Chapter 347: Chapter 347: Untouchable Inverse Scales
Li Xiaoyao’s words sent a shock through the hearts of the cultivators present.
The Li Family, one of the Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country, was at the very top whether in politics, the business world, or the quantity and strength of its cultivators.
Countless people dread of joining the Li Family one day, seeking their protection.
And now, Li Xiaoyao was saying that the Li Family, in his eyes, was nothing special.
Although his words were arrogant, no one dared to accuse him of bragging.
Li Xiaoyao had just proven himself with his actions.
He did not need to cling to a powerful clan deliberately.
“Give ti, and I can surpass the Li Family,” Li Xiaoyao spoke coldly and confidently, stirring the passions of many cultivators.
If one day they could speak to the Li Family, one of the Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country, with such indifference, their deaths would be worth it.
Li Yiming’s expression darkened slightly as he said, “Li Xiaoyao, you killed Xie Min, the fifth of the Xie Family. The Xie Family will surely not let this go. Your only way out now is to return with to the Li Family. If it’s confird that you are one of the Li Family, the Xie Family wouldn’t dare touch you.”
“The Xie Family, not even counted as one of the Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country, how could they make fearful?” Li Xiaoyao’s body shook, shedding all dust from his clothes, “I’ve said before, your Li Family is not worthy for to court. Today, that person colluded with one from your Li Family to kill , and t such a fate, it’s a consequence of their own doing. If the Xie Family really wants to trouble , let them co, I, Li Xiaoyao, will accept the challenge!”
Having said this, Li Xiaoyao started walking towards the entrance.
The cultivators made way for him, opening up a path, but Li Yiming stood still, not moving an inch.
Li Xiaoyao looked at him, asking, “Do you intend to block my way?”
“Co back with to the Li Family, or else, I will drag you back!” Li Yiming said with a stern voice.
“By yourself?” Li Xiaoyao laughed coldly. He saw that Li Yiming’s cultivation level was about the sa as that of the recently killed Xie Min. If it ca to a fight, Li Xiaoyao was confident that he could kill him within ten moves.
However, Li Xiaoyao would not kill him. The conversation between Xie Min and Li Tu had disturbed him slightly.
A mber of the Li Family?
Regardless if he was a mber of the Li Family or not, as long as Li Yiming did not provoke him, he would spare his life.
“On my authority!” Li Yiming’s eyes flickered with the light of thunder, reaching out to grasp Li Xiaoyao’s shoulder.
“Hmph!” With a light snort, Li Xiaoyao struck back with his fist towards Li Yiming’s hand.
Upon the clash of fist and palm, Li Yiming’s figure wavered slightly, while Li Xiaoyao took several steps back.
“Eh, such great physical strength?” Li Yiming’s eyes lit up, looking at Li Xiaoyao with fervor, as if he had seen a treasure.
If Li Xiaoyao truly was a mber of the Li Family, with his current age, reaching such a level of cultivation, his future achievents were bound to be extraordinary.
Even if Li Xiaoyao wasn’t from the Li Family, Li Yiming felt the thrill of stumbling upon a treasure.
If he could bring him into the Li Family, it would be beneficial for them without any downside.
Li Xiaoyao, slightly surprised, gazed at Li Yiming, thinking to himself that this old fellow had concealed his cultivation level.
Li Xiaoyao knew all too well the extent of his own physical prowess; perhaps even a cultivator at the peak of the Golden Core Realm couldn’t compete with him in a contest of physical cultivation. Yet here was Li Yiming, gaining the upper hand in a direct confrontation.
“Kid, co back with . I assure you, whether or not you are from the Li Family, no one will dare harm a hair on your head for killing Xie Min today,” Li Yiming said. Hearing this, the cultivators knew that Li Yiming had taken a keen interest in his talent.
Thinking about it, they understood. With such strength at a young age, if word of Li Xiaoyao’s talent spread, even the Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country would vie to snatch him up.
“Hmph!” Li Xiaoyao’s figure flickered, transforming into a shadowy apparition, and he escaped from under Li Yiming’s watchful eyes.
Even with Li Yiming’s cultivation level, he failed to stop him in ti.
Watching Li Xiaoyao disappear in the blink of an eye, Li Yiming suddenly laughed.
“This kid, is quite interesting.”
Li Tu cautiously asked from the side, “Third Elder, shall we chase after him?”
Li Yiming shook his head and said, “No need to chase, let him go. You return to the clan with imdiately. Everyone else stays here to guard the ancient tomb.” He paused, then swept his gaze across the faces of the many cultivators in the tomb chamber. “If anyone outside of the Li Family dares to enter the ancient tomb, show no rcy!”
Hearing this, the cultivators trembled slightly, almost imdiately starting to flee outward.
Previously outside, Li Yiming had rely repelled them without harming their lives.
But they knew that it was because they had not yet crossed Li Yiming’s bottom line. Now, by saying these words, Li Yiming was also telling them where his bottom line stood.
The cultivators were not fools; now that the ancient tomb no longer held any treasures, and Li Xiaoyao had beco so powerful as to drive them to despair, staying would be pointless.
Why continue to antagonize the Li Family then?
Leaving the ancient tomb, Li Yiming and Li Tu quickly departed.
On the other side, after fleeing from the ancient tomb, Li Xiaoyao ran for several miles before taking to the sky with his flying sword, heading toward Ling City.
It was more than ten days of travel, and Li Xiaoyao had nearly lost contact with the outside world.
His phone had long since run out of battery – those girls were probably anxious.
Back at ho, Li Xiaoyao charged his phone and turned it on, and a string of missed calls and unread texts popped up on the screen.
Casually flipping through the ssages, most were inquiries from the girls. Li Xiaoyao scrolled further and found that there were also a few ssages from Xia Zijiu.
Opening Xia Zijiu’s texts, a line of words appeared, and a fla of anger instantly built up on Li Xiaoyao’s calm face.
“Boss, your wife has been kidnapped!”
“Boss, are you there? See this ssage and reply to quickly.”
Besides that, there were several ssages from Zhao Ge.
“Xiaoyao, sothing’s wrong. All of San Tiao Alley’s territories have been sealed off; all the brothers have been apprehended. I’ve fled to another province, and even my wife and kids have been captured.”
“I’ve heard that Zhang ng and Zhu Xiaoyue have both been detained.”
Li Xiaoyao grabbed the phone to return Xia Zijiu’s call, but the phone was switched off, causing even more irritation and anger to surge within him.
He continued to try calling Zhao Ge, but it was also switched off. Li Xiaoyao grabbed his phone, nearly smashing it to the ground in frustration!
“Damn it!”
Li Xiaoyao took out a cigarette, lit one, and quickly finished it in a few drags, then proceeded to chain-smoke one after another.
Nie Xiaoqian erged from the ancient jade, saw his unprecedentedly angry expression, and asked with concern, “Young Master, what happened?”
Just then, the phone on the table began to vibrate; a strange number was calling.
Li Xiaoyao stared at the phone for a mont, it was a number from another province.
