The Counterattack of the Villains

The Supreme Court has collapsed, and the world will annihilate Wushen Jue Palace and kill Jue Wu's son, which can be regarded as avenging the blood of the Supreme.

Even those people in the martial arts world who used to have grudges against the world now have nothing to say.

After all, after they attacked the Tianxiahui branch, later switched sides and killed Gui Chaluo, and were captured by the Tianxiahui, Li Mu magnanimously forgave them and did not hold them responsible for attacking the Tianxiahui branch.

What's more, in today's martial arts world, Li Mu has the highest martial arts and the strongest strength in the world. Besides Li Mu, who else has the qualifications to sit on the supreme position?

Therefore, when Li Mu and his entourage returned to Shuntian Mansion, those martial arts people who had followed the main force of the Tianxiahui to Shuntian Mansion took the initiative to ask Li Mu to succeed him as the supreme leader of the martial arts world.

Li Mu did not engage in any hypocritical tricks of making three invitations, but accepted without hesitation, and promised in public that he would uphold justice for the Chinese martial arts community and govern the world well in the future.

After accepting the worship from representatives of all forces in the martial arts world at the Supreme Palace, Li Mu held a banquet for three days.

After the banquet is over, it is natural for the Shenzhou Wulin to reshuffle the cards and divide the cake.

Li Mu's plan was to completely separate the martial arts world from the folk world, forming two parallel lines that did not intersect.

The martial arts has its rules, and the people have their own laws and regulations. The rules of the martial arts do not apply to the people, and the laws of the people do not apply to the people in the martial arts.

The six gates are fully responsible for the order in the martial arts world, while the order among the people must be re-established so that the king can make laws and decrees and return to this world.

Those in the martial arts community who commit crimes are arrested and dealt with by the Six Gates, while those who commit crimes committed by civilians are arrested and tried by the local government and Dali Temple.

In short, Li Mu, the martial arts supreme, must not only bear the responsibilities that a martial arts supreme should bear, but also do what an emperor should do.

Everyone has no problem with this. Having a law enforcement agency in the martial arts world will be beneficial to reducing unnecessary killings.

Anyway, the Six Doors deal with crimes such as bullying and murder. If someone dies in a fair duel, like a martial arts contest, the Six Doors don't care.

After all, martial arts is different from martial arts. Wherever there are people, there are martial arts. Common people also have their own martial arts.

But martial arts is martial arts, and the theme of martial arts is to compete in martial arts, so killing someone in a fair duel is not a crime. The loser can only blame himself for being inferior to others.

However, if it is a fair duel, there must be witnesses, and no one can report it.

As the saying goes, if the people do not complain, the officials will not be held accountable, but once someone reports the crime, and there are no witnesses during the duel, the nature is different.

Six Doors will intervene in the investigation, and how to deal with it will be determined by the investigation results.

This operation can ensure to the greatest extent that unnecessary killings can be avoided without interfering with the operation of the martial arts or hindering the development of martial arts.

In terms of managing the people, Li Mu decided to open up a new school to recruit scholars, and the Supreme Court established a cabinet leadership team, established three provinces and six ministries, and appointed Zuopushe, the Minister of Provincial Affairs, as the prime minister to take charge of the government affairs of the court.

Local officials were uniformly dispatched by the imperial court, and major martial arts forces were no longer allowed to interfere.

This article will be written into the imperial decree.

In other words, martial arts forces will no longer have the power to govern, enforce the law, and tax.

The previous structure of China was somewhat similar to the feudal system. The major martial arts forces were princes, and in their own three-quarter acres of land, they were equivalent to the local emperors.

When Li Mu did this, he transitioned to a centralized feudal system, and the social system was considered to have progressed.

However, this also touched the biggest cake of the martial arts forces, and the representatives of all the forces present looked a little unhappy.

But Li Mu would not do anything wrong. If the martial arts forces were willing to do business, set up workshops, or even engage in farming, he would also provide certain preferential policies.

If you are not willing, you can also choose to join the Tianxiahui or take the imperial examination to become a member of the court.

As for those who are not willing to do so, there is nothing that can be done about it. Now the world will be powerful, more powerful than all other martial arts forces combined, and disobedience will only lead to death.

