The Divine Martial Stars - Chapter 1048

Chapter 1048 Increase in Cultivation

For the Yu Mansion, today was indeed a disaster day.

The title of the chief commander of the Thunderflame Clan could make anyone feel intimidated at any time. However, the Yu Mansion met the Inquisition that had just been taken over by Li Mu. Since Li Shang was ordered by Li Shang, he didn’t hold back at all. The well-equipped armored soldiers of the Inquisition hadn’t fought like this all these years. They went up to the other party and beat them up. The people of the other party began to cry and howl in the yard.

“Arrogant.”

The Eldest Young Master rushed up with a roar.

Li Shang took action personally and kicked the young man in the Great Way Realm to the ground. Then he was unable to struggle.

“Big brother!” The Second Young Master rushed up. However, his neck was grabbed by Li Shang. His True Energy was scattered, and he was thrown aside.

“I’ll fight you to death.” The Grand Madam rushed up with threatening gestures.

Li Shang pointed in the air. Then the woman couldn’t move.

“If any of you dares to resist the Inquisition again, you’ll be killed without mercy.”

The voice of Li Shang resounded in the mansion.

The servants and guards were all dizzy and collapsed to the ground as if they were drunk, including Yu Zhen about to escape after he found the situation not good.

“Stop!”

An expert in the Way Sage Realm in the Yu Mansion tried to stop them.

“Old Liu, be quick to kill him!” The Grand Madam screamed.

The Executive called Old Liu was a black-bearded swordsman in a cyan robe. He held a long sword. His skills were indeed extraordinary. However, Li Shang’s strength was a little higher than his. Moreover, the Inquisition was not here for a martial arts competition. Immediately, several other experts joined forces and captured him in less than 10 minutes.

“Catch him.”

Li Shang pointed at Yu Zhen.

At this moment, Yu Zhen wanted to slap himself a few times. If he had known it earlier, he would have hidden. In that way, he wouldn’t have jumped out and said he was Yu Zhen. Now it was too late to disguise himself.

“Why did you catch me? Why?” Shocked out of his wits, he roared hysterically.

His cultivation was low because he was spoiled. Among the three Young Masters, he was the weakest. He couldn’t resist at all. Then he was handcuffed and dragged out of the gate.

“Let go of my son.” The Grand Madam couldn’t move, but she screamed at the top of her voice, “When the Master comes back, I will make you suffer a lot. You are dead meat.”

Li Shang sneered. “Then tell your Master to come to find us.”

The Inquisition withdrew.

Outside the gate, the onlookers looked at each other in confusion.

Yu Sanlun, the chief commander of the Thunderflame Clan, was a ruthless man. However, his gate was smashed, and even his youngest son was taken away. When did the Inquisition become so tough?

“I have broken through again.”

Li Mu came out of the cultivation room with a satisfied smile.

The Battlefield of Chaos was truly rich in Spiritual Qi. In the camp of the Inquisition, there was a tactical deployment left by a master, so the Spiritual Qi was extremely abundant. Cultivating here would yield twice the result with half the effort. After returning from the Muddy Land and cultivating for six hours, he finally entered the third stage of the Great Way.

“At this rate, I will enter the Way Sage Realm after a month.”

Li Mu was satisfied.

He came to the Inquisition to perform his duties mainly to avenge the villagers who had died in Oststern. For Li Mu, it was just a part-time job. Li Mu valued the Sacred Deathmatch in the Battlefield of Chaos half a year later the most. Only by honing his cultivation through battles could he improve his strength.

If he could enter the Celestial Master Realm in half a year, he would be more confident in participating in the Sacred Deathmatch.

When Li Mu arrived at Bright Night Hall, Li Shang was already waiting outside.

“Your honor.”

“How’s it going?”

“The person has been carried here.” Li Shang described what had happened in the mansion.

Li Mu nodded and said with satisfaction, “Very good. Lock him up in the dungeon. Go and interrogate him yourself and figure out why he made things difficult for the descendants of the Yun Family.”

Li Shang said, “Yes.”

As soon as he turned around and took a few steps, Li Mu said, “By the way, send some people to investigate all those who have sacrificed their lives for the Inquisition. Are their descendants alive? How are they doing? You should also care about those who have retired. If they need our Inquisition to help, don’t be stingy.”

Li Shang turned around, knelt on one knee, and said loudly, “On behalf of those old brothers, thank you, your honor.”

Li Mu waved his hand.

Li Shang left.

After thinking for a while, Li Mu asked someone to go to the Magic Works Department of the Military of Man to apply for a Transmitting Array that led directly to Oststern from the Inquisition.

Huining City was the place where the Military of Man was located. It was heavily guarded, and various enchantments and defensive tactical deployments were set up in layers. In particular, the Transmitting Arrays could only be set up after they were approved by the Military of Man. It was almost impossible to break through these enchantments even if he set up a Transmitting Array privately. Even if it could break through those enchantments, he would be severely punished for violating the laws of the Military of Man.

After that, someone came to report that the people of the Thunderflame Clan had already arrived outside the fortress and knelt at the gate, including the chief commander, Yu Sanlun.

Li Mu didn’t want to pay attention to this thing. He went straight back to the practice room and continued to cultivate.

“What? How could Master hasn’t shown up yet?”

