Chapter 40: Past Events, Grudges
Chapter 40: Past Events, Grudges
Time was like flowing water, passing by in an instant.
After Lin Ling had beheaded many Li Clan powerhouses and snatched away many treasures.
Great Yan City had passed a few days calmly like this.
And during this period of time, the Li Family peers who had been provoking the Lin Family’s juniors everywhere in Great Yan City had somehow decreased by a lot, and even the young masters who were usually arrogant and domineering and untouchable within the city had lost their previous arrogant attitudes and had become much more low-key.
This made the many forces that were always paying attention to the conflict between the Li Family and the Lin Family unable to help but feel a little puzzled.
“What’s going on, has the Li Family changed its ways? It’s actually become so low-key.”
“I don’t know, but according to the Li Family’s previous style of behavior, things definitely aren’t that simple, when things go wrong, there must be a demon~!”
“Although the words are right, but this rain me no melon, anyway, no matter what the Li family has plotted, it can’t be against us little minions, let them go fight.”
“Speaking as if it’s related to you, you have the strength to fight against others.”
“.”
The Li Family’s action of collecting spiritual pills was still quite secretive, and the major forces within Great Yan City, other than the City Lord’s Mansion, hardly any of the forces on one side detected anything unusual.
However, the City Lord’s Mansion, as a transcendent power directly belonging to the Great Chu Dynasty, would normally not pay any attention to the fights between the major powers within the city.
Thus, just as many forces were having their attention drawn by the Li Family’s sudden change in attitude.
Secretly, the Li Family powerhouses that Li Burning Sky had sent out to acquire spirit medicines from the major trading markets became very smooth.
At the time when they sensed that something was wrong and wanted to raise the selling price of the spirit pills or ban their sale.
The Li Family’s strongmen had already acquired more than 10,000 first-grade spirit medicines as well as thousands of second-grade spirit medicines from various stores in Great Yan City, along with the spirit medicines acquired from the east of the city as well as the north of the city’s spirit medicine street.
The Li Family had a total of 20,000 first-grade spirit medicines and nearly 2,000 second-grade spirit medicines, as well as three third-grade spirit medicines.
“With these spirit medicines as a base, there shouldn’t be much of a problem in grabbing the clientele of the Lin family’s workshop and store.”
“However…”
Looking at the medicinal scent in front of him, piling up the spirit medicines that filled the entire hall, Li Burnt Sky’s terrible mood finally turned back quite a bit, but the moment he thought of Lin Chen’s terrifying strength that was suspected to be at the Mortal Transformation Realm, he couldn’t help but furrow his brows.
However, as soon as he thought of Deacon Wang’s promise as well as the undercard that Wang Tianshi had on him, his tightly locked brow instantly stretched out.
Things had come to this point, so they had to be done even if they weren’t.
As for whether or not the Wang Family would not help his Li Family just because Lin Chen had broken through to the Mortal Transformation Realm, Li Burnt Sky didn’t even think about it.
After all, everyone knew the reason why Wang Bouda would take the initiative to help himself, but, who let him have a filial and good son?
As long as Li Tiangang’s position in the Cloud Moon Sect remained the same, it was impossible for the Wang family to turn their backs on them or not to help the Li family.
Of course, this was not the main thing.
The most crucial thing was that with the Wang Family’s strength a mere powerhouse who had just broken through to the Mortal Transformation Realm didn’t have the qualifications to make them back down.
“Three days, there are still three days to go, the seven day period will be here, now first endure your Lin family for a few days, after three days, huh”
Murmuring to himself, Li Burning Sky couldn’t help but look in the direction where the Lin Family was, a piercing cold light flashed in his eyes.
On what grounds, on what grounds you a halfway out of the mud leg, are able to break through to the Mortal Transformation realm?
On what grounds?
I am not convinced~!
Li Burnt Sky cried out in his heart, his hatred towards Lin Chen reaching a peak.
Once upon a time, he was the pride of heaven in the Great Yan City, receiving the attention of all, and even breaking through to the Blood Transformation Realm at the age of puzzlement to take over the position of head of the Li Family, with unlimited splendor.
However, I don’t know whether the heavens see Li Zhuntian too smooth, or destiny has this calamity.
Before he could enjoy the scenery for a long time, Lin Chen carried an invincible momentum and led the Lin Family’s descendants to enter the Great Yan City, and even in front of countless people in the city, rubbing him under his feet.
Even their Li Family Ancestor and Tang Family Ancestor had attacked together, but they were no match for him.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the battle had affected the surrounding buildings, causing the City Lord’s Mansion to step in, I’m afraid that the strongest members of their two great clans would have to be planted there.
But even so, it had left a great shadow in the hearts of many of the Li and Tang family’s powerhouses.
For decades in a row, they didn’t dare to provoke the Lin family. Li Burning Sky was the same back then.
That was until his son, Li Tiangang, who carried the Heavenly Dipper Spiritual Body, was born.
The hatred that had been silent for a long time as well as the ambition to dominate Great Yan City when he was young and ambitious came to life at this moment.
However, he also knew.
Even if his son possessed a top level spirit body like the Big Dipper Spirit Body, it would only be in vain if he didn’t grow up or obtain the shelter of a great power.
Therefore, on that night, the Li family’s blood flowed.
All the midwives who delivered Li Tiangang, as well as the maidservants and guards who saw the visions triggered by his birth, were all executed by Li Burning Sky.
In his heart, only the dead can keep secrets.
It was only until recently, when Li Tiangang became the personal disciple of the Cloud Moon Sect’s Heavenly Cloud Elder, that he dared to expose that trace of ambition in his heart.
And the first target was the Lin family, who had humiliated themselves so much that they could only be cleansed with blood~!
“If it’s only the personal disciple of the Supreme Elder, although the Wang Family would think about befriending my Li Family, they shouldn’t be that attached, the only thing that would make Deacon Wang so proactive in befriending is the fact that the probability of Gang’s son becoming a Young Patriarch is very high.”
“I have to make good use of this layer of relationship to unify Great Yan City as early as possible and develop my Li Family’s power to other cities and pools”
“Only when the power is strong will I be able to earn more resources to help Gang’er.”
With his son being so powerful, he, an old father, couldn’t afford to drag his feet.
Otherwise, even if Li Tiangang broke through to the Blood Transformation Realm and became the Young Sect Leader of the Cloud Moon Sect, the moment someone asked you where your old family was from.
You say it’s Great Yan City.
The other people take a look at, oh exempt?
It turns out to be a good luck child from a small remote town~!
Subconsciously, they will look down on you, making it more difficult for you to be recognized.
However, if their Li Family unifies Great Yan City and develops their power to a certain extent, they can enter Fire Xuan County.
At that time, the situation would be different.
Fire Xuan County at least had a Fire Xuan King’s Mansion in town, which even possessed a strong man of the Avatar realm, and was able to rank among the top ten in the entire Great Chu Dynasty’s counties and cities.
It was already enough to make many people look at it squarely.
In this way, Li Tiangang was also able to have a lot less trouble.
Soon, in the blink of an eye, three days had passed like this.
In the morning, inside a workshop controlled by the Lin Family.
People were abuzz, and the sky was filled with the sounds of hawking and bargaining.
The owners of these voices were the voices of the stall owners and guests of the stalls that individuals had rented from the Lin Family.
And not far from the roadside stalls, there was also a store towering over the street, there were pill sellers, weapon sellers, cloth sellers, and there were also restaurants and eateries .
Of these, the ones that did the best business were none other than the stores selling pills.
