Chapter 145: Disaster at Dawn or Dusk

Below, Huaqian Mountain was filled with screams. Watching Lu Yuanlu's headless corpse fall into the forest, the great formation on the mountain wavered. This group of people finally felt regret. Some cried and screamed, and some knelt down and kowtowed. The foot of the mountain was surrounded by the Li family's troops, with nowhere to escape.

Before long, the great formation on Huaqian Mountain collapsed with a crash. Li Tongya rode the wind and landed on the mountain. Below, a large area had already knelt down. A middle-aged man shrank his head and said repeatedly:

"Lu family head Lu Anyu greets the Li family ancestor!"

Lu Anyu and the other Lu family members finally understood what the disaster at dawn or dusk that Lu Sisi kept muttering before he died meant. Lu Sisi was buried in the morning, and the disaster arrived before them in the middle of the night, which made people sigh.

Li Tongya looked at his appearance, saw him raise his head with a crying face, and called out:

"Please spare our lives, ancestor. The Lu family will disband immediately. The two mountains of Huaqian and Tiaoyun will also belong to the Li family. The disciples in the clan are at the ancestor's disposal, and we dare not have two hearts..."

"Please stand up quickly!"

Li Tongya was very polite, saying with a look of regret:

"I admire Senior Sisi very much. It is also because I saw that Lu Yuanlu did too much that I took action to punish this person. The family head should not blame me."

"How would the villain dare!"

Lu Anyu called out. Li Tongya did not wait for him to speak and said warmly:

"Currently, the Lu family has no Qi Refining cultivators, so it really cannot stand firm on Wangyue Lake. Has the family head thought of a way?"

The middle-aged man was stunned, finally turned the corner, both happy and sad, and hurriedly said:

"We are at the ancestor's disposal!"

Li Tongya nodded and said to the direct descendants of the Lu family below:

"The Lu and Li families have been on good terms after all, and I also admire Senior Sisi's character very much, so I will give you two choices."

"First, join my Li family's four towns. The men will marry into the family, the women will remarry, and you must not keep the Lu surname. From now on, you will be no different from the people of my Li family, and you can still be a wealthy man and enjoy your old age."

"Second, if you still have the intention to rebuild the Lu family, we do not want to kill them all, so we will let you go and send you out of the boundary, and you can find your own opportunities."

Li Tongya had just finished speaking, and Li Xuanfeng had already understood, standing out with an indifferent expression, and smiled:

"Those who want to rebuild the Lu family can follow me down the mountain."

The whole scene was silent, everyone kept their heads down, not daring to move. After a long time, a woman walked out and stood angrily in front of Li Xuanfeng. Li Xuanfeng looked around and took this person down the mountain.

Seeing the troops surrounding the mountain give way to a path, gradually some people dared to follow. The Lu family people above disappeared by a small half in an instant. Led by those few Fetal Breath cultivators, they walked down the mountain in a dejected manner. Li Tongya sneered in his heart, looked at Lu Anyu, and smiled:

"Does the family head not follow them down the mountain?"

Lu Anyu raised his head and said with a bitter smile:

"We have no spiritual apertures. Leaving the mountain is just being a slave to those cultivators. What's the point! It's better to submit to the Li family. At least we can be a wealthy man and not have to run around in our old age and die in some corner."

Cupping his hands, Lu Anyu smiled flatteringly and said in a low voice:

"The Lu family still has a few inheritances! I will go and get them for the senior."

Having said that, he naturally stepped forward to leave. Li Tongya looked at him up and down and said coldly:

"Stop!"

Lu Anyu was stunned and knelt on the ground with a thud, not daring to speak.

Although Li Tongya looked at the Lu family members as all useless, he was very cautious, fearing that this person was just bowing his head and actually wanted to destroy the inheritance. He said to Li Qiuyang, who was standing vigilantly beside him, in a low voice:

"You follow and see."

Li Qiuyang nodded in understanding, pulled Lu Anyu and walked a few steps, and warned:

"Follow me honestly, don't have any crooked ideas!"

Before long, Li Qiuyang walked out of the courtyard with three jade slips, followed by Lu Anyu, who had a flattering look on his face. Li Qiuyang said respectfully:

"Uncle, there is a spirit spring in the Huaqian Mountain cave dwelling. The spiritual energy concentration is quite high, ten percent higher than the Meichi Peak cave dwelling. It is a good place."

Li Tongya nodded, took the three jade slips from his hand, probed them with his spiritual sense, and praised:

"Not bad."

These three jade slips were all Qi Refining techniques. Two of them were first-grade common Qi Refining techniques, which did not overlap with the techniques in the family. Li Tongya naturally accepted them. The last one was quite peculiar, called "Cave Spring Clear Spirit Technique," which was a third-grade technique, using cave spring clear energy to cultivate.

"The Qi Refining achieved by this Cave Spring Clear Energy is full of vitality and long-lasting strength. Lu Sisi insisted on Huaqian Mountain. It turns out he was aiming for the spirit spring in the mountain. No wonder Lu Sisi himself used common Qi Refining, and Lu Yuanlu had already used the 'Cave Spring Clear Spirit Technique'."

It could be considered as solving a puzzle in his heart. Li Tongya waved his hand, and immediately the clan soldiers escorted this group of Lu family members back to the four towns. Li Xuansuan and Li Tongya entered the cave dwelling in the Lu family's mountains to check the spirit spring.

————

Li Xuanfeng took the group of Lu family members who wanted to rebuild the Lu family down the mountain. He swept his gaze low and saw some hatred. He smiled ironically, took this group of people for a while, and a group of people emerged in front of him.

"Brother Feng, are they all here?"

Li Xuanling was wearing armor, holding a green blade in his hand. The cold blades of the clan soldiers behind him flickered, making people terrified, but he asked with a smile.

"They are all here. I watched carefully on the road and didn't let one go."

The expressions of the people behind him changed immediately. Someone tried to be calm and said:

"Your ancestor promised to send us out of the boundary! Don't act on your own and make your elders lose their credibility!"

Li Xuanfeng sneered. Everyone finally realized that the surroundings had already been surrounded by the Li family's troops. Li Xuanfeng glanced at him and smiled:

"This place is already out of the Li family's territory, so how can it not be considered sending out of the boundary? You people suffered many casualties on the road due to bandits, scattered and fled, and don't know where you are, so you can't rebuild the Lu family."

"You... you...!"

The clan soldiers around rushed up in silence. Suddenly, crying and begging for mercy were mixed together. The cold-shining blades splashed blood all over the ground, and a group of people fell like wheat.

Li Xuanfeng raised his bow and shot the few Fetal Breath cultivators who were still resisting one by one. Li Xuanling watched this group of people all fall, went up to check them one by one, and then said softly:

"These clan soldiers are all carefully selected and loyal people. Nothing about this matter will spread. This is the best of both worlds!"

"Not bad."

Li Xuanfeng carried the bow in his hand on his back. The clan soldiers below had already begun to dig pits to bury the corpses. He pondered for a few breaths and said:

"It's just that I have to guard against whether there are any smart people with ulterior motives among those who defected. When we return to the town, we must monitor them well so that there won't be any chaos."

"Leave these things to Brother Xuan."

Li Xuanling smiled slightly. Returning this time, he could give an account to Lu Wan Yuan, which made him feel much more relaxed. The brothers looked at each other and smiled, and led the troops into the forest. ===== CHAPTER 146 =====
