As the sun set, the afterglow of Spirit Seeking City dyed the Blood Condensation arena golden, and the crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed, leaving only a mess on the ground.
Li Tongyuan walked down the ring step by step with his sword in his hand. As soon as he went backstage, he saw a servant of the Li family waiting there respectfully.
"Master Tong Yuan, the clan leader invites you to visit the Yu Mansion."
The servant bowed and said with a bit of caution in his tone.
Li Tongyuan's body stiffened suddenly, the hand holding the handle of the knife tightened slightly, and his knuckles turned white.
He was silent for a moment, dismissed the people, turned and walked towards Vital Essence Body in the teahouse.
At this time, Vital Essence Body changed into Zizaitian's secret attire. Seeing Li Tongyuan approaching, he pointed to the seat opposite. "Sit down."
Li Tongyuan sat down, with a bit of hesitation in his eyes, and whispered, "The Li family... I hope I can go there."
Vital Essence Body raised his eyebrows and paused with the hand holding the teacup. "What are you going to do? Recognize your ancestors and return to your clan? Or do you want to use you as a tool to show off? What do you think?"
"I don't want to recognize my ancestors and return to my clan."
Li Tongyuan's voice suddenly became firm, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, "I want to make it clear and completely sever ties with the Li family!"
Vital Essence Body looked at him, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he regained his composure. "If you go, if they threaten your mother, or imprison you directly, and cut off your path to martial arts, will you be willing?"
Li Tongyuan's eyes turned red instantly, and a line of tears slid down his cheeks and dripped on his clothes. "I know there are risks, so I have to go.
I just want to ask my father in person why he abandoned my mother and me back then, so that we could be looked down upon outside and live like ants! " His voice was choked with sobs, but it revealed an unshakable determination.
Vital Essence Body was silent for a moment, raised his hand and patted the table with a solemn look. "Go! Remember, if you don't come back at midnight, I will go find you personally."
"Thank you, Master!" Li Tongyuan stood up suddenly, bowed deeply to Vital Essence Body, his forehead almost touching the table, then turned and left, his back stretched long under the sunset, with a bit of tragic and desperate attitude.
When Li Tongyuan's figure completely disappeared from the street corner, the gentleness on Vital Essence Body's face instantly faded, replaced by a look of coldness.
"Vital Essence Body Looked at his palm, Wang Yue Can you survive so many poor people?"
Take a deep breath.
Vital Essence Body stood up and made a gesture to the darkness of the teahouse. Three black shadows immediately appeared silently, all of which were Zizaitian's idioms. Their breath was calm and their eyes were sharp.
"Follow me to the station where the Zhao Kingdom missionary warriors reside."
Vital Essence Body's voice was as deep as ink, carrying an unquestionable command, "Contain your breath, there is no need to cover your whereabouts."
"Yes!" The three of them responded in unison, following Vital Essence Body like ghosts, walking quickly towards the house occupied by various sects in the south of the city.
After passing through two noisy streets, the atmosphere ahead suddenly became solemn.
Outside a house surrounded by high walls, there are warriors in strange clothes patrolling from time to time. The sect logos on the tokens around their waists are different - it is the temporary residence of the Zhao Kingdom's various sects in Spirit Seeking City.
Vital Essence Body didn't shy away, pushed open the heavy wooden door and stepped into the lobby.
In an instant, the noisy lobby suddenly became quiet. His face was shrouded in a layer of crystal-white essence, making it difficult to see clearly, and his whole body was entangled with a substantial cyclone of essence, like the sky hanging upside down.
This pure and sacred energy fluctuation is very similar to the legendary descendants of gods and Buddhas in the Zhao Kingdom.
Dozens of warriors in the lobby looked sideways, and a dozen figures with strong auras stood up suddenly. They were Blood Pill Realm warriors who were the mainstays of various sects.
They could clearly feel the divine pressure on the Jingqi body that was far beyond that of ordinary warriors. Although they could not guess the specific origin, they subconsciously associated it with gods and Buddhas.
They were connected together, no one dared to step forward easily, and they even breathed softly subconsciously.
The scene gradually became audible, and only the soft sound of the cyclonic flow of essence echoed in the lobby.
