Chapter 90 The Liu Family

The next chapter is even more exciting: Chapter 90, The Liu Family, we look forward to your visit.

Liu Mei's body trembled, and her eyes instantly lit up with surprise.

"Master...you, you really want to..."

"Now that you have become a disciple of my sect, you are a member of the Tai Xuan Sword Sect. Your family is naturally under the protection of my sect. How dare you, a mere Yang family, threaten to exterminate your entire clan?"

Yesterday, he paused, a cold smile playing on his lips:

"Perfect timing! My cultivation has improved recently, and I was just looking for someone to test my skills against."

Upon hearing this, Liu Mei trembled with excitement.

She knelt down with a thud and kowtowed three times to Zhou Tian.

"Disciple...disciple thanks Master for your great kindness! In this life, I am willing to go through fire and water for Master, even unto death!"

Zhou Tian reached out to support her, and a gentle spiritual force lifted her up.

Zhou Tian's expression was extremely calm at this moment.

The mere Yang family?

Zhou Tian was not taken seriously.

Zhou Tian snorted coldly and said no more.

He reached out and embraced Liu Mei's slender waist, his figure transforming into a streak of light as he sped straight towards the gates of the Tai Xuan Sword Sect.

Liu Mei felt the wind whistling past her ears and the scenery rushing past her eyes.

She was held firmly in Zhou Tian's arms, and the vast spiritual power enveloped her completely, giving her an unprecedented sense of security.

"Master..."

She looked up at Zhou Tian's angular profile, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

Zhou Tian glanced down at her and said calmly, "Hold me tight."

Before he finished speaking, he increased his speed by another three points, transforming into a blurry figure that was difficult to see with the naked eye, tearing through the sky and speeding towards the Central Plains.

How terrifying is the speed of a cultivator in the Void Refinement stage traveling at full speed?

In less than half a day, the two had traveled tens of thousands of miles and arrived in Zhongzhou.

......

Zhongzhou, Qingzhou City, Liu Family Mansion.

The atmosphere in the reception room was so heavy it was almost palpable.

On the right, in the main seat, sat a middle-aged man dressed in a dark robe.

His face was resolute, his eyes were like lightning, and his aura was as solid as a mountain, indicating that he had already reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage.

It was Liu Yilong, the head of the Liu family.

Seated beside him were the elders of the Liu family.

Although these elders were advanced in years, each of them possessed considerable strength, with the lowest being at the late stage of Qi Refining, and three of them even reaching the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

At this moment, their expressions were solemn, and their gazes were all turned to the left side of the living room.

On the left-hand side, a young man in a brocade robe leaned back in his chair, a faint, mocking smile on his face.

He was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with a handsome face, but his slightly upturned eyes revealed undisguised contempt and arrogance.

This man was Liu Mei's fiancé, from another prominent family in Qingzhou City.

Li Huo, the eldest son of the Li family.

Behind Li Huo stood a man in a black robe.

The person was completely shrouded in a wide black robe, making it impossible to see their face clearly; only a pair of cold, numb eyes were visible.

His aura was restrained, but the occasional glimpse of his oppressive aura made the elders in the early stages of Foundation Establishment present feel uneasy.

"Master Liu,"

"I have personally come to your door today, and I have already shown my sincerity. This top-grade storage ring contains five thousand spirit stones, three Yellow-rank cultivation techniques, one Profound-rank cultivation technique, and three Foundation Establishment Pills."

Li Huo toyed with a pure white storage ring in his hand, which had a faint shimmering light, his tone lazy yet carrying an undeniable pressure.

He paused, then gently placed the storage ring on the coffee table beside him, making a soft "tap" sound.

"As long as Liu Mei marries into my Li family, these will all be Liu family's betrothal gifts."

As soon as he finished speaking, the breathing of several elders in the hall quickened.

A top-grade storage ring!

The storage ring itself is worth tens of thousands of spirit stones, not to mention the resources stored inside.

Five thousand spirit stones are enough to support the entire Liu family for a year.

That Xuan-rank cultivation technique is a family treasure that the Liu family currently does not possess!

As for Foundation Establishment Pills... those are precious pills that can increase the probability of Foundation Establishment by 30% for cultivators at the peak of Qi Refining. One pill is priceless, let alone three.

Liu Yilong's gaze swept over the storage ring, and his pupils contracted slightly.

But he quickly regained his composure and slowly shook his head.

"Young Master Li, it's not that I'm unwilling. It's just that my daughter Mei'er has already joined the Taiqing Sect, and as her father, I really can't make the decision about her marriage."

"The Taiqing Sect?"

Li Huo chuckled as if he had heard a joke.

"Patriarch Liu, your information is far too outdated."

He leaned forward slightly, his eyes filled with even more mockery.

"Don't you know that the Taiqing Sect... was wiped out half a month ago?"

"What?!"

Liu Yilong suddenly stood up, his face draining of all color.

The elders in the hall all changed color, and exclamations arose from all sides.

"The Taiqing Sect was wiped out? How is that possible!"

"That's the largest sect in Qingzhou, with a Nascent Soul ancestor in charge. How could they be destroyed so easily?"

"Young Master Li, is this true?"

Liu Yilong stared intently at Li Huo, his voice trembling.

"Young Master Li, this matter... is not something to joke about."

"joke?"

Li Huo sneered, took out a recording jade slip from his pocket, and casually tossed it to Liu Yilong.

"See for yourself."

Liu Yilong took the jade slip and infused it with spiritual power.

Instantly, a series of horrific scenes flashed through his mind.
