All eyes fell on the Lady of the Clouds again.

However, the Lady of the Clouds did not become disappointed and angry because of jealousy as they had imaged. This most beautiful woman in the Ziwei Star Zone was still sitting there quietly. She looked graceful and tender, giving off a holy aura. She gazed at Li Yidao with her seemingly smiling eyes from the distance.

This…

Many people suddenly began to think more highly of Li Mu.

“He’s got a way with women.

“Even the most beautiful woman in the Star River is willing to watch him flirt with another woman. How on earth does he do that?”

Some practitioners were wondering if they should find an opportunity to ask Li Yidao about how to master their wives and concubines. Sometimes the big shots having big families and businesses and many wives and concubines would have problems with women, so it would be much easier for them if they learnt how to control their wives and concubines.

Many practitioners were staring at Li Mu.

“This is the second time Li Yidao tries to talk to Daji the little princess.

“Will he return without success like the first time?

“Will he make a miracle?”

Having learned from how Li Yidao had won the favor of the Lady of the Clouds, some people believed that Li Yidao had a mysterious magic power that they could not understand, see, or figure out. He could always complete some seemingly impossible things both on and off the Immortal-slaying Platform.

…

Daji felt a little scared when she saw the “ruthless man” wearing a mask coming over to her again.

A few moments ago, Li Mu drove Ye Tianxie, Duan Shenping, and the others away in an arrogant and domineering manner. That really scared her.

Wang Yanyi patted her gently on the shoulder. After that, he turned around and looked questioningly at Li Mu.

Li Mu said, “I have only a few words to say to little Daji. If she still doesn’t want to see me, I’ll turn around and leave right away.”

A strange smile suddenly flashed across Wang Yanyi’s face.

He nodded and whispered something in Daji’s ear.

The way that Daji looked at Li Mu suddenly changed. The vigilant look had disappeared, and she looked a little confused now.

Wang Yan turned around and left.

Li Mu slowly walked over to Daji. The natural qi of Xiantian Skill spread out, forming an invisible shield against eavesdropping.

Little Daji raised her head and looked at him.

“Mountains need not always be high, they’re famed if therein fairies abide. Waters need not always be deep, they’re hallowed where dragons are spied.”

Li Mu sent out his message.

Little Daji’s face suddenly began to beam with indescribable delight.

She looked like a lost little puppy that found its parents all of a sudden.

Back then, she was hunted down and fell on the ground by the gate of the Shack. Li Mu saved her. The four lines that Li Mu recited were the first stanza of the poem “Epigraph of My Shack”, which left a deep impression on her.

Little Daji stared fixedly at Li Mu as if she were trying to recognize him.

“Dad?” She looked confused, and her big clear eyes suddenly became misty.

Upon seeing that look, Li Mu felt like something suddenly hit the softest part of his heart hard.

He nodded slightly.

Little Daji cheered and jumped up happily.

She wanted to jump up and put her arms around Li Mu’s neck just like before, but she held back her impulse to do so at the last moment.

She suddenly remembered what Wang Yanyi had told her before.

“Dad, I’m fine and safe now. Don’t worry about me.” Daji lowered her voice. The mist in her eyes had completely disappeared. Her eyes were shining with delight, as if she had become another person, and happy vibes were swirling all around her.

Li Mu’s eyes grew a little moist.

Little Daji’s happiness was so simple.

The first thing that she said showed her worry about Li Mu instead of her own situation.

“She is really an innocent and considerate child.

“The innocent heart of a child.”

“Um, are they nice to you? If not, I can take you away from here.” Li Mu carefully hid his emotions as he smiled and winked at Daji.

Little Daji looked very cute, and her eyes were like two bright crescent moons. She lowered her voice and said, “Not bad. It’s just that they always force me to practice martial arts, and they want to choose a husband for me. I’m not going to get married. If I want to marry someone, I will marry Dad.”

Li Mu almost burst out laughing.

“Rest reassured. If you don’t want to get married, I will find a way to get you out of here,” Li Mu said.

“Okay.” Little Daji nodded like a chicken pecking for rice seeds. Then she said, “I want to go back to Taibai Mountain because I can live my life freely there. I don’t like this place. Only nanny will keep me company, and I rarely get to see Uncle Bai. Moreover, there are some guys who call themselves my brothers and sisters. They are very mean to me.”

As she said the last few words, she looked like she still had some lingering fears.

Li Mu immediately understood that Daji’s situation in the Heavenly Fox Clan was probably not as good as it seemed.

In fact, it made sense.

The Heavenly Fox Clan took Daji to the White Earth and Imperium Vulpes Divine City, and even such an influential figure like Bai Yuanshou adopted Daji as his daughter and made her the little princess. In fact, they did that just because Daji had a noble bloodline and the gift and potential for practicing. Otherwise, how could a little demon from an inferior world attract so much attention of the entire Imperium Vulpes Divine City?

How could a genius from the wilderness compare to their own flesh and blood?

That was exactly what Li Mu had been worried about, and that was also the reason why he had taken the risk of reconciling with Daji.

After all, the Heavenly Fox Clan was a large clan in the Star River. If they really regarded Daji as their own flesh and blood and did their best to train her, Li Mu would certainly wish Daji to stay. However, it seemed that they didn’t treat her like that.

It was worthwhile for Li Mu to have taken the risk of reconciling with her at the banquet.

“Daddy, I’ll wait for you to pick me up and be good. You have to be careful. My elder sister said that you would be in great danger if your identity was revealed.”

Little Daji looked reluctant to leave Li Mu, but after she finished speaking, she pulled away from Li Mu and left directly.