Li Mu will organize the members of the Tianxia Hui Gang into armies. Each altar will be equivalent to the local guard post, and the leader of the altar will be equivalent to the commander of the guard.

Tianshuang, Feiyun, Shenfeng, and Jilang are the four main forces guarding the four directions of China respectively, and they are equivalent to the four general armies.

Tianshuangtang is stationed in Furong City, in the west of the main town.

Feiyuntang is stationed in Hangzhou, with its headquarters in Dongfang.

Kamikaze Hall is stationed in Wushuang City, in the north of the main town.

Ji Dew Hall is stationed in Guangzhou, south of the main town.

In short, the people of the world will be the army, the court and the local government will be the government, and the military and government will be separated and will not interfere with each other.

Only when Li Mu or the heads of the four major halls give orders for the sub-tanks to cooperate with the local government offices, can the local government offices mobilize the sub-tanks to help.

If the local government office encounters a difficult problem and cannot handle it, it can seek help from the local Liumen branch.

For matters involving people in the martial arts world, if the six gates can handle it, you can handle it yourself. If you can't handle it, you can also seek cooperation from the local sub-forum.

In short, the local government offices, the six-door branch, and the Tianxiahui branch are not subordinate to each other, but supervise each other, but they can seek cooperation.

Of course, under this kind of political system, it may also happen that the three parties work together to deceive the superiors and conceal the inferiors, causing harm to the local area.

There is no way around this. No system can perfectly solve this problem. After all, people manage people.

The only thing Li Mu can do is to set up an inspection hall similar to Jinyiwei or Dongchang to secretly monitor the world.

For example, secrets are planted in each department, and they usually work like a normal department member, but at the same time they secretly monitor the department leaders.

Once any illegal or disciplinary behavior is discovered, report it immediately to the hall master, who will handle the matter. If the hall master cannot make the decision, he can report it to Li Mu, who will make the decision.

The most suitable candidate for this hall leader is Wu Ming, but Li Mu doesn't know if he can persuade him to do this.

If that doesn't work, the only option is to use Jian Chen as the next best option. I hope he can always keep his original intention and be upright.

If there is really no one available, then Li Mu will hand over the job of the chief catcher of the six gates to others and let Long Teng be the leader of the hall. He is also the second person that Li Mu can completely trust.

To put it bluntly, Long Teng is equivalent to the prince. He will never ruin his family's empire by himself.

After this court meeting, many martial arts forces chose to join the Tianxiahui and became the imperial eagle dogs.

There are also martial arts forces who have inherited poetry and rituals and decided to take the imperial examination and become officials.

In short, those who join directly are included in the military and belong to the Tianxiahui. They only need to practice martial arts well and contribute force, and are not allowed to interfere in politics.

Those who pass the exam are counted as political candidates, belong to the imperial court, and can participate in governing the world, but they are no longer allowed to compete for fame in the martial arts world, let alone privately duel with people in the martial arts world.

Otherwise, even if you win the duel, you will be dismissed from office and will never be hired.

Li Mu is first of all the leader of the Tianxiahui, and secondly the martial arts supreme and emperor.

Political power comes from the barrel of a gun. As long as you firmly hold the military power, no one can shake your position. Therefore, the world will always be the foundation of Li Mu.

The court and the people are the foundation for supporting the Tianxiahui.

Except for those who joined the Tianxiahui and decided to take the imperial examination, there were only a few martial arts forces who had rich families, owned their own industries, and did not rely on taxes to live their lives. They chose to abide by the rules set by Li Mu and return to their respective families.

There are such forces. For example, on Tiexin Island, people forge iron and sell weapons. If you really want to count, they belong to the "working" class among the four peoples. How can they need to occupy land and live by collecting taxes?

Another example is the Longmen Escort Bureau. They are escort agents, their business is all over the world, and they earn a lot of money.

In addition, there are also some martial arts forces who are doing business themselves, and they also look down on the little money they get from taxation.

Of course, there are some forces that do not have their own industries and financial resources, and some do not choose to join the Tianxiahui and become officials.

These forces will be Li Mu's key targets. Once he discovers that they are secretly doing something or planning to do unprofitable business, Li Mu will decisively destroy Ya.

