Chapter 221 – Deadly Town

Mu Jian Li secretly made a good decision on what should be done, unfortunately in the short term she didn’t have the chance to implement it, to be exact there wasn’t that atmosphere.

The martial artists who let go of the road to catch up were far more enduring than the martial artists known in Xue Mu’s world, the crowd traveled all the way at a fast pace, not needing to rest for three days and three nights, and simply encountered the city without entering it, so naturally there was no space of time to implement their ideas.

It was not easy to enter the Heron State boundary, Mu Jian Li had thought that the town ahead would be the first stop for Xue Mu to rest, but it turned out that just as everyone entered the first town, they saw a dead town.

There was not a single person in the town, every house was closed, standing on the street, looking at the wine flag hunting with the wind, while the surrounding area was empty, that kind of deserted and depressed eerie feeling made people’s bones creepy. Mu Jian Li could no longer get up those messy thoughts, the moment she stepped into the dead town, she turned into that awe-inspiring swordsman, her slender hand once again gripped the flying light, turned her head to look at Xue Mu, waiting for his opinion.

Xue Mu casually walked towards a residential house, reaching out to touch the door panel, the door was dusty, it was evident that it had been uninhabited for some time.

Xue Mu rubbed the dust in his hands, pondered for a moment, and directly broke down the door.

The house was neatly cleaned up, it was evident that it was an organized departure, not a temporary transformation into a dead zone. Mu Jianli looked around for a while and whispered, “It should be the Blameless Temple organizing people to evacuate.”

Xue Mu sighed, “There are countless towns and cities within a thousand miles of Heron State, organizing this kind of work can be quite troublesome, no wonder the Blameless Temple didn’t even have the heart to arrange for someone to be in charge of picking up the participants.”

This is indeed not easy, with the modern government’s organizational strength to do this kind of full evacuation is very troublesome, a sect’s organizational strength can reach this level is indeed remarkable, enough to prove the effective brainwashing of religion and the overall strength of the Blameless Temple, can also prove that unable to take care of the participating martial artists can not be counted as the fault of the Blameless Temple.

The so-called plague, from the perspective of modern science, was generally caused by the spread of viruses, which fit into Xue Mu’s cultivation. He closed his eyes and felt for a while, shaking his head slightly, ”Didn’t feel any special toxins. The organization evacuated but it’s better to be prepared than to suffer, the Blameless Temple is quite far-sighted. On the contrary, it’s this group of goods, Void Pure, who are still taking advantage of this time to fool around, do they really think that they won’t be affected themselves if the plague spreads all over the world? What a bunch of idiots.”

Zhuo Qingqing said, “But it can also be proved that this plague is not something the Devil Sect did, otherwise the energy wouldn’t be focused on robbing the road.”

“Well, that’s true, if it was done by Void Pure and the others, they should have tried to expand the results of the battle, what the hell is running off to hijack the road.” Xue Mu thought for a moment and asked, “Are there any more Devil Sect Poison Sect surviving?”

“The Devil Sect does have the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, which researches poison development.” Zhuo Qingqing replied, “But they are very weak ah …… the kind that is suppressed by the Pill King Valley to the point where they can’t breathe, and their cultivation is also very weak, not much of a presence, and even more unlikely to dare to commit this kind of shocking crime. Even if it’s Jian Li alone, as long as he carries the treasure that can’t be invaded by all poisons in his body, he’s sure to go and exterminate their door, where did they get the bear heart and leopard guts to fight with the Blameless Temple.”

Xue Mu bowed his head and pondered. It was possible that the plague was just a natural disaster, but in this kind of world where all kinds of cultivation of all kinds of exotic beasts existed, he was more inclined towards the possibility of a man-made disaster, and had to think about it a few more times.

Of course Zhuo Qingqing had a point, if it was a declining Poison Sect, where would it get the guts to provoke the Blameless Temple? If it was just an accidental result of researching poisons, the Blameless Temple’s strong Buddhist sect, the means to drive away poisons and suppress evil should be enough to deal with it.

Is it really a natural disaster?

In the middle of the conversation, a few young girls swept in successively and saluted, “Your Excellency.”

While saluting, their eyes glanced towards Mu Jianli, looking curious.

It was Xue Mu’s personal guard girls who came first. Xue Mu waved his hand and said, “Why are you sizing up others? Tell us about the situation ahead.”

“The source of the plague came from the sea in the southeast, the seaside fishing villages all died, and then it started spreading to Heron State. Yuan Zhong personally sat in the southeast and used his supreme cultivation to at least contain it a bit, but it couldn’t be eradicated, and even the source of the plague couldn’t be analyzed. Later, Pill King Valley sent ……”

The guards said this, paused for a moment, and then looked at Mu Jian Li before saying, “The Medicine Fairy of the Medicine King Valley arrived at the seashore, and I wonder if there’s any progress at the moment.”

