Chapter 653: The Li Family Members Tremble in Fear

At this moment, the Li Family members were quite hesitant.

Of course, the most hesitant of all should still be Li Shangjian.

After all, he was one of the family's geniuses.

Although he ranked at the bottom among the Li Family's geniuses, he was still a genius.

At merely a few thousand years old, he had already advanced to Great Emperor First Heaven.

Placed in the mortal world, he would already be an existence that crushed everyone.

He just hadn't expected that now a Xu Chen would suddenly appear.

Even less expected was a Yun Qianyue.

And even more unexpected—

The Innate Dao Body Li Ruoling he was seeking turned out to be Xu Chen's woman.

Li Ruoling had now completely sided with Xu Chen.

For a moment, his face turned extremely ugly.

He didn't even know what to do next. "Crack!"

Just as Li Shangjian was hesitating—

One of his subordinates, out of sheer terror—

Had accidentally crushed the Space Jade Pendant in his hand.

In an instant, that sound made the people of the Li Family General Clan tremble.

The next second, they discovered in shock—

This person's body was gradually becoming twisted and grotesque.

Soon he became a dried corpse, his Divine Soul utterly annihilated.

Yet the surrounding void showed no change at all. "Holy shit!"

Everyone instantly understood.

Space had been sealed.

Although they didn't know why, it was now an obvious fact.

The person the Li Family General Clan wanted to summon must be above Great Emperor First Heaven.

Someone who could easily deal with those above Great Emperor First Heaven.

They didn't know exactly which Heaven.

But now it was obvious—that person couldn't get through.

Not even a single bit of information had been transmitted.

The people of the Li Family Branch Clan and the Li Family General Clan quickly realized it too.

For a moment, they too began to tremble.

Their Space Jade Pendants were already useless.

Li Shangjian also felt lingering fear, secretly relieved.

If he had crushed the Jade Pendant first just now—

Then the one to fall now would probably be him.

A hundred percent, no need to even mention the possibility.

Xu Chen said casually, "What, you don't dare crush it?" As his words fell—

Cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of the Li Family members.

How could they dare!

Who would dare?

Whoever crushes it, dies.

This Yun Qianyue is too terrifying.

Li Ruoling snorted coldly, "I was even thinking of killing a few people." The Li Family clansmen held no feelings for her whatsoever.

When she was abandoned back then, it was also because her parents had been driven out of the Li Family.

Now this bunch of Li Family clansmen, seeing she was an Innate Dao Body, wanted to take her back.

Simply laughable to the extreme.

Li Shangjian gritted his teeth and said, "Li Ruoling, do you truly not return to the main clan?"

"Slap!"

The moment he finished speaking, a Spiritual Qi palm print suddenly appeared on Li Shangjian's face.

As Spiritual Qi splattered, a faint trace of blood appeared at the corner of Li Shangjian's mouth. Li Ruoling said coldly, "Dare to mention this matter to me again, and I'll kill you on the spot." If not for fear of causing trouble for Xu Chen—

She truly wanted to kill someone right now.

It's just that the Eight Great Ancient Clans weren't that easy to provoke.

In the end, she had to endure.

Wait until she reached the Immortal Emperor realm.

At that time, even slaughtering the Li Family would be effortless.

Hearing this, the Li Family members were so angry their bodies trembled.

But in the end, not a single word dared leave their mouths.

After all, Li Ruoling at this moment was truly too powerful.

An Innate Dao Body was invincible at the same level—no need to even think about it.

Xu Chen said lazily, "People of the Li Family, hurry up and open the entrance to the Lingtong Ancient Domain. Stop the nonsense."

Li Shangjian, upon hearing this, instantly felt himself regarded as a servant.

A slight unwillingness rose in his heart.

Yet he dared not make any move.

In the end, he could only grit his teeth and say, "Very well."

"Voom!"

"Zing!"

Having spoken, he began to change the hand seals.

Immediately, Sword Qi surged within his palm.

The long sword behind him shot out abruptly.

Its volume skyrocketed hundreds of times, transforming into a sword reaching the heavens.

The sword shadows resembled dark clouds, blocking the sky and sun. "Boom!"

"Splash!"

Finally, the massive long sword descended directly from the sky.

In the blink of an eye, it plunged into the Weak Water River.

Soon, the giant long sword began to emit ten thousand rays of light.

This intense light caused everyone to close their eyes.

For a moment, all of them could only watch with their divine sense.

They discovered that this river reaching the heavens had been split in two by a single sword strike... although the river flow still churned, waves surged continuously, and the roaring sound never ceased.

Yet the river was indeed divided into two halves, slowly sliding apart to the left and right.

Finally, a circular, vortex-like blue teleportation gate.

Slowly presented itself before everyone.

A faint suction force emanated from within this teleportation gate.

Everyone vaguely felt Emperor Qi radiating from the gate. Li Shangjian said, "This must be the entrance to the Lingtong Ancient Domain. After I cast this Secret Technique, only this entrance can be opened." Everyone nodded; it seemed Li Shangjian had never entered it before. Xu Chen said, "You did quite well. Go in first." Li Shangjian and the others' faces instantly turned black. Are you even human?

After I cast this Secret Technique, only this entrance can be opened. The crowd nodded; it seemed Li Shangjian had never entered it either. Xu Chen said, "Well done. You go in first." Li Shangjian and the others' faces instantly turned black. Will you at least act like a human?

Moreover, no one knew what lay within.

Asking him to enter first was tantamount to seeking death.

Therefore, Li Shangjian gritted his teeth and said, "Do not be too excessive."

Xu Chen was stunned and said, "Letting you enter first is for your own good." Li Shangjian roared, "Then why don't you go in?" Xu Chen said, "Then I will enter." Li Shangjian gritted his teeth: "If you want to enter, then you enter." Xu Chen nodded: "Since you have said so, I will stop wasting words. Qianyue, Ruoling, let's go."

Xu Chen was stunned and said, "Letting you go in first is for your own good." Li Shangjian roared, "Then why don't you go in?" Xu Chen said, "Then I'll go in." Li Shangjian gritted his teeth: "If you want to go in, go ahead." Xu Chen nodded: "Since you've said so, I won't waste words. Qianyue, Ruoling, let's go."

Instantly vanished from the spot.

When they reappeared, they were already upon the massive teleportation gate of the great river.

Everyone saw that Xu Chen and the others occupied only one-twentieth of the teleportation gate's space.

Li Shangjian and the others looked utterly bewildered.

Did Xu Chen voluntarily approach the danger?

Or did Xu Chen discover some benefit? Xu Chen chuckled lightly: "Everyone, farewell to the Lingtong Ancient Domain." Having spoken, Xu Chen, carrying the two women, stepped into it with one foot.

Or perhaps some benefit was discovered by Xu Chen? Xu Chen chuckled lightly: "Everyone, see you in the Lingtong Ancient Domain." With that, Xu Chen led the two women and stepped into it with one foot.

Then he was completely teleported away, vanishing from everyone's sight.

In an instant, only the crowd, staring at each other in silence, remained.

Thief Xu, why is he so proactive this time?

Damn it! There must be something fishy!

Damn! There's definitely something fishy!