The Grand Madam of the Yu Mansion was burning with anxiety. She walked around the hall and said, “Have you sent someone to report the thing about Third Young Master?”

The Eldest Young Master said, “Yes, but the second commander of the Thunderflame Clan asked me to tell you not to look for my father within three days, and he will return to the mansion after three days.”

“Three days later?” The Grand Madam went mad and said, “Doesn’t that mean my son has to stay in prison for three days? No! You go find your father’s friends and ask them to find a way to save Zhen’er.”

The Eldest Young Master said, “Mom, I have found them, but I am afraid that this matter is difficult. I have also heard some news. I am afraid that even my father can’t solve it.”

“What? Can’t your father solve it?” The Grand Madam was stunned and said, “What is the background of the other party?”

The Eldest Young Master told her what he had heard about the Sage-gathering Pavilion.

The Grand Madam fell into a chair, and her heart was cold. “There is such a thing. What should we do?”

In the past, as long as she mentioned her husband’s name, any trouble would be solved. But this time, she panicked.

At this moment, a servant came in and reported, “Madam, Young Master, a guest has come and wants to help you.”

“Who is it?” The Grand Madam was shocked.

The servant said, “The person said he was sent by the Master.”

“Really?” The Grand Madam was ecstatic. She immediately stood up and said, “Be quick to invite him in.”

Three days later, Yu Sanlun, the commander of the Thunderflame Clan, and the others left with gloomy expressions after kneeling for three days.

From beginning to end, they had never seen Li Mu.

Yu Sanlun and the others thought that Li Mu would come out to humiliate them, so they were mentally prepared. However, they didn’t expect Li Mu didn’t even come to mock them, which made them feel even more resentful and ignored.

Yu Sanlun hated Li Mu to the extreme. He suppressed his hatred for the time being. Instead of returning to the Thunderflame Clan, he went home first.

Unexpectedly, not long after he entered the gate, he learned from the Grand Madam that his son, Yu Zhen, had been arrested.

Clang!

“Little thief Li Mu, you’ve gone too far!”

Yu Sanlun was so angry that he trembled all over. He threw the teacup in his hand to the ground.

“Master, don’t you know about this matter? The person you sent that day said you already had the plan to use the Yun Family to deal with the Inquisition,” the Grand Madam said with a puzzled look.

“The Yun Family?” Yu Sanlun said, “I’ve never sent anyone here.”

“Is it also fake that the Yun Family has hidden a valuable treasure? That man said that as long as we dig out the precious treasure, Li Mu will go die.” The Grand Madam said, “Was that man lying to me?”

“The Yun Family has a great treasure? Is it about the Chief of the Inquisition who committed suicide?” Yu Sanlun was stunned. Then he realized something and said, “Tell me more about it in detail.”

After a few days, what happened at the entrance of the Sage-gathering Pavilion spread throughout Huining City. Moreover, through some channels, even some high-level figures in other lands knew about the thing.

Wind and clouds swirled everywhere, undercurrents surging.

The operation of the Inquisition everywhere finally became smoother. Many departments and people no longer overtly agreed but covertly opposed as before. Even the Inspectors felt this change. This department, which had been suspended for two hundred years and only existed in name, was now full of vitality.

Li Mu practiced all the time and improved quickly.

Two days later, Song Bie and the others brought back the people involved in the Roaming Dragon Army from the Commandery of Legion Kommodore. The journey was quite smooth.

“Give me the results after the interrogation.”

Li Mu gave Song Bie instructions after meeting him.

He didn’t do these things himself.

Li Shang sorted out some of the Martyrs’ families and retired old brothers of the Inquisition in the past hundreds of years and presented a relatively detailed proposal. Li Mu read it carefully and signed it.

One day, Ying Bing and Duan Gu returned.

“Your honor, Chief Lin Jingxin has already gone to the eastern front line and cannot be transferred back for the time being.”

“Your honor, Miss Ye Ying has withdrawn from the army and is in closed-door training at Grandiflora Summit. She can’t be transferred back.”

The two of them didn’t bring the two people back and looked a little ashamed.

Li Mu nodded and said, “Have you seen Lin Jingxin and Ye Ying?”

“No.”

“The Ye Family told us.” The two people said.

The Inquisition had not been operating for more than a hundred years, and its influence was not as good as before. Even if Ying Bing and Duan Gu were both Sword Envoys, they could not affect the will of these big families of the Military of Man.

Li Mu nodded and said, “Well, you can leave now.”

The two of them complied.

It was unexpected and reasonable.

The big families like the Ye Family and the Li Family wouldn’t rashly get involved in such a big thing.

Li Mu thought for a while and finally gave up the idea of mobilizing Xiao Jianfei to the Inquisition to assist him. Xiao Jianfei was just a small potato. He was unable to prove it. On the contrary, it might harm him.

Li Mu made up his mind to do it alone.

The clock ticked by.

Half a month passed.

“The fifth stage of the Great Way.”

These days, Li Mu only felt his cultivation had improved by leaps and bounds, and he had improved fast.

This sort of meditation seemed to be extremely important.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The golden bell in the practice room rang.

“Hmm? It seems something big will happen.”

Li Mu got up and went out of the practice room.

The golden bell was used for emergency transmission.

“Your honor, something has happened to the Yun Family in the Muddy Land.” Li Shang reported with an anxious look.
