The Divine Martial Stars

Chapter 50 Netherworld Dao-using Methods

“I am stronger than your master, and I will never betray my partner. You will get a brand new life. Oh no, A brand new life of a leopard. You can get a legal identity without wearing iron chains around your neck. You don’t have to continue to be a mountain villain. You can walk inside and outside our county or shuttle through the mountains…”

Li Mu squatted down and got closer to the black leopard with a kind attitude.

He believed that this black leopard could understand.

“Ah hoo…” The black leopard continued to roar.

It seemed to have understood Li Mu’s words, but it still resisted and rejected him.

Li Mu shook his head helplessly. “D*mn, I never heard that cats are so loyal! Is it because I am not handsome enough to become a ready cat poop-picker?”

Eventually, Li Mu abandoned the idea of forcibly taking the Giant Leopard away and slowly domesticating it.

“I will not force you if you don’t want to follow me. I will help you treat your wounds, and when you recover, you can be the king of Taibai Mountain Forests, but you cannot hurt people and affect their lives. Otherwise, I will personally kill you. I will pull out all your tendons and peel of your skin.” Li Mu felt very disgraced when he was rejected by that leopard but he still maintained good behavior.

He turned around and came to the mountain road.

“A group of mice, why are you still hiding? Roll out to here,” Li Mu shouted.

The second master of Qingfeng Citadel and other remaining minions slowly came out of the mountain stones one by one with terrifying looks. They looked at Li Mu as if he was a hell devil, and with all of their legs trembling, they began to kneel on the ground.

“Master, please spare our lives.”

“We were all forced to come here by Wu Biao.”

“We are willing to turn over a new leaf and make a fresh start in life.”

“I have to support an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old girl. Please spare my life…”

All the minions were trembling terribly, shouting they had a miserable life and begging Li Mu.

They did ever think about running away.

But they saw the process of how Li Mu had killed Wu Biao in a speed that could be compared to electricity or lightning. It seemed to them that Li Mu had grown two wings that could fly in the sky, so there was no chance for them to escape faced with that kind of speed even if they gave it to their best shot.

They would definitely die if they run away.

But if they did not run and beg for mercy, there was a little hope to live.

They knew that very well since they had been villains for so many years.

And their choices did play a role.

Li Mu had originally intended to kill all of the villains from Qingfeng Citadel.

But he was a person who could be persuaded with a good attitude rather than be threatened. Looking at these people kowtowing, he had hesitated to kill them and said, “Who has brought medicine for metal-inflicted wounds? Who knows how to treat wounds? Go there and handle that leopard’s wounds…”

“Master, I can do that…”

“I have medicine for metal-inflicted wounds.”

“I’m in charging of feeding the leopard at our citadel…”

Those minions who were eager to show their talents rushed there like wild dogs fighting for food.

In a short time, that Giant Leopard was taken medicine for its wounds.

Its limbs were also tied with simple splints, its fractures were fixed, and the bleeding wounds on the body were also temporarily sutured.

He had to admit that these mountain minions had excellence in healing and surviving.

Qingfeng Citadel had poor medical care, so their healing methods must be practiced during the time when they had treated many dead people.

The leopard had an amazing recovery ability.

A moment later, it struggled to get up.

The leopard looked up at Li Mu, and seemed to have a brain to think. It seemed that the leopard knew it was Li Mu who ordered them to save it.

“Wow… oh…” The leopard roared at Li Mu twice, nodded, and finally turned around, limping toward the deep mountains and dense forests.

Li Mu stared at it openmouthed.

“Oh, Man, are you really leaving?”

“No, why didn’t you big cat play the card according to the routine.

“I am so generous that I’ve ordered them to save you. Shouldn’t you finally change your mind and stay with me as my pet?

“How come you actually go?

“It’s so humiliating.

“D*mn, isn’t it in the novel, time-traveler will be like a powerful king and thus attract all kinds of amazing animals, such as mythological beasts or little dragons? And they will never be driven away? Why is the opposite situation when it comes to me?”

The county magistrate Li Mu who tried his best felt great frustration.

And that sense of frustration let him show a vicious look when he turned around to those minions of Qingfeng Citadel including their second master.

“Master, please listen to me.” Sensing that Li Mu might be unhappy, that second master knelt a few steps forward.

Numerous reasons emerged in his mind, so he said loudly when knelt on the ground, “Master, you have already killed Wu Biao, so you must not tolerate the countless crime that he made over the past few years, such as robbing homes, killing people and setting places on fire. I know that you are a chivalrous man with outstanding characteristics. However, although Wu Biao is dead, there are still bad minions and villains in Qingfeng Citadel. They still gather together and commit crimes. If you can forgive me for this time, I am willing to lead the way for you, my master. I will show you the road to our citadel, and help you subdue them to become your servants. Master.”

Li Mu put his attention on the middle-aged man dressed as a scholar.

