After Yang Li entered the house that Qi Hao had arranged for him, he began to forge. It was already dawn, and there was a faint light coming from outside the window. After Yang Li had forged a weapon, the sky was already bright.
Yang Li looked at the weather outside, and just as he was about to blow out to get some fresh air, the repulsive force from the Ancient Lands suddenly appeared, and the defenseless Yang Li was instantly sent out of the Ancient Lands.
Not long after, Qi Feng walked to Yang Li's residence, intending to see the progress of Yang Li's weapon forging. When he arrived, Yang Li had already left, and only a Heaven Rank Long Sword was left on the ground.
Qi Feng was shocked, and hurriedly walked out towards the tribe's entrance, asking the guards if they had seen Yang Li, but they shook their heads, indicating that they had not seen him.
"Damn it, this guy couldn't have awakened his bloodline, and left with the tribe's refining materials, right?!" Qi Feng thought angrily.
After that, he wandered around the tribe, and after confirming that Yang Li really wasn't there, he immediately went to find the Great Elder and told them about the situation.
Qi Hao and Qi Batian were also deeply shocked. However, after careful consideration, Qi Batian resolutely expressed that Qi Feng should not care about this matter and should not spread it out. After all, Yang Li had left before, and there was a possibility that he would return again.
Moreover, even if Yang Li really disappeared with their refining materials and never came back, just the method to stop the Blood Explosion Technique and the formation that Ling Er had set up could completely offset the loss. Therefore, it was best not to spread the news, and Qi Batian also wanted to protect Yang Li's reputation.
One had to know that the formation that Ling Er had set up was under his control, and even the Great Elder had to use all his strength to break it. If Yang Li really came back, and everyone in the tribe scolded him, then no matter how much Yang Li wanted to help the tribe, he would lose his heart.
Naturally, Yang Li could guess the thoughts of the Southern Blood Tribe, but he didn't care. When he could enter the Secret Territory again, he would just hand over the weapons to them, and there was no need to waste too much time thinking about how to explain.
The truth was always the best way to prove one's innocence. After staying in the cave for another seven days, Yang Li once again entered the Ancient Secret Territory, and appeared in the Southern Blood Tribe. The place he was at was the stone house he had stayed in before.
This time, Yang Li did not appear with great fanfare. He only sent a mental message to the Grand Elder and Qi Batian, telling them to come to his residence. After handing over all of the weapons to them, in a short span of seven days, Yang Li had refined nearly forty weapons, causing the two of them to be deeply shocked.
After Yang Li gave them the weapons, he said that he might bring fewer weapons when he came again in the future, only about seven. Moreover, his refining skills were gradually making breakthroughs, and in the future, he might give them weapons of the Half-Law Realm.
The reason why Yang Li said this was that he wanted to give himself time to cultivate. Although refining could also improve his cultivation a little, it was not as fast as wholeheartedly cultivating. After Qi Batian and Qi Batian expressed their understanding, they left, and only then did Yang Li cultivate with peace of mind.
With the appearance of a large number of Heaven-Grade weapons, some of the rumors about Yang Li's disappearance stopped abruptly. Everyone fell silent, and they were full of respect for Yang Li.
…
One month later, in Zhou City.
Yang Li, who had disappeared for a month, once again returned to Zhou City. Although the matter with the Zhou Family was a little unpleasant, he had to repay Zhou Tianfang's help and kindness, so he specially came to Zhou City again.
As he expected, as soon as he entered Zhou City, someone came to see him. "May I ask if you are Young Master Yang Li?"
Yang Li glanced at the other person. The other person was wearing a green Taoist robe with a pattern of the Eight Trigrams on the chest. He looked handsome, and he looked about 30 years old. His appearance was relatively ordinary, the kind that could not be found at a glance in a crowd.
"I said that if you want me to go to the Zhou Family, get Zhou Lingyi from the Zhou Family to kneel and invite me. Otherwise, I will never go to the Zhou Family! Even if I am indebted to the ancestors of the Zhou Family, that kindness cannot be the reason why I am humiliated by the Zhou Family! "
"The Zhou Family knows the specific situation of the Zhou Family the best!" Yang Li said calmly.
When the person saw that Yang Li's expression did not change at all, he knew that Yang Li had made up his mind. His face turned gloomy, and after cupping his hands to show that he understood, he disappeared on the spot.
Yang Li then continued to walk into the city. He planned to find an inn to cultivate and rest for a while. He wanted to see if there was anything noteworthy in the central region recently.
After Yang Li found an inn, a cultivator in the Zhou Family's Taoist robe left the inn quickly and flew toward the Zhou Mansion. He must have wanted to tell the people in the family where Yang Li went.
Yang Li did not mind. After getting a room, he sat downstairs for a while. When he found that nothing major had happened, he returned to his room and began to cultivate.
The Zhou Clan, on the other hand, was in an uproar with Yang Li's return. Everyone once again gathered in the assembly hall. The first seat was still Zhou Chi, while Zhou Tian Ji took a seat at the end of the hall.
Because the search for Yang Li was under Zhou Tianji's responsibility, after finding Yang Li, Zhou Tianji was the first to report it. When Zhou Tianji got the news that Yang Li was staying in the inn and Yang Li's request, he was put in a difficult position.
