Great Li Martial God

Li Musheng blew out the palace lamp burning in his room, casually picked up the young armored soldier from under the bed, and in a flash disappeared from the room.

The moonlight was bright tonight. Li Musheng, carrying a person, moved so fast under the bright moonlight that he didn’t reveal even half a shadow.

He followed the thread of true qi in his hand, searching toward a certain place in Shangyang City.

The Great Li imperial capital covered an extremely large area, with a total of seventy-two wards divided by four long streets running north-south and east-west: Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise, and White Tiger.

Each ward in Shangyang City was as large as an entire Shun’an City in Wan Province.

Moreover, the streets and alleys here were wider, and the houses were arranged in neat rows with well-ordered variation, all far surpassing what Shun’an City could compare to. From this, one could see the magnificent prosperity of this imperial capital.

Without spending much time, Li Musheng arrived at Lanshan Ward, two wards away.

He carried the young armored soldier in his hand and landed silently in a courtyard, then glanced at the thread of true qi in his hand.

He confirmed that Cang Yinyue was in a room inside the courtyard. However, she clearly hadn’t noticed Li Musheng’s arrival at this moment.

”Such an exquisite little courtyard. Miss Cang is quite well-off.”Li Musheng looked around the courtyard and couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.

In this place where every inch of land in Shangyang City was worth its weight in gold, being able to buy a courtyard like this must have cost quite a bit.

At this moment, hearing Li Musheng’s voice, the person in the courtyard room finally reacted.

The window that had been lit suddenly went dark, and a dark shadow silently flew out from the darkness, appearing behind Li Musheng in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, a slender blade reflected a snow-white gleam under the moonlight and quietly rested on Li Musheng’s shoulder.

Li Musheng turned his head and used one finger to push aside the blade on his shoulder, looking at her, ”We’re old acquaintances at least. Miss Cang doesn’t need to greet me like this, does she?”

Cang Yinyue narrowed her eyes slightly. The blade in her hand retracted like a spirit snake into her sleeve and disappeared, while her face revealed a trace of suspicion, ”How did you find this place?”

”Naturally, I have my methods.”

Li Musheng smiled, but didn’t explain further. Instead, he threw the young armored soldier in his hand before her and said, ”Please interrogate this fellow carefully, Miss Cang, and see if you can get any clues about the Tianqi Secret Treasury from him.”

Earlier today in Aurora Pavilion’s great hall, Li Musheng had actually discovered that the armored soldier before him possessed Northern Qi Dark Energy. However, he hadn’t made a fuss about it at the time, but instead planned to find an opportunity to search for the key to the Tianqi Secret Treasury from him.

What he hadn’t expected was that this fellow couldn’t hide it and was actually discovered by the people from Six Doors.

Fortunately though, in the end he still fell into Li Musheng’s hands.

At this moment, Cang Yinyue stared at the young armored soldier on the ground, examining him for a moment, then suddenly exclaimed in shock, ”Could this be that remnant of Great Qi who escaped from Aurora Pavilion during the day?”

Although the Tianjin Guards and Six Doors had promptly sealed off news of the Aurora Pavilion incident, naturally they couldn’t hide it from Cang Yinyue. After all, she was not only a constable of Six Doors, but also a secret agent of the Hidden Intelligence Bureau.

”That’s right, it’s him.” Li Musheng nodded.

Hearing this, Cang Yinyue suddenly raised her head to look at him and couldn’t help but take a deep breath, saying, ”I heard from people in Six Doors that not only does this person cultivate Northern Qi Dark Energy, his martial arts cultivation is comparable to a Martial Dao Grand Master. Today Ji Feiyun and Gong Lishan working together were both severely injured by him.”

”If an expert from the palace hadn’t intervened at a critical moment, Ji Feiyun and the other would have nearly lost their lives on the spot. How exactly did you capture him?”

Facing Cang Yinyue’s questioning, Li Musheng shrugged his shoulders.

However, he didn’t hide anything either. He briefly recounted what had happened at Aurora Pavilion and the process of capturing the young armored soldier, saying, ”That’s how it went. I think you’re more experienced at interrogating people, Miss Cang, so that’s why I brought him over.”

Cang Yinyue’s gaze flickered uncertainly. Originally she had thought Li Musheng had hidden his strength before, and his true martial Dao cultivation was probably at the Innate Master level.

But the current situation was that he had actually single-handedly captured an expert comparable to a Martial Dao Grand Master.

She was very clear that even though the armored soldier before her had lost an arm and was seriously injured, he absolutely couldn’t be easily subdued by an ordinary grandmaster no matter what.

He must at least be a half-step Grand Master level expert.

Cang Yinyue speculated in her heart and suddenly felt an extreme curiosity about what fortuitous encounter Li Musheng had obtained.

A half-step Grand Master under twenty years old could be called one of the top martial Dao geniuses in the entire jianghu. Such people were all rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

As far as she knew, the fake prince currently imprisoned in the heavenly prison was a half-step Grand Master level martial arts expert.

And what she hadn’t expected was that the person before her very likely was as well.

One must know, that fake prince’s teacher was the Director of the Hidden Intelligence Bureau, an existence with divine martial Dao abilities. So what fortuitous encounter might Li Musheng before her have had?

”Miss Cang, shouldn’t you get to work?”

Seeing her suddenly standing there speechless, Li Musheng quickly spoke up to remind her.

Hearing this, Cang Yinyue let out a light breath, suppressing the thoughts in her heart, and looked deeply at Li Musheng.

Then she picked up the immobilized young armored soldier before her and walked toward the room in the courtyard.

Although what Li Musheng said about creating his own martial arts was complete nonsense, his martial Dao strength truly shocked her greatly.

Clearly, she had misjudged again!

”Give me half an hour. What you want to know, I’ll get every word out of him for you.”

As Cang Yinyue’s voice fell, the sound of a door closing came from the courtyard.

Seeing this, Li Musheng said ”thank you,” then looked around and with a leap landed on the courtyard rooftop.

The night was clear and bright. There wasn’t half a wisp of cloud in the sky. The deep blue firmament held a bright moon, and moonlight pure as snow poured over the entire imperial capital. The moonlight tonight was truly quite excellent.

There was nothing for Li Musheng to do next, so he simply sat on the roof ridge and looked up to admire the moon, feeling quite content for the moment.

”I hope there will be results tonight, otherwise who knows when I’ll find all six keys?”

Li Musheng’s face showed anticipation.

Just then, three figures suddenly flew up from a small alley in the distance.

One person fled in front, two people chased behind. All were using true qi to perform lightness skills, continuously leaping across alley walls, rooftops, and tree branches.

The direction the three were heading was right toward where Li Musheng was.

Seeing this, Li Musheng furrowed his brow slightly. His rare elegant mood of moon-gazing had been interrupted, and he was clearly somewhat unhappy.

However, thinking it was better to avoid trouble, he couldn’t be bothered to pay attention.

Soon, the three had already arrived nearby.

The person in front was a masked man. The two chasing behind were a woman in red and an old man.

Just then, the masked man noticed Li Musheng on the rooftop, and his gaze suddenly moved.

He pulled something wrapped in cloth from his bosom and threw it directly at Li Musheng, shouting at the same time, ”Little brother, this treasure is yours!”
