418: The shackles were completely removed

At this moment, Lu Feng's body floated in mid-air, enveloped by the Imperial Dao Dragon Qi and Starry Sky Power released by Li Mu; his entire being seemed to have directly de-aged by twenty years.

His previously somewhat aged face now regained some luster, the wrinkles on his face smoothed out, and even his complexion became a few shades ruddier.

Li Mu also watched Lu Feng excitedly. As the System's notification sound had already appeared, Li Mu directly stopped the release of energy. After a long period of continuous energy output, Li Mu was also somewhat exhausted, but fortunately, the result was good.

Lu Feng's transformation was still continuing. Having endured the pain of Bloodline cleansing for a long time, the sudden end made Lu Feng feel as if all the pores on his body had opened comfortably. His body instinctively trembled slightly, and although he tried his best to stretch his body, his pores were still not satisfied.

Lu Feng's body seemed to act uncontrollably, greedily sucking the energy that Li Mu had released and not yet retracted into his own body.

"Old Lu? You can absorb this?"

Li Mu was instantly dumbfounded. The level of energy he currently mastered was higher than Spiritual Qi, and Lu Feng was still a long way from the Mahayana Stage. Li Mu was worried that Lu Feng wouldn't be able to withstand his energy; if his Physical Body were to explode, the loss would outweigh the gain.

Seeing this, Li Mu prepared to forcibly retract his Starry Sky Power and Imperial Dao Dragon Qi, but before he could act, the Imperial Dao Dragon Qi and Starry Sky Power surrounding Lu Feng vanished instantly, having been absorbed into his body through his pores.

Lu Feng seemed to lose the support of the energy as his body slowly landed on the ground. He sat cross-legged with his eyes tightly closed, and his previously trembling body returned to calm.

"Old Lu? Say something?"

Li Mu hurried forward, releasing his Spiritual Sense to scan Lu Feng, finally finding his mass of energy within Lu Feng's Dantian.

That mass of energy sat quietly deep within Lu Feng's Dantian, continuously transforming into pure Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to replenish it.

Lu Feng's Aura was also gradually climbing. Seeing this scene, Li Mu finally felt relieved; as long as the Physical Body didn't explode, it was fine. As for how far this energy could help Lu Feng go, Li Mu didn't care. After all, from now on, the Lu Family no longer had any restrictions. Even if the Hong Clan officially invaded and the Hong Clan's commander personally arrived, they could not affect the Lu Family's loyalty.

Just after Li Mu's System notification faded, at the Lu Residence not far from the Li Residence—since the Lu Family had agreed to become a subordinate family of the Li Family, they had moved into Jade Emperor City. Because they had joined relatively early, the Lu Family's residence was located in a fairly central part of Jade Emperor City.

At this moment, the members of the Lu Family felt something almost simultaneously. Their bodies uncontrollably sat down cross-legged, greedily inhaling the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within this world.

The Lu Family's Grand Elder was currently covered in flickering lightning, with veins bulging on his forehead. At this critical moment, he suddenly felt as if something in his heart had vanished. Immediately after, he felt a sudden lightness within his body. With a muffled "thud" from inside the Grand Elder, the Bottleneck that had been troubling him was overcome as if it were only natural.

"Hahahahahaha!"

"Heaven blesses my Lu Family!"

The Grand Elder shouted happily, but then his Spiritual Sense swept over the entire Lu Family, instantly discovering the current situation of the family. His brain worked rapidly, and combined with his own situation just now, the Lu Family's Grand Elder reacted instantly.

He turned on the spot and began to kowtow toward the direction of the Li Residence.

"The Lu Family is willing to go through fire and water for the Li Family for generations!!"

Without time to say more, the Lu Family's Grand Elder also felt the thirst coming from his pores. He immediately sat cross-legged and began to absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi. Although the Lu Family's Grand Elder had just successfully made a Breakthrough, it didn't hinder the sense of thirst coming from a body that had just undergone Bloodline cleansing.

For a time, the entire Lu Family was silent, with only various muffled sounds echoing out—those were the fluctuations from Cultivation Base Breakthroughs.

Lu Feng's Aura was still slowly climbing. The mass of Li Mu's energy in his Dantian was still releasing pure Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, and Lu Feng's pores were uncontrollably absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi from the outside world.

Seeing that Lu Feng's current state was no longer a major concern, Li Mu stopped guarding him. He arranged for a member of the Li Family to watch over him and then returned to the Cultivation Divine Pagoda to begin recovering the depleted energy in his body.

Not having entered the Cultivation Divine Pagoda for a long time, the enlightenment tea tree had fully matured once again. The golden enlightenment fruits were being eaten as snacks by Sikong and Nanmen. At this time, the soul bodies of Sikong and Nanmen had basically solidified; as long as there were suitable Materials, they could directly reconstruct their Physical Bodies.

Seeing Li Mu enter wearing the holy lord set, Sikong and Nanmen appeared instantly.

"Greetings, Holy Lord!"

"Greetings, Holy Lord!"

The two said in unison and knelt on one knee before Li Mu. When Li Mu was still a Saint, he had never enjoyed such treatment.

Li Mu didn't pay it any mind. After telling the two to continue seizing the time to strengthen their soul bodies, he returned to his own cultivation place.

"Let me see what exactly is recorded in this Jade Slip."

Taking out the Jade Slip given to him by Chen Xuanji, this was currently the fastest way Li Mu could think of to improve his strength.

Sinking his consciousness into it, Li Mu began to read carefully.

Inside Jade Emperor City.

At this time, Ji Beichen was walking swaggeringly on the street. Regarding his identity, Ji Beichen was not afraid of being checked. Long before coming, Ji Beichen had investigated clearly; Sunset Village already had a Qi Refining Stage old man.

The people from the Law Enforcement Hall also acted quickly. Without spending much time, they had already found surviving villagers from Sunset Village to understand the situation, learning that there was no problem with the identity Ji Beichen had reported.

As Ji Beichen walked, he spotted two people from the Law Enforcement Hall walking toward him on the street and immediately stopped.

"Two lords? Do you have any instructions?"

Ji Beichen said with a smile, but in his heart, he thought that when the Hong Clan broke through Jade Emperor City, none of these people would be left alive; they would all become his nourishment.

"Old gentleman, since this is your first time in Jade Emperor City, our captain was worried you wouldn't be able to find your old acquaintances, so he arranged for the two of us to lead you to the area where the people of Sunset Village live!"

Hearing this, Ji Beichen's eyes brightened instantly. He hadn't known where to start before, and this was truly like a pillow being offered when one is drowsy. With these two leading the way, he wouldn't have to search aimlessly like a headless fly.

He immediately thanked the two Law Enforcement Hall members. "Thank you, lords. It's just that this old man has nothing to thank you with. If you don't mind, please take this!"
