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

The next morning.

Li Mu arrived at the main hall of the palace early.

Looking at the maids and servants coming and going, they should be making final preparations for his return journey.

The night before, Li Mu went to Zhao Chuyi's bedroom, and just when the two of them were being affectionate with each other, the car speed had reached 200 miles per hour.

Only then did I realize that the driveway was undergoing routine monthly maintenance.

Seeing this, Li Mu's engine immediately stalled. Even though Zhao Chuyi repeatedly claimed that it didn't matter, Li Mu would definitely not do that.

For this purpose, Zhao Chuyi was given a good lesson on traffic safety and civilized driving.

Perhaps because she had learned new knowledge, Zhao Chuyi was deeply moved and felt Li Mu's love for her personally.

Afterwards, Zhao Chuyi saw that Li Mu was feeling very uncomfortable and strongly asked him to take another lane.

Although Li Mu and Zhang Hanrui had unlocked countless knowledge, this was his first time with Zhao Chuyi, and Li Mu originally disagreed.

But Zhao Chuyi kept chattering in Li Mu's ear, and finally Li Mu had to interrupt her and teach this ignorant little girl a lesson.

"Mu'er!"

At this time, Prince Yan strode in from outside the hall.

He handed two bamboo slips to Li Mu and whispered,

"I have found everything you want."

Li Mu's eyes lit up and he quickly opened the bamboo slips.

One copy was sent by Zou Pu. Lin Fuhai's confession was basically the same as the information Li Mu received that day, except for some more details.

Li Mu just took a quick look at it and put it away.

Then he looked at another one. The bamboo slips were of simple style, and the surface was covered with traces of time.

Li Mu looked at King Yan in surprise, without waiting for him to speak.

King Yan nodded proudly and said seriously,

"Yes, this is the original. This kind of secret technique may have some special features, so the original is safer."

After listening to what King Yan said, Li Mu felt that it made sense, but he did not expect King Yan to be so magnanimous.

When Li Mu saw the contents of the bamboo slips, he couldn't help but frown and muttered,

"Did you find the wrong one?"

There were only four big characters written on the bamboo slips: "Nine Turns of Hunyuan".

Li Mu still remembered that Lin Fuhai said that the old woman had put something called a blood seal or something in the Lin family's ancient books.

Upon hearing this, the King of Yan snatched the bamboo slips, feeling embarrassed, and said,

"Impossible, how could I have found the wrong one?"

However, he only glanced at it twice, handed the bamboo slip back, and tried to hide the embarrassment on his face, and said with a smile,

"Take another look. Logically, there should be nothing wrong. All the people in the Lin family, including the financial staff, have been found. If it doesn't work, you can't leave today. Your father will take you to the warehouse so you can take a look for yourself."

He slapped his thigh and continued,

"Yes, Zoupu, isn't Lin Fuhai in Zoupu? Why don't you just go and ask him directly?"

Li Mu nodded and picked up the bamboo slips to read.

What is recorded on the bamboo slips is a kind of internal strength method. In Li Mu's understanding, it has a bit of the meaning of breaking down and then building up.

The Nine Turns of Hun Yuan is to condense the true Qi into a pill, then break the pill into pieces, repeating this nine times in order to strengthen the Qi sea.

Although Li Mu learned martial arts very quickly, he was actually quite lacking in theoretical knowledge.

Thinking of this, Li Mu handed the bamboo slips to King Yan, and began to close his eyes and concentrate his energy. He tried to practice "Nine Turns of Hun Yuan" according to the method of exercise recorded on the bamboo slips.

At first, the true Qi was only taken from Li Mu himself, and Li Mu did not find anything unusual. However, when the true Qi began to be drawn from the outside world, Li Mu suddenly found something wrong.

He opened his eyes suddenly and saw blood oozing out of the surface of his body from time to time and gathering towards his dantian.

Not only that, even the maids and servants in the distance, including the King of Yan beside him, had blood beads constantly oozing out of their bodies to nourish Li Mu.

Countless "Oh my God" flashed through Li Mu's mind.

He quickly stopped practicing his energy, and then tried to transfer the blood pill that had just condensed in his body out of his body, wanting to explode like the ancestor of the Lin family.