Looking at the fading figure of this cute little girl, Li Mu felt comforted, and his heart ached with pity for her.

This little girl had always been so well-behaved and sensible since he knew her.

Li Mu felt lost as he watched little Daji leave the main shrine hall escorted by several female guards of the Heavenly Fox Clan.

He turned around and removed the barrier. He suddenly froze when he looked up.

Wang Yanyi had been standing somewhere not far from Li Mu. No matter whether he was doing that intentionally or not, his figure happened to block the view of most attendees at the banquet from where Li Mu was talking with Daji, so they could not see what was happening over here.

“Don’t underestimate anyone,” Wang Yanyi said.

Confused, Li Mu pondered over Wang Yanyi’s words.

“The backgrounds and means of large tribes and clans in the Star River are more terrifying than you can imagine.”

Wang Yanyi said when he brushed past Li Mu.

Li Mu frowned slightly.

“Wang Yanyi seems to be giving me tips.

“About what?

“What I have done at this banquet is not likely to reveal my identity, unless he knows that my real identity is a sinner.

“Even if the Heavenly Fox Clan or the Heavenly Deity Clan wanted to investigate my background, it would take them some time.

“I can figure things out as long as my timing is good.”

Li Mu pondered as he walked over to Hua Xiangrong.

“Are you okay?” Seeing the thoughtful look in Li Mu’s eyes, Hua Xiangrong asked concernedly.

Li Mu smiled, gently held her slender hand, and shook his head.

For some reason, Li Mu became vigilant after Wang Yanyi reminded him. He suddenly realized that he seemed to have neglected something.

“But what have I neglected?”

For a moment, he couldn’t figure it out.

Most attendees were looking at Li Mu in a different way now.

Li Mu attempted to make contact with Daji the little princess for a second time, but it seemed that he failed to win her favor, because Daji left directly in the end. In fact, however, some people knew that he had achieved something when they saw Daji leaving in a slightly excited and delightful mood.

“This person is something!”

Duan Shenping the “Seven Luminaries Divine Bell”, Ye Tianxie the “Purple Flame Divine Spear”, and the others were at a loss for words.

Today, they were scared away by Li Mu when he grabbed the handle of his broadsword, and then they mocked him for overestimating himself and fighting over a woman with the young master of the Heavenly Deity Clan. However, it turned out that they were completely wrong. At the thought of that, they felt that their behaviors were immature, but they hated Li Mu, the “culprit”, even more.

“Mr. Ye, I’m afraid we have to join hands in the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm.”

“Why? Mr. Duan, don’t you have the confidence to deal with Li Yidao alone?”

“Oh? Do you meant that you have the confidence to kill Li Yidao by yourself?”

“Heh-heh, killing someone does not necessarily mean a direct confrontation. We can do that by a surprise attack.”

The two of them were communicating through messages that their minds sent out.

Somewhere not far away, Huangfu Chengdao, the young master of the Heavenly Deity Clan, was staring fixedly at Li Mu and the Lady of the Clouds. He could hardly contain his jealousy and anger when he saw Li Mu holding her slender hand tightly.

Just then, Feng Xingyun the “Nether Ghost”, who ranked second on the List of Heavenly Legends of the Star Regions, appeared in front of Huangfu Chengdao like a ghost. A few moments ago, because of this person’s words, Huangfu Chengdao had no choice but to invite the Lady of the Clouds to come to the banquet venue to perform a dance. Feng Xingyun said in a strange tone, “Heh-heh, stop looking at them. There’s no point in doing that. That woman has been taken away by Li Yidao. A woman that someone else can take away from you doesn’t belong to you in the first place, unless you can make Li Yidao disappear from the world.”

“I don’t need you to lecture me,” Huangfu Chengdao said angrily, “if I want some people, including you, to disappear from this world, they must disappear.”

Feng Xingyun the “Nether Ghost” smiled and said, “Really? I’m looking forward to it.”

Having said that, he turned around and left.

A surge of strong killing intent swept through Huangfu Chengdao’s heart.

He put the name “Feng Xingyun” on the death list in his mind.

Then, he fixed his eyes on Li Mu and the Lady of the Clouds.

“Li Yidao, you must die.”

This was Huangfu Chengdao’s first thought.

“However, there is no opportunity for me to take action at today’s banquet.

“I can’t take action outside the main shrine hall after the banquet is over, because that will cause a conflict between the Heavenly Fox Clan and the Heavenly Deity Clan.

“However, after we enter the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm… Heh-heh, Li Yidao, I have ten thousand ways to make you disappear from the world.

“The Lady of the Clouds must be mine.”

He had already begun to plan secretly.

At the same time, Feng Xingyun the “Nether Ghost” walked over to Li Mu.

Li Mu, who was sitting on the chair, raised his head and looked at Feng Xingyun.

He didn’t have a good impression of Feng Xingyun. He felt that this person seemed to be a schemer hiding in the shadows and giving off a gloomy aura. In his eyes, this person was even worse than the young master of the Heavenly Deity Clan.

Feng Xingyun looked at the Lady of the Clouds and then glanced at Li Mu. He smiled and said, “Heh-heh, congratulations for the reunion of two lovers who have been separated for many years. However, as far as I know, Huangfu Chengdao has taken possession of all the women that have been with him for more than three days.”

Many people heard his loud voice. They turned their heads and looked at Hua Xiangrong.

The look on Li Mu’s face changed abruptly. He suddenly stood up, his eyes flaming with strong murderous intent.

“What do you mean?” He glared at Feng Xingyun.
