounded Ming Nights Division were instantly trembling with fear.
Even the heads of the three major ministries, who were personally sitting in the town, all had wildly changed in color at this time, and fear began to flood their hearts with uncontrollable fear.
I had long heard that behind Li Mu, there stood a Martial Emperor, but it was only a rumor, so today I was able to see it.
This kind of bright, majestic and vast aura, as if it was the Star Abyss, was definitely not an ordinary martial arts emperor, and at this time, releasing the power pressure in such a way, it was articulating his own will and showing his own attitude.
He was telling everyone, especially the parties at the Ten Elders’ Meeting at the Military Ministry Building, that no matter what the cost, he would stand by Li Mu.
How terrifying was the will of a Martial Emperor?
No one in this world dares to take it lightly.
So, the trend of decision-making at the Ten Old Men’s Conference, will that change?
At this point, even the heads of the three major ministries are unable to degree side.
However, there was no doubt that this Ten Elders’ Meeting was very important to the entire human race.
Time passes.
In the blink of an eye, another hour passed.
The atmosphere in the city of Huining was suffocating.
That’s when there was movement.
A page of flying boats, coming out from the direction of the Military Ministry Building at an extremely high speed, arrived outside the Bright Night Division.
“It’s the messenger boat!”
Xiao Ruyi, Yelu Hui, and Wu Luyi’s three major ministry heads were shaken in spirit and rushed to welcome them.
The flying boat pressed down, and standing at the head of the boat was a barefoot young man with white clothes like snow and long hair draped over his shoulders.
White as Frost.
The head of the nine heirs of the Thunder Road Ancestral Mountain.
Surprisingly, he came with the army’s messenger boat, could it be ……
“Ministry Head Xiao, Ministry Head Yelu, and Ministry Head Wu, the three of you are all here, that’s just right, come with me to pass on the decision of the Ten Elders Council.” Bai Rushang’s face was indifferent, and his expression was like a frosty shroud.
The three major ministry heads looked at each other and vaguely already guessed something in their hearts.
Bai Rushang’s figure was in the air, arriving at the main entrance of the Bright Night Division Fortress, and within her gaze, it seemed as if thousands of winds and snows were coalescing as she opened her mouth and said, “Li Mu, roll out.”
Even if there was a powerful and incomparable Martial Emperor sitting amongst the Bright Night Division at this moment, he did not have the slightest bit of heartfelt fear.
Because behind him, stood the Ten Elders.
The Ten Elders’ Association represented the Ten Great Sacred Grounds of Martial Arts of the Human Race.
And at this moment, there were several Martial Dao Emperors, in the middle of the Military Ministry Building, already ready, once this Martial Dao Emperor beside Li Mu made a move, what was waiting was the merciless suppression of five or six Martial Dao Emperors.
The jig is up.
“Brother, watch me avenge you.”
White Rushan’s heart burned with a scorching fire of vengeance.
His younger brother, Bai Ruyun, along with Lin Yuquan, had died at the hands of Li Mu in the battle of the Thunderfire Camp. Bai Rushang clearly remembered how angry and sad he was at the time when he intercepted Daoist Green Bull and thought that the situation was settled when he returned to the Thunder Road Ancestral Mountain and was greeted with the news of his brother Bai Ruyun’s death.
That’s his own brother.
He vowed to avenge his brother’s death.
And today, the opportunity presents itself.
In the middle of the Bright Night Division fortress, silhouettes slowly came out like a tidal wave.
Walking at the front were Li Mu, Daoist Green Ox, Sword Epileptic, and the others.
Bai Rushang’s gaze was like a knife, all of a sudden, it tightly stabbed at Li Mu’s body, the icy wind and snow in his eyes spread a little bit, letting the surrounding air, all of a sudden, drop like several dozens of degrees.
“Li Mu, the decision of the Ten Elders Council has been made, you broke into the Thunder Great Camp, brutally killed your fellow robes, for your own selfish desires, heartless and unscrupulous, your crime is unforgivable, the Ten Elders Council has ordered you to bind your own cultivation and follow me to the Ancestral Mountain of the Thunder Road to give thanks for your crime, and to be disposed of at your own discretion.”
Bai Rushang said slowly, word by word.
His eyes, never left Li Mu’s face.
But what made him slightly disappointed was that on this person’s face, there was no imagined expression of despair, anger or disbelief and so on, but a kind of faint calmness, as if it was in a matter that had nothing to do with him.
But on the faces of Daoist Green Ox, Sword Epileptic, and the others, their expressions changed drastically.
Is this the final decision of the Ten Elders?
“That’s impossible.” Sword Epilepsy looked at Bai Ruyun angrily.
Daoist Green Ox also said, “Unless the people of the Ten Elders’ Council have gone mad, they shouldn’t have made such a resolution that turns its back on the people.”
Of course Bai Rushang recognized these two people.
As the same person of the Chaos World Human Race, they used to compete with each other for glory, and they couldn’t be more familiar with each other.
“Do you guys think that I would be stupid enough, here, to falsely rumor the Ten Elders Council’s decision?” Bai Rushan said.
