The strong smell of blood cannot be concealed even by the blazing heat.
On the high mountains of the Jiuyao Mountains, the flames were still burning, but close to the Xiaojie Mountains, there were three corpses. None of these three corpses is complete, either with severed arms or legs. One of them looks more like it has been torn apart by someone, but if you look closely, you will find the other two corpses. The severed limbs were also twisted and torn using extremely rough methods, rather than being killed by sharp weapons or spells.
However, the two people standing next to these corpses were staring into the depths of the Jiuyao Mountains with solemn faces.
There were dense thunderclouds, and golden thunder struck down from the sky from time to time, seemingly endlessly.
A young man who fell to the ground looked pale and had multiple injuries on his body, but at least he did not suffer such a tragic end like his companions. The young man raised his head and glanced at another cultivator next to him - this was a middle-aged man. His iron tower-like figure would definitely impress any cultivator who had seen this person, but at this moment But he was staring at the thunder clouds in front of him with a solemn face.
A heavy sword was inserted into the ground beside him.
If Lu Li were here, he would definitely recognize this person's identity. He is the gatekeeper Lu Li met when he went to the Demon Sword Sect.
Dai Feng.
The surrounding air seemed a bit solemn.
After a while, Dai Feng suddenly said: "That's the eighteenth thunder, right?"
The young cultivator who was awakened by Dai Feng's words looked confused. He didn't even notice what was going on in the thunder clouds ahead. With his cultivation level that has just entered the Cave Heaven Realm, thunder tribulation is still very far away from him.
But obviously, Dai Feng did not expect his answer, but asked again: "What's going on?"
"We met Li Yihan." The young man who was lucky enough to escape the disaster smiled bitterly, "But then it seemed that someone from Lei Jie sent a signal for help, and Li Yihan rushed over immediately, so I was lucky. Escaped."
When he heard the name Li Yihan, Dai Feng raised his eyebrows, and there was a little more fear in his eyes.
He couldn't help but think of the scene three hundred years ago. At that time, he was just a young cultivator in the Immortality Realm. However, he had met Li Yihan once in the sword hall of the Demon Sword Sect. This woman had already passed through five years at that time. A powerful person in the Heavenly Thunder Realm who has experienced a thunder tribulation. In the Demon Sword Sect's sword hall, she relied on her own strength to overthrow the seven elders of the Demon Sword Sect who were also just one step away from entering the Dharma Realm. In the end, an elder with the Dharma Realm took action. Suppressed this arrogant woman.
But in that battle, she was defeated even though she was defeated.
¡°After that, I heard that she began to conquer various secret realms, and it is said that she also made quite a name. There is a rumor in the Demon Sword Sect that Zi Yan was thrown to Nanhuang by Xie Simin for training. It was because Xie Simin was stimulated by Li Yihan, so he acted so crazy. However, later facts proved that Xie Simin's behavior was so crazy. The training method was very successful. At least she gave the Demon Sword Sect another little lunatic to accompany her, an old lunatic, everywhere.
When he thought of the woman Li Yihan in Lei Jie at this moment, Dai Feng sighed silently: "Let's go."
He has not even survived the thunder tribulation now, but has only half-stepped into the realm of thunder. With his level of cultivation, if he wants to trouble Li Yihan, what is the difference between that and committing suicide?
But what Dai Feng didn't expect was that the woman he was extremely afraid of had already fallen on this mountain range.
And the first person to know the news of Li Yihan's death was naturally the Li family.
In the palace of the Yuehua Dynasty, there was a hall similar to the Kunlun Shou Sheng Hall.
Li Family Ancestral Hall.
This is the place where important members of the Li family and family patriarchs and elders place their life candles.
There are four powerful cultivators stationed here all year round at the Li Family Ancestral Hall, responsible for taking care of these life candles. As long as there is a problem with the life candle, these people will spread the news as soon as possible, and then leave it to the head of the Li family to make a decision. Under normal circumstances, there is almost no chance of the life candle being extinguished. At most, some weird things will happen. texture, and this phenomenon means that the owner of the candle encountered some troubles and was seriously injured.
With the breath on the life candle, the Li family has a method to trace the breath to facilitate quick rescue.
This point is somewhat different from the method of Kunlun Shou Sheng Hall. Because if the life candle in the Kunlun Shou Sheng Hall is extinguished, the palace guard can extract the last recorded image of the life candle.??, so as to know the true identity of the person who killed the Kunlun disciples, and then take revenge.
Not long ago, Li Qiming's life candle suddenly went out. At that time, the entire Li family was shocked.
