Chapter 1325: Chapter 1319: Utmost Sincerity and Passion
If the Immortal is awakened, they will take out their wrath on those involved, leading to a dire situation of life and death.
“But if that happens, won’t we be putting ourselves in great danger?”
“Exactly. If we accidentally wake the Immortal, we might suffer as well!”
Although Bai Kejin’s plan was feasible, it carried substantial risks, causing many to hesitate.
Zhou Yongyi, however, let out a cold laugh and remarked, “If we can’t even handle this level of risk, how can we hope to uncover Li Changlin’s secrets? Let remind everyone—Li Changlin has both the Holy Fruit and the Grass Revival Pill, which enhance one’s strength!”
“That’s right! A single Holy Fruit increases strength by a hundred pounds, and a Grass Revival Pill boosts it by five hundred pounds! We absolutely must get our hands on those!”
“It was thanks to these items that Li Changlin beca the most powerful person in the mortal realm!”
“But… won’t that so-called Taiji Sect co looking for trouble with us?”
The crowd was abuzz with discussion. Zhou Yongyi’s reminder stoked their greed, even prompting Bai Kejin to unconsciously lick his lips.
Back when Li Changlin acted, he easily executed a strong cultivator in the Initial Stage of Gangjin. That ruthless display had intimidated Bai Kejin and partly explained his earlier hesitance.
Still, many knew Li Changlin hailed from a mysterious sect, making them sowhat apprehensive.
Zhou Yongyi sneered coldly, saying, “The Taiji Sect? It’s impossible for them to exist. That’s just a lie Li Changlin fabricated to intimidate us.”
“But weren’t Li Changlin’s guards said to be outer disciples of the Taiji Sect?” soone questioned uncertainly.
Zhou Yongyi explained, “I’ve investigated this thoroughly. Those so-called outer disciples were actually mbers of a group in Jincheng, Nanfu Province, called the Sanjiang Gang. Li Changlin subdued them by force and made them his lackeys. Outer disciples of the Taiji Sect? Utter nonsense!”
“In that case, let’s put it to a vote. Those in favor of targeting Li Changlin, raise your hand. If you’re against it, leave imdiately!”
In the end, Bai Kejin finalized the decision, leaving no room for dissent among the crowd.
Thus, over a hundred Ancient Martial Families swore an alliance in blood and ca to an agreent.
Unaware of all this, Li Changlin spent his days in the hospital by Ye Xiyao’s side. Even during the New Year, he only visited the Li Family for an hour before rushing back.
Although Ye Xiyao repeatedly urged Li Changlin to spend ti with his parents, he knew her ti was running out. The only thing he could do was stay with her and ensure she had no regrets when her ti ca.
Still, watching Xiyao’s body grow thinner each day left Li Changlin in deep pain.
On the twentieth day, Ye Xiyao’s complexion finally improved, and her condition began to stabilize.
Yet, there wasn’t an ounce of joy in Li Changlin’s heart.
The better she seed, the clearer it beca that her ti was nearing its end.
In the end, Ye Xiyao insisted on being discharged, and Li Changlin, having no other choice, reluctantly agreed.
Upon returning ho, Li Changlin learned that during this ti, Qian Ziwei had spent her days experinting with recipes in the kitchen—perhaps affected by Ye Xiyao’s illness.
But right now, Li Changlin couldn’t concern himself with such matters. The only thing on his mind was to be by Ye Xiyao’s side and accompany her through her final days.
At this mont, Ye Xiyao made a request: she wanted to share a room with Li Changlin. This was her heart’s final wish, and she hoped Brother Changlin wouldn’t deny her.
What could Li Changlin possibly say? With such love from this beautiful woman, he could only agree, tears streaming down his face.
When Li Changlin consented, Ye Xiyao laughed joyfully like a little girl, as if she had won the greatest prize in the world.
This only made Li Changlin feel even worse. Helpless and unsure what he could do, he suffered in silence.
Unfortunately, the energy of the Moonlight Treasure Box had only reached one-third of its capacity—not enough even for a journey to Earth, let alone a return trip.
Truth be told, if the energy had reached halfway, Li Changlin might have thrown caution to the wind and gambled it all.
However, he had spent so much ti accumulating Popularity Points recently that he neglected the energy reserves. Only by holding several free events later had he managed to scrape together so Power of Faith.
But ti was too short, and not all the albums had been released yet. As a result, the energy collected by the Moonlight Treasure Box was minimal.
Given the situation, Li Changlin had no choice.
He gently held Ye Xiyao, wishing ti could stop forever at this mont.
That way, nothing would happen to Xiyao!
But ti could never be stopped.
As for the fate and mysteries of life—they truly are unpredictable.
Just shortly after agreeing to Ye Xiyao’s request to share a room, Chen Mingjiang arrived, reporting that soone had co to visit.
Li Changlin was taken aback. He initially had no intention of seeing them, but Chen Mingjiang added that the visitor was Bai Kejin, claiming to discuss Ye Xiyao’s illness.
If it had been about anything else, Li Changlin wouldn’t have cared—Bai Kejin or not. After all, he had already eliminated seven of the eight ssengers from the Upper Realm.
Only Bai Kejin had escaped that day due to his swiftness and his connection to Bai Zicong, which had stayed Li Changlin’s hand.
Since this concerned Xiyao, Li Changlin couldn’t refuse to et. Thus, he instructed Chen Mingjiang to invite Bai Kejin inside.
Bai Kejin ca alone, fully aware that no number of people would stand a chance against the combined strength of Li Changlin and Li Yuqi from the Li Family.
Once seated, Li Changlin got straight to the point: “Young Master Bai, you ntioned news regarding Xiyao’s illness. Please, do share. If you can truly cure her, I’m willing to return the Bai Family’s Divine Artifact in full.”
“Oh, I didn’t expect Young Master Changlin to be such a deeply emotional person.” Bai Kejin was slightly taken aback before considering sothing and saying, “Young Master Changlin, this matter is of great importance. Why not ask Young Master Yuqi to join us in discussion?”
Bai Kejin assud the Divine Artifact was no longer in Li Changlin’s possession.
Li Changlin replied indifferently, “Li Yuqi is long dead by my hand.”
There was no need to conceal this. Whether it was one or seven, he had already killed them, and he wasn’t concerned about Bai Kejin learning of his deeds.
Hearing this confession, Bai Kejin was stunned and asked in shock, “Young Master Changlin, wasn’t Li Yuqi part of your Li Family? Why would you kill him?”
“Li Yuqi, like you all, sought to seize the Divine Artifact. How could I let him succeed?” Li Changlin snorted coldly, unhesitant as he recounted the incident to Bai Kejin.
