Lee Yong Showdown

“It seems you understand now. At least you won’t die in vain.”

Before Li Zhi could respond, Li Nianhua took a large stride forward, his right hand stirring a wisp of strong wind, which he casually waved out.

That seemingly insignificant wisp of strong wind underwent a drastic change in appearance in the air!

Piercing tearing sounds accompanied terrifying sonic booms! It was also like the wails of ghosts and wolves!

As the strong wind whistled, its scale grew larger and larger! A heart-palpitating Aura swept out!

“As my son, even if Li Zhi dies, he must have a considerate way of dying!”

“Watch this move carefully!”

The furious wind roared, its momentum like startling thunder, leaves, dust, and sand were all swept into a soul-stirring tornado!

“Wind Sweeps the Remaining Clouds, Dominating and Mighty!”

The wind was fierce, and its roaring sound permeated heaven and earth!

If this attack were to land, there would be no doubt that the entire Li Family graveyard would be instantly swept flat.

Within a radius of several thousand meters, no life would remain, and it would even vaguely sweep to the edge of the Li Family.

Li Nianhua seemed to feel something amiss, so he moved his finger slightly, and two gusts of strong wind instantly flew out of the tornado, piercing through Li Zhi’s body!

There was no splattering blood as imagined, nor was there a separation of head and body as imagined.

Only the internal organs were pulverized, while the body remained intact, a truly miraculous method.

Watching his father die before his eyes, Li Tan’s heart was very complex. Regardless of whether Li Zhi viewed him as a chess piece, it was true that he had been kind to Li Tan.

If it weren't for Li Zhi's Corpse Refining Method, how could he have embarked on the immortal Dao and found that sliver of Opportunity?

However, Li Tan immediately sighed bitterly in his heart and gave up on any extra thoughts.

“What’s there to discuss about a dying person? I’m just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.”

Li Tan lay there quietly, appearing very calm.

He accepted his failure, no matter how unwilling or resentful he was.

“Once dead, naturally nothing remains. Who in this world cannot die….”

Two gusts of strong wind whistled towards him!

His body had reached its limit; he had no strength to dodge anymore, so he might as well accept his death openly.

In his mind, an idea seemed to be mocking him, mocking how small and pathetic he was.

It certainly echoed that saying….

“He who insults others will be insulted; he who kills others will be killed.”

......

“Crack!”

With a crisp sound, Li Tan opened his eyes in confusion. He first checked his body and found that it was not a so-called final burst of energy.

That crisp sound, he even thought it was the sound of his neck breaking, and he had already prepared himself for death.

Looking forward, a familiar figure was reflected in front of him!

“This person is Li Yong!”

He was as usual, with his characteristic smile on his face, looking calm and composed.

It seemed he had already anticipated the scene before him, and a Medicinal Pill, under his precise spiritual control, flew directly into Li Tan’s mouth.

“Hua Laogui, that’s enough!”

Li Yong’s expressionless face and unfathomable personality gave people a strong sense of oppression.

In contrast, Li Nianhua’s face was ashen, as if he had eaten a rotten fly, and he actually started to laugh out of extreme anger.

“Li Yong, it seems you’ve been watching for a long time.”

“Family shame should not be aired. Today, this old man has indeed lost face.”

Li Yong did not respond to Li Nianhua immediately; instead, he turned to check Li Tan’s injuries.

His legs had already been severed by sharp rocks, and even his pelvis had been somewhat flattened. The flesh on his toes was gone, leaving only bones of varying lengths.

Li Nianhua’s kick had sent Li Tan crashing heavily into the pile of rocks. That time, he was not as lucky as usual; a sharp rock column had pierced his eyeball.

Even his liver had suffered considerable damage as a result. The Cultivator’s powerful Physique would not cause him to die immediately, but if he did not receive timely treatment, he would definitely suffer from lingering ailments!

“His eyes are broken, and his legs are fractured. Young one, you’ve suffered.”

Li Yong looked at Li Tan with a pained expression, circulating an unknown healing technique to continuously alleviate his injuries.

After a long while, he finally stood up and spoke leisurely to Li Nianhua in the air:

“Hua Laogui, I, this old man, don’t want to meddle in your private affairs, but you cannot touch this young one.”

His calm words were full of dominance and arrogance, and his composed expression further highlighted his extraordinary nature!

“Words spoken, traverse all!”

With Li Yong’s soft cry, this place instantly transformed into a chessboard battlefield!

The black pieces and Li Nianhua seemed to have established an indescribable bond, while the white pieces turned into phantoms, circling around Li Yong.

Looking up at the entire vast chessboard, the white pieces had formed a pincer movement, as if they could wipe out the enemy in the next second!

Facing Li Yong, who was determined to protect his protégé, Li Nianhua heavily exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi, feeling helpless yet still unwilling to give up easily.

He waved his hand as if reminding Li Yong to stop fighting, then earnestly advised:

“We are all players in this game; every step we take must be carefully considered. If this move is wrong, there will be no turning back. He is already about to touch the threshold.”

Li Yong below hesitated for a moment, then hurriedly pulled Li Tan and left.

“There are always chess pieces that need to break the deadlock; danger often comes with Opportunity.”

“If one hesitates and avoids battle, one will eventually lose.”

Li Nianhua in the sky only pondered for a moment before turning around and leaving.

“If we get injured, Li Yanfei might take advantage of the situation….”

.........

Soon after, Li Tan was brought back to that familiar small courtyard by Li Yong. Everything was so similar, yet everything was so false.

He endured the severe pain in his body, hurriedly stood up, and cupped his right hand to express his gratitude to Li Yong.

“Senior, this Junior will forever remember your life-saving grace.”

Li Yong, however, lay casually on the chair, as if he hadn’t heard, and spoke to himself:

“You are still my grandson, Li Yong, just with a different name.”

“If you have a grateful heart, then when your cultivation reaches fruition, come back to the Li Family to help this old man.”

Li Tan’s mind was in turmoil, and various confusions deeply troubled him, so he decided to voice the doubts in his heart.

“Senior, why are you so certain that I will return to the Li Family in the future?”

“Could it be that Senior believes this Junior is a magnanimous, kind, and loving person?”

As Li Tan finished speaking, Li Yong, who was lying on the chair, burst into laughter, as if he had heard something incredibly amusing.

After laughing for a while, his expression finally softened slightly, and he spoke leisurely:

“Young one, the Dragon Roar Pill is such a precious item, even Hua Laogui would be envious. How could it be given to you so easily?”

Before these words even fell, Li Tan’s pupils trembled violently like an earthquake! His heart was even stirring up tumultuous waves!

“You are the first person I’ve invested so heavily in. The value of the Dragon Roar Pill even exceeds some top-grade second-tier Medicinal Pills!”

“Dragon blood, what a coveted Opportunity!”

Then he saw Li Tan’s slightly trembling body, whether from fear, or confusion and bewilderment.

Li Yong laughed heartily again, casually waved his hand to send a message, and ordered his servants to bring some tea and pastries.

“Good grandson, don’t be afraid. The tricks this old man played were just a few Heart Demons.”

“Below the Golden Core Realm, there is no so-called Heart Demon tribulation. If you have the ambition to pursue a higher Realm, then come to the Li Family to find me.”
