Chapter 204 - The Li Family Was In Danger
Chapter 204: The Li Family Was In Danger
“Ah!”
Deacon Yu wasn’t paying attention when he was ambushed by the middle-aged man in gray.
“I’m going to kill you!”
“You’re courting death!”
Bang!
Deacon Yu slammed his palm onto the head of the middle-aged man in memory.
Pfft!
The man in gray died instantly.
Deacon Yu clutched his chest and gritted his teeth.
“How dare you ambush me? How dare you!”
When he turned around and saw Bai Zhijing staring at him like a dead fish, he became dispirited.
“Did you kill him to silence him?”
“Elder Bai, don’t talk nonsense! He ambushed me.”
“I was talking nonsense? Hehe!”
Bai Zhijing sneered.
The person who was talking nonsense slandered her for talking nonsense.
If it wasn’t for this time, she wouldn’t have known that there were still parts of the Xuantian Sect where affairs were handled in a biased manner.
Perhaps it wasn’t just the hall of affairs. There were probably problems in other places as well.
Her seniors were busy with the important matters of the sect, and the other elders didn’t have much energy to care about these trivial matters.
It was time for the sect to be cleaned up.
“A puny deacon had distorted the truth and justice, using his position to seek personal benefits. Yiyi, bring some people to raid the house!”
Bai Zhijing directly gave the order.
“You… you can’t…”
On the stairs not far away
Li Mu pursed his lips.
What was there to say to this kind of bastard?
He would just kill him!
If he had to explain the principles and rules thoroughly, he would still be punished according to the rules in the end.
Look at the demon clan, they relied on their fists to speak.
They spoke to the internal parties and treated external parties with force.
How could they be so reasonable?
Look at this reasoning, it was almost exploited by this villain.
No wonder the demon clan could develop so rapidly.
The greatest logic in this world was that the strong were king, and the rules set by others were all loopholes for the villain.
After waiting for a long time, Li Jiao came out with her identity jade token with a smile on her face.
“Senior, sorry for the wait.”
“It was a long time.”
“I have to go back and pack up. I would be out soon.”
“Do I have to wait again!”
Feeling helpless, Li Mu sat back down on the stone steps and stared blankly at the disciples coming and going.
Zi Yang City.
In the main hall of the Li family.
Including all the elders of the Li family, everyone was gathered here.
At this moment, everyone who had returned home had an anxious and desperate look in their eyes. A few elders circled the main hall while the other elders remained silent.
Da Da ~
The sound of footsteps could be heard from outside.
The noisy hall suddenly became quiet.
The group of elders hurriedly turned their heads to look.
When they saw the person who had come, everyone hurriedly surrounded him.
The person who had come was none other than the Li clan’s clan head, Li Huiwu.
“Clan Head, how was it? Did the fifth clan agree?”
The first elder’s voice was filled with urgency.
As a clan elder, his emotions would never be revealed on the surface.
The dignified atmosphere had already disappeared.
“No…”
Li Huiwu shook his head.
In an instant, the hall was surrounded by an aura of defeat.
“How was that possible? The price we paid, wasn’t high enough?”
The second elder asked.
He looked flustered and exasperated.
The fifth clan was one of the top 100 clans of the human clan in the Tianyao region.
The clan started by accepting other people’s employment.
In the past, the fifth family and the Li family also had some relations.
As the Sun and the Moon eroded, the two families gradually lost contact. The fifth family slowly made a fortune, and the strength of the family continued to grow.
This time, Li Huiwu went to the fifth family and wanted to pay for the safety of the Li family.
Seeing that the Li family and the fifth family had a good relationship in the past, the fifth family would accept the employment and send a few experts.
“No, the fifth family wasn’t having an easy time either. Besides, our Zi Yang City was too far away from them.”
Li Huiwu shook his head, feeling helpless.
“There was someone who attacked the fifth family?”
“Who else besides the orcs?”
“Didn’t the Xuantian Sect rose to power? How dare they?”