In the end, he had no choice but to inform Zhou Chi, intending to let him decide. Who would have thought that Zhou Chi would summon everyone in the family! This gave Zhou Tianji a headache.
After everyone was present, Zhou Chi looked at Zhou Tianji, who was trying his best to lower his head and hide his existence. He said calmly, "Tianji, tell them the news you received."
Zhou Tianji sighed in his heart. This way, no matter what, he would have to offend Zhou Lingyi. However, compared to Zhou Lingyi, Yang Li was obviously more valuable!
Thinking of this, Zhou Tianji raised his head and said in a low voice, "According to the few disciples of the Zhou Family stationed at the city gates, Yang Li is now in our city. He also knows that the Zhou Family is looking for him, but he has a request."
As soon as Zhou Tianji finished speaking, before he could say anything, the entire Zhou Family meeting hall exploded. Everyone was dissatisfied with Yang Li.
"What? He has a request?! "
"The Zhou Family wants to see him, and he has a request?! Do you know how many people want to see the Zhou Family but can't?! "
"That's right, he's just a person from the Waning Domain. How dare he make a request of the Zhou Family?!"
Zhou Tianji looked mockingly at the people who were full of dissatisfaction, but he did not say anything. He knew that this was not the time for him to speak.
As expected, when Zhou Chi heard everyone's dissatisfaction, his eyes gradually darkened. He suddenly shouted, "All of you, shut up!"
The meeting hall immediately quietened down. The Zhou Family looked at each other. They could clearly hear Zhou Chi's anger and did not dare to say anything. However, they did not understand why Zhou Chi was so angry.
Zhou Chi's face darkened. "It's only been five months, and you've completely forgotten what I said! You're really a good son of the Zhou Family! "
"As early as five months ago! I told you that the Zhou Family will face a huge crisis in ten years! And this crisis can only be resolved by Yang Li! If we can't overcome this crisis! The entire Zhou Family will be destroyed! "
"In ten years, I, Zhou Chi, may not be around anymore. But all of you here! How many of you will die in ten years?! "
"So what if Yang Li has a request? I can tell you this, if it really comes to a life and death crisis, let alone one request, I'm afraid that even if it's ten requests, you'll still agree to them! "
Zhou Chi angrily reprimanded the people in the meeting hall. Only then did everyone remember Ali. Five months ago, Zhou Chi had indeed told them about the importance of Yang Li. It was just that they had not taken it to heart at that time. The few people who remembered this matter had remained silent during the discussion just now.
They had also expected this outcome. Although they did not believe that Yang Li had such great power, it was clear that this matter was not within their control.
"Tianji, continue." After Zhou Chi finished reprimanding the crowd, he calmed down and looked at Zhou Tianji as he spoke.
Zhou Tianji swept his gaze across everyone in the meeting hall. The corner of his mouth curved into a sarcastic smile as he said, "I believe that all of you look down on Yang Li. In order to let all of you accept this matter calmly, I'll tell you another piece of news in advance."
"According to my understanding, Yang Li only started cultivating at the age of fifteen. Let's not talk about his cultivation before that. Let's talk about his cultivation after the Harmonious God Realm."
"Let me ask everyone in the meeting hall, have any of you seen someone who comprehended a law at the seventh level of the Harmonious God Realm?! Moreover, it's the highest law — the Law of Space! "
"Perhaps this is nothing in front of the elders, but have you ever seen anyone break through from Half Law Realm Level 1 to Half Law Realm Level 7 in five months?!"
"Breaking through six levels in five months! Even with the help of heavenly treasures! Have any of you seen it?! "
Zhou Tianji's voice was somewhat intense. He could only rely on this method to arouse the attention of these short-sighted elders towards Yang Li. Otherwise, if Yang Li came to the Zhou Family and Yang Li left again because of them, it would be difficult for the Zhou Family to invite Yang Li again!
Zhou Tianji's intense voice also set off an uproar in everyone's hearts. They all knew that the geniuses who came out of the Heaven Secret Realm all obtained thirty Heaven Dao Fruits. However, according to what they knew, the three people who improved the most only advanced by a little more than three levels.
Lin Langtian, Su Wanqing, and Qiu Hong all advanced to the second level of the Dharma Realm with the help of the Heaven Dao Fruits. Among them, Su Wanqing was the most advanced. She was only one step away from the third level. Qiu Hong and Lin Langtian were slightly inferior, both at the second level of the Dharma Realm.
Zhou Tianji advanced to the early second level of the Dharma Realm. His talent wasn't weak, but compared to the others, he was much inferior.
Yang Li, on the other hand, had forcibly risen by six realms! Moreover, he advanced by six levels in the most difficult Law of Space! Even though his cultivation was lower than the others, six levels was enough to prove how outstanding Yang Li's talent was!
When Zhou Tianji saw everyone fall silent and their eyes filled with shock, he felt slightly relieved. At least he planted a seed in everyone's hearts so that they wouldn't look down on Yang Li too much.
Then, he said in a deep voice, "Yang Li's request has nothing to do with the other members of the Zhou Family. The only one who is related is Zhou Lingyi's uncle. This request was already mentioned when Yang Li left."
