“This power is far too strong for me. If I rashly approach, will I be consumed by it?” The Law Sovereign's cultivation level was significantly higher than Ye Zui's, and his first thought was not of opportunity, but of crisis.
Then he thought, “If I can obtain this power, then who in the world would I fear? Even if Wuzhuo City and Ning Tianya team up, what would I have to be afraid of? Even if that terrifying person returns, I would still have the means to contend with them!”
After a moment, the darkness cleared away.
Yet in the Law Sovereign's eyes, he could clearly see a wisp of faint black mist rapidly advancing southward in the high sky.
The Law Sovereign furrowed his brow and ultimately decided to chase after it. At the same time, he touched the Heavenly Repair Jade in his bosom, thinking to himself, even if it’s harmful, I still have the Heavenly Repair Jade here that specifically counters dark demonic energy; it shouldn’t be difficult to escape...
With his thoughts settled, he floated into the air.
In the next moment, he emitted his unique divine thought and located the two shadows.
After giving a few instructions, he transformed himself into a cloud of black mist and disappeared without a trace with a “whoosh”...
The battle formation had been fully deployed!
Today was already the evening of the ninth day!
At this moment, Mo Tianji had partially regained his spirit, as his previous effort to calculate the heaven's secret had left his body extremely weak, and there was an additional troubling matter.
This unexpected change made Mo Tianji's situation all the more dire.
After consuming an incomplete version of the ninefold pill, his body recovered; however, even so, the Great Deceiver's brow remained tightly furrowed, never again relaxing.
“Old Li, after today's battle, the Li family will cease to exist!” Mo Tianji said in a deep voice.
This was not a private conversation between the two; they were in the Li family hall, before all the high-level supremes of the Li family, and Mo Tianji did not use sound transmission, clearly stating it out loud.
At this point, the situation was already clear; saying comforting words like maybe or possibly was meaningless, so Mo Tianji chose the most direct way to clarify the current state and expose the situation.
Li Chunbo's expression was calm as he said solemnly, “Indeed, the Li family is now nearly bereft of everything, and the outcome is already determined! Back then, I took my father's wishes to establish the Li family in a situation where we had nearly nothing, creating this ancestral foundation that has lasted for thousands of years. I never dreamed that the Li family, established under my hand, would ultimately be destroyed by my closest brothers.”
“However, now that it has come to this, expressing more sentiment is of no use. What I truly did not expect is that the final downfall of the Li family would be at the hands of my closest brothers. The bonds of affection are hard to sever.” Li Chunbo smiled faintly, “Though there are always reasons behind things, reaching this point leaves us with no words to say.”
“Let this be a repayment for the sins committed by the Li family over the years... a complete repayment using the entirety of the Li family,” Li Chunbo chuckled.
“Senior, you are broad-minded.” Mo Tianji sincerely praised, then revealed a slight bitter smile and said, “The outcome is already unavoidable, yet we must still face it positively.”
“I will do everything I can to make the invading enemies pay the heaviest price!”
Mo Tianji said calmly, “Tonight, let’s each take our positions. A battle of life and death is just around the corner; everyone, if there’s anything else you need to say or do, make sure to get it all done before midnight! Once the hour passes, there will be no more chances!”
“We are already prepared! No more attachments, only to kill the enemies!” everyone shouted in unison.
“We’ve killed a lot, both the enemies and the innocent; we’ve also committed many heinous acts! If we can take a few down with us before we die, that would be worth it!”