At this moment, a gentle figure walked out of the inner hall. The visitor was wearing a long moon-white dress, and her face was covered by a layer of gauze, revealing only a pair of eyes as clear as springs, with an expression that was somewhat otherworldly and sacred.
She bowed deeply to Vital Essence Body, and her tone was respectful with a hint of awe. "I wonder which Buddha Son is coming to our teaching camp? If there is an oracle or you want to discuss with me, please let me know."
Xianyi is certain that Vital Essence Body is the descendant of the Zhao Kingdom, the god and Buddha of a certain major sect.
Vital Essence Body didn't criticize her, just nodded slightly to the woman, and the two walked to a corner and talked in low voices.
The woman always maintained a humble attitude. When she heard that Vital Essence Body needed help, without any hesitation in her eyes, she immediately expressed her willingness to coordinate with various sects.
After a while, Vital Essence Body stood in the center of the lobby, his eyes swept across the Blood Pill Realm warriors present, and said loudly, "I need a few blood elixir comrades today, come with me to do something.
Those who are willing to go will have their own chance of Buddhahood in the future, and those who are unwilling will not force it. "
His voice carried a strange penetrating power and echoed in the lobby.
The blood pill warriors looked at each other. For them, being able to cling to the gods and Buddhas was a great opportunity. It would be extremely difficult to meet Buddha Son at the Zhao Kingdom. Not only could they please this mysterious Buddha Son, but they would not even have a chance to refuse if Zhao Kingdom Buddha Son ordered them.
Buddha Son and Saint Son can communicate directly with gods and Buddhas, and their status is respected.
Before anyone could hesitate, a strong man in a bloody robe stood up first and said angrily, "Santong Divine Cult is willing to go with Buddha Son! Through fire and water, we will do whatever it takes!" He is the blood elixir of Santong Divine Cult. He has known many things, and he is fully aware of the importance of gods and Buddhas in the sect of the Zhao Kingdom!.
With the first person to speak, the Blood Pill warriors from other sects also responded.
"Sun Moon Cult is willing to listen to Buddha Son's orders!"
"Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect is willing to go!"
In just a few breaths, five Blood Pill Realm warriors stood up, their eyes full of awe and humiliation, without any hesitation.
The Jingqi body nodded slightly and said to the five people, ".
I will remember you all after this is over.
Now, come with me. "
After saying that, he turned around and left. The whirlpool of energy around him still maintained the sacred pressure, so that the five people behind him did not dare to show any signs of neglect.
The five Blood Pill warriors followed quickly, followed closely by the three people from the sky, and the group walked in the direction of the Li family's mansion.
"The woman's expression flickered when she saw Vital Essence Body. She didn't know which Buddha Son was coming to Dachang alone. If she was discovered by an expert from Dachang... No, there should be an expert following him, or the Buddha behind him wanted to have a "divine descent"!!!
Little did she know that Vital Essence Body was the condensation of Three-Headed Buddha's magical power. Three-Headed Buddha had been swallowed by Wang Yue, and even Three-Headed Buddha Sect blood pill was found, and she still tried hard to find it.
The night is getting darker, and there are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the streets of Spirit Seeking City. Only scattered lanterns emit faint light, making their figures grow longer and shorter.
At this time, Li Tongyuan was standing in front of the Li family mansion.
This vast house is magnificent. The vermilion door is inlaid with a bronze animal head. The stone lion in front of the door is lifelike, revealing the majesty of a wealthy family.
The servant guarding the gate had a complicated look on his face when he saw him coming, but he didn't dare to stop him and quickly called him in.
Not long after, a middle-aged man in a brocade robe walked out quickly. His face was somewhat similar to Li Tongyuan. It was Li Lineage's elder Li Nei, the only Grandmaster realm strong man in the entire Li family.
"Tong Yuan, you are finally willing to come back."
Li Nei looked at Li Tongyuan, with a trace of complicated emotions flashing in his eyes, including guilt and some subtle calculations.
Li Tongyuan's eyes were cold and he didn't salute. He just looked straight at him. "I'm not here to recognize my ancestors and return to my clan. I just want to ask you, why did you abandon me and my relatives back then?"
