The Heaven-Chosen Divine Sect's Scheme

"Fellow Daoist has come to seek his kin. Since that is so, we shall take our leave."

Seeing Li Xinri fly into the city, shouting at the top of his lungs, the three great powers wore expressions of utter disgust. Together, they bowed to Li Xinnian, and their projections scattered like smoke.

Watching Li Xinri shout and glare furiously at the three great powers, Li Xinnian could tell that something was amiss. His younger cousin Li Xinri was famous for being bold and reckless, but Li Xinnian knew that the boy was actually meticulous as a hair, understood when to advance and retreat, and knew whom he could provoke and whom he could not.

Especially that woman among the three great powers—she seemed to harbor some ill intent.

After some thought, his true body remained within Peerless Hall, while only his projection entered the city.

In midair, the sight of Li Xinri made Li Xinnian roll his eyes. They had not seen each other for years. Li Xinri had spent all that time fooling around outside, and now he was dressed in such a flamboyant fashion that he practically looked like a flowering branch. His robe, embroidered entirely in gold thread, glittered beneath the sun, and he was decked head to toe in gold and jade with shameless vulgarity.

Li Xinnian shot him a stern sidelong glance. "Xinri, what sort of scene are you making?"

He had just been shouting fiercely, yet now that his elder cousin was truly beside him, memories of past beatings surged up. Li Xinri immediately straightened his posture. "Xinri greets Elder Cousin. Since Elder Cousin has arrived, I merely borrowed your prestige to frighten those three old thieves."

"Oh?" Li Xinnian's interest was piqued.

Li Xinri viciously pointed at a Spirit Boat within the city.
