Chapter 319: This Isn’t a Slap in the Face, But Seizing Wealth!
When some are kissing, naturally, some are getting beaten!
The pressure from the Black Coffin slowly dissipated, leaving a massive pit on the arena.
Everyone thought Li San had been evaporated, but the outcome was unexpectedly different.
He slowly crawled out of the pit, his entire face torn apart, looking like a wicked ghost from hell, both hideous and sorrowful!
“How is this possible? How did he survive!”
Everyone was filled with confusion; that black coffin could certainly harm a Sage. For a mere Semi-Sage at the fourth level to remain intact was already a miracle, let alone being alive!
“Crack!” “Crack!” “Crack!”
With the sound of three shattering noises, everyone suddenly realized.
The reason this kid could survive was that he had actively sacrificed three pieces of Semi-Sacred Artifacts!
Upon witnessing this scene, the members of the Li Family looked as if they had seen a ghost, especially Li Congxin, who fainted yet again!
Although Semi-Sages are precious, three pieces of Semi-Sacred Artifacts are even more valuable.
From a profit-oriented perspective, this was a substantial loss for the Li Family, and a bloody one at that!
“Li San… why don’t you just die? How dare you sacrifice the family’s treasures to save yourself? Are you still the most loyal dog of the Li Family?”
Li Xiang cursed directly: “Kneel down and bark like a dog! Don’t get up without my command, or I’ll make sure you die without a proper grave!”
As soon as these words were spoken, intense humiliation flashed across Li San’s eyes along with a barely perceptible killing intent.
“What are you still dawdling for? Didn’t you hear me tell you to kneel?”
Li Xiang was furious and casually picked up a piece of trash from the side and threw it at Li San, hitting him!
“You brat, you’ve gone too far!”
Even Li Mu couldn’t bear it any longer, glaring coldly, causing Li Xiang to shiver.
“What are you pretending to be high and mighty for? I’m just dealing with a dog, what do you have to say about it!”
“Oh! I just remembered, even you are a dog of the Li Family, you must be feeling the plight of rabbits and foxes, right? Hahaha!”
Before he finished speaking, the old man suddenly struck out, slapping him from a distance!
With a loud smack!
Although the Semi-Sage’s strike was somewhat restrained, it still flattened half of Li Xiang’s face, leaving his bones shattered, one eye burst, and his appearance was tragically grim!
“Ahhh… my eye, my face!! My face is ruined!”
“Xiang’er!!”
Lin Ruoxii let out a scream like a hen whose egg had been stolen, feeling as if the sky had collapsed!
“Don’t worry, Grandma has a Facial Reconstruction Pill that can ensure you’re fine!”
Seeing this, Old Lady Lin rushed over, crawling as she fed the pill to Li Xiang, finally stopping his wailing!
“Mother, Grandma, you have to avenge me! I want that old dog to regret it for life!”
“No need for you to say!”
Old Lady Lin and Lin Ruoxii simultaneously looked at Li Mu, their eyes filled with deep resentment.
“This old dog killed on purpose; what should we do about it?”
“What intentional injury? This was an accidental injury, alright!”
An Imperial Official jumped out again, his face a mask of indifference.
“Accidental injury? Look closely with your eyes wide open!”
Old Lady Lin completely exploded. “They were so far apart, and the direction was wrong, how could it possibly be accidental!”
“What’s so strange about that? The old man of the Li Family is getting older; having a bit of blurry vision and shaky hands is quite normal, isn’t it? You old hag, weren’t you just sitting with your butt in the air and knocked out your old teeth!”
Being publicly ridiculed, Old Lady Lin almost spat blood, feeling dizzy.
“Grandma… you have to avenge me, or I won’t be satisfied!”
Li Xiang cried out with a mournful face, continuing to fan the flames.
“Alright, alright, since this group of dog servants doesn’t understand, let me take action myself and vent for my grandson!”
She tossed aside her cane and was about to raise her arm to call out, when the Imperial Official slapped her across the face!
“Silence is prohibited in a solemn place! Whoever dares to disrupt the assessment scene, I will not spare them!”
“How dare you slap me and call yourself ‘I’ in front of me!”
Old Lady Lin said in disbelief, but saw that the other party was staring at her face, looking intoxicated, which made her body tense up immediately.
“You little brat must be interested in… beasts!”
“You’re the beast, and an old beast at that!”
The Imperial Official felt humiliated; in his eyes, her face was not a face, but a merit, a future of wealth and honor. He seemed to see a promotion beckoning to him!
“You little beast, who are you cursing? I’ll kill you!”
When had Old Lady Lin ever suffered like this today? Unable to endure any longer, she charged in anger!
“Haah!”
The official took a deep breath, almost fainting from happiness, but at the crucial moment he steadied himself!
This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; if missed, it would be a lifelong regret!
“Slap slap slap slap…”
He swung his palm wildly, completely going crazy, muttering to himself.
“These slaps are for protection, this slap promotes ranks, this slap enfeoffs a noble title with thirty thousand households…”
