Chapter 162: Li Wuqiangs Bad Move!
One hour later…
The earthquake finally stopped.
Half of the Xiao Family had already been reduced to ruins. The Xiao Family members stood helplessly on the street, staring foolishly at the broken wall before them.
In the courtyard, Li Wuqiang"s large red hand held Wu Chengkong while Li Ran held Feng Wanjiang.
Their clothes were ragged, and their faces were pale. They were as motionless as two dead dogs.
Li Wuqiang indignantly cursed, "You"re just a mere Heavenly Tribulation child, yet you dare to call me by my name? It would be better if it were the Supreme Dao Palace Chief!"
Clearly, the words "Binding Mad Devil" had deeply stimulated his nerves.
Li Ran was stunned. "Old Li, how do you know he belongs to the Supreme Dao Palace? You know each other?"
"How could I possibly know this type of Heavenly Tribulation trash!?”
Li Wuqiang said, "The Dao Insight on this person"s body is the same as Chen Yundao’s Ox-nose. So it must be that of the Supreme Dao Palace."
"Ox-nose…"
Li Ran shook his head and smiled.
That was an Emperor-level expert. But, of course, not many people in the entire Vast Land dared to say that.
Li Ran looked at the dying Feng Wanjiang, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed through his eyes.
A dark light quietly condensed in his hand.
"Brat, I know what you want to do, but I advise you not to do that." Li Wuqiang"s voice rang out.
Li Ran frowned. "Why?"
Li Wuqiang said, "Because this isn"t just going to offend Chen Yundao, it also gives him a chance to make a legitimate move."
Li Ran"s eyes flickered.
"I have the backing of the Youluo Temple. At worst, I"ll cultivate in the sect until I reach the Emperor-level and then come out. You"re also protecting the Central City. So what’s there to worry about?"
"This…"
Li Wuqiang"s embarra.s.sed voice sounded. “But this old man cannot beat him."
“???”
"Aren"t you an Emperor too? You should be about the same, right?"
"Who told you that?" Li Wuqiang explained, "Emperor level is just a general term for cultivation. True strength depends on laws and divine abilities. How many Nascent Souls in the world are your opponents?
“Emperor Rankings are also divided into ordinary and geniuses emperors. For example, Leng Wuyan and Chen Yundao are geniuses, whereas this old man… Cough cough At most, he could be considered a talent.”
"And Emperor level is not the end… So forget it; even if I say anything more, you won"t understand."
Li Ran shook his head. "To simply put, you"re a coward."
Li Wuqiang surprisingly didn"t refute him. Instead, he said indifferently, "Back then, Ox-nose suppressed the entire Devil Dao by himself. If Leng Wuyan hadn’t appeared out of nowhere, I"m afraid that the Devil Dao would have been like a candle in the wind.”
"You haven"t experienced that period. So you might wonder what weight the name ‘Chen Yundao" signifies.”
"If he dares to make a move, I can barely protect the Li Family, but the Xiao Family definitely won"t be able to withstand the storm.”
Li Ran"s eyes were a little solemn.
Li Wuqiang had always given him the feeling of being cynical. It was very rare for him to speak in such a severe manner. It would appear that the Ox-nosed Old Daoist was someone not to be trifled with.
Li Wuqiang said, "Li Ran, you are a genius who would eventually become an Emperor. The most crucial factor is time. Don"t fall before you become invincible. Otherwise, everything will be empty talk.”
"Don"t give someone like Chen Yundao and Yi Qinglan any leverage. If they end up having a reason to act, I"m afraid everything will be over!" Li Wuqiang spoke from the bottom of his heart.
The Vast Land was vast, filled with outstanding people and will. Countless geniuses would be born every year, but how many could truly ascend to the Immortal Realm?
Most of them either died prematurely or did not have a firm will.
Whether it was his temperament or apt.i.tude, Li Ran was the only one he had seen in his life. The only thing he needed right now was time to grow.
Why take such a risk for the sake of a mere trash Golden Core?
Li Ran himself understood this principle.
He looked at Feng Wanjiang and said regretfully, "Then let him go?"
This guy had threatened Xiao Qingge before.
Li Ran was displeased to let him off just like that.
Li Wuqiang pondered for a moment before a red light entered Feng Wanjiang"s dantian.
His mud-like body trembled for a moment, and a trace of redness flashed across his face before he fainted.
"Old Li, what did you just do?"
"I used a secret technique to lock down his essence. As long as this fellow doesn"t reach the Heavenly Tribulation Realm, he"ll never be able to get it up again." Li Wuqiang said in a despicable manner.
Li Ran trembled. "Isn"t your move too damaging?"
Li Wuqiang said unhappily, "Isn"t it just to vent your anger for you?"
Li Ran looked at Wu Chengkong and said, "Then don"t favor one thing over the other. Lock this old thing up."
"No need," he said.
Li Wuqiang said, "He lost his essence and kidney energy. He"s no longer a man."
Li Ran shook his head.
These two were truly difficult.
Li Wuqiang"s large red hand clamped the two of them with his thumb and middle finger, and with a "bang" sound, they were sent flying.
They drew a beautiful arc and completely disappeared from everyone"s sight.
Li Ran held onto the wall and watched them turn into a ray of light in the distance.
Li Wuqiang replied via voice transmission, "I have to go back. I"m too active today."
"Alright, I"ll go back to the secret ground to find you later.” Li Ran nodded.
The red hand in the void dissipated.
Li Ran moved his shoulder for a moment. Then, just as he turned around, he was stunned.
The Xiao Family members were pitiful and helpless. Half of the Xiao Mansion behind them had turned into ruins.
Li Ran was a little embarra.s.sed.
Just now, he and Old Li had beaten up too much, but in the end, they accidentally destroyed the Xiao Family…
“Li Ran!"
Xiao Qingge threw herself into his arms like a petrified swallow, dilly-dallying like a kitten.
"When did you come back?
"I missed you so much!”
"That Elder Wu was terrifying just now…"
She hugged Li Ran tightly as she could not finish her words.
"It"s fine. I"m here." Li Ran rubbed her head lovingly.
"Nephew Li."
At this moment, Xiao Nian walked over and cupped his hands, "Thank you, nephew Li, for your help. My Xiao Family owes you another great favor!"
Li Ran shook his head, "I"m sorry, Uncle Xiao, for causing the Xiao Family to end up like this."
Xiao Nian said thoughtfully, "What is a house? People were the foundation! If Qingge were taken away today, the consequences would be unimaginable!"
The Supreme Dao Palace had terrible intentions.
If Xiao Qingge were brought to the mountain, who knew what she would face.
Li Ran thought for a moment and said, "I"ll send someone over later to help you guys clean up and repair. I"ll try to restore the Xiao Mansion as soon as possible."
"Before that, everyone should go to my Li family for a short while."
He smiled and said, "Why don"t you stay at the Li residence for a few days?"
Xiao Qingge was stunned. “Why am I the only one going?”
Xiao Nian whispered something into her ear.
Xiao Qingge"s cheeks turned redder and redder. In the end, she covered her face shyly and rebuked, "Father, what are you talking about? I don"t want to talk to you anymore!"
Li Ran looked at the two of them blankly.
Xiao Nian patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Good nephew, do your best!"
"Ah?"
