340: A person’s greatest enemy…is himself!

Li Qi had always felt that a certain saying was very true.

A person's greatest enemy... is themselves!

Because one knows oneself best, one is clearest about one's own shortcomings, and if one can overcome these shortcomings, one can grow and become stronger.

The same logic can be applied to these Saint Demon Remnant Clan members.

Li Qi unexpectedly obtained the Demon Soul Sacred Heart Art, which is the Legacy technique of the Saint Demon Remnant Clan, the source of their power. To a certain extent, Li Qi, holding the Demon Soul Sacred Heart Art, and the Saint Demon Clan... are half their own people.

What would be the consequence of being targeted by one's own people?

It usually hits the vital point.

This is precisely the situation now.

The System is rapidly analyzing the characteristics of the Demon Soul Sacred Heart Art, attempting to find weaknesses within this Cultivation Technique... and then compiling a Cultivation Technique specifically targeting the Otherworldly Slave Saint Demon Remnant Clan.

What does it mean to be a 'schemer'?

This is it...

Because the Demon Soul Sacred Heart Art is of extremely high Rank, the consumption of Potential Points during the System's deduction is terrifying; one million Potential Points disappear every second!

But because Li Qi had already arranged for his two Clones to go out and sweep through dangerous lands, his Potential Points were rapidly increasing every moment.

In just over ten days... the Potential Points in Li Qi's hands had already reached an astonishing 900 million!

Even the major hurdle of 1 billion Potential Points was not far off.

This much potential was enough to sustain the System's deduction, otherwise Li Qi might truly not be able to afford it right now.

Li Qi sat quietly in the grotto beneath the Zhang family mansion, waiting patiently for the System's deduction to end.

Time slowly flowed by. After the time it takes for a few sticks of incense to burn, the System's deduction ended, and a brand new Cultivation Technique appeared before Li Qi's eyes.

[Deduction complete!]

[You have obtained the Cultivation Technique... Exorcising Demon Purifying World Records!]

This Exorcising Demon Purifying World Records was the Cultivation Technique deduced by the System. This was also a Harmony Realm Cultivation Technique, and the combat techniques within it perfectly targeted those Saint Demon Remnant Clan members.

Li Qi did not delay, immediately consuming Potential Points to strengthen and elevate this Harmony Realm Cultivation Technique to the Major Achievement realm!

Just like a cat eating a mouse, or a wolf eating a sheep, Li Qi, having Cultivated the Exorcising Demon Purifying World Records, seemed to have become the natural enemy of the Saint Demon Remnant Clan!

The last trace of apprehension Li Qi had towards the Saint Demon Remnant Clan... also disappeared.

How could there be a reason in this world for a cat to be afraid of a mouse?

If another Otherworldly Slave were to come knocking next time, Li Qi could completely go head-to-head with them.

"Not bad, not bad... this trip has been quite fruitful."

Li Qi slowly rose from the grotto floor, saying with satisfaction and a relaxed expression, "It's truly gratifying."

Coming to Brocade Embroidery Royal City this time to clear out the Otherworldly Slaves was the right decision. Not only did he gain a large number of Potential Points, but he also killed a Saint Demon Remnant Clan member... and even figured out the Saint Demon Remnant Clan's true background.

And he also obtained a method to restrain the Saint Demon Remnant Clan!

A great Opportunity!

"It's time to leave here."

Li Qi called out, and he and Sword Soul both flew out of the underground grotto, returning to the Zhang family mansion above...

...

After the initial commotion, the disturbance in the Zhang family also subsided.

After all the Otherworldly Slaves were killed, the bodies of some of the deceased were collected and placed together.

What was originally a joyous occasion for a wedding instantly turned into a funeral, with many dead and injured. Cries of sorrow echoed throughout the Zhang family.

Although the Zhang family quickly quelled the matter, the commotion here was too great, and the changes that occurred in the Zhang family were still spread. Many people in Brocade Embroidery Royal City knew that something had happened to the Zhang family.

Seeing Li Qi's figure fly out of the underground hole, the gazes of everyone in the Zhang family fell on Li Qi. An Elder dressed in brocade robes quickly came forward to greet him.

"Zhang Zongde of the Zhang family... greetings, Sir."

"Thank you, Sir, for taking action and saving my entire Zhang family."

Ever since Li Qi had entered the underground hole, Li Bixuan, who had married into the Zhang family, had already told the others in the Zhang family what had happened. Everyone also knew that many people in the Zhang family had already been harmed and replaced by monsters.

If Li Qi had not arrived in time, who knows how many more people would have suffered. It was Li Qi who saved the entire Zhang family.

And after Li Qi displayed his strength, he was clearly a supreme expert of the Harmony Realm, which made everyone in the Zhang family even more awestruck.

Li Qi looked at the miserable Zhang family members before him and sighed slightly: "The Zhang family has suffered this calamity... I hope you all will restrain your grief."

At these words, everyone was sorrowful and found it difficult to speak for a moment.

Several of the Zhang family's World King Realm experts were no longer present, and many other experts had died or been injured, causing significant damage. It was now hard to say whether the Zhang family could even retain its title as a Royal Clan.

Zhang Zongde, as the Seventh Elder of the Zhang family, sighed and said: "The Zhang family is now finding it difficult to suppress the dangerous lands... in the future, the Zhang family of Brocade Embroidery Royal City will cease to exist."

This was the Zhang family's predicament. All the Zhang family members were very sad, but Li Qi shook his head and chuckled softly.

"That's not entirely true."

"It's not impossible for the Zhang family to return to the position of a Royal Clan..."

At these words, Zhang Zongde was pleasantly surprised. He quickly asked.

"This old man is foolish, please enlighten me, Sir... could you please elaborate?!"

Li Qi stood tall and proud: "Where is the dangerous land under the Zhang family's jurisdiction?"

"Just take me there."