However, after trying several times, the blood pill remained motionless.

Li Mu couldn't help but think,

"Could it be because that damn old woman condensed the elixir directly outside her body?"

Thinking of this, Li Mu had an idea. He did not wait until the elixir was completed before breaking it as described on the bamboo slips.

Instead, it breaks directly.

The broken blood pill instantly turned into nutrients and began to nourish Li Mu's body and bones.

In just a moment, Li Mu felt the changes in his body. Although they were slight, Li Mu could definitely feel the strengthening of his body.

Li Mu frowned slightly and thought to himself,

"This is different from what is written on the bamboo slips."

Although the "Nine Turns of Hun Yuan" did strengthen Li Mu's physique, the bamboo slips clearly said that it expanded the qi sea. Isn't this just selling dog meat under the guise of selling mutton?

At this time, the doctor in the palace had already examined the maids and servants who had been affected by Li Mu's practice.

"It's just a little blood loss, it's not a big deal, you can recover after a few days of rest. As for the prince, he has sufficient blood and qi, so this loss is a good thing."

Li Mu looked at the old man who was speaking with some surprise, not understanding why loss of Qi and blood was a good thing.

The old man examined himself for a moment, his eyes slightly shining.

"Your Highness, your blood is full and your body is strong. You don't have any hidden injuries."

After saying this, the old man seemed to realize that there was something wrong with his previous words. Without waiting for Li Mu to ask any questions, he clasped his fists and left.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

Li Mu turned his gaze towards King Yan and spoke tentatively.

The King of Yan seemed not to have heard Li Mu's words. He directly pinched Li Mu's shoulders and arms, and said in surprise,

"It only took a short moment to produce such an effect. Hahahaha. All right, let's go. Mu'er, come with your father."

Li Mu was confused by what the King of Yan said and asked hurriedly,

"What do you mean, where are we going? I'm about to leave."

King Yan's eyes were filled with passion, and he said excitedly,

“I didn’t expect that the Lin family actually had such a powerful body refining secret technique.”

As he spoke, he seemed to realize something and quickly patted Li Mu on the shoulder and said,

"Don't worry, Mu'er. Your father has just checked you and there are no side effects. Your father is absolutely professional when it comes to physical training."

Li Mu probably understood what King Yan meant.

I didn't expect that this "Nine Turns of Hun Yuan" is actually a method of physical training. It is indeed unheard of.

Seeing King Yan pulling him out of the palace, Li Mu didn't bother to think about why the actual effect of this technique was so different from the description.

He asked hurriedly,

"Where are we going?"

Seeing that Li Mu had to ask clearly before he was willing to go with him, the King of Yan showed a strange smile on his face, moved closer to Li Mu, and whispered,

"There are 3,000 Rannu captives outside the city. The Rannu people are naturally full of energy and have strong bodies. Perhaps they can help my son make further progress."

Hearing this, Li Mu felt a chill down his spine. Only then did he realize that this middle-aged man who loved to play pranks was actually a killer commander who had killed countless enemies on the battlefield.

Li Mu used all his persuasion, saying that he had not yet fully mastered this technique, to dissuade the King of Yan from the idea of ​​"sacrificing a thousand people".

This was also the first time that King Yan showed some dissatisfaction with Li Mu.

This is too soft-hearted and not a good thing.

Soon, the King of Yan stopped persuading Li Mu, saying that he could slowly teach him about such things later.

After thinking for a moment, he suddenly remembered that there was something else he wanted to say to Li Mu, so he pulled Li Mu up and hurried back to the main hall of the palace.

Li Mu could feel that the King of Yan valued him. Although there was an exchange of interests involved, for Li Mu, this feeling was enough.

At this time, the corner of King Yan's mouth suddenly curled up into a smile, and said in an ambiguous tone,

"Mu'er, your father has prepared a gift for you."

As he said this he clapped his hands twice.

A plump woman in dark purple clothes slowly walked out from behind the screen.

However, when he saw the woman's face clearly, Li Mu suddenly turned his head to look at the King of Yan, and countless horses ran through his heart.

"What do you mean? Princess Yan? A gift? Oh my god, so you are this kind of King Yan."
