"Who are you?"
Zhu Fenglan reacted in time, her face filled with uncertainty and alarm as she looked at Li Musheng with extreme vigilance.
Although the other party looked young and she couldn't sense even a trace of martial Dao aura from him, the fact that he could knock back the Cangyuan Marquis and two elders from the Taiyin Yuan Sect with one move was enough to prove he was definitely not simple.
At the same time, the old woman and the pursued Shangguan Qingqing also temporarily stopped, all turning their gazes toward Li Musheng.
That scene just now had truly shocked them all. Under these circumstances, not acting rashly was undoubtedly the best choice.
At this time, Cang Yinyue's figure rapidly leaped through the distant night, arriving behind Li Musheng.
Her gaze was filled with shock and doubt, her face showing an expression of utter disbelief.
Although she hadn't seen anything clearly just now, she also knew it must have been Li Musheng who acted.
But this was really too frightening!
Not only did he send her foul-smelling father flying with one strike, but even those two elders whose martial Dao strength was clearly extremely powerful were similarly not his match in one move.
When she saw him last night, wasn't he only at half-step Grand Master?
He broke through in just one night?
But even if he broke through, he shouldn't be able to suppress this group of Martial Dao Grand Masters, should he?
Cang Yinyue's heart was full of doubts, not that she necessarily had to question Li Musheng.
Rather, for any martial artist, they deeply understood the difficulty of martial Dao cultivation.
Not only did it depend on talent, but it also emphasized accumulation and painstaking effort. Every advancement required spending enormous amounts of time and effort.
To say that someone as young as Li Musheng could reach the Martial Dao Grand Master realm, even searching through the entire martial world, one might not find a few such people.
At this time, seeing Cang Yinyue, Zhu Fenglan immediately narrowed her eyes, her expression cold as she said, "So you're the bitch who brought this helper."
Then she said to Li Musheng, "You'd better figure out clearly who you're dealing with."
"The Taiyin Yuan Sect behind me and Her Imperial Consort are existences you cannot afford to provoke. If you're sensible, leave quickly. Tonight I can treat it as if nothing happened."
Hearing this, Li Musheng simply ignored Zhu Fenglan's words completely.
He turned his head slightly to look at Cang Yinyue behind him and said, "Miss Cang, watch carefully. I'll only teach this kind of thing once."
Hearing this, Cang Yinyue was slightly stunned and hadn't yet reacted.
Then she saw Li Musheng lightly snap his fingers.
Next, Cang Yinyue watched in astonishment as the old woman who had stopped not far away suddenly bent over like a cooked shrimp, her entire person flying backward at an uncatchable speed.
At the same time, Zhu Fenglan and the two maidservants beside her were the same.
Instantly struck and sent flying by a terrifying invisible true qi, they all followed in the footsteps of the Cangyuan Marquis and those two elders. Their forms flew rapidly through the air leaving only afterimages, all crashing heavily into the courtyard.
Soon, another thunderous boom arose within the manor.
"You... how exactly did you do that?"
This time Cang Yinyue watched very clearly... hmm... she still completely didn't see Li Musheng make a move.
On the other side, the heroic-looking Shangguan Qingqing with the ponytail had her eyes wide as bells, her crystal lips parted so wide an egg could almost fit inside.
What had she just witnessed?
That old woman who was not far from her just went "whoosh" and was gone. By the time she reacted, the other party's entire person had already disappeared, leaving only the distant "bang" of a heavy object hitting the ground.
From beginning to end, Shangguan Qingqing hadn't figured out what happened.
After being stunned for quite a while, she subconsciously looked toward Li Musheng, "He did all this? This is too terrifying!"
...
At the same time, facing Cang Yinyue's inquiry, Li Musheng waved his hand with a composed expression.
He led Cang Yinyue toward the direction where Zhu Fenglan and the others had fallen, coming to the courtyard where everyone had crashed into the ground.
At this moment, several people were all trapped in ground pits, completely stripped of their ability to resist by Li Musheng's earlier strike.
Seeing Cang Yinyue still staring at him incessantly, Li Musheng knew what she was puzzled about.
He stroked his chin and said leisurely, "Miss Cang, when you reach my realm, it's just like this. You don't understand."
"Of course, even if I told you, you wouldn't comprehend it. You'll have to work hard at cultivation in the future."
Cang Yinyue: ...
...
Looking at Cang Yinyue, who now had a completely bewildered expression again, Li Musheng shook his head and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Sure enough, when it came to showing off, he was becoming increasingly masterful.
But this was also unavoidable. The force he used in his strikes had already been restrained very, very much.
If not for temporarily sparing these people's lives, they probably would have had not even a trace of their corpses left just now.
At this time, Li Musheng shifted his gaze to look into the courtyard before him.
The entire original courtyard had already collapsed, forming a sunken earthen pit.
In the soil of the pit, countless white bones of women were piled haphazardly. Under the hazy moonlight, they reflected a hair-raising ghastly white.
Some of these white bones maintained a semblance of human outline, while others had already shattered into pieces, scattered in various corners of the pit bottom.
Empty, crack-filled skulls, fragmentary ribs, and limbs chaotically intertwined together, inexplicably emanating a tragic aura. One could see that those women had all suffered inhuman torture before death.
At this moment, Cang Yinyue beside him also looked toward the deep pit. After seeing the shocking and horrifying scene before her, her entire person immediately became shocked and enraged, her complexion extremely ugly.
"None of them are good people!"
Li Musheng withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Zhu Fenglan and the others.
At this moment, the seven people lay among a pile of exposed white bones. Under Li Musheng's terrifying strike, their internal organs had all ruptured and meridians severed. They couldn't move even while lying there.
They could only move their still-intact eyeballs to look at this completely unfamiliar young man before them.
Li Musheng indifferently swept his gaze over the several people and nodded, "Perfect. I'll use you all to test the power of my Life and Death Talisman."
He had already improved upon the earlier prototype of the Life and Death Talisman martial technique. Using it to experiment on these people now was completely what they deserved.
Li Musheng flicked his fingers, and seven streams of invisible true qi fell into Zhu Fenglan and the others' bodies.
Instantly, the seven people lying in the pile of white bones began trembling all over. Their remaining intact blood vessels suddenly bulged, their eyes protruded like those of goldfish, and their bloodshot eyeballs grew larger and larger as if they would explode the next moment.
Within their bodies, countless densely packed tiny qi mechanisms wriggled madly like insects and ants, constantly pricking at everyone's nerves.
The itching pain like ten thousand ants gnawing made them all whimper, blood gurgling from their throats, their breathing becoming rapid, as if they would expire at any moment.
But they absolutely would not die immediately, only continuously maintaining this pain of struggling between life and death, unable to die even if they wanted to.