Originally, the head of the Li family had already mobilized efforts to investigate the matter thoroughly, but later, for some unknown reason, the matter was dropped. Only Li Qiming's father, Li Gang, was extremely angry. As for how he dealt with it later, It is not something that ordinary people can know.
At this time, a white-haired old man who was responsible for guarding the Li Clan Temple suddenly let out an exclamation!
"How can this be!"
After hearing the old man¡¯s words, the remaining three guards immediately turned their heads and looked around.
The next moment, everyone¡¯s expressions changed.
The life candle placed next to Li Qiming, which represents Li Yihan's life candle, has been extinguished at this moment!
Everyone¡¯s faces showed disbelief. One of the most outstanding disciples of the Li family, Li Gang¡¯s eldest daughter, Li Yihan, who had survived five thunder tribulations, actually died? The guardian was in disbelief and shock at the sudden news. At this moment, his brain completely lost the ability to think, and all that was left was a blank state of confusion. After a long time, the white-haired old man was the first to react and hurriedly knocked. The bell in the Li family ancestral hall rang.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of the Li family's disciples, elders, guests, Yuan Lai, and even the family heads of various branches and the emperor of the Yuehua Dynasty, everyone was stunned by the sudden ringing of the bell.
Because it rang once a few months ago, but now it rang again!
Everyone is silently counting the number of times the bell rings.
The number of times the bell rings represents the status of the person whose life candle is extinguished.
The highest is nine chimes and the lowest is one chime. When Li Qiming died that day, five chimes were sounded. This has been the most sensational event in the Li family in the past hundred years. But now, listening to the bell ringing for more than five times, the faces of many Li family disciples have become extremely ugly. The fifth ringing is one of the many disciples of the Li family who has the status of heir. This level is already considered the core level of the Li family.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: Basically, they are either the elders of the Li family, or extremely outstanding and important disciples of the Li family, or people with extremely noble status like Cang Hua.
When the bell stopped ringing at the seventh ring, the faces of the current head of the Li family, the emperor of the Yuehua Dynasty, also changed.
People at this level, no matter how low their status, are at least the status of an elder. The death of any external elder means that the Yuehua Li family has completely lost a power lurking in the dark, and if someone like Li Canghua and Li Yihan has status, status, or extremely strong strength, potential, and talent disciple, then the loss will be even greater!
When the current head of the Li family arrived at the Li family temple, he saw Li Gang who had rushed over first. But at this moment, Li Gang, who originally had a majestic and handsome face, was looking at the candle on the fate table with dull eyes. His black hair was all gray. The head of the Li family realized with a buzzing sound that it was just his He still didn't want to admit it in his heart, but when he saw that the flame on Li Yihan's life candle had been completely extinguished, his face turned red with anger.
"Didn't I warn you not to cause trouble for Lu Li?" Almost without probing, the head of the Li family knew what was going on. He let out an angry roar, "The message from Cang Hua Xin, didn¡¯t I let you read it? And you are very clear about the evaluation of Lu Li by the Family Council of Elders, but you actually let Yihan go find trouble for him?"
Li Gang didn't seem to hear his elder brother's voice at this moment. He just looked at the candle on the platform with dull eyes and said in a hollow voice: "They are all dead They are all dead"
He wanted to continue scolding him, but looking at Li Gang's appearance, the current head of the Li family couldn't say anything anymore. Li Gang's two sons and daughters are both rare geniuses in the Li family. Needless to say, Li Yihan will definitely have high achievements in the future. If she had not insisted on comprehending the world, she would have at least changed her destiny now; and Li Qi Fate, although his strength is not as high as that of his sister Li Yihan, and his talent and potential are also incomparable, but compared to other disciples of the Li family, he is already a rare genius, and entering the Pure Yang realm is by no means a problem.
But now, the two most outstanding disciples of the Li family have died at the hands of the same person!
But for the entire Li family, they only lost two extremely outstanding disciples, but for Li Gang, the situation is completely different, because these two siblings are both Li Gang's children! Perhaps thinking of the pain of being a father, the head of the Li family could not say any more scolding words. He just let out a heavy sigh and then rushed to the Li family temple.The elders, elders, and branch heads of the Li family who came here could only sigh when they saw the scene in front of them.
However, what the Li family does not know is that the Zhuo family in the Xuanyuan Dynasty is also playing out the scene in front of them.
Zhuoyuan's life candle was extinguished in front of a stick of incense.
And this also means that the future designated heir of the Zhuo family, Zhuo Yuan, has fallen!
Compared with the luxuriant branches of the Li family, the three most outstanding disciples of the younger generation of the Zhuo family have all died. This also means that in the future competition of the next generation, the Zhuo family will always be in a backward position and unable to succeed. Competing with other big families of the Xuanyuan Dynasty!
