Chapter 1150: Chapter 1144: We’re Screwed
The clan’s Spirit Ship moved forward.
The descendants in Northern Frontier City and Silver Moon City successively moved out of the Northern Frontier.
They also left some descendants in the Northern Frontier to manage their businesses, having the assassins from the Heavenly Principle Hall protect them.
No matter how greedy the other party was, as long as they weren’t entirely confident in taking down the Li Clan, it was impossible for them to just suddenly turn hostile and provoke a fairly decent immortal clan.
If worst came to worst, Li Wei could also give them a grand gift package worth 5,000 Clan Will; the Qiu Clan’s iceberg was still sitting right there.
Gazing at the Spirit Ship.
Li Wei pondered for a moment.
“The matters in the Northern Frontier are settled. How things will ultimately turn out still depends on the Imperial Capital.”
At the thought of this, Li Wei’s expression turned somewhat sour.
That day in the imperial court, Feng Tu was killed by Wenren Xianyi, and Chang’an was taken away.
With the decree of the “Ten Deadly Sins” coming down, he had already lost all trust in the Dynasty.
When in the Northern Frontier, Li Wei had gotten to know Wenren Jiuyue through the children.
He was amiable, broad-minded, and a truly good person.
As for Wenren Xianyi, Li Chang’an had also mentioned her to him.
Wenren Xianyi was an extraordinary woman—decisive in killing, highly ambitious, yet not lacking a heart that cared for the world.
Both of them were good people, but nowadays, the general situation of the world was treacherous and unpredictable; perhaps in the next second, they would turn into malicious ghosts from the Netherworld.
Just like their Li Clan, for the sake of the clan’s proliferation, they absolutely couldn’t be called good people either. At the very least, Xinnian wasn’t.
…
The Imperial Capital.
Zishu Ling, Master Qiuyue of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, and Gongyang Ju of the Emberwing Guard were currently gathered in a courtyard estate.
The Zishu family had proliferated for over a hundred thousand years and experienced numerous tribulations; some had simply changed their surname altogether. Their internal relationships were even more complex.
Over the years, generation after generation had relied on their Human Emperor bloodline to become Prefecture Masters and Region Princes.
The branches were incredibly mixed, and the lineage connections in the Ancestral Hall could be stacked as high as a building.
Nowadays, these people of unknown generation—whose bloodlines had thinned to an unknown degree—were all jumping around actively, just like the imperial bloodlines in the various prefectures back in the day.
They were waiting to accomplish some earth-shattering deeds and write their own names on the very first page of the genealogy book, so they could command all the members of the Zishu family across the world.
“Just look at your appearance. Even if you were given the position of Empress, could you suppress the experts of the world?”
Gongyang Ju of the Emberwing Guard, dressed in white and holding a white folding fan, watched Zishu Ling’er pacing back and forth in front of him and secretly complained in his heart.
Zishu Ling’er was one of the prime examples of these people.
As soon as the “Ten Deadly Sins” of the Li Clan came out, who knows from which obscure corner Zishu Ling, a disciple of a reclusive sect, crawled out.
And who knows which thousand-cuts-deserving bastard tricked her into suddenly stepping into the open to oppose the Li Clan.
Oh, he was the same, but that was because someone had forced him with a knife to his neck.
As for this Master Qiuyue beating his chest and stomping his feet in front of him… The people of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.
They were just a bunch of cursed shit-stirrers.
“Do you two have any countermeasures?”
Gongyang Ju said impatiently,
“What the Azure Cloud Li Clan has done in the Northern Frontier is known to the whole world.
The Crown Prince was killed by the Qiu Clan… no, the Crown Prince perished in the Northern Frontier.
Those who know the hidden truth behind this matter are delighted to see it happen.
The Li Clan, on the contrary, took revenge for the Crown Prince in the name of the Department of Immortal Suppression.
The ‘Ten Deadly Sins’ exist in name only, and now the Li Clan is returning.”
“It is known to the world that the Li Clan seeks revenge for the smallest grievance.
You two spoke recklessly in the imperial court and captured Li Chang’an.
If the Li Clan holds you accountable as accomplices, everything, including your lives, will be over.”
“Brother Gongyang is quite relaxed?” Unexpectedly, these mild words drew a cold glare from Master Qiuyue.
“We are merely knives used for killing, discarded once used. Although you haven’t shown your face, the people behind us will definitely push the three of us out to avoid trouble.
Brother Gongyang, you cannot escape.”
“Does Brother Gongyang believe that the moment the three of us take a single step out of the Imperial Capital, our heads will fall to the ground?”
Instead of being alarmed, Gongyang Ju was overjoyed.
Being in the company of this person meant there was still a sliver of surviv—
“I am of the Zishu family bloodline! Where would they get the courage to kill me?!”
“…”
Looking at Zishu Ling’er’s arrogant and domineering, yet pretty face, the corners of Gongyang Ju’s mouth, which had been turning up into a smile, slowly fell.
Welp, we’re screwed.
