I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Chapter 523: Fasting and Forgetting.

After hearing Jun Jiuling's words, Li Mu gradually calmed down.

He was a little angry, or rather, any normal person would get a little angry when hearing about this kind of thing.

But it shouldn't be so serious, and it shouldn't be all over the face.

Obviously, this was affected by the side effects of the Qinglian Huasheng Jue.

Li Mu still had a gloomy face and waved his hand, "Go to the pavilion over there and talk to me."

Although I know what happened, it is not easy to calm down the anger.

Otherwise, this side effect wouldn't be that scary.

Diemeng nodded softly, not daring to say no.

The dignified leader of the Tianzong sect, now acts like a young wife who has done something wrong.

At first glance, Li Mu's previous words sounded like an everyday joke.

But Diemeng actually felt the murderous aura as if it were real.

In the distance, Yuwei Pavilion.

Madam Lu was about to stand up when she saw Li Mu and the Taoist leader of Tianzong walking towards her.

But he keenly sensed that the atmosphere was wrong and sat back down.

Sure enough, Li Mu acted as if he didn't see her.

He sat down opposite her. She was about to speak when she heard Li Mu's low voice.

"We'll talk about your business later."

Then, Li Mu said to Xiao Zhao, "Xiao Zhao, come here."

Xiao Zhao was about to pour tea for Li Mu, but when she heard Li Mu's instructions, she quickly put down the teacup in her hand and walked to Li Mu.

Li Mu didn't say much. He put his arms around Xiao Zhao's waist and held her on his lap.

Xiao Zhao did not struggle, but buried her head in Li Mu's shoulder with a red face, without saying a word.

Mrs. Lu on the side twitched her eyebrows. Li Mu really didn't treat her as an outsider.

But when he saw Li Mu's gloomy face, he turned his head away honestly and pretended that he saw nothing.

Li Mu exhaled a breath of foul air and smelled the faint fragrance on Xiao Zhao's body, and his mood became much calmer.

Jun Jiuling felt the change in Li Mu's mood and thought to himself, "As expected."

Back then in the illusion, she noticed that Li Mu treated this little girl named Xiao Zhao very differently.

She could keep everyone else away from Li Mu, but Xiao Zhao was an exception.

Now it seems that there is more to it than that.

This girl can help Li Mu suppress his hostility just by staying by his side, which shows how special she is.

In front of him, Diemeng stood cautiously, with her two fair and soft hands tightly entangled together.

Mrs. Lu saw this scene, hesitated for a moment, stood up and said politely,

"Since the Taoist master and the prince have something to discuss, why don't you sit here and I..."

"No need, just let her stand." Unexpectedly, Li Mu interrupted Mrs. Lu before she finished speaking.

Then he frowned and looked at Diemeng, saying in a light tone,

"You still haven't said it? Are you waiting for me to say it for you?"

Hearing this, Die Meng pursed her lips, pondered for a long time, and then spoke as if she had given up.

"Yes, Shinsai does make us attracted to each other to a certain extent, but, but you are not at a disadvantage, why do you have to do this?"

"You obviously got the benefit, I, I also..."

As Die Meng was talking, she couldn't continue, perhaps because Mrs. Lu was present, or perhaps because she felt aggrieved.

A pair of beautiful eyes stared at Li Mu, with resentment and anger in them.

Li Mu looked at her, grabbed Xiao Zhao's hand and squeezed it, then asked, "What's wrong with me?"

"You..." Diemeng was about to speak, but her voice stopped abruptly.

That’s right, from the beginning, Li Mu’s anger was out of his heartache for her and his indignation at the unfair treatment she had received.

She was originally moved, but on the way to the pavilion, she noticed the change in Li Mu's mood.

Li Mu felt resentment towards her, doubted her, and even had a hint of fear.

"You can use Xinzhai to read my thoughts. Am I right?"

Seeing that Die Meng didn't say anything, Li Mu spoke for her.

Die Meng did not deny it, and gritted her teeth and said, "Is it because of this? Being able to understand my husband's mind can help me serve him better. What's wrong with that?"

