Chapter 350: The Teenage Demon in Human Skin Lands in Central Continent
“Will it work?”
Zhou Tong’s eyes gleamed brightly as he barely contained his excitement while asking.
“Isn’t that a foolish question? I, the peak of weapons and the answer to an Imperial Weapon, how could I not handle such a trivial matter!”
The Imperial Weapon Mirror arrogantly replied, “I’ve not only analyzed its principle but also improved it to make it even more powerful!”
“Not only is the striking range further, the speed faster, and the power greater, but its flight trajectory is also bizarre and unpredictable. Unless the opponent has a Holy Array for protection, it will be impossible to intercept.”
“Fantastic!”
Zhou Tong praised, “However, I also have an idea!”
As he spoke slowly, “If we could equip a few ninth-grade Spirit Talismans at the front of the Sacred Forbidden Weapon, making them release when nearing the target, wouldn’t that be better?”
“You, young man!”
The voices of the Four Annihilators of the 麟 suddenly became extraordinarily excited.
“What a genius!”
“The both of us are evenly matched!”
“Haha…”
One man and one mirror emitted a somewhat perverted laughter in the air.
“However, to create the Sacred Forbidden Weapon will require quite a few high-grade materials, and if it can only be used once, it would be rather a pity.”
After the joy, the mirror’s voice deepened.
“I’ve studied the art of Tool/Weapon Creation and know that some high-grade materials can be replaced with things of the same level. I wonder if Sage bones would work?”
Zhou Tong had a bold idea and spoke it out without hesitation.
“Of course they can; the remains of Sages contain the power of laws and are unbreakable. They are excellent materials for weapon creation. However, obtaining such a thing is not easy!”
“I know where the Profound Sky Hall’s ancestral tomb is!”
Upon hearing these words, the Four Annihilators of the 麟 Mirror were indeed stunned.
“You really make me like you!”
…
With a loud sound!
The sound of a slap echoed through the great hall of the Li Family in Central Continent!
“You wretch!”
A Sage warrior in blue robes looked down from a high position, overlooking Li Congxin and Lin Ruoxii.
Clearly imprinted on the face of the esteemed Li Family Patriarch was the mark of a strong slap.
Obviously, moments before, his face had harshly struck the other’s palm.
The Profound Sky Hall warrior angrily cursed: “I gave you three Sacred Forbidden Weapons, and yet you could not destroy the You Family! What good are you for?”
“Master, please calm down!”
Li Congxin quickly bowed his head, saying, “Indeed, Li Mu’s grandson is too sinister. I am willing to guess that the reason the Sacred Forbidden Weapons were intercepted was entirely the work of that boy!”
“Nonsense! Do you think I would believe your lies? No matter how talented he is, he’s still just a minor kid! How could a mere child possess such prowess!”
With a thunderous sound, the messenger’s body unleashed a formidable Sage might, causing the Li couple to shrink with fear.
“Today, you two have failed in your mission. We should have annihilated all of you!”
Upon hearing this, the two trembled violently. However, the speaker then changed tone, glancing toward Li Xiang standing beside them.
“But considering your merit in raising this child, we will temporarily spare your lives!”
“Thank you, Master Messenger for your compassion!”
The two greatly relieved, immediately bowed their heads in gratitude. Only Li Xiang, standing by, wore an arrogant smile.
“Fortunately for this family that there is me. From now on, the entire Li family must heed my commands.”
This was what he thought in his heart. When looking at Lin Ruoxii and Li Congxin, contempt flooded his eyes, and his attitude became haughty.
He viewed these two weaklings as no longer worthy to be his parents. To have adopted him was already a karmic blessing from their previous life.
Only a colossal powerhouse like the Profound Sky Hall was worthy of being his home.
“May the Messenger guide us. What is the origin of this child? Why did you insist on having our couple adopt him?”
Lin Ruoxii dared to ask boldly. However, before she could finish, she received a heavy slap.
“You cheap woman, is there anything that you are allowed to inquire about? Dare to speak out again, and I will extract your soul and refine it for forty-nine days, until you are completely annihilated!”
Lin Ruoxii was frightened to the point of losing her composure. She didn’t even dare to scream, only trembling as she bowed her head, shame filling her eyes.
Thinking of herself as the daughter of the Lin family and the Lady of the Li family, she was undoubtedly a very prestigious existence. Why should she be reduced to being a servant to others, and for twenty years no less!
She was aggrieved!
At this moment, the Li family guards burst in, making a great commotion.
“Master, trouble! Under the leadership of that youth, the You family, the Zhong family, the Imperial Family, and many factions, large and small, are uniting to converge directly on our position!”
“What did you say?”
Li Congxin had forgotten all decorum, instantly jumping up, his face turning deathly pale.
He hadn’t imagined the enemy would react so quickly. His attempt at a sneak attack failed, instead drawing a hornet’s nest upon himself, facing a certain death situation.
The current Li family had no Sage warrior and had also lost several Sacred Artifacts. There was absolutely no way to resist this coalition!
“Master, what should we do? Should we perhaps retreat first for safety?”
Li Congxin was completely panic-stricken, but he didn’t see the envoy of the Profound Sky Hall brighten, as if hearing wonderful news.
“What are you scared of? With us here, how much of a storm can that little fellow stir up?”
Hearing this, the Li household gained some reassurance, given the Profound Sky Hall’s power, surely handling these few people should still be more than enough.
“Spread my command; set up your formations and block these forces immediately. I shall now return to the Profound Sky Hall to gather the Sages and set up the ultimate array here.”
“That way, even if they do manage to approach this place, they will have only one outcome—death!”
The envoy declared confidently, making Li Congxin feel it feasible but still slightly hesitant.
“Is this reliable?”
“Reliable? Get rid of the ‘hmm.’ If we can’t handle such a group of small fry, might as well let others dig up the Profound Sky Hall’s ancestral tomb!”
The envoy in blue disdainfully said and then disappeared from the sight of everyone with a single step.
“My lord, how will we withstand these people during this time?”
Lin Ruoxii asked anxiously. Facing such a crisis, she could never maintain her composure.
“Madam, you contact the Lin Family, preparing them for assistance whenever needed. I will immediately send people to reach out to other factions to prepare for a joint defense.”
“Who do you plan to contact?” Lin Ruoxii asked further.
“Don’t worry. There are plenty of hidden allies out there. In the south, there are the Xuanwu Tribe’s clans, and in the north, there are Mountain Ghost tribes. These races are extremely powerful. Not only are they steeped in strength, but it’s rumored they also have Sage warriors.”
“Will they be willing to help us?”
“Certainly, as long as we give them enough rewards…”
Li Congxin spoke with conviction, “Beyond that, we must make a second contingency plan—we must gain control over public opinion and instill fear of that boy in everyone!”
“And how?”
“Simple. From now on, make it known to all the lands: The teenage demon in human skin has landed in Central Continent!”
