Insufficient balance
The situation at the top of the Li family changed so drastically that the people below, including many members of the extended Li family, were caught off guard for a while. Although some distant relatives knew that the four elders would seize power today, they absolutely did not expect the conflict to escalate to such an absurd degree.
Looking at the tense situation, Mo Yi couldn't help but frown slightly. Although he had expected the internal conflict within the Li family, if the Li family were to lose all its elite members due to infighting and completely fall to a second-rate force, it wouldn't be beneficial for the Mo family either.
Without the Li family's restriction, the contradictions between the Mo and Long families will be exposed, and at that time, the struggle between the two families will definitely not end until one side is defeated. However, at this moment, the Mo family has not made thorough preparations for this.
At the mention of this, Mo Yi couldn't help but laugh and said loudly: "Brother Li, four elders... why must you be so agitated? It's just a conflict between some younger generation members, let them resolve it themselves. What's the point of us intervening? Wouldn't that be overstepping our bounds?"
The elder, with a face full of anger and shock, looked at Mo Yi for a moment, just about to say something, when Li Yi in front of the hall had already slightly shaken his head, saying: "Master Mo, this is my Li family's affair, it's better if you don't intervene. My Li family's governance is not strict, having raised several dogs that want to bite back, it's really nothing worth boasting about. Today, I'd rather have Li Yi borrow the Mo family's great hall to teach a lesson to that old dog at home, please, Master Mo, do not take offense."
Mo's smile stiffened, he had already prepared a way out for Li Han, but unexpectedly, it was used by Li Yi instead. In this situation, he couldn't say anything more either.
Although Li Yi killed countless people of the Mo family, at this moment Mo Yi was even more interested in him. This so-called waste material, Li Yi, how did he have such a bold capital?
"Old dog!?" The Great Elder's face changed slightly, his expression becoming even more ferocious. "Very well! Very well! Today I'll see how you plan to teach me a lesson! What are you all staring at? Get out of my sight!"
The old man shouted at Li's family members with this sentence.
Li Han sneered, saying: "Whoever dares to make a move will be considered a traitor of the Li family. From now on, for generations to come, they will be pursued and killed by the Li family, cut off at the roots, and never allowed to flourish!"
"Even if you don't make a move now and give Li Han the opportunity, will he still let you off easy!?"
The three elders who had been silent all along suddenly spoke coldly.
Among the Li family members who were still hesitant, dozens of people suddenly stood up. These people were mostly confidants of the four elders in the collateral branch of the Li family. In this situation, they could not retreat at all.
The remaining dozen or so people had a hesitant look on their faces, these people were not the confidants of the four elders, and at this time they did not have time to make a choice.
Seeing this scene, Li Han's face was cold and he smiled slightly, his eyes falling on the several bodyguards beside him, just about to say something.
Below, Li Yi smiled slightly and said: "So many? It seems that I should properly rectify this unorthodox family style."
Seeing Li Yi's expressionless face, Li Han was slightly stunned. He slowly put down the hand he had originally raised and gave a sideways glance before quietly looking towards the front of the hall.
When did this son of mine acquire such skills and courage? What else can he achieve? This suddenly made Li Han extremely expectant.
When they saw Li Han, there were no extra movements. The faces of the dozens of Li family members who stood up all relaxed, and their eyes looking at Li Yi became even more unscrupulous.
Instead, Li Yi directly ignored the several elders' eyes filled with killing intent above and looked at the dozens of clan members who stood up. Today, the people from the Li family were very subtle, and none of the direct descendants of the clan were present, while these collateral relatives occupied more than half. Among the fifty or sixty people standing up, there were a few who had a calm expression, making it impossible for Li Yi to see their depth, while the remaining dozens seemed to be all strong fighters at the Dou Zhe level, with each one's Dou Qi being extremely powerful, and in this situation, they didn't even try to conceal it.
These Li family members and the Mo family guards outside are different. In the Li family, those who can reach the level of Dou Zhe generally have good Gong Fa and Dou Ji, so even if they are also Dou Zhe, these Li family members can basically match two or three Mo family guards.
These were all elite figures from the Li family's collateral lines, with seniority and status within the Li family that were not low, otherwise they would not have been qualified to attend this banquet. At this moment, the eyes of these dozens of people fell on Li Yi's body, with playful, sarcastic, puzzled, murderous, and jealous gazes...
All sorts of expressions, endless variety.
Moreover, the aura of these dozens of strong men spread out at the same time, and that cold killing intent suddenly surged towards Li Yi like a tsunami.
This camp is several times stronger than the Mo family's outer guard, and it's estimated that nearly half of the Li family's strength in this hall has been brought out, all of which are firmly controlled by the four elders. It seems that although the four elders have an agreement with the Mo family, they also fear being swallowed up by the other side.
Li Yi's breathing paused for a moment, and then he couldn't help but smile. He had seen this scene before, in his past life when he infiltrated a certain island nation to assassinate their leader, facing at least hundreds of skilled warriors before making his move, the feeling of uncertainty about winning or losing had stirred up all his potential, and it was after that time that he created the Phantom Kill, which made the strong in the dark world tremble with fear.
I just don't know what benefits today will bring me in this kind of situation again?
Li Yi took a deep breath, gestured to Li Nana to retreat, and the long gun in his hand slightly raised, the tip of the gun was trembling constantly, covered with blood and flesh fragments. At this moment, he had cast aside all distractions, and only a heroic spirit remained in his chest!