Hearing this, Li Mu shook his head slightly, but said something without any reason.

"Xiaodie, you know what? I actually like you very much."

Die Meng was stunned, but without thinking too much, she followed Li Mu's words and said, "I know, I like Li Lang too, so why is Li Lang..."

"Puff-----" Unexpectedly, Mrs. Lu, who was originally confused, spat out the tea in her mouth after hearing this.

Then she quickly covered her lips with her sleeves and said anxiously,

"I'm sorry, I just choked..."

Li Mu ignored Mrs. Lu and looked at Die Meng again.

Seeing this, Die Meng turned her attention back to Li Mu, frowned slightly, and spoke with a somewhat aggrieved tone.

"At first, it was not my original intention, but since it happened, I have thought it through and am willing to serve Li Lang sincerely."

"Besides, although Xinzhai will make you admire me...somewhat, I have given you all my blood and energy. Didn't Li Lang notice that his external martial arts progressed by leaps and bounds?"

Die Meng bit her lower lip tightly with her teeth, and looked at Li Mu with a look of resentment, and said in anger,

"No matter what, it's Li Lang's fault that he took his anger out on me because of this."

After these words were spoken, not only Mrs. Lu, but even Xiao Zhao felt that Li Mu seemed to be taking advantage of the situation.

Putting aside the identity of the leader of the Diemeng Tianzong, how can you, Li Mu, not be satisfied with having such a fairy-like woman throwing herself at you?

This is a complete take, and you don't want to admit it?

So that's why you're taking advantage of this issue?

But even if you want to make a fuss about the topic, find a more reliable reason.

Your unreasonable temper is like that of a scumbag who refuses to admit his mistakes once he has put on his pants.

Immediately, Diemeng no longer concealed anything and told Xinzhai all the characteristics in detail.

Xinzhai, others just think that this is a mysterious method of Tianzong.

Cultivating the mind and transcending the essence can even reshape broken tendons and veins.

But only the ancient leaders of the Tianzong Taoism know it.

The mind is fasting, the heart is like a dead tree, and the body is like an untied boat.

It seems to be a carefree and peaceful path.

In fact, it is a sacrificial method of fasting for one person only.

Tian Zong practices internal martial arts, but Xin Zhai wants to use the pure yin of a woman to cultivate the blood and energy of an external martial artist.

Then through dual cultivation, give back to the man.

To put it simply, it is a furnace.

After listening, Li Mu nodded, his face was not disturbed at all. He only looked down at Xiao Zhao and forced a smile and asked,

"Xiao Zhao also thinks that I am wrong?"

Hearing this, Xiao Zhao did not hesitate and shook his head directly.

"Young Master must have his own reasons. Xiao Zhao only listens to you."

Li Mu smiled, this time from the bottom of his heart, and looked back at Die Meng, saying calmly,

"I'll ask you one last time. Is that all?"

Die Meng looked at Li Mu, her face gradually lost color, her red lips slightly parted, as if she wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a long time, she did not say it.

Seeing this, Li Mu sighed lightly, let Xiao Zhao get off his legs, then slowly stood up, bowed to Die Meng and said,

"Forget it. I want this Xinzhai technique. Please help me, little... Taoist master."

"Li Lang..." Seeing Li Mu suddenly like this, Die Meng's body trembled, looking at Li Mu in disbelief, and asked in a trembling voice,

"Li Lang, are you going to break off all ties with me?"

Li Mu looked at the beautiful face in front of him and said calmly,

"Since it will end sooner or later, it is better to end it sooner rather than later."

Hearing this, Diemeng felt her body go limp and she collapsed to the ground.

"Impossible, you can't possibly know..."

Li Mu subconsciously wanted to step forward to help, but he held back in the end.

Sensing Li Mu's actions, Die Meng raised her head abruptly, tears falling like beads from a broken string, and she said anxiously,

"Li Lang, believe me, I have never thought about practicing meditation... I, I..."