“I’m afraid this was a test. They didn’t dare to think that the Xuantian Sect would make a move and were worried that the ancestor would make a move. However, they were pressuring the human clan and wanted to see the reaction of the Xuantian Sect.”
…
Silence.
“The Ox family had completed the transformation of their bloodline and became formidable. Their overall strength was much stronger than ours. In addition, they had the support of the Ox demon behind them. In the future, Zi Yang City would belong to the Ox family.”
After a long while, the third elder sighed.
He had an attitude of appointment.
“We could die, but we have to leave a descendant!”
“If you could escape and seek refuge with your relatives, then do it! If you couldn’t escape, then you could only appoint someone.”
“What are you saying? If you had nowhere else to go, then go to the Xuantian Sect and seek refuge with my granddaughter, Li Jiao.”
The second elder said.
“Li Jiao didn’t know anything about her current situation. It would probably be very difficult for her to take care of herself. How could she spare the energy to take care of other children?”
Sigh.
There were sighs.
Li Jiao had finally left the Li family.
In the past, that was the pride of Zi Yang City. The Li family would celebrate.
If Li Jiao had enough time to establish herself in the Xuantian Sect and befriend a group of senior and junior disciples, then the Li family could still be saved.
Where could they find the time?
Li Jiao’s aptitude was so bad that they were very surprised that she could enter the Xuantian sect.
“Forget it, forget it! At most, we would fight it out with the Ox people.”
“What was there to fight for? After the Ox family’s elders absorbed the ox pills, their strength increased one after another. In addition, they have the virtual realm ox demon backing them. Such a huge monster, even if we gave it our all, we probably wouldn’t even be able to bite off a mouthful of meat.”
Although the words were unpleasant, it was the truth.
The hall was silent.
Without support, no one was willing to support them. Their Li family was finished.
The only possibility was that Li Jiao was chosen as a personal disciple.
Would that be possible?
They received news that Li Jiao had become a new disciple of the Xuantian Sect.
There was still one to two years of assessment before a new disciple became an official disciple. After the assessment, whether it was a handyman or an inner sect disciple, they still did not know.
Personal disciples could only be selected from the inner sect disciples.
They knew the rules of the Xuantian Sect.
It was even more hopeless than looking for external help.
Li Jiao ran around with all her might because she missed her family.
After two months, Li Jiao appeared in Zi Yang City with Li Mu.
“Senior, my home is right in front of us.”
Li Jiao’s voice was trembling.
From the moment they left the house until now, it could be considered a year and a half for the Li family.
It took her more than four months to travel from the Li family to the Xuantian Sect. She had stayed in the Xuantian Sect for almost a year, and it took her two months to return.
After a year and a half, she did not know what the situation at home was.
“Don’t worry, nothing has happened to your family yet!”
On the way, Li Jiao told Li Mu about the situation at home one after another.
“Really?”
“Go back and take a look first! I would take a walk around the city.”
“Senior, since you had come to our home, how could we let you stay outside?”
Li Jiao dragged Li Mu towards the Li family.
After two months of getting along together, Li Mu was kind and unpretentious. He didn’t put on any airs of a senior at all.
Li Jiao didn’t ask much about Li Mu’s background.
After all, they were all from the inner sect.
Be it a senior or a deacon.
As long as they were pulled over, she believed that they could help the Li family.
They entered the Li family easily.
“Miss… Miss…”
When the butler saw Li Jiao, he was shocked!
Why did Li Jiao come back at this time?
The Li family was about to be finished, and everyone else wanted to escape. Why did you come back instead of staying in the Xuantian Sect?
“Quickly arrange a guest room… Eh, where are the servants in our courtyard? Why were you the only one?”
Suddenly, Li Jiao realized that her courtyard was very quiet.
“Miss, stop talking and leave quickly! Before the Ox family does anything, Hurry back to the Xuantian Sect and don’t come out in the future.”
The butler pulled Li Jiao’s arm and pushed her out of the door.
“Were the Ox family about to make a move?”
