Chapter 343: I Want You Dead!
As soon as these words were spoken, Li Xiang looked as if struck by lightning, staring incredulously at Li Congxin.
“Father, you’re lying to me, aren’t you?”
“No, everything I said is true. At first, your mother and I didn’t like you, but after spending so much time together, we have developed feelings for you and regard you as our own!”
“Hehe…”
Zhou Tong couldn’t help but laugh.
“That was too deep for you two; you’ve been acting for so long that you began to believe it yourself!”
“Shut up!”
Li Xiang’s eyes turned blood red as he glared at Zhou Tong, only to be hit by a mental impact that cleared his gaze immediately.
“Anyone who dares to speak loudly in front of me has no right to do so!”
Zhou Tong said coldly, his aura imposing, causing those around to feel immense pressure.
“Truly remarkable, this man…”
Xiao Chen’s expression changed. Zhou Tong, clearly at the Semi-Sage level of cultivation, made even him, a Sage, feel the imminent danger.
“I have said what I know; now it’s your turn to honor the agreement and let us go!”
Li Congxin stared at Li Mu, speaking calmly. Since the other party had already sworn an oath to the Heavenly Dao, he didn’t believe this old fool would dare to break it.
“Of course, I will let you go!”
Li Mu nodded.
“But I will not let you go!”
Zhou Tong stepped forward, his killing intent surging forth, filling everyone with a terrifying sense of suffocation.
“You… you will go back on your word?”
Li Congxin trembled as he pointed at Li Mu, stammering.
“I see you are truly stupid; the oath of the Heavenly Dao is quite clear. Just because I, Li Mu, let you go does not mean any others will!”
“Go die!”
Zhou Tong raised his hand, preparing to kill them in one blow!
“Wait, I know the whereabouts of that child from fourteen years ago; he’s still alive. Kill me, and you’ll never see him again!”
At these words, Zhou Tong immediately halted, a playful and mocking expression on his face.
Seeing this scene, Li Congxin felt he had grasped the other party’s weakness and let out a long sigh of relief.
Though he was lying, there was no doubt that this was definitely Li Mu’s Achilles’ heel, something that could firmly control him.
“So what if you know?”
Li Mu couldn’t help but laugh.
“Hmph… I didn’t expect you to still be able to laugh. It seems you, as a grandfather, don’t really care about your grandson; so why should I worry? Just go ahead and kill me!”
He spoke as if victory was assured, appearing excessively carefree, as if he were certain they wouldn’t dare to act.
“Boom!!”
Zhou Tong unleashed a fierce killing intent, smashing his head with a single slap!
However, the next moment, beams of light gathered, reconstructing Li Congxin.
“The Golden Cicada Shell Talisman! I didn’t expect you to have something like this on you!”
Zhou Tong looked at the freshly revived Li Congxin, his smile devilish, instilling fear in him to the utmost degree.
“You dared to actually kill me!”
“Isn’t that what you wanted? I’m just accommodating you!”
Zhou Tong flicked his finger, shattering all the spirit talismans on him.
“Now it’s really over!”
“Wait… you can’t kill me. Don’t you really want that child?”
He was filled with intense fear and shouted loudly at Li Mu, not expecting the other party to take it seriously.
“Shut up; I have already found that child!”
This statement caused Li Congxin’s pupils to tremble intensely!
“It’s impossible! You must be lying to me; that child is already…”
He quickly clamped his mouth shut but exposed his ignorance of the truth.
“Hmph… If you’ve really found that child, then bring him out for me to see. Otherwise, you are just an old villain who doesn’t care about his grandson!”
“Smack!!”
Zhou Tong countered with a strike, smashing the side of Li Congxin’s face to pieces.
“I detest moral coercion the most!”
“Haha… even if you kill me, it’s useless. That old man would give up his grandson to take revenge; he’s not fit to be the head of the Li Family. Many will stab him in the back in the future, hahaha…”
“Fool!”
Li Mu shook his head, a trace of pity in his smile: “You’ve already met my little grandson!”
“Nonsense! How would I know? Make him stand out for everyone to see!”
“He’s far away yet right in front of you. Just a moment ago, he was slapping you in the face; how could you have forgotten him so quickly!”
At these words, both Li Congxin and Lin Ruoxii were struck as if by thunder, staring in shock at Zhou Tong.
“You two are well! It’s been fourteen years; I thought you were dead!”
Zhou Tong chuckled lightly, but in the eyes of the other party, he was as fearsome as a flood or a ferocious beast.
“This isn’t true! You should have been executed! How could you possibly survive, and grow so strong!”
This matter dealt a massive blow to the Li couple; fourteen years ago, they could easily dispose of that boy and even trade him for glory and wealth.
But now, the other party treated them like ants, ready to crush them at will!
“Go ask the King of Hell; of course, I’ll also inform the King of Hell to let you experience all the tortures in Hell!”
Zhou Tong raised his hand again, striking towards the Crown of Li Congxin’s skull. This blow could completely annihilate him, leaving not even a trace of his soul.
However, at that moment, something strange suddenly happened.
Li Xiang next to Li Congxin seemed to transform into another person, his eyes bursting with dazzling light. At the same time, a mysterious aura swirled around him!
“This aura…”
Zhou Tong was slightly taken aback, feeling an overwhelming familiarity, yet his strength did not waver.
But soon after, the aura from Li Xiang transformed into a barrier, blocking this decisive strike.
Crash!
Zhou Tong suddenly increased his strength, easily shattering the barrier. Just as he was about to make another move, a wooden hammer flew out from behind Li Xiang.
“It’s a Sacred Artifact! Everyone, get back!”
Zhou Tong suddenly shouted, and at that moment, the wooden hammer erupted with terrifying energy; it was a self-detonation of a Sacred Artifact!
“Eighty-One Seals, Space Barrier!”
Six barriers manifested out of thin air, completely sealing the wooden hammer from all sides.
Then everyone heard a deafening explosion.
“Boom!!”
The six barriers were directly shattered, and an overwhelming fireball spread nearly a thousand feet before finally slowly extinguishing.
If it hadn’t been for Zhou Tong’s intervention, everyone present would have likely suffered.
After the explosion, the figures of the three members of the Li Family had already vanished, as if they had evaporated into thin air.
“Don’t be surprised; they were taken away by a special power and have now returned to the Li Family.”
Zhou Tong’s spiritual power was constantly tracking them, and he understood the whereabouts of the three like the back of his hand.
This was simply wonderful; he could take them all in one go!
“Hey… you should know that power, right?”
Suddenly, the voice of the Imperial Weapon Mirror echoed in his mind.
“Indeed, I remember it vividly. I didn’t expect it to be them. I’m already prepared to start a massacre!”