Both Sword Epileptic and Daoist Green Ox choked at once.
It was true that Bai Rushang had hatred for Li Mu, but it was not so bad that he would falsely pass on the Ten Elders Council’s decision on an occasion like today, with thousands of people watching, or else he himself would not want to live.
What happened at the Ten Elders meeting?
“Li Mu, confess your sins.”
As soon as Bai Rushang raised her hand, a set of silver-colored alchemy shackles were thrown directly at Li Mu’s feet. Shackles dedicated to imprisoning martial arts powerhouses, once fastened, they could temporarily seal the cultivation of powerhouses below the Heavenly Exaltation Realm.
Li Mu smiled faintly and took this yoke and stepped on it.
Bai Rushang said faintly, “What? Could it be that you want to disobey orders?”
Li Mu held his head high and said, “I, for one, am not guilty.”
“Hehe,” Bai Rushan laughed coldly, “Very good, very good, in fact, I also hope that you will resist your orders, so that I don’t have to wait until I travel to the Thunder Road Ancestral Mountain, right now, I can make my move to kill you.”
Powerful lightning energy surged out of Bai Rushan’s body.
Li Mu also laughed, “It’s not that I’m exaggerating, if you make a move now, the first person to die is definitely not me, believe it or not?”
In conjunction with Li Mu’s words, in the Bright Night Division, the Old Godly Cleric’s emperor realm aura suddenly rose.
Bai Rushang only felt a Pei Ran Muo Gui Qi, will lock themselves, there is a kind of pull one hair moves the whole body of the destruction of the sense of descent, so that he did not dare to act rashly, face all of a sudden, it became embarrassed up.
“Senior, this is a decision of the Ten Elders Council.” Bai Rushang said in a deep voice.
The Old Magus sat in the middle of the Bright Night Division’s great hall and didn’t answer him.
“Lord Li, you must not act in a moment of anger.” Xiao Ruyi, the head of the Security Department, saw that the situation was not right and quickly said, “The resolution of the Ten Elders’ Council is irresistible, if you confess first, there is still room for things to be turned around, at this time, if you are disobedient, there is no one under the sky that can save you, please think twice.”
Saying this, Xiao Ruyi was really thinking about Li Mu.
Fighting against the resolution of the Ten Elders’ Council, this kind of thing, is simply impossible.
Even the Martial Emperor couldn’t do it.
This will only lead to a quick death.
“I’ll go to the Ten Elders, I’ll convince them ……,” Sword Epileptic roared.
Duan Dice and Song Bei and other masters and armorers of the Ming Night Division, also clamor to go to the Ministry of War to petition, although Li Mu driving the Ming Night Division is only a short period of time, but the atmosphere and confidence brought to the Ming Night Division, but the past two hundred years have not been there, especially the anger of the crown to avenge the death of Li Zhen, but also to win the support and respect for the Ming Night Division up and down the love.
Reimu waved his hand.
The crowd quieted down.
The voice of the old clergyman, came out from the great hall, saying, “I said to take you away before, you had to wait for a result here, and now that the result is out, there’s only disappointment, it’s time to go, isn’t it?”
Li Mu smiled bitterly.
Earlier, the old cleric said to take him away directly, but he insisted on staying and chose to wait.
He had to wait for the results, and wasn’t waiting for his fate to be pronounced.
Rather, he wanted to see how the human military department, the Ten Elders’ Council, would choose in the face of profit and justice.
Because there was one thing that Li Mu was clear about a long time ago, how could the high and mighty Emperor of Martial Arts really not know what was going on in the Thunderfire Camp, so the Ten Elders’ Council was convened not really to investigate the truth or to judge right and wrong, but rather, it was doing an exchange of interests and a weighing of justice.
Li Mu wanted to know whether the Council of Ten Elders, which was held up as the supreme right of the Human Race, was really presiding over justice and upholding the dignity of the race early on, or was it just an organization that exchanged interests and compromised with each other among the various Holy Lands?
That was the answer Li Mu was waiting for.
Of course, he is also clear in his heart, where there are people there is a jianghu, water to clear there is no fish, people to inspect there is no disciple, complete and absolute justice is not, do not allow the Ten Elders to do any trade-offs of interests is not right, compromises and exchanges like a precision instrument in the lubricant, to ensure that the machine’s normal smooth operation, which is inexcusable.
But this kind of compromise and exchange, if it is only for the sake of benefits and not for justice, is it the same as a machine with only lubricating oil and no parts, can it still be considered a machine?
And the result?
The answer Li Mu waited for chilled him.
If that was the choice of the Ten Elders, then he would have to make another choice of his own.
Li Mu raised his head, looked at Xiao Ruyi, and said, “It’s the military department that’s negative to me, not me that’s negative to the military department.”
Xiao Ruyi’s heart shook.
Although these words had a flavor of treason, they were like heavy hammers that contained an inexplicably powerful force, ruthlessly smashing into the hearts of the three major ministry heads, Xiao Ruyi, Yelu Hui, and Wu Luyi, causing their hearts to jump.
