Chapter 352: The Head of the Li Clan is Tall and Sturdy!
Hearing this, Li Congxin was slightly taken aback, then he laughed.
“Believe it or not, the Holy King wishes for us to find a suitable heir.”
“Have you found one?” Yao Hai asked.
“How is that possible?”
Li Congxin said somewhat helplessly, “According to our ancestors, this Holy King wants us to find a young strong warrior who has lived a second life and is half a foot in the Void Self Realm. Do you think that’s possible?”
“Hehe…”
The Old Man suddenly couldn’t help but laugh, sending a chill down Li Congxin’s spine.
“What are you laughing at?”
“It’s nothing, I just thought of something interesting.”
Yao Hai said, “Speaking of which, I happen to know someone like that. Should I introduce him to you?”
Upon hearing this, Li Congxin’s eyes immediately widened.
“As expected of the Mountain Ghost Clan, truly a land of talents. If you can help me fulfill the pact, that would be the best!”
“Hehe…”
Yao Hai couldn’t hold back again, thinking to himself, “He still has to thank me!”
“What are you laughing at now?!”
“Li Clan Head, I wasn’t laughing just now. I’m professionally trained and usually don’t laugh randomly unless I can’t help it!”
“What a problem!”
Li Congxin couldn’t help but complain in his heart, yet he still wore a smile on his face as he continued, “Originally, relying solely on this trump card would eliminate external threats, but it hasn’t been used in a long time. I fear there might be unexpected issues, so I prepared a second insurance policy!”
“Let’s hear it!”
Lan Tian tightened his grip on his spear and spoke in a somewhat deep voice.
“Have you heard of the Profound Sky Hall?”
Li Congxin asked mysteriously.
“I have heard of it…”
Yao Hai’s expression darkened. Being from the Mountain Ghost Clan and having followed the Human Race Great Emperor in the past, he naturally knew what the Profound Sky Hall was.
He never expected they would align with the enemies of the Ruler. It truly reached new lows.
Li Congxin didn’t notice his discomfort and continued, “It won’t be long before the strong warriors of the Profound Sky Hall descend here and lay down extermination formations. Even if they can break through the first barrier, they definitely won’t surpass the second!”
“That’s really splendid!”
Yao Hai said, “But I still feel something is missing. I have a better idea.”
“Quickly tell me!” Li Congxin was eager, secretly thinking that he truly found the right ally!
“You know, our Mountain Ghost Clan is best at manipulating laws. As long as we set up a custom formation here, even if those people make it past the second barrier, they will definitely not get through the third!”
“That’s excellent, that’s excellent indeed! Please, old sir, do not delay for even a moment; start immediately.”
“Rest assured, I have long been prepared.”
Yao Hai gently clapped his hands, and the space behind him cracked open, revealing several more members of the Mountain Ghost Clan.
“What a marvelous method!”
Li Congxin’s pupils contracted. The space of this secret chamber was incredibly solid. Even though the door had been opened, it was nearly impossible for anyone to tear open the space and reach here.
Yet, the experts of the Mountain Ghost Clan managed to do it effortlessly, which was truly impressive.
“Thank you for your trust, Li Clan Head. In that case, I will begin work first.”
“Feel free. This is my identity token. With this token in hand, you can move freely within the Li Clan without any hindrance!”
Li Congxin did not hesitate to hand over his authority. He knew that only absolute trust could earn an ally’s friendship.
Moreover, given the strength of the Mountain Ghost Clan, they likely wouldn’t plot against him, which is why he was so bold.
“What about us?”
Ye Xingchen pointed to himself, seemingly vying for the opportunity to shine.
Hearing this, Li Congxin bowed to him again and quickly said, “I have long heard that the Xuanwu Clan is best at defense. As long as you set up the Xuanwu Great Formation, it can even withstand attacks from several Sage-level warriors. I would like to ask you to go and intercept that group!”
“You are not wrong in what you said.”
Ye Xingchen pondered, “The Xuanwu Great Formation is indeed powerful, but to set it up, we need more manpower. Unfortunately, I haven’t brought enough people this time, and inviting more will likely take too long!”
“You don’t need to worry about that!”
Li Congxin quickly waved his hand and handed another token to Ye Xingchen.
“What is this…?”
“This is the Li Clan’s token for mobilizing troops. It can command the strong warriors of the Li Clan, as well as mobilize forces that are friendly with the Li Clan.”
“In recent years, our family has accumulated a fair amount of favor due to weapon crafting. With this token, we can definitely organize a formidable resistance army. I now entrust it to you!”
Upon hearing this, Ye Xingchen looked deeply moved.
“Thank you for your trust, Ye will certainly respond wholeheartedly and not fail your expectations!”
“I will do the same!” Yao Hai nodded, equally excited.
“Clan Head Ye, high!”
“Clan Head Yao, sturdy!”
Li Congxin thanked them with a bow.
“Li Clan Head is tall and sturdy!” The other two returned the gesture, truly complementing each other.
…
“As expected of the clan head; everything was arranged so clearly, truly seamless.”
Watching the two major forces leave, Li Congxin felt immensely proud.
With the internal affairs handed to the Mountain Ghost Clan and the external threats to the Xuanwu Clan, plus the support from the Profound Sky Hall, he felt assured for life!
Time was pressing, so he didn’t strictly investigate the backgrounds of these two families and felt it was entirely unnecessary.
Even if the Xuanwu Clan couldn’t be relied upon, there was still the Mountain Ghost Clan. And even if the Mountain Ghost Clan also fell short, wasn’t there still the Profound Sky Hall?
If all three clans couldn’t be relied upon, then he would rather believe that Zhou Tong would come to dig up his ancestral grave today!
…
At this moment, in the space crevice high above the sky, the location of the Profound Sky Hall was hidden.
The blue-robed strong warrior who had been so arrogant at the Li Clan now knelt before a higher-up.
“Reporting to the Elder, the Fortune Star is in position, and the Misfortune Star is also on their way to the Li Clan!”
“Good, after waiting for so many years, we finally have the Fortune Star and Misfortune Star together. As long as we refine them, we will have enough luck to initiate the Golden Great Era first!”