What's more interesting is that Luo Xian also chose to join the Tianxiahui. From then on, the Lord of Luo City became the leader of the Luo City Branch Altar, and his power was severely weakened.

I don’t know what she wants to do. If she wants to be an undercover agent of Tianxiahui, that would be very interesting.

…

Two months later, the Tianxiahui General Altar was completely moved to Shuntian Mansion and settled in the Supreme Palace. The old Tianshan General Altar was taken care of by the Tianyin City Branch Altar under Tianshuangtang.

Just like the Leshan Giant Buddha's Dragon Guard Villa, the commanders lead their headquarters and help the people to guard the place in rotation.

After all, this is the place where the world will start, and it is impossible to abandon it.

Preparations for the first imperial examination of the Supreme Court began in full swing, and all examination questions were set by Li Mu himself.

Since it was the first session, the questions asked by Li Mu were not difficult. Anyone with a little bit of brainpower and some reading would be able to pass the exam.

These questions are meant to screen out those who are just trying to make up the numbers and have no talent at all.

The reference age is also very wide, and anyone over 20 years old or under 60 years old can be used as a reference.

The top priority is to first put up the airs of officialdom, and then slowly increase the difficulty of the test questions, select better talents, and replace those with mediocre talents.

After ten years of this, the level of officials in China will slowly improve.

The first exam took a full half a month to end because there were too many candidates, and it took more than a month to mark the papers.

It took nearly two months from the beginning of the exam to the release of the results, and the first batch of Jinshi was finally released.

The court was organized as quickly as possible, and local officials took office one after another. Li Mu could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

After the imperial examination, it was Duanlang and Youruo, Jianchen and Yu Chuchu's marriage. Li Mu didn't do anything about recruiting a consort, it was just a normal wedding.

After the wedding, Si Datangkou set off to his guarded place, and Youruo naturally followed Duanlang to Guangzhou.

Li Mu personally took care of the Prime Minister for a period of time, and after teaching him some things, he finally became completely free.

Anyway, he adopted a cabinet system. The court was managed by the Prime Minister and officials from the six ministries, and the Jianghu had six gates and four main hall masters.

He, the martial arts supreme, is just a symbol, a spiritual leader, and does not need to do anything specific.

So he secretly went to Muming Town again, this time only taking Jian Chen and Yu Chuchu with him.

In front of Wu Ming and Jian Chen, Li Mu revealed his plan to set up a "Zhengqi Hall", which would be responsible for supervising all officials in the world and the six-door branch, and the world would be divided into forums to ensure the purity of governance.

What surprised Li Mu was that after he and Jian Chen took turns persuading, Wuming finally agreed to the matter.

Now that the unknown hatred has been avenged, the knot in the heart has been resolved, and there is nothing to worry about anymore.

The only thing he can take heart to is the common people in the world.

The existence of Zhengqitang is a very meaningful thing for China.

Instead of living the rest of his life meaninglessly, it would be better to do something for the common people in the world, so he is willing to become the leader of the Zhengqi Hall, and Jian Chen is naturally his deputy.

Just like that, Wuming closed the Zhonghua Pavilion, took the Zhonghua Pavilion gang, and returned to Shuntian Mansion with Li Mu.

The people in Zhonghua Pavilion are not very good at martial arts, but they are very suitable as agents of Zhengqi Hall.

Because they don't look like spies either in appearance or temperament, so they are more suitable to be spies.

Someone like Jian Chen is not suitable. His image and temperament are too outstanding and he attracts attention wherever he goes. Therefore, he cannot do the work of a secret agent and can only stay in his hometown as a decision-maker.

The Supreme Court was completely stable, and Li Mu no longer did any unnecessary things, but concentrated on practicing martial arts.

Occasionally when he is very quiet and thoughtful, he puts on ordinary clothes and walks around in the rivers and lakes, comprehending nature and the world, and appreciating the wind, clouds, frost, and snow. He can often gain something and gain a deeper understanding of martial arts.

After two years of this, Li Mu finally understood the secret of the return of the three elements to one, and the power of the return of the three elements to one level was even greater.

Li Mu was confident that if Emperor Shitian still made little progress, then now he and Emperor Shitian were no longer evenly matched, and he was already 70% sure of defeating Emperor Shitian.

