Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 182: What Has Happened In The Sect?

"What has happened in the sect?"

Hearing this, the disciple hurriedly recounted the events that had transpired outside while Daoist Jiuyou was busy training Li Yunlin over the past twenty-odd years.

He started with the killing of the Li family's Pig Demon King seven years ago, then the Li family's escape from Tailin Town and their disappearance, the erection of the 'Tower' of human heads outside the Azure Cloud Pavilion, and finally, the current widespread slaughter and the pleas for help from various places directed at the Skyveil Sect.

"Grand Elder," the disciple reported, "twelve locations, twelve places with rivers of blood. Many of them are influential families. The estimated death toll exceeds three hundred thousand."

A look of horror flashed across the disciple's eyes. "Over these past seven years," he added, "the Li family's killing has resulted in nearly two million deaths."

"..."

Daoist Jiuyou furrowed his brow, remaining silent for a long time. Anger flashed in his eyes as he glanced back at the Skybreak Hall, his neck stiffening. He gritted his teeth, and his Nascent Soul emerged from his body, soaring towards the distance, his fury intensifying. Finally, his Nascent Soul returned to his physical form.

He took a deep breath, his face now showing anger. "Where is the Sect Leader?" he asked.

"He's... in the main hall."

Upon learning that Sect Leader Zhen was in the main hall, a sharp glint flashed in Daoist Jiuyou's eyes, and his body transformed into mist.

When he reappeared, he was already inside the spacious main hall.

On the steps above, Sect Leader Zhen had a grave expression. His right hand rested on the armrest of the Sect Leader's seat, his fist tightly clenched as if he were facing a difficult problem.

Seeing Daoist Jiuyou appear, Sect Leader Zhen's expression changed, and he hurriedly rose to greet him with a bow. "Disciple greets Master," he said. "Congratulations on completing your seclusion. Tianlin must have already progressed in his cultivation..."

But before he could finish his sentence, Daoist Jiuyou appeared before him.

Slap!

A sharp sound echoed through the hall. Sect Leader Zhen's hair was disheveled, and his head, previously bowed respectfully, now turned to the side from the slap delivered by Daoist Jiuyou. While he was still dazed, Daoist Jiuyou kicked him, sending him crashing into a pillar. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

Only then did Daoist Jiuyou sit down on the Sect Leader's seat, his expression icy as he glared at Sect Leader Zhen, who was getting up from the floor. "I was in seclusion for twenty-eight years," he said coldly, "and this is what you've done."

"Disciple knows his mistake."

Sect Leader Zhen hurriedly bowed again. "Disciple..."

Daoist Jiuyou interrupted him coldly. "Tell me, what other skills do you have? Your only skill is manipulating things with your schemes, confining Yunlin within the sect for fifty years, and deliberately imprisoning that waste, Qiuye, for twenty years?"

"Disciple..."

"You think you're so clever? Qiuye was imprisoned in a dungeon for twenty years. With his treacherous nature, he would inevitably seek revenge and attempt to annihilate the Li family. What a cunning plan you devised."

Daoist Zhenyang looked at his enraged master and finally gritted his teeth, lifting his head. "Master," he said, "wasn't it all for the sake of the sect? Yunlin possesses the Nine Spirit Mystic Fire and has extraordinary talent, but this disciple knows the Li family better. Every single one of them prioritizes their family above all else! Yunlin has cultivated in our sect for many years, but as long as the Li family exists, he will never truly be a member of the Skyveil Sect!"

"This disciple also knows Qiuye well. He is a treacherous person who only observes from the shadows. Nothing can be traced back to our Skyveil Sect. By then, Yunlin would be all alone, his ties to the mortal world severed."

"However, this disciple never expected..."

Seeing the remorse in Sect Leader Zhen's eyes, Daoist Jiuyou understood.

All for the sake of the sect. As the Sect Leader, he had done every dirty deed and gone to any lengths.

Daoist Jiuyou looked up at the sky and sighed deeply. He suddenly understood his disciple's intentions. However...

He never expected the Li family to possess such strength and determination.

This family from the small Tailin Town, after the death of the Pig Demon King, they were like lunatics, determined to drag the entire Azure Cloud region down with them.

Sect Leader Zhen had made a grave miscalculation, and now it was too late to rectify it.

"How could such a family exist in this world?"

After hearing the news from his disciple, even he was terrified!

He thought Li Yunlin was a genius beyond comparison, but compared to the Li family, Li Yunlin's talent was likely nothing special.

Li Dalong and his wife came from a rural background, yet they formed their Golden Cores at over a hundred years old. Li Dalong cultivated both spiritual techniques and martial arts, mastering each to a transcendental level. It was said that his Golden Core was even a Heavenly Core. Xu Cuihua, with her fox demon form, had already reached the mid-stage of Golden Core...

The four members of the Li family's second generation were all extraordinary. Li Yaozu, the Sword King, was the strongest swordsman in Azure Cloud, possessing an acquired sword body. Li Yaoqing, known as the Holy Maiden of Herbs, was famous throughout Azure Cloud. Her techniques were unmatched among those at the same cultivation level. Li Yaotie was a genius artifact refiner and puppet master, capable of forging spirit puppets from his own body, a truly imaginative and innovative individual.

News of Li Yaowen had also arrived. She single-handedly suppressed the entire Azure Cloud Pavilion, using the power of literary cultivation to manipulate the laws of the four seasons. Her heavenly tribulation was imminent. If she could successfully overcome it, she would make a tremendous leap forward, directly reaching the Nascent Soul stage!

Even the young Li Tianyi, within a single day, carried out a massacre at the Azure Cloud Martial Pavilion, killing all the geniuses from the twenty-four districts. What extraordinary talent he must possess!

The madman Li Tianming, the Beast King Li Tianshuang, the outlaw Li Tianqi...

Each name felt like a weight, almost suffocating.

Daoist Jiuyou let out a long breath, then suddenly said with an impassive expression, "I just used my divine sense to investigate. The Li family has already arrived."

"Master!"

Sect Leader Zhen looked at Daoist Jiuyou, who seemed to have aged suddenly. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yunlin hasn't finished his seclusion yet. As long as we kill all the Li family members, we can guide Yunlin to wholeheartedly devote himself to the Dao in the future, and everything will remain unchanged. Moreover, experts from various powerful factions have already arrived. The Li family's arrogance and recklessness will lead to their self-destruction!"

Before he could finish his words...

both Daoist Jiuyou and Sect Leader Zhen furrowed their brows.

A thunderous roar echoed from outside the Skyveil Sect, a voice filled with murderous intent booming across the entire sect's sky.

"Old thief Zhen, get out here!"

"Pay with your life!"

Following this furious roar, the origin of which was unknown...

"BOOM!"

Dust and smoke billowed outside the main hall as two figures, mangled and bloodied, crashed into the Skyveil Sect.

Elder Qiuye raised his hand.

"Ancestor Jiuyou, save... save your disciple!"
