Chapter 123 The Ultimate Kill

"Clan leader, elders, and Grandfather Twenty-Three, your tea is served!"

Just then, a young child struggled to carry in a huge tea tray.

"By the way, let me introduce this little guy to you. He's the eldest of the Fa generation, named Fa Dong."

Xu Fadong had two small buns on his head, and his chubby round face looked like a little white dumpling from a distance. He wore a light blue and white spirit robe, and his eyes were clear and bright, making him look incredibly clever.

Xu Yuanlang was stunned when he saw Xu Fadong. Although it was hard to notice without careful observation, the little guy did indeed have fluctuations of spiritual power.

"You've already reached the first level of Qi Refining? This little guy's cultivation speed is amazing. I happen to have some magical artifacts and pills here. Here, Fa Dong will give them to you."

Xu Yuanlang took out two bottles of pills and a high-quality first-tier mid-stage magic sword and handed them to Xu Fadong. After seeing that the clan leader did not object, he excitedly accepted them and cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, just like an adult.

"Thank you, Grandpa Twenty-Three!"

"Your voice makes me feel so old."

The clan leader and the eldest elder laughed heartily. The little guy carefully put the magic sword and pills into his storage bag, then stood obediently to the side. Although he was young, he had a very composed demeanor.

"Chieftain, Fadong's talent is exceptional, otherwise you wouldn't have kept him by your side."

The clan chief couldn't suppress his smile, and finally looked at Xu Yuanlang and held up one finger.

"I hope you can keep this a secret from everyone else."

Xu Yuanlang quickly assured him, and only then did the clan leader slowly speak.

"Our Xu family has been based on Wuliang Mountain for over a thousand years, but none of our clansmen have been as talented as Fa Dong."

Xu Yuanlang had just picked up the spirit tea, ready to drink it, but after hearing the clan leader's words, he put down the teacup in shock.

No one has better talent than Xu Fadong? He looked at the tiny Xu Fadong again. You know, their Xu family has produced several cultivators with earth spiritual roots in the past, but the patriarch is still so confident. Could this kid have a heaven spiritual root? Wouldn't he definitely be able to achieve Foundation Establishment?

The clan chief looked unsurprised, while the elder beside him nodded helplessly.

"I asked the clan chief several times, but he refused to tell me directly, only saying that Dong's talent was even better than we imagined."

"Yes, even now I have to say that Fatton's talent is far greater than you can imagine."

Better than I imagined? For a moment, Xu Yuanlang dared not think any further; he only felt his heart pounding much faster.

"Alright, no need to ask anymore. Yuan Lang, you and Fa Dong are definitely the hope for the rise of our Xu family and for us to stand tall in the cultivation world."

At this moment, Xu Yuanlang didn't quite feel the reality of it, since one of them was still a child and the other was just a Qi Refining Realm cultivator.

"Clan leader, Fa Dong will definitely cultivate diligently from now on."

At this moment, Xu Fadong, whose voice was still that of a child, spoke loudly, and the clan chief laughed heartily.

"well!"

After discussing some matters, Xu Yuanlang took his leave, as he needed to treat his injuries as soon as possible.

After leaving the room, he let out a heavy sigh of relief, feeling much lighter. He looked up at the sky, where the sky was just right.

At this moment, a dark cloud hung over the Li family hall. Upon returning to the family, Li Luofang immediately summoned all the senior members of the Li family and stared at everyone with an icy expression.

"Snapped!"

The exquisite teacup shattered, and scalding hot tea splashed out, landing on the Li family members. Yet, no one dared to dodge, and they didn't even dare to breathe heavily.

"Zhifeng, how much damage has the family suffered?"

"A total of twenty-three people were lost, including Brother Zhixin, who had a chance to achieve Foundation Establishment, and... and..."

When he finished speaking, Li Zhifeng immediately became hesitant and looked at Li Luofang with some concern.

"In my opinion, Luo Mao is dead. He was killed by Xu Yuanlang, a Qi Refining cultivator from the Xu family!"

In addition, the family lost two high-grade spiritual veins, one mid-grade spiritual vein, and a mine.

Wow!

The entire audience erupted in uproar. The cultivators present didn't seem to care much about the losses; their focus was entirely on the first half of the sentence. Even Li Zhifeng found it hard to believe, thinking that his father had made a mistake.

"How could the Grand Elder die at the hands of a Qi Refining cultivator? That's impossible!"

"I also think it's impossible. Even if the Grand Elder does nothing, it's impossible for a Qi Refining cultivator to leave any marks on him."

They knew all too well how terrifying Foundation Establishment cultivators were, so they disregarded the occasion and couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

"Luo Mao was first ambushed and seriously injured by Dian Mengxiong. In order to recover his strength, he had to switch to cultivating demonic techniques. The spiritual power and demonic power clashed, which is why he was killed by the Qi Refining cultivator."

"Disgrace! This is a great disgrace to our Li family! Luo Jing, from this day forward, do everything in your power to find information about this person!"

"I will make sure every member of the clan remembers Xu Yuanlang's face forever. You must all remember that an elder died at this man's hands. In the future, our Li family will be a laughingstock in the entire cultivation world. This disgrace can only be washed away with this guy's life."

Li Luofang's eyes swept fiercely over the crowd. Only after seeing the murderous look in the eyes of the Li family's higher-ups did he nod in slight satisfaction.

"yes!"

The once high-spirited Li Luojing now showed a hint of pain on his face. Li Luofang walked to his side and said in a low voice.

"Luo Jing, no one expected that old bastard Dian Mengxiong would self-destruct his magic sword, let alone that the Grand Elder was still alive at the time. It's not your fault; even I would have made the same judgment back then."

Li Luo nodded in surprise. Seeing his expression, Li Luo realized that he wouldn't be able to get out of this situation anytime soon, and immediately spoke loudly to another Foundation Establishment cultivator in his family.

"Zhinian, you and Luojing are both outstanding young talents in our Li family. This time, I'm entrusting you two with an important task."

Li Zhinian was an extremely ordinary-looking cultivator. Although he was younger than Li Luojing in terms of seniority, he was older than him, which was normal in Foundation Establishment families.

"Chieftain, please speak!"

"Xu Yuanlang's cultivation has reached the ninth level of Qi Refining; he is quite powerful. If you two have the opportunity in the future, you can abandon all other missions, but he must die!"

Li Luo looked up in surprise, the sadness in her eyes vanished, replaced by a fleeting glint of fierceness.

"yes!"

Issuing a kill order against a Qi Refining cultivator to two Foundation Establishment cultivators is unprecedented in the Li family's thousand-year history, demonstrating the deep hatred within the Li family.

"Zhifeng, now that Luo Mao is gone, the family is short-handed. This time, you should go into seclusion and try to establish your foundation."

Li Zhifeng was taken aback. In the past, his father would avoid him, but now he had given him the opportunity.

"Father, everyone..."

"For the sake of the family, the clansmen will understand."
