Chapter 851: Assembly
Chapter 851: Assembly
Nangong Pingfeng felt a profound sense of helplessness. Unexpectedly, the plan that was initially well-laid out had undergone such massive changes due to Lin Feng’s intervention. It was utterly baffling how Lin Feng could be such a formidable person. Could it be... could it be that Lin Feng was truly a match for the Ancestor of the Li Family? This was simply inconceivable...
"Alright, there’s no need to worry about the matter with Lin Feng," he said. "Lin Feng will naturally show up here when the time comes. What you all need the most right now is to go back and rest and prepare yourselves for what comes next. As long as we work together, the Nangong Family can overcome this ordeal."
Seeing this, Nangong Mingyue didn’t want to waste any more time here. He quickly expressed his opinion. With everyone gathered here, staying further would be pointless. It was better for everyone to go and do what they needed to do, and he also didn’t want to watch a room full of people sighing and lamenting.
...
Meanwhile, at the Li Family residing at the foot of Jingming Mountain, chaos reigned.
When Li Litian received the call, he too could hardly believe it was true. After all, Yue Bufan was an S-rank expert. Otherwise, how could the Yue Family have possibly been seen as capable by the Li Family of replacing the Nangong Family in Australia? The plan had been to support this puppet, but he had never expected an S-rank mid-stage expert to be severely injured by someone, left with barely half his life. This was truly unimaginable!
What was even more incredible was that the person who had injured Yue Bufan was Lin Feng, and it was done in a single move that reduced Yue Bufan to a mere half-life. This was utterly astonishing. What kind of strength was this? Thinking of it, Li Litian couldn’t help but take it seriously. Among the many elders of the Li Family, it was doubtful any could have reduced Yue Bufan to such a state with a single strike. Lin Feng... how had he become so powerful? This was truly baffling!
It seemed that the original plan could no longer be carried out. This matter had to be notified to the Ancestor for a decision on how to handle it, as a confrontation with Lin Feng was inevitable. Now that the other two prominent families had mostly been swallowed up, only the Nangong Family was left. Since Lin Feng had appeared there, perhaps it was time to see if the Ancestor would act and kill him, then flatten the Nangong Clan?
Thinking this, Li Litian could no longer sit still and urgently convened an internal family meeting. There weren’t many people, just a few elders, and inviting the Ancestor was enough. It was imperative to finalize this matter quickly so that Lin Feng could be permanently kept in Australia.
No sooner had he thought it than Li Litian sent for a few elders and the Ancestor. Soon, they arrived at Li Litian’s location, looking puzzled about what could have necessitated their urgent summons.
"Litian, what has happened?" Li Deming, who had been healing, had sustained severe internal injuries from a recent fight with the Old Monster. Over this period, with the aid of the Li Family’s spiritual medicines and his own closed-door healing, his injuries had largely healed, posing no serious issues. He had planned to wait until he was fully recovered to confront the Nangong Family, but he had not expected Li Litian to suddenly summon him, leaving him quite puzzled and wondering if something significant had occurred that required his presence at this unusual time.
"Litian, we are also curious about what has happened."
"Yes, what on earth has happened?"
"Tell us quickly."
"Has something significant occurred?"
...
The many elders, filled with questions, looked at Li Litian, expressing their thoughts. In their memory, Li Litian was a very composed person. If it wasn’t for some major event, Li Litian wouldn’t have hurriedly gathered them and the Ancestor like this. What could have happened?
"Ancestor, Elders, something significant has occurred. I just received information that Lin Feng has suddenly appeared in Australia, and he has come as the savior of the Nangong Clan. Also, recently, Lin Feng has crippled our puppet intended to replace the Nangong Family, the head of the Yue Family, Yue Bufan, leaving him with barely half a life. Therefore, I summoned all the elders and the Ancestor to discuss how to handle this situation."
Seeing everyone assembled, Li Litian immediately shared his thoughts. The issue at hand was indeed significant; Lin Feng had now shown up at the Nangong Family and had also critically injured Yue Bufan, disrupting their previous arrangement. This matter could not be ignored, and another important aspect was Lin Feng’s revealed strength, which had proven to be formidable. Only the Ancestor’s intervention could possibly kill Lin Feng.
"What! You’re saying Lin Feng killed Yue Bufan? Damn that Lin Feng; I will cripple him! Litian, immediately gather all the capable fighters we can deploy, and then we’ll head to the Nangong Family to kill Lin Feng and exterminate the Nangong Family!"
