"It seems like the Li family is in trouble." In the courtyard, Chu Mu, who was sitting in a pavilion, opened his eyes and said to himself. He then closed his eyes again to comprehend the sword intent.
Whether the Li family was in trouble or not didn't make much of a difference to Chu Mu. If there was no trouble, he would stay here for a while. If there was trouble, he would help solve it. If there was trouble that he couldn't solve, he would just ignore it and try to preserve some of the Li family's bloodline. This was equivalent to repaying Li Daoyuan for giving him the Meteor Sword Energy.
At this moment, the Li family was cleaning up the ruins of the hall. It had to be rebuilt, which would cost a lot of money. The head of the Li family and the elders were discussing how to get through this difficult time.
The Long family's power was undeniable. Even the Li family from a thousand years ago was not much weaker than the Long family. The current Li family was not worth mentioning at all.
The third young master of the Long family had always had a bad reputation in the Jinsha County. His strength was not weak either, so he was valued by the Long family. As a result, the Li family was in danger and could be exterminated.
"Oh right, Head Elder, why did you suddenly come out?"
The second elder asked other questions since the discussion was fruitless.
"I didn't have a suitable martial art, so I couldn't condense sword energy into sword energy. That's why I came out. I didn't expect to encounter something like this. Sigh, the Li family is really full of troubles." Li Tianhe's face was gloomy.
Originally, he had planned to find a suitable martial art to condense the Sword Origin and break through to the Origin Realm. He did not expect to encounter something like this the moment he came out. He had no choice but to use his Sword Qi. Now, even if he found a suitable martial art, he would not be able to break through unless he had a Nine Transformation Pill.
A suitable martial art had to be at least an Earth Level martial art. The Li family didn't even have an Earth Level Upper Level martial art.
Li Mingxin and the others heard this and became depressed. The only person in the family who could reach the Origin Realm in a short period of time, the Head Elder, had lost his chance. Was the Li family destined to disappear?
"No, we still have a chance. Maybe …" Li Mingxin seemed to have thought of something as his eyes lit up.
When the other Elders saw Li Mingxin's expression, they looked at each other. Then, they thought of something and smiled.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from outside.
"From now on, the Li family will no longer exist in Jinsha County." A cold voice rang out, causing the expressions of Li Mingxin and the others to change drastically. They all turned their heads to look and saw three figures walking over. Two of them were very familiar.
Third Young Master Long and Sword Guard Long Jiu. In addition, there was also a black-robed old man. This old man looked to be in his fifties or sixties. His face was skinny and full of wrinkles, but his eyes were very black. Anyone who was stared at by him would feel a chill from the bottom of their heart and their whole body would involuntarily tremble.
The black-robed elder was expressionless. With his hands behind his back, he followed behind Third Young Master Long. He did not put the Li family in his eyes at all.
"Third Young Master, we are willing to pay 10,000 top-level Spirit Stones as compensation. We hope that Third Young Master won't be so magnanimous and won't argue with a small family like ours." Li Mingxin lowered his status and bowed humbly. As the head of the family, he had to consider the survival of the entire family.
"The Li family is indeed a small family. In my eyes, you are like ants, but you have angered me," Third Young Master Long said angrily. Third Young Master Long said angrily. Then his tone changed. "You want to settle the matter peacefully, right? Fine, I'll give you a chance. Take out 100,000 top-grade Spirit Stones and kill yourself here. Then I'll let this matter go like a fart. Otherwise, the whole Li family will be wiped out."
"100,000 top-level Spirit Stones …" The lips of the Li family members trembled. Even if they sold all the Li family members, they would not be able to gather so many Spirit Stones.
"You want me to kill myself here …" Li Tianhe's face was cold.
"Third Young Master wants 100,000 top-level Spirit Stones and an ant like you to kill yourself here. It is already very kind of him. If I attack, you will all become ghosts under my sword." The black-robed elder behind the third young master suddenly took a step forward and spoke in a gloomy voice. His voice was like a fingernail scratching against glass, and it produced waves of incomparably ear-piercing screeches. Moreover, it gave off an enormous aura that was incomparably fierce as it charged towards the Li family members.
This aura was too powerful, and the members of the Li family were unable to resist it. Their bodies swayed, and their faces turned red. Then, they fell to the ground and spat out mouthfuls of blood. Their faces quickly turned pale, and a touch of gray appeared.
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Li Tianhe's body was on the verge of collapse. He looked at the black-robed elder in horror. His throat was extremely dry. "Origin Realm … Origin Realm …"
"It's good that you know. I have never liked to attack, but if I do, I will kill you." The black-robed elder said this cruel fact with a gloomy voice. It was as if he was announcing the death penalty of the Li family.
At this moment, the head of the Li family was extremely uncomfortable. Under such circumstances, they had no way of notifying Chu Mu. Of course, they also had their own thoughts. Chu Mu was only one person, while the Long family was so powerful. Perhaps, Chu Mu would not offend the powerful Long family for the sake of a small family like the Li family. That would not be a wise decision.
