The Li Clan's Threat
Iron Mountain City, Li Clan.
Outside the entire Li family, there were hundreds of soldiers in black iron armor stationed there. Each one of them had the cultivation of the Spirit Martial Realm and was filled with killing intent.
These were the imperial guards of the Empire. They represented the will of the Empire.
"The Long Clan is finished this time. I didn't expect Li Yuan Wu's master to be the master of the Empire's Crown Prince!"
"Not only that, the man who came back with Li Yuan Wu is the son of the Zhenyuan General. He is the Crown Prince's favorite. It seems that the Crown Prince thinks highly of Li Yuan Wu."
"If Li Yuan Wu becomes the Crown Prince's disciple, he will be the Crown Prince's disciple. This status alone will make the Li Clan the overlord of Iron Mountain City!"
… …
Every person who passed by the Long Clan's residence was in awe. They were secretly worried for the Long Clan. Just these hundreds of black armored soldiers were enough to make the Li Clan the number one clan in Iron Mountain City!
Inside the residence, Li Yuan Wu was sitting on the Patriarch's seat. His father, Li Kang, was sitting next to him.
Beside him, a handsome man with sword-like eyes and starry eyebrows stood beside him. He was wearing a divine silver armor, and he was imposing without being angry. The surrounding Li family members were all silent as they exchanged greetings.
"Father, you're saying that Li Tian and Li Xu died because of the Long Clan?" Li Yuan Wu's voice was as cold as ice.
Li Kang nodded. He clenched his fist and said sternly: "It's all because of that trash, Long Chen. When the purple mist sealed the mountain, he used some unknown method to kill Li Tian. A few days ago, when your brother wanted to take revenge, he was secretly killed by the Long Clan."
Li Yuan Wu nodded and said in a deep voice: "Chang Feng, please go to the Li Clan again and pass on my message to the Long Clan!"
The silver armored man on the side shouted. He turned around and walked out. After that, he brought twenty black armored soldiers to the Long Clan's residence.
There were more than twenty Black Armoured Soldiers. Each one of them was at the third level of the Ling Qi layer. They looked like a black flood as they walked on the street.
This group of people quickly arrived in front of the Long Clan's residence. They were in a neat formation. The surrounding people were all in awe. They couldn't help but shake their heads while staring at the Long Clan's residence.
At the gate, one of the Long family's gatekeepers saw this scene and hurriedly closed the gate, shouting as he ran inside.
"Patriarch, there are a bunch of Spirit Martial Realm Black Iron Soldiers blocking the gate!" The old man guarding the gate rushed into the meeting hall in a panic and fell to the ground.
Long Tianxing and the others from the Hall of Elders were shocked. Why would the empire's army surround the Long family?
"Could it be that the rumors in the city these days are true? That the master of the eldest son of the Li family is really the master of the First Prince of the Empire?" An old man cried out.
Long Tianxing's face instantly turned ashen. He led the people from the Hall of Elders out of the mansion.
Long Haotian, who was walking at the back, revealed a smile on his face. He was overjoyed in his heart and felt as if the heavens were helping him!
When Long Tianxing and the other elders saw this group of Black Iron Soldiers, their faces immediately darkened. It seemed that the rumors were true. Li Yuanwu's master was really the master of the First Prince of the Empire. In other words, Li Yuanwu was the First Prince's junior brother!
When this thought appeared, every disciple of the Long family felt as if they were struck by lightning. There were countless cities under the Empire. Iron Mountain City was located in a remote corner. How could it compete with the First Prince of the Empire?
"Sir, what is the meaning of this?" Long Tianxing took a deep breath and walked forward to ask in a deep voice.
"I am Xie Changfeng, the son of the Zhenyuan General. I am here today to give the Long family a way out …" The silver-armored man stood in front of the crowd with a playful smile. In his eyes, the Long family of Iron Mountain City was just a joke.
"What way out?" Long Tianxing clenched his fists tightly.
"Cripple Long Chen, break the tendons in his arms and legs, and hand him over to the Li family to mourn for Li Tian and Li Xu for three years. Otherwise … after the Grand Competition of the Three Cities, the Long family will be exterminated!"
Hiss!
Xie Changfeng's glance made the surrounding people suck in a breath of cold air. The Long family will be exterminated?
In the past, even if the head of the Li family had said such arrogant words, no one would have taken it seriously. But now, everyone deeply believed that the person who spoke was the son of the Empire's Major General, the Zhenyuan General.
"That's all I have to say. If Long Chen is not sent to the Li family before the Grand Competition of the Three Cities, the consequences will be at your own risk!" Xie Changfeng sneered and led the many armored soldiers away.
After Xie Changfeng left, the entire Long family seemed to be shrouded by a layer of dark clouds. Long Tianxing and the many people of the Hall of Elders stayed in the meeting hall until sunset.
"All of you get out. As long as I, Long Tianxing, am alive, I will never agree to such conditions!"
With Long Tianxing's angry roar, the meeting came to an end. But in the next few days, there would be noise in the meeting hall every day. Long Haotian, who had lost his support, had gathered a group of supporters again.
For a time, the Long family was completely divided because of Xie Changfeng's words.
On one side, there were many elders led by the second elder and some of the younger generation who believed that Long Chen must not be handed over. Otherwise, the Long family would be annexed by the Li family one day.
On the other side, there was a group of people led by Long Haotian. This group of people believed that the identity of Li Yuanwu from the Li family had already exceeded the expectations of all the families in Iron Mountain City. The Li family would definitely become the overlord of Iron Mountain City. If handing over Long Chen could appease the anger of the Li family, why not?
Of course, most of the people who stood behind Long Tianxing had seen the scene of Long Chen killing the first elder. In their hearts, Long Chen was no longer the trash of the past.
…
In the cultivation room, Long Chen looked at the empty Burning Blood Pill bottle in his hand and let out a sigh of relief. He said to himself, "I was only a little bit away from stepping into the Spiritual Martial Realm. The next two Realm Breaking Pills are at least enough for me to step into the Spiritual Martial Realm."
Long Chen casually punched the Strength Measuring Stone Pillar. The entire Strength Measuring Stone Pillar was directly shattered.
"Mortal Martial Realm Level 12, 24 Martial Veins, a single punch of 2400 Jin, comparable to the Spiritual Martial Realm Level 2, the strength of two Dragon Elephants!" Long Chen laughed. In just a dozen days, he had stepped into the Mortal Martial Realm Level 12 from the Mortal Martial Realm Level 4. This cultivation speed was much faster than in his previous life.
Consecutively crossing eight levels, it could be said to be a cultivation speed that defied the natural order.
Rumble!
Just as Long Chen was praising the Primal Chaos Golden Codex, the stone door of the alchemy room slowly opened. Qing Xuan walked in with a face full of anxiety.
"Young master, you have finally finished your cultivation. Master said that as long as you wake up from your meditation, I should immediately leave the Long family with you, far away from Iron Mountain City …" Qing Xuan's face was filled with sadness, but he was also very anxious.
Long Chen's face suddenly sank. He asked, "What do you mean? Did something happen to the Li family? "
