Chapter 342: Control
At the same time, Zhao Muning, still standing where she was, showed a startled expression.
She looked at Li Musheng, who had come to stand quietly beside the black-robed elder at some unknown moment, and at the black-robed elder who was now as immobile as she had been, and the look in her eyes was one of stunned disbelief.
She had just recalled the Black Moon Yin Elder's identity and been about to say something flattering, hoping it would make things easier when she revealed her identity as a princess.
But the rest of what she had been going to say never left her mouth, as Li Musheng had already subdued the man, and the Black Moon Yin Elder had not managed even the slightest resistance throughout.
The Black Moon Yin Elder was a Heaven-Human expert who had been renowned in the Great Xuan martial world for a long time. Though he only guarded the first level of the Mystic Mechanism Palace, his martial cultivation was not something an ordinary Heaven-Human expert could match.
For Li Musheng to subdue him this effortlessly, his martial cultivation had to be at least equivalent to that of the guardians on the third or fourth levels of the Mystic Mechanism Palace or above.
"Stop staring at me. Answer the question I just asked."
Li Musheng gave the now statue-like Black Moon Yin Elder a sidelong glance and went back to asking about the matter that interested him.
The Black Moon Yin Elder came back to himself at last, his clouded gaze fixed hard on Li Musheng, as though trying to tell whether the man before him was some old martial world eccentric in disguise.
