Xiaoruan, in the posture of the Great Demon King, won decisively.
In the subsequent matches, Li Cunxu continued to train his pet beasts. Xiaoruan shone as the finale. Whenever it was Xiaoruan’s turn to take the stage, no one was a match, sweeping all before him.
Students from other schools also had gold-level pet beasts, but all were low-grade gold, far inferior to Xiaoruan and were simply not competitors.
Soone sighed, "That’s so unfair. I fear even our strongest senior from the previous year might not be able to defeat this Sli."
Soone chid in with understanding, "Indeed."
"Worthy of Shendu University, the top university."
...
As the exchange eting neared its end, Li Cunxu noticed a subscription to the Tongdu Daily showing several extermination massacres. The mayor was furious, demanding a thorough investigation.
Each cri scene invariably left a demonic-looking Black Lotus Mark.
The Black Lotus Mark looked just like the Saint Lotus Mark of the Li Family, except for the color, there was no difference.
Therefore, public opinion directly pointed at the Saint Lotus Li Family.
Suspicions arose that the culprit of the massacre ca from the Saint Lotus Li Family.
The uproar was overwhelming and stord like a tidal wave, as if overnight, the Saint Lotus Li Family beca so heinous family. Li Cunxu suspected that such a perilous public opinion must have had contributions from the nine other families besides the Saint Lotus Li Family in Tongdu, fanning the flas.
In recent years, the Saint Lotus Li Family had developed aggressively, showing signs of challenging the top family, which other families could not tolerate as no one wanted to be suppressed.
So, if they could hold them back a little, they naturally would.
"Isn’t the black Black Lotus Mark the Demonic Lotus Mark? Looks like Grandpa has resurrected."
Li Cunxu breathed a sigh of relief.
Thud, thud~
There was a knock at the door.
Li Cunxu opened the door. The person knocking was dressed in a black jacket, with the hood pulled over their head and a mask on their face, obscuring their true appearance.
"Who are you?"
The mysterious person said in a low voice, "I am a subordinate of Master Shi Ji."
Grandpa’s subordinate?
Li Cunxu said softly, "How can you prove it?"
The mysterious person’s eyes lit up, shimring with a golden glow, and the black pupils turned into a flowing Holy Lotus.
"Anything else? This only proves you’re from the Holy Lotus Family, not that you’re Grandpa’s subordinate."
The mysterious person took out a token with the character ’Ji’ written on it from his pocket.
Li Cunxu was skeptical, as he had never interacted with Li Shiji’s subordinates, so how could he verify?
"What do you need with ?"
"Young Master Cunxu, sothing big has happened. Your sister, Li Anle, was kidnapped last night. The kidnappers said that to exchange for Miss Li Anle’s life, only you can make the exchange."
Kidnapped last night? I contacted Li Anle this morning, and she was safe and sound.
Another trick to coax out of Shendu University.
How many tis has it been? Li Cunxu couldn’t quite rember.
The last ti, just yesterday, a conman posing as a survival show team contacted Li Cunxu, saying the transfer of Bengma Island was missing a step and he needed to go to the show’s headquarters to finalize it quickly, or the rights to Bengma Island would revert back to the show.
If Li Cunxu didn’t understand property law, he might have been fooled, taken advantage of his youth. But Li Cunxu really did understand, thanks to his experience buying houses and islands in gas from his previous life.
With the land deed in hand, what more contracts are needed.
In the Alliance Law, the property rights possessed by a land deed are greater than those of so-called contracts.
The ti before last, just the day before yesterday, another conman, pretending to be a passerby at Tongdu Ranch, contacted Li Cunxu, claiming that the chanical Annihilation Hunter and watch dog Ah Huang guarding the ranch gate were badly beaten and he should hurry back to check.
There was truth to pictures as well, showing a brutally damaged chanical Annihilation Hunter and a tooth-shattered, blood-spitting watch dog.
Though the pictures were incredibly realistic, Li Cunxu still didn’t believe them.
Because before leaving, Li Cunxu took the chanical Annihilation Hunter and the watch dog with him in a pet beast bag. He also took all the cattle and sheep at the ranch in pet beast bags.
Li Cunxu told the mysterious person, "You’re the first conman daring enough to co to my door. I admire you, you’re very brave. Taste my Burning Lotus Blood Fire."
Li Cunxu’s eyes turned into Blood Lotus, and Burning Lotus Blood Fire blazed in the mysterious person’s eyes.
"Ah!"
The mysterious person scread, clutching their eyes.
Then, like being pulled by so string, the mysterious person was yanked away with a whoosh, disappearing into the void.
In the void, the mysterious person let out an even more piercing scream.
"Void Fishing Rod," Li Cunxu murmured in his heart.
He recognized that the thod by which the mysterious person was dragged away was the work of the Void Fishing Rod.
The Void Fishing Rod can fish things away from a distance.
In his past life, a cunning player often used the Void Fishing Rod to snatch items dropped from bosses defeated by others, much to everyone’s annoyance. Once, that cunning player targeted Li Cunxu’s loot and fished it away.
This BOSS was sothing Li Cunxu had ticulously prepared to defeat over fifty days, and the loot it dropped was fished away, driving Li Cunxu to exact revenge for a hundred days.
Using a curse to mark the cunning player’s location, he continuously poisoned and killed him.
Killing players could result in items dropping from their backpacks. Li Cunxu killed the player hundreds of tis until the Void Fishing Rod was dropped, and only then did he stop.
Thus, Li Cunxu is particularly familiar with the Void Fishing Rod.
"The mastermind behind this is ruthless indeed! Even resorting to silencing witnesses."
Being fished into the void, the body would pass through it.
What is the void? An extrely dangerous place. Even monarch-level beings must tread carefully.
The mysterious person, who hadn’t even reached the lord-level, would be torn into many pieces passing through the void.
Li Cunxu noticed sothing seed to have fallen from the mysterious person. Looking down, he saw it was two contact lenses being burned by Burning Lotus Blood Fire.
Li Cunxu only wanted to teach the mysterious person a lesson, not take their life. So, he deliberately controlled the temperature of the Burning Lotus Blood Fire so that it would only burn the eyes without causing blindness.
The result... well, two contact lenses got burned off.
Li Cunxu squatted down, extinguished the not-so-hot Burning Lotus Blood Fire from the contact lenses with his hand, and picked them up.
Spiritual Power penetrated the contact lenses, and a slightly flawed Holy Lotus appeared.
"Contact lenses that can disguise the Holy Lotus Eye talent. Just now, he showed the Holy Lotus Eye with this disguise, but he isn’t even from the Saint Lotus Li Family."
Li Cunxu turned and went back inside, quickly forgetting about the small incident.
Li Shiji’s enemies were quite persistent, always trying to lure Li Cunxu out to eliminate him.
But soon, those enemies wouldn’t think that way.
Once they learned that Li Shiji could infinitely resurrect, their mindset would change. So might even end up protecting Li Cunxu.
Li Shiji, immortal and undying, with high intelligence, great power, and potential. If without the constraint of familial bonds, without family concerns, he would be a terrifying and invulnerable enemy.
