This news nearly drove Li Wubo to despair!
Especially after realizing that Purple Sky Smoke was unreliable! Li Wubo felt as though he had stepped into a trap from which he could never escape!
I am such a fool!
He had believed that capturing Lang Yilang would lead to obtaining the number one in the world Amethyst mine. I actually believed it...
Now, not only had he escaped, but he had also destroyed the Li Family and plunged himself into an irreversible calamity because Lang Yilang had fled as well.
What was most devastating was that Lang Yilang had run after being attacked by the Li Family! It was said that Lang Yilang was gravely injured, and five out of the nine enforcers had died...
This was a bitter enmity that could not coexist!
Thinking of this, Li Wubo felt a chill run down his spine, and his heart trembled.
"How far do you intend to lead me to my doom?!" Li Wubo roared to the sky, his voice sounding more like a wail. In this desolate wasteland amid the heavy snow, a sense of sorrow arose.
Looking at the clan members around him, all busy yet with expressions of grief and numbness on their faces.
Li Wubo let out a long sigh.
In his arms, he still held the prepared poison and the Spring Drug: meant to deal with Purple Sky Smoke.
As he gazed at several carefully selected beauties he had prepared for Purple Sky Smoke to carry on the family line, Li Wubo wished he could raise his hand and slap himself hard!
One misstep led to another: from the moment he believed the other party could extract the Amethyst mine, it was as if he had been led by the nose!
The other party's methods were not sophisticated, but they captured one crucial word: greed!
His own greed!
Or rather, the Li family's greed.
What left Li Wubo speechless was that this whole incident, for Purple Sky Smoke, was truly a case of unintended consequences: she had never intended to come! It was the family's people who had forced her to come...
What a big joke! He had pushed someone here, only to end up annihilating his own family and making an incredibly powerful enemy...
For a moment, Li Wubo felt a bit lost.
What should he do now? Reconstruction here could not wait, but the situation on the other side was even more urgent! If Lang Yilang and the others managed to escape back, the Li Family would face the most brutal retaliation from the enforcers of the law!
What to do?
As expected of the patriarch of one of the nine great clans, Li Wubo was only dazed for a brief moment before making a decisive decision!
Here, things could be delayed slightly, but if there was a moment of negligence there, it would lead to the family's destruction!
"All supreme personnel assemble immediately!" Li Wubo issued the command.
Of course, the supreme personnel here referred to a portion that Li Wubo could mobilize. Others, such as the Elder Council of the Li Family and the Ancestral Patriarch Hall, were forces that even the patriarch could not freely deploy.
Nevertheless, in a short time, over a hundred supreme masters gathered.
"The Li Family is facing a matter of life and death!" Li Wubo took a deep breath: "I hope everyone will put aside their current tasks and immediately lead your personnel to seal off the northwest and capture the enemies!"
The supreme masters exchanged glances: Was this truly a matter of life and death? Wasn't the family's current miserable state already a matter of life and death?
Was there anything more serious than this?
Li Wubo briefly explained the situation, saying, "If Lang Yilang returns to the Enforcer of the Law City... you should all know what the Li Family is about to face..."
Everyone gasped sharply.
"If we capture Lang Yilang, we will possess the number one in the world Amethyst mine, and our power will soar dramatically. Even if the Ye Family and Xiao Clan join forces, they may not be able to match the Li Family! But if we fail to catch Lang Yilang and allow any of them to escape, the Li Family will face an irreversible calamity!"
Li Wubo's voice was heavy.
He felt a bitter taste in his mouth: the number one in the world Amethyst mine was something he initially didn't want to mention, but saying it felt like a knife stabbing into his heart.
