Chapter 667 Legend of the Dark Sect

“This is the challenge letter written by my young master. Your ranking shouldn’t be higher than my young master’s. Tomorrow morning, on the Immortal-slaying Platform, my master wants to fight you. If you don’t come, people will take it as you surrender. And your ranking will fall by one level.”

Early in the morning, a guard who looked like an attendant came to Li Mu’s courtyard. He knocked on the door and sent in a gilded challenge letter.

Li Mu was puzzled.

“What’s going on?

“Rank, Immortal-slaying Platform, what the hell are these?”

The guard threw the challenge letter to Li Mu’s feet and snorted arrogantly. Without waiting for Li Mu’s response, he turned around and left.

Bi Yan walked out with her eyes swollen from crying all night. She picked up the challenge letter and flipped it open. The main content of it was that Reihom, from the Storm Star Region, who was ranked 988th on the List of Heavenly Legends of the Star Regions, was challenging Li Yidao from the Brilliance Immortal Star Region, who was ranked 964th.

“Young Master, look.”

Bi Yan handed the letter to Li Mu.

“List of Heavenly Legends of the Star Regions? What the hell is this?”

After reading it, Li Mu was very surprised.

When he was in the Heavenly Fox Clan’s jurisdiction, there were lists of the top 60 Heavenly Legends and top 10 Heavenly Legends in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region. At this time, there was actually the List of Heavenly Legends of the Star Regions, in which he was ranked 964th.

Who made this?

While Li Mu was pondering over the challenge letter, the chubby Dongfang Piaoliang came to his yard smiling.

Dongfang Piaoliang was also holding a booklet in his hand, looking like a spoiled fatty. He looked up at the challenge letter in Li Mu’s hand and said with a big smile, “Oh, it seems that you have received a challenge letter, Mr. Li?”

As he spoke, he handed the booklet in his hand to Li Mu.

Li Mu took it and found that it was the List of Heavenly Legends of the Star Regions.

“Why did you give me this?” Li Mu asked in confusion.

Dongfang Piaoliang smiled and said, “This time, the youngest princess of our Heavenly Fox Clan is holding a contest to look for a husband, and this is a great event in the Ziwei Star Zone. Heavenly Legends from all the Star Regions are coming here, and there is a total of 1,100 Heavenly Legends gathered on our star. This is an official ranking of those Heavenly Legends, and it was just announced yesterday afternoon.”

After hearing that, Li Mu immediately understood.

From each of the 110 Star Regions, ten Heavenly Legends were selected and were coming here. In total, there were 1,100 people of them, and their strength varied.

The government of the Heavenly Fox Clan ranked those Heavenly Legends according to their performance in the selective trials.

Dongfang Piaoliang added, “My clan’s divine temple has issued an announcement that the Heavenly Legends on the list can challenge each other to improve their own fame and ranking. The higher one’s ranking is, the more advantageous his situation would be in the final contest.”

Li Mu frowned.

“It’s this trick again.”

“Once the challenge started, there would be bloody battles.”

“How many people among those 1,100 Heavenly Legends would survive after the challenges?”

“Besides, the rule is encouraging the Heavenly Legends to challenge and kill each other.”

“What is the Heavenly Fox Clan up to?”

As if he could read Li Mu’s mind, Dongfang Piaoliang added with a smile, “The announcement also sets out that challenges must be done on the Immortal-slaying Platform. Moreover, it is only a matter of competition. If one kills his opponent, he will be considered disqualified for the final contest. Therefore, this is only a battle of ranking, not a life-and-death duel.”

Hearing that, Li Mu found it reasonable.

It seemed that he had misunderstood the Heavenly Fox Clan.

“You said that the higher one’s ranking was, the more advantageous his situation would be in the final contest, right?” Li Mu asked, “What does the ‘advantageous situation’ refer to?”

Dongfang Piaoliang shook his head and said, “I don’t know. The specific rules of the contest haven’t come out yet. But since it was announced that way, the one with the highest ranking would have an advantage, and it’s possible for him to meet the little princess Daji in advance.”

Li Mu nodded thoughtfully.

He looked at the challenge letter in his hand.

Originally, he was not interested in the challenge of Reihom at all, but now… he might as well go and meet him. Not only did he have to accept the challenge, but he also had to strive for a higher ranking by challenging other Heavenly Legends. In that way, he could meet Daji in advance and ask something.

In fact, when Li Mu first came to the White Earth, he had thought about seeing Daji first, but the place was heavily guarded by the Heavenly Fox Clan. It was really difficult for him to meet the seniors of the clan who all lived in the divine palace.

Li Mu had failed to find a solution before.

But now, another path had appeared in front of him.

Participating in the challenge contest suddenly became very necessary for Li Mu.

“By the way, your honor, I have asked you to inquire the news of the Lady of the Clouds for me. I don’t know if you…” Li Mu asked again.

