I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Chapter 310 "You're scared!"

"Master Lai, that kid..."

At this time, several men dressed as warriors came running hurriedly from outside the alley.

Lai Bujiu waved his hand with a haughty look on his face:

"If you don't have any good sense, that guy is not simple!"

"So, such a big fat sheep, you just let him run away like this?"

Hearing his subordinates' words, Lai Bujiu touched the large ingot in his arms and said calmly:

"Don't worry, is it that easy to enter the inner city?"

"That kid is stupid, and Master Lai didn't fool him. When he hits a snag, of course he will think of Master Lai first!"

At this time, another little brother with pockmarks all over his face started to flatter.

In the distance, Li Mu stood in the shadow under the roof, listening to the conversation between several people, and he had an idea in his mind.

Li Mu was originally wondering if Lai Buji was really a man who would do things for money. The hexagram just now showed that the news from Ran Nu was obviously not false.

It seems that entering the inner city is a hassle.

As for the whereabouts of these Rannu people, it was obviously no secret.

But Li Mu didn't think that the money was wasted.

He looked down at the "map" he had just bought, and found that this mysterious city was much larger than he had expected.

He suppressed his nausea, roughly memorized the location on the map, and threw the rag aside with disgust.

I don’t know what it was used for before, but there was a strange smell on the torn linen.

Relying on his memory, Li Mu quickly found the direction of the inner city.

Along the way, we discovered that this strange city really looked like an ordinary city-state, and there were not only Xia people here.

The Rannu people, the Rongyi people, and even many other races that Li Mu had never seen before.

I remember that when Wei Pingran mentioned this before, he was not very surprised.

Apparently, this place was not considered top secret in Xing Dynasty.

"If it's not within the territory of the Xing Dynasty, then the emperor really doesn't care at all?"

Li Mu was really puzzled. Logically speaking, this place was not far from the border of Xing Dynasty.

If Li Mu were the emperor, he would definitely not allow such a place to exist nearby.

While thinking, Li Mu had already arrived at the gate tower of the inner city.

But the main door was tightly closed, and there was no sign of a guard on the building door.

"Does it mean that it's difficult to enter, that is, no one is allowed to enter at all?"

Li Mu frowned, without thinking much, and leaped into the city.

Looking at the surroundings, which were far more prosperous than the outer city, Li Mu was stunned.

"You're coming in already?"

Obviously, there were not as many people in the inner city as in the outer city. Apart from the dim light, there was no difference between the inner city and other city-states in the Xing Dynasty.

The people walking on the street don't look like vicious people.

The more Li Mu looked, the more confused he became. This was too different from what Li Mu had expected at the beginning.

It was a peaceful scene. Compared to the depressing atmosphere of the outer city, the inner city was even a little warm.

Big red lanterns are hung everywhere, making the scene very festive.

Li Mu cursed himself inwardly, thinking, "Isn't it good to be easy?"

He simply stopped thinking about it and after determining his direction, he leaped towards West Street.

However, the further Li Mu walked, the more confused he became.

Comparing it with the 'map' bought from Lai Bujiu before, he suddenly discovered that the layout of this inner city was exactly the same as that of Xing Dynasty's capital, Jing'an City.

"Is there a royal palace in this city?"

Resisting the urge to find out what was going on, Li Mu went to West Street first.

Soon they found the yard that Lai Bujiu described.

The yard looked nothing special.

Li Mu held the thunder in one hand and took out two copper coins with the other, with a hint of joy in his eyes.

“It’s really here!”

Then I felt a little regretful and decided to make up for it when I go back this time.

Apparently, there was something in this mysterious city that could block his divination skills.

"The Onmyoji's Imperial Master seems to be very proficient in divination..."

After thinking about it in his mind, Li Mu sneaked into the house directly.

There was obviously nothing special about the layout of the house.

Li Mu carefully searched the house and determined that there were only twelve people in the house, five of whom were in the outer house, and the remaining seven were in a courtyard in the inner house.

