After E Gui left, Mu Yi was unable to calm down for a long time . He was surprised by the powerful Saint Insect and he was about to meet the old Taoist Priest again . The old Taoist Priest’s body had not been found before so Mu Yi could not rest . Seeing that he was about to fulfill his goal, he could not help being nervous .
“Don’t worry, old man . No matter who tries to get in the way, I promise that I will take you home,” said Mu Yi firmly .
Tomorrow was the fifth day of May . Mu Yi did not know why Li the Cripple had chosen this day at first . After getting the news about Lin Xi and his 8000 soldiers, he understood Li the Cripple’s intentions .
The fifth day of May in the lunar calendar was the day of the Dragon Boat Festival . According to the formula of twelve branches, may was also called the noon month . The noon month was also known as the Yang Period . So the Dragon Boat Festival was also called the Duan Yang and Duan meant the beginning period .
In midsummer, the sun went up to the highest point of the sky . At noon, Yang Qi was especially powerful so much so that Yin Qi was weakened . Usually at this time, all ghosts were dormant . That was the reason why Li the Cripple chose the fifth day of May . He was fearless . He knew it was extremely dangerous but he still wanted to achieve his purpose .
However, Mu Yi wouldn’t allow others to exploit the old Taoist Priest’s body as a tool to kill people . That was a blasphemy against him . It was best for the old Taoist Priest to be buried on Funiu Mountain .
Early the next morning, Mu Yi waited for Li the Cripple at the edge of the forest . In order not to be detected, he hid in a tree and let Nian Nuer and Big Slave hide in another place . No matter which way Li the Cripple came from, it was impossible for Li the Cripple to escape .
Mu Yi had been in the tree for almost four hours . The sun had risen higher, but there was no sign of Li the Cripple . He would have doubted whether Li the Cripple was really coming but he trusted E Gui . A figure finally appeared in Mu Yi’s sights, wearing the Tu nationality clothes .

Mu Yi recognized the man after he got closer . He was the clerk in the coffin shop . He came to the edge of the forest and walked around for a while . When he didn’t find anything or anyone, he took out a whistle and blew it hard .
Two other people wearing Tu clothes appeared in the distance . The man in front was limping, and the one following him walked mechanically . It was Li the Cripple and old Taoist Priest . Mu Yi could barely contain his excitement . The old Taoist Priest seemed to be completely different from a few months ago . His body looked burlier and he was bald . His face was expressionless .
He took a deep breath . He couldn’t wait to kill Li the Cripple in order to let the old Taoist Priest’s spirit rest in peace . He knew that now wasn’t the time . What he needed was a sure bet, he definitely couldn’t let Li the Cripple escape . Mu Yi decided to sit tight until Li the Cripple got near .
“Sir, this place is remote and secluded . Do we need to be so careful?” The clerk complained .
“I can’t tell why my eyelids have been jumping since I woke up this morning . I always feel like this when something bad is going to happen . I can’t be careless . ” Li the Cripple shook his head and said .
He was scowling and obviously worried . He let out a breath in a relief when he looked around and saw no one .
“You don’t have to worry, sir . We have fighting zombies . They are strong . They can easily kill any enemy who finds us . ” Li Cang said .

He wasn’t bothered . He was done with hiding . Besides, he knew how powerful the fighting zombies were . Li Cang wasn’t happy with Li the Cripple’s cautiousness .
“You know nothing at all . Our family has fallen into decay . Almost everyone sees us as enemies . We have to be careful . Raising zombies is a critical job for us . As long as we can get through this, we can gain a foothold . At that time, I will go destroy the Quyi village . I will make that bastard kneel in front of me and repent . Then I will rebuild our family,” said Li the Cripple, glancing at Li Cang .
“Sir, you said that the fighting zombie absorbed the power of those dead soldiers . Can we really get the second breakthrough?” Said Li Cang .
Li Cang stared at the fighting zombie behind him . He was well aware of the difficulty of obtaining a second breakthrough . In the world, all the small sects never had a chance to make a second breakthrough . When a sect got a second breakthrough, it would be the same as reaching the top of the second difficulty .
“It’s true that the fighting zombie was trained by the founder in this way . It’s a powerful zombie which can get the second breakthrough . ” Li the Cripple said with a bright face .
His expression suggested that he had imagined the picture of terrorizing the world with fighting zombies in the future .
“That’s great . Let’s do it . As long as we finally create the fighting zombies, we won’t have to hide anymore . ” Li Cang said excitedly .
“Okay, but it’s too dangerous for you to stay here alone . You can’t be careless just because today is the Dragon Boat Festival . “Said Li the Cripple .

“Sir, please let me go with you . I want to experience it . ” Li Cang said immediately .
“No, it’s too dangerous for you . ” Li the Cripple shook his head .
He attached great importance to Li Cang so he did not want this disciple to be in danger . They got closer to the forest as they talked to each other . The fighting zombie behind them stopped suddenly and looked ahead . It was staring at a big tree in the forest .
Li the Cripple hid behind the fighting zombie and shouted vigilantly, “Who is there?”
“Li Ji, go to hell!” A cold voice said .
Mu Yi jumped out in front of them . He was so fast that Li the Cripple wasn’t able to react at all . Li Ji was Li the Cripple’s real name . Over the years, even Li the Cripple had almost forgotten his real name .
“Who are you?” Li the Cripple asked .
He stared at Mu Yi . He wasn’t afraid of being raided . What really surprised him was that this man knew his real name . He was sure that this man had bad intentions .
“Who am I? How could you forget!” Mu Yi smiled coldly, then took off his hat .
Li the Cripple stared at Mu Yi for a long time before something came to him . He was astonished and frightened . Mu Yi was not quite the same as a year and a half ago but he was still recognizable . Mu Yi’s Taoist hairstyle helped him remember this young Taoist he had met before .
Li the Cripple looked at Mu Yi and then looked at the fighting zombie . He realized the reason why Mu Yi was there . He never thought that even though his enemy hadn’t found him yet, a young Taoist could . He also seemed to be very powerful . How had this happened? At the beginning, he thought Mu Yi was just a young Taoist who knew nothing of martial arts .
Li the Cripple was still able to breathe a sigh of relief . He believed that Mu Yi had become much stronger than before, but he would not be stronger than his fighting zombie . As long as the man wasn’t an enemy like Qu Yangqing, he didn’t need to worry .
Although Mu Yi had gotten famous in the past six months, Li the Cripple thought he was unknown . He didn’t even know Mu Yi’s name . If he had known about Mu Yi’s reputation, he would not have relaxed .
“Li Ji, you tricked me and turned my master’s body into a fighting zombie . I’m going to get my revenge today . ” He said coldly .
“Young Taoist, are you bored of life? If it hadn’t been for your master who turned into a zombie and remained, you would have been killed that night,” said Li the Cripple viciously .
“I bet that you will regret that decision . ” Mu Yi laughed .
He now understood why Li the Cripple let him off that night . When the old Taoist Priest had just been transformed, he couldn’t be completely manipulated by Li the Cripple . However, he was going to regret not letting his disciples kill Mu Yi .
