Chapter 140: If It Wasn’t For That Lord, Your Li Family Wouldn’t Have Today’s Luck
The man in the sky looked at the Li family’s patriarch indifferently and said, “You’re wrong. I’ve never hurt him.”
“What?”
The Li family’s patriarch froze on the spot. He lowered his head to Li Li.
Li Li’s face was ashen. He trembled for a while before saying bitterly, “Patriarch, this matter is indeed my fault. It’s all my fault. I’ve let down the Li family. I’ve implicated the Li Family…”
After saying this, Li Li lowered his head in shame.
The Li family’s patriarch was extremely shocked when he heard Li Li’s words.
The cultivators couldn’t help but cry out in shock.
“Sacred Lord Brahma!”
“Hiss…”
“The Li family is in big trouble. The current Li family doesn’t have the ability to contend against the Brahma Holy Land at all.”
The expression of the Li family’s ancestor was extremely unsightly. He cautiously asked, “I didn’t know that Sacred Lord Brahma had arrived, so I didn’t come out to welcome him. I’ve really lost my manners…”
“However, can Sacred Lord inform Li Li of what he has done to anger Sacred Lord personally?”
“If it was Li Li who accidentally offended Sacred Lord, the Li family will definitely not protect Li Li. They will definitely punish him severely and compensate Sacred Lord.”
Lord Xinghe glanced at the Li family patriarch indifferently and said, “He offended another peerless expert. I’m only punishing the Li family on behalf of that Senior.”
That Senior?
The Li family’s patriarch was somewhat stunned. He looked around.
The cultivators also had puzzled expressions.
Even Sacred Lord Brahma had to respectfully address him as Senior. Who exactly was he?
The Li family patriarch probed:
“Then, Sacred Lord, can you tell me where that Senior lives? I’ll bring Li Li to pay him a visit and apologize.”
Sacred Lord Brahma scoffed.
“Hmph, you’re not worthy of seeing Senior. Does your Li family have the capital to apologize?”
As soon as Sacred Lord Brahma finished speaking, countless cultivators were in an uproar.
The Li family patriarch was dumbstruck.
He didn’t deserve to see Senior, and he didn’t have the capital to apologize.
These words were like thunder that exploded in the clear sky, making everyone tremble.
Which world-shaking figure was it? Even the late-stage Soul Formation realm Li family patriarch didn’t have the right to pay a visit to him, and even Sacred Lord Brahma, the Sacred Lord of the Holy Land, was willing to punish the Li family for him?
Sacred Lord Brahma looked at the reactions of the cultivators under his feet and felt it was a bit funny.
A group of people who had never seen the world.
What a mob.
Sacred Lord Brahma opened his mouth at the right time:
“Actually, there’s nothing wrong with telling you. I came to find trouble with you this time to apologize to that Senior. After all, it was my fault that Li Li b.u.mped into that Senior.”
The cultivators present were even more shocked.
Even Sacred Lord Brahma wanted to apologize to that Senior. Who exactly was that ‘Senior’?
Sacred Lord Brahma continued to explain:
“That Senior personally said that from now on, he doesn’t want to see the Li family’s existence in the Southern Region’s cultivation world.”
“Of course, I’m not a person who kills indiscriminately.”
“As long as the Li family listens to me play a song and disband on the spot, they can leave.”
When these words were said, everyone was extremely terrified.
They all sucked in a breath of cold air.
Their gazes were focused on the Li family’s patriarch.
It was a gaze of sympathy.
Disbanding on the spot meant that the Li family had no chance of making a comeback.
It looked like Sacred Lord Brahma wanted to cripple all the Li family’s cultivators and make them become mortals to repent for their mistakes.
For a large cultivation clan, this was worse than killing them.
Some smart people had already quietly retreated to avoid being implicated.
Cultivation wasn’t easy, and one had to cherish it.
“No, no!”
The Li family’s patriarch, whose mind was blank, heard Sacred Lord Brahma’s words. After thinking for a moment, he made an impulsive decision.
He soared into the sky and roared, “I can’t accept it. Why? Why can a person who hasn’t shown up decide the fate of the Li family with a single word?!”
The cultivators who were watching the show also expressed their understanding of the Li family’s patriarch’s actions.
The Li family was at the peak of its prosperity. Just as they were about to acc.u.mulate resources and become the strongest immortal cultivation clan in the Southern Territory, a Sacred Lord Brahma suddenly appeared and told them to disband the Li family on the spot.
No one could accept it.
The Li family’s patriarch could accept it, even if he had to face the powerful Sacred Lord Brahma.
He was feeling lucky.
He had all the cultivators of the Li family behind him. If he took the opportunity to activate the sect-protecting array, he might be able to fight with Sacred Lord Brahma. Even if he was defeated, it would be better than being at the mercy of others.
The Li family’s patriarch was about to order the Li family disciples to activate the sect-protecting array, but he found that he was locked onto by Sacred Lord Brahma’s aura. He couldn’t mobilize the spiritual energy in his body at all.
Then, Lord Xinghe just casually glanced at the Li family patriarch.
Everyone saw that the Li family patriarch seemed to have been hit by an invisible force. He fell from the sky and crashed heavily to the ground.
Blood gushed out.
The Li family patriarch had underestimated the strength of a cultivator at the Tribulation Transcension stage.
As a cultivator at the late stage of the Soul Formation stage, he had no power to fight back in front of a cultivator at the Tribulation Transcension stage. He could not even escape.
At this moment, the Li family’s patriarch’s heart was as dead as ash.
However, in the next moment, the Li family’s patriarch’s face returned to its savage expression.
He still had a sliver of hope in his heart.
“Sacred Lord Brahma, I know that I can’t defeat you, but do you know that my Li family is protected by the phoenix? You and that ‘Senior’ behind you are treating the Li family like this. Aren’t you afraid of the phoenix’s revenge or the fate of the Li family turning on you?”
Phoenix.
This was the trump card of the Li family’s ancestor.
He could only place his hopes on the phoenix.
Sacred Lord Brahma was a big shot that was about to ascend to the upper realm. He would definitely worry about his fate being damaged or entangled with karma to avoid increasing the power of the Heavenly Tribulation.
The big shot behind Sacred Lord Brahma would also worry about this.
If they weren’t afraid that their luck would be damaged, then Sacred Lord Brahma and the big figure behind him should at least consider the threat of the phoenix.
However, Sacred Lord Brahma didn’t show any fear.
Sacred Lord Brahma sneered:
“You’re really shameless. Do you think you can protect yourself with the phoenix?”
“I will tell you today that you are wrong. Very wrong.”
“Do you know why the Divine Bird Phoenix descended to the Mortal World?”
“If it wasn’t for that Lord who lured the phoenix down to the Mortal World with his song ‘Seeking the Phoenix’, do you think that a mere parasol tree branch could attract the phoenix? If that was the case, why didn’t the phoenix descend to the Mortal World when you first obtained the parasol tree branch?”
“If it wasn’t for that Lord, how would your Li family have today’s fortune?”
“The fortune of your Li family and your rapid breakthrough in cultivation were all given by that Lord. You don’t know how to be grateful, but instead, you took an inch and took a mile. You even wanted to have designs on the phoenix. Even after that Lord gave you a warning, you didn’t repent and continued to head to the Grand Moon Sect…”
“If that Lord can give you all this, then he can take it back at any time.”
“How your Li family obtained all this, today, you will return it exactly as it was!”