Before that, he really didn’t notice the second master of Qingfeng Citadel.

“How many people are there in the Qingfeng Citadel?” Li Mu asked.

“There are about three or four thousand minions, including some martial arts masters in Joint-force level and third-rate martial arts masters in Joint-qi level…”

The second master of their citadel had played the role of the butler, so he told every detail of Qingfeng Citadel to Li Mu clearly, and did not dare to conceal anything, who was very cooperative.

“I dare you do not deceive me.” Li Mu touched his temples just like the little Qing Feng.

Li Mu pretended to be really solemn and wondered how to deal with those mountain villains. Suddenly he remembered one thing and said, “I heard the reason why Wu Biao was so powerful in the Northwest Wulin World was he had owned a great Dao-using methods book, which was the source of his Dao skills. Do you know where this book is now?”

That second master of Qingfeng Citadel quickly answered, “Master, I only saw Wu Biao reading that martial arts tactic books for few times, and I did not know the specific content. In the whole citadel, in addition to Wu Biao himself, only the young owner Wu Feilong had really seen it. But Wu Feilong was a good-for-nothing, and he just practiced it very casually, so he could not finish learning that Dao-using methods. Besides, Wu Biao was naturally suspicious, so he always hid that vital martial arts secret books with him.”

“Ah? Hiding with him?”

Li Mu changed his look and looked back towards that stone peak.

He had already beat Wu Biao into pieces, and there was no a complete part of him: his body was turned into meat paste, and his armor and clothing on his body were turned into flying ash… so that secret Dao-using methods book was also beaten into pieces?

“Why am I so unlucky?”

Li Mu, who was anxious and angry, had turned into a bolt of lightning, flown under the rocky peak and begun to search around.

That second master of Qingfeng Citadel approached Li Mu carefully and said, “Master, are you looking for the secret book of the Dao-using methods? The mountains here are steep and the forests are dense. That secret book fell from a high place, so it’s hard to know where it has fallen. It’s no less difficult for you to find it alone than looking for a needle at the bottom of the sea… More people means more strength, why don’t I ask my brothers to help you find it?”

Li Mu thought for a moment and nodded.

That second master of Qingfeng Citadel suddenly became overjoyed when heard that.

With a strong intention to make a contribution, he guided those minions who also wanted that to bend over to find that book around the near woods, rocks, crevices and grasses.

About fifteen minutes later.

Li Mu did not get anything.

He was already a little depressed.

But just then, one of the minions rushed out of the distant woods and shouted, “Found it. I found it. It must be it… master, come here and see it.” That minion was waving a golden book in one of his hands and running frantically towards him.

Li Mu was happy to hear that.

He flew over and took over the pamphlet.

It was a pamphlet tanned by some light yellow unknown material. It was palm-sized and kind of slippery, like jade. With one finger thick, it was extraordinarily heavy, which weighed at least twenty or twenty-five kilograms. And it seemed to be a piece of antique judging from the old cover.

And on its cover, there were four big letters that almost went through the page—

Netherworld Dao-using Methods.

Opening its front page, Li Mu looked roughly and immediately, rejoiced with wild excitement in his mind.

“Yes, this should be the Dao-using methods of Wu Biao. I’m absolutely sure.”

Now, Li Mu had made a small accomplishment in terms of Dao-using theories, so naturally, he could tell whether the book was true or not.

“I cannot tell what the secret book is made from, but it isn’t broken after my powerful punches…” Li Mu was very happy about finding that almost lost book, and thus did not in the killing mood.

He decided to temporarily let go of these mountain villains.

Because what the second master of Qingfeng Citadel had said did really make sense.

There were thousands of mountain villains in Qingfeng Citadel. After losing their leader, those desperados were likely to flee, just like fish flocking into the sea. To kill them one by one to prevent disasters was a big project and was really time-consuming.

Li Mu himself definitely did not have so much time to spend on that.

Therefore, it was better to let the second master of Qingfeng Citadel come back and control those mountain villains, which should reduce the harmfulness of Qingfeng Citadel in that way.

That was not the best approach, but it was the least harmful approach under current conditions.

So, Li Mu took that second master of Qingfeng Citadel to one side and comforted him after threatening him. After that, the second master of Qingfeng Citadel said to Li Mu that he would be a dog beside Li Mu in his life and would be absolutely loyal to Li Mu.

Li Mu did not care about that.

Eventually, a group of minions together with their second master of Qingfeng Citadel, who were all in the mood of fear and uncertainty after surviving from that big fight, disappeared into the distant mountain path.

Li Mu stood at the Hancha Intersection and scanned all around.

Bloody smell spread in the air.

Mutilated limbs and broken arms were found everywhere on the official road.

300 out of 400 elite Bloody Cavalry were annihilated, and the scene could be said to be very tragic.

Even if Li Mu, who could be called a killer after being forced to kill hundreds of pigs on the earth by the old faker, felt really nauseous at that time.