Li Nei's face froze slightly, and then he sighed, "What happened back then is a long story, let's talk about it after we enter the room, this is not the place to talk."
He stepped aside to get out of the way, and his tone contained a hint of refusal.
Li Tongyuan hesitated for a moment, but finally stepped in. Passing through the spacious courtyard and walking into the brightly lit meeting hall, he saw several people sitting in the hall, all the core elders of the Li family. They looked at him with different eyes, some scrutinizing, some contemptuous, and some curious.
"Tong Yuan, sit down. "Li Nei pointed to the seats in the hall.
Li Tongyuan did not sit down, but still stood on the ground, staring at Li Nei: "Answer my question."
"Oh, I couldn't help myself back then."
Li Nei had a guilty look on his face, "I had just taken over as the clan leader at that time, and there was constant opposition within the clan. You are from a humble family, and if your identities are made public, it will definitely bring trouble to the Li family.
I can only place you outside temporarily. I wanted to wait until you are stable before bringing you back, but I didn't expect..."
"What didn't you expect?" Li Tongyuan asked, his voice trembling, "I didn't expect you to turn around and marry a woman from another aristocratic family, completely forgetting about me and my dear friend? Do you know what kind of life we have been living outside these years?"
"I know, I know everything."
Li Nei sighed, took out a brocade box from his arms, and handed it to Li Tongyuan, "There are one thousand taels of silver and one kilogram of intermediate martial arts secrets in it, which is my compensation for you and your wedding.
Now that you have such a talent, why not stay in the Li family, I will use the resources within the family to train you, and you will definitely become the backbone of the Li family in the future. "
Li Tongyuan looked at the brocade box with ridicule in his eyes. "Compensation? Can these things make up for your losses over the years? Let me tell you, I don't need your compensation, let alone keep the Li family! After today, I, Li Tongyuan, will sever all ties with the Li family!"
"Presumptuous! "The great elder on the side suddenly slapped the table and stood up, glaring at Li Tongyuan, "Li Tongyuan, don't be so shameless! It's your honor that the clan leader is willing to give you a chance. Do you think you, an illegitimate son, can really compete with the Li family?"
Li Tongyuan's eyes turned cold, and he held the hilt of the knife at his waist. "I'll say it again, the Li family and I will never have any grudges!"
At this moment, the door of the meeting hall was pushed open, and Vital Essence Body walked in with five blood pill warriors and people from heaven.
He took off his hood, glanced at everyone in the hall, and finally landed on Li Tongyuan, and said calmly, "Follow me."
Li Tongyuan looked at Vital Essence Body who suddenly appeared, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes, nodded, turned around and was about to leave.
"Stop them!" Li Nei roared, he could feel the power of Vital Essence Body and others. If Li Tongyuan were to leave, the Li family would lose all face, and they would even lose a genius with great potential.
But before the Li family guards could take action, the five blood elixir warriors immediately released their auras. Although they did not explode with full force, they made the air in the entire meeting hall become stagnant. The expressions of Li Nei and several elders changed drastically. Five Blood Pill Realm could easily conquer the entire Li family!
In the end, Li Nei could only grit his teeth and watch Li Tongyuan follow Vital Essence Body away without daring to say a word.
Walking out of the Li family mansion, the night became darker.
Li Tongyuan wiped the tears from his face and looked up at Vital Essence Body with firm eyes. "Master, I will not let you down in the arena!"
Vital Essence Body patted his shoulder. "With me, no one can hurt you. Remember, the truly strong must ultimately stand firm on their own."
Li Tongyuan nodded vigorously, feeling no longer confused.
He knew that from this moment on, his life would be completely separated from the Li family and move in a new direction.
The group of people walked towards Zi Tian's station, and their figures gradually disappeared into the night.
In the Li family meeting hall, Li Nei looked at the empty door and said to the elders with a solemn face, "Immediately send someone to investigate the origins of this group of people. Also, if Ji Family and Zhang Clan want to attack Li Tongyuan, let them stop it. We cannot afford to offend this great god!"
The elders responded one after another, their faces full of fear. What happened tonight was like a wake-up call, not everything was under their control.
The arena competition really attracted the evil dragon. If they don't pay attention, they will capsize. This is something they cannot accept.
