19: When the news came out, the Li family was furious

But just then, a figure wreathed in lightning instantly appeared before him.

"No way? Weren't you chasing me all this time?" Li Niu exclaimed in shock.

He retreated explosively; under this destructive power, he dared not fight any longer.

He turned and ran.

He couldn't imagine how Ye Kong had done it. He had already run over a thousand meters; wasn't that kid still in his original spot?

Less than a second? And he was right in front of him.

"An ant, how would it know the vastness of the heavens and earth?" Ye Kong said indifferently.

Then, he suddenly raised his right hand.

In an instant, dark clouds rolled across the sky, and lightning flashed.

"Zzzzt."

The weather changed dramatically, and a massive Thunder Dragon emerged from the black clouds.

"Roar!" With an earth-shattering roar, the Thunder Dragon swooped down, carrying world-destroying power.

"No!" Li Niu shrieked.

Li Niu screamed in terror as he saw the enormous Thunder Dragon.

He had never witnessed such a terrifying attack.

He finally realized how naive his previous thoughts had been; this man, like a banished immortal, was absolutely not someone the Li family could provoke.

"Boom!"

Dust rose everywhere, and shattered rocks flew.

In an instant, Li Niu was completely engulfed by the Thunder Dragon. As the dust cleared, a massive crater appeared in his place.

"Oh!" A cry of surprise came.

In the large pit, Ye Kong saw a treasure.

His curiosity was immediately piqued.

One must know that Li Niu was a dignified Martial Master, yet in front of his Heavenly Tribulation lightning, not even a corpse remained.

Logically speaking, everything about him should have been destroyed.

But everything in the pit was still there.

This indicated that it was a supreme treasure.

Ye Kong didn't hesitate; his figure flickered, and he arrived in the massive pit.

In this large pit, there was a dark green mark, which looked like a huge seal.

Ye Kong took it, and just by its weight, he knew it was a treasure.

[Congratulations, Host, you have successfully obtained a damaged Low Grade Earth-Grade Seal. It can be upgraded once!]

Ye Kong heard the System's voice and rejoiced.

This was an Earth-Grade item.

No wonder it could withstand his lightning attack.

Putting these away, Ye Kong's eyes narrowed, and a hint of killing intent flashed within them.

"Since the Li family knows I was the one who killed him, and they still sent people to their deaths, then this is an irreconcilable feud."

In his eyes, the Li family must be eliminated.

Suppressing the killing intent in his heart, Ye Kong remembered the final assessment the next day.

He decided to spare the Li family for now and make a decision after the assessment.

"This is a broken Magic Treasure; I wonder how strong it is."

Ye Kong took out the seal, preparing to test it.

If it was truly useless, then there would be no need to upgrade it further.

Boom!

Terrifying lightning power surged into the broken seal.

Immediately, the seal emitted five different elemental lights.

"Rise!" Ye Kong roared.

Five rays of light converged above the seal, forming a massive mountain.

Ye Kong casually swiped his hand.

In an instant, the gigantic Five Elements energy mountain roared forth.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the entire ground was shattered, rocks flew, and a large pit with a diameter of over a hundred meters appeared before everyone.

"What terrifying power!" Ye Kong couldn't help but gasp at this sight.

However, he still had some regrets.

The seal was incomplete and couldn't unleash its true power.

Unfortunately, his Qi was exhausted.

Otherwise... he could have used it to mend the seal's flaws.

Perhaps, after strengthening, he could repair the seal's flaws and elevate it to the next level.

This was an Earth-Grade Magic Treasure.

Earth-Grade treasures were extremely rare.

Even Jinan might not have something like this.

Ye Kong sighed and turned to walk into his stone house.

Thinking back to how his Thunder Dragon's strike instantly killed him, he felt a little smug.

Only a few days had passed, and he had already grown so strong.

This was truly astonishing.

In front of his Thunder Dragon, Li Niu was utterly vulnerable.

He had no chance to retaliate and was instantly killed.

This time, Ye Kong was filled with anticipation for tomorrow's assessment.

Once he won the championship, he could go to a prestigious university and obtain more resources.

In Jinan, a Martial Master might be a powerful figure, but in Great Qin, in the Ten Nations, and among the Myriad Races, it was nothing.

Only by becoming a god could one achieve eternal life.

Only then could he have a place in this chaotic world... At this moment, Li Menghu had already returned to the Li family.

Li Menghu sat in the main hall, his expression solemn.

He was waiting for Li Niu to bring that kid back.

He wanted to personally torture Ye Kong, making him wish for death but unable to achieve it.

His son's death, he would make Ye Kong pay with his life.

In Li Menghu's view, with Li Niu's strength, capturing a newly Awakened youth would be too easy.

But just then, a slightly plump young man rushed in.

"What's wrong?" Li Menghu looked at the Li family member, his expression grave.

"Patriarch, Elder Li's spiritual energy Card has shattered. Elder Li has most likely perished and his Dao extinguished," Li Dali said, panting.

"What?" Li Menghu jumped up as if he had heard something incredible.

"Elder Li has fallen!" Li Dali repeated in a low voice.

Li Menghu was startled by this definitive answer.

"No way?" Soon... Li Menghu composed himself.

However, his body was filled with a murderous Qi, and a great fear emanated from within him.

He looked like a demon god.

"Something's wrong!" Li Menghu's face was very grim.

"That bastard Ye Kong, something's wrong!" Li Menghu mused.

He had originally thought, how powerful could a youth who had just recently Awakened be?

But he never expected that even a Martial Master had been killed.

But he had still underestimated Ye Kong.

"I was careless. This kid could kill my son; I should have realized earlier that his strength was extraordinary. Now even Li Niu has been slain by him. This little bastard is not to be trifled with."

Li Menghu's eyes were bloodshot, staring intently ahead. The armrest of the mahogany chair had already been crushed in his grip.

He suppressed the anger in his heart.

Li Menghu's heart stirred; he dared not underestimate Ye Kong.

To be able to kill a Martial Master-level expert without even having time to report it, this meant that this person's cultivation was at least that of a Martial Master.

Even the Li family didn't have many people with such power.

He had to fight Ye Kong.

He needed to think carefully.

"Child, don't worry. Your father will avenge you."

Li Menghu gritted his teeth, his gaze falling on his second son.