Mu Jian Li thought that they were purely looking at themselves because of the relationship between Medical Fairy Xiao Qing Wu and herself belonging to the same Absolute Color Spectrum. She did not expect everyone heart this back to think: “Gongzi since received Mu Jianli, this back to absolute color spectrum six people actually only left a medical fairy on the flush …… This is in the end Jiangshan absolute color spectrum or Gongzi’s family tree …… ”

This is indeed a very magical thing, Xue Mu himself felt that this absolute color spectrum is not particularly destined with himself. He also didn’t let his personal guards continue to brainstorm, and asked, “Then the towns ahead have all been emptied?”

“No, it’s just that the peripheral villages and towns have been concentrated and moved to the county town, so that the strong men of the Blameless Temple can concentrate on taking care of them. Moving forward into the county town, it is overcrowded.”

“What about Heron State City?”

“Heron State City is fine, it was originally a top city with a population of millions, receiving the neighboring residents and tens of thousands of Jianghu people is still more than enough. If Your Excellency goes at this moment, it will still be more lively.”

Xue Mu was a bit surprised, “Jianghu people are all stationed in Lushu City? If you have cultivation, don’t you go to the plague area to help?”

“And not learn medicine poison, go also useless ah, in vain to add to the chaos only, even the young master is in Luzhou City ……”

Young Lord …… Yue Xiaochan.

Xue Mu’s heart jumped, this time he couldn’t even help but look at Mu Jian Li.

Mu Jianli was also looking at him.

The scene when they first met floated in their minds at the same time: Xue Mu and Yue Xiaochan walked side by side towards the city gates, Mu Jianli entered the city with her sword in her hand, and both sides brushed past each other. After a brief conversation, Yue Xiaochan took Xue Mu’s hand and floated out of the city.

Mu Jianli remembered that time her sword heart warning was directed at Xue Mu. …… Could it be that it was a warning that she was going to fall into this man’s hands. ……

There is also the scene of the two of them holding hands, at that time, they looked over, where would they go to care about this kind of idle matter of others ah? But now remember, the scene of those hands holding each other is actually incomparably piercing. Could …… Xue Mu heart really that person …… is Yue Xiaochan?

At that time to see Yue Xiaochan demonic qualifications, had thought that that may be their lifelong enemy, after all, a righteous young generation of the first swordsman, a devil’s young generation of super demon, may have to fight for a lifetime, destiny entanglement. But unexpectedly, the enemy is not in the battle of the righteous devil, but, but the love enemy?

But but but …… Yue Xiaochan and Xue Qingqiu are not master and disciple, Xue Mu shouldn’t be her uncle or master grandpa?……

Mu Jianli’s gaze was a bit fluttering, she didn’t even know where she was thinking.

When she came back to her senses, she realized that she had already naturally followed Xue Mu around, leaving the unoccupied room just now a long way away ……

I heard Curry Night communicating with Xue Mu, “Father you want to manage this plague thing?”

“It’s not that I want to control it, it’s just that I’m a little curious, and at the same time, this thing also fits my cultivation direction, so naturally I’m a little interested. Of course this matter has little to do with us, so it’s fine to ignore it, it’s just ……”

“What’s wrong?”

“Do you guys have the feeling that Xie Changsheng’s journey south with his injuries might have something to do with this?”

Everyone froze, Zhuo Qingqing couldn’t help but say, “Can’t see the connection ah. Yan Shi and the plague don’t seem to have anything to do with it.”

“I also just have a hunch. The supine master research is to be backed up by a large amount of resources, I never believe that he alone can get it up, there should be an organization. And Xie Changsheng was injured, instead of hiding and recuperating, he went south, and inevitably needed a reason. This plague happens to be a clue ……”

Mu Jianli suddenly said, “You guys are talking about Shen Ji Sect traitor Xie Changsheng?”

Xue Mu turned his head and said, “Yes, you have information about this person?”

“I once heard a senior uncle of this clan stationed in the capital mention that back then, Xie Changsheng was able to escape the capital amidst a siege by Department Six’s Divine Mechanic Sect, and there was a ghost in the matter.” When Mu Jianli said this, she apologized a bit, “As for the specific matters, Jianli never cared about these gossips before and didn’t ask in detail at all.”

Xue Mu was shocked, “No wonder Xie Changsheng would use the double doll to fool Xiahou Di at that time, I thought he was acting cautiously, now it seems that Department Six has a mole! If Xiahou Di is ignorant, something will happen sooner or later!”
