194: Li Mu looked at Jin Meiting: Do you know me?

Li Mu?!

Jin Meiting looked at the calm Li Mu in front of her with great surprise, never expecting that her desperate search for help would lead to the arrival of such a powerful figure as Li Mu.

Almost instinctively, Jin Meiting looked into Li Mu's eyes.

Because the eyes are the windows to the Soul, she believed she was a good judge of character, having served in management at Ji Jiangxue's company for so long, her ability to read people was naturally not bad.

But the next second, she froze.

She saw that although Li Mu always had a faint smile on his face, as if the chaotic Yao Beasts in front of him couldn't faze him in the slightest.

However, his eyes revealed a complex emotion completely unbefitting his age, as if carrying a hint of the vicissitudes that come from having experienced great storms.

She suddenly remembered Wan Musi's full report on her initial contact with Li Mu, which mentioned what kind of person Li Mu felt like to Wan Musi.

At that time, she knew that as someone who had experienced Rebirth and fought against enemies for a hundred years in such a desperate world in his previous life, his eyes could naturally not be as clear as those of young people today.

But now that she finally saw it for herself, Jin Meiting truly understood what kind of feeling this was.

Her mind subconsciously recalled the contents of the diary, and looking at the calm smile on Li Mu's face, her heart began to stir.

However, while she was still in a daze, Li Mu on the side said calmly, "Are you tired? Just rest well here and recover your Spiritual Qi. I'll handle these Yao Beasts."

Hearing Li Mu's words, Jin Meiting nodded blankly, then watched as Li Mu walked towards the group of Yao Beasts.

To be fair, this was her first true face-to-face encounter with Li Mu.

When she first entered the Legacy space, Li Mu's Primordial Spirit had actually visited once, but only Ji Jiangxue had seen him at that time.

However, after joining the Special Affairs Handling Bureau, there was a record of Li Mu's appearance, so she naturally recognized Li Mu and remembered him very clearly!

Although the contents written in the diary did not mention the relationship between her and Li Mu.

But as a fellow member of the Special Affairs Handling Bureau, even if they weren't in the same team, there must have been quite a lot of interaction!

And since they were both comrades fighting for humanity, their relationship shouldn't be bad...

At this moment, Jin Meiting looked at Li Mu's back, feeling a little lost in thought.

Of course, this wasn't about developing affection for Li Mu; it was merely a feeling of melancholy, knowing that Li Mu's Rebirth meant he would have to re-experience that bleak future.

Even if Li Mu had been Reborn and made many changes, the enemy was so powerful that the future would inevitably still be very tragic.

Forcing Li Mu to go through it all again was undoubtedly very cruel to him!

Thinking of this, Jin Meiting's fists involuntarily clenched.

She had seen the contents of the diary, and naturally knew that to change her own fate in the future, she could only Cultivate harder now and make herself stronger!

This way, she would be able to help Li Mu in future battles.

At the same time, she also wanted to ask Li Mu about some things concerning the future, but seeing Li Mu currently dealing with these Yao Beasts, she forcibly suppressed the doubts in her heart, intending to ask after Li Mu had finished dealing with them.

...

Li Mu slowly approached the chaotic Yao Beasts.

He didn't make any other moves, yet these Yao Beasts all stopped their infighting and collectively looked at Li Mu not far away.

Because they sensed an aura emanating from Li Mu that made them all feel fear.

Although the figure in front of them was just a tiny human, he actually made them feel fear in their hearts, which was completely different from the feeling the previous human female gave them.

However, they clearly didn't sense any Spiritual Qi fluctuations from this human in front of them; he looked like an ordinary, unremarkable human being.

They thought the feeling Li Mu had just given them was a misperception, and immediately became enraged.

One by one, they roared and charged towards Li Mu.

However, Li Mu looked at these Yao Beasts, merely slowly raising his right hand, his fingers moving slightly, and a single word was calmly spoken: "Perish!"

The next second, the originally ferocious and destructive Yao Beasts were instantly frozen in place.

Immediately after, a gentle breeze blew, and these Yao Beasts all turned into dust and were scattered, leaving no trace of their bodies.

Seeing this scene, Jin Meiting's eyes widened directly, looking at what had just happened with an expression of disbelief.

She couldn't understand how Li Mu had done it just now.

He had only moved his finger, and all those Yao Beasts were instantly annihilated at once?

What kind of monster is this!

Is this Li Mu's current strength...?

She had fought these Yao Beasts before, so she naturally knew how strong they were.

Although she also knew that Li Mu's strength was great and these Yao Beasts were definitely no match for him, this was just too outrageous, wasn't it?

Strictly speaking, it had only been a few months since Li Mu's Rebirth, and he had only started Cultivating a little earlier than her, right?

Is this the benefit of experience brought by a Rebirth?

For a moment, Jin Meiting felt a little envious...

Afterward, Jin Meiting came to Li Mu's side and looked at where the Yao Beasts had stood; it was now empty.

Then she turned to look at Li Mu again, the shock in her heart still not calming down for a long time.

She asked, "Li Mu, what is your current strength?"

The Realm of Refining Spirit to Return to Emptiness mentioned in his diary, is it that strong...?

Hearing her words, Li Mu feigned surprise: "You know me?"

"Ah? Uh..."

Jin Meiting reacted, suddenly stuttering, unsure how to answer.

After thinking for a moment, she finally decided to reveal that she possessed the diary.

However, just as she opened her mouth, she suddenly felt goosebumps all over her body, a tremor from the depths of her Soul, and her throat seemed to be choked at that moment.

Jin Meiting's eyes widened; at this moment, she was stunned.

Although the feeling just now disappeared in an instant, Jin Meiting felt as if she had walked through the gates of hell, her whole body drenched in cold sweat.

Seeing this, Li Mu naturally knew what was going on.

This was the System's mechanism; anyone with a copy of the diary could not reveal the diary's existence to Li Mu.

However, Li Mu still stepped forward to support Jin Meiting, asking, "What's wrong with you?"

Jin Meiting shook her head, finding an excuse: "N-nothing, maybe it's Spiritual Qi exhaustion."

Then she continued, "I heard Wan Musi mention you, so I know your name."

Hearing this, Li Mu nodded: "Is that so...?"

Then he flashed a brilliant smile: "Thank you for remembering my name..."

At this moment, a plot point suddenly came to Li Mu's mind, and he felt he could use it to set something up for Jin Meiting.
