It was like a bullet had grazed the tip of his nose, leaving him able to smell the gunpowder.
A narrow brush with danger.
And enormous danger at that.
Again, whatever the Li Family had provoked this time was no ordinary thing. More importantly, it seemed he really had provoked the Li Family Ancestral Hall himself.
If it came looking for him again...
What would he do?
I'm panicking I'm panicking this time I'm really panicking so badly I don't even have punctuation anymore.
[Ascension Stockade] was terrifying, certainly, but Buddhist and Daoist masters, along with experts from the former imperial court, had suppressed it with everything they had. He couldn't come into contact with [Ascension Stockade], and it wasn't something he had to handle. This time, though, Li Family Ancestral Hall didn't seem to have anything suppressing it.
It seemed quite free.
If it decided to make a big move, he would be the first to take the hit.
For the first time, Lin Feng appreciated the benefits of rituals.
It was like a battle between computer hackers.
The ritual was the compromised machine he routed his connection through.
His previous opponents had been easy to handle. This time, Lin Feng had finally encountered some genuine experts. They had knocked out his proxy machine, yet hadn't come knocking on his door. Of course, that might also have been because they hadn't fully awakened.
Had he really dealt with Li Family Ancestral Hall?
No.
Lin Feng felt that the Li Family Ancestral Hall's "true body" still existed. If he couldn't confront it head-on, he could only eliminate the mediums connecting it to the world. In other words, he needed to make everyone forget Li Family Ancestral Hall existed and erase it from all their memories.
This was a tough one.