Li Deming heard Li Litian say so and was immediately enraged. Yue Bufan’s dependence on the Li Family was approved by him, and it was precisely because of Yue Bufan’s strength that he was ready to have Yue Bufan take over the Nangong Family. With Yue Bufan’s business acumen, he would undoubtedly dominate Australia after replacing the Nangong Family, bringing great wealth to the Li Family. With sufficient wealth, the Li Family could develop even better.
But to his shock, Lin Feng had suddenly gone to Australia and crippled Yue Bufan, shattering his original plans. How could he not be furious? The thought that Lin Feng had once again disrupted the affairs of the Li Family sent Li Deming into a frenzy.
Lin Feng, that damned Lin Feng!
If it weren’t for Lin Feng, Li Li wouldn’t have died. If it weren’t for Lin Feng, the child Zerui wouldn’t have gotten into trouble. It could be said that without Lin Feng’s interference, the Li Family would never have been so humiliated. Initially, he had planned to wait until after he had crushed the Nangong Family and completely consolidated his power before dealing with Lin Feng, but now Li Deming could no longer wait. He was nearly being driven to death by his anger towards Lin Feng. If he didn’t kill Lin Feng soon, how would he ever be able to vent his anger?
Thinking of this, Li Deming felt a burning rage in his heart and desperately wanted to tear Lin Feng to pieces immediately to uphold the dignity of the Li Family. As for the power Lin Feng currently displayed, it was admittedly impressive, but in Li Deming’s view, even if Lin Feng was formidable, he couldn’t possibly be a match for him at present. Li Deming was very confident about this. Once he made his move, Lin Feng would face nothing but death. Only with Lin Feng’s death could everything return to its rightful place.
"This Lin Feng, daring to run off to Australia. He’s really got some nerve."
"Him, thinking he can be the savior of the Nangong Clan, what a joke!"
"Young people are always arrogant!"
"What qualifies him to challenge the Ancestor?"
"Listen to the Ancestor, gather our forces immediately, go kill Lin Feng, and annihilate the Nangong Family!"
...
After hearing Li Litian’s explanation, the Elders finally understood the situation. They too fully agreed with the Ancestor’s words. In dealing with someone as foolhardy as Lin Feng, the only solution was to kill him. Doing so would uphold the authority of the Li Family. Lin Feng was extremely presumptuous; while it was impressive that he could kill Yue Bufan, there was no way he could match the Ancestor. The Ancestor had already defeated the Old Monster, making him unmatched in the entire Cultivation Realm. Lin Feng still dreaming of being the Nangong Family’s savior was simply courting death!
Thinking of this, the Elders all expressed their opinions. At this moment, they clearly understood what the Ancestor truly meant. Only with Lin Feng’s death could the prestige of the Li Family be maintained. Therefore, the Li Family could not wait anymore. They must move quickly to kill Lin Feng, or else how could they continue to have a foothold in the Cultivation Realm!
"Gathering our forces to go is no problem, but Ancestor, your injuries..."
After hearing what Li Deming said, although Li Litian agreed with the Ancestor’s thoughts and was eager to go and kill Lin Feng immediately with the Ancestor, there was one crucial issue he had to consider—the Ancestor’s injuries had not yet fully healed. This was a major concern. Others might not know, but he was very aware. The last time the Ancestor fought with the Old Monster, although he had won, the Ancestor was also seriously injured. The Ancestor had been healing in seclusion these days, and it was unclear how well his injuries had recovered. Under no circumstances could he let the Ancestor go into battle wounded.
Actually, Li Litian had another thought in mind, which was that the strength Lin Feng had now shown was unfathomable. Although Lin Feng couldn’t possibly be a match for the Ancestor, wouldn’t it be better if they were more certain? Once the Ancestor recovered, killing Lin Feng would be like using a cleaver to kill a chicken, utter overkill!
"My injuries are nothing to worry about, there are no issues now. Let’s prepare our forces and gather our troops quickly. This time, our objective is to kill Lin Feng and flatten the Nangong Clan! I can hardly wait to tear him apart!"
Li Deming dismissed Li Litian’s concern. What was Lin Feng compared to him? Even injured, killing Lin Feng would be easy. He had already defeated the Old Monster, so how could Lin Feng, this inexperienced youngster, be an issue? That was indubitable!
His current determination was to kill Lin Feng, and the sooner, the better. Every time he heard the name Lin Feng, something bad happened to the Li Family, which enraged Li Deming beyond words. Only by killing Lin Feng could things return to normal; only then could he lead the Li Family to a glory it had never seen before!
Lin Feng, must be killed, and it must be done immediately! Otherwise, Li Deming felt he might die of rage!