Obviously, the most likely place where Prince Yan was being held was there.

What surprised Li Mu was that these Ran slaves were obviously not very old, and looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old.

"Are all Rannu people so gifted in martial arts? Or..."

Li Mu suddenly had an idea. He arrested these people and forced Ran Nu to tell him whether he had any quick-learning external martial arts skills.

After all, the minimum requirement to enter the rank is to cultivate both inside and outside, and to have the physique reach the first level at the same time.

And Li Mu happened to be stuck on this external martial arts.

"You are afraid!"

At this moment, a low and strange voice suddenly came from Li Mu's mind.

The voice was so ethereal and hoarse that it was hard to tell whether it was a man or a woman.

But Li Mu could clearly know that this was his own voice.

"Why do you want to pursue an illusory realm? You have the "Hidden Sword Art" and a yard full of beautiful wives and maids, what are you hesitating about?"

"Compared to entering the realm of the rank, isn't it much easier to surpass them, surpass those who want to harm you?"

"you shut up!"

Li Mu growled, and when he looked up again, a faint black light appeared in his eyes.

At the same time, twelve figures appeared beside Li Mu and surrounded him.

Obviously, the previous growl had alarmed these Rannu people.

"Natsuto? How did you find this place?"

"Don't talk nonsense, just kill him!"

These Rannu people were clearly speaking Rannu language, but Li Mu found that he could actually understand it.

Hear the word kill.

Li Mu's eyes were blank for a moment, and then his expression became more ferocious.

"kill me?"

Before he finished speaking, the twelve Ran slaves had already drawn their weapons and attacked Li Mu together.

Li Mu kicked back, grasped Shuo Lei in his hand, then swung the spear and swept it across.

However, the invisible sword energy that was supposed to be slashed out turned into a dark lightning bolt through the spear.

With a loud noise like thunder, the twelve Ran Nu masters turned into real little black men, standing there motionless.

A flash of astonishment flashed across Li Mu's eyes. He was about to look at the Shuo Lei in his hand, but then his ears moved and he looked towards the house behind him, growling:

"There is still one!"

As he spoke, a figure flashed and jumped into the house.

As the twelve men passed by, the Rannu people were like burnt paper, turning into powder in an instant, with no remains left.

"King Yan?"

In the room, Li Mu tilted his head and looked at the King of Yan who was imprisoned in the blood-red cage. A trace of struggle flashed across his face, and he asked in a low voice,

"What is your purpose?"

Hearing Li Mu's voice, the King of Yan slowly raised his head, and then a hint of shock appeared in his eyes, as if he couldn't believe that the person in front of him would be Li Mu. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Li Mu say:

“Nothing…”

Immediately, Li Mu was seen holding up his spear. The tip of the spear seemed to be wrapped in inky black lightning, accompanied by a low thunderous sound.

"Mu'er! This is not the place you should be. Go away, leave here!"

Hearing the voice of King Yan, Li Mu paused his movements, and the thunder wrapped around the tip of the spear disappeared instantly.

"What are you waiting for? Are you the only one who has never doubted? Think about Ping'er, the couple..."

"I told you to shut up!"

Li Mu roared angrily and thrust the spear in his hand into the ground.

But the next moment, he pulled it out again, and the dark black lightning wrapped around the gun again, and the low humming sound in his mind also sounded.

""If you don't dare to do it, just leave it to me. You can blame everything on me, or you...""

"Wait! No, don't!"

"Li Mu, I want to eat more. I want to eat more..."

At this moment, the necklace on Li Mu's neck flickered slightly, and Hu Qingyao's unclear voice came to his ears.

Li Mu could even hear the sound of her smacking lips.

I slowly raised my head and felt my mind become clear. The dark energy in my eyes had disappeared.

She exhaled deeply, touched the snake-shaped necklace lovingly, and said to herself, "Thank you!"