I, Li Yi, will use this single gun to take down the four of you old dogs' heads and use them as chamber pots tonight!
Behind him, Li Nana looked at Li Yi's gaze, and it was even more impossible to hide her admiration. If Li Jiao had given people a sense of heroism before, then at this moment, Li Yi was the real brave one in his heart.
What gave him the courage to charge into such a situation alone? Was it all for his father?
As Li Yi's long spear thrust out, the originally eerie atmosphere was instantly disrupted by a chilling killing intent.
"Li Yishao, young master! Today I'll come and learn from your superior skills!"
A sword light wrapped in a fiery red aura shot towards Li Yi, instantly covering all his possible retreat routes. Although the sword had not yet arrived, the chilling killing intent on its blade was already making people's hearts tremble with fear.
Li Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of surprise had already flashed across his face. The person in front of him was absolutely no more than twenty years old, but this sword strike that came at him had none of the usual fighting technique's mere brute force without any skill or finesse. Although this sword strike didn't use any special techniques, Li Yi could see that its killing power would be astonishing. This kind of exquisite and well-practiced swordsmanship was something he had never seen before since coming to this world. However, the trouble caused by this person already exceeded that of the hundred people he had just killed.
No wonder the Li family can stand for thousands of years without falling. The Li family's gong fa and fighting skills are indeed worth learning from!
However, Li Yi did not avoid it. He swung his long spear and aimed at the person's throat, using a fatal counterattack method that was ruthless to the extreme.
That man slightly furrowed his brow, with rich combat experience, he naturally sensed that even if this sword could wound Li Yi, his own throat would probably have an extra blood hole.
At this moment he had to abruptly stop his pounce and turn around, holding up the long sword in his hand to block the gun tip.
"Clang——"
A burst of metallic clashes, a fierce explosion of flames suddenly erupted in mid-air, the man's face lit up with joy, he instantly felt that Li Yi's gun did not contain any aura, and he took advantage of this opportunity. In this instant, he urged his own aura to surge forward like an avalanche, following Li Yi's long spear as it charged forward.
But just at this moment, Li Yi's figure suddenly moved forward, the long spear in his hand had already been loosened, and his figure flashed to the front of this person, with a slap on his chest.
"Boom——"
A loud noise almost simultaneously erupted, the long spear thrown by Li Yi could not withstand the devastating blow of Dou Qi, and it had already shattered into fragments in mid-air, emitting a deafening roar. After Li Yi's slap, he slapped this person's face with his backhand, instantly sending him flying out and crashing into the wall, his life or death unknown.
At this time, everyone in the hall had not yet had time to be surprised, and two more people rushed towards Li Yi.
Li Yi did not retreat but instead advanced, calmly saying: "Bring out the axe!"
Li Nana, who had taken a step back, heard this and pulled out a long axe from the dense array of weapons on Li Jiao's body and threw it at Li Yi. Li Yi caught it with one hand and swung the axe like a whirlwind, blocking the two swords that were about to strike him. At the same time, he yanked the axe back, causing the two people to collide violently, each spitting out a mouthful of blood.
But everything was just the beginning, as the three were knocked back, more people rushed up from behind, Li Yi simply twitched his mouth, and the long axe in his hand swung left and right, chopping open all the swords that contained Dou Qi.
Every time he struck, one person would spit blood and retreat. It wasn't that Li Yi didn't want to kill people, but rather he discovered that these people's strength was actually quite good. It was easy to hurt them, but it was extremely difficult to kill them. So instead of wasting his energy to chase and kill them all, he might as well save some effort.
"Crescent Moon Slash!"
A low, mournful cry reached its lowest point, a beam of light suddenly shot out from the crowd and rushed towards Li Yi.
Li Yi let out a cold laugh, and with a swing of his long axe, the beam of light was suddenly dispelled, flying up towards the roof with a loud crash, and Li Yi's long axe also showed signs of cracking.
He casually threw away the long axe in his hand and said in a low voice: "Upper sword!"
Li Nana was already dizzy at this moment, and she almost subconsciously drew out her long sword and threw it to Li Yi.
Li Yi's sword flashed in his hand, a flash of anger crossing his face. His figure burst into a flash, and he instantly flashed into the crowd. He had originally wanted to hide some of his skills, but the other person's move "Half Moon Slash" had already ignited the anger in his heart.
"Clang——clang——clang——"
Several long swords were swung open by him, and those few people were all shocked, almost simultaneously violently retreating.
Li Yi had already fallen onto that gloomy-faced man's body. At this moment, he stared at Li Yi who had killed off over a dozen people and arrived beside him, his face filled with incredulity.
"Was it you who used that move just now?" Li Yi asked calmly.
He nodded unconsciously.
"Very well, you want my life, I will naturally take yours too. This is fair and square, don't blame me after we're dead!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a black light flashed on the tip of Li Yi's sword for the first time. He raised his long sword high and brought it down again.
"Ding——"
"Hmmph!"
The man's long sword, raised in a flurry of panic, snapped in two. Next, Li Yi's sword sliced down unimpeded along the man's brow, splitting his body in two in an instant. A massive amount of blood spurted out like a fountain, re-liquefying the blood clots that had already begun to congeal on Li Yi's body.
Dozens of people around him, yet none had a chance to come up and block his fatal sword.
At this moment, Li Yi's sword has shocked everyone, and everyone is disbelieving. Is there really such a person in the world who can overcome the strong with the weak, defeat the many with the few, and be invincible under the heavens!
