Chapter 12 Li Mu was Mad

They were sweating all over and realized that their own arrogant behavior to the young county magistrate was almost killing them, and they were about to be scared to death. Li Mu was not the weak man that could be bullied by everyone, and he played the role as a pig that could eat a tiger.

Shennong Faction was heading for their doom this time.

Just look at how Sikong Jing would handle this matter.

Boom!

Li Mu kicked another stone pillar with his feet.

The thick stone pillar that would be hugged by two adult men collapsed as if it was made of flour.

The rubble flew like rain, smashing all the poisonous insects that crawled over the ground into colorful mud. Some disciples of Shennong Faction who drove out the poisonous insects were also screamed back by the smash.

Li Mu once again jumped up like a human-like tyrannosaurus and rushed into the deep stone forest.

Save people first.

He was looking for the plaintiffs Zhang Li and her daughter Qiner.

Boom!

There was a thunder coming from the stone forest. One stone pillar collapsed after another, leaving the smoke all over the sky. Here came the nonstop screaming, shouting and exclaiming.

As if a tiger broke into a chicken cage.

Soon after

You You did this kind of unreasonable thing damn, you all should die!

Li Mu was so angry that he roared like an explosion or thunder, and those sound came from the deep stone forest.

Then there came the sounds of mourning and begging for help from those disciples of Shennong Faction.

Soon there was a pungent bloody smell that came out of the deep stone forest.

Not a few people were killed.

Li Mu began to slaughter.

Ma Junwu stood outside and looked at the scene far away. He could guess what had happened.

At the early development stage of Shennong Faction, it was just a combination of medicine farmers and herbalists who wanted to earn a living, so it was quite normal. However, with its further development, many outlaws joined it, and it began to change. After Sikong Jing became its Grand Master, it had changed completely into a group of gangsters.

These years, Shennong Faction seemed to be a poisonous tumour in Taibai County Town because of their evil behaviours. Some young women disappeared for no resaon, and all clues showed it was people Shennong Faction who did that. The rumours said that disciples would torture and humiliate those young women. Something worse could happen. For example, to help Sikong Jing practice his poisonous martial arts, people from Shennong Faction would use living human as medicine, and they would let those victims try poisonous medicine and use their hearts and livers to feed poisonous worms, which was really cruel.

Except for the disciples and guests of Shennong Faction, other ordinary people would be tortured to death as long as they were caught.

This time, Zhang Li and her daughter were taken into the headquarter of Shennong Faction, which left them no choice but death.

Ma Junwu could tell this county magistrate was not crazy about killing people, and he wanted to save people so he rushed into Shennong Faction and killed those four king kongs who killed the guard, Zhang Ru. Li Mu did not kill any ordinary disciples of Shennong Faction. But after he saw the tortured bodies of the plaintiffs and other people in the deep of the hell-like stone forest, he became so furious that he began to kill people.

Scary screams came from the deep stone forest of Shennong Faction.

Many people who watched outside were in a state of horror.

The young county magistrate was really angry.

What?

Deputy county magistrate Zhou Wu was too surprised to stand up, and the red porcelain teacup in his hand fell to the ground with a sound of snap and smashed.

Master. Li Mu is a great master of martial art, a very scary master. He is going to eradicate Shennong Faction by an ordinary knife. Even the four king kongs together could not fight with him in less than four moves. And they each were all slaughtered by Li Mu in just one cut One of the family slaves of Zhou Wu ran back and reported to him breathlessly. And his face was still pale because of fear and he still felt like trembling while he was talking.

How could it be possible? You Are you wrong? Zhou Wus voice suddenly cracked, and he began to feel bad.

Absolutely right. The slave gasped as if he had not yet recovered from the shock and fear.

Zhou Wu fell into his chair and looked embarrassed. He got the look as if he had eaten a dead mouse, and he couldnt speak for a while.

Feng Yuanxing, the secretary, waved his hand to the family slave and gave him a gesture of continuing to observe Li Mu.

When the family slaves went out, Feng Yuanxing got up, made obeisance and said, Master. Our judgement was wrong. Li Mu is not easy to handle. He played the role of a pig to eat a tiger. We were deceived by him before, we must weigh carefully what we should do next. I believe the news will spread to the whole county and every clan will adjust their attitude towards Li Mu.

Zhou Wu nodded, but he still couldnt speak.

There was no need to worry if Li Mu was only a scholar. Or, it was not very fatal if Li Mu was only a great master of martial arts, but the problem now was that Li Mu was not only a great master but also had the status of a county magistrate. The combination of those two identities became very tricky.

In the Empire of the Great Qin Dynasty, although the county magistrate was only the lowest independent administrative official who governed not a few people, it had absolute authority and power. The military and political power were under the control of the county magistrate. Although Zhou Wu was like a leading snake in Taibai County, he had no chance to definitely win if he
