Chapter 1029 Cuckolded

The destruction of the Ghost Star was just around the corner.

The huge planet was broken, and the heat in its core burst out. The power was too terrible. The colorful energies floated, the broken planet likes continents dispersed, and the gravity of the tide of the whole planet was also broken down.

Such a change in the gravity of the tide led to the collapse of the nebula of the Death Qi around the Ghost Star in an orderly manner. Even the tactical deployment set up by Li Mu with the help of the dense Death Qi began to collapse.

Under the leadership of Caicai, Li Mu and the others were racing against time. They quickly found the ghost practitioners in a panic because of the signs of the collapse of the tactical deployment.

“Young Master, what happened?”

Even Dong Xue, who was usually good at recuperating, was a little flustered at this time. Before Li Mu and the others arrived, she and Ning Jing barely suppressed and comforted millions of ghost practitioners. Just now, the crowd was about to lose control.

Li Mu said, “As you can see, the Ghost Star has been destroyed. You have to find a new place to live.”

Dong Xue and Ning Jing were shocked.

Some of the experts of the ghost practitioners around him were also dumbstruck.

Was the Ghost Star going to be destroyed?

Was their hometown after their death going to disappear as well?

They were fearful. Dong Xue, Ning Jing, and the ghost practitioners all looked at Li Mu.

When they encountered problems that couldn’t be solved, the man could always solve the problems with a smile. They didn’t know when they had gotten used to it.

Countless thoughts flashed through Li Mu’s mind, but Li Mu had no idea how to deal with these ghost practitioners.

It was difficult to find another special star like the Ghost Star in the Ziwei Star Zone.

Without the Ghost Star, their power would eventually dissipate, and they would eventually die unless these ghost practitioners reached the demon realm in cultivation.

“Young Master,” Qing Feng said. “The ghost practitioners can enter the Athanasia Immortal Palace.”

Upon hearing that, Li Mu perked up and asked, “Really?”

Qing Feng said, “The Ghost Star formed because of the Athanasia Immortal Palace. Of course, ghost practitioners can live in the Athanasia Immortal Palace. Actually, there were ghost practitioners serving the Cosmic Emperor Deathless.”

When Li Mu heard that, he suddenly reacted.

He suddenly understood why the Ghost Star formed.

To some extent, the Ghost Star was artificial.

In the past, the Athanasia Immortal Palace floated in the void of the universe like a magnet. It constantly absorbed the dust and nebula in the universe as well as the meteorites in the past. Due to the uniqueness of the Athanasia Immortal Palace, the process of creating the star was fast. A star could even form in tens of thousands of years.

The Athanasia Immortal Palace was the key to the formation of the Ghost Star. In the end, it also became the core of the star. The power it emitted made the star full of Ghost Qi and Death Qi, giving the ghosts the qualifications to start cultivation because their psyches and souls had not dispersed.

The only contradiction was that the Cosmic Emperor Deathless had died in the Battlefield of Chaos for thousands of years. However, tens of thousands of years had passed since the ghost practitioners appeared on the Ghost Star and the sect of the ghost practitioners.

The reasonable explanation should be that when the Cosmic Emperor Deathless exiled the Athanasia Immortal Palace, to avoid being noticed or discovered, he not only broke the boundary in its region but also let its time change.

Was the Cosmic Emperor Deathless able to do this?

Li Mu was more and more curious about the martial art emperor.

With Qing Feng controlling the Athanasia Immortal Palace, millions of ghost practitioners, including Caicai, Dong Xue, Ning Jing, Shan Tian, and others, entered it.

The area of the star was already in a state of chaos. Terrifying energy spilled out and swept across the starry sky. Countless small black holes were being formed. With the broken Ghost Star as the center, the chaotic power of the universal tide was tearing the space madly as if it were a horrible killing formation.

Many experts of the Holy Lands were trapped in it like fish caught in turbulence. They struggled desperately and tried their best to escape.

The battle between the Great Emperor Chaos and the top experts of the Holy Lands stopped.

The Ghost Star was destroyed. The whereabouts of the legacy of the Cosmic Emperor Deathless was unknown, and the Athanasia Immortal Palace disappeared. It meant that someone had obtained the legacy. There was no point in continuing to fight. The most important thing was to find the legacy.

At this time, Li Mu, Qing Feng, and Ming Yue had escaped from this area.

Li Mu quietly returned to Taibai City of the Heavenly Land Planet.

He was thinking about another problem.

If the identity of the other Li Mu was uncertain, was there anything special with the old woman, the mother of his mother in the Knife Hut?

In addition, there was another person, the father of Li Mu in this world, Li Gang, the dead magistrate of the prefecture of Chang’an Mansion. Was there any problem with him?

But if Li Gang had another identity, he should not have died so easily.

