Chapter 453: Depressed Li Guanxin
Fang Lin dismissed the comnt, unconcerned with Li Zhendong’s threat. Pointing at Li Guanxin on the ground, he said, “You should worry about him instead. If this continues, this guy is going to die.”
Indeed, Li Guanxin’s condition was grim. The longer it dragged on, as Fang Lin pointed out, the more dangerous it was for Li Guanxin.
Li Zhendong’s face was ashen, and his eyes filled with anxiety. Although Li Guanxin was not his own son, he was nevertheless the legitimate successor of his line and the most talented scion of the Li Family, destined to assu leadership.
No matter what, Li Zhendong could not just stand by and watch Li Guanxin perish here. Such a loss would be unbearable for the Li Family.
Common scions of the Li Family, if they died, they died, more could be nurtured from the younger generation with so resources.
But Li Guanxin was irreplaceable. Who knew how many years later the Li Family would give birth to another genius like him?
Even it could be said that if Li Guanxin died, it would directly affect the future luck of the Li Family.
Wasting such a talent, it was likely that the ancestor of the Li Family would be mad enough to rise from his grave.
Though Li Zhendong felt great reluctance, he made the wisest choice at this critical mont.
“I will release your parents. Give the antidote now,” Li Zhendong said with a distorted face. No one could imagine the frustration and anger in his heart as he uttered those words.
Fang Lin responded with a cold smile, “What I want is not your flippant promise. I want you to send my parents to the Purple Mist Sect.”
Li Zhendong was boiling with rage, yearning to strike Fang Lin every mont.
He roared, “When I, Li Zhendong, say sothing, I an it. Give the antidote now!”
Fang Lin shook his head and replied, “I can limit the toxicity in his body, but you must send my parents to the Purple Mist Sect within half a day, ensuring their safety.”
Li Zhendong didn’t hesitate and gave a reluctant nod. He didn’t have ti to dawdle over those things. He took out the Jade Slip right away and notified the people at the Ancestral Ho of Li Family to safely send Fang Lin’s parents to the Purple Mist Sect.
Han Luoyun also took out the Jade Slip, contacted people from the Purple Mist Sect, and asked them to et Fang Lin’s parents.
After making contact, Han Luoyun assured Fang Lin, “Elder Hu personally set off to greet your parents. It is impossible for the Li Family to stain their hands.”
Hearing these words, Fang Lin was deeply grateful and felt relieved.
Though he didn’t have much affection for his parents in this life, since his soul only awakened a few years ago,
Fang Lin, still occupying this body, saved his parents in this life – a kind of compensation for the original host.
“Your parents have been sent to the Purple Mist Sect, can you administer treatnt now?” Li Zhendong urged impatiently.
Watching Li Guanxin’s condition deteriorate, his body turning rigid and purplish, Li Zhendong was genuinely worried that Li Guanxin could die.
Fang Lin responded with a smile, “Head of the Li Family, step aside. I feel uneasy with you standing here, I might ss things up.”
Li Zhendong was fuming but had to listen to Fang Lin and step aside. However, he kept a close eye on Fang Lin, ready to strike him down regardless of any interference from Han Luoyun or Yang Jianye, should Fang Lin make any suspicious moves.
Fang Lin walked over to the nearly motionless Li Guanxin. Li Guanxin was still conscious, but half of the blood in his body had solidified, making him immobile.
Seeing Fang Lin looking down on him, Li Guanxin would rather die. He was the number one genius of the powerful Li Family and one of the top young prodigies of Qian Country. He had always looked down on others from high above. When did he beco so pathetic?
If he weren’t completely immobile, he would have the impulse to end his life.
“Are you unhappy? Do you want to knock out? Sadly, you can’t even move. Even if I throw you into a cesspit, you wouldn’t make a sound,” Fang Lin said, laughing.
Li Guanxin’s face turned sour, not only because of the poison but also due to Fang Lin’s provocation.
With a smirk on his face, Fang Lin pulled out a silver needle and inserted it into Li Guanxin’s right shoulder, under his skeptical gaze.
Li Zhendong quickly ca over, watching Fang Lin suspiciously, unsure whether Fang Lin was easing Li Guanxin’s poisoning or up to sothing else.
Fang Lin clapped his hands, casually saying, “Don’t worry. As long as this needle is not removed, he won’t die.”
Li Zhendong, suspicious of Fang Lin, directly went to check Li Guanxin’s condition.
True enough, the solidification of Li Guanxin’s blood slowed significantly. It could be seen that his life was no longer in imdiate danger.
Even the likes of Li Zhendong were sowhat shocked by Fang Lin’s mysterious technique; if he intended to harm soone, it would be indomitable.
“Looks like I’ll head to the Virtual Sky Sect a bit later. I’m not in a rush anyway, so it won’t matter if it’s a little delayed,” said Fang Lin.
Han Luoyun smiled and said, “No matter, there’s plenty of ti.”
“By the way, I’m not a reserve player anymore, am I?” Fang Lin suddenly chid in excitedly.
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback, then understood. Yeah, Fang Lin defeated Li Guanxin, and moreover, reduced Li Guanxin to this half-dead state. Li Guanxin definitely would not have the face to participate in the Tri-Country Championship now, so wouldn’t Fang Lin directly take Li Guanxin’s spot as the official choice?
Upon this realization, many people recalled Fang Lin’s earlier declaration. His intention from the beginning wasn’t a spur of the mont bravery; rather, he indeed planned to take Li Guanxin’s official place and followed through with it.
This posed an awkward predicant for the Li Family. They were supposed to be here because Li Guanxin was participating in the Tri-Country Championship. But now, Li Guanxin was no longer qualified, so what were they still doing here?
At this mont, mbers of the Li Family were all looking embarrassingly helpless, even so of the elders of the family had stern faces, wishing they could leave this place that brought such disgrace to the Li Family.
“Haha, young nephew Fang Lin has defeated Li Guanxin and naturally beca the official choice,” said Yang Jianye.
Hearing this, Fang Lin looked satisfied. But the immobilized Li Guanxin was so exasperated; he almost popped his eyes out.
Li Guanxin couldn’t accept his defeat. How could he have lost so badly? His Spirit Eye had not even been used to its full potential, and the treasured sword in his hand hadn’t even revealed its edge. He had been defeated so unexpectedly. It was an utter humiliation.
“It was an unfair victory. How could he be considered for the official choice?” Li Zhendong imdiately objected.
