Chapter 524: Chapter 67 Desolate God_2

“Let’s see what instructions we need to be given.”

Li Yuanzhao’s eyes showed hesitation as he bowed his head and asked softly.

Li Wushuang, however, stared directly at Li Tiangang. Since the words had been spoken by Li Yuanzhao, she did not open her mouth.

Seeing these young ones clad in armor, ready to head to the battlefield at any moment, Li Tiangang’s cold gaze softened a bit, and his tone became gentle, saying,

“You are all good children. Just wait and rest until the other members of the Li family return, and then your help will be needed.”

With that, he bypassed them swiftly and headed into the distance.

Li Yuanzhao and the others were momentarily stunned, watching the powerful figure fade away, feeling a bit out of place for a moment.

*It felt as if today’s Seventh Uncle was a gentle elder, an impression they had never felt before.*

Li Wushuang turned back and watched until that figure disappeared, her cold gaze becoming dim and downcast,

“He was the best… If only I had told him those words back then, none of those things would have happened, and he wouldn’t have… died.”

Hearing this, Li Yuanzhao and the others were taken aback. The image of that exceptional, carefree figure instantly appeared in their minds, and they all fell silent.

Li Yuanzhao’s fingers curled into a fist, and he lowered his head, biting his teeth. Even though many days had passed, mentioning Li Hao still made his eyes red.

Within Shuihua Courtyard.

The courtyard had been sealed, with only two old servants inside, attending to Liu Yue Rong.

“Blood Summoning of the Ancestors… Blood Summoning of the Ancestors…”

In the pavilion within the courtyard, Liu Yue Rong gazed absentmindedly in the direction of the ancestral hall. She no longer possessed her past beauty, adorned in luxurious clothing, her hair simply tied up, and without any makeup, she looked haggard.

“Li Tiangang, so ruthless, no wonder you even drove your own son away!”

“My son… don’t do anything foolish, follow the Buddha Lord and cultivate properly. Once you achieve the Grand Tao of Peace Realm and rival the Ancestor, even if the Divine General Mansion falls, it can be rebuilt. Do not think about your mother and return foolishly…”

Liu Yue Rong turned to look in the direction of Mount Wuliang, her eyes red as she bowed her head in prayer.

…

As time passed.

Each city in Qingzhou received the news sent by the Li family’s secret order. The Li family members holding positions in various cities quickly broadcasted signals.

These signals were meant to inform those of Li family bloodlines and guide them, though those who departed from the Li family too early might have forgotten the meaning of these signals.

Nevertheless, those who were the first to rush to Qingzhou had already swarmed into the cities, following the guidance of each city to head to the Huai River and up to Qingzhou City.

The remaining part were traveling across the wilderness, fighting with scattered demons while making their way to Qingzhou City.

Shortly after the Blood Summoning of the Ancestors, outside Qingzhou City, behind the demon tide.

On the hilltop where the elders of the Gragon Gate and Holy Palace, as well as the leaders of the two major forces, were located, the head of Gragon Gate appeared as a stern young man in a black robe. He seemed to sense something and looked towards the city.

Above Qingzhou City, an elder of Tianji Palace detected a flash of blood light inside the Divine General Mansion and was immediately startled, swiftly flying down and transforming into a young woman.

“Master, it seems that the Li family in the Divine General Mansion has used the legendary Divine General Blood Summoning Secret Skill!”

The young woman in a green dress hastily said.

Long Jue Shen’s face changed, looking somewhat unpleasant, “These guys, are they really planning to fight to the death with no regard for survival?”

He also had some understanding of the heritage of the Divine General Mansion. Two thousand years ago, a Divine General Mansion once collapsed and was forced to use this secret skill, gathering all bloodline members of the family to summon the ancestor’s body and heroic spirits, unleashing terrifying power but ultimately meeting defeat.

“In this way, it saves the bother of searching one by one, and everything can be dealt with in one go.”

Feng Lingxiao opened his eyes, speaking coldly, yet there was a hint of anger in his gaze as well.

“How long until you fully recover?” Long Jue Shen looked at him.

“Soon, in three or five days, it will be fine.”

Feng Lingxiao said.

“Too long.” Long Jue Shen frowned, staring at him.

Feng Jiutian felt a surge of anger when he saw his gaze, thinking to himself, *If you’d dare to risk everything, would you even fear an old dog at the Half-step Tao Realm!*

But these were only thoughts in his head. Now was not the time for internal bickering.

“If you can restrain that old Li Muxiu, I can break the formation,” he said.

Long Jue Shen remained silent. Just then, a wisp of black energy came flying from afar, landing on the mountain peak.

The arrival of this black energy left the surrounding demons completely unaware. Only when it descended did it alarm them.

The black energy dissipated, revealing snow-white long legs as a graceful woman with dark violet markings on her cheeks stepped out gently.

She looked at Long Jue Shen and Feng Jiutian with a smile in her eyes, “The Yu Divine Dynasty drove you out like pigs and dogs for a reason. It’s truly disappointing how sloppy you’ve been with such a small task entrusted to you.”

“Desolate God, my lord!”

Seeing the woman, Long Jue Shen and Feng Lingxiao’s expressions changed, their bodies tensed slightly, and a hint of nervousness appeared in their eyes.

“How did you come here? What about the Imperial City over there…” Long Jue Shen couldn’t help but ask in a low voice.

“It’s just one of my avatars,” the woman replied lightly, “That old emperor is clever. The Imperial Royal Family, indeed heartless, has no intention of sending that True Person to act, only caring for their own lives.”

Her tone was indifferent, “If you continue to delay, don’t mention the Li family bloodline—the Ninth Prince is also on his way here. Then it won’t be as simple as it is now.”

“What?”

Upon hearing this, Long Jue Shen and Feng Lingxiao were both taken aback. That Ninth Prince was one of the strongest among the emperor’s brothers, second only to that Sword Demon!

“When did this happen, and how far is he?”

Feng Lingxiao couldn’t help but ask, remembering the battle in Northern Yan, his expression turned grim. He had thought he had severely wounded the opponent then, but had he recovered so quickly?

“Soon, which is why I’ve come here as an avatar to block him for you if necessary. You’d better hurry up and deal with the Li family. It’s not the right time for us to reveal ourselves, and it’s best for you to act wisely. If you’re truly too incompetent, it’s not impossible to do without you…”

Hearing her words, the two of them changed their expressions slightly and immediately agreed.

The woman glanced at the two, then looked at the city once more, waving her fingers to summon two mystical artifacts filled with ominous energy out of thin air:

“These two Saint Heart Heavenly Treasures are a loan to you. Today, I want to see the Li family rivers run red!”

With that, her figure dissipated like a wisp of black energy, leaving two treasures floating in the air.

Long Jue Shen and Feng Lingxiao’s eyes flashed with light as they quickly reached out to each take one treasure.

They liked to call these items the Saint Heart Heavenly Treasures, but those outside the Dayu Territory called them Saint Heart Treasures.

Even though they were top-notch demon forces, the two of them had each practiced cultivation for ten thousand years, and a thousand years ago, when the Tiaobao Taoist died, they raided the treasure house of the Ten Thousand Artifacts Tower, only seizing a few top-grade Divine Weapons.

Once these treasures appeared in the world, they were typically divided among the Imperial Family and the five Divine General Mansions.

In the Great Wilderness Heaven, only the Ancient Holy Clan could easily bring them out. Other small clans would find it difficult to possess even one or two items.