Li Mu didn’t have much time to consider it. He decided to have a good talk with Li Mu’s mother.

“Mom.” Li Mu bowed respectfully to Li Mu’s mother in her room.

Li Mu’s mother had just had lunch with Shangguan Wan’er and several other maids. The golden sunlight outside came in through the window and was divided into regular diamond-shaped mottled spots. The whole room was peaceful.

“You finally came back. Have you had lunch?” After years of careful recuperation, Li Mu’s mother regained her former glory. She looked graceful and noble with a smile. Her eyes, which had been blind due to crying, had recovered.

Li Mu glanced at Shangguan Wan’er and the others. Then he replied with a smile, “Yes. Mom, I want to talk to you in private for a while.”

Shangguan Wan’er and the others immediately left.

Li Mu knelt on the ground, respectfully kowtowed, and said, “Mom, I want to know how I came to this world. Am I your biological son?”

It was important to find out the background of Li Mu.

Li Mu’s mother was gently fiddling with a string of beads in her hand. But when she heard Li Mu’s question, her expression suddenly changed. Her hand paused, and she looked at Li Mu in surprise.

Li Mu looked up at her.

Li Mu’s mother gently fiddled with the beads in her hand again and said, “This day finally comes. Child, get up.”

Her way of addressing Li Mu had changed. She no longer called him a son.

Li Mu followed her words and got up.

Li Mu’s mother said, “Actually, from the third day I saw you, I knew you were not my Mu’er. At that time, although I was blind, my heart was not blind. As a mother, I was familiar with my son. I didn’t feel familiar with you.”

Li Mu was slightly shocked. But soon, he realized that it was reasonable.

Most of the time, the bloodline and the family affection could not be explained by martial art cultivation. These things were from the perception of the souls. Li Mu’s mother had already noticed that he was a fake. It was understandable.

Li Mu’s mother continued, “At that time, I was very scared and worried. I thought you had murdered my son and replaced his official position, so I thought of many ways to prevent and deal with you. But later, I gradually found that you should not be that kind of person. You are much better than my Mu’er.”

As Li Mu’s mother spoke, tears streamed down her cheeks.

She had cried a lot and blinded herself with tears in the past. It was the first time she cried since her eyes had regained their sight.

“Child, I wanted to ask you about my son’s whereabouts countless times, but I didn’t dare to. I was not afraid that you knew the truth. I was afraid to know my son’s death from you. Since you’ve mentioned this today, can you tell me what happened to my son? Is he still alive?” Li Mu’s mother stared at Li Mu expectantly and nervously.

She was a pitiful parent.

Now that the other party had made it clear, Li Mu thought about it carefully and told her how he had taken the place of Li Mu in this world by coincidence and the result that he had searched for later. He didn’t hide anything.

In the end, Li Mu said, “I had been searching for him in vain, so I thought he was dead. But recently, I found some clues enough to prove that he is still alive. He must be alive.”

Li Mu’s mother instantly showed a trace of ecstasy on her face.

She had been in contact with Li Mu for so many years. Although they had spent only a little time together, she had heard countless people talk about Li Mu’s deeds. She knew Li Mu, who had taken the place of her son, was not a liar.

“Child, do you have any clues? Where is he now?” Li Mu’s mother asked in a trembling voice.

Li Mu shook his head and said, “I just have a clue. I’m also looking for him.”

Li Mu’s mother said, “Can’t you find him?”

Li Mu’s mother was well aware of how horrible the power of Li Mu was on the Heavenly Land Planet. It was no exaggeration to say that he was now the lord of the world. He could even find a needle, let alone a person.

“If he can’t even find my son, then…” Li Mu’s mother became worried again.

Li Mu said, “So, Mom, I hope you can tell me how Li Mu came to this world and the strange things that happened to him. This may be the key to finding him.”

Li Mu’s mother was lost in thought.

After a long time, she seemed to have woken up from a dream. With a complicated look, she sighed and said, “Well, I thought I would never recall those things in my life.”

Li Mu’s mother recounted in detail how she met Li Gang and how she gave birth to her son.

When Li Mu heard that, he was shocked and asked, “So you mean that you gave birth to Li Mu before you…”

Li Mu was surprised.

In the myths and legends, it was already a miracle that Li Jing’s wife gave birth to Nezha after being pregnant for several years. Unexpectedly, before Li Mu’s mother married Li Gang, she was pregnant just after she had a strange dream.

Li Mu had only heard of this kind of story in the Bible of the earth. Jesus was born by the Virgin Mary.

Li Mu suddenly understood why Li Gang did not care much about his wife he had managed to marry and his son at that time. Li Gang even felt embarrassed and wanted to kill Li Mu several times.

It turned out that the big shot of the Western Qin Empire had suspected that he had been cuckolded.
