122: Heading to Leshan Prefecture

At the moment the dragon's body formed, Li Mu only felt a "boom" in his head, as if something had exploded.

Immediately after, Li Mu's Divine Soul aura climbed rapidly; his Divine Soul power, which hadn't improved for a long time, was now constantly rising.

The ancestral dragon egg within the system space also began to become somewhat uncontrollable. Upon noticing this, Li Mu immediately released it.

As soon as the ancestral dragon egg appeared, the newly condensed dragon body quickly approached it. Li Mu wanted to stop it, but it was already too late; he could only watch helplessly as the dragon body merged into the ancestral dragon egg.

The ancestral dragon egg began to shake. Before long, an illusory dragon shadow emerged on the surface of the ancestral dragon egg, which then returned to its normal state, showing no further movement.

Just as Li Mu wanted to step closer to examine it, the System's voice gave him another jolt.

"Ding... Congratulations to the Host. The Family Luck value has reached 200, activating the Phantom of the Family Luck Divine Beast..."

"Due to locational reasons, the Family Luck Divine Beast has mutated... Please research this on your own, Host..."

Just two brief System prompts left Li Mu shocked and speechless; the phantom that had just condensed was actually the Family Luck Divine Beast!

But why did it take the initiative to merge into the ancestral dragon egg?

Li Mu was baffled. He picked up the ancestral dragon egg and studied it thoroughly, but aside from the dragon shadow on the surface, he couldn't find any other changes.

Li Mu increasingly felt that there must be a great secret within this ancestral dragon egg, though whether it was a blessing or a curse for the Li Family remained unknown.

No longer dwelling on it, Li Mu put the ancestral dragon egg away and prepared for the next step of his plans.

Now that Li Mu had successfully entered the Soul Transformation Stage, it was time to venture out into Leshan Prefecture. Acting on the thought, Li Mu directly summoned the Nascent Souls of the Li Family to accompany him to Leshan Prefecture.

As for Li Renyan, she was temporarily left in the care of Zhao Yaru.

"Wow, Family Head, what is this thing? A boat?"

"Is there actually a waterway to Leshan Prefecture?"

After Li Mu brought out the qingfeng boat, everyone began to express their amazement. Li Chen, in particular, was cautiously touching the hull while constantly asking questions.

"Tsk, you ignorant fellow, this is a Spirit Boat!" An ill-timed voice rang out, causing everyone to glare at the speaker.

The speaker was none other than Ge Feifeng. Li Mu intended to bring him along on this trip to Leshan Prefecture; firstly, he could serve as a guide, and secondly, Li Mu was worried that if they were discovered, he would have no bargaining chips, which made him feel a bit uneasy.

"Did anyone ask you?" Li Chen stared at Ge Feifeng with an unfriendly expression, even waving his fist to intimidate him.

Ge Feifeng immediately didn't dare to speak further. During these past few days with the Li Family, he had basically been served by the Dog-Beating Staff every day. Having finally managed to get away from Li Wen, he didn't want to provoke Li Chen as well.

"Alright, let's set off!" Li Mu played the peacemaker from the side. Li Chen didn't know his own strength; if he accidentally beat Ge Feifeng to death on the boat, Li Mu would find it quite troublesome.

As Li Mu activated the qingfeng boat, its speed quickly picked up. The people on board once again exclaimed in wonder, though this time Ge Feifeng did not speak up to mock them.

The qingfeng boat was extremely fast. Li Mu estimated it was roughly equivalent to a Nascent Soul Peak cultivator traveling at full speed. Moreover, the qingfeng boat didn't need to rest; as long as there were Spirit Stones, it could keep moving forward.

The group soon arrived at Leshan Prefecture. Leshan Prefecture was more than five times larger than Qingyun City and had four city gates. Currently, Li Mu's group stopped at the East Gate of Leshan Prefecture.

Looking at the magnificent city gate before him, which made Qingyun City feel even weaker by comparison, Li Mu murmured to himself, "In the future, there will definitely be a place for my Li Family here!"

"Family Head, don't worry! We definitely will!" Li Ziyun said, giving Li Mu her assurance after overhearing him.

As for those two jokers, Li Han and Li Chen, they were still immersed in shock. Li Mu walked over, gave each of them a slap, and whispered, "Let's go!"

The two quickly followed Li Mu's footsteps and entered the prosperous Leshan Prefecture.

Li Mu's plan this time was to first purchase a house and install the Family Teleportation Array here, so they wouldn't have to waste time traveling back and forth.

He then turned his head and asked the disguised Ge Feifeng behind him, "Where are houses sold? Take us there."

At this moment, Ge Feifeng was dressed up as a little old man. Originally, he had hoped to return to Leshan Prefecture, but after entering, he was afraid of being seen in his pathetic state. Therefore, when Li Mu suggested disguising him, he was very cooperative.

Under Ge Feifeng's guidance, Li Mu's group quickly bought a small residence. Even though it only had five rooms, it cost more than the Li Manor they had built themselves in Qingyun City.

After installing the Family Teleportation Array, Li Mu had Li Ziyun specifically set up a Bewildering Array around it. However, Li Mu did not immediately activate the teleportation array.

Currently, there was no one guarding this place. If someone were to stumble in by mistake, it might cause a stir.

After settling everything, Li Mu led the group to an inn in Leshan Prefecture, wanting to hear if any major events had occurred recently.

Leshan Prefecture had a large population, and large inns could be seen everywhere. They simply found one and walked in.

"Sirs, please come inside!" The waiter greeted them at the door and led Li Mu and the others in.

"Bring out a few of your signature dishes!" Li Han waved his hand grandly and tossed a Storage Pouch onto the table.

Seeing this, the waiter knew these were distinguished guests. He immediately stopped his introductions and said cheerfully, "Sirs, please wait a moment, I'll arrange it right away!" After speaking, he left quickly.

While waiting for the food, Li Mu and the others weren't idle; they each pricked up their ears to listen to the surrounding discussions.

"Sigh, I don't know what's going on, but I feel like the city's security has been a bit strict lately!"

"You can say that again, everyone's on edge!"

"But it's been a long time since I've seen Captain Ge!"

"Better not to see him. Do you think he hasn't tormented you enough?"

"..."

Hearing this, Li Mu and the others shifted their gazes toward the little old man beside them. They saw the little old man keeping his head down, his fists clenched until they were slightly purple.

Seeing this, Li Chen knew that Ge Feifeng's reputation in Leshan Prefecture must be bad. He then looked at Li Mu and said softly, "Family Head, there won't be any problems, will there?"

"It's fine! Hasn't he gone unrecognized so far?" Li Mu chuckled twice, not caring about Ge Feifeng's reputation.

After all, as long as Ge Feifeng didn't run into anyone from the Ge Family, there wouldn't be much of a threat.

By now, several dishes had been served. The group ate while listening, even praising the flavor of the food.

Suddenly, a voice caught Li Ziyun's attention. The speaker was wearing Sect robes, though the group couldn't identify exactly which Sect they belonged to...