"Kill them all." Third Young Master Long waved his hand as if he was going to kill a few chickens and ducks. He did not care about the lives of the Li family members at all.
"Hehehehe, don't blame me for being ruthless. You can only blame yourselves for being blind and daring to offend Third Young Master." The black-robed elder sneered. He did not draw his sword. Instead, he stretched out his left hand and put his index finger and middle finger together. A wisp of Sword Energy condensed. It was extremely sharp.
"Then I will start with you." The black-robed elder stared at Li Tianhe and pointed his finger. The Sword Energy pierced through the air and shot towards Li Tianhe.
The Sword Energy of an Astral Realm swordsman was extremely powerful. Even if Li Tianhe was infinitely close to the Astral Realm, there was still a huge gap between him and the Astral Realm. Facing this Sword Energy, he felt as if he could not dodge it no matter what. In the next moment, his head would be pierced and he would die.
"No … I can't die!" Li Tianhe roared and drew his sword. Sword Qi surged out of his body and condensed into a sword. It was his strongest sword technique. The final song was as bright as a falling star.
"Child's play." The black-robed elder showed a disdainful smile. In his opinion, Li Tianhe was just struggling in vain.
Sure enough, his extremely condensed Sword Energy with 50% sword intent immediately broke Li Tianhe's strongest sword attack. Even the supreme grade sword in Li Tianhe's hand was shattered into pieces. Then, the Sword Energy shot towards Li Tianhe's forehead and was about to pierce it.
It seemed that Li Tianhe was about to die under this terrifying Sword Energy.
Suddenly, with a sigh, a sword radiance seemed to have come from the sky. It descended at an unparalleled speed and hit the Sword Energy. Both were instantly shattered.
"Who is it? Who dares to disturb me? " The black-robed elder was enraged. He frowned and a terrifying killing intent swept out. It was as if there were mountains of corpses and seas of blood floating around him. This was a powerful Astral Realm swordsman who had walked through countless killings.
His anger caused the Li family members to vomit blood again. The weaker ones directly fainted.
Li Tianhe, who was lucky enough to survive, quickly retreated. His face was extremely pale. Li Mingxin and the rest knew that it was Master Chu who had helped the First Elder survive.
"You're so old, yet you're still so hot-tempered. Be careful not to die." A faint voice sounded. The first word seemed to have come from the horizon, while the last word sounded like it was right beside their ears. In front of everyone's eyes, a figure in a white robe appeared.
"Where did this little brat come from …" The black-robed elder said angrily. Then, he was startled. He carefully looked at Chu Mu and laughed, "So it's a brat who has just reached the Astral Realm. Instead of cultivating properly, you actually dare to come out and cause trouble. You really don't know what death is."
The elder was not wrong. Astral Realm swordsmen who had just reached the Astral Realm would not casually appear in the outside world. They would usually integrate everything they had learned to get rid of the impurities and keep the essences so that their strength could match the Astral Realm.
This would usually take a long time, perhaps a year, or three to five years. The black-robed elder could tell that Chu Mu had just reached the Astral Realm less than a year ago. If he dared to appear in the outside world, he was either an idiot or overconfident.
Obviously, in his eyes, Chu Mu was someone who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth. He was the type who thought that he could do whatever he wanted just because he had some talent.
On the other hand, Third Young Master Long revealed a jealous expression. Chu Mu looked to be about the same age as him, but he was already an Astral Realm swordsman. Even if he had just entered the Astral Realm, he was still countless times stronger than him. This was something that he, who had always prided himself on as a genius, could not accept.
"The Li Family is under my protection. If you take out a hundred thousand supreme grade spiritual stones as compensation, then everything will end here." Chu Mu said indifferently. He did not put the black-robed elder in his eyes at all, even though the elder was at the Initial Stage of the Astral Realm.
The Li Family members almost fainted from shock. Chu Mu actually asked for a hundred thousand supreme grade spiritual stones as compensation. They did not dare to accept it at all.
Moreover, they had clearly heard that Chu Mu was only at the Initial Stage of the Astral Realm. He was the kind of swordsman who had just reached the Initial Stage of the Astral Realm and had not fully grasped his strength. As for the black-robed elder, he was obviously a powerful swordsman who had reached the Astral Realm many years ago. From this point alone, it was clear who was stronger and who was weaker.
"Kekekeke, junior, your words are the biggest joke this old man has ever heard. For the sake of these words, this old man has decided to leave you with an intact corpse." The black-robed old man laughed sinisterly. He appeared to be in a very cheerful mood.
"You, kneel down before me and swear to be loyal to me from now on. If you become my dog, I can let you go." Third Young Master Long took advantage of the black-robed elder's presence and was jealous that Chu Mu's talent was higher than his. In the end, he could not help but take a step forward, pointing at Chu Mu and yelling.
"Since Third Young Master has said so, junior, do as Third Young Master says." The black-robed elder laughed evilly, "Don't try to resist, or else I'll let you know the taste of death. It doesn't matter if you have a powerful backer behind you." If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
