Chapter 791: Chapter 791: Thousand-Year-Old Mummy, Li Mu_1

Sun Lin continued, "Alas, Heaven does not always align with man’s desires. After the First Emperor ascended the throne, he wished to secretly send men to bring Ah-Fang from the Zhao Kingdom to the Qin Kingdom. However, what the general brought back was Ah-Fang’s corpse... Sigh! Pitiful are the lovers in this world!"

After that, Sun Lin did not say anymore, and no one else asked any further questions.

You kept staring at that armored corpse and said to Sun Lin, "Professor Sun, who is that armored corpse?"

Sun Lin said solemnly, "Lord Wu’An."

"Which Lord Wu’An?"

There were four famous Lords Wu’An in history: Bai Qi of the Qin Kingdom, Li Mu of the Zhao Kingdom, Su Qin, and Xiang Yan of the Chu Kingdom; it is worth mentioning that all four Lord Wu’An had unfortunate ends.

"The Lord Wu’An of Zhao Kingdom, Li Mu!"

"It’s actually him!"

Li Mu was your idol since childhood, one of the four great generals of the Warring States Period. You could recite everything about Li Mu, but you never ever imagined that you would encounter this unjustly deceased general of the Zhao Kingdom here.

At this moment, a question emerged in everyone’s mind—what exactly was the relationship between Li Mu and Ah-Fang?

"Hehe, this is big news, I should take a wedding photo for these two," said Zhang Dadong as he readied his camera to take a picture. Suddenly, Wu Qiyi acted, snatching the camera from Zhang Dadong’s hands and tossing it to Wang Chongyang on the other side. With a piercing gaze and a tone of superiority that could extinguish all living beings, she said to Zhang Dadong, "Scram!"

Zhang Dadong shrank his neck and walked away, sticking out his tongue.

Turning to look at Wu Qiyi, you said to her, "Thank you."

Wu Qiyi did this entirely for you, knowing since childhood that Li Mu was your idol. When you were a child, your favorite saying was "When I grow up, I want to become a great hero like Li Mu!"

She smiled slightly and asked, "Could Jiu Xianmin be inside there?"

Shaking your head, you sighed, "I’ve looked already. There is no one else inside but those two."

"So, Jiu Xianmin isn’t here?"

Without speaking, you just shook your head.

Decisively, you turned and sat down on the stairs outside the grand hall, looking up at the sun above your head.

"Huh?" At that moment, you couldn’t help but ask Wu Qiyi beside you, "Little Yun, has the position of the sun in the sky changed at all?"

Looking up at the non-blinding sun above, Wu Qiyi compared with her slender jade finger and murmured, "The altitude angle of the sun hasn’t changed at all,"

"It hasn’t changed?"

At this, you hurriedly took out a scroll you had received from the old lady of the Cen family.

When the scroll was unfolded, it revealed a landscape painting, yet it seemed completely unrelated to the Xianyang City where you were.

Then, you closed your eyes.

Your vision once again detached from your eyes and continued to ascend.

At that time, the whole outline of the Palace City was beneath your eyelids, but your gaze kept soaring higher.

When your vision rose to a certain height, you were stunned to discover that the so-called sun was actually a Golden Core!

A golden egg, smaller than the size of a chicken egg, was radiating light akin to that of the sun!

Jiu Xianmin!

The three characters naturally surfaced in your mind, and you knew, only these characters were fitting for it!

Your gaze instantly moved inside your body, and you abruptly opened your eyes wide, laughing as you said, "Found it!"

Looking around from your current position, you would discover that the design of this imperial tomb is very peculiar; it is actually an immense Array from beginning to end, and that Jiu Xianmin in the sky, shining with golden light, is the Array’s core. In other words, everything here operates on the Jiu Xianmin!

"Is that sun in the sky the Jiu Xianmin?" Xi Yu was also slightly surprised, but she quickly regained her composure and asked, "But considering the altitude, that thing is quite far from our position now, how are we supposed to climb up and retrieve it, and furthermore, does it possess the searing high temperatures of the sun, or perhaps, is there a powerful Array above it?"

You, having already made up your mind, didn’t care about these concerns and immediately bellowed, "It doesn’t matter, we must get it at all costs!"

Taking out a small porcelain bottle from within your robes, you downed all five Return Soul Pills inside, and then shouted:

"Scenic Sect, open!"

With your shout, an immense Qi Force surged outward, causing the people nearby, like Sun Lin and others, to stagger and fall, while Zhang Dadong tumbled several times on the steps, only being steadied by Zi Qian and Wang Chongyang and preventing him from falling down the hundred-step high platform.

At this moment, two red talismans flew out of your pocket and stuck themselves on your calves.

Then, hundreds of Yellow Vermilion Charms, like a school of fish, streamed out and covered the sky towards the Jiu Xianmin!

Your eyes were fixed, within them the Sen Luo Curse Mark began to rapidly spin. Just when you were about to form handprints, a deep, resonant male voice suddenly echoed in your mind, "Young friend, wait a moment, I have a favor to request."

Your entire body stiffened, and you involuntarily glanced around before turning to look at the armored corpse behind you, whose head had been bowed, as if it had not moved in the slightest.

Wu Qiyi and Zhao’er also seemed to sense something and turned to look towards the interior of the great hall.

"Is the young friend a successor of the Celestial Machine Path?"

"I am not," you replied with a slight shake of your head, suppressing the turmoil in your heart, and asked in a deep voice, "Might I inquire if you are Lord Wu’An, General Li?"

"Ha... It’s nothing more than a millennium-old corpse that hasn’t moved." Li Mu chuckled self-mockingly, "Young friend, although you are not a successor of the Celestial Machine Path, your aura is full of righteousness; you must be a descendant of the Taoist School."

"Indeed, there is some connection."

"I have an embarrassing request to make, hoping that, as a fellow disciple of the Taoist School, you might lend me your assistance," he said.

Having never imagined that your idol, Li Mu, would make a request of you, you hastily agreed: "Please speak, General Li, I will do my utmost!"

"I was once harmed by traitors and, as a prisoner, was sent to Xianyang. In the end, King Qin used secret techniques to turn me into this laughable state."

The listeners were deeply horrified upon hearing this; none of them had imagined that Li Mu was still alive!

"I was once an old acquaintance of King Qin. After bidding farewell in Handan, I never imagined that our next meeting would unfold as it did." Li Mu let out a long, regretful sigh, "I failed King Qin back then, and my current plight is no one’s fault but my own. Now, seeing that everyone here is dressed quite differently from my time, I have not asked, but which dynasty is it now on the outside world? Is the current sovereign still from the Qin People?"

Scratching your head, you tried to keep your voice from sounding too abrupt, "General Li, the era I live in is more than two thousand two hundred years after your time."

In that moment, the armored corpse abruptly lifted its head!

"Boom!"

All present felt their minds go blank, and Zhang Dadong’s eyes rolled back as he fainted on the spot.
