The old faker was dumbfounded.

He turned around and glanced at Li Mu, saying, “You are simply a jinx.
I lost as soon as you came in.”

Li Mu’s face darkened, looking confused.

Old Zhang said, “Don’t say that.
You didn’t win a single game when Little Mu was not here.”

The old faker was rendered speechless.

After the old men left, Li Mu remembered what happened today at the Immortal-Devil Assembly.
He asked, “You told me that you were practicing hand-to-hand meditation, didn’t you? Why did you take action?”

The old faker said, “If I hadn’t taken action to intimidate them, you would have already died.”

Li Mu said, “To intimidate them?”

The old faker put away mahjong and changed the subject.
“Well, forget about those trivial things.
Let’s talk about the immortal palace.
Boy, you were too high-profile.
You took first place on two lists and even went for Heaven Rankings, but I like that.
He-he…
It is obvious that the six major Divine Clans and the six clans of traitorous devils have reached a compromise this time.
They want to integrate the six keys and open the gate of the immortal palace, and they don’t want to miss the time.
They used the three lists of Heaven, Earth and Human to determine the candidates for entry into the immortal palace.
That seems generous, but in fact, their purpose is just to find more cannon fodder.
He-he, you have to be careful after you enter the palace.”

Li Mu nodded.

“Bi Yan also reminded me of the dangers there.

“Hold on.
What do you mean by saying ‘entering the palace’? It sounds as if I were going to become a eunuch.”

Li Mu asked, “Won’t you go with me?”

The old faker said, “For what? I’m living a happy life now.
I can drink some wine, take a nap, play mahjong and kill time with my old friends every day…
Why should I go there to fight and kill?”

“Well, but you can never win a mahjong game.”

“So what? The most important thing is playing.”

“You have come to Earth to attain Tao, right? Are you going to waste the opportunity for entering the immortal palace?”

“My Great Way is not in the immortal palace.”

Li Mu tried to persuade the old faker for a long time, but he had no choice but to give up.
The old faker was firmly determined not to go.

At first, Li Mu wanted to coax the old faker into going to the immortal palace with him.
After all, the old faker was like a strong tree to which he could hold on, and it would be stupid if he didn’t try to get the old faker’s help.
Now, however, it seemed that he didn’t have much of a chance to have the old faker’s help.

In the next few days, he practiced martial arts in Randeng Temple while waiting for the news about the opening of the immortal palace.

Li Mu and the Cloud Light Saintess both got on the three lists and obtained the qualifications for entering the immortal palace.
They just needed to wait for the notice from Jintai Temple.

“The injury in my spine seems to be getting worse.”

In the past few days, Li Mu found that the eight cracks in his spine were affecting his strength more and more greatly, and the pain was getting more intense.
It seemed that the Taoist injury had begun to worsen.
He had to enter the immortal palace and find the top-grade magic fruits to cure the injury as soon as possible.
Otherwise, he would be in great trouble.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

One day, a message came from Jintai Temple, informing that the immortal palace was going to be opened.

“My master sent me here to invite you to Mount Tai.
Please go to the Southern Sky Gate after five days for the opening of the gate of the immortal palace.” The messenger was an ordinary young Taoist monk from Jintai Temple.
He behaved very respectfully.

After arranging everything in Randeng Temple and discussing with the old faker, Li Mu was ready to set off.

Just then, the chief of the Yellow Dragon Tribe appeared at the gate of Randeng Temple, led by Luo Liang.

“Mr.
Li, Chief Huang said he needed to find you for something important.” Luo Liang felt a little guilty.
In order to pursue Huang Ye’er, he had to rack his brains.
This time, he brought the chief of the Yellow Dragon Tribe here without informing Li Mu in advance, so he was a little anxious.

Fortunately, Li Mu didn’t mind that.
He asked, “Mr.
Huang, what can I do for you?”

The chief of the Yellow Dragon Tribe suddenly fell on his knees before Li Mu.

Li Mu was taken aback.
He hurriedly said, “Mr.
Huang, what are you doing? Please get up.”

“Mr.
Li, I know that you are going to enter the immortal palace.
I have a presumptuous request.
Please help me, Mr.
Li.” The chief of the Yellow Dragon Tribe was already an old man.
After Li Mu helped him up, he struggled to kneel down again.

Li Mu said, “Mr.
Huang, please don’t do this.
Just let me know what you need.
If I could help you, I would surely do my best.”

The chief of the Yellow Dragon Tribe said, “Mr.
Li, please take me to the immortal palace.”

“Well…” Li Mu thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but that the candidates for entering the immortal palace are determined by the six major Divine Clans of the Celestial Court.
Mr.
Huang, I suppose you know how strict the heaven rules of the Celestial Court are.
Even though I really want to take you there, I’m not able to do that.
Moreover, the immortal palace is full of dangers.
Considering your strength, you will have a very slim chance of survival there.
I can’t even protect myself, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to protect you.”

Initially, the chief of the Yellow Dragon Tribe just wanted to see Li Mu in person and have a try.
However, when he heard the “heaven rules”, he knew that if he were to insist, he would put Li Mu in a difficult position, and it would be futile.

He seemed to be weighing something, gritting his teeth.
After thinking for a long time, he finally made up his mind.
He said, “In that case, please help me take something into the immortal palace.
Mr.
Li, the people of the Yellow Dragon Tribe will always remember your great favor.
In return for your help, I will give you a premium gift to help you stay safe and find surprising treasures in the immortal palace.”