After completing the return of the three elements to one and perfecting the three elements, Li Mu began to practice the top ten martial arts with all his heart. He was also very greedy for the terrifying power of Kill in All Directions and Destruction in All Directions.

If he can practice it before the time of the Seven Martial Arts to Slay Dragons comes, he will be more confident when facing Emperor Shitian.

Long Yuan is in his pocket, and no one can take away even a piece of it.

Because Li Mu knew very well that this world was not his end, and he was bound to face a more martial world in the future.

Therefore, he must try his best to improve his strength to ensure that he can cope with any situation and survive well.

…

On a quiet river beach, Li Mujing stood here, looking at the endlessly flowing river, with some kind of enlightenment in his eyes.

Suddenly, he held his right hand empty and placed it on his left waist. He took a step forward with his right leg. A cold breath surged in his palm. A long knife made of black ice started from the handle and quickly spread out of the blade.

Just when the long knife appeared completely, Li Mu pressed his left hand on the back of the knife and suddenly made a movement to draw the knife forward with his right hand.

The moment he drew the knife, he pointed it toward the river in front of him.

This simple move contains a mysterious and unpredictable artistic conception, which is the "meaning" of the move.

The river was divided into two, and what was shocking was that the water in the upper reaches rolled back, and the water in the lower reaches surged downstream.

In the middle of the river, an obvious break appeared, exposing even the bottom of the river.

The entire river seemed to have been cut off by Li Mu's knife.

After a few breaths, Li Mu restrained his thoughts, and the river water suddenly poured into the gap, filling it up again.

A satisfied smile appeared on Li Mu's face. Unexpectedly, passing by this small river, he actually understood the meaning of the "draw the knife to cut off the water" trick. This was a surprise.

And this is exactly the meaning and benefit of traveling around the world.

After looking at the Xuanbing sword in his palm, Li Mu threw it into the river and turned around to walk up the road.

He doesn't have any goals, he just walks around aimlessly, wherever he goes.

Anyway, he didn't need to eat or sleep. The fifteenth level of Dragon Elephant Prajna Kung Fu gave him endless physical strength. Even if he kept walking like this, he wouldn't feel tired.

At this moment, a shout came from afar, making him frown.

"Stop, don't run."

"Catch them."

"Hurry up and chase them, they can't escape."

Not far from the river beach, a chase was taking place on a gently sloping path.

A young woman with a beautiful face, messy hair, and a very haggard look was holding a branch that she used as a sword in her right hand, and running away with a three or four-year-old child in her left hand.

This should be a mother and son. Behind them, more than ten feet away, were pursued by a dozen martial arts practitioners holding knives and swords.

The young woman was breathing heavily, with a panicked look on her face.

She was not afraid of death, but she knew that if she died here, they would not let her child go.

Unfortunately, the child slowed her down after all. In addition, she ran away for a long time and her physical strength was already exhausted, so she was eventually caught up.

The young woman pushed the child aside, danced the branches in her hands, and fought with the surrounding pursuers.

Her swordsmanship is actually quite strong, as if she were a master of martial arts. If she were at her peak, she would probably be at the level of a first-rate master.

However, she was already at the end of her strength, and a dozen second-rate people with full energy were enough to kill her.

After only a dozen moves, the branch in her hand was knocked away, and she was hit with a slap on the chest and back, causing her to fall down the gentle slope beside the road.

The child fell to the ground. When he saw this, his face burst into tears. He cried loudly and anxiously, "Mother... mother..."

The young woman rolled down the gentle slope and stopped right next to Li Mu, who was frowning.

The young woman with blood on the corner of her mouth noticed someone beside her. She looked closely and saw a middle-aged man with a majestic face.

This was an unfamiliar face, obviously not the group that was chasing him.

The young woman didn't care about anything else, struggled to turn over, reached out to hug Li Mu's calf, and begged: "Senior, please, please save my child."

"Kill her, come on." The dozen or so martial arts men became energetic and shouted as they chased down the gentle slope.

Seeing the young woman's movements, everyone subconsciously stopped.

There was an aura about Li Mu that they couldn't describe, which made them dare not offend him easily.

The leader of the martial arts community said to Li Mu: "Senior, this is our personal enmity, please don't interfere too much."
