Chapter 354 - 354 Cheng Yiyi
Chapter 354: Chapter 354 Cheng Yiyi
Everyone’s hearts were already filled with a strong interest in this masked figure, Li Xiaoyao.
People always admire the strong, and especially since Li Xiaoyao was so young.
The tales of Li Xiaoyao’s valiant exploits had spread among the younger generation of the Li Family, and almost everyone knew there was a genius cultivator who might be the son of the family head.
In a certain room on the second floor, Xie Nan was engaged in an important conversation with several elders.
“This child must not be spared!” Murderous intent flickered in her almond-shaped eyes. Li Xiaoyao’s emergence had made Xie Nan feel threatened.
No matter if Li Xiaoyao was the son of the family head or not, he had to die.
The future of the Li Family must belong to her own son, not to a Li Xiaoyao who had popped up out of nowhere.
“That may be difficult,” said the elder to the left. “The Third Elder has spoken, if we make a move, we’ll likely not escape his punishment.”
“What is Li Yiming anyway?” Xie Nan said with disdain. “Don’t mind him. Whatever happens, I’ll take the blame.”
The several elders were silent, and after a long while, someone spoke up. “I have an idea.”
“Oh? Speak.”
The elder gave a faint smile and said, “We can look into it and see if this Li Xiaoyao has any enemies. To kill a person, we need not act personally; killing by borrowing another’s hand is the best.”
“Good, let’s do that.” Xie Nan’s eyes lit up, immediately followed by a dangerous curve of her thin lips, her words laced with a killing intent, “He must die before he returns to the Li Family!”
…
In the military district compound of Lu Province, villa number one.
“Ah~”
Cheng Dongliang let out a light sigh, unable to hide the regret in his voice.
He was one of the first to hear of Li Xiaoyao’s safe escape from the ancient tomb, and to tell the truth, he had no faith in Li Xiaoyao from the start.
Yet, not only had Li Xiaoyao escaped, but he had also killed a cultivator of the Golden Core Realm, Xie Min!
When he first received this news, Cheng Dongliang was so shocked that it took a long time for him to recover his senses.
Being able to kill a Golden Core Realm cultivator indicated that Li Xiaoyao’s cultivation level was at least at the Golden Core Realm as well.
He had gone through a teleportation array, no one knew where, but one thing was certain: Li Xiaoyao had obtained an incredibly powerful treasure that allowed him to instantly elevate his strength.
The stronger Li Xiaoyao was, the greater the benefit to his Cheng Family.
But before he could even savor the good news, he saw Li Shisan holding a press conference, live broadcasted.
In that live broadcast, when Cheng Dongliang learned that Li Xiaoyao was actually a member of the Li Family from Xuan Country, he was so shocked that his jaw nearly dropped.
Not only that, Li Xiaoyao was also the son of the Li Family head.
What does that mean?
The Crown Prince of the Li Family, one of the Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country!
With that status, he could virtually go anywhere in Xuan Country unchallenged.
Just as Cheng Dongliang thought he had clung to a mighty leg, Li Xiaoyao suddenly descended from the sky and, using an extremely terrifying technique, controlled a flying sword to decapitate Cheng Dongliang.
Afterwards, Cheng Dongliang contemplated and roughly speculated the following points.
First, Li Xiaoyao might not have much connection with the Li Family.
As for what Li Shisan said, it couldn’t be taken at face value; he likely said those things in an attempt to dispel Li Xiaoyao’s intent to kill him.
Second, Li Xiaoyao had stirred up trouble, big trouble.
That’s why he felt such regret. Li Xiaoyao clearly could have grown into a towering tree, advancing far on the path of cultivators, but he insisted on provoking the Li Family, ruining a bright future.
Gentlemen seek revenge, a decade is not too late. Why the rush to settle scores immediately?
“Buzz~”
The phone in front of him suddenly vibrated. Cheng Dongliang lowered his head to glance at it and to his surprise, it was Cheng Yiyi, who hadn’t contacted him for a long time, calling. @@novelbin@@
…
The Canglang Unit was among the top five special forces in the ten military regions of Xuan Country. Soldiers in this unit were all formidable martial artists or cultivators, the true cutting edge of the nation.
To enter the Canglang Unit, Cheng Yiyi endured untold hardships and, after numerous failures, she finally succeeded and became the second female member of the unit.
The current Cheng Yiyi had elevated her cultivation level from the fifth layer of the Qi-Training Mirror when she first joined the unit, to the seventh layer.
In just a few short months, to make continuous breakthroughs across two levels was a cultivation talent that was rare, even among the formidable members of the Canglang Unit.
Cheng Yiyi was very popular in the Canglang Unit. Firstly, because of her own efforts, and secondly, because she was a great beauty.
In places like the military, especially in special forces like Canglang, the members usually had no spare time beyond training to go out and flirt.
There’s an old saying: Three years in the military, even a sow looks like a beauty.
All of a sudden, a great beauty joined the unit, and these Canglang members buzzed around Cheng Yiyi every day like flies.
It must be admitted that these members were all excellent, one in ten thousand talents.
Yet for some reason, Cheng Yiyi could never make room in her heart for anyone else. Whenever someone expressed love towards her, she would subconsciously compare them with Li Xiaoyao.
At such times, Cheng Yiyi would remind herself that such thoughts were impermissible.
She had come to the Canglang Unit with great difficulty, all for the sake of revenge, to kill Li Xiaoyao.
Every time she thought of that rainy night, how Li Xiaoyao, like a crazed beast, had pinned her down on the bed, savagely tearing at her clothes, she would feel a surge of humiliation in her heart.
“Holy shit, guys, come look at this news—it’s insane,” a man built like an ox in the indoor gym shouted as he looked at the computer screen.
“What’s up?”
Hearing the shouting, the training members walked over, all except Cheng Yiyi, who continued with her exercises, without any distraction.
The man stared at the computer screen, reading out the news: “Ling City’s top philanthropist—Li Xiaoyao—appeared from nowhere, wielding his sword and fiercely killing the Executive President of Li Corporation in Lu Province, Li Shisan!”
“Li Xiaoyao? Who’s that? Never heard of him,” someone remarked.
“Who cares who he is? The point is, he killed Li Shisan!”
Someone who hadn’t heard of Li Shisan asked, “Who is Li Shisan?”
“Holy crap, you don’t know Li Shisan? Have you ever heard of the Li Family from one of the Eight Great Sects in Xuan Country? Li Shisan is one of the Li Family, and it’s said his cultivation level had reached the eighth rank of the Spirit Cultivation Realm!”
On hearing this, the team members’ eyes widened: “The eighth rank of the Spirit Cultivation Realm? For real? Then that Li Xiaoyao who killed him must be even more powerful, right?”
“Definitely! And it’s said that he descended from the sky. Holy shit, can he fly?”
“Fake news, right? How can there be such news stories?”
“Xuan Country does a good job keeping secrets about cultivators; ordinary people can’t come in contact with that stuff. This news must be fake, just clickbait,” someone scoffed.
“Hey, there’s even a video. Let’s watch it,” the man said as he opened the video. Everyone fell silent, their attention focused on the screen.
Cheng Yiyi, not knowing when, had also walked over, standing to the side with her beautiful eyes locked onto the screen.