Dongfang Piaoliang said with a smile, “The Lady of the Clouds and the Young Master of the Heavenly Deity Clan came to our planet yesterday and are now going sightseeing. As for their specific whereabouts, I can’t find out clearly for the time being. You can check it on the Immortal Net. Maybe there are some clues.”

Li Mu nodded.

Dongfang Piaoliang continued, “Recently, all that has happened in the Ziwei Star Zone will be reported in the official newspaper of our clan. If you are interested, I will ask someone to send them to your place every day.”

Hearing that, Li Mu was overjoyed and said, “Thank you so much.”

After coming to the White Earth, Li Mu had been trying to contact the intelligence agency of the Dark Yellow Army, but there had been no response from the Soldier Commander, which made Li Mu feel helpless. If he could see the official report of the Heavenly Fox Clan, he could at least get a big picture of the situation.

“By the way, is there any follow-up investigation about the attack of the Star Posthouses?” Li Mu recalled another thing, and he was a little worried.

Dongfang Piaoliang said, “We got some clues. The biggest suspect, the Divine Nest, turned out to be innocent. Some clues showed that the Dark Sect, which has not appeared in the Ziwei Star Zone for a long time, might be the one behind it.”

“Dark Sect?” Li Mu had never heard of this name.

Dongfang Piaoliang said, “You should have heard of the Dark Yellow Army, right?”

Li Mu was surprised while he said, “Yes.”

He wore a faceless mask, so others couldn’t see his expression.

Dongfang Piaoliang did not think much of it and said, “The Dark Yellow Army is made up of the descendants of the sinners. It’s hated by all the forces in the Ziwei Star Zone. For tens of thousands of years, there were constant wars and mutual losses. The situation of the Dark Yellow Army is getting worse and worse. But even if we are enemies, I have to admit that the Dark Yellow Army has always been clear about grievances and grudges, and their actions are upright. Later, for some unknown reason, they split because of disputes, and the Dark Sect was split from them. They were aggressive, ruthless, and slaughtered all parties. They took bloody revenge. The major sects, races, and families that they once fought with are very scared of them. They are the top terrifying forces on this planet.”

When Li Mu heard that, he was very surprised.

“The Dark Yellow Army has such a history?”

“How come I had never heard of it before?”

Dongfang Piaoliang continued, “Later, because of the disputes, the Dark Sect and Dark Yellow Army completely fell out. It was said that there were several internal wars among them. The Dark Sect was hated by the forces on the planet and the Dark Yellow Army. They suffered heavy losses and gradually went down. At that time, when the Dark Sect leader was covering his subordinates to flee, he was exhausted and died. He once made an oath that one day, the Dark Sect would come back again and would kill their enemies and avenge the tribes who died in battle.”

When Li Mu heard this, he had mixed feelings.

“After so many years, has the Dark Sect taken any action?” he asked.

Dongfang Piaoliang said with great concern, “All the superpowers thought that the Dark Sect had been wiped out, and there had been no movement from them over the years. They didn’t expect that the sect would come back and destroy so many Star Posthouses at once. These Star Posthouses belong to the six top clans and are extremely rich. They are looted by the Dark Sect now. Therefore, the Dark Sect has obtained a lot of supplies. They will definitely revive. They have been preparing for many years. I’m afraid that we will be in big trouble soon.”

After listening to him, Li Mu was clear about the details of the matter.

He realized that the matter was caused by a grudge of the past.

“The Dark Yellow Army actually has such a history.”

Then, he thought of those strange dead bodies he saw in the Star Posthouse that day. “They were obviously killed by that Cultivation Method. When did she have something to do with the Dark Sect?”

“Or could it be that the news the Heavenly Fox Clan and other major forces had received was actually wrong? Were the Star Posthouses not destructed by the Dark Sect, but by her? And she made it look like it was done by the Dark Sect?”

After talking for a while, Dongfang Piaoliang turned around and left. Before leaving, he said, “You can come to me for any help at any time. If you accept the challenge tomorrow, I will take you to the Immortal-slaying Platform in person.”

Li Mu nodded and said, “Thank you very much.”

When Dongfang Piaoliang left, Li Mu felt something was wrong.

After thinking for a long time, he realized that Dongfang Piaoliang was too enthusiastic to help him. He had prepared everything for him and helped him a lot as if the former were the latter’s subordinate.

“Why was that so?”

“What’s her purpose?”

Li Mu shook his head.

He then looked at Bi Yan beside him and wondered if he should tell her what had happened last night.

Although Divine-winged Fox did not wish to reunite with her in order to protect her, Bi Yan did not know that. No matter how dangerous it would be, nothing would make her happier than reuniting with her family.

It could be seen that Divine-winged Fox was somewhat in a dangerous situation.

If one day, Divine-winged Fox died and Bi Yan was unable to see him and reconcile with him, it would be the biggest regret in her life, wouldn’t it?

“Should I tell her now and let her make her own choice?” Li Mu wondered.
