169 The Number One Prodigy in the Great World of Divine Desolation, Yan Huihuang!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
…
As soon as Lin Wudao left, many powerful figures arrived in front of Li Chengyin.
The person at the front was Xiong Tuo.
“True Dragon Academy? May I know why you have come to the Li family?”
Seeing Xiong Tuo and the others, although Li Chengyin had already guessed the reason for their arrival in his heart, he still asked.
No one wasted any time. They went straight to the point.
“Young Master Li, I am the 8th successive disciple of the True Dragon Academy, Xiong Tuo. The main purpose of my visit is to ask if you are willing to go to the True Dragon Academy to cultivate. True Dragon Academy will treat you as a successive disciple as well, and your status and resources will be above mine. What do you think, Young Master Li?” Xiong Tuo asked amiably.
Similarly, the others also expressed their intentions.
“The Xia Dynasty sincerely invites Young Master Li to come and cultivate in our dynasty. We will definitely treat you as a pillar of the country.”
“The Baitian Sect invites Young Master Li to cultivate in our sect.”
“The Yinyue Dynasty sincerely invites Young Master Li to cultivate in our dynasty.”
…
Many factions in the Green Heaven Region extended their olive branches, wanting to invite Li Chengyin to join them.
Ha…
Li Chengyin was instantly overwhelmed by everyone’s heated gazes.
This was the first time he had experienced such treatment, and all of this was thanks to Dongfang Bubai.
“Thank you for your kind intentions. My potential is limited, so I don’t want to leave Heishui Ancient City for the time being. Please forgive me.”
Without hesitation, Li Chengyin rejected their kind invitations frankly.
Currently, the entire Li Family was already attached to the City of Sin. If he were to switch factions now, wouldn’t that be equivalent to betraying the City of Sin?
At that time, once Lin Wudao was furious, their Li family would definitely be reduced to ashes.
He could not afford that price.
Even though the True Dragon Academy was a major faction in the Green Heaven Region and he yearned to go, Li Chengyin did not dare to take the risk.
He had witnessed Lin Wudao’s strength. Even a Mystic Heaven Realm powerhouse from the Shangqing Sword Palace had been killed by the other party with a single strike. How could he dare to rebel?
“Hehe…”
Seemingly seeing through Li Chengyin’s worry, Xiong Tuo and the others could not help but chuckle.
“Young Master Li, are you worried about the City of Sin?”
“This…”
“To be honest, you don’t have to worry about this at all. Although Lin Wudao from the City of Sin is cruel and brutal, he’s still a n.o.body. How can he fight against us? As long as Young Master Li chooses any of the factions here, you will be able to become a successive disciple. At that time, with the support of the faction behind you, why should you be afraid of Lin Wudao?” Someone from the Baitian Sect said proudly. He seemed to be extremely confident in his strength.
Hearing their words, Li Chengyin still shook his head.
“Thank you for your kindness. However, I don’t want to leave the Heishui Ancient City. This place is my root. I only want to stay here and spend the rest of my life.”
After saying that, he fell silent.
Seeing this, everyone’s expressions became somewhat unsightly.
“Hmph, you don’t know how to appreciate favors.”
“Young Master Li, it is only normal for people to strive for higher ground, just like water flows downwards. As a person, we still have to look forward.”
“This is a rare opportunity. I hope Young Master Li will reconsider it.”
“In that case, I will not force you.”
“What a pity.”
…
Everyone sighed.
After that, they persuaded him for a while more. Seeing that Li Chengyin was still unmoved, they could only leave resentfully.
This was the Heishui Ancient City. They knew their limits. If they angered Lin Wudao, they would all die.
After all, Lin Wudao was extremely cruel. He even dared to kill the people of the Shangqing Sword Palace. Killing them was something he could and might do.
In fact, that was indeed the case.
After Xiong Tuo and the others left, Li Chengyin, who had just walked out of the room, inadvertently glanced at the eaves in the distance. His eyes instantly revealed unprecedented fear.
This was because on the roof stood a fierce man. It was Li Zangtian!
Whoosh!
After giving him a cold glance, Li Zangtian disappeared.
“Hu…”
Li Chengyin heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Li Zangtian leave. He was drenched in a cold sweat.
“If I had agreed earlier and even showed the slightest sign of being tempted, I might have become a corpse at this moment.”
He felt a lingering fear.
His previous caution had saved his life, as well as the entire Li family.
Thinking of this, Li Chengyin did not dare to have any more thoughts. After adjusting his mood, he walked toward the Path to Heaven with a heart full of reverence.
…
Li Zangtian’s actions were naturally instructed by Lin Wudao.
If Li Chengyin dared to join another faction, he would kill the other party without hesitation. He would even destroy the entire Li family.
He would not keep an existence that was out of his control.
Now, it could be considered a warning to Li Chengyin. As long as he was not stupid, he would know what to do.
Lin Wudao did not pay much attention to this matter.
After leaving the Li family, he returned to the scene of the Path to Heaven.
Whoosh!
Coincidentally, at this moment, a sharp air-piercing sound came from the distant horizon, accompanied by a monstrous power and extraordinary bearing.
Looking up, he saw a huge spiritual boat that was 3,000 feet long descending on the Heishui Ancient City.
There was a dragon flag on it.
“The Xia Dynasty!”
Everyone’s spirits were lifted.
One by one, their gazes landed on the spiritual boat.
With the dragon flag on the boat, it was obvious that a major character of the Xia Dynasty had arrived. Moreover, it was someone from the royal family.
Who could it be?
Everyone’s eyes were filled with antic.i.p.ation.
Thump!
Just as everyone was in shock, the door of the palace on the spiritual boat opened with a bang. Immediately after, a middle-aged man wearing a robe embroidered with nine dragons and exuding a monstrous aura slowly walked out.
Just by standing there, he gave off a peerless aura.
“What?”
“It’s the Emperor of Xia!”
“Yan Zangtian? He actually came personally?”
…
An uproar arose as the crowd let out deafening cries of surprise.
At this moment, everyone’s eyes were focused on Yan Zangtian, the Emperor of Xia.
“He is the Emperor of Xia?”
Lin Wudao was also secretly surprised.
The Emperor of Xia, the ruler of the Xia Dynasty, was a lofty figure with extraordinary bearing.
No one expected him to come personally.
“Even the Emperor of Xia has arrived. It seems like he’s here specifically for Yan Huihuang,” Li Heishui said in a deep voice.
Yan Huihuang, the woman who suppressed many geniuses of the Great World of Divine Desolation to the point they suffocated.
Every time she was mentioned, many men would feel extremely aggrieved.
In the past twenty years, no one could defeat her.
She suppressed the Great World of Divine Desolation as a woman!
To the Great World of Divine Desolation, this was an honor. However, to the men of the Great World of Divine Desolation, it was a humiliation.
All these years, countless geniuses tried to challenge Yan Huihuang’s position, but they all failed.
Today, the Emperor of Xia had come personally. Clearly, he wanted to see Yan Huihuang’s peerless demeanor on the Path to Heaven.
“So, Yan Huihuang will be going up next?”
Thinking of this, Lin Wudao immediately waited patiently.
…
Whoosh!
After some time, just as everyone was still immersed in the might of the Emperor of Xia, an ancient spiritual boat streaked across the void and appeared in front of everyone.
On it stood a woman in red who was otherworldly and as cold as the moon.
Thump!
She glanced around indifferently and took a step forward, reaching the Path to Heaven.
In an instant, everyone’s eyes and attention were focused on her.
