200: Ji Jiangxue: Li Mu, welcome back!
On Mount Tai, Ji Jiangxue stood on the highest peak of the Mount Tai Mountain Range, her gaze sweeping over the entire Mount Tai Mountain Range, her brows slightly furrowed.
Starting from last night, she had sensed that with the beginning of the spiritual energy tide, the Spiritual Vein of the Mount Tai Mountain Range also began to gradually strengthen, which meant her strength was also growing stronger.
Similarly, as Mount Tai, which possessed a Spiritual Vein, the number of Yao Beasts and monsters born within it was terrifyingly high.
This single Mount Tai Mountain Range alone had given birth to a number of Yao Beasts that completely surpassed the total sum of all monsters and Yao Beasts killed in Xia Country this time!
And the Yao Beasts that had already been born on Mount Tai before the second spiritual energy tide had, after this spiritual energy tide, reached the Mid Stage, and their number was not small.
Last night kept her busy for a long time before she finally managed to pacify all these Yao Beasts and monsters, preventing them from descending the mountain.
Although Mount Tai also had a Formation set up by Li Mu, which could trap these Yao Beasts and prevent them from descending the mountain.
But as Mount Tai, if she couldn't even control the Yao Beasts on Mount Tai and still needed this Formation to help, wouldn't that make her seem too incompetent!
However, fortunately, after a night, although she was mentally exhausted, no mishaps occurred.
At this moment, Ji Jiangxue was using her authority to check the situation throughout the Mount Tai Mountain Range.
She could imagine that the outside world must be in chaos by now, after all, the spiritual energy tide this time was so impactful!
All she could do was guard Mount Tai well; as a member of the Special Affairs Handling Bureau, she couldn't leave Mount Tai, and this was all she could do…
“Hmm?”
However, at this moment, Ji Jiangxue's gaze suddenly turned towards a certain direction, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
She sensed that in one location on Mount Tai, a young man had suddenly appeared!
And the image of this man was deeply etched in Ji Jiangxue's mind.
Li Mu!
“Why is he here?”
Ji Jiangxue was a little puzzled.
Then, in the next second, Ji Jiangxue vanished from her original spot, and when she reappeared, she was already not far behind Li Mu.
On Mount Tai, Ji Jiangxue could appear anywhere on Mount Tai at will.
When Ji Jiangxue appeared behind Li Mu, she immediately saw what Li Mu was doing at that moment, and her eyes instantly froze.
Because she saw that Li Mu was currently very focused on setting up a Formation, while also occasionally glancing at the surrounding terrain.
Every time a Formation pattern was engraved on the Formation, Ji Jiangxue sensed a subtle connection forming between the surrounding topography and the newly engraved Formation pattern.
Is this a Formation that borrows the power of Mount Tai's earth?
Ji Jiangxue felt some doubt in her heart, but what was even more puzzling was why Li Mu was setting up a Formation here?
Time passed bit by bit, until the last Formation pattern was completed, and the entire Formation instantly burst out with dazzling light, but then the light quickly dissipated, and the Formation also merged into the earth, showing no change at all.
After the Formation was set up, Li Mu then stood up, turned to look at Ji Jiangxue behind him, a faint smile always on his face.
Coming here was naturally one of Li Mu's plans.
Li Mu intended to set this place as an “Otherworld Passage Entrance,” so that the people in the diary copy would know that such a change would occur here in the future, so he came here first to set up the Formation.
Of course, such a passage could actually be set up on any mountain.
The reason Li Mu set it up on Mount Tai was because of Ji Jiangxue!
Because Ji Jiangxue was on Mount Tai!!
Upon seeing Li Mu's full face, Ji Jiangxue's mind almost instinctively recalled the day Jin Meiting entered the Legacy Land to Awaken her abilities.
At that time, she was in her office and personally saw this familiar face!
It was only later, after reading the diary, that she learned what she had seen then was merely Li Mu's Primordial Spirit; what she saw now was Li Mu's true self.
At this moment, Ji Jiangxue suddenly felt her heart rate quicken a little.
After all, this was the first time she had truly seen the owner of the diary.
Looking at the gentle smile on Li Mu's face, and the kind of sorrow in his eyes that seemed to never dissipate.
Recalling the contents of the diary, Ji Jiangxue felt as if her heart was fiercely clutched.
She couldn't imagine what kind of pain and helplessness were hidden beneath that gentle smile.
Women are all emotional, especially at this moment!
“Hello…”
Just as Ji Jiangxue was still lost in thought, Li Mu's soft voice came from her ear, pulling her thoughts back.
“You…”
Ji Jiangxue stared at Li Mu in a daze, at a loss for words for a moment.
Then she saw Li Mu look at her, then at the surroundings, and he smiled and said to her: “Are you… Mount Tai?”
Listening to Li Mu's words and looking at his expression, for some reason, Ji Jiangxue suddenly felt like laughing.
She knew everything, yet he…
Thinking of this, the smile on Ji Jiangxue's face suddenly froze.
That's right, if it weren't for that magical diary, who would know he was a person who had Rebirth from the future?
So in Li Mu's perception, she didn't know Li Mu yet, which was why Li Mu deliberately said that…
Understanding this, Ji Jiangxue also showed a brilliant smile: “That's right!”
“My name is Ji Jiangxue, but now I have undergone Fusion with Mount Tai and become a part of Mount Tai, so calling me Mount Tai is also fine.”
Li Mu naturally knew all of this. Although the Fusion of Ji Jiangxue and Mount Tai's Spiritual Vein was unexpected, he was, after all, the one who had largely caused it.
Then he nodded and prepared to leave.
He had no intention of having a deep conversation with Ji Jiangxue yet; his purpose in coming to Mount Tai had already been achieved.
Now, he only needed Ji Jiangxue to notice the changes in this Formation.
Then he smiled gently: “Ji Jiangxue? That’s a very pleasant name.”
Ji Jiangxue asked: “What is this Formation you set up here used for?”
“To deal with some invaders.”
Li Mu replied with a smile, then conjured the Jin Ming Sword, preparing to leave by sword.
“Ji Jiangxue!”
Just as Li Mu was about to leave, Ji Jiangxue was still in a daze, when Li Mu's voice suddenly came from her ear, pulling Ji Jiangxue's thoughts back.
“Ah? Yes…”
Li Mu smiled: “Don't be so nervous, I just wanted to ask, could you please help me look after this Formation in the future?”
Ji Jiangxue nodded:
“Yes, this is not troublesome…”
“Thank you…”
“Li Mu…”
Li Mu paused, looking at Ji Jiangxue with a surprised expression: “You know me?”
Ji Jiangxue suddenly smiled, as if the surrounding sunlight became much brighter: “Welcome back…”
Li Mu's expression faltered for a moment; he had not expected this scene.
But very quickly, a smile spread across his face…
